$ETH isn't trying to compute everything onchain anymore. The endgame? Base layer becomes pure verification, ordering, and settlement—while execution spreads across L2s, rollups, and modular infra.

This isn't new. The vision was there 10+ years ago. Most just didn't get it.

Ethereum wins by being the trust anchor, not the execution engine. Verify everything. Execute selectively. Settlement stays sacred.

That's the play.
