[Ethereum Foundation and Vitalik Buterin Release 'Trustless Manifesto' and Deploy It On-Chain]
The Ethereum Foundation announced via the X platform that the account abstraction team, together with Vitalik Buterin, has released the 'Trustless Manifesto' and stored it as an on-chain contract. The manifesto outlines core values such as trust neutrality, self-custody, and verifiability, while opposing centralized models of 'convenience.' The contract has no owner or administrator, and its text cannot be modified. The only operation available is pledge(), which records the address and timestamp upon invocation and triggers the Pledged(address, timestamp) event. This operation only consumes Gas fees and has no incentive mechanism, aiming to emphasize the importance of user-authorized actions and uphold Ethereum's commitment to trustlessness.
