Canada is uniquely positioned to lead global blockchain innovation — small enough to act swiftly, yet large enough to matter. While the U.S. remains bogged down by regulatory gridlock, Canada boasts deep blockchain roots, world-class talent, and a simpler governance structure. With bold policy moves, including tax reform, streamlined regulation, and national crypto reserves, Canada can become the first G7 country to fully embrace a blockchain-forward future.

ETHEREUM EXECUTIVE PRIMER - Ethereum is the core infrastructure of Web3, transcending the definition of a mere blockchain. This primer highlights its unique strengths: an infinitely scalable architecture through a modular Layer 2 ecosystem, a decentralized and robust governance model fostering continuous innovation, and growing institutional trust evidenced by its adoption in digital finance and tokenized assets. The platform benefits from the largest and most engaged developer ...

I'm not the only one asking this question: Why hasn’t Ethereum’s financial performance reflected the scale of its adoption and innovation? After spending considerable time thinking about it, I believe the answer lies in a combination of messaging, market perception, and ecosystem dynamics.1. Ethereum Has a Messaging ProblemAt its core, Ethereum suffers from a fundamental communication gap. Competitors have been relentless in spreading fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD)—often without a factual...

The recent White House Crypto Summit, while perhaps not delivering the seismic policy shifts some anticipated, marked a pivotal moment in the relationship between the U.S. government and the burgeoning digital asset industry. The Summit showcased both the strengths and limitations of government involvement. While some expected more in terms of clear-cut directives, what we saw instead was something arguably more valuable—a symbolic celebration of openness, a tacit acknowledgment of the indust...

Nowadays, you can make money by merely issuing tokens using financial engineering schemes before even gaining usage or proving market fit. One after another, a new dreamer comes along, thinking they can create a better or faster or cheaper chain than Ethereum. [Ethereum is used as a reference because it’s the most successful developer-focused blockchain, and by virtue of its leadership position, it gets attacked the most...

If I had a 1:1 with Vitalik Buterin today like we used to, regularly in 2014-2016, I would tell him this. No, this is how the game is played. You created Ethereum, now the largest development-driven ecosystem in the blockchain space. It grew and grew and grew I’m sure beyond your initial imagination. So, you have a responsibility to grow with it. The community is not asking the Ethereum Foundation to change its mission or what it fundamentally does. We are asking it to do better than it did 6...

The journey from a token launch to a self-sustaining token-based economy is far more complex than it is often made to seem. A major issue in this space is the misinterpretation and misuse of the term Tokenomics, leading to short-term hype cycles that often overshadow the foundational economic principles necessary for long term viability.

I asked Grok-2 to simply write a post based on my tweets of the last 10 days. The following is an unabridged version. I was quite impressed, and decided to turn it into a post. The subject was dominated by feedback given to the Ethereum Foundation and the Ethereum ecosystem in general. Based on your recent tweets and replies over the last 10 days, it's evident that you, William, have a keen interest in the Ethereum ecosystem, particularly around the dynamics between Layer 1 (L1) and Layer 2 (...

There is a precedent for the upcoming White House-led heavy hand in technology direction and influence. In 1997, President Clinton recognized the importance of Internet commerce as an emerging arena and appointed Ira Magaziner as the e-commerce czar. Magaziner drafted the famous manifesto, The Framework for Global Electronic Commerce which set the wheels in motion for a swift adoption of e-commerce and the ensuing US global leadership in the era of Internet Commerce. The notable tenets of thi...

In 2003, when Information Technology (IT) was commonly perceived to provide a definitive competitive advantage to large enterprises, Nicholas G. Carr, editor-at-large of the Harvard Business Review penned a bombshell seminal essay, “IT Doesn't Matter.” He challenged IT’s value and argued: “as information technology’s power and ubiquity have grown, its strategic importance has diminished." Carr advised companies to approach IT investment and management differently. That was a watershed moment ...
