Joseph Lubin is building the bridge between Ethereum and the real world.

So many people think the early Ethereum founders are legends that either moved on to other things or are simply gone. Vitalik Buterin is still guiding Ethereum today, Charles Hoskinson created Cardano and Gavin Wood created Polkadot. However one of the Ethereum creators is working on a different path forward, connecting Ethereum to the real world. He is none other than Joseph Lubin.

As ElonTrades said on Twitter, Joseph Lubin is not chasing hype cycles or competing with Layer 1's. With ConsenSys, MetaMask and recently Linea he is building the infrastructure that bridges Ethereum to the banks, businesses and governments. This is not the flashy side of crypto, it is the part that makes institutional adoption possible. Linea is Lubin's Layer 2 project and it is still in its early stage but already has $425 million worth of value in circulation and growing. The difference is that it is focusing on compliance, scalability and usability, these are the things that traditional finance really needs. While most crypto bros worry about coin prices Lubin's team is laying the bricks for a financial system on Ethereum in the background.

Ethereum is going mainstream, this will not be like another hyped bull cycle. This cycle looks like what Joseph Lubin is doing: slow and structured integration into the world's biggest financial systems. Once that transformation is finished, Ethereum is no longer 'crypto'.. it becomes infrastructure.
