As the bull market enters altcoin season, time seems to be running out for ETH. Since the beginning of this surge cycle at the end of 2023, ETH's performance has garnered much attention. However, it seems that ETH's performance has been somewhat below expectations over the past year. The most intuitive observation is that from October 2023 to now, the maximum increase was 170%, lingering around the $4000 mark without a significant breakthrough. In contrast, BTC's maximum increase during the same period exceeded 300%, and SOL's increase surpassed 1300%. Many believe that ETH represents the opportunity for the altcoin season, but with several established altcoins rising sharply in the short term, ETH's momentum appears noticeably insufficient.

In the two weeks since Trump's reelection, our feelings about cryptocurrency regulation look very hopeful, especially for ETH.

Although ETH has stabilized since its surge after the elections, institutional demand continues to trend upward, and as staking levels reach historic highs, supply will only contract further. This attractive market setup, combined with expectations of relaxed regulations, paves the way for ETH ETF staking and the fee switch for crypto protocols.

As Ethereum is poised to capitalize on these trends, there are solid reasons for its exceptional performance and that of its strongest L2 Base.

Chiang Mai is a large international village where Vitalik has lived for about 42 days recently. For him, who flies 55 times a year and moves almost every week, it is rare for him to live in a city for such a long time.

During these 42 days, a bottom-up, decentralized, and increasingly populous social life experiment took place. Eventually, more than 1,000 blockchain practitioners from all over the world arrived in Chiang Mai and spontaneously formed 8 or 9 cities and villages (Pop-Up Cities). They were going to build a "Web3 City" here for six weeks.
