On Feb 19, 2024, CoinEx organized a Twitter Space and brought together experts to discuss the upcoming Dencun upgrade for Ethereum and its wide-ranging implications. The speakers included ArkStream Capital’s Investment Director, Chung, Web3 Latam Hub’s CEO, Cristobal Pereira, and the CoinEx research team.

The key issues for Ethereum’s upgrade, as highlighted by Chung, the Investment Director at ArkStream Capital, “lie in the timing of execution and the ability to sustain excitement amidst competitive pressures, with other blockchain networks capitalizing on Ethereum’s slow progress by offering faster solutions, thus stressing the importance for Ethereum to efficiently implement its upgrades to retain its market position.”
Bullish Outlook for Ethereum

Latin America, for instance, has a thriving Ethereum community, emphasizing the importance of users and developers in the ecosystem.'”

As Cristobal stated, “We are very excited, we are bullish in terms of improvements and all of the things related with, with the Ethereum ecosystem.” Overall, the speakers emphasized Dencun’s transformative effects in cementing Ethereum as the dominant smart contract platform.
