On Wednesday at the Nasdaq in New York City, the bell rang to close the market, celebrating his new company Sharplink Gaming (SBET) and the tenth anniversary of the founding of Ethereum. Sharplink is one of many companies that have been established in recent months amid growing corporate interest in digital assets. The company's ETH strategy is managed by a few Consensys employees. Since ETH has risen by about 1,200,000 points since the ICO in 2014, it is hard to understand why the company is not interested in ETH. These assets have now become a coin, supporting the most used blockchain ( known as the "world computer" ), and after 10 years, it has begun to fulfill its initial promise. Paul Brody, head of blockchain at EY, said: "Ethereum has far exceeded what I thought today, and we are barely scratching the surface of all the use cases I was thinking of." "The future of Ethereum is an ever-expanding future, as it will not only become financial infrastructure, but will ultimately become infrastructure for all businesses." The world's second-largest blockchain began in 2013, when young crypto whiz Vitalik Buterin pitched the idea of a platform similar to Bitcoin on which applications could run. If Bitcoin was trying to make the currency itself decentralized and resistant to censorship, why couldn’t anything on the internet be made so? Fileverse founder Andreas said: "Ten years ago, Ethereum was a revolutionary idea. Today, it is the meeting point for many revolutions on the internet." Shortly after, Buterin published a white paper in 2013 summarizing his vision. Then in 2014, a crowdfunding campaign was conducted, which was the second largest campaign on Kickstarter at the time, to provide funding for early development. Before anyone realized, Ethereum had begun. Since its official launch on July 30, 2015, some of Ethereum's biggest supporters are still amazed at its occurrence after ten years. Bill Hughes, senior advisor and global regulatory affairs director at Consensys, said: "I don’t think you could launch Ethereum today." "This requires a specific time frame, suitable ideal volunteers, and a commitment to explore the completely unknown common ground between computer science, economics, and psychology. We already have a short window that can give opportunity to decentralized software and the infrastructure processing structure, and its work is in some ways a miracle." Some problems are just experiments and numerous difficulties within Ethereum, after which many critics – even supporters – repeatedly declared that the network was dead. Of course, there is also the DAO hacking incident, which is the basis for the controversial rollback process to recover millions of stolen ETH. But at the same time, there are regulatory hurdles, increasing competition, very difficult upgrades, and sometimes it is likened to changing airplane engines mid-flight.
