it’s great to see ethereum scaling L1 - this is a win for the entire ecosystem.
going forward, L2s can’t just be “ethereum but cheaper.” that's why from the beginning of base we've shown up everyday to onboard new users, developers, and apps, push the technology forward, and do it all in a symbiotic way that grows the entire ecosystem.
we’ve benefited deeply from building with ethereum - by leveraging its security and infrastructure, we've been able to focus: on building the best products and unlocking new real use cases across trading, social, gaming, creators, predictions, and so much more. We reached stage 1 last year and are accelerating towards solving the technical complexities of safely reaching stage 2.
base is going to keep driving hard towards our mission: building a global economy that increases innovation, creativity, and freedom. to do that, we're already leaning into the kind of differentiation vitalik is talking about here, and have been supported by the EF in doing so: building the best apps, native account abstraction, privacy, scaling, and more.
excited to work with ethereum to build the onchain future we all believe in.
@JustDeauIt You’re assuming they would willingly attack their own business.
Governments, terrorists or kidnapping family of pool operators could force their hand.
The point of decentralization is to eliminate the possibility not pray that centralized parties act on your best interest.
BREAKING: 🚨
ETH treasury firm Fundamental Global Inc (FG Nexus) just filed to raise up to $5 BILLION —
💰 $4B via ATM facility
💸 To buy Ethereum
Still think you’re bullish?
You’re not bullish enough.
Institutions are preparing for the great ETH supply squeeze.
🧠 Think bigger.
🎂 Ethereum turns 10:
A decade ago, it launched with a bold idea: general-purpose smart contracts on a credibly neutral, permissionless base layer.
Since then, it has become the settlement layer for stablecoins, DeFi, tokenized assets, and more.
Here’s what it’s built—and what’s next:
2015–2025: Key Achievements:
• EVM & Solidity (2015): Programmable contracts, ERC-20, the ICO era
• Byzantium (2017): First major step towards PoS roadmap
• EIP-1559 (2021): Fee burn + deflation
• The Merge (2022): Proof-of-Stake, -99.99% energy use
• Shanghai (2023): Staking withdrawals, validator maturity
• Pectra (2025): Numerous improvements, L2 scalability
Scaling the Ethereum Economy:
• Dencun + EIP-4844 (2024): Proto-danksharding. Rollup data costs down 10–30×+.
• Rollups surpass L1 in volume (2025): The rollup-centric roadmap realized
• EigenLayer (2024): ETH restaking extends security to oracles, bridges, and more
• ETH ecosystem TPS grew from ~50 at the start of 2024 to over 200 today.
Real-World Assets Come On-Chain:
• Ethereum’s RWA value has grown from ~$1B at the start of 2023 to almost $10B today.
• BlackRock BUIDL:
$2.9B tokenized MMF on Ethereum
• JPM Onyx, Goldman, Fidelity:
Tokenizing deposits, MMFs, and bonds on EVM rails
Stablecoins are Ethereum’s killer app:
• $150B+ in total supply
• ~60% of all stablecoins reside on Ethereum and its L2s
Ethereum is the backbone for tokenized dollars.
What’s Still to Come:
• Full Danksharding: Sub-cent rollup costs at scale
• Single-Slot Finality (SSF): Finality in ~12s
• Enshrined Account Abstraction: Smart wallets, passkeys, session keys
• Statelessness: Light clients on mobile
• zkPrivacy: Selective disclosure
• Post-quantum signatures: Long-term resilience
Onboarding the World:
• Ethereum is building for global scale
• Cheap L2s + shared sequencers → 100k TPS
• BlackRock, JPM, and PayPal choose Ethereum for real-world finance
• EIP-4337 + attestations → self-custodied compliance
• Stateless clients → inclusion for the 1.4B unbanked
Ethereum is not a finished product. It's a continuously evolving ecosystem.
From credible neutrality to programmable finance, from NFTs to sovereign rollups—Ethereum is slowly becoming the settlement layer of civilization.
The next 10 years will bring:
• Sub-second, sub-cent transactions
• Tokenized markets on public rails
• Embedded compliance via smart wallets
• Shared security as infrastructure
• Billions of users self-custodying assets on phones
Etherealize is honored to be part of Ethereum’s journey.
We’ll spend the next decade helping institutions, nations, and everyday users enter the Ethereum economy—from Wall Street to the unbanked.
ETH is the settlement layer of the digital era.
Onward.
🚨 Ethereum is becoming the global economy.
• Fidelity calls ETH a sovereign digital system
• Layer 2s now doing 400+ TPS
• ETH will be trustless collateral for $100T+ in assets
• Demand is rising. Supply is locked.
• ETH isn’t a tech stock — it’s economic infrastructure.
