Back then, saying Ethereum would reshape global finance sounded like a joke.

Now, it’s the foundation trillions in value, institutions onboard, and $ETH itself evolving into a yield-bearing reserve asset.

Ethereans saw it early because the roadmap was inevitable:

Scaling solved → Rollups transformed bottlenecks into throughput.

Reliability proven → Nearly 10 years of nonstop uptime.

Low-cost transactions → Moving value worldwide now costs cents, not dollars.

Tokenization wave → From stablecoins to RWAs to treasuries, everything is on-chain.

Adoption at scale → Startups, Fortune 500s, and even governments build on ETH.

Decentralization prized → Ethereum stands as the neutral settlement layer for the internet of value.

Staked ETH recognized → Institutions treat it as productive, collateralized capital.

These weren’t wild guesses. They were unavoidable truths in motion.

And they’re still compounding. 🌍✨
