1/ 🎉 Happy 10th Birthday, @ethereum! 🎂 From one blockchain family member to another, @LiskHQ here, celebrating the chain that paved the way for us all. As an Ethereum L2, we're honored to build on your foundation. Let's rewind to those wild origins that sparked Web3.
Thread Time! 🧵
2/ It all started with @VitalikButerin's 2013 whitepaper, scribbled in a Toronto basement, dreaming of a "world computer."
Then: the 2014 presale. ETH at 2,000 per BTC. A forgotten bargain that funded the revolution.
And Devcon 0 in Berlin! A handful of devs like @gavofyork hacking prototypes. Pure magic before the world knew.
3/ Remember the Olympic testnet in 2015? Weeks of stress-testing with "bounties" for bugs, or the Frontier launch on this day, mining the genesis block amid cheers and code marathons.
And that Parity multisig saga in 2017, locking away ETH forever, but teaching us unbreakable lessons in security, thanks to pioneers like @ethereumJoseph.
Resilience defined!
4/ Crazy times: @CryptoKitties jamming the network like a viral fever dream, birthing NFT culture; ICO fever turning whitepapers into wonders (and warnings); flash crashes on exchanges testing our mettle.
Yet, from Homestead to The Merge, you've evolved. Community-forged, decentralized defiance at its best. 💜
5/ But Ethereum, the best is ahead.
Pectra upgrades, infinite scaling, a multiverse of L2s thriving together. At Lisk, we're channeling that spirit to boost Web3 in High-Growth-Markets.
Fast, scalable, interoperable.
Accessible.
Ethereum, you're old enough to kick off the true revolution. Sharper, reaching even further and totally relentless. We're ready. Let's do this.
Here's to the next decade 🚀🔗
