BMAN, the founding partner of ABCDE Capital, made a significant statement regarding Vitalik Buterin’s recently published article titled “Making Ethereum $3,331 Alignment Visible.” In his social media comments, BMAN emphasized that the Ethereum Foundation should adopt a more commercial approach, pointing out that Solana $249 has succeeded in enriching more individuals. According to him, true alignment lies in enhancing wealth for people.
Solana’s Commercial Power and Ethereum’s Future
BMAN suggested that the concept of alignment within the Ethereum ecosystem should be approached from the wealth enhancement perspective. He argued that while the Ethereum Foundation is strong in technology and values, it is not commercially effective enough.
Highlighting Solana’s success, BMAN noted that the blockchain network has enriched people significantly, demonstrating excellent alignment. He stated that Solana’s commercial strategy has provided gains for numerous stakeholders and made its ecosystem more attractive, implying that the Ethereum Foundation must undertake more commercial initiatives to offer greater returns to its users and stakeholders.
Vitalik’s Concept of Alignment for Ethereum
In his article, Buterin emphasized the necessity for various actors in the Ethereum ecosystem (client teams, Layer 2 developers, researchers, and local communities) to work harmoniously. He introduced the concept of “Ethereum alignment” to achieve this harmony, which involves projects within the ecosystem uniting under shared values, technology, and economy.
Buterin highlighted the importance of preserving the integrity of the Ethereum ecosystem by emphasizing decentralization and open-source values. In contrast, BMAN believes that for Ethereum to meet its objectives, it must create more commercial opportunities and ensure more active use of the ETH coin.
