When Wall Street finally meets Ethereum

This year has seen some changes. People in the traditional finance circle—those who once scoffed at cryptocurrencies during dinners—are beginning to take a genuine interest in Ethereum. And this network? It meets them in the middle.
This is not just another bull market narrative. Institutions are beginning to integrate Ethereum infrastructure into their operations, while the ecosystem continues to mature to meet institutional standards. ETH holders are observing a peculiar cycle: as Wall Street adopts Ethereum, the network is also adapting to accommodate institutional capital flows and regulatory frameworks.
Convenient marriages are becoming more substantial. Both parties realize each other's needs—traditional finance brings liquidity and legitimacy, while Ethereum brings programmability and efficiency. By the end of the year, it is evident: 2025 is the year when the two worlds stop looking at each other from a distance and start building the future together.
