What are the fun things about the 4th anniversary of Ethereum?

The 4th anniversary of Ethereum, V God bless:

V God: Happy Birthday to Ethereum

Developer Nick Dodson calls for boosting morale:

To commemorate the birthday of Ethereum (4th anniversary), I want to say:

Don't (unfortunately) call the Ethereum.

We either succeeded because we really built a great system, or we failed because we didn't expand the technology and find the real use scenario.

Regardless of what others think, the establishment of this project (the Ethereum) is not just a trader's business.

Best shouting, Ryan Sean Adams:

Last year, IC0 (projector) held about 4.6 million eth in Ethereum, and now it is 2.3 million eth.

They called this number drop called the death spiral of IC0.

Also last year, the number of Ethereum held by DeFi was about 390,000, and now it is 2.3 million.

This means that the locked eth in DeFi has made up for the death spiral.

After one year, eth's lock-in will return to 4.6 million.

Summary of the US Senate "Review of the regulatory framework for digital currency and blockchain" hearing

The well-known KOL Boxmining talks about the US cryptocurrency hearing:

After reading the US Congress’ hearing on cryptocurrency today:

The United States has a long way to go from clear regulation.

The topic of discussion is too broad – still in the exploration phase.

Congress feels like a dinosaur (a person of the age)—nearly knowing the Internet, let alone the blockchain.

Another problem is that digital assets are a very broad topic. Currency, voting tokens, securities tokens, practical tokens, property tokens…
Everything can be tokenized, so it is impossible to treat them as a category.
