After years of pilots and experimentation, he said large financial institutions are increasingly treating public blockchains as production infrastructure rather than emerging technology.
"A year and a half ago it was proof-of-concept, dip your toe in," Raman said. "Now it's: we need to jump in head first and use public chains just like we all use the internet."
The shift reflects a broader change in how Wall Street views Ethereum. Stablecoins may have been the industry's first institutional use case, but Raman says the conversation is expanding to tokenized stocks, bonds, real estate and investment funds. Ethereum's dominance in stablecoins, liquidity and institutional deployments has created a network effect that continues to attract traditional financial players.
He said his view is that Ethereum is currently in a transitional phase where the infrastructure has largely been built, but the scale of adoption has yet to be fully reflected in the asset itself. As more tokenized assets migrate onchain, he believes the market will eventually reevaluate ETH's role as the asset securing the network.
The substrate for the financial system can't have a party controlling it," he said. "The network is universal. The pieces are all there now. Let's hand it off."
Rather than acting as a central coordinator, Raman believes the foundation should focus on maintaining Ethereum's core values — security, censorship resistance, privacy and open standards — while continuing work on long-term priorities such as zero-knowledge technology and quantum resistance.
Ultimately, Raman said, Ethereum's success will be measured less by price and more by adoption.
The highest calling for any blockchain is to have users and sustainable assets and actual utility," he said.
