hyperliquid is basically printing money off this stuff and nobody talks about it because it's not a shiny new NFT drop or a meme coin doing 1000x. the rwa perp volume is wild though, 2T in a quarter is insane for something that barely existed a year ago as for ETH i think it helps indirectly cause more people using defi perps means more gas burned and more demand for the chain itself even if the price doesn't move much. the real winners are the platforms though no question

Never, BTC ans ETH holdings are partially being transferred to ZEC because of privacy and the limit supply

CRYPTO NEWS!!!!ADVICE. Never trust any MEME coin, "The fall of a dry leaf is a warning to the green ones." Basically, the hype of a MEME is numbered in minutes, hours or week and a new one is made smart people take profits before its all over. Never reinvest in MEME. easy to lose it all. Best invest is in lunch pad at an early stage. RADIO is a broadcasting MEME launcher on Robinhood chain, more development and update is required. PONS went to 1B USD in less than a month. To buy, you need to convert ETH into ETH with a yellow logo, the robin hood chain, and use the robin hood chain ETH to buy, not enough ETH means not enough robin hood chain  ETH

When i started in July of this year as a beginner i started with revolut, then learned revolut x existed and i wanted the same thing as you, to be exposed to more coins. I searched for exchanges eligible in EU and one of them was kraken... Basically i wanted an exchange that has more newer coins with smaller market cap in order to have a chance for a higher upside. Turns out kraken has more coins but not actually very new ones that i could have a very high upside but i stayed anyway.... The other thing that made me move to kraken is because on revolut x you can't transfer some coins for example from revolut x to kraken or other exchanges or to your wallet if you have one. So that's another reason i moved to kraken... Although i use both revolut x and kraken... i didn't sell my coins on revolut x, i just bought more of them on kraken and i have in both.... Kraken from time to time has promos giving away prizes, for example in july they had 1 million eu prize, and in august they had 15 ETH x 15 people... so it's an addon but it depends on the entries you have which are based on the trades you make... you basically have low chances if you don't put loads of money in to get more entries and essentially more chances while the promo is on and you entered the promo... Kraken has some negativity around it's name from customers as all platforms have... I didn't encounter any problems yet so am good.

ETH just like any other coin piggybacks on BTC‘s back. There might be weeks of over- or underperformance but overall it’s all pegged to BTC price movements. I wouldn’t expect a complete and continuous disconnect anytime soon. So, to answer your question: As soon as BTC decided to go into a full bull run, ETH is going to go towards 4k.

warmBlizzard20

Honestly, I think ETH needs its own narrative instead of just following BTC. If BTC keeps moving up, ETH usually gets a boost, but to really break and hold $4k I’d want to see stronger ETH ETF inflows, more demand for staking, and ETH starting to outperform BTC. If those things line up, $4k doesn’t seem crazy at all. The harder part is getting ETH to stay above it.

SenseiRaheem

I have no answers. Watching ETH performance since 2020 has been heartbreaking. Say whatever you want about “exposure to crypto via ETH in ETFs” or “lots of institutional adoption,” but nothing is really moving the needle lately.

So by your logic, ETH is a “participation token” too because users won’t have to personally hold it. You got owned so bad you went back to your old argument, which was nothing.

Survivaleast

Using social media and influencers as trusted ‘advisors’ to influence your positions. There is ETH and there is BTC. Anyone else is trying to offload their bags to become your new losses.

crazybird-thereal

The worst mistake is start trading (like daily trading). Except for BTC or ETH and maybe some solid project, everything else will just make someone else than you richer. For now the best start is use BTC as investement for future. You put your money on it once or DCA, then you forget about it, you wait long long time, and profit.

Best option is to buy USDC on paytrie.com Send it to a telegram wallet on the network of your choice. I do it on SOL as it has the less fees. It will automatically be swapped for usdt and becomes "networkless" in your telegram wallet until you send it to someone or withdraw to another wallet. You can then withdraw/send on SOL/ETH/TRC20/TON networks. It's basically giving you a free token swap and network swap. You can buy on Paytrie with interact e-transfer but it does require KYC. Transactions are usually processed within the hour.

And why did they do that? Because Bitcoin abandoned its promise. Everyone with more than 2 braincells knew this was the end of BTC as p2p cash. Take ETH for example. It only became its own coin because Core refused to add functionality to Bitcoin. Yet, programmability was already built in by Satoshi, yet core refused to develop it.

Post is by: coinsocialbase and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1wae293/ethereum_sentiment_data_shows_fomo_nearly_double/ Been digging through recent ETH discussion data and one thing stood out: FOMO is sitting at 20% versus FUD at 10%, a pretty clear two-to-one split toward the optimistic side. That's happening while ETH price action is clustered around the 1900 level, which seems to be acting as a psychological reference point for a lot of the conversation right now. What's interesting is the split in *why* people are bullish or bearish isn't really about price alone. The CLARITY Act and other regulatory/ETF developments keep coming up as a catalyst people are watching closely, alongside large whale wallet movements that traders are reading as either accumulation or distribution depending on who you ask. On-chain signals are getting cited by both sides of the argument, which tells me the market hasn't reached consensus on what those flows actually mean yet. The fact that FOMO is elevated but not overwhelming (it's not like 60/5 or something extreme) suggests cautious optimism rather than euphoria. Feels more like people positioning around a potential liquidity-driven move than an all-out hype cycle. What do you think is actually driving the whale activity right now, regulatory clarity expectations, ETF flow anticipation, or something else entirely? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Post is by: coinsocialbase and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1waam2o/ethereum_sentiment_is_oddly_balanced_right_now_20/ Been digging through the recent chatter around Ethereum and what stands out isn't a huge wave of hype or panic, it's how close the FOMO (20%) and FUD (15%) numbers actually are. That's a pretty tight gap, and it lines up with what's happening on the charts too: ETH consolidating between key levels instead of making a decisive move either way. The bullish side of the conversation is mostly institutional: ETF flows, large buyers accumulating, and people reading regulatory signals as a setup for a potential breakout. But the skepticism isn't coming from nowhere either, it's tied to the string of security incidents happening across the broader cross-chain ecosystem, which keeps reminding people that infrastructure risk hasn't gone away just because institutional interest is rising. What's interesting is that this isn't a story of extreme greed or extreme fear, it's almost a stalemate between 'big money is coming in' and 'this ecosystem still has real security problems.' That tension seems to be exactly what's keeping ETH range-bound rather than trending hard in one direction. Does it feel like institutional flows are actually strong enough to outweigh the ongoing hack headlines, or is the market just waiting for one side to blink first? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Post is by: coinsocialbase and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1wa72rp/ethereum_sentiment_data_shows_fomo_25_nearly/ Been digging through recent ETH chatter and something stood out: the sentiment split is sitting at 25% FOMO versus 15% FUD, which is a fairly wide gap for a coin that's stuck fighting overhead supply around the 1.9k level. Normally you'd expect more balanced or fearful sentiment when price is butting up against resistance like this, but the data shows optimism clearly winning out right now. What's interesting is where that optimism seems to be coming from. It's not pure price speculation — a lot of the cautiously bullish takes are tied to fundamentals: CLARITY Act regulatory progress, staking demand, ETF flow trends, and on-chain activity metrics. Meanwhile the FUD side of the conversation is almost entirely chart-based, people pointing at resistance levels and questioning whether a breakout is realistic given how much supply is sitting overhead. So you've got a split personality in the Ethereum conversation right now: infrastructure and regulatory narratives pushing sentiment one way, technical chart structure pulling it the other. That kind of divergence between fundamental optimism and technical skepticism is usually a setup worth watching, regardless of which side ends up being right. What do you think is driving more of the current ETH sentiment — the regulatory/on-chain narrative or the technical resistance story, and which one do you think wins out first? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Post is by: coinsocialbase and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1wa5wrt/ethereum_sentiment_data_fomo_is_only_sitting_at/ Been looking at how the ETH conversation is actually splitting up lately and the numbers are a bit more balanced than the headlines suggest. FOMO is sitting at 20% and FUD at 15%, which means the bullish accumulation narrative isn't translating into the kind of lopsided euphoria you'd expect given how much attention ETF inflows and institutional buying are getting right now. What stands out is how diffuse the discussion actually is. People are pointing to on-chain accumulation by large holders and framing it alongside AI-related demand for ETH, but there's a real counter-thread of users flagging resistance levels and possible breakdowns that could stall the momentum. So you've got a narrative of "smart money is loading up" running in parallel with genuine caution about price structure, and neither side is dominating the conversation. That 5-point gap between FOMO and FUD is close enough that it reads more like uncertainty than conviction. Usually when a coin has this much institutional/ETF buzz you'd expect FOMO to be running hotter, so the fact that FUD is still holding a decent chunk of the conversation suggests a lot of people are waiting for confirmation rather than already convinced. What's your read on this, does the accumulation story actually hold up when you look at how people are talking about it, or is the caution around resistance levels the more important signal here? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

I think we're partly arguing semantics now. If by "gamble" you simply mean putting capital at risk when the future outcome isn't guaranteed, then sure, Bitcoin is a gamble. But under that definition, buying an individual stock, gold, foreign currency, commodities or a speculative growth company is also a gamble. ETH, SOL, LINK, XRP, etc. gaining against BTC doesn't contradict what I said. I'm not claiming they can't outperform Bitcoin. I'm saying Bitcoin remains a major driver of crypto liquidity and sentiment. An altcoin can gain against BTC during part of a cycle while still getting crushed when the entire crypto market sells off alongside Bitcoin. Like, how many alts have reached their ATH or maintained close to it while Bitcoin was over 50% down? I'm sure some obscure ones have, but far more alts have failed to reclaim prior highs or faded into irrelevance after a cycle. That's what makes them a gamble in comparison. And I didn't say Bitcoin was a collectible. I brought up collectibles because they demonstrate the broader point that an asset doesn't need cash flow or earnings in order to have market value.

ETH chatter jumped to 399 mentions compared to its recent average of about 194.6, so roughly double the usual volume. What's driving it looks pretty specific: there's a notable whale transfer being discussed, large ETH moved between venues, alongside a high-reach bullish post predicting ETH could get back to 2k soon. There's also renewed talk about 'ETH season' and rally momentum building up in the conversation. The interesting part is that price during the spike hour was actually flat, not pumping, which suggests this is more chatter-driven anticipation than a reaction to an already-moving price. That's usually read as more organic than mentions that just follow a green candle. Whale transfers get noticed because large movements between exchanges or wallets often get read as signals, whether that's accumulation, repositioning, or just wallet management, but the market narrative tends to fill in the story regardless of the actual intent behind the transfer. Anyone else seeing this whale transfer being talked about, or is the ETH season narrative more just recycled hopium at this point? Curious what others think is actually behind the timing of this. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

The exact opposite. As we move into AI world nation state currencies will turn into monopoly money. Btc/eth are the future, 100 percent eth. Btc has some issues but it will eventually be looked at as gold. Gold is a bad investment , but its the stone nuts hedge against disaster. ETH is so intertwined in supply chain and smart contracts its use grows daily. Eth is horribly undervalued. When its 10k in the not too distant future you will kick yourself for not having exposure.

That's a pretty lopsided ratio, and the conversation driving it isn't random hype, it's specifically tied to whether ETH can clear resistance around $1,900. What's interesting is the split in tone even within the bullish camp. One side is focused on institutional money and ETF inflows as the thing that could actually push price through that resistance level. The other side is more measured, basically saying the inflows are real but the real test is whether ETH can hold above $1,900 once it gets there, not just touch it and fade. This kind of gap between hope and caution at a specific technical level is usually a sign that a lot of people are watching the same price zone and waiting to see who's right before committing to a stronger opinion either way. Low FUD doesn't mean no skepticism, it just means the skepticism right now is more "let's see if it holds" than "this is a bad setup." What's everyone's read on why $1,900 specifically has become the line in the sand for ETH right now? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Post is by: coinsocialbase and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1wa0asi/ethereum_sentiment_right_now_fud_is_running_10/ Looked at the last six hours of Ethereum-related tweets and the split is interesting: FUD sits at 25% versus FOMO at 15%. So more people are expressing worry or skepticism than excitement, but it's not a doom spiral either. The overall mood comes across as mixed-to-cautiously-optimistic rather than outright bearish. What's driving the fear side seems to be the usual suspects: volatility, resistance levels that ETH hasn't cleared, and negative headlines circulating. But the optimism side isn't nothing either, people are pointing to ETF-driven institutional inflows and rising on-chain activity (staking numbers coming up a lot) as reasons to think the setup isn't purely negative. It's basically a tug-of-war between traders who see accumulation happening quietly in the background and traders who are focused on price action just not confirming that story yet. What I find notable is that a 10-point FUD-over-FOMO gap doesn't necessarily mean bearish price action is coming, sentiment and price don't always move in lockstep, and sometimes elevated FUD shows up right before consolidation resolves either way. It's more a signal of uncertainty than a signal of direction. Anyone else noticing this disconnect between on-chain/ETF narratives being bullish while social sentiment stays skeptical? Curious what you think is actually driving the fear here, is it just price action lagging the fundamentals or something else people are picking up on? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

So on the surface that's almost a 10-point gap favoring bullish chatter over bearish, which usually signals traders leaning toward near-term upside expectations. But the actual content behind those numbers is more nuanced than the split suggests. People pointing to bullish catalysts are mostly talking technical breakouts and narrative-driven momentum, not fundamentals shifting overnight. Meanwhile the FUD crowd, even though smaller, is specifically calling out regulatory headlines and macro volatility as reasons to stay cautious rather than just generic bearishness. That's a meaningful distinction, it means the mixed sentiment isn't really bulls vs bears in the classic sense, it's more like short-term technical optimism running into longer-term macro nervousness. What stands out to me is that this isn't a euphoric, all-in FOMO moment for ETH, it's cautious optimism with real hesitation baked in. Sentiment splits like this often show up right before consolidation or a volatility spike, since the crowd is divided on time horizon rather than direction. Anyone else noticing this same tension between short-term technical bullishness and longer-term macro caution on Ethereum right now, or is this just noise? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

That's unusual because crypto sentiment data is normally lopsided one way or the other, especially in short windows like this. The qualitative side backs this up too. Traders are pointing to accumulation patterns, ecosystem upgrades, and supportive regulatory headlines as reasons for a possible breakout, but there's an equally vocal group flagging macro risk and the chance of a pullback. So you've got a genuine tug of war between "ETH is quietly building a base" and "don't ignore the downside risk" narratives, playing out at the same time rather than one side dominating. What's interesting is that neither the FOMO nor the FUD camp seems overconfident right now, the mixed 20/20 split basically mirrors the mixed commentary itself. That kind of equilibrium in sentiment data usually shows up right before a directional move, since crowds this evenly split can't stay undecided forever. What do you think is tipping the scale for you right now, the accumulation and upgrade narrative or the macro/pullback risk? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

You’re arguing that BTC is a rational speculation, not proving that it can't be considered a gamble. Historical halving cycles don't guarantee future returns….this is literally a gamble. \>Bitcoin doesn't determine the value of altcoins, but it still strongly influences the broader crypto market. If it crashes, everything goes with it for the most part, and vice-versa.  ETH, LINK, SOL, BNB and XRP have all gained against BTC itself. \>Lack of cash flow does not make something a gamble. Gold has no earnings or cash flow either. Neither do currencies, collectibles or many other non-productive assets people invest in. Gold has centuries of monetary, industrial and cultural demand. Bitcoin is also not a collectible lol Fiat** **currencies have value largely because they are established mediums of exchange and units of account, backed by governments.

FOMO sits at 20% and FUD at 10%, so bullish chatter is outpacing bearish chatter by a 2:1 ratio. But the bigger story is that neither camp is dominating the conversation, the majority of posts are neutral or mixed. What's driving the optimistic side seems to be a mix of technical breakouts (people pointing to ETH testing and exceeding key price levels), improving on-chain activity, and speculation around institutional involvement. On the flip side, the FUD crowd is mostly worried about reversals and macro headwinds, nothing coin-specific, more just general market caution bleeding into ETH discussions. What stands out to me is that a 2:1 FOMO-to-FUD ratio isn't actually that extreme historically, it reads more like cautious optimism than euphoria. When you see FOMO spike to something like 4x or 5x FUD, that's usually when sentiment gets frothy and disconnected from price action. This feels more grounded, chatter following price rather than leading it.

That tracks with a lot of posts framing this as an accumulation phase, with recurring mentions of institutional interest as a reason people are staying optimistic on Ethereum. What's interesting though is that this isn't a one-sided euphoria wave. A decent chunk of the cautious commentary keeps bringing up resistance levels and on-chain selling pressure, basically the idea that even if the broader trend looks up, there's real supply sitting overhead that could slow things down or trigger pullbacks. That's a more nuanced picture than pure hype, it reads like people expect grind-higher-with-friction rather than a straight line up. The combination of accumulation talk plus flagged resistance is a pattern worth watching, because it usually means the crowd expects volatility even within a broader uptrend narrative, not a clean breakout.

That's a pretty lopsided ratio for a coin that usually gets a lot of mixed reactions. What's interesting is the FOMO isn't just "number go up" energy. The recurring themes are tokenization, real-world asset (RWA) use cases, and new infrastructure being built on Ethereum. Those are more substantive narratives than pure price speculation, which is probably why the FUD side is so thin right now. That said, people aren't ignoring the near-term stuff either. There's still plenty of talk about resistance levels and expected volatility, so this isn't a case of everyone assuming a straight line up. So the overall picture is short-term caution mixed with longer-term conviction, which is a pretty normal setup but the FOMO/FUD gap is wider than you'd expect given all the volatility talk. Feels like people are separating the trading noise from the infrastructure story. Is the RWA/tokenization narrative actually driving fresh interest in ETH for you, or does it feel more like recycled talking points from previous cycles? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

chainglance_cm

Tech stopped being the bottleneck a while ago, fees are cheap, chains are fast, security's matured. But none of that matters if a normal person still has to understand what a seed phrase is, why they need ETH to move a token that isn't ETH, or which of their five wallets actually has the coin they want to sell. The real friction now is cognitive load. That's why you're seeing more tools built purely around simplifying the experience rather than adding new tech, things like account abstraction cutting out seed phrases, ETFs bring crypto exposure to traditional investors, or portfolio trackers like Chain Glance, DeBank, Zerion that let you see everything across chains in one place instead of hopping between five different apps just to check your own net worth. So my take, UX is the actual bottleneck right now. The tech's mostly there, most people just can't use it without a headache.

faisal_yk26

Fair, though it cuts both ways depending on what you mean. Stablecoin supply growing is genuine fuel, that's capital sitting on the sidelines waiting to buy something. Supply shrinking is the opposite, people cashing out to fiat. But the part that matters for a 4K target specifically is where that supply lives. Most stablecoin growth in the last two years went to chains that aren't Ethereum mainnet, so it can expand a lot without bidding up ETH itself. Fee revenue and burn stay flat, and ETH ends up a bystander to activity it used to capture. Which one were you pointing at?

newMoneyStyle

Pretty much agree, BTC with a bit of ETH is the safest bet.

newMoneyStyle

Algorand and Hedera really did feel promising a few years back, but the momentum just never came, and sticking with BTC and ETH as the core makes sense while treating Bittensor as a smaller AI-adjacent bet.

I’m much more careful with leverage now after getting burned by it before.One thing I have noticed is that an exchange mostly solves the trading and asset-management side. Actually using crypto for everyday spending can still involve another step. A lot of the time, you still end up converting it to fiat and moving it to a bank account or another payment method.So for me, crypto and everyday spending are still kind of separate things.Curious how everyone else handles this.

ICP and KAS!! ICP has more unique capabilities than any other chain. Tamper proof web hosting, AI compatibility, chain fusion (interoperability), caffeine AI (making your own apps with AI), and no cloud engines, which are basically backup servers so countries don't have to rely on US based oligopolies like AWS and Google. KAS has a much simpler/cleaner monetary thesis. It has BTC's fair launch and decentralization so you don't have to worry about a massive treasury dumping on retail. And it has robust POW security. It also has the scalability and fees of a true next gen L1. Best of both worlds. ICP is next gen ETH and KAS is next gen BTC!

It's not what I'm holding. I'm very high risk. But if someone asked me for advice, I'd recommend the following: BTC, ETH, XMR, DOGE

I’ve been trolling ETH for several years now, but I think it might actually make a comeback if the bull cycle well and truly resumes.

TheMourningDove

For hardline cryptography interests, I think ghostdag (and KAS) is still pretty interesting, and has little to do with Israeli government interests. ZCash is a known zero knowledge proof payment system used by government clients around the globe. With the global geopolitical situation being what it is, the run is easily and openly explainable. Your inclusion of the KAS chart ignores the fact that entire alt market shares largely the same chart. The downturn is not an Israeli crypto problem (as much as you might understandably want it to be). The downturn is manifest in crypto traders chasing gains in super hot stocks and crypto gains built by American, European, and Asian regulations creating a framework for institutional inflows into only the top crypto projects (BTC, ETH, Asian exchange tokens, to a lesser extent XRP. ) The first meaningful reversal seems to be forming right now in the alt market following the liquidity crisis of Oct 2025. The timeline is not abnormal and was predicted openly back in 2025. 12 to 24 months. Seems to be on track for now.

We are pretty heavy on BTC/ETH too, but lately we’ve been digging into some of the more speculative stuff on Robinhood Chain. Have put together a quick video on how we would allocate a $1k bag across a few of them and why we like this setup: [https://youtu.be/4vZ8jJMWZSg](https://youtu.be/4vZ8jJMWZSg) Definitely more of a degen/speculative play than a core portfolio though. Do your own research too.

hottoys2012

Ok I googled it, ETH around 122 million coins and can continue to increase

jasonmie

When BTC was sitting at 6xK, ETH was in the range of 17xx, now BTC is in the 7xK range, ETH is hanging ard 24xxK.. Maths be mathing...

Eastern-Pen8001

Tree fiddy is the most realistic price target i've seen around here the hopium in this sub is something else though, every cycle it's the same "ETH to 10k" posts and we barely crack 4

YaBastaaa

Imagine if zcash hits 3k and surpasses ETH. That would be such a slap in the face to etherum and other projects.

hottoys2012

Is ETH limited like BTC or can more be produced ? Bitcoin has max of 21 million coins what about ETH ?

faisal_yk26

ETH is around 2450 now. 4K means it has to go up about 60% in less than four months. That is a big move, not a slow drift. From 2450 that is 60% in under four months. the real catalyst is money moving from bitcoin into ETH, and that has not happened all year.

HoldCtrlW

Easy short on ETH here looks like hard resistance. Only looking for one last leg down

Traditional_Most105

If i had that much money and wanted safe approach i'd buy BTC ETH If i wanted more upside i'd buy SOL ETH BTC Dont know much about stellar but xrp i think there is a lot of hype into it which is not always good... In any case nobody here could rate this as objectively as you'd want to be rated cause most bet on BTC and ETH and the others including myself on coins we believe they might give us profit either long term or short term which again everyone is thinking their coins are the best... so people who comment negatively might be proven wrong on your portfolio and people who comment positively including yourself might be proven wrong again. Nobody knows what will happen. In the end its on how well you research, how fast you could see things or read news others might read too late, how well you could speculate before others start speculating and the part nobody has control over is how lucky you can be. Cause you might have done everything right and a negative development you have no control over might ruin your whole approach...

Suitable_Acadia_190

Me, yes. but my focus is on ETH as its strength is greater than BTCs since the lows. Blue were my buys that are all logged and timestamped on my trading view if you care so see their reasoning, etc. if interested https://preview.redd.it/zwd80dnbmznh1.png?width=2753&format=png&auto=webp&s=1ad94b761e5af2d8a17102baeb33099417c6a22a

As a follow-up, there was a DOGE wallet, and it was drained on the 1st at the same time as the ETH wallets. The DOGE drain may be more interesting than the others since the DOGE was cashed out after the transfer through FixedFloat. The three addresses: * `DEGrs8ir1qHhv5akh5uUzcQKnjbur8LhMo` * `DFrAB34Rve2BZvn2huXYzbMspbyLqj1y24` * `DKUZtYMEjZbLU9ruHutCm589v5F91mrGQA` |Event|Displayed time|Amount| |:-|:-|:-| |Three victim addresses swept → `DFXnUFL...`|08/01 22:10:12|14,421.16400888 DOGE net| |`DFXnUFL...` consolidates → `DL1TMR9...`|08/01 22:19:00|14,400 DOGE| |`DL1TMR9...` spent toward FixedFloat-labeled output|08/01 22:21:18|14,400 DOGE input|

IllustriousGas8850

It’s probably the most useful crypto in the market place currently. If ETH is trash then you shouldn’t be buying crypto because of use case at all

jurs78

Quite frankly, none of them. Maybe ETH when shit starts to click but as of today there are FAR FAR better investments.

unknowngloomth

Eth? Lmaoooo. ETH is trash.

Temporary-Cause730

Good coin too. It doesn't need to be one or the other, 2 coins can coexist and both succeed. For example, we have different L1s like BNB, ETH and SOL doing well.

cccc0079

One of ETH layer2. Arbitrum is my pick for now.

everyoneisapotato

Hmm let me share this with you all… this my 4th cycle and all the coins that pumped went down 95% at the mid/end of the cycle. Exceptions being BTC, ETH and BNB. I would humbly suggest that of you want to make any kinda money in crypto… keep DCAing in BTC/ETH and play with your luck with meme coins with the money you don’t regret if you loose.

ubermensch1001

Heavily leaning towards 100% BTC because I already am holding a lot of money in ETH and ADA, been in the market for a long time. Considering Solana but not super excited about buying at this price.

marsele_glasgok

ETH and a lot of rice to eat

goldenbuyer02

He doesn't remember anynore, he hit all his liquidation prices on ETH in multiple shorts

ra246

Stopped missing with Shitcoins. BTC, ETH, SOL, HYPE Thats it.

ElephantEarTag

I'll give you three options 100% BTC 85% BTC 15% ETH 80% BTC 10% ETH. 10% shit coin of your choosing. Knowing that your shit coin may drop 95% and never out perform Bitcoin. And in the small chance that it does outperform Bitcoin, will eventually bleed back to bitcoin after a couple weeks of outperforming.

george_alto

Of course BTC. But also ETH and SOL. Wildcard SUI and ONDO

TheGridOutreach

Well I support as many as I could, digital dollars are digital dollars. ETH, SOL and ADA have the biggest vocal communities.

Voigte90

12,5k BTC , 2,5k sol , 2,5k ETH, 2,5k xrp

BossCatBrian

10k BTC, 7k ETH and 3k SOL 🙂

ubermensch1001

Similar position to you, predominantly BTC but also holding ETH and Cardano.

tequilawhiteclaws

Staking yield minus inflation is the real effective yield. ETH might actually have a higher effective yield, but inflation is something that gets voted on by the community and is not set in stone

104MAS

Everyone’s going to say BTC since that’s what won last cycle expecting the exact same thing to happen. The real contrarian move would be to buy ETH as everyone has given up on it.

thuishaven

You should research: BTC, ETH, SOL, HYPE, SKY, MORPHO, UNI, XMR, ZEC thank me later

PulIthEld

people still think ETH is worth their money?

SpontaneousDream

People are completely sidelined still on $hype. I highly recommend trying the hype/eth trade on Hyperlend. Lend hype, borrow eth, dump eth for usd. The chart is up and to the right. [Source](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/hyperliquid/hype/eth/) Hype is up 228% against ETH this year, up 23% in the past 30 days alone. ETH continues to lose market share and I don't see this stopping any time soon. Hyperliquid makes DAILY revenue of \~$2 million USD, 99% of which is used to buy back the token on spot. With a fixed supply, it is quite literally deflationary. The protocol has already bought back almost 5% of its total supply since Hyperliquid first launched about 2 years ago. Meanwhile, Ethereum literally INFLATES every day (even after accounting for the burn) by about 3,000 ETH per day (on average). That means at a price of approx. $2,500 per ETH, ETH is inflating by about $7.5 million USD per day. Basic math: **ETH FDV is $300 billion, inflates $7.5 million per day.** **HYPE FDV is $85 billion, deflates $2 million per day.** ETH is going to get flipped in 1-2 years, maybe sooner, by HYPE. This is the real flippening. Save my comment. RemindMe! 1 year

theabominablewonder

I go 70% BTC 20% ETH and then a bit into random stuff which I won’t mention because it would come across as shilling my bags.

Temporary-Cause730

It's an interesting question, because in my view "revenue" is a narrative that is here to stay, but it is a weak moat for any specific coin. It makes the coins go up when revenue is growing, but what happens if revenues fall? What happens if a better competitor comes along and starts generating more revenue? So these are not positions that are "buy and forget", in my view. You have to monitor them and be ready to sell if the situation changes, and buy the new coin that is generating more revenue. If you want only positions that you can buy and hold for the next few years, then I would be way more selective, and would only hold BTC and ZEC, maybe ETH and SOL.

Interesting-Store-15

Blue chip - BTC and ETH that’s not a question Growth - Solana, ZCash, Virtuals

SpacklingCumFart

ETH

m3sarcher

ETH. Ethereum clicks all of the boxes.

Maik_trvpping

BTC, ETH and ICP. The is trash imo

averi_fox

ETH, SOL and HYPE. Or a basked weighted by TVL.

s1nth3tic

Ok so no YouTube but where did you learn this? And don't just say trying because from what you said so far it's not super clear how it works. Perhaps you have a book you could recommend? I'm extremely curious on how 'funding farming' works and 'short sold ETH and BTC collaterized in kind' bit. As I understand you can't do this on exchanges? Would love to learn more if you could direct me.

I_often_bump_my_head

BTC/ETH & then Genesis L1 for a moonshot

piggleii

Guys, think about it. Winklevoss was shilling BTC and ETH when they were dirt cheap. Now they're shilling ZEC. Make of that what you will. NFA

Bogdanoff_dump_it

Why do you have so few BTC and SOL compared to ETH and XRP? Other than that, I think this portfolio will do okay (assuming you take profits on time).

Fun-Journalist2276

Damn Zcash.... will ETH do the same

youngmind12

you can continue investing in the big once like BTC ETH and also check out tokens like SOL LIT and more but make sure is what you can afford to loss man

nose_noticer

U did good with the bitcoin. Ignore the others but DO ADD Monero and consider LTC+ETH
