For years, Ethereum was treated mainly as a speculative asset — something to trade, flip, or hold for price appreciation.

That narrative is quietly changing.

Today, Ethereum is increasingly behaving like a settlement layer rather than a casino chip.

Here’s what that actually means 👇

• Stablecoins are settling billions of dollars on Ethereum every single day
• Layer 2 networks are compressing activity and anchoring it back to Ethereum
• Institutions care less about ETH’s short-term price — and more about its reliability, neutrality, and uptime

Settlement layers are boring by design.
And that’s exactly why they matter.

Nobody speculates on TCP/IP — but the entire internet runs on it.
Ethereum may be moving toward a similar role in finance.

The market is still pricing Ethereum as a trade.
The infrastructure is positioning it as a backbone.

That gap won’t stay open forever.
