ERC-8004 is now live on mainnet.

5 months ago, we wrote the specs for the Trustless Agents standard.

Since then, over 10k agents registered on testnet.

Today, we’re releasing it on Ethereum Mainnet.

Welcome to the 8004 Genesis Month.

Here’s everything you need to know 👇

ZK is the HTTPS moment of crypto.

HTTPS took Web mainstream, by making it trustworthy and adding privacy.

ZK will do the same for Web3.

My 2025 predictions for Ethereum:

- ETH hits $15k
- ETH ETF net inflows hit $50bil+ for the year
- Staked ETH ETFs are filed for and approved
- More major TradFi companies/institutions start to build on Ethereum
- BlackRock (and partners) launch a layer 2 tokenized RWA platform on Ethereum
- Multiple nation states reveal that they hold ETH as a treasury asset
- Pectra will go live in March/April 2025 with more blobs and then soon after, blobs will be saturated again
- Fusaka (the upgrade after Pectra) scope blows out and becomes the biggest Ethereum upgrade ever (goes live in 2026)
- The mainnet gas limit will be increased to at least 50 million by end of year
- Ethereum DeFi thrives more than ever thanks to friendlier crypto regulations in the U.S
- Base spins out from Coinbase and announces token/decentralization plans
- High performant L2's like MegaETH, Rise and others launch and eat the high performant L1's lunch
- Arbitrum One becomes the first major rollup to reach stage 2 decentralization
- Many other rollups reach stage 1 decentralization
- A based rollup enters the top 5 as measured by TVL
- A major optimistic rollup becomes a zk rollup
- Total ETH bridged into L2's exceeds 10 million
- AI agents will stay the main meta for all of 2025

Ethereum will turn 10 years old in 2025 and I'm very confident that this year will be Ethereum's most bullish year yet!

Ethereum is the world computer; ETH is money.

ETHEREUM SURVIVES THE SEC.

Today we’re happy to announce a major win for Ethereum developers, technology providers, and industry participants: the Enforcement Division of the SEC has notified us that it is closing its investigation into Ethereum 2.0.

This means that the SEC will not bring charges alleging that sales of ETH are securities transactions.

We just passed $1 billion in tokenized treasuries onchain.

BlackRock tokenized treasurities just launched last week.

I expect $10 billion in tokenized treasuries by year end.

Every asset is a token.

Every bank is a chain.

[IOTA @iota]

🙌 Exciting news: our #EVM L2 has successfully passed the thorough audit by @zokyo_io. One of the final (and most important) steps to prepare the #IOTAEVM launch! Read it in full⤵️

Ethereum successfully upgraded.

Ethereum L2's just 5x'ed their bandwidth.

Out of the 1990s into the 2000s.

Welcome to broadband.

Today, we’re unveiling a new stablecoin, PayPal USD (PYUSD). It’s designed for payments and is backed by highly liquid and secure assets. Starting today and rolling out in the next few weeks, you’ll be able to buy, sell, hold and transfer PYUSD. Learn more https://t.co/53RRBhmNHx

[AdrianoFeria.eth 🦇🔊 🛡️ @AdrianoFeria]

Coinbase, Visa and PayPal are using #Ethereum to deploy stablecoins and new payment systems.

They didn't choose BTC's Lightning Network or any of the "faster and cheaper" L1 networks.

This is where reality separates from narratives, and markets will take note of it.
