Lessons From ETH Dublin: The Crypto Community Grows Up

Hackathon teams present their projects at ETH Dublin, with one team explaining how their solution ... More addresses doom-scrolling and screen-time goals. Paul Dylan Ennis, an Irish academic, sits in front of the stage next to Vitalik Buterin, the founder of Ethereum. They are sat in a Dublin cellar, flanked by pictures of padron peppers and tomatoes. A professor at University College Dublin, Ennis does not look like a stereotypical academic. He is covered in tattoos, including a prominent Ethereum logo inked on his skin. As the conference unfolds around him, he finds himself thinking about a sci-fi essay he once wrote exploring what the world would look like if everyone lived as sovereign individuals. His thought experiment asked: what if we took the ideals that the crypto community holds sacred and made them universal? The world we live in today would have seemed like strange science fiction to many of the people who attended ETH Berlin in 2018, when I first saw Buterin in person. Or at least I think I saw him, because he may have been wearing a fur suit during what was then a fringe gathering of crypto enthusiasts. But here's an even more sci-fi twist: many of the hackathon projects at ETH Dublin were built using AI coding tools that didn't exist seven years ago, creating better minimum viable products faster than anyone could have imagined. What strikes me about Ennis's reflection is the apparent lack of recognition from many in crypto circles that, in many ways, this vision has already materialized. Yet here they are, trapped in an odd dynamic of discussing the same topics they debated seven years ago, seemingly oblivious to how dramatically reality has shifted since then. Paul Dylan Ennis (left) and Vitalik Buterin during a talk at ETH Dublin, discussing crypto's ... More evolution in the venue's atmospheric stone cellar. I sat through a panel called "Can we onboard the masses?" where "IrishNFTGal" spoke about onboarding her 90-year-old grandmother to nonfungible tokens (NFTs), admitting that she "didn't get much out of it." The conversation felt like a time warp. The same earnest discussions about user experience and mass adoption that dominated Berlin 2018, as if nothing had changed. But here's the uncomfortable truth the crypto community struggles to acknowledge: average users are much more interested in speculation than in vague concepts like "individual sovereignty" and "privacy," which remain abstract, ideological and political to most people. Crypto delivered exactly what users actually wanted, easy access to financial speculation, rather than what idealists preached they should want. The adoption Buterin does celebrate represents crypto's quieter victory. EU and Taiwan digital ID systems based on zero-knowledge proofs, the seeping of open source culture from crypto-adjacent circles to broader tech, crypto principles shaping AI conversations. This infrastructure and ideological influence spread even as the community obsessed over pictures of monkeys on a blockchain. These examples showcase crypto's philosophical wins, where decentralized thinking has permeated traditional institutions and shaped how governments and technologists approach digital systems. But there's another kind of adoption story that Buterin doesn't highlight, one that tells a different tale about what users actually want. Bitcoin exchange-traded funds allow mainstream investors to speculate without understanding keys or wallets. TrumpCoin and other memecoins let millions participate in speculative theater through financial markets. Prediction market Polymarket is widely cited on the news. Apps like Revolut enable instant crypto speculation from your phone. This is mass adoption too, just not the kind that makes crypto conferences feel good about themselves. Judges deliberate on hackathon submissions at ETH Dublin, reviewing projects in the venue's historic ... More stone cellar spaces. The most telling sign of crypto's maturation wasn't found in any panel discussion, but in the venue logistics. ETH Dublin and a major Solana event shared the same space. This is an acknowledgment of how massive Solana has become and how the ecosystem has evolved beyond ideological purity. Many submissions at ETH Dublin had also been pitched at various Solana hackathons. Builders now follow opportunity across chains rather than pledging allegiance to single ecosystems. One of the speakers on the ETH Dublin stage, Dr. Nick Almond, announced that he had recently changed employers to Jito, a Solana restaking protocol. Alejandro Gutierrez, one of the founders of ETH Dublin, was the butt of several jokes for also participating in the Solana ecosystem. While it's somewhat new for speakers to be openly "curious" about which chains they support, the people in the crowd have always been 'multi-chain curious', except at some bitcoin events, where some attendees are genuinely monotheistic about their chosen cryptocurrency (even if the speakers aren't). A person I met who pitched at ETH Dublin was an ambassador for Avalanche and also built an open source bitcoin wallet. Crypto factions seem important from within, but all crypto people are the same to outsiders. Perhaps most tellingly, Base (Coinbase's layer-2 on Ethereum) had a prominent presence sponsoring workshops. Base is self-admittedly early on its journey to decentralization, which is corporate speak for "not decentralized at all yet." But it serves user needs easily and efficiently. The community's embrace of Base represents a fundamental shift: a recognition of pragmatism over purity, whatever works for users over ideological consistency. Or a betrayal of ideals, depending on who you ask. ETH Dublin attendees collaborate on a project during the hackathon The hackathon results revealed both continuity and transformation. The overall quality was dramatically higher than previous years, largely thanks to AI-assisted development tools that allow teams to build better minimum viable products faster. Yet the themes remained disparate, with sophisticated AI integration sitting alongside retro ideas like putting ancestry records on blockchain. The winning projects told the story of crypto's practical evolution. RecEth, which took first place, generates confirmation emails for crypto transactions, a simple solution bridging the expected user experience of traditional finance with crypto's reality. Latinum, the second-place winner, provides payment middleware enabling Model Context Protocol builders to monetize their services, allowing AI agents to manage budgets and make autonomous payments. Fundraisly aims to become a global platform for legally compliant fundraising, while my personal favorite LockedIn creates a social platform where users stake ether to combat doom-scrolling habits. These projects address real behavioral and infrastructure problems rather than chasing ideological goals. Some ideas remained stuck in 2018's mindset, but the execution was powered by 2025's technology stack. Perhaps a metaphor for some of the crypto space. Many of the participants were the same people who were around 7 years ago, but the conference's introspective mood reflected more than just aging. There's a palpable sense of disillusionment with crypto's own governance experiments. The journey from DAOFest 2018's optimism to Buterin's suggestion to "burn decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) to the ground" in 2025 represents one of crypto's most sobering lessons. Instead of becoming digital cooperatives for the 21st century, DAOs largely devolved into digital homeowners' association meetings complete with petty politics, bureaucratic inefficiency and governance theater. The very people who believed most deeply in decentralized governance are now its harshest critics. This disillusionment extends beyond DAOs to the broader growing pains accompanying crypto's success. Internal politics and bureaucratic struggles now characterize organizations that once prided themselves on revolutionary simplicity. The demographics have shifted from young idealists to seasoned veterans grappling with institutional weight and responsibility. The community has grown up, but growth brought unexpected burdens. Privacy technology has experienced a renaissance (evident in Monero's price action and advances in zero-knowledge research) partly as a course correction against crypto's uncomfortable proximity to establishment power. Buterin himself has been pushing privacy tools with renewed urgency, recognizing that the original cypherpunk ethos of crypto has been overshadowed by mainstream financial adoption. The recent power changes in the US have made privacy feel fundamentally important again to many in the more libertarian leaning community. What was once dismissed as paranoid libertarian fantasy now feels prescient as crypto finds itself caught between regulatory embrace and surveillance concerns. Zero-knowledge proofs, once a niche academic pursuit, have become a rallying cry for preserving crypto's original promise of financial sovereignty even as the industry courts institutional adoption. A panel discussion on "The Essence of Ethereum" at ETH Dublin, featuring industry leaders in a ... More relaxed conversation format typical of crypto conferences. Crypto succeeded by serving user desires rather than imposing ideological goals. The revolution arrived quietly through practical applications, not just manifestos about sovereign individuals, but apps that let people speculate on their phones. Not decentralized utopias for the techno-literate, but centralized solutions like Base that actually work for everyday users. The global nature of the crypto community remains its greatest strength. Attendees understand cross-border financial friction from lived experience, driving practical solutions for real problems like credit score portability and international payments. Their perspectives come from navigating multiple financial systems, not theoretical knowledge. Seven years of development have taught the Ethereum community hard lessons about the gap between technological possibility and human adoption patterns. The most successful technologies rarely fulfill their creators' original visions; instead, they find unexpected applications that prove more valuable than anyone anticipated. As crypto conferences continue grappling with the same fundamental questions, perhaps the persistence of these conversations isn't a failure, it's recognition that some problems are worth discussing for decades because they're genuinely important (and difficult) to solve. The revolution may not have arrived as promised, but evolution continues daily, one practical application at a time. The community's maturation from revolutionary idealism to pragmatic incrementalism might disappoint early believers, but it represents natural growth. What struck me most about ETH Dublin wasn't the technology discussions, but how much everyone genuinely loved the community itself. The conversations were deeply introspective, with attendees reflecting not just on code and protocols, but on meaning and purpose. In many ways, crypto has become a secular religion for the 21st century, a rare space where young people can gather to earnestly discuss how to improve the world and actually build solutions. It's one of the few communities that combines philosophical idealism with practical engineering, offering both a sense of purpose and a path to create change. The hackathon projects weren't just technical exercises; they were expressions of hope about fixing real problems, from reducing doom-scrolling to enabling fair fundraising. Paul Dylan Ennis, with his Ethereum tattoo and academic credentials, embodies this evolution in a unique way. He studies these communities professionally, intimately aware of the nuances of bitcoin governance discussions and the internal politics and drama that most Bitcoin ETF holders never see. His sci-fi essay wasn't just a thought experiment; it was a sprawling academic paper disguised as (amateur) fantasy fiction, exploring how the world transforms as crypto's influence grows. The movement may have evolved beyond its original vision, but it has retained something perhaps more valuable: a community that still believes technology can make the world better, and is willing to spend their weekends proving it.

Prediction: This Cryptocurrency Will Be the Biggest Comeback Story of 2025

Ethereum is still down 20% for the year, making it one of the worst-performing top cryptocurrencies. After a much-anticipated tech upgrade in May, Ethereum appears to have new momentum headed into the second half of the year. Investor inflows are returning to the spot Ethereum ETFs, which could lead to new price gains. 10 stocks we like better than Ethereum › Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH), the world's second-largest cryptocurrency, has had an absolutely dreadful start to the year. It's still down 20% in mid-May, and has been underperforming the broader crypto market for months now. However, a number of catalysts are coming together for Ethereum that could make it the comeback story of the year. In the second half of 2025, I'm expecting a big breakout for Ethereum. Here's why. It might sound simplistic, but the easiest way to gauge how much momentum a cryptocurrency has is by looking at investor inflows and outflows. This method is available to Ethereum investors, because it is one of only two cryptocurrencies with exchange-traded funds (ETFs) based on their current spot prices. Generally, if money is flowing into these spot ETFs, it suggests rising demand and can put upward pressure on Ethereum's price. If money is flowing out of these spot ETFs, the price of Ethereum is likely to fall. Other factors also drive Ethereum's price changes, including market sentiment and recent news, but generous ETF inflows are still a handy measuring stick. That's why the first half of the year has been so problematic for Ethereum. Investors were moving money out of these ETFs at a rapid pace. But inflows are starting to appear again. In fact, May is shaping up to be the best month of the year, with over $100 million in new money flowing into the spot Ethereum ETFs. It's still too early to do a victory lap, but things are definitely looking better. Another important catalyst is a brand-new upgrade of the Ethereum blockchain, known as "Pectra" (a combination of "Prague" and "Electra"). While blockchain upgrades are a dime a dozen these days, this one from Ethereum really resonated with investors. As soon as Pectra went live on May 7, the price of Ethereum started to soar. There are several reasons why the Pectra upgrade has resonated so much with investors. The primary reason is that it reaffirms Ethereum's desire to boost its transaction processing capacity. This is one area where upstart rivals have really stolen a march on Ethereum, so it's important to show constant progress on this front. The upgrade also helps to make Ethereum cheaper and easier to use. At the same time, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin appears to be making important changes to the overall strategic vision for the blockchain network. Just days before the Pectra upgrade, for example, he outlined a vision to make Ethereum "as simple as Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC)" within the next five years. Ever since The Merge in 2022, Ethereum has been making so many upgrades, and getting so bogged down in wonky tech implementations, that it has become too complex and too difficult for many people to use. So Ethereum has been forced to rely on Layer 2 scaling solutions (helper blockchain systems that sit on top of the core Ethereum blockchain) to improve speed and scalability. The good news is that the Ethereum community seems to have woken up to this problem. After months of people complaining about Ethereum's slow performance, Buterin appears to be searching out new approaches that will simplify Ethereum, making it cheaper to use and easier to maintain. At the end of the day, any comeback for Ethereum is only possible if it becomes a bigger player in the White House's strategic vision for crypto. The good news is that there have been some promising first steps. For example, Ethereum has become a core holding of World Liberty Financial, the Trump-affiliated crypto venture. And, in March, the White House added Ethereum to the U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile. But here's the thing: Vitalik Buterin was an unexpected no-show at the big Crypto Summit at the White House in March. In the past, he has made no secret of his disdain for the politicization of crypto, and his personal desire to prevent the Ethereum blockchain ecosystem from being transformed into a "degenerate casino" for Wall Street. Maybe this is reading too much into things, but Buterin's no-show at the Crypto Summit could suggest that Ethereum is not quite ready to get on board with some of the White House's more aggressive crypto moves. That could end up costing Ethereum, if it ends up losing ground to other blockchain rivals. By just about any measure, Ethereum has underperformed this year. It is losing ground in key sectors of the crypto world. It failed to capitalize on the enormous retail investor interest around meme coins, and it has yet to get fully on board with the White House's pro-crypto strategy. But that was the first half of 2025. The second half of 2025 looks much more favorable. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised at all if Ethereum outperforms Bitcoin over the next six months, making it the crypto sector's comeback story of the year.

Frogger Token Positioned to Lead the Next Memecoin Run!

London, UK, May 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Frogger enters a space that has already seen great successes from frog-themed meme coins such as Pepe ($PEPE) Apu Apustaja ($APU) FWOG ($FWOG) HOPPY ($HOPPY) and many more! Frog memecoins are established within the decentralised space and have been consistently set in motion by high profile references to the Pepe meme. These mentions have been made by the likes of Elon Musk and even Donald Trump. Frogger is setting the trend and aligning itself in a similar manner which led these memecoins to billions in market cap. A key differentiator for Frogger is its broad token distribution—less than 55% is held by the top 100 holders, with Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin as the largest holder. This distribution resembles other memecoins such as $DOGE $PEPE and $SHIBA before they went parabolic. Recognition and Growing Credibility Frogger has already captured attention and recognition amongst multiple social media influencers and content creators. This was expected as Frogger has History, Culture and Relevance. The 1981 arcade Frogger game was one of the most popular and most sold out during the Arcade Era grossing $135million in North America for Sega/Gremlin becoming their most successful release. Additionally Vitalik Buterin is the top holder having acquired Frogger organically. What's more is the Pepe Deployer is also one of the top 100 holders garnering watchful eyes within domain. Frogger isn't just riding a wave—it is the wave. With deep roots in internet lore, cultural cachet from day one, this isn't another memecoin—it's a movement. Tokenomics Frogger's decentralized ethos and simple tokenomics mirror those of other major memecoins like $SHIBA, $PEPE, $DOGE, $WIF, and $FLOKI. A rapidly growing community, zero tax and a burnt liquidity pool. Thanks to its minimalist contract design, transactions are seamless and scalability is built-in, ensuring new holders can join easily—crucial in the swift-moving meme coin market. Will Frogger be the next Frog meme to hit BILLIONS in market cap? Historically, frog memes have proven to be some of the most powerful and enduring symbols in the meme coin world. Take $Pepe, for example — it dominated the last cycle, soaring to a fully diluted valuation exceeding $12 billion. This undeniable success highlights one clear truth: frog-themed tokens have a unique ability to capture the hearts of retail investors. So, the question is — could Frogger be the defining frog meme of this cycle? With its community-driven story and a rapidly growing base of over 2,000 holders, Frogger is poised to be far more than just another meme coin. It represents an evolving narrative that every participant can shape, potentially leading the next wave of meme coin culture. Get Involved with Frogger Frogger offers something new in the Memecoin space. An evolving frog-themed cryptocurrency attracting new investors and arcade game lovers from the 80s and 90s.

Tracing the Footsteps of a Successful Crypto Project With "Vitalik: An Ethereum Story"

Ethereum (ETH) is one of the most important cryptocurrencies, which is why it has attracted the attention of numerous individuals worldwide. Vitalik Buterin launched Ethereum with the goal of solving some of Bitcoin's shortcomings. He managed to do this and offered Ethereum the possibility to have more use cases and the ability to access more applications with smart contracts. This is why Ethereum is a good investment possibility that investors worldwide can add to their portfolios after checking the Ethereum price. However, Ethereum is not a regular cryptocurrency but a story of success that proves that a simple idea can turn into a well-recognized phenomenon. Additionally, as cryptocurrencies are highly characterized by tech innovations, especially in the case of Ethereum, this project needed to be more humanized so that people could rely on it. And it managed to do this, thanks to the documentary film Vitalik: An Ethereum Story. Thanks to the movie, we can discover more about the creator of Ethereum and not only see him as a tech genius. In this article, we will learn more information about Ethereum, Vitalik Buterin, and the documentary that was inspired by the successful story of this crypto project. Who is Vitalik Buterin? Vitalik Buterin has been a gifted child who was viewed as a math genius from a very young age. This is why it was no surprise that Vitalik was interested in Bitcoin (BTC) when it made its way into the world back in 2011. For a very long time, Buterin was fascinated by Bitcoin and looked for ways to add this digital coin to his portfolio. As he didn't have the funds needed to buy BTC, he looked for other ways to finally own this digital coin, which intrigued him. For example, he started writing articles, and he was given 5 BTC per blog post. To better foster his interest in crypto, he soon began traveling the world and learning about BTC from developers. Vitalik also discovered Bitcoin's shortcomings and proposed improvements that could expand the use cases for BTC. However, his proposal was refused, which made him try his hand at launching his own project. So, in 2013, the young crypto enthusiast created a whitepaper and sent it to some of his friends. As they were interested in the project, they later united their forces with Buterin and looked for ways to turn their vision into a reality. The project was launched with the help of an Initial Coin Offering (ICO), where they raised the needed funds to launch Ethereum. From that time, Ethereum has gone through several improvements to enhance what this project was offering and cater to the changing needs of people. Vitalik Buterin's history of launching Ethereum is fascinating, which is why a documentary film was needed to trace a little of the happenings that this crypto project went through. Additionally, this movie was also required to prove that Vitalik is a normal human being and not only a programming and math genius. Vitalik: An Ethereum Story Chris Temple and Zach Ingrasci are the directors of this documentary, and they started to think about this film idea when they were filming another documentary. However, things changed when filming, and the final product resulted in a humanized part of the crypto space, which could make more individuals interested in digital coins. The movie tracks the footsteps of how the Ethereum project was developed and the most important moments in Vitalik Buterin's life. The filmmakers tried to set up Buterin's life and turn the stories heard from Vitalik into the movie. So, we can witness important moments from Vitalik Buterin's childhood, which then turn to the moments when Vitalik became interested in Bitcoin. This interest is what made Vitalik Buterin launch Ethereum in the end, and it is a good idea to finally have a representation of the successful story of Ethereum. However, the movie also focuses on other important milestones from the evolution of Ethereum, such as the first moments when launching Ethereum, and the struggles he faced as a leader. Then, the story continues with the boom of the blockchain and the launch of the Merge, which had the great advantage of reducing the energy consumption of Ethereum. The documentary also focuses on social causes, which humanize Vitalik Buterin even more. The help of Buterin for Ukraine by offering access to crypto resources proves this point. This also shows that cryptocurrencies can be used in every period of our lives, including in wars, where they can help us greatly. The documentary: Humanizing the crypto story The documentary is a testament to the story of Vitalik Buterin, as it shows childhood roots, his great personality, and the emotional impact that Ethereum had when it was launched. Additionally, it casts more light on the individual Vitalik Buterin, so that he can be seen as more than just the creator of Ethereum. So, the filmmakers show moments with Buterin when he drinks tea, makes his breakfast, or discusses with the military officials. This makes Vitalik seen as more than the creator of Ethereum and shows that his journey wasn't full of only happy stories. This can inspire plenty of other people in the world to stand up for their goals, with the desire that Someday they can truly turn their dreams into a reality. Conclusion Ethereum is among the most popular crypto projects, so people are very interested in discovering more important moments from the evolution of this digital coin., This is why documentaries of this kind are always needed, as they offer individuals the direct story of what happened in the past. This can also attract more attention to Ethereum and increase its price, as individuals could be more interested in it after seeing the true story that Vitalik has gone through to launch this project. Ethereum is a testament to great dedication, which shows all the steps that this crypto project has taken to represent the essential digital coin it is today.
