Ethereum Daily October 7, 2025 Reading today’s Ethereum Daily felt like watching the ecosystem quietly mature Every upgrade, every project from ZKSync’s Atlas to Rhinestone’s Warp shows how Ethereum keeps evolving beyond just code. It’s less about hype now and more about infrastructure, accessibility, and creativity. People are building tools that make the chain feel more human smoother, faster, more connected. And honestly, that’s what I love about this space. You can sense that everyone’s still experimenting, still curious, still trying to make something that lasts.
Well done
