Cours du Starknet

Ethereum is for shipping. 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.
