🖥️ The computer gives value to the money.
🪙 The money gives security to the computer.

Without Ethereum, there would be no value for ETH. Without ETH, there would be no economic security for Ethereum. Two distinct, symbiotic components.

#4
Efforts to harden the computer are steadily growing.
@ethereumfndn employs 40+ researchers
@protocolguild funds 180+ core devs
The EVM depends on this critical support.

Meanwhile, few parallel efforts exist to bolster & support the money that secures our collective computer.

#5
Supporting ETH begins with educating about Ethereum. It looks like:

Educational content from @sassal.eth's TDG, @bankless and others

@etherealizeio making the institutional pitch for Ethereum

@growthepie data visualization tools

Crafting concise memes like #ETHisMoney

#6
Supporting ETH means coordinating efforts like these and rallying the social layer. This is where Ether Guild comes in.

Ether Guild is a group of hyper-focused ETH supporters, working to elevate ETH, the money, in service of Ethereum, the computer.

#7
On the spectrum of shape between community and institution, Ether Guild is a collective, community initiative,
On the spectrum of focus between the computer and the money, Ether Guild’s attention is fixed on supporting ETH.

EG achieves this through efforts called Quests.

#8
Quests are an opportunity for the Ethereum community to signal and aid through fine-grained, direct funding and achieve shared goals that support ETH.

Quests will take various shapes and sizes, but all will fund initiatives supporting ETH.

#9
Ether Guild’s first quest was to create a dashboard articulating why ETH is money using data collated beautifully by the @growthepie team.

Stay tuned for new quests. 👀

#10
As a US-based nonprofit applying for 501(c)(3) status, Ether Guild relies on donations and grants. A legally transparent org + financially transparent rails builds legitimacy and trust.

🤝 It also allows EG to offer tax-deductible donation benefits to US donors.

#11
The Guild treasury will be managed by the community:

@rsa.eth of @bankless 
@sassal.eth of The Daily Gwei
@tobsch of @growthepie 
@gphummer of @etherealizeio 
@its_everdred of metal.build

will ensure every wei received goes toward funding ETH initiatives.

#12
Ether Guild is looking for partners in our mission to support ETH.
Stay tuned for our first crowdfunding effort to become a guild member:
