Why do so many people struggle to understand that ETH has more than one use case?
My timeline is filled with people who work in media that are hell-bent on the opinion that ETH is primarily a gas token.
ETH is a triple point asset - it's not that difficult to comprehend.

It's really cool to see that there is actually a very active and growing gaming community spawning out of the @arbitrum ecosystem.
L2s can provide *any* real-world community with hyper-efficient access to Ethereum's infinite garden.

One of the underrated superpowers of Ethereum L2s is that they are fully customizable and can be tailored towards the developer.
Why learn Solidity when you can just code in Rust, C++ or other languages that can be compiled down to WASM?
Ethereum "just works" with @arbitrum.

The state of @arbitrum heading into 2025:

Published my first blog post in a while:
Ethereum is at an inflection point, where blockspace is in abundance, and application developers are the scarce resource.
How can we ensure that *new* developers are willing to move onchain?
This post focuses on Stylus, a developer tool built by Arbitrum that meets traditional developers where they are.

In 2025, we will see many new traditional financial institutions follow BlackRock's lead, and migrate to Ethereum.
Ethereum is the most secure blockchain globally, and is home to the hardest, most decentralized and productive "money" in all of crypto.
The ticker is ETH.

My Ethereum wish for EOY 2025:
To see the top 5 L2s by TVL safely achieve Stage 2 levels of decentralization.
Both Arbitrum and Optimism have already achieved Stage 1, so we should expect them to achieve Stage 2 even sooner.

Both Base and Arbitrum are tremendous examples of the L2 bull thesis.
Instead of spinning up a new L1, and trying to bootstrap a whole new ecosystem, they simply tapped into Ethereum's existing onchain economy.
New L2s are 100x more efficient than new L1s.

Today, @ensdomains is arguably the most successful non-financial application that exists on Ethereum.
And now, with their very own L2, ENS will soon scale the most popular decentralized name service to billions of people around the world.
Here's everything we know so far 🧵

Ethereum L2s don't just scale Ethereum, but they also scale ETH the asset.
A lot of people tend to forget this, but ETH's use as a native SoV and "money," is by far the biggest driver of its value accrual.
L2s put ETH in the hands of more people.

ETF launches on the horizon.
L2s onboarding more users than ever before.
SEC drops it's investigation into whether ETH is a security.
TLDR - you're not bullish enough on Ethereum.

Ethereum's Layer 2 user base is tapping new ATHs.
Yeah, I'm feeling bullish.

Something that I am very much excited for this year is our Keystore wallet manager.
The TLDR is that Keystore assists users with the management of their signing keys and verification logic to help simplify the wallet experience between rollups.

If crypto is going to be the "future of finance," it needs to be built on the most reliable, battle-tested, and secure infrastructure.
Right now, Ethereum and it's fast maturing rollup ecosystem is the only network that is close to fitting this build.

You weren't ready for the ETH ETF approvals.
You still have a little time left before the ETFs actually go live.
Do with this information what you will.

There is over $44 Billion locked in Ethereum's Layer 2 ecosystem.
This time last year, total L2 TVL was hovering around $10 Billion.
What will this chart look like 10 years from now?

The most annoying FUD over the last 2+ years has been that rollups will never decentralize.
Progressive decentralization isn't a meme, and Optimism deploying their permissionless fault proof system is evidence of that.
Ignore the narrative spinners, and back the builders.

There are many reasons as to why ETH will win.
Most notably, though, it is the only ecosystem that has strived to guarantee its long term sustainability.
Not only is Ethereum and ETH sustainable, but it also upholds this whilst retaining maximal decentralization and security.

With many other ecosystems now pivoting towards modular scaling, it's important to remember that:
1. Ethereum did it first (despite relentless FUD)
2. L2s on Ethereum are more secure (superior settlement layer)
2. Ethereum is powered by ETH (the most productive asset in crypto)

I'm loving the new "costs" page listed on @l2beat.
Anyone can now use this resource to track how much each L2 protocol is paying Ethereum for security.

Ethereum's Layer 2 ecosystem is stronger than ever.
This is the first bull market in which the world will experience a fast, seamless, and cost-efficient Ethereum.
We are only just getting started 👊

L2s are the most sustainable solution to scalability, but their hidden superpower is their ability to progressively decentralize.
I'm looking forward to the day when we see the first L2 protocol successfully achieve stage 2 decentralization.
Ignore the FUD, and study @l2beat.

L2s will innovate and scale far quicker than any self-proclaimed "high TPS" L1 blockchain - especially now that we have EIP-4844.
By leveraging Ethereum for security and DA, L2s teams are able to put all of their focus into reducing cost, and increasing speed.

Imagine the smell of an ETH ETF approval when the entire market has already priced in a denial.
The beauty of this is that ETH is next in line for an ETF, regardless of whether it's approved by May 23rd, or early next year.

L2s are the endgame.
Here's a few reasons why:
- Extremely low fees (eventually $0) 📉
- The most desirable blockspace in crypto 📈
- Ethereum-level security (stage 2 decentralization) 🔒
- Powered by deflationary ETH (the most widely used 'money' in crypto) 🚀

Since EIP-4844 went live, L2s have reduced the cost of transacting on Ethereum by an order of magnitude.
Fees between Ethereum L2s, and alternative L1s are now completely negligible.
We are now in the era of modularity.

Institutions are choosing Ethereum because it has established itself as the backbone of the onchain economy.
It is also the most secure, reliable, and decentralized blockchain.
If you still don't understand why this makes ETH valuable, then I don't know what to tell you.

It is now confirmed that Ethereum's next protocol upgrade, Pectra, will include EIP-7251 (maxeb).
This EIP removes the 32 ETH cap for Ethereum validators, allowing node operators to consolidate their validators in order to reduce their overall bandwidth consumption.
