TBH I feel somewhat more optimistic when everyone else is feeling pessimistic.

It’s like the gang is finally ready to get off their asses and do some hard shit together

The second I see Ethereum praise and support new apps to the same degree as we see new rollups, I'll know the depression is over

I’m optimistic there. Ethearalize or whatever the thing Danny and Zach are doing is called seems promising.

I listened to that entire podcast and yeah I think that's going to do wonders from the institutional set, we were really missing that voice in those spaces

The problem remains though, part of Ethereum's value prop as the "foundation of a digital economy" is to support a thriving ecosystem of user-owned apps, where DeFi can synergistically help them access growth capital and build massive network value over time

Ethereum needs to solve the app problem next, its not just an institutional chain
