There's significant interest in Ethereum (ETH) from institutional investors, with Tom Lee aiming to acquire X% of all ETH, and Fundstrat planning to buy at least $XX billion worth. Ethereum is being considered as a potential store of value and reserve asset, with some analysts believing it could flip Bitcoin in terms of network value. The ecosystem is also seeing growth in Layer X solutions, decentralized finance (DeFi), and stablecoin adoption, with various companies and investors making significant moves in the space.

"It's becoming increasingly obvious to me that Ethereum is doing something different than any other chain. Ethereum is transforming into a zk chain. L1 will run global DeFi: - Big blocks (10k TPS) - Nodes that run on a phone L2s will run everything else: - General purpose L2s like Base/Arb - Appchain L2s like Lighter (e.g. perps app) No other chain is executing on this strategy - using zk for max scale and decentralization - no shortcuts. Bitcoin ossified with 1st generation cryptography. Ethereum is upgrading to 2nd generation cryptography. Other chains are scaling with nodes that need to run"

"I'm afraid my co-host @TrustlessState's end of year call of $7k ETH is not bullish enough. But I think it's also representative of ETH ptsd we all have - it's hard to remember what an ETH pump feels like. So $7k feels bullish. I'm not saying David is wrong btw - maybe he's right - but i want to give another scenario for you to ponder. A scenario that seems crazy but I actually think is almost as probable as David's. $15k ETH by end of year. $30k ETH or more this cycle. From 2018 to 2020 ETH was range bound from $XXX to $XXX.

"deeper liquidity stronger property rights greater security max censorship resistance async comparability its more expensive but more premium blockspace makes it better for high stakes defi and long term store of value also its good for ETH value accrual as all fees go to ETH stakers and ETH is the always first class currency its always been an ideal way to scale *if* you can keep node requirements low enough to keep the network decentralized with zk cryptography this is now becoming possible L1 can scale to 10k tps L2s can scale to 100k tps"

"your privacy arc has been nice to see as we've seen with Tornado Cash court cases winning financial privacy is going to be a jurisdiction by jurisdiction fight with nation states it's also going to require max decentralization of any chain Ethereum has been the most tested on censorship given it has an autonomous onchain privacy protocol in tornado cash and OFAC sanctioned smart contracts and addresses it's managed the preserve censorship resistance despite this the upcoming changes like FOCIL will further harden the network to censorship i'd argue the CR of Ethereum post FOCIL will far"

"Base is generating something like $180m a year run rate in revenue as an L2 on Ethereum. They are Ethereum aligned - they contribute to the ecosystem and EVM - that's great. They're also ETH aligned. Coinbase owns $340m worth of ETH - that's 136k ETH. That said their crypto portfolio is skewed XX% BTC and XX% ETH right now. Why not rebalance to 50%/50% Build on Ethereum. Own ETH. Ethereum alignment and ETH alignment"

"Before 2022 when real 10yr treasury yields rates went down gold went up. Something changed in 2022. Since 2022 rates up gold up up up. In 2022 Russian launched an invasion of Ukraine and the U.S. used unprecedented sanctioning power to freeze over $XXX billion in Russian owned U.S. Treasuries. These things are related. When you undermine property rights neutrality you lose your position as global reserve asset. No one wants to hold an asset that can be insta-deleted by the U.S"

"Ethereum is winning the war for real world assets and nothing is close. I just looked at the numbers and oh my god. Two things to establish. First RWAs are a network effect game. Liquidity begets liquidity. Institutions go where there's liquidity. Power laws win. Second the network effect game is three fold. There's a good better best for Ethereum network effects. Good = Ethereum virtual machine (EVM) Better = Ethereum L2 Best = Ethereum L1 Ok. Let's go category by category on RWAs. Stablecoins. Ethereum has almost $XXX billion of stablecoins on its L1 that's XX% of all stablecoins - already"
