Stage 1 represents a critical shift towards a fully secure, unified Ethereum scaling solution. Interop builds atop this foundation, opening doors to global adoption and innovation. Congrats to Base, OP Labs, Unichain, Ink, and all the Superchain teams involved. The future of

One of Ethereum's biggest issues is that we often let the detractors/bears set our narratives for us and essentially alter perceptions around what the reality actually is. Take the recent narrative that Ethereum has somehow "pivoted" to scaling/improving the L1 when in reality,

Right now Michael Saylor + MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin stake is arguably the largest concentrated position in any globally traded asset by a private company or individual. Not a fan tbh.

hot take: crypto taught builders to optimize for grants and hackathons, not users and now everyone’s surprised there's nothing people actually want to use
