Since launching in 2015, Ethereum has processed billions of transactions and undergone 16 major upgrades — all without a single moment of downtime.
“Ethereum must ensure it never goes down,” Vitalik Buterin emphasized during his keynote speech.
This strong track record of reliability has turned Ethereum from a tech project into a public digital infrastructure relied upon by millions.
Ethereum Powers a New Digital Economy
From DeFi platforms and NFTs to DAOs and digital identities, Ethereum now powers a wide array of decentralized tools across multiple industries. Landmark upgrades like The Merge (2022) and Dencun (2024) improved speed and scalability without compromising decentralization.
Vitalik highlighted Ethereum’s mission to uphold digital freedom, global progress, and constant uptime.
ETH Price Soars Amid Anniversary Buzz
The anniversary sparked renewed excitement in the market. ETH surged 48% this month, rising from $2,500 to $3,800, and is now trading around $3,632 with a 6% daily gain. Trading volume also rose by nearly 2%, reaching $37.02 billion.
Analysts predict Ethereum could soon retest the $4,000 mark.\
Ethereum’s next major upgrade, Pectra, will introduce EIP-7251 and EIP-7702, aimed at improving validator performance and bringing smart contract functionality to regular accounts. These features are expected to enhance both security and usability.
Commemorating Unity Through a Free NFT Drop
To honor the occasion, the Ethereum Foundation released a free NFT called the “Ethereum Torch.” The digital collectible has virtually traveled across ten countries as a symbol of the network’s global unity.
Ethereum now stands as a foundation for decentralized science, AI innovation, and real-world solutions far beyond finance.
As Ethereum enters its second decade, the message is clear: it must remain secure, always online, and ready to shape the next wave of digital evolution.
