Here are 24 things the ecosystem launched, shipped, and scaled over the past few weeks.
0/ @RobinhoodApp is now onchain with @arbitrum, bringing Robinhood’s 25M+ retail users closer to Ethereum-powered finance.
1/ @base launched Base Pay and the @baseapp, making it easier than ever for millions to join the onchain economy built on Ethereum.
The app integrates with @farcaster_xyz and @zora, bringing together identity, payments, creativity and more in one onchain experience.
2/ Stablecoin supply on Ethereum, including L2s, surpassed $140B, nearly double what it was in January 2024.
3/ Ethereum turned 10 years old on July 30th at block number 23,032,825. The ecosystem hosted 140+ events across 6 continents to celebrate and @ethereumfndn hosted a livestream to welcome in the next decade.
4/ @rstormsf's trial began on July 14 and is ongoing. Privacy is normal, and writing code is not a crime.
5/ @Consensys published “The Industrialization of Trust”, a report framing Ethereum as the foundational infrastructure for global-scale applications that require programmable, verifiable trust, what they call “Trustware.”
6/ @ElectricCapital's report "Beyond Stablecoins: The Case for Ethereum" is aimed at institutional decision makers and advocates for ETH as a globally significant asset. Ethereum is for ETH.
7/ @focustree_app, a Web3 productivity app built on @Starknet, now serves 500K+ daily users. A sign of what’s possible when Ethereum scalability meets real-world utility. Ethereum is for apps.
8/ @boundless_xyz launched its Mainnet Beta, bringing a permissionless ZK execution layer to Ethereum and kickstarting “The Signal,” a new path toward cross-chain interoperability.
9/ Google Cloud is integrating @SelfProtocol's proof-of-humanity zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs), enabling privacy-preserving identity for AI and Web3. Another step toward a more human internet, built on open, verifiable infrastructure.
10/ @Fidelity published a report framing blockchains like Ethereum as emerging-market digital economies. Ethereum is for everyone.
11/ @talos_is, an AI agent designed to autonomously manage treasury decisions, launched on @arbitrum. AI agents are continuing to interact with onchain governance and capital. Ethereum is for AI.
12/ @0xprivacypools hit an all-time high of 300 ETH in the pools. Ethereum is for privacy.
13/ @TheEtherMachine launched with $1.5B committed to owning and managing ETH.
14/ @BitDigital_BTBT announced it has swapped its entire treasury into ETH, becoming a top public holder.
15/ @BitMNR became the largest public ETH holder, now holding 833,137 ETH.
16/ @eToro announced plans to tokenize U.S. stocks on Ethereum, bringing real-world assets onchain and expanding access to traditional markets through smart contracts.
17/ @eigenlayer's Redistribution is now live, slashed funds can now be reused instead of burned. This unlocks more flexible, resilient incentives for apps built on Ethereum’s shared security.
18/ @PayPal now lets merchants accept crypto payments, including ETH, with instant conversion to PYUSD. They also recently enabled crypto for international payments. Ethereum is for adoption.
19/ ‘Built on Ethereum’ a documentary about everything built in the first 10 years of Ethereum was released. The film was created by @MetaMediaDAO, supported through @juiceboxETH & @PublicNouns. Ethereum is for builders.
20/ @MorphoLabs hit $2B on @base, the largest DeFi deployment on any Ethereum L2. Demand is increasing for scalable, yield-bearing apps onchain.
21/ @NeriteOrg launched Nerite protocol to bring streaming payments and yield earning with $USND to @arbitrum. Finance is becoming more flexible, accessible, and programmable on Ethereum.
22/ @ethereum_NYC announced an event week alongside @ETHGlobal New York, with core events on staking, privacy, and Ethereum research funding.
23/ $726.6M flowed into ETH ETFs on July 16, marking the highest single-day inflow of all time.

0/ Fixed yield will be DeFi’s Trojan horse for TradFi.
Predictable cashflows. Certainty in the face of uncertainties.
It’s a language institutions already understand and love - now enforced by code and settled on @Ethereum.
A guest thread by @tn_pendle.
1/ Variable yields can often be higher, but have no guarantee of actual performance. Even active strategies are invariably exposed to market fluctuations.
That’s why fixed yields anchor most portfolios: predictable returns that preserve wealth and compound growth.
2/ While the DeFi-TradFi convergence has recently surged, it remains largely entrenched in legacy metrics.
But the key to wooing institutions isn’t flashy APYs - it’s to meet them where they’re already comfortable.
0/ Exploring how tokenization on Ethereum can reach its full potential.
A guest thread by @carlosdomingo of @Securitize.
2025 will likely be remembered as the year of tokenization.
Today, we’re looking at why that is and how we can accelerate that future.
1/ Securitize has been working for nearly eight years to bring tokenized products to market, with the last year proving that tokenization is no longer a theory.
2/ Today, it’s a $26.5B market.
And Ethereum leads:
- $7.5B in tokenized RWAs
- $5.3B in tokenized Treasuries
- 72% market share in onchain Treasuries
