Just crossed with this Leon Tweet talking about a new Ethereum record.
While this timeline keeps us busy with politics and macroeconomics dramas, thanks Trump -.-, Ethereum has been doing what it does best, shipping improvements without hype. As you can see in the chart above, Ethereum mainnet throughput is not sitting around ~2.5 Mgas/s, which is a new all-time high.
For context, Ethereum has been at roughly ~1.2 Mgas/s for years. This is not a random spike or a temporary burst these are stepwise and deliberate increases that actually stick.
This is important because throughput is basically Ethereum's breathing room. More gas per second means more blockspace and more blockspace means more apps, more users and more activity without instantly nuking fees every time usage picks up.
This is exactly how you scale a global settlement layer without turning it into a casino every time the network gets busy.
This happened thanks to steady improvements to execution, block building and efficiency. It is the kind of progress that looks boring until you realize it compounds. This also changes the narrative around fees that are insanely cheap now leading to a very usable chain.
Ethereum team keeps working in silence while evolving it into the next level to make it ready to win the next decade. More throughput. More apps. More real usage.

Ethereum just hit a new throughput ATH (~2.5 Mgas/s) and nobody is paying attention
