Right now, ETH is being valued mostly by transaction fees.” There's an assumption “Bitcoin has already won store of value.” That framing misses the real upside.

![Etherealize CEO Vivek Raman: The Repricing of ETH as Money Could Start Pretty Soon "ETH is like BTC++ in that it's productive, it has yield -- which financial people love -- but also it's a store of value and used as collateral. It's basically used as money across the Ethereum economy." "It is an asymmetric bet that Ethereum will reprice from being valued like a technology company to becoming money. There is a potential 100x as that starts to happen." "It'd be wishful thinking to suggest an immediate 100x, but the repricing could start pretty soon. People now know what Bitcoin is. People obviously know what gold is. There is a need for a digital asset store of value or multiple of them. ETH is emerging more and more as that second pristine store of value asset, and we think it will become the primary one." "BlackRock just launched their staking ETF, so they're calling ETH a productive asset that's earning yield. Harvard just rotated some of their Bitcoin holdings into ETH. You're seeing the institutional allocations diversify, so it's starting now, and [Productive Money] is the thesis for it to really catch hold."

![Etherealize CEO Vivek Raman: Wall Street's understanding of ETH as "productive money" is starting to accelerate "BlackRock just launched their ETHB ETF for staked ETH, and in the marketing around that, they said ETH is an asset that actually generates yield. You're not just holding a digital asset store of value anymore. You're holding a digital asset store of value that has yield, and that starts to resemble how Wall Street thinks about US Treasuries." "[Wall Street] wants minimized counterparty risk, perfect collateral, and yield -- ETH packages that all together. Bitcoin was the original idea and is now understood as 'digital gold.' But the final form is what ETH is fulfilling as productive money." Michael McGuiness adds Stanley Druckenmiller as a datapoint who has called stablecoins (the vast majority of which are on Ethereum) "incredibly useful." "I assume our whole payments systems will be stablecoins in 10 or 15 years," Druckenmiller told Morgan Stanley. Mike continues: "That's the other aspect of what we mean by productive -- it's actually providing utility, and people are benefiting from it. It's not just pure speculation."

!["I used to be a bitcoiner. The transition to a new store of value only happens once every 3,000 years. That's the main prize -- just focus on that. But [security] is the criteria that ultimately convinced me to flip from Bitcoin to ETH." "I have a higher degree of certainty that Ethereum will be around longer [than Bitcoin]. The reason for that is because Bitcoin relies on proof-of-work, which is less efficient than proof-of-stake and doesn't scale with the value of the network. And as the block subsidy of Bitcoin halves every four years, it is increasingly becoming more and more reliant on transaction fees to fund the security budget paid to miners." "If you look at [Bitcoin's] security budget right now, about 0.6% of revenue to miners is transaction fees... The problem with that is if Bitcoin becomes 'digital gold', flips gold, and becomes a $30 trillion asset, but it only costs $10-20 billion to attack it, that's too asymmetric." "You want the security budget to scale with the market cap, similar to how countries spend a % of their GDP on defense. The more valuable something is, the more you need to spend to protect it." "Ethereum, with the Merge, migrated to proof-of-stake, which is fundamentally more secure because it's less reliant on transaction fees and it scales with the value of the network. If 1/3rd of ETH is staked and then you need 1/3rd of those ETH to censor the network, you're looking at roughly 10% of the total market cap as the cost to attack the network." "So if Ethereum flips Bitcoin and gold and becomes a $30 trillion asset, it'll cost ~$3 trillion to attack the Ethereum network versus Bitcoin at like $10 billion." "The other aspect here is that as AI hyperscalers invest more and more in AI, proof-of-work becomes increasingly vulnerable because the cost to attack the Bitcoin network is starting to look close to the quarterly CapEx these hyperscalers are spending on their data centers."
