Vitalik Buterin mentioned at the Dromos Labs event that DeFi security in 2025 will be 'worlds apart' from 2019–2020, and that 'DeFi as a form of savings is now viable.' He emphasized that Ethereum and DeFi must adhere to core principles such as open source, open standards, interoperability, and censorship resistance, advocating for the 'walkaway test' to ensure users can withdraw their funds at any time. Vitalik pointed out that Ethereum's mainnet should serve as the liquidity hub, L1 gas limits should be increased, and scalability should be provided by L2. He also noted that although the total amount stolen in 2025 is higher than last year, it was primarily driven by a single large-scale incident, and overall security has improved.
