Ethereum, the blockchain platform launched in 2015, celebrated its 10th anniversary in late July and early August 2025. Over the decade, Ethereum has evolved from a scrappy experiment into a critical infrastructure component for Wall Street and the broader digital economy. It is widely recognized as the backbone for digital money, assets, and art, supporting a robust ecosystem of decentralized applications. Recent milestones include the deployment of EigenLayer V2 on the mainnet, which offers a data availability layer with throughput exceeding 100 megabytes per second—surpassing Visa's capacity by 12.8 times. The Ethereum ecosystem, including its layer 1 and layer 2 solutions, recently recorded over 26 million daily transactions, reflecting its growing adoption. Industry observers suggest that Ethereum's value lies not only in its technology but also in its role as a lifeline for real-world problem solving, with calls for enhanced public relations to broaden its reach beyond the crypto community.
