Ethereum is facing an existential crisis, let’s put aside all and just help promote culture on it. Degen or whatever. I know many devs are purists, but I will lick the floor and grovel if it means saving Ethereum from getting vampired. Culture, price, utility are reflexive.

I don't know about an existential crisis. Definitely could use better outreach to communicate its strengths (of which there are many) and develop a positive narrative. A few more L2s pushing the boundaries of scaling will seal the deal by cutting off the only purported advantage of other smart contract chains.
