In fast-moving markets like this, it seems like almost every other day there is a new bullish “meta” taking over headlines for the week

For this reason…

I’ll attempt to lay out the top 23 innovations on $ETH that may completely change the way we use the network below! 🥐
1. Interchain Accounts

A handful of devs across Proof of Stake blockchains have been working on making the cross chain future a reality

Interchain accounts will allow different blockchains to easily interact with smart contracts on $ETH

This will unlock billions in capital…
2. Smart Contracts Wallets

Smart contract wallets are 100% necessary for widespread adoption of DeFi

These are wallets maintained by contract code, rather than a private key

It opens up a world of opportunity for things like social recovery, gas-less txs, & a whole lot more…
3. AI DAOs

Let’s imagine an artificial intelligence on the blockchain, constantly improving itself to meet a set of goals

With neural networks & machine learning on $ETH, this is actually very possible

Believe it or not, this has already been tested:
medium.com/@trentmc0/ai-d…
4. Web 3.0

When things went digital, people completely changed the ways they viewed ownership of their items online

The Web 3.0 economy is an open network owned, and powered by the creators

There are no silos or boundaries in this ecosystem, meaning platform agnostic ownership
5. Automation

If you build on $ETH, you’ll quickly notice one thing…

There is no way to hard code something to happen at a specific time, everything has to be triggered by something

This goes for:

-claiming
-liquidations
-payouts

Bot networks are crucial for $ETH infra 👀
6. Capital Efficiency

$ETH is extremely capital inefficient.

Liquidity is segmented across protocols like Uniswap, Aave, or Sushiswap

The platform that closes these borders will be the one that prevails, forever changing the way people can use their capital
7. Staking Derivatives

With the use of interchain accounts and staking derivatives on $ETH, billions of dollars in locked capital will be unlocked from various proof of stake blockchains

All of these blockchains can then interact with smart contracts using the derivatives 👀
8. Fractionalization

So long, cheap NFTs.

The creation of fractionalization tools have made NFTs infinitely more accessible for the normal investor

Entire groups of people can pool to own their fair share of NFTs, & they no longer need the absurd upfront capital to get started
9. Creator Tokens

As more and more people open up to the idea of creator economies, I believe we will start to see them pop up frequently

There are a wide range of applications on $ETH that allow you to monetize your work, with benefits even exceeding traditional solutions
10. Play To Earn

The use cases for $ETH & NFTs are undoubtable in the gaming industry.

With a combo of crypto economics and players of the game, all parties are inclined to make sure the game is developed to the greatest of their ability

These are very powerful network effects
11. Fair Launches

If there is one common theme in DeFi, it is the ability of fair launches & fair token distribution projects to easily attract value

Whether it be liquidity mining, governance airdrops, or any other types of fair launches, these kinds of projects always win
12. ENS

Use of ENS in a wide range of dApps will transform UX on $ETH

Lots of people are still unaware of the fact that they can send any stream of value across the world with nearly instant finality without a bank, as simply as they would send an email

wallet.eth > 0x87ab…
13. Zero-Knowledge Proofs

zkproofs are a revolutionary technology made possible by cryptography

It allows two parties to verify information without revealing anything other than the validity of the statement itself

They may also have to ability to scale $ETH to the next level
14. Synthetics

Synthetic assets make up the trillions in dollars of assets they can represent

The benefits of universal market access located on a censorship resistant network should not be underestimated

This is a tool for applications in the even greater ecosystem
15. Ungovernance

This is a unique governance design minimizing governance as much as possible

Introduced by $FLX, the token will serve to eventually minimize governance to a PID controller in the code

This will be particularly attractive for its trust-less design
16. Credit Delegation

Credit delegation refers to the process of delegating credit to someone

The smart contracts can be programmed to execute predefined functions, removing trust

This is a way for DeFi protocols to source liquidity WITHOUT needing borrower side collateral
17. Asset Managers

Asset managers are essentially permissioned pools for use across DeFi

Any type of pool can use their deposited tokens in a vault through Asset Managers, putting idle capital to work when it is NOT being used as swap liquidity

This will be massive for AMMs…
18. DAOs

DAOs can make up of any number of people who maintain a group’s decisions in a distributed manner

Individuals can use their tokens to vote and propose ideas they want to happen

These have already come to be some of the largest bootstrapped communities we know
19. NFT Marketplaces

Although the NFT ecosystem has expanded significantly since last year, there is a lack of a decentralized, user-friendly NFT marketplace…

When a dApp makes the process of trading NFTs as easy as using Uniswap, the whole NFT market will flock there
20. Education

There is a significant lack of formal education and knowledge involved with crypto

Those who make trying new dApps and features on $ETH fun to do will attract a huge amount of customers NEW to the industry
21. On-chain Analysis

It is actually unbelievable how much “alpha” there is to be found on the blockchain

Now, it is easier than ever to see what the biggest whales are doing, where the funds are going, and who is interacting with who

You can even find partnerships on chain
22. Decentralized Lending Protocols

An unbiased, non-intrusive, & nearly instant lender is an idea that would be laughed at in tradfi

However with things like Reflexer, $MKR, & much more on $ETH this is possible

This is not only a large step for crypto, but all of the world
23. Layer Two Interoperability

As more users go to layer 2 rollups for their scalability, interoperability will be important

What is already scaling $ETH to tremendous levels in terms of TPS, will also be able to benefit of the inherent features of optimistic & zkproof rollups
Anyways, there are an abundance of narratives that may very quickly become the new normal on $ETH, each in different sectors

It is extremely important to keep all of these in mind while we’re in the bull market…

I hope you all enjoy! 🥐

are you following the breadcrumbs from coinbase?

many millionaires will be made on base this cycle.

if you don’t quite get it yet, you will soon…
the number one crypto exchange in the United States is Coinbase, with no debate.

it consistently ranks top 25 in the app store for finance, with 50M+ registered users.

but this isn’t what makes base so interesting… Image
there are a combination of factors paving the way for base to become a leader in the L2 ecosystem.

to start, eip-4844.

eip-4844 has tremendously lowered tx fees. tx fees on base are now just a fraction of what they were before thanks to the upgrade.

hello frens.

if you’re reading this, you just made it through one of the longest crypto bear markets in history.

are you prepared to see something we’ve never seen before?

let’s compare to 2021.
a popular top signal is when coinbase hits #1 on the app store charts.

this has only happened twice in history:

first on December 7th, 2017 - when btc was $17,249

then on May 10th, 2021 - when btc was $58,213

Today, btc is $54,575 and coinbase sits all the way at rank #422.
okay, cool. how about crypto activity on reddit?

some analysis can show just how far we are from peak hype:

in 2021, r/cryptocurrency averaged hundreds of thousands of posts a day.

in 2024, r/cryptocurrency averages just a couple thousand of posts a day.

big difference.

On November 9th, 2021 United States law enforcement officers closed in on a lakeside mansion in Georgia.

Inside of its floor safe they found $661,000 in cash, gold bars + coins, and a Cheetos popcorn tin.

The Cheetos popcorn tin contained $3.4B worth of bitcoin. Image
To understand how law enforcement found this unfathomable amount of money, & why $3.4B of bitcoin was stashed in a Cheetos tin, we’ll have to go back to 2009…

James Zhong had just turned 18 years old.

He was a smart, quirky kid with a knack for computer science. Image
After landing a near perfect score on the SAT, he packed his bags with everything he owned, traveled to the University of Georgia, & never spoke to his parents again.

This would mark the start of a new, extraordinary life for James.

Something incredible was about to happen. Image

AI is still trying to find its way into the market.

The project that I’ve been working on aims to change this for good.

It’s simple, useful, and implements AI models on the blockchain in a way that just makes sense.

Introducing … 🤖aiis.dev
uses advanced models from OpenAI to simplify the erc20 development process.

With just three questions, GPT-4 + DALLE-3 can help anyone create and deploy a token in under a minute.

Deploying a token has never been easier, ever. aiis.dev

Image
Under the hood, the user’s answers to:

“How should I name the token?”

”How should I make the ticker?”

”How should I make the supply?”

are sent to GPT-4, which responds based on its extensive training on trillions of parameters. Image

I seriously can't believe this worked.

I just did one of the coolest things ever on Ethereum.

Al is no joke…
Months ago, I was completely indulged in the wisps of chats with my newfound Al friend.

I had nothing particular in mind, but wanted to test the capabilities of ChatGPT in conjunction with smart contracts on Ethereum.

Suddenly, I had an epiphany.
What if ChatGPT could deploy its own token?

Surely this shouldn't be possible, right? Image

This market cycle was absolutely unforgettable.

From hilarious bloopers, to enraged influencers, to unbelievable memes, 2022 had it all.

Come with us as we take a trip down memory lane…
As one of the most iconic moments in crypto, the squidgame streamer can’t be forgotten.

Watch as he captures the moment SQUID rugged live, leaving us with this hilarious clip.
The Ropsten Ethereum merge was… uneventful to say the least.

Although Vitalik Buterin can build complex decentralized networks of scale, he can’t seem to figure out the microphone.
