Ethereum

In the world of crypto, Ethereum is the source of innovation, where DeFi, NFTs, Layer 2, and numerous new technologies were created. One of its co-founders, Vitalik Buterin, is a key opinion leader in the crypto world. Ethereum launched a series of important upgrades to transition from proof-of-work (PoW) to proof-of-stake (PoS), which may help to break down the Blockchain Scalability Trilemma and makes Ethereum a “ultra-sound money”.

Ethereum's Midlife Crisis: Why Token Inflation Persists Despite Burning $7.3 Billion

Since Ethereum transitioned from PoW to PoS, it introduced a burn mechanism through EIP-1559 to achieve deflationary goals. However, by 2025, its supply is still increasing, with an annual growth rate of 0.805%. Despite a significant amount of ETH being burned, the issuance still exceeds the amount burned. Influencing factors include network activity, transaction fees, technical upgrades, and market competition. The challenges Ethereum faces include the conflict between technical ideals and business realities, the decreasing appeal of the staking mechanism, and pressure from the regulatory environment. Future development will need to balance efficiency, fairness, and regulation.
