In 2025, we'll no longer have to defend the very concept of an L2. We've won that battle. Instead, as more competitors seek to grow their own L2 ecosystems, we'll have to defend the Ethereum L1 as being the best home for all L2s. Which it is - by far. It's not even close.

There is 4.23 million ETH ($14 billion) bridged mostly into layer 2’s and some layer 1 networks. Almost all of this ETH isn’t being bridged over just to pay gas fees - it’s being used productively within the onchain economy. Grow ETHs network effect; grow ETHs value!

I’ve gotten 6-7 job offers from twitter, met probably 6,000 or so people if I had to guess, and am marrying a reply guy I met here. Don’t ever let anyone tell you the internet isn’t real life or that you shouldn’t take it seriously - the internet is a tool for creating reality

Capital that would have flooded into crypto and VC is sidelined, happily parked in 5% treasuries Despite the macro headwinds, ETH + BTC are *still* nearly at all-time highs! Rates cuts are nigh; the money printer is about to fire.

Unfortunately this info about Virgil is inaccurate - see my pinned tweet. Virgil is scheduled to be released to a halfway house in April 2025, but hopefully that will happen sooner. Free Virgil.

Someone please make a meme coin nft ai agent for UFO drones. I've yet to see one. Even Hawk Tuah got a coin. Given the safety threats to NJ, it's the only reasonable way to respond and fight back against the threat.

Ethereum's main strength has always been its ability to attract/nerd snipe the best and brightest people in the world. The layer 2/rollup-centric roadmap is extremely conductive to this because it attracts people to Ethereum who otherwise wouldn't of been interested in it.

It'd be huge for both Ethereum and Wyoming if their stablecoin launched on Ethereum. But for that to happen, we must participate in their vendor process. Eth orgs on the L1, Polygon, Arb, Base, or OP should take a look at submitting proposals ASAP.

Safenet is not just another L2. Instead, it is a virtual network that allows atomic transactions across any @safe , regardless of which chain they are on! A big step forward toward solving fragmentation.

Australia passed a ban on social media usage by anyone under 16 years old. In 2025, the government will test verification methods, and then will enforce age verification in 2026 and fine social media companies that don’t comply.

The last few weeks were serendipitous. From repelling into caves, to landing the first inclusion preconf on mainnet alongside 10+ other teams, to meeting hundreds of people across Ethereum; the future is clearly bright. Now back to shipping.
