No Intelligent person can do research into ETH and the conspiracy surrounding the Ripple case and not realize there is a conspiracy. keep your head firmly fixed inside of your anus. I'm not here to convince you of anything, mk

SeriesWild136

BTC and ETH have proven to be reliable investments with promising growth potential.

_pondering_insomniac

I would say that there's more big money defending ETH

BortlesChortles

One of my favorite market analysts has been promoting granny stocks recently. BTC and ETH are similar for me

Level_Nonbottom

Im that case i wouldn't worry to much. Just be patient and ETH will reward you :)

CFTC already claimed BTC and ETH as commodities, multiple times. SEC didn't forget...

lj26ft

Imagine being 3 years post Ethgate and believing all the nonsense about Ethereum. A group of JPM and Goldman Sachs Devs just magically got together and created ETH. Go back to meming the outline of Vitalik's package ETH people love deifying JPMs poster boi. News flash there is a well documented conspiracy around Ethereum.

PenaltyFickle5699

I'm not so sure about ETH (I hate the fees) so I keep a 90/10 BTC/eth ratio.

CFTC already claimed BTC and ETH as commodities. Looks like SEC does not want to have that fight

Can’t wait to get off from fiat mining so I can buy more BTC and ETH.

That is because those projects are, in fact, securities. ETH belongs on that list too. Any PoS project, any project with VC backing, any project with an ICO, any project with developer rewards, any project with foundation “treasuries”, any project that is controlled by a centralized entity… they are all securities. BTC has none of those things, hence why it is clearly a commodity. Going forward, the projects that were 100% fair launched with no pre-mines, no ICOs, no dev-rewards/treasuries, and no centralized control will be the chains that survive. This is what crypto is all about, but people have been spending the last half decade trying to turn crypto into fiat with more steps.

Oheson

The Democrats and the SEC do not care about fundamentals. They are on a mission to destroy crypto in order to distract from their FTX connections. ETH and BTC will be next. It does not matter if they are or are not securities.

Moon prizes are: 1st - 600, 2nd - 300, 3rd - 150, and Best Analysis - 500. > Ethereum has drastically changed in the past year now that it has rebranded itself as **Consensus/Settlement layer** for other Layer 2 Execution/Rollup networks. It is no longer trying to be a monolithic blockchain by itself. Because of this shift in design, many of its former CONs are no longer major issues. And many of the CONs that still exist often have a beneficial sides. > > I discuss the CONs of Ethereum and their impact on its users here: > > ## CONs > > **Gas Fees** (major): > > The biggest complaint for Ethereum is its network gas fees. Every transaction needs gas to pay for storage and processing power, and gas prices vary based on demand. Gas price is very volatile and often changes 2-5x in magnitude within the same day. ERC20 transfers are used for a large percentage of cryptocurrencies, and it's the reason much of DeFi is extremely expensive. If I wanted to send ERC20 tokens between exchanges, it's often cheaper to trade for XRP, ALGO, or some other microtransaction coin, transfer it using their other coin's native network, and then trade back into the original token. Basically: use a coin on a different network to avoid fees. > > Typical transaction fees for Ethereum were [between $2-10 over the past year](https://etherscan.io/chart/avg-txfee-usd), but they have shot up to $50+ several times in 2021. > > And that's just for basic transactions. Anyone who has tried to use more complex smart contracts like moving MATIC from Polygon mainnet back to ETH L1 mainnet during a time of high gas fees mid-year in 2021 saw $100-$200 gas fees. Transferring ERC-20 tokens (often $20-50) is also more gas expensive because it can't be done through native transfers like on the Cardano network. It's impractical to use swaps like Uniswap for small transactions due to these fees. > > In particular, One/Many-to-many batch transactions are extremely gas-expensive using Ethereum's account-based model compared to Bitcoin's and Cardano's UXTO-based model. [This batch transaction on Ethereum](https://etherscan.io/tx/0x0fe2542079644e107cbf13690eb9c2c65963ccb79089ff96bfaf8dced2331c92) cost over $5000 while [a similar eUXTO transaction on Cardano](https://adapools.org/transactions/e586c6340ee9e60a6c64f447feffe5f89bdabc7741666ecaa681081957938f56) only cost $0.50 in fees. > > On the other hand, these fees provide Ethereum long-term economic sustainability and resilience against DDoS and spam attacks. > > **Competition from other Smart Contract networks** (moderate): > > Ethereum has enjoyed its lead as the smart contract blockchain due to first-mover advantage. But there are now many efficient smart contract competitors like Algorand, Solana, and Cardano. Ethereum is now facing much competition. Who wants to pay $20 gas fees on Ethereum when you can get similar transactions for under $0.01 with Algo and Solana or $0.30 transactions with Cardano? > > Fortunately, the amount of competition is limited because Ethereum is positioning itself as a Settlement layer whereas these other networks are monolithic networks. All monolithic networks will eventually run into scaling issues due to long-term storage and bandwidth limits. It will really depend on how successful Ethereum's Layer 2 rollup solutions will be. > > **Future uncertainty about Layer 2 solutions** (major): > > Ethereum's long-term success is dependent on the success of its Layer 2 solutions. > > These Layer 2 solutions are still extremely early. Even after a year, L2 has a very fragmented adoption. The majority of centralized exchanges currently do not support Layer 2 rollup networks. A few have started to support Polygon, which is more of a Layer 2 side-chain that saves state every 256 blocks than a Layer 2 rollup. Very few CEXs allow for direct fiat on/off-ramping on L2 networks, which puts those networks out of reach of most users. > > Many of these Layer 2 networks (Arbitrum, Optimism, Loopring, ZKSync, etc), are not interoperable with each other. You can store your tokens on any specific L2 network, but they're stuck there. If you want to move your tokens back to Layer 1 or to another L2 network, you have to pay very expensive smart contract gas fees ($50-300). Eventually, there will be bridges between these networks, but we could be years away from widespread adoption. > > Fragmented liquidity is another huge issue. Each of these L2 networks has its own liquidity pool for each token it supports. You can store your token on the the L2 network, but you won't be able to trade or swap much if there are no liquidity pools for that token. Eventually, there will be Dynamic Automated Market Makers (dAMMs) that can share liquidity between networks, but they are complex and introduce their own weaknesses. > > Both Optimistic and ZK Rollups are handled off-chain and require a separate network nodes or smart contracts as infrastructure to validate transactions or generate ZK Proofs. They are very centralized in how they operate, so there's always the risk that their network operators could cheat their customers. By now, the community seems to agree that ZK rollups are the future rollup solution to decentralized L2 networks. There is only 1 notable instance of Plasma (Ethereum to Polygon network conversion), and no one uses it anymore since the Ethereum-Polygon bridge is easier to use. The biggest competitor to ZK rollups are Optimistic rollups, and those take too long to settle back to Layer 1 (1 week) and are still too expensive to use (20-50% of the cost of L1 Ethereum gas fees for transfers). > > **ZK Rollups** require special infrastructure to generate ZK Proofs. These are very computationally-expensive, potentially [thousands of times](https://vitalik.ca/general/2021/01/05/rollup.html) more expensive that just doing the computation directly. To reduce the cost, they are done completely-centralized by specialized servers. Thus the cost of a ZK Rollup is cheap at about [$0.10 to $.30](https://l2fees.info/). But even at $0.10 per transfer and $0.50 per swap, these are still at least 10x more expensive than costs on Algorand and Solana. Users will have to decide whether the extra cost and hassle of using an L2 platform is worth the extra security of settling on the more-decentralized and secure Ethereum L1 network. > > **Ethereum Proof-of-Stake merge is arriving later than competitors** (moderate): > > The ETH PoS Beacon chain has been released, it's a completely separate blockchain from ETH and won't merge with the main blockchain [until later this year](https://decrypt.co/78690/ethereum-2-staking-tops-21-billion-merge-horizon), giving its competitors plenty of time to provide FUD. We still don't know how successful the merge will be. Currently, stakes are locked, preventing investors from selling. We don't know what will happen to the price once staking unlocks. > > **MEV and Dark Forest attacks** (minor): > > [MEV](https://np.reddit.com/r/MPlankton/comments/rs4wp2/the_dark_forest_of_cryptocurrency/) is actually a pretty big issue for networks with high gas arbitrage and mempools like Ethereum, but most casual users will never notice hostile arbitrage. When you broadcast your transaction to the network, there are armies of bots and automated miners that analyze your transaction to see if they can perform arbitrage strategies on your transaction such as front-running, sandwiching, excluding transactions, stealing/replaying transactions, and other pure-profit plays. "Dark Forest" attacks have reveled that bots are constantly monitoring the network, and they can front-run you unless you have your own private army of miners. > > **Final Word** > > Overall, I still think the PROs outweigh the CONs for Ethereum in the long-run due to its first-mover advantage and the long-term sustainability of the Ethereum network. ***** Would you like to learn more?

Survivaleast

No telling on the current situation, but it has helped me time and time again to go against majority fear. Most applicable being in 2020 when ETH went sub $100 and everyone was saying they’d wait to buy in ‘single digits’. Never cared much for Binance, but they’re loaded enough to mount a strong defense. For now, the immediate reaction is fear - which has been a great money maker historically speaking.

Knaeggebrott

Only 2 of the 3 planed exchanges opened. Only 10 Cryptos are available. BTC, ETH and DOT should be the safest, after the attack on Crypto by the SEC today.

Existing_Web_1300

I think they’ve already mentioned ETH as a security and that’s why it wasn’t mentioned here.

pet2pet1982

XMR/BTC like ETH/BTC feels good, if irony detected. You told about Binance twice, while all MUST NOT even call that name anywhere.

GuyWithNoEffingClue

ETH is almost halfway back to where it was before 💪🏻

Oheson

ETH will be next on the list.

Wastedyouth86

Mmmm now do i convert my matic into ETH.

STP_VEGAS

The randomx itself works as a security measure in that it limits the amount of hash power accessible by a single source. There is a reward even for small miners, it may not be profitable when factoring electrify cost, but still much cheaper that using BTC or ETH.

open-now

ETH resist very well

BIGDADDYCRYPTO6900

Makes sense. ‘’3. With the expectation of profit’’ is why like you said 99% of the market will fill these conditions. BTC is definitely commodity so I feel safe saying BCH, LTC, Doge, etc are as well. Ill say XLM Stellar will be a commodity as well though its not a 100% certainty. ETH is 50/50 imho.

Fuglypump

Makes you wonder who in the SEC owns ETH because they neglected to mention it. They don't give a shit about whether or not these currencies are securities, they just use the accusation of it as a way to manipulate the market.

BirdSetFree

BTC, ETH are the only guys i invest into nowadays

piggleii

ETH leading the crypto recovery.

ersleid

>As if “my belief” in eth is gonna change anything… lol Change what? Dude, I'm talking about holding something you firmly believe is going down. It doesn't matter if it's ETH. If I bought McDonald's stock, then it goes down after a some time, but during that I obtain knowledge that makes me conclude my previous decision (to buy McD stock) was wrong, then I own it up and move to something else before I lose out even more. Every day I hold that mistake is a day that could have been put to better stocks. >Weird crypto people… as the years go by the more I realize its a bagholding and dca paradise cus nobody makes money in this crap You said it yourself: nobody makes money here. So why are you still holding if it's just gonna keep on going down? Yes you are at a loss now, but you can move it to stocks now and avoid crypto's further downside 🤔

Judges_Your_Post

So I guess that implies ETH and BTC aren't considered securities :)

hamberdler

>The top ETH killers Good lord.

Umilik

Huh? ETH and XRP are the only greens left in my portfolio. Even BTC is red.

piggleii

Kind of a piss poor dump TBH. I had a whopping 2 ETH limit orders hit.

mesutdmn

My funds are in BTC/ETH, I am not allowed to panic.

DMugre

The man can't even say yes or no to ETH being a security, I wouldn't take this seriously at all.

ersleid

The dude is always out with similar comments every time crypto drops. For as long as I can remember. If he is to be believed, he went in heavy in ETH at 2021. Yes, it is a considerable loss, but I'd hoped anyone would have been used to it by now. After almost 2 years. We've been in a bear market for almost 2 years...

badfishbeefcake

I don't understand how ADA can be a securities. But if it becomes like XRP and US CEX stop transactions on those token, it will be bullish as hell on BTC and ETH.

ryryrocco

So glad I traded all my BNB for BTC and ETH back in Jan and Feb. I knew something like this was going to happen eventually with binance. I actually did pretty well with BNB over the years and ended up +375%, but it was just getting too risky to HODL anymore.

ersleid

But you don't believe in ETH. Or crypto for that matter. Then why hold? If it dumps more (and it probably will) you'll be complaining again. Didn't you comment earlier today that you should have bought Apple stock instead? Then ask yourself: do you think stocks will perform better than crypto in the coming months? Based on what I think is your perception that crypto is trash, then your mind's answer to that question should be yes. Then why are you still holding crypto if you think it's trash, it's gonna dump at the slightest bad news (and mostly it does), while there are other opportunities out there you think are better?

BlubberWall

SEC has always given ETH a pass, as shown in the hinman papers revealed by the Ripple lawsuit. I’m still a big fan of ETH but it definitely makes you wonder who in the SEC was an early ICO investor

Smiling_Jack_

I've been in this space far too long to panic over anything like this. The last time I legit panicked in crypto was Mt. Gox imploding. I don't touch alts (save for ETH) until after the halvening, and these transition years are nothing more than DCA time for the blue chips for me, scooping up extra during downwards volatility events. Gotta play the long game in crypto, and disregard the volatility along the way.

Dharmahuasca

I wonder if the SEC will one day make a list of the coins that aren't securities. The moment they post that list; mecha mania bullrun. I hope it's only BTC, ETH & DOT lol

Umilik

ETH is down 60% from ATH. BTC is down just under 60%. Even XRP, one of the best performers of the bear market, is down 70% since its 2021 high (granted the SEC's case against it had severe negative consequences in summer 2021).

Maxx3141

But if more people panic, that means more cheap BTC and ETH for me...

flarept1

Gary still has no balls to call ETH a security too. Bunch of clowns

coachhunter2

You realise the SEC absolutely could claim ETH is a security?

Umilik

When you actively trade, it doesn't matter what the overall market movements are so much. I actually made more money on ALGO than I did on ETH during the bull run, as I actively traded ALGO while simply holding ETH.

MinimalGravitas

> The top ETH killers. Which of those are 'ETH killers'? If you look at any meaningful metrics Solana and Cardano don't come anywhere close, Polygon is part of the Ethereum ecosystem, SAND and MANA are deployed on it. Cosmos maybe, they are 3rd place in terms of developers, but are behind Polkadot, which didn't get mentioned. I wonder if your narrative is based on anything real or are you possibly not basing it on any evidence?

gdzs122

Now Moons need to fix his place at three like btc and ETH at 1 and 2

lj26ft

I've been telling people for 3 years the ETH promoters want a monopoly for Ethereum. All the proof is public information. JPMORGAN has the most to lose out of any business in the world from crypto innovation. They own Consensys and created Ethereum.

reversenotation

Always the way, a black swan event like this and the market nose dives. For ETH and BTC this isn't a bad time to buy but ... there might be better 👀

VicBear93

Surprised ETH isn't on that list lol.

redflexiseal

Once again BTC and ETH not mentioned. Either they’re preparing a massive juicy cake of a lawsuit for those 2, or they’ve accepted that they won’t be able to defend their stance again btc/eth being a security

Umilik

Both are a grey area, as yes, they're essentially investment vehicles for their respective exchanges, but they're also ETH equivalents on their respective blockchain ecosystems.

Nathanv92

Man they really want ETH to win huh? The top ETH killers. These coins are going to end up like XRP where they are in a legal battle for years and it hinders their growth

Perfect_Ability_1190

Smart money leaving ETH. They know it can’t scale.

vika1995

So you are carrying a big bag of ADA that is higher than the ETH?

Tasigur1

We all know who will win this in the end. Fucking BTC and ETH

I'll probably be exit liquidity for anyone else, but I'll keep my ETH and HODL like forever.

CarltonFrater

This is a great buying opportunity for ETH

Bladeyy21

While both sides suck, the left are more the fascists in its purest sense. Trump's SEC did go after Ripple but they said ETH wasn't a security. Current SEC is seemingly going after the entire space. Ron DeSantis in particular has made some very pro-crypto comments in recent times. Trump recently introduced NFT's (on the Ethereum network I assume). All the while Liz Warren and Biden admin launches attack after attack on crypto. Republicans would be so much better for the space.

VariatCA

They're working on it lol. Just had to wait for the wave of panic-selling to stabilize. I got some nice limit-orders during that! BTC @ 25.6, ETH @ 1795 and Matic @ .83. I had spent the last week wishing I loaded up more at those prices not too long ago.

Umilik

For the second pay period in a row, I was gonna skip my DCA, but...it's hard to resist the chance to average down on everything (except BTC, ETH and XRP, which I'm still in profits on).

SeriousGains

If you’re down 99% you likely only have yourself to blame. No one is down 99% buying BTC and ETH.

One of the benefits of BNB is making those fees even lower – by as much as 25%. **Using BNB to pay for transaction fees can save you up to 1/4 of your money** on transactions. It’s a big incentive to hold some BNB. > > **IT IS DEFLATIONARY** > > In 2021, Binance implemented two important changes to BNB burning mechanism. > > First, [Bruno Upgrade v1.1.5](https://www.binance.org/en/blog/binance-smart-chain-bruno-upgrade-v1-1-5/) took place on 30 November. It introduced real-time burning mechanism. It is similar to [ETH London Upgrade](https://medium.com/@eric.conner/fixing-the-ethereum-fee-market-eip-1559-9109f1c1814b) \- some of the gas fee collected by validators is burned. As of 15 June 2022, [more than 90 000 BNB were burned](https://twitter.com/BurnBNB). > > Furthermore, on 23 December 2021, Binance announced and implemented **BNB** **Auto-Burn** protocol. It replaces quarterly burns which were based on the profits Binance made (they committed 20% of their profit to buy back BNB and then burn it. There were [17 quarterly burns](https://www.binance.com/en/blog/ecosystem/17th-bnb-burn-%7C-quarterly-highlights-and-insights-from-cz-421499824684902908)). Now, the process is automated, which makes it more transparent and predictable. The core idea has not been changed, however, the process will stop when the number of BNB coins in circulation is lower than 100 million. > > **MANY TRADING PAIRS, STAKING, FARMING AND OTHER USES** > > As an official coin of Binance, BNB also offers a **multitude of trading pairs**. All transactions made with BNB are lightning **fast and secure** since it’s based on one of the most secure blockchains – Ethereum. > > There are also many options of **staking** BNB on Binance for a very good APY or participating in **Launchpools** (farming new tokens) and **Launchpads** (Initial Exchange Offerings (IEO) - buying new tokens). > > BNB is **accepted by some service providers**, e.g. HTC, trip.io, travala.com, BitTorrent or PureVPN. > > Last but not least, BNB can be used to convert “leftovers”. Very often when you sell a coin, a very small amount of it is left in your wallet. On Binance, you can **convert small amounts of coins** (called “dust”) into BNB. > > **TWO BLOCKCHAINS THAT WORK SIMULTANEOUSLY** > > BNB operates on two chains, the above mentioned **Binance Chain** and **Binance Smart Chain** (BSC) which was launched in September 2020. While Binance Chain is responsible for transactions made on Binance DEX, BSC was designed specifically for smart contracts, DeFi and dApps. It quickly became **one of the biggest blockchains**. It is compatible with Ethereum allowing other projects to transfer easily from ETH to BSC and escape high gas fees on ETH. > > This dual blockchain approach combined with the **Proof of Staked Authority** consensus algorithm (a mix of share proof and authority proof) makes it much more scalable than Ethereum and enables faster and cheaper transactions. While Ethereum runs around 9 000 nodes/validators (before the software bug back in the end of August 2021), BSC needs only 21 validators. > > It is also worth pointing out that Binance allocated $100 million for projects that launch on BSC. > > **DECENTRALIZATION AT ALL COST?** > > The main argument against BNB is that it is centralized. And it’s impossible to deny the fact that BNB indeed is centralized compared to Ethereum and many other projects. But every stick has two ends. This is what Changpeng Zhao, Binance CEO, has to say about (de)centralization: > > [Many people think of decentralization as absolute; you are either decentralized or not. I think that in reality, there is a gradient scale from centralization to decentralized. Often, a better question is: how decentralized should we (exchanges, societies) be, now and in the future? If decentralization simply increases freedom but decreases security and ease-of-use, there is a point where it becomes a net negative, and may not be worth it.](https://www.binance.com/en/blog/from-cz/cz-on-centralization-vs-decentralization-301982828007075840) > > If decentralization is also about freedom of choice, then maybe being able to choose a centralized blockchain(s) should be accepted. > > \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ > > **^(Additional sources:)** > > [^(https://www.binance.com/en/bnb#COIN-BURN)](https://www.binance.com/en/bnb#COIN-BURN) > > [^(https://www.binance.com/en/bnb#BNB-RIGHT)](https://www.binance.com/en/bnb#BNB-RIGHT) > > [^(https://www.binance.com/en/support/announcement/2af5831727164545b8a2c665fae8bc04)](https://www.binance.com/en/support/announcement/2af5831727164545b8a2c665fae8bc04) > > [^(https://finance.yahoo.com/news/binance-coin-bnb-why-interesting-110049570.html)](https://finance.yahoo.com/news/binance-coin-bnb-why-interesting-110049570.html) > > [^(https://www.investopedia.com/terms/b/binance-coin-bnb.asp)](https://www.investopedia.com/terms/b/binance-coin-bnb.asp) > > [^(https://trading-education.com/pros-and-cons-of-investing-in-binance-coin)](https://trading-education.com/pros-and-cons-of-investing-in-binance-coin) > > [^(https://guarda.com/academy/blockchain/what-is-binance-smart-chain/?utm\\source=Reddit&utm\_medium=Social&utm\_campaign=CryptoCurrency-BSC-article)](https://guarda.com/academy/blockchain/what-is-binance-smart-chain/?utm\source=Reddit&utm_medium=Social&utm_campaign=CryptoCurrency-BSC-article) > > [^(https://www.finextra.com/blogposting/20815/binance-and-regulatory-scrutiny-changing-times-for-the-crypto-market)](https://www.finextra.com/blogposting/20815/binance-and-regulatory-scrutiny-changing-times-for-the-crypto-market) ***** Would you like to learn more?

This guy is the actual creator of Ethereum. +65% of the ETH codebase written by this dude and he is a JPM dev that created Onyx and Quorum for JPMorgan.

All January-April gains for most coins except BTC & ETH are going back to January prices… what a joke.

Mediocre_Piccolo8542

You should dig deeper, instead trust blindly a guy who got caught lying several times, and was called a pathological liar long before his Cardano time. Cardano was promoted as casino coin in Japan, while Charles was described as “genius mathematician” and referring to himself as mathematician back then - till he got caught that all this was a lie. He is not doing it anymore, strange, isn’t it? Everyone should Google it before touching ada. Tokenomics of ADA are another lie. Billions of ADA which went to Emurgo were basically wasted, but unsurprisingly the guy behind the casino ICO became one of the leading figures of EMURGO, weird coincidence… Moreover, no transparency regarding the ADA share of founders. The 20%+ was alone for founding entities only. Charles and insiders are holding probably way more than that, since they could “buy” it with BTC privately on “free market”, BTC which would go back to them anyway. There is no transparency what happened to the BTC from the ICO. The only thing you probably noted was Charles referring to himself as a billionaire every time ada price went through the roof. Yeah, ada cultist are gonna argue that Charles was rich before. There might be some true to that, he received Ethereum founders share after all, but he lied also about it claiming he “gave it away”, since founder of Cardano sitting on a pile of ETH would be a bad look. Not saying tokenomics of another projects with 50% founding entities allocation are great, but at least you get some transparency. There are probably way more stuff Charles lied about and is hiding from the public.

True but he said ETH wasn't a security. Gary is seemingly going after the entire space

Squabbles1234

If you are "for the tech" the only coin you should be interested in is ETH, the most functional, used, and traded crypto in the world.

mediumraresteaks2003

So like real talk, I only have about $100 in ETH staking on Binance, should I transfer that out to another wallet now just to be safe or what a smart move?
