There are 1.7 Trillion USD in circulation. If we want Ethereum to match that demand, the price of Ether will have to grow by 85x.

There are $73 T in stock market assets. If we want to generate permissionless synthetics of these assets on Ethereum, they need to be collateralized by Ether, and will require Ether price to increase by 3650x. The same is true for the global money supply.

If we want a permissionless world, where humans communicate value through a trustless platform, the value of Ether needs to scale to meet this demand. Right now, Ether and Ethereum serve the needs of a small niche population of dedicated believers and the value of Ether is high enough to do so.

However, If we want to onboard the next 1-Million, or 1-Billion, users to Ethereum, Ether will have to increase in price to support the economic activity required by permissionless/trustless financial applications.
