Promote with Leviathan NewsEthereum Foundation's GPS team published a 71-page primer for governments and institutions arguing Ethereum is neutral public infrastructure for payments, identity, registries, tokenized assets, and public records. The strongest sell is security and institutional depth: EF cites March 2026 OpenZeppelin data showing roughly $76B in staked ETH, a $50.7B cost to finalize a fraudulent transaction, zero outages since 2015, $159B in stablecoins, and $15.2B in tokenized RWAs on Ethereum. It is a policy pitch as much as an education document, drawing a hard line between ownerless Ethereum and alternative L1s including Solana, BNB Smart Chain, TRON, Canton, and Ripple.
