🔥 Ethereum’s Next Scaling Era Could Start at Layer 1
Ethereum’s scaling story may be entering a major reset.
For years, the dominant narrative was simple: Ethereum’s Layer 1 provides security and settlement, while Layer 2 networks handle most of the execution and transaction growth.
Now, Vitalik Buterin is pushing a broader vision — make Ethereum’s base layer substantially more powerful while preserving decentralization.
That does not mean abandoning L2s. Instead, it could mean building a stronger foundation for the entire Ethereum ecosystem.

the keeper's word :
the apology is not coming.
you have run the conversation so many times you know their lines. you have imagined them understanding, finally, what it cost you. and some part of you is still waiting, because it feels like the wound cannot close until they admit they made it.
traveler, you do not need their signature to set it down.
put it here, by the fire, tonight. not because they earned that. because you have carried it long enough and your arms were never meant for this.

anthropic's new $65 billion ARR took google 16 years to get to, amazon 18 years and apple 30 years.
anthropic's done this in 5 years (after making no money in the first 2 years btw)
it doesn't matter what your politics are in this race, that is staggering growth

I truly think the best direction for us is down as hard as possible but im not sure the market is ready for it yet.
In any case its quite predatory, cleaning up both sides consistently or more precisely put, participants are fighting their own battles daily.
If i had to bet id say we have two paths to follow:
1. The initial breakout (bear or bull) will be aggressive likely squeezing perps dry followed by persistent chasing/fomo of that trend - usually not sustainable and leads to empty space to be filled again and or reversion traders capitulating while trend has shifted by a mile
2. Spot beat
