Just arrived in Davos for @WEF. Three main goals this week:

1) Talk to world leaders about economic freedom and how crypto can update their financial systems

The future of finance is here, and this time it's built for the people.

The Ethereum whitepaper was published 12 years ago today.

Ethereum changed the course of crypto by giving builders greater tools - including a Turing complete language!

Shoutout to @VitalikButerin, the Ethereum co-founders, and the entire Ethereum community. So many of the products responsible for where our industry is today wouldn’t have happened without your vision.

[ETHGlobal @ETHGlobal]

We've seen an unprecedented rate of new developers joining Ethereum hackathons this year.

70% of attendees to our events in 2025 joined us for the first time.

From submitted projects, we saw 2,500+ distinct new builders ship their first Ethereum project with us in 2025! 🚀

As the saying goes…

“First they ignore you.
Then they laugh at you.
Then they fight you.
Then they add you to the S&P 500.”

…or something like that.

I applaud @realDonaldTrump for his recent Executive Order to eliminate unnecessary waste of taxpayer dollars and leverage the power of the private sector in government contracting.

Previous administrations abused the Federal contracting framework by wasting time and money building government products instead of integrating proven commercial solutions. The government then gave preference to its own inferior products, which led to increased fraud, waste, and abuse.

If we unleash the power of the private sector to fight challenges like deepfakes and AI-driven fraud, we will better protect the American taxpayer. Government-built technology solutions rarely work. Just visit a DMV!

America is best when government partners with the best of the private sector and unleashes the free market to serve Americans. 🇺🇸
