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.

SpaceX's tokenized stock launched on Solana the same day it listed on Nasdaq. That wasn't an accident. And it might be the most important infrastructure story in crypto this year.
Backpack Securities and Sunrise DeFi simultaneously launched SPCX — a 1:1 backed tokenized SpaceX equity — on Solana the same day SpaceX began trading on Nasdaq at $135 per share. Each token is backed by a real SpaceX share, custodied by Backpack, a regulated US broker-dealer, with full ACATS/DTCC redemption into any US brokerage account. CoinDCX
Let's unpack what "1:1 backed" actually means here. This isn't a synthetic. It's not a perpetual future. It's not an IOI certificate. Someone buys the real shares, holds them in a regulated custodian account, and issues tokens that represent that actual equity. You can redeem your token for the real stock anytime.
Sunrise distributed SPCX into Solana's DeFi ecosystem through Meteora's liquidity pools, which manages more than $2 billion in total value locked. Trading was available 24/7 from day one of the Nasdaq listing. CoinDesk
Why Solana specifically? Speed and cost. Solana processes transactions in under 400 milliseconds at fractions of a cent. When you're building tokenized equity infrastructure that needs to match stock market price accuracy in real time, you need a chain that can actually keep up.
RWA.xyz shows tokenized stocks at $1.68 billion in distributed value, up 39% over 30 days, with $3.63 billion in monthly transfer volume. CoinGape
The race to become the default chain for real-world asset tokenization is the most commercially significant competition in all of crypto. SpaceX Day 1 on Solana is a signal about who's winning it.
