Ethereum @ 10: A Decade of Innovation & Milestones

EtherWorld's retrospective marks Ethereum's tenth anniversary by listing key milestones from its July 30, 2015 Genesis block through July 2025, grouped into four periods. It highlights the Frontier mainnet launch in 2015, the 2016 DAO exploit of about $50 million and the emergency hard fork that followed, and the Merge, which transitioned Ethereum from Proof-of-Work to Proof-of-Stake on July 20, 2022. Later entries cover the Shapella withdrawals in April 2023, Dencun in March 2024, and Pectra in May 2025.
