Why Ethereum First

The Cultural Epicenter

Ethereum is the birthplace of decentralized finance and the cultural epicenter of crypto innovation. From the earliest DeFi primitives to the most iconic community coins, Ethereum has consistently been where groundbreaking ideas take root and flourish.

Unmatched Liquidity

Beyond culture, Ethereum commands the largest on-chain liquidity in the ecosystem—a diverse pool comprised of both institutional capital and retail participants that continues to grow. This deep liquidity creates unmatched trading conditions and price discovery that fragmented alternatives simply cannot replicate.

L2 Trade-offs

While Layer 2 solutions offer cheaper and faster transactions, they come with trade-offs: fragmented liquidity scattered across multiple chains and the friction of bridging assets. As Ethereum L1 continues to evolve and innovate, users will always gravitate toward the security and unified liquidity of the base layer over navigating a patchwork of disconnected ecosystems.

The Most Trusted Settlement Layer

Ethereum is the world's computer and the most trusted settlement layer in crypto. The most significant community tokens and meme coins—besides DOGE—have all originated on Ethereum, a testament to its role as the primary stage for culturally significant launches.

Our Commitment

MakEther is built Ethereum-first because that's where the liquidity lives, where the culture thrives, and where fair launches matter most. While we are building across all leading EVM chains to meet users where they are, Ethereum remains our foundation and north star.
