🎉 - 10 Years of @ethereum: The World Computer That Changed Everything Exactly one decade ago, Ethereum’s mainnet launched—and the world of trust, finance, and ownership would never be the same. From Vitalik Buterin’s whitepaper to powering $4T+ in economic activity. During the interview for our documentary film @VitalikButerin shared: "When I first started the project, the first thought that I had was that this was just a fairly small thing, I would get it done within a few months and it would exist and people could benefit from it and then I would go back to university. It actually took me until Bitcoin Miami in January 2014, where I saw just the sheer scale of interest in the project that I realized that this would actually be bigger and that I'm staying out of university for a long time". 🔥 Ethereum by the Numbers - 250M+ unique addresses (growing by 1M/week!) - 24M daily transactions across L1/L2 chains - 90% of ETH holders in profit as price nears $4,000 - 100% uptime over 10 years—through wars, pandemics, and market cycles 🏦 Institutional Adoption Hits Overdrive Ethereum isn’t just for rebels anymore: - Spot ETH ETFs drew $5B+ in 16 days —outpacing Bitcoin’s early demand . - JPMorganChase, Citi and The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) now run tokenized asset platforms on Hyperledger Besu (Ethereum’s enterprise client) . - Central banks in Brazil, Singapore, and Norway use Ethereum for digital currencies. ⚙️ The Engine of Web3’s Future Ethereum’s real genius?
