Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin praised Bitcoin developers for Utreexo, inspiring Ethereum's research into a hybrid state scaling framework combining UTXO-style and account-based models. Researcher Toni Wahrstätter proposed a native UTXO system that could reduce Ethereum's payment state size by about 99.8%, targeting simple, single-use payments without full smart contract state storage. This approach relies on EIP-8141 Frame Transactions, under consideration for Ethereum's 2027 Hegotá upgrade. Buterin also introduced a recursive-STARK mempool concept to manage proof bandwidth, though it does not guarantee unlimited transaction capacity. These ideas remain theoretical and under active development, signaling a potential future scaling path rather than immediate protocol changes.
