Ethereum heeft het de afgelopen jaren moeilijk gehad. Sinds het koersrecord in 2021 bleef herstel uit, terwijl Bitcoin die oude piek inmiddels ver achter zich heeft gelaten. Voor ETH-bezitters was het dan ook lange tijd afzien. Inmiddels is er weer beweging in de prijs, met een sterke stijging sinds begin mei. Toch dringt de vraag zich op: is er fundamenteel iets mis met Ethereum, of is dit slechts een tijdelijke achterstand? Pim Swart, Principal bij de Amsterdamse durfinvesteerder Maven11, zoekt mee naar een antwoord. De afgelopen vier jaar werden gekenmerkt door technologische vernieuwing, maar ook door toenemende concurrentie. Volgens sommigen is Ethereum juist te complex geworden, en dat zou investeerders kunnen afschrikken. Maven11 ging in die context op zoek naar alternatieven voor Ethereum en kwam uit bij Celestia. De behoefte aan schaalbaarheid en eenvoud speelde daarbij een belangrijke rol. Toch is er ook binnen Ethereum zelf veel gebeurd. De tweede laag, met rollups als Optimism, Arbitrum en Base, kreeg de afgelopen jaren vorm. Vooral Base, opgezet door Coinbase, kreeg veel aandacht, al wachten de meeste gebruikers nog steeds op een echte ‘killer app’. Tegelijkertijd duiken er nieuwe spelers op binnen het Ethereum-ecosysteem, wat de vraag oproept of het netwerk z’n leidende positie kan behouden. Ook buiten Ethereum groeit de druk, vooral vanuit Solana, dat een stuk gebruiksvriendelijker en sneller wordt gevonden door ontwikkelaars. Vitalik Buterin, oprichter van Ethereum, blijft ondertussen betrokken bij het netwerk. Hij treedt nog regelmatig naar buiten met blogposts en bijdragen aan discussies over de technische richting van Ethereum. De Ethereum Foundation, waar hij nog steeds een invloedrijke rol speelt, werkt aan de toekomstige upgrades. Daarbij liggen de prioriteiten bij schaalbaarheid, veiligheid en gebruiksgemak. De upgrades Pectra en Fusaka, die binnenkort worden uitgerold, moeten bijdragen aan een soepeler netwerk. Het zijn belangrijke stappen in een lang traject dat Ethereum toekomstbestendig moet maken. Toch lijkt Vitalik nog altijd weinig waarde te hechten aan de prijs van ETH; zijn focus ligt vooral op de technologie. Ook de documentaire Vitalik: An Ethereum Story geeft dat beeld weer. Vitalik wordt geportretteerd als een denker, niet als een ondernemer. De prijsstijging van de afgelopen weken valt volgens sommigen samen met deze technologische vooruitgang, al kunnen ook marktdynamiek en algemene belangstelling voor crypto een rol spelen. De ETFs voor Ethereum, die afgelopen zomer met veel verwachtingen werden gelanceerd, leverden voorlopig nog geen groot succes op. Volume en inflow bleven beperkt, en van een duidelijke winnaar is geen sprake. Wat rest is de vraag of Ethereum zich herpakt, of dat de achterstand op de concurrentie verder oploopt.

This week on Unchained: two big stories, one episode. First, Jesse Pollak, head of Coinbase's L2 Base, joins to unpack the chaos behind the viral “Coined It” memecoin moment, a tweet-turned-token that hit $17M in an hour, crashed, then rebounded, igniting a firestorm on Crypto Twitter. Was it a media experiment or a botched launch? Was there insider trading? And why does Jesse think coins are the future of creator monetization? Then, we dive into Converge, the recently announced chain backed by Ethena and Securitize, aiming to bridge TradFi and DeFi. Carlos Domingo and Guy Young explain what makes Converge technically novel, why they're building on Arbitrum and Celestia, and how it could reshape the onchain landscape for institutions. Also in this episode: Whether Jesse regrets greenlighting the Base post The future of creator coins and tokenized assets How Converge plans to prevent hacks and improve UX And why Converge isn't just about migrating existing assets, but “expanding the pie” Thank you to our sponsors! Bitkey: Use code UNCHAINED for 20% off FalconX Mantle Part 1 Jesse Pollak, Head of Base and Coinbase Wallet On Wednesday, Coinbase's layer 2 network Base posted a tweet that read: “Base is for everyone,” followed by a tweet: “Coined it.” That second tweet linked to a page where the post had already been turned into a coin. Within an hour, the coin hit a $17 million market cap, then dropped to under $2 million, then went back up to over $13 million. Crypto Twitter exploded. Some called it a rug. Others accused insiders of sniping the launch. Coinbase later issued a statement saying that Zora auto-tokenizes content, but Jesse Pollak, head of Base, tweeted that he personally greenlit the post. So what really happened? In this episode, Jesse sits down with Laura to discuss: Whether this was a memecoin launch or a media experiment Why he thinks the crypto community overreacted Whether insider trading occurred And why he believes coins, not NFTs, are the future of creator monetization Plus, he explains why he's okay being the “punching bag.” Part 2 A month ago, Converge was announced as the new chain backed by Ethena and Securitize, aiming to become a home for tokenized assets and institutional capital. On Thursday, the teams behind it released the full technical specs. From validator-triggered circuit breakers to 100ms block times and support for yield-generating private credit, Converge is pitching itself as the chain for both TradFi and DeFi. In this episode, Securitize's Carlos Domingo and Ethena's Guy Young join Unchained to explain what's actually novel in this architecture, why they chose Arbitrum and Celestia, and what it will take for institutions to get comfortable onchain. Plus:  What Converge means for Ethereum and other L2s Whether gas tokens like USDe and USDtb solve real UX problems How they plan to prevent bridge-based hacks And why this isn't just about migrating existing assets, but “expanding the pie” Guest Carlos Domingo, co-founder and CEO of Securitize Guy Young, founder of Ethena Labs Links Previous coverage of Unchained on Ethena: After an Incredible 2024 for USDe, Ethena Plans to Supercharge Growth Ethena's USDe Grew to $2 Billion in 7 Weeks.
