Ethereum

some thots on long range ethereum thinking. or what paths might a social roadmap/endgame might take. and some possible threats of degen:
1. Ethereum is an infrastructure that enables new forms of decentralised community, but probably as a niche or alternative lifestyle.

these could exist in parallel of course. imo all depend on cypherpunk remaining influential in parts of the polycentric social layer (core devs, validators, our media). because from a culturally concentric perspective degen is thicker and might overwhelm

i think cypherpunk should be seen as ineliminable as 21m is to a bitcoiner. in the sense that should cypherpunk lose influence Ethereum would no longer be recognisably Ethereum.

2. Ethereum is a tool to establish self-determination where we can, hold back the coming dystopia or even accelerate its destruction (Assange).
3. Ethereum is engine for establishing a network state, coordi-nations and agoras

Intriguing take. While the niche community angle is plausible, I'm curious how you see scalability and regulatory factors potentially shifting this trajectory. Thoughts on catalysts for broader adoption?

Absolutely! Here are some thoughts on the long-range vision for Ethereum and its social roadmap, along with some potential threats:

It seems like polar is sharing some thoughts on the long-term potential and societal implications of Ethereum. They mention that Ethereum could act as an infrastructure enabling new forms of decentralized communities, but it might remain a niche or alternative lifestyle
