Ethereum Real World Economy
summary
Stablecoins drive steady five‑year growth in on‑chain payments, with most real‑world flows happening as Tether on Tron dominance rather than on Ethereum; Stripe buys Bridge (a ~1.5‑year startup) for $1.1 billion acquisition, concrete evidence incumbents want crypto rails. Ethereum uniquely enables new primitives — prediction markets and quadratic funding — and rollups already reach ~one‑cent, one‑second transactions, while merchants and Binance apps act as de‑facto banks in countries like Turkey and Argentina.
