Ethereum co-founder Grant Hummer recently voiced concerns about Bitcoin’s security, highlighting the potential vulnerability of its network and emphasizing Ethereum’s increasing role in financial infrastructure. In a May 14th statement, Hummer pointed to the high cost required for a 51% attack on Bitcoin, estimated at $8 billion or potentially lower if the budget falls short. This, he argues, necessitates a shift towards Ethereum as a more secure and stable alternative for finance. Experts agree with Hummer’s assessment of Ethereum’s potential in a financial ecosystem undergoing rapid evolution. 85% of RWA and most stablecoins currently utilize Ethereum. His argument emphasizes the difference between Bitcoin’s decentralized approach and Ethereum’s robust and adaptable architecture, which attracts institutional investment. This perspective has ignited mixed reactions from the crypto community; some Bitcoin proponents expressed skepticism while supporters of Ethereum cheered its growing acceptance by financial institutions.
