Ethereum launches the "Trillion Dollar Security" plan 1TS, allowing everyone to safely deposit on-chain 1k, and institutions to deposit 1 trillion.

On May 14, 2025, the Ethereum Foundation announced a major initiative: the "Trillion Dollar Security" (1TS) initiative, aimed at significantly enhancing the security of the Ethereum blockchain. The ultimate goal of this initiative is to make Ethereum a reliable infrastructure for the global economy, supporting trillions of dollars in on-chain assets. The initiative was announced through the community platform X, emphasizing that the entire ecosystem will participate together to promote a comprehensive upgrade of the security architecture.

Ethereum Foundation: "We are ready to put the world on-chain"

The Ethereum Foundation issued a statement through its official X account: "We announce the One Trillion Security (1TS) program: a collective effort for the entire ecosystem aimed at upgrading the security of Ethereum, helping the world go on-chain." This post initiated a series of detailed explanations, elaborating on the vision, strategy, and leadership team of the program.

The foundation pointed out that although Ethereum is currently the most trusted smart contract platform in the world, future challenges require a higher level of security assurance. "Ethereum must surpass the security and trust standards of traditional systems in order to support civilization-level digital infrastructure."

Define "trillion-dollar security": Allowing each person to have one thousand on-chain, and institutions to deposit trillions.

The core idea of the 1TS project is to create a future where billions of people are willing to securely hold $1,000 on-chain, and institutions are willing to deposit $1 trillion in a single smart contract or application. This not only strengthens the technological aspect of Blockchain but also represents a commitment to the future development of the global digital economy.

This vision means that Ethereum must be able to support core application scenarios for personal savings, business operating funds, and even global financial infrastructure.

Three core strategies: from vulnerability scanning to secure communication

In order to achieve this grand goal, the 1TS plan will adopt three major action policies:

1. Comprehensive assessment of security strengths and weaknesses

The foundation will conduct a detailed analysis of the entire Ethereum technology stack to identify existing strengths and potential weaknesses. This inventory will cover aspects such as wallet user experience (UX), smart contract libraries, consensus mechanisms, cloud infrastructure, and will ultimately be compiled into a comprehensive security report.

2. Prioritize fixing critical vulnerabilities

According to the results of the security analysis, the foundation will address the most urgent and high-risk issues. This approach not only focuses on short-term emergency responses but also includes systematic upgrades to ensure that Ethereum can withstand potential new types of attacks in the future.

3. Establish transparent and secure awareness

Finally, the plan will focus on "making the world understand the security of Ethereum." Through easily understandable information disclosure and comparative indicators, it will help users, developers, and institutions understand the security architecture of Ethereum and make clear comparisons with other chains or traditional financial systems.

Team leadership and community involvement: Bringing together the strength of experts and developers.

This project led by the foundation will be headed by two core members: Fredrik Svantes (@fredriksvantes) and Stark (@0xstark). They will be joined by three key figures from the ecosystem as advisors:

Samczsun (@samczsun): Founder of SEAL organization

Zach Obront (@zachobront): Co-founder of Etherealize

Ethzed (@ethzed): Co-founder of Sigma Prime

The foundation emphasizes that this project relies on the participation of the entire community. They invite all Ethereum developers and related organizations to provide suggestions, which can be submitted via email (trilliondollarsecurity@ethereum.org) or through the official survey link.

The recent trillion-dollar security plan is clearly a response to past security incidents, including the notorious 2016 DAO hacking incident (which resulted in losses of over 60 million USD). According to a research report by ACM in 2020, Ethereum is exposed to unique security risks due to its support for decentralized applications (DApps).

The 1TS project is clearly aimed at addressing various vulnerabilities from wallet firmware, contract logic to infrastructure, establishing new standards for the entire blockchain world.

Ethereum's Vision for the Future: Building a New Cornerstone of the Global Economy

Mainstream media and opinion leaders have also been forwarding and analyzing this plan, predicting that it will become a turning point in the development of Ethereum.

For now, the Foundation has opened links to further information for interested developers and institutions to learn more.

With the accelerated development of the on-chain economy, Ethereum is moving towards a new era: not just a decentralized application platform, but also a digital lifeline supporting trillion-dollar assets.
