Ethereum Is Winning—So Why Is ETH Still Undervalued?

Vivek Raman and Danny Ryan are the CoFounders of Etherealize.

In this episode, we speak with Etherealize about their highly touted team focused on marketing, business development, and product on behalf of Ethereum. Despite Ethereum's dominance as the most trusted and secure blockchain for DeFi, tokenization, and institutional adoption, ETH remains undervalued so we get right into the weeds about how they believe we can fix the disconnect between Ethereum the network and ETH the asset. Plus, we get an inside look at the conversations they're having about Ethereum/ETH with Wall Street investors and governments!
