The Ethereum Investment Framework: History, tech, economics, ETH price targets, and more!

On this episode of the Fundamentals podcast, we welcome back Michael Nadeau, who runs the DeFi Report, to deepen our understanding of valuing blockchain networks.

He discusses why he was inspired to create the framework, provides a high-level view of its contents, major components, and explains his approach to valuing Ethereum. In addition, this episode explores the various challenges and key learning points encountered while creating the framework, with multiple analogies and perspectives for understanding this new asset class.
