🎂 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.

I like ethereum It has managed to capture my attention for nearly a decade. I suspect it'll easily do so for another Thank you to everyone that has worked on the machine that is the sum of ethereum and everything built upon it

Big changes are coming to @EthereumFndn’s ecosystem development cluster to support real-world adoption. Here’s what’s changing and why it matters🧵

☠️ Starting from today and for the next 5 months, I will take you down memory lane to relive one "Ethereum is dead" post per day.☠️ See you at the end of this series, above ETH ATH!

I've fallen down the privacy rabbit hole. I could really use a hand Come help!

ETH vs BTC The choice is simple

Lot's of fun and challenging stuff to tackle Come work with me :)

0. Announcing the Trillion Dollar Security (1TS) initiative: an ecosystem-wide effort to upgrade Ethereum’s security to help bring the world onchain.

Great work on Pectra, everyone :)

Lighthouse Team on Fulu 🧵👇 Fulu is all about PeerDAS (EIP-7594)—the heart of this fork. Given its complexity, let's keep the scope tight and focused on PeerDAS.
