Ethereum network activity is sitting at all-time high levels.
While the price looks dead!
Daily active addresses are hovering near the network's highest range ever.
🔹 2018 peak: ~720K
🔹 2021 bull run: ~800K
🔹 2025-26: regularly pushing past 1M, peaks above 1.3M
The network is doing more real activity now than it did at the top of the last two bull markets.
And price is stuck near $1.9K.
In the first 72 hours, 2 researchers at @eigenlabs got 80% of the way to breaking Google’s classified quantum circuit
Then we opened it up
80+ solvers later, we are 40% ahead of Google. As a collective

In a few months profits will temporarily flow out of TradFi (cool off phase after IPOs).
People will want to know where to put their money because everything already went up so much.
And there Bitcoin will be, ready to begin the next four year cycle.
Introducing Claude Opus 4.8: it builds on Opus 4.7 with sharper judgment, more honesty about its own progress, and the ability to work independently for longer than its predecessors.
Available today at the same price.
I’ve been feeling impatient and disillusioned with Ethereum and saw @TrustlessState sold.
Figured I’d do some research and maybe start to exit myself.
After reviewing, I’m more optimistic than I’ve been in years and won’t be selling.
I think the problem is that Glamsterdam, native rollups, preconfs, lean Ethereum, etc. are super boring. We all want to see some flashy use cases we can see and touch, but Ethereum isn’t a consumer product. It’s not even typical internet infrastructure like (Stripe and AWS). It’s digital bedrock (like DNS and HTTPS).
CT reminds me of engineering demos where the non-technical audience would be more impressed with the junior dev’s flashy UI than the 100x backend engineer’s data pipelines.
The trilemma (secure, scalable, trustless) is solvable and Ethereum still seems to be the best positioned to do so. The “marketing” used to be WAY better and the vibes have fallen apart but I don’t think that matters all that much. I’d rather the devs focus on delivering the increasingly logical and achievable roadmap.
L2s were a mess and the “blockchain revolution” has been taking longer than anticipated but when is progress ever linear?
In the future when nation states, corporations and ai agents are digitizing identity, ownership records, permissions, and contracts, what’s going to underpin it? Siloed servers with fragile APIs and janky data normalization? Paper still?
I still think the “world computer” is IMMENSELY valuable and I still think Ethereum will be the bedrock that enables it. I plan to keep betting my ETH on it for now.
the most controversial sporting event in history starts tonight
the olympics of the bio-enhanced. Las Vegas.
monitoring the situation live from the bench.
what to expect:
- 40 elite athletes. no drug testing. full stacks.
- swimming, sprinting, weightlifting
- Fred Kerley in the 100m. Ben Proud and James Magnussen in the pool. Thor Bjornsson in the deadlift.
- $25M in prize money. $1M for any world record broken.
- Bryan Johnson on the broadcast explaining athlete protocols live
- WADA called it dangerous. the athletes came anyway
- closes with The Killers
every world record you have ever seen was set by someone holding back
tonight we find out what happens when nobody does

🚨 The banking cartel is in full panic mode. 🚨
While Americans were celebrating Mother’s Day with their families, the CEO of the American Bankers Association sent a frantic alert to every bank CEO in the country, demanding “immediate engagement” to lobby Senators and kill stablecoins that would finally let everyday Americans earn real yields on their own money.
This line in the letter sticks out: “we believe committee members may not be fully aware of the risks to the economy by the stablecoin loophole.” That’s both intellectually dishonest and simultaneously demeaning. First, there is no “loophole.” This entire issue was litigated during the GENIUS Act debate. @BillHagertyTN worked tirelessly on this issue and this statement is an insult to his and others work.
For decades, these banks have treated your deposits like their personal piggy bank, paying you next to nothing while lending YOUR money out for massive profits and executive bonuses.
During the Biden era, these same banks worked hand-in-glove with @SenWarren and her allies to debank Americans, including President Trump’s own family. They shut down accounts of conservatives, patriots, and anyone who dared challenge the regime, all while regulators applied pressure under schemes like Operation Choke Point 2.0. It wasn’t about risk. It was about political control.
Now that innovative stablecoins threaten to break their monopoly and give you actual financial freedom? They’re running to Congress again, screaming about “threats to economic growth and financial stability.”
Translation: Protect the racket at all costs.
The Senate Banking Committee votes on landmark crypto legislation this Thursday.
As a member of that committee, my message is clear:
Hands off the people’s money. Let Americans choose real competition and better returns. No more shielding Wall Street from the future. The banking elite’s days of rigging the system and debanking their political enemies are over. Innovation, freedom, and the American people will win.
I’m voting to break the cartel.
Maybe the CEO didn't get the message from the people actually in the room at the WH in meeting after meeting. We've already had "immediate engagement." You got "idle yield" killed. I know because I was there--you weren't.
Take yes for answer. Move on. Stop wasting the time of the Senate and the American people.
