PANews May 14 news, Grant Hummer, co-founder of the Ethereum ecosystem marketing company Etherealize, stated that Bitcoin's prospects are concerning due to its security budget issues. Currently, launching a 51% attack on Bitcoin requires only $8 billion; if it drops to $2 billion (which is 0.1% of Bitcoin's market value), an attack is almost certain to occur, and this will become evident in the next decade. In contrast, Ethereum, with its true decentralization, is likely to become the default consensus point for internet value storage. Hummer also mentioned that after communicating with traditional financial executives, it was found that achieving millions of TPS (transactions per second) on a single global state machine is impossible, but is entirely feasible through Ethereum's neutral settlement layer and high-speed L2 networks. He emphasized that the stability and maturity of decentralized financial infrastructure far exceed short-term performance improvements, especially in the wave of real-world asset (RWA) tokenization — currently, 85% of RWAs and most stablecoins have chosen Ethereum. In response to criticisms that 'Ethereum is trying to do too much,' Hummer countered that it is no different from questioning the multi-functional capabilities of Windows or the Internet. He believes that Ethereum is becoming the cornerstone of the global financial system, with its security, decentralization, and ecological diversity being key factors attracting large-scale institutional adoption.
