Investing real money in R&D, Protocol Guild is paving the subway to spring for Ethereum!
Key message in plain language: Protocol Guild, the 'exclusive supply station' for Ethereum core developers, has launched a major initiative, committing to distribute over $37 million worth of ETH or tokens over the next four years directly to the developers who are dedicated to pushing Ethereum upgrades!
This investment is worthwhile and comes at the right time! We often focus on daily price fluctuations while overlooking a fundamental truth: the foundation of coin prices is built on technology! Look at past lessons: some major projects engage in 'hype-driven development'; once the funding chain breaks, the team falls apart, and the coin price plummets to zero. In contrast, Ethereum requires top developers to tackle challenges tirelessly for years with every significant upgrade, from the merge to Dank Sharding. These engineers can command sky-high salaries in Web2; why would they stay in this unpredictable crypto world? Just for love? Protocol Guild's hefty investment sends a clear message to the market: the 'flame' of top engineers cannot be extinguished! Locking in core talent with real money is essential to preserve the ecological moat.
Earlier this year, with a major restructuring at ConsenSys, the Layer 2 core development team even faced dissolution risks, raising concerns in the market. Moreover, last year, Vitalik Buterin donated a substantial amount of ETH to fund ecological projects, underscoring that top talent and sustainable funding are critical to ecological development. Protocol Guild effectively provides a four-year 'talent insurance + R&D fuel package' for the entire Ethereum tech stack!
While others are still fantasizing about hundredfold air coins, smart money is betting on foundational infrastructure. This $37 million 'developer ammunition' is Ethereum's strongest backing. Do you want to know which technical upgrades will benefit from this windfall?
