Ethereum’s $10K Moon Mission Ignites as New Community Foundation Launches

Ethereum just strapped rockets to its price ambitions—and the countdown to $10,000 starts now.

Fueling the surge? A freshly launched community foundation designed to supercharge adoption. Because nothing screams 'bull market' like another layer of decentralized governance.

The playbook? Simple: Mobilize the hive mind, stack the development firepower, and let the 'number go up' theology do the rest. TradFi analysts are already sharpening their 'told you so' speeches.

One hedge fund manager muttered through his cigar: 'At least this pump has better whitepapers than my SPAC portfolio.'

What is the Ethereum Community Foundation?

Cole emphasized that the ECF’s mission is to fund projects aimed at strengthening the Ethereum ecosystem.

The ECF website stated that the project distinguishes itself from the Ethereum Foundation (EF) by focusing on initiatives the EF has been unable or unwilling to pursue.

According to ECF’s website:

“ETH price has been overlooked for too long. The ECF is here to change that. We are mission focused on growing its value through education, funding, outreach, and ecosystem support.”

To achieve its $10,000 ETH goal, Cole explained that the ECF WOULD take a more direct approach in supporting ETH holders and fostering the ecosystem’s growth.

This includes funding projects that aim to enhance Ethereum’s infrastructure, collaborate with governments and institutions, and prioritize actions that maximize ETH value and minimize the issuance of new tokens.

He also pointed out the importance of ETH’s value, stating that the price is about more than mere speculation and actually plays a vital role in supporting validators, securing the network, and enabling ETH to handle global transactions.

According to him:

“ETH to 10K isn’t a meme. It’s a requirement, a benchmark, a mandate. A $1.2 trillion market cap makes ETH competitive with gold’s monetary role. Price isn’t just speculation. It funds validators. It secures the network. It earns ETH the right to settle global value.”

Meanwhile, the creation of the ECF follows criticisms of the Ethereum Foundation, particularly its decision to sell ETH earlier this year, which some believe contributed to a dip in the asset’s price.

In response, the EF has introduced a new leadership team and is now utilizing a more community-aligned approach, including lending ETH for stablecoin liquidity through platforms like AAVE to avoid further sales.
