How big is that second order effect?

Like, am I correctly identifying that it's actually like somewhat large in the positive second order effect number?

Yeah.

One, you know, idea I've had is that, you know, Ethereum and all the research that we have invested in over the years, hopefully is one big contributing factor to like kind of restoring the brand of crypto by helping the world overcome some like generational challenges as you've as you correctly identify, you know, you know, crypto doesn't really have the best brand at this present moment.

Hopefully, with some of these sci-fi tech advancements, this Manhattan Project that Ethereum has been working on, we don't just improve the nature of our own blockchains, but we improve the nature of the world around us.

And the second order effects upon Ethereum as a brand, as an ecosystem, ETH price is benefited downstream of all of that.

Ansgar, this has been a super educational episode.

I really appreciate you coming on here and giving me and the Bankless Nation the time about the ZK EVM.

I think, you know, broadly, the crypto industry is looking for reasons to get bullish about something.

I think this is a very valid thing to be excited about and to be bullish on.

And so I'm trying to rally the troops around the ZK EVM fork just in mindshare and education.

And I think you've done the job I've hoped we could do here on the episode today.

So I thank you for that, sir.

We'll make sure your Twitter is in the show notes on YouTube or Twitter or wherever people are listening to this podcast.

Ankar, thank you so much.

Thank you very much.

Bankless Nation, you guys know the deal.

Crypto is risky.

You can lose what you put in.

But nonetheless, we are headed into the future.
