Ethereum R1

is a new rollup project grounded in the core values of Ethereum:

  • 100% donation-funded
    No token. No VC. No private sales. Just public ETH contributions. * Donate Now
  • Stage 2 from day one
    Permissionless proving. Transparent upgrade path. Long upgrade delays.
  • Ethereum public good
    Proportion of base fees go to R&D and app dev until 2030 — then they’re burned.
  • Replaceable by design
    No proprietary governance. No brand lock-in. No personalities to worship.

Join the movement — open call to:

  • Developers
    Build a credibly neutral rollup — no gatekeepers.
  • App teams
    Deploy to a censorship-resistant home.
  • ETH holders
    Fund Ethereum public goods, not extraction schemes.

Together, we build a rollup that belongs to Ethereum — not a foundation, not insiders, not even us.
