The Ethereum E.T.F is coming. So what is the best narrative for Eeth, at least for

0:07.7

TradFi, for Wall Street? Welcome to another bankless takes. David, we're going to have a

0:11.4

pitch-off today. What's in store for

0:13.4

today's episode? We're to do what I think Bankless does best, which is help define,

0:18.5

help shape the narrative for Eath, but this time for an audience that we don't typically talk to when we pitch eith.

0:25.4

We have, I think, previously talked about how to pitch eith to the crypto native, to the people who really get it.

0:31.2

But what about the people who just want to understand why they should buy the

0:35.1

etheorem E. T. F. Which means they're not taking self-custody. They don't necessarily

1:14.8

Winner gets bragging rights, which I'm sure you're familiar what bragging rights are,

1:19.4

but bragging rights is also a one of one po-ep nFT that we're going to make our designer

1:25.0

our designers currently designing and either Ryan or I will be the

1:29.5

holder of the bragging rights po-app nFT as a result of the bankless citizens vote.

1:35.7

And I would like to say from peeking and speaking from how I feel, I do not want to be the

1:40.8

non-holder of the bragging rights Po-AP. I would like to be the

1:44.0

holder of the bragging rights Po-AP. That's just how I feel. David, not gonna lie, man,
