In fact, the mandate was a pledge for a thousand years, right?
Yeah.
And I know that's somewhat tongue in cheek, but I think some of the defectors are just like the people departing are like, hey, but what are we shipping now?
What about... I'm alive today.
Yeah.
And we want this to be relevant like next year and the year after in our lifetimes.
And so not that Ethereum has failed on that entirely, but it hasn't succeeded in all of the ways that I think many of the believers thought it could and thought it should.
And there's a number of people who have said this.
I thought the EF was supposed to do all of these things, turn Ethereum into a global financial system, be kind of a padding for the ecosystem, work up the stack, not just at the protocol layer.
I think my take, though, David, is the EF is what it is.
You know, they are guarding the soul of Ethereum.
They're doing this crops thing.
That is a useful function.
They can protect Ethereum from corruption.
This is kind of the focus.
A thing for me is just like, I feel like the decisions of addition through subtraction and max decentralization, some of the structuralistness you see, the focus on crops, they're protecting Ethereum from corruption that you see with many other chains and many other crypto systems.
But they're not protecting Ethereum from irrelevance.
Right.
Totally.
And that to me, this is something you and I have talked about, but that to me is at this moment of time actually the bigger threat.
