#以太坊的未来

1. Technical Upgrades and Scalability Development

Ethereum has successfully transitioned from Proof of Work (PoW) to Proof of Stake (PoS). The next focus will be on 'Sharding' and 'Layer 2 Solutions', such as Optimism and Arbitrum, which can significantly increase transaction speed, reduce fees, and solve the past issues of 'congestion' and 'high costs'.

2. Dominance of Decentralized Applications (DApp) and Smart Contracts

Ethereum remains the preferred platform in fields such as DeFi, NFT, and GameFi. In the future, more physical industries (such as supply chain, finance, and insurance) are expected to adopt smart contracts, further expanding the application scope.

3. Regulations and Mainstream Adoption

Governments around the world are tightening regulations on cryptocurrencies, but this also means that more legitimate institutions will enter the market. If Ethereum can align with regulatory trends, it may become a part of the legitimate digital financial infrastructure.

4. Competition and Challenges

Emerging public chains like Solana, Avalanche, and Polkadot have risen, offering faster speeds and lower costs. However, Ethereum's active developer community and strong application foundation give it an advantage if it can continue to innovate.
