I'll probably be around less for the next ~month. Traveling

Great season everyone

Ethereum and ETH are now on the best trajectory since 2021

The best is yet to come

Coinbase and Tether build their futures on eth (and tron, for tether), while mostly promoting and investing in BTC instead of ETH

The public *might* follow their lead to buy BTC

But institutions *must* follow their lead to build on ethereum

Fascinating

"We are enabling millions of Coinbase [CEX] users to trade dexes on Base"
- Coinbase exec just now

So the main custodial coinbase account will be the ethereum wallet

Bears in disbelief 😂🫵

In the coinbase livestream today, we've heard many words like "EIP" and "Base L2"

But not sure they've said "ethereum"

Remarkable how CB and Tether run on eth but often go out of their way not to mention it

Onchain growing too fast - avoiding saying "ethereum" is unsustainable

"There's going to be a 1% cash back reward for anybody who pays in USDC [on Base on Ethereum]"
- CEO of Coinbase just now

Whole new categories of onchain bears chewed up today

Crypto payment bears said that onchain was stupid because transactions aren't reversible and don't support high level flows

We told them those high level flows would eventually just be coded onchain

Coinbase and Shopify launching that today on Base on Eth

Bears 😂🫵

"Mēs esam šeit. Tagad viss saliekas kopā."
- Shopify izpilddirektors rn runā ar Coinbase izpilddirektoru par USDC e-komercijas maksājumiem uz Base L2 uz Eth

Lāči neizpratnē

Šīs nedēļas, kad notiek desmitgades, notiek tieši tagad.

Iepriekšējā administrācija dramatiski apspiež onchain izaugsmi. Pieprasījums ir saritinājies kā atsperes. Tagad atbrīvots. Rītdiena būs neticama.

Nekad nav bijis svarīgāks laiks būt piesprādzētam.

Milzīgi lepni par mums. Labākais vēl ir priekšā. Ticker ir ETH

Kā tas sākās Kā tas notiek

I'm 90%+ ETH, but another project I'm very excited about is World Coin

imo you won't find a token other than WLD (besides ETH) with such an incredible medium/long term setup
- exposure to sama and a possible future openai integration
- 12M verified users (orb eyeball scan; private by default stack using zk, non-custodial)
- 27M total users
- orb factory coming online in Texas. They plan to have more orbs in just America by end of year as they had lifetime internationally so far. "Signup within a 10-minute drive for all Americans"
- orb mini, a phone-sized device to let people onboard communities as a small business
- world superapp's mini app store hypergrowing. mini apps opened 29M times last week
- tinder and razer gaming joined last month as customers for proof of humanity. payment for this service is in WLD. amazingly, these customers also drive demand for World signups. everybody needs proof of humanity and wants their customers to get it. flywheel
- a16z and Bain invested ~$135M in a market price purchase of WLD a couple weeks ago
- current fdv is less than 4% of eth. but world will grow to hundreds of millions and then billions of users, and have huge global demand for proof of humanity as a service. the world mini app crypto native economy is going to be the largest globally by verified users (is already afaik)
- an underappreciated thing about wld unlocks is a huge % of the fdv is earmarked for future human onboarding (~40% fdv), so the token only fully dilutes as the network succeeds massively, unique in industry
- downward PA for WLD this cycle being reversed in fundamentals. World Chain is only 7 months old. Mini apps even younger. Hence a16z timing

I'm not going to bullpost WLD too often. Growth and PA will speak for itself. But if you're a patient holder, now's the time to start a DCA.

Advocating for your own token is a superpower

Look how far ghost chains get on token hype alone. XRP, ADA are trash-grade L1s with a combined fdv of $257B

ETH has begun to tell its own story, few understand how big an impact this will have

Viens no maniem iecienītākajiem izaugsmes rādītājiem ir RWAs, izņemot t-bills. Augšup +48% gada griezumā uz eth L1

Ethereum veido plašu un dziļu onchain ekonomiku

Vivek from Etherealize is testifying to Congress next week

Also testifying are Uniswap's Chief Legal Officer, a Former CFTC Chairman, and a Former SEC Commissioner

Probably something

Eth uzmanība uz decentralizāciju mērķē uz 0.01% sliktākajiem gadījumiem, kas cerams nekad nenotiks

Reālas briesmas institūcijām ietver karu, 0-dienu kļūdas, valsts piespiešanu un alternatīvo L1, kas sadarbojas ar saviem konkurentiem. Ne reti sastopama secību dīkstāve

Ethereum L1+L2 minimizē reālas briesmas

Thanks to the GENIUS Act, stablecoins are about to explode

That's amazing for Ethereum's 65% market share

Lots of opportunity for distribution synergies across eth's L2s

A fun experiment could be to try and ship a World mini app that's just the entire Base mini app store, and vice versa - that'd be a mini app store inside a mini app store inside a Google/Android app store app 😂🤠

Was talking to gpt about the emerging trend of "RWA L1s" and it dropped this banger

> Ultimately, these "RWA L1s" are often just distribution strategies disguised as tech differentiation. They're trying to recreate trust, liquidity, and regulation in their image—when those things already exist more robustly on Ethereum.

By ~2032, BTC risks highly profitable 51% attacks due to a collapsing security budget.

Only known realistic fix is tail inflation, breaking the 21M promise.

Wild that most Bitcoiners pretend this terrible choice of "catastrophic 51% attacks OR break 21M cap" doesn't exist.

Tagad ir 2 ASV publiskās kompānijas ar savu Eth L2

Coinbase un Robinhood

Apsveicam, Robinhood, ar WonderFi iegādi un viņu Eth L2!

Šī tendence tikai sākas. ETH
