Institutions 🤝 Decentralization
summary
Claims that institutions actively demand decentralization and that Ethereum already meets key requirements: counterparty risk reduction via credible neutrality, multi-client uptime, and cryptoeconomic security able to support trillion-dollar asset classes. Cites concrete gaps: only ~$18B RWA on Ethereum versus ~120T AUM target, so success is measured in trillions. Points to practical tooling: EVM/Solidity maturity, modular Layer 2 stacks, and heavy investment in zero knowledge for privacy as table stakes for banks.
