Only one has any value, and it's BTC. The point is secure value exchange without the need for a trusted third party. It uses enormous amounts of computational energy to do so, and is by far the most powerful computer network in the world. The rest of it is trash. Especially ETH

chantiegalapati

When $ETH 3k?

CH_patron

These comments here are peak stupidity 🤣 you will make a 5x with most alts. Not with fking BTC and ETH. I remember in 2020 this was a serious crypto sub. Now its just clowns yapping

Michael-Ryder

That’s a pretty aggressive portfolio for a “new bull run” setup. Curious why you went this heavy into smaller caps and skipped BTC/ETH completely — is the plan to rotate profits later or hold these through the whole cycle?

Roadrunner44143

I don’t believe in another alt coin bull run. Maybe BTC ETH and a few other will see a bull run again but that’s about it

CG-Saviour878879

You have separare BTC and ETH accounts?

chainglance_cm

Good distinction, the asset itself was never really the risk, it’s what you’re doing with it. Same ETH looks nothing alike sitting in a wallet vs sitting in an LP vs backing a loop. Contracts, bridges, and liquidation conditions are the right things to count for risk. Tracking and taxes are really just the paperwork version of that same complexity showing up later, more moving parts while you’re in it usually means more of a mess to untangle when you’re reconstructing cost basis after the fact. That’s the exact problem we built Chain Glance to solve. Tracking position state across all of that instead of just reading transfers, so the mess doesn’t pile up until tax season.

Samsara_is_pain84k

Scam people that believe they're investing early in the next great thing. I would bet the vast majority of people have lost some and probably a lot of money in crypto. Especially in the last six years. The bs influencers have been claiming BTC will end the year at $100K since 2020. ETH at $5K.

ubermensch1001

What's interesting though is that ETH was trading at a similar price range to that of the summer of 2023, alts collectively haven't done anything except bleed compared to Bitcoin since 2021. However, I'm thinking this will change in the not too distant future, the setup that makes the most sense to me is a major alt season after retail has been completely shaken out, which is exactly where we are at right now.

ubermensch1001

I do recall buying ETH under $100 in late 2018 and a bit over this in late 2019. Crazy to reflect back on this.

Instant promissionless settlement. If you own assets you know why it's important. Try to move 500k from brokage to brokage for arbitrage. Try to balance large offshore accounts. Try to buy a realstate for cash. Try to live in a third world country and own some equity in Europe/USA. All these things take days if not weeks, require large 3rd party fees and usually is extremely complicated due to various regulations, sometimes impossible. I am from Europe, I can't own QQQ or JEPI, I don't have access to a lot of various instruments and ETFs. With perpetual futures on let's say ETH I actually can.

NMoney007

Not financial advice, but let me share my data. I built a 30-factor scoring system (on-chain activity, tokenomics, liquidity, whale flows, etc.) that grades 1,000 coins — here's how your list reads on it right now: Your current holds all score in the top tier: BTC 76, ETH 78, SOL 81, LINK 77. Solid and defensible — which is a compliment. On your two candidates: ZCash grades 78 — same tier as your majors — and it's been one of the strongest upward movers in my data for weeks (score climbed from \~61 while the price ran; privacy sector's been quietly leading). Hyperliquid grades 68 — good, not elite; strong on liquidity and usage, weaker on tokenomics-type factors.

ClerkPrestigious7395

I used to think crypto was an investable asset (bought $2k of ETH @ $40). For the past 6 years I've moved to trading. Other then BTC or ETH, I don't think that any crypto is worth a long term investment. Step back and take a 10,000 foot view. If there was a legit use case for it, would it not already be in place by now? Aside from "some obscure bank is doing a test run"? Crypto's been around long enough to go through a few bull/bear cycles. It still isn't being used as an everyday asset or tool outside of the crypto industry. It's like financial navel gazing. That's why I've switched to leveraged trading. As long as it's volatile I can make money long or short. I don't care about any narrative or the technology. Other than BTC or ETH, I don't have any idea what any of the crypto that I trade in does.

azblazer007

BTC maybe a little ETH if feeling adventurous

CoinRabbitFinance

Hey! I would separate the asset from what you do with it. Holding ETH, putting ETH into an LP, and looping ETH as collateral may start with the same coin, but they create completely different workloads and failure points. CoinRabbit is a straightforward example of that distinction: someone can simply hold BTC, or use the same BTC as collateral for liquidity. The second choice adds LTV and loan terms to manage even though the underlying asset has not changed. So yes, taxes and tracking matter, but I would also count how many contracts, bridges, reward tokens, and liquidation conditions each strategy adds.

Bitcoin 100 pct, we are t the bottom of the cycle so no DCA. Sooner or later you will find that all alts go to zero, sooner or later. ETH may be an exception but it will not outperform btc long term.

Objective_Digit

ETH is not blue chip. Just looking at a long-term ETHBTC chart will tell you that.

If Amazon cloud services fail, ICP would still be running. The BTC and ETH already on its chain would be safe. So ICP is a no brainer for me.

After almost 7 years in crypto, i learn the hard way that anything more than ETH & BTC is gambling.. That being said, I hold a little bit of Solana, Cardano, and Algorand, only successful alt buy was Solana at 8$ Cheers

My man. We gotta get more peoplle on board. This will probably be the final call. If you’re not in you’re out.

The XRP symbol on their field I found a page and was hoping I could shed some light into these kids lives so they could have financial freedom potential before even leaving college. They’re all ignorant af. Every one of them was just “shitcoin” “BtC and ETH” “ripples a bankrupt company”. Like where tf do they even get these narratives??

Kimboslav

During my time at crypto I tried quite a few exchanges and platforms. For start I would recommend [ether.fi](https://www.ether.fi/@c5d13ee4) as crypto Neobank. You can deposit fiat, use their card in google/apple wallets for ordinary stuff and get 3% cashback in crypto. Also buy ETH there and than trade on Dexes like UNI.

KateR_H0l1day

I've lots of Alt's and a couple of memes coins, very small amount of ETH just for fees! Plenty of BTC & it's derivatives, MSTR/ASST/STRC/SATA/MSTY/BTCI/XXI/MTPLF/GNS. But that's just me. 🙄

Salsatime117

Ya for me that’s why I keep it simple. Tax tracking in the US for crypto can be very annoying to be honest. So I stick to the big boys like BTC and ETH as low effort solid investments. For the “lottery ticket” higher potential gains, I stick with SPX6900. The whole basis behind this coin is to just buy and hold. DCA. Stop trading and just believe in something. I just see time and time again, trading memes and rotating alts not only will result in failure for 95% of people, but it creates sticky tax situations that become hard to navigate. Buying an asset and holding is what I’ve found to be the most successful strategy over all these years of doing it. Ya it’s not quick gains but it’s more rewarding in the end and more fruitful. Hope that helps!

derondigital

Wrong, there are actually crypto with Utility. BTC is the king, don't get me wrong. But trust me, if you decide to get deep into crypto, you will realize there is actually more to it. SOL is great, ETH is great. Just to name two, these tokens has utility and DApps on their blockchain that allows you to make greater investments and receive way better yields than a bank with stable coins such as USDC. You got to do some more research but yes, I love BTC and it's great for investing.

Salsatime117

I hold blue chips like BTC AND ETH, and the rest in SPX6900. Just everything about the tokenomics, community, holder stats, lack of insiders and KOLs resonated. The mission as well. SPX6900 feels like early BTC to me and I’ve been around in crypto since 2013. I never tell people what to buy. You should come to your own conclusions. But something to look in to if interested!

SectorialBush

My 2 cents about the evaluation: The 3% max daily loss which is in all plans makes it very difficult to take risks high enough to make significant gains to pass the 9-12% profit requirement. You make 1% gain. You take 1% loss. Stop-loss limits have to be very low. That way you can get drained by fees quickly if it keeps dropping and you are trying to catch the falling knife. Sure it's easy when only way is up like it did couple weeks ago when we had the ETH pop from 1900 to 2500. My highest with the 5000 plan (I took the 90/10 split) with the 5450 profit target was 5334.30. Then it started dropping and I soon found myself under 5000. It looked better for a short while but then we had the resuming of US bombing in Iran. Eventually I was little under 9 dollars from the 4850 max drowndown limit and final trade got me under the limit. Basically you are already done at under 4900 unless you get very lucky. My advice is if you are going to do it, pay the extra to get 6% drawdown limit in Starter plan.

I'm sorry you fell for this, but crypto *per se* isn't the issue. If you stack sats in a cold wallet, and stake your ETH natively or with a decentralised staking protocol such as RocketPool, there's no way for you to be scammed or hacked. Not exactly sure what happened to you, but he must have gotten ahold of your seed phrase somehow. With ETH and similar chains, it's also possible to approve a malicious smart contract that can drain your funds without ever knowing your private keys. Also, Trust Wallet is not to be trusted. The best hot wallets are BlueWallet (for BTC) and MetaMask (for ETH/SOL).

chainglance_cm

Anonymity is probably not realistic starting out. Most centralized exchanges (which is where most beginners should start) require KYC, so your identity gets attached from day one. Even staying fully non-custodial, taxes will eventually link your identity to your holdings once you file. For building wealth, there are basically two ways: hold or trade. Holding means buying BTC and/or ETH and sitting on it for years, while trading is a real skill on its own, similar to day trading stocks, and it takes real time and losses to get good at. It's basically a full-time job, not a shortcut. And unlike other skills that can make you money, trading requires you to be emotionally resilient, the lack of which is how 90% of traders lose money. I would personally recommend you to start by learning how blockchains work, how BTC and ETH differ, and how wallets work (custodial vs non-custodial). Then slowly dip in with a small BTC buy and expand from there as you learn more. As your portfolio spreads across chains, platforms, and coins, having a portfolio tracker like DeBank or Chain Glance for DeFi tracking and Koinly or Bitcoin.Tax for the tax side will save you a lot of headache.

Amddiffynnydd

I don’t think the money flows evenly across crypto. If CLARITY passes, I’d expect the first institutional money to favour assets with the clearest regulatory status, deep liquidity and existing institutional infrastructure so Bitcoin first, then probably established large caps such as ETH and XRP. After that, the bigger long-term beneficiaries could actually be the infrastructure: regulated exchanges, custody, stablecoins, tokenisation and networks that institutions can realistically build on. Smaller DeFi and speculative alts may rally on sentiment, but regulatory clarity doesn’t suddenly make every token institutionally investable. So for me: BTC first → regulated large caps → institutional infrastructure/tokenisation → broader alt market later.

Post is by: Bcom_Mod and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/bitcoin_com/comments/1w6ssl0/a_japanese_public_company_just_sold_every_altcoin/ [Remixpoint, a Tokyo-listed company, sold its entire altcoin portfolio on September 1](https://news.bitcoin.com/crypto-news/remixpoint-goes-all-in-on-bitcoin-after-5-54-million-altcoin-sale/). About 901 ETH, 13,920 SOL, 1.19 million XRP, and 2.8 million DOGE, all gone for roughly $5.54 million, booking around $743,000 in profit. What's left is only Bitcoin, roughly 1,506 BTC, and the company says both its holdings and future operations will now center on it. It's worth knowing that their ETH and SOL positions were generating staking income, about $188,000 combined over the prior period. Remixpoint looked at a diversified portfolio that literally pays them to hold it and decided concentration into a non-yielding asset was worth more than the diversification and the income. They chose the asset that pays nothing over the assets that pay something. That's the maxi thesis stated as a corporate treasury decision, and I find it genuinely interesting because it's falsifiable in public. The whole "Bitcoin only, everything else is a distraction" argument usually lives on Twitter where nobody keeps score. Here a listed company with shareholders and quarterly reporting just made the bet with real money, gave up yield to do it, and now has to answer to investors for whether concentration beats diversification. Every altcoin they sold has underperformed Bitcoin over most meaningful timeframes, ETH and SOL and XRP have all bled against BTC through this cycle, and the staking yield was nowhere near enough to make up the difference. A few hundred thousand in staking income means nothing if the underlying asset is down 40% against Bitcoin. Simplicity has value too. One asset, one thesis, one thing to custody and secure and explain to the board. Bitcoin has the deepest liquidity, the clearest institutional path, and no smart-contract or founder risk. If you believe BTC is the only crypto asset that survives every cycle, holding anything else is just tracking error. However, Remixpoint is selling diversification at what might be peak Bitcoin-dominance sentiment, right as BTC dominance sits near 60% and everyone's crowded into the same trade. Concentration cuts both ways. If an altseason actually arrives and ETH runs to Arthur Hayes's $10,000 target while HYPE and the rest rip, a Bitcoin-only treasury underperforms badly and there's no diversification to soften it. I think they're probably right over a long horizon and probably early on the timing. Bitcoin-only is the correct default for a corporate treasury that can't actively trade rotations, because most companies have no edge picking which altcoin outperforms and the honest historical answer is that almost none of them beat BTC across a full cycle. Giving up $188,000 in staking to avoid that guessing game is a reasonable trade to take. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

The way i see it you either DCA into majors - BTC ETH SOL - and look long term for slow gains Or you take big risks on low caps and try to hit some parabolic runs - of course you only put small money into these type of coins BTC shouldn’t feel any more risky than just buying index funds or metals tbh - we’re definitely at the point where institutional support is big enough that it’s not going away

Looks like $2500 is hard resistance for ETH. Looking forward to a pullback to retest $2k

wgcole01

*If* we're breaking out, then we'll experience cycles of upward momentum followed by draw downs. Over time, the times between peaks and troughs will shorten. Higher highs and lower lows each time. If BTC breaches its ATH, then we might actually be in a bull run. Watch the market. Look for rising ETH/BTC. Be prepared to jump.

domolishion

I have the same exact issue around the say time. Kraken support on reddit has said the same exact thing. I have 200 USH worth to withdraw and I can't withdraw it. I feel like its because ive actually made a profit a d they are waiting for BTC and ETH to tank again. Any updates on what to do? I even messaged on twitter!

Reasonable_Ad5611

Please never stop shorting. Otherwise ETH might actually drop.

NimbleNido

One way around this is MetaMask 'Swap', which is able to use your USDC balance as gas through EIP-7702 (Smart Accounts). You could 'Swap' a few dollars of USDC to ETH, it'll deduct from your USDC balance as gas & a small fee for doing this, & you'll have ETH to move your funds as you want. Just a solution if you don't want to / can't send more funds to your account.

West-Albatross6774

The easiest place for me to start, and what really got me into crypto, is looking at different sects and their tech. See what they are attempting to do, accomplish, and see what you think about that. I was able to build very strong conviction into a few projects I really like this way. I recommend starting with BTC, ETH, RWAs, and Data/Privacy. Many different ways to bridge off from there.

fattykyle2

My wife was clearing out my office about 2 years ago and tossed my Ledger into a bin. When I found it in the basement the screen was cracked and it did not work. It had on it 6BTC and 33ETH. At the time it was worth about $400k. I was horrified but I was able to buy a new one and recover it. The week between buying a new Ledger and using the recovery phrase was rough. A year ago (almost), I pulled half out and bought a vacation property. That home will eventually be my retirement home and I’ll sell our primary residence in 15ish years. It feels good to take one foot off the rollercoaster. Not telling you what to do by any means, but diversifying made me feel a lot better. Plus, I got to spend most of the summer at my lakehouse, enjoying the fruits of a 2014 hot tip.

mierwendy

ETH getting the first wave makes sense if capital flows into on-chain apps. Smart workflows could help coordinate the activity across protocols and services as that ecosystem grows. The bigger opportunity may be the infrastructure around it.

chainglance_cm

The SEC and CFTC put out joint guidance back in March classifying a batch of assets, and Grayscale already runs ETPs on things like Solana, XRP, Dogecoin, and Chainlink without CLARITY even being law yet. So a chunk of the "money flows to large cap alts on regulatory clarity" thesis might already be priced in through administrative action rather than waiting on Congress. The part of the bill that actually looks undercooked right now is the DeFi framework, since that's been the murkiest area for institutions wanting exposure without SEC enforcement risk hanging over every protocol interaction. If that section survives the final text, DeFi governance tokens and the infra plays around compliant on-chain access (custody, KYC rails, oracles) feel like the bigger surprise winners compared to BTC or ETH, which already have their institutional pathway sorted through ETFs. Also worth flagging the bill still hasn't cleared the Senate floor, there's a procedural vote scheduled for the 15th when they're back from recess, so this is still an if, not a when.

Last cycle, SOL did a 30x from bottom while paying up to 10% compounding APY along the way. Nothing came close while everyone complained about SOL or "no 🐂 for alts". There was.

Core holdings besides BTC should now be HYPE, SOL, HOOD, ETH. HYPE has been an obvious leading choice. Massive number of wallets and trading platforms not only integrating, but the largest like Phantom soon launching their own markets on HL. With majority rev burn.. come on. Been a no brainer buy. Anyone's guess if ETH as private money or Solana as the best chain for users will grab more attention this bull. UNI performing completely depends on capturing RH + Base activity. Most of this activity will be on RH L2 anyway. They win no matter what protocols dominate their L2. They win even without their L2. This and AMM rev share to token holders is garbage. All to LPs. RH L2 trench activity will eventually rotate back to Solana, but this isn't going to stop RH. SOL/ETH much easier to predict once Solana can actually get a SOL value capture proposal passed. Critical, but they already have the users. Don't fade either yet. X in profile

I would pick either ETH or Solana. Infact I’ll say Solana has a higher potential for a 3X unlike ETH at the moment

ket regime - when BTC sweeps and reverses, the alts usually do too. Effective n is closer to the number of distinct sweep episodes across the market than to 165 trades. Quick sanity check: group instances by week and look at expectancy per week. If two or three weeks carry the entire profit, it's regime, not edge. Two things would worry me more than the small n. First, point-in-time definitions. "Sweep first, then react" is only observable with hindsight. When price tags the old low you can't yet know whether it's sweeping and reversing or just breaking down. If the entry waits for confirmation of the reaction, part of the edge is repainting; if it doesn't, the 85% should include the breakdown cases. I'd re-encode the rules so each bar's decision uses only data available at that bar's close, then re-run before believing anything. Second, the samples aren't independent. BTC, ETH, SOL and ZEC on the same days are four looks at one market regime - when BTC sweeps and reverses, the alts usually do too. Effective n is closer to the number of distinct sweep episodes across the market than to 165 trades. Quick sanity check: group instances by week and look at expectancy per week. If two or three weeks carry the entire profit, it's regime, not edge. On your actual question: at n around 30 per coin the win rate is noise, easily +/- 10 points. Expectancy is the better number but even less stable because it's driven by the biggest winners. Test the fixed rule on coins you never touched and report per-month expectancy - that's the number I'd want before trading it.On your actual question: at n around 30 per coin the win rate is noise, easily +/- 10 points.

Post is by: Mr_Hodlerr and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: https://botsfolio.com/learn/order-block-after-sweep **What I tested** The pattern where price runs a prior swing low, grabs the stops sitting under it, and then instead of continuing down it reverses and pushes back up off the last down-candle before the move (the reaction zone). Entry on the return to that zone, stop below the sweep, fixed target. I wanted to know if the "sweep first, then react" sequence actually beats taking either signal on its own. **Results** Win rates landed around 85% across the four coins, on these counts: * BTC 1H: n = 54 * SOL 1H: n = 49 * ETH 1H: n = 33 * ZEC 1H: n = 29 Expectancy came out to +0.72R to +1.46R per instance after fees. For comparison, on the same data the two pieces alone were weaker: the reaction zone by itself \~83%, the sweep by itself \~76%. The sequence is what lifted it. **What I'm concerned about** * The samples are small (29 to 54 per coin). * It's one timeframe. Where's the methodology broken? Would an out-of-sample split or walk-forward change your read? Does the small n make the high win rate meaningless, or is the expectancy the number that matters more? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

I think it would be a broad rally, all majors going up, and things like ETH, SOL, HYPE, LIT overperforming. And maybe some old coins like LINK and XRP.

Crypto probably becomes more useful over the next 5–10 years, but not necessarily in the way people expect. Stablecoins and payments may see much broader adoption than speculative tokens, while BTC and ETH could increasingly be treated as separate categories with different use cases. AI could create more demand for programmable payments and machine-to-machine transactions, but it could also amplify scams and low-quality projects. Quantum is worth watching, although it seems more like a long-term infrastructure/security issue than an immediate threat.

AI/quantum may create volatility and technical challenges, but neither automatically kills crypto. Over 5–10 years, the strongest growth case is probably stablecoins, tokenized assets, payments and settlement infrastructure. BTC/ETH can still grow too, but for different reasons.

AI bubble popping would probably drag crypto down with it. The two have traded as correlated risk assets this whole cycle, same liquidity chasing both, so a real AI selloff triggers risk-off sentiment that hits crypto too. Not because of any actual technical overlap but just correlated positioning. Quantum is a real long-term risk, but not an immediate one. A sufficiently powerful quantum computer could theoretically break the elliptic curve cryptography wallets currently rely on, but credible timelines put that years out, and quantum-resistant cryptography already exists. Chains can migrate to it the same way they've handled other protocol upgrades before. The Japan/US debt situation is happening right now, it’s not hypothetical. The Treasury's been buying yen with dollars to prop up the currency, while Japan's been selling US Treasuries to defend the yen from their side, part of what pushed 30-year yields to a 19-year high recently. It cuts both ways for crypto. Tighter liquidity and higher yields usually pressure risk assets, crypto included. But sovereign debt stress like this is also exactly the scenario the currency-debasement case for Bitcoin was built around. Which effect dominates probably comes down to how disorderly this gets. On 5-10 year adoption, stablecoins look like the safer bet, real regulatory momentum and institutional infrastructure building around them right now. BTC and ETH holder growth is genuinely harder to call with any confidence over that horizon. Be skeptical of anyone claiming certainty either way.

AI popping doesn’t automatically kill crypto. They’re both high-beta liquidity toys, so if risk-off hits tech, crypto usually eats shit with it. That’s a flow thing, not “AI replaces Bitcoin.” Longer term, AI agents paying each other is a real use case. Stablecoins win that more than random L1s. Quantum isn’t a 2026 problem. If large quantum ever threatens current signatures, chains can migrate. The “quantum kills crypto next year” posts are mostly bag advertising. Don’t rotate into some “quantum resistant” coin because a YouTuber got scared. US debt and Japan drama are the same story: messy fiscal systems and liquidity shocks. Short term that can dump everything. Medium term it usually helps the “I want something outside the banking spreadsheet” pitch. BTC and dollars-onchain benefit more than 200 new ecosystems. 5–10 years: crypto as casino tokens can easily stay mid. Crypto as rails probably gets bigger. Stablecoin usage should keep growing. BTC/ETH holders can rise even while most alts go to zero. “More popular” ≠ every coin you buy moons. If you’re starting projects, pick something people already do (trade, pay, save) and don’t build a new chain because the old ones “need an ecosystem.” Most of those are just waiting rooms.

Another sidelined altcoin bagholder mad about the ratio, so the FUD is "Bitcoin's security is going to fail let's all buy ETH" [https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/ETHBTC/?timeframe=ALL](https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/ETHBTC/?timeframe=ALL) Look at the beautiful downtrend since 2017

Easy short here on ETH looking to retest $2250

Same. If the actual question is BTC vs ETH from here, I prefer expressing the underlying view directly instead of adding treasury-company dilution, mNAV and management execution on top. That's where Moon.com makes a lot of sense to me. You can take the BTC or ETH directional thesis directly and keep the trade about the asset rather than the corporate wrapper.

HODL ETH $10K EOY I swear on my mother.

Post is by: lookoutcrypto and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1w4grhw/most_of_the_big_top50_prints_lately_are_landing/ Been watching large wallet moves across the top 50 for a few weeks and the pattern that keeps showing up is timing, not size. The chunky accumulation prints cluster in the last hour or so of the US session, when spot books are thinner and a big order moves price more than it would midday. You see it most on BTC and ETH, but the mid-caps get the same treatment with less volume to absorb it. Practical takeaway for me: if I'm sizing into something, I'd rather do it into the deeper morning liquidity than get run over on a late-day sweep. I track this in a small tool I built called Lookout ($5/mo) if anyone wants it - [https://lookout-aaa-cb39.vercel.app](https://lookout-aaa-cb39.vercel.app), code 20cash for 20% off. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

What? The value of the blockchain's native currency would not effect the cost of tokenization expect for the transaction cost to validators. When you create an NFT on ethereum it is not pegged to value of ETH, as an example.

jekpopulous2

If you look at the current landscape ETH is the primary settlement layer for pretty much everything and most high-speed execution happens on L2s.

zinbeck

I sent you some. People are correct though and most wallets these days have a swap built in so you can easily swap for ETH or just about any token.

piggleii

I'd take what Tom Lee says about ETH with a grain of salt. But ETH might not actually do too badly this cycle. It's been beaten down so bad that it might surprise everyone.

b1mm3rl1f3

Disgusting levels of wealth for you then, because ETH hasn't spent 7 entire long years in a range with a $5k top just to breakout to $10k
