your idea can potentially work in illiquid markets and is a type of market manipulation but one key aspect people who discuss hypothetical short seller manipulation is they always leave out the part where they need to buy back their short to close it out! every once in while some “geniuses” come along and attempt such game, actually some JP Morgan derivative traders have tried such in Gold, not only does it often blow up in their faces, but remember the minute ANYONE else with LARGER pockets than you learns of your attempt, you are done, you will lose all of it. That’s the short squeeze! and that one works really well, like really well, because the limitless risk of a short position is asymmetrical and means limitless losses, meaning all your collateral. re sha256 you seem to not really understand the role it plays. I’ll repeat. Your comment makes much more sense in the context of elliptic curve cryptography not sha256. And yes the Bitcoin network burns energy that is intentional and a feature, it’s also heating swimming pools, growing food and flowers, and numerous other waste heat applications, even home water heaters. Bitcoin LN already delivers immediate and extremely cheap micro transactions using Bitcoin. It works perfectly, I’m using it and paying for good and service on it, and deposits to CEXs. Not only that but with Bitcoin funded debit cards you can live entirely from Bitcoin self custody wallet and only fund your cards or fiat accounts on an as needed basis. This will also become unnecessary in the next 10 years when LN and other L2 open payment networks roll out with POS support. Square and other Block products are already available. Lastly. hedera is pointless. nobody needs or wants a KYC or AML. this is silly.

Yes if the fed does it without interference from Trump. But if he fires JP this is huge.

It's literally referred to as the risk free rate. The government would need to fail, that's the risk so it's generally not considered. Did people lose their bank deposits in 2008? No. Did just about everything else go go down or closed? Yes. Man watch out for those high government insurance bank accounts. Super risky. What should I go hide cash under the mattress? Is that what you consider safe? If the government and banks fail the cash would be useless too. Or are you one of those only gold and crypto is safe? A hedge fund that buys treasuries and gets a 1-4% return. Then, the fund gets its fees. Yeah, a huge market for that. Wow, I should start that. I'll be raking in the money with that genius plan. Though I have to tell you I'm already VP at JP Morgan. It isn't some secret money trick; most people who aren't idiots keep their money earning at least the fed rate / treasuries. Buffet's hundreds of billions cash pile is mostly in treasuries. Hedge funds do, too, when they move to cash. Everyone doesn't do it all the time because the stock market has better returns. People also have different strategies, risk tolerance, and timelines. Also, when interest rates are low like they were before COVID, it's way worse return than the market. It got down to under 1% There is always a risk reward spectrum. Saying why isn't everyone in treasuries is like saying why wasn't everyone 100% in Nvidia. Wow, maybe I should have made a fund that just buys Nvidia.

icedlemin

Why does he want to remove JP?

faithOver

Apocalyptic? The opposite. Trump wants to fire JP because Trump wants ZIRP back. ZIRP is bullish AF for Bitcoin.

MichaelAischmann

Firing JP will not change Bitcoin. If his dismissal increases financial instability prompting interventions, what would it mean? Printer go brrr is the intervention. HODL your Bitcoin.

I’ll tell you this. All the big rich guys are putting money in ETH. Eventually this will 3x 4x what it is now. Even the Man of the county has this in his wallet.. ETH is the gas fee used to transfer any funds. And when you see the company’s like BlackRock and JP Morgan buying up as many as they can you know something huge is going to be of it. So 1500 which is almost the exact price of 1 ETH atm. To have that 3x 4x is a good return. I really don’t see it going any lower because it’s such an important tool to have in crypto. Or Solona is a good one too it’s cheaper and will be the next ETH. Hope this helps and good luck!

tldr; JP Morgan reports that gold remains the preferred safe-haven asset amid market volatility caused by geopolitical uncertainty and President Trump's trade policies. Gold ETFs and futures have seen increased investment, with gold prices hitting new highs. Bitcoin, often dubbed 'digital gold,' has failed to attract similar safe-haven flows and has been trading sideways, correlating more with U.S. equities. Investors have shifted away from Bitcoin ETFs, favoring gold as a more stable option during economic uncertainty. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

tldr; Blockchain intelligence platform Lookonchain reports that $227 million worth of Mantra (OM) tokens were moved to exchanges like OKX and Binance before a 90% price collapse. The sudden drop saw OM's value plummet from $6.35 to $0.37, with its market cap falling from $6.11 billion to $683.3 million. Laser Digital, a strategic investor, denies involvement, while Mantra CEO JP Mullin blames exchanges for closing large positions during low-liquidity hours.

in about nine days if JP (OM founder) was correct and they are still able to sell for a profit...RIP

reed5point0

The token crashed so hard b/c most of the early investors and a very large amount of the supply is locked early investments. SO it currently has a very propped up supply. which caused it to rise so well. Just look at what JP did by pumping the Onchain OMIES NFT too on Stargaze, you better believe that's why OM was $7 tactics wise too. BUT are going to be able to sell their early token investments in the coming days. When they bought early they were "vested" or "locked" investments.

tldr; Mantra's OM token rebounded nearly 200% after a 90% crash, following allegations of a rug pull scam. Co-founder JP Mullin denied the claims, attributing the crash to forced closures by centralized exchanges. Despite the recovery, skepticism remains due to the project's tokenomics changes and parallels to Terra's LUNA collapse. Analysts warn of potential further declines, with OM's structure resembling a bull trap.

tldr; Mantra (OM) experienced a dramatic 90% price crash within an hour, dropping from over $6 to below $1, with liquidations exceeding $70 million.

The price of the Mantra token (OM) has dropped by over 90% in 24 hours, with its market cap shedding over $5.5 billion. The collapse has been described as a potential "rug pull" by some traders, but the exact reason is unclear. The Mantra team claims that the price implosion was triggered by reckless liquidations and not by any actions taken by the team. **Key Points:** * OM token price fell from $6.3 to below $0.50 in 24 hours * Market cap shed over $5.5 billion * Mantra team claims price implosion was triggered by reckless liquidations * Team's tokens are still in their custody, according to co-founder JP Mullin

Zombie4141

Unfortunately this is the truth. Much like Jamie Dimon, in 2017. When he said bitcoin is a scam and anybody that works for him who is caught buying bitcoin will be fired. Well Bitcoin dropped about 30% when he said that and at the bottom JP Morgan made about 10 really large Bitcoin purchases. These fuckers know how to manipulate the market to get paper hands to liquidate their stacks. And our government will never, ever, ever, ever uphold the law and take these douche bags down or hold them accountable for anything.

First of all, as a Canadian, you probably don’t realize that we already have far less of a social safety net than you guys do. Second, notice that you make a lot of statements that aren’t supported by data, which is a common characteristic of conservatives in general. You say that there are leaches abusing the system? Ok, quantify that for me so I can understand if it is a real problem. Countries have been tariffing the “shit” out of the United States for years? OK, show me what you are talking about since the last data I saw from JP Morgan said the global tariff rate was down to about 2% on average just prior to April 2nd.

Gold and silver are literally invaluable in manufacturing. They are used in every single piece of electronics. In fact, silver should be MUCH more expensive. Historically, the silver to hold ratio was 100:1. It was like that for nearly 5,000 years. However, after it started getting traded as an ETF with futures, it started being manipulated down. Bear Sterns held a MASSIVE short position that squeezed the price of silver lower for nearly 20 years. When the bank failed in 08, JP Morgan took over the short position. They still have it to thos day. The price of silver would skyrocket if the institutional shorts were to ever unwind. That's why the bankers didn't allow it to happen. Less silver has been pulled out of the earth each year for the past 15ish years as well. There is real scarcity because it is used for so many things. This is just one of many examples of asset price manipulation on a global scale.

Trust the Black Rocks, JP Morgan and the Big wigs they’re not in it to lose money don’t go by the weak hands They don’t have the stomach to be in the market in the first place. They don’t even understand risk and reward.. All the negative comments about bitcoin going way way down are the ones that shorted it and try to manipulate it to go down because they can jump back in. I’ve seen this over and over again. Good luck

MedellinCapital

JP said Bitcoin is the new gold. Thus BTC backed reserve currency. But we can’t have huge trade deficits or we will run out of BTC.

I'll do you one better, do you know how the Federal Reserve was created? The reaction I get to telling people how the Federal Reserve was created is always people telling me I'm a conspiracy theorist. like no, It genuinely was conceived of by Robber Barons on Jekyll island in a secret meeting, and the bill was passed on December 23rd, 1913 when most of congress was away for Christmas. It's not a conspiracy theory, it's legitimately a conspiracy. As in, the Vanderbilt, Rockefellers and JP Morgan literally conspired to create the Federal Reserve.

IcyDragonFire

As a very simplistic method, we can compare tvl (including stables) to mcap between Ethereum and JP Morgan Chase:    Ethereum: $170b tvl vs $226b mcap. TVL/mcap = 0.75.   JPC: $4T tvl vs $600b mcap. TVL/mcap = 6.67.   So even if you slash ETH valuation be a factor of 9, to match jcp's ratio, we're still at $200.   We have to consider also that ETH's mcap doesn't include l2s, and that it has much more potential for growth compared to JPC.    Also, it enables much more that JCP ever did or will.   To summarize, I think $100 is completely unrealistic. Furthermore, I believe the current price is a good buying opportunity, given the network's potential.

two reasons, GOLD is at all time highs and preforming so BTC is holding fast with gold. if gold was to fall back too $2,500 I think you would see BTC fall under 60k. second reason is QE is about to launch and we're in a rate cutting cycle now where BTC must increase against M2 money supply. If the FED was still in a rate lifting cycle then BTC would be falling alot harder into the 70k or lower regions. There is mainly just not enough supply right now for the multiple large players on wall street like Blackrock and micro strategy also they passed new regulation allowing banks to hold spot BTC so JP, Morgan Stanly, HSBC, and other European banks are looking to the OTC markets right now to get their slice of the pie. Yes they want to crash the price of BTC so they can load up take custody off Retail and price is going to push up when OTC supply dries out and they have to buy off exchanges. that will likely come over the next few years. in the short term we have to get through this stock market correction and also a USA recession, I don't know how long the recession will last because they really need to increase wages for people in this adjusted Inflationary environment, only way to do that is to drop business loans back under 4% so business can borrow more money and pay employees higher wages. couple unknowns are the AI offset of jobs how many jobs will be lost vs new people being employed.... 2026 could be an interesting year but I think before EOY this year BTC is likely to Bottom out my pick would be July it bottoms, it might slip more depending on economic recession data later around September so will see, I am however thinking of taking my first DCA trade into IBIT in early July then Taking a secondary DCA trade into IBIT in September, I will then take a 3rd either around late November or January to February in 2026 after economic assessment. BTC has one direction over the next 5 years which is up. but in the short term right now it's likely to fall lower. if your at a loss right now check back on BTC mid 2026, and plan to buy in September this year to lower your average.

While a definite prediction is impossible, the chances of a US recession by June 2025 are increasingly viewed as likely, with some economists estimating a 35-50% probability, driven by concerns over tariffs and economic slowdown. Here's a more detailed breakdown: Rising Recession Risk: Economic analysts and major US banks have raised their recession probabilities in recent weeks, citing factors like tariffs and concerns about economic growth. Specific Estimates: JP Morgan reports a 40% chance of recession. Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Analytics, upped the odds from 15% to 35%, citing tariffs. Deutsche Bank survey finds the probability of a downturn in growth over the next 12 months is about 43%. CNBC CFO Council Survey shows that a majority of chief financial officers anticipate a recession in the second half of 2025. Factors Influencing the Outlook: Tariffs: Concerns about new tariffs on imports, particularly those introduced by President Trump, are a major driver of the pessimistic outlook. Economic Slowdown: There are growing concerns about a slowdown in economic growth, with some analysts predicting a contraction in the first quarter. Uncertainty: The overall economic outlook is marked by uncertainty, with both consumers and businesses expressing increasing concerns about a slowdown or recession. Federal Reserve Actions: The Federal Reserve's actions, including potential interest rate hikes, could also play a role in shaping the economic landscape. What to Watch: Economic Data: Keep an eye on key economic indicators like GDP growth, inflation, and unemployment rates. Market Reactions: Monitor the stock market and other financial markets for signs of further turmoil. Policy Decisions: Pay attention to any changes in government policies, particularly those related to trade and economic stimulus.

Hey let's go ask a bunch of idiots that don't know anything about bitcoin other that what we've told them (ie: cRiMiNAlS DrUgZ) then have them regurgitate our shilled claims back to us. It's used by criminals alright... Larry Fink of Blackrock: 47 billion dollars in BTC. Jamie Dimon of JP Morgan Chase said it himself, it's a pet rock. Then immediately back slides and funnels money into bitcoin as it "crashes" from the sentiment you just created about criminals and useless rat poison.

I hope this clarifies how xrp works: Let’s say $100 billion needs to be moved by banks through the use of xrp. There are 100 billion tokens. That means at $1 they would need to use all 100 billion tokens in existence. Let’s say we factor in available tokens of the circulating supply (not held by retail, banks, institutions, etfs, etps, and ripple etc) now we get a much smaller number. Let’s say 50 billion circ supply goes down to 30 billion. Now that $1 xrp is now $3. Now let’s say banks are moving on the ledger what swift moves in a day which is $5 trillion. This is the milestone many in the community look towards. That $3 token is now $133 JP Morgan facilitates $10 trillion worth of payments per day. Their MC is not $10 trillion. If a token were used to facilitate these payments, and there were 50 billion of these tokens available how much would that token need to be worth to move that amount of money? $200. What about 40B tokens, 30B, 25B, you get the idea. Banks won’t sell any tokens being used for payments, just to buy them back again for payments. So those tokens are just being circulated within the ecosystem, forever shrinking due to burning. The top 5 banks in the US move approx $40T a day. That’s just the US. $50T @ 25B available tokens is $2k a token I am not saying xrp will be at a circulating supply of 25B and will be moving $50T. This is just easy numbers to explain the mechanics of how xrp can scale to large amounts in order to move money around the world. I think the next two years will be very interesting in the utility space, with the big winners being xrp as well as a handful of others that offer true utility and value. We have never had price action due to utility and not trading volume, but I believe it will shatter most of the current thoughts on crypto, and the role of MC and supply RWA tokenization is a whole nother beast, and is over $2 quadrillion, which the XRPL is expected to gain a market share of. That’s probably better left for another post. Best of luck. While the arithmetic is interesting, it relies on some assumptions that may not hold in practice. For example, dividing total daily transaction volume by circulating supply presumes each XRP token is used only once per day, which doesn’t account for the token’s velocity in real-world transactions. Also, market prices are driven by a combination of demand, investor sentiment, and broader economic conditions, not just a simple ratio of total value moved to available tokens. Alot of people try to act like XRP is pure utility, but 99% of the people that ponder this are speculating. Reaching an absurdly high price (enough to make smaller investors rich) would require market dynamics that are much more complex than what the description above is suggesting. Hope this helps!

BanzaiKen

What strikes me as odd is the quants nerds called this back in Jan that March would see a big fall and then a massive bounce back April-May to a collapse in June and deadcat in October. I used to treat them like stock analysts but the crypto dudes at JP Morgan and Arthur Hayes is right. I wonder if his second prediction that BTC will blast to $200k+ will come true.

Yup. He gets the vast majority of the blame for inflation. Biden gets a bit for that outrageously dumb 3rd stimulus (job openings ath & vaccine available for all who wanted it). Since then JP has been great though.

If JP once again says "economy is pretty strong" we are literally fked

Is JP talking yet?

Lol I remember when JP Morgan gave it a fair value of around $2000 and this sub scoffed with indignation

Giving out sub prime mortgages like you've never seen. 🤪 Yeah, I was just a kid in my 20s. I loved that job, I didn't work in the mortgage side of things. Credit cards was my gig. After JP Morgan bought us out, I gave them the🖕🏻 & took my 10yr severance. Wild times back then. It's way worse now I think tho.

As much as I'd love to borrow against BTC, I can't trust the likes of JP Morgan Chase - they'll be too happy to manipulate the price to liquidate you.

JP Morgan and blackrock amongst others have plans to update their foreign exchange platform to include ISO 20022 which XRP is tailor made for. Transactions can happen immediately and without high energy costs or transaction fees. this allows for less work with the banking system and theyre able to save more money it also degrades with each use so its value can't lower via inflation i could keep going but its just not even close to a shitcoin... not even in the same stratosphere. honestly can't believe some of the comments in here lmfao. if you don't KNOW, don't say anything.

tldr; Blockchain is poised to revolutionize the global financial system by addressing inefficiencies like slow settlement and siloed markets. While crypto advocates envisioned decentralization, Wall Street is driving adoption through permissioned blockchains, such as JP Morgan's system, which enhances transparency and efficiency. Tokenization will enable seamless asset transfers across networks, potentially leveraging public blockchains like Ethereum. The future will likely see hybrid systems combining traditional finance, blockchain, and emerging technologies like AI. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Largely I’m just accumulating and holding right now. It’s an ERC20 so all the common smart contract and staking stuff applies. An interesting recent bit was the release of an AVAX debit card that lets you use AVAX/USDC/USDT on the avalanche chain like a debit card. Seems kinda sketchy to me but I believe the primary focus is areas where the banking systems are underdeveloped or unreliable. The biggest factor in my mind though is the creation of various customizable subnets. This enables projects or companies to use Avalanche to quickly create their own mini blockchains with their desired settings. Several companies such as JP Morgan & Deloitte are already taking advantage of this and the state of California has plans to use Avalanche for tokenization of vehicle registration for example.

I would actually go even further to say the whole government itself. (I'm not disagreeing with you) just giving my two cents because its deeper than just one president. Left and right always screw something up because its always one party sets their plans up, then a new party gets in the next cycle. They reverse it and put their plan in. Then, the next cycle, the other party wins, reverses everything, and puts their plans in. Two wings of one bird that can never agree on a middle ground. So it keeps flip-flopping. Even the Senate and Congress. They're always reversing the other parties' plans before they can play out. I'd like to say that Obama, having 8 years in office, did make it consistent and smooth. Sadly, both sides are in constant war with each other for power. OG George H. Bush reversed Reagan's admin. Then Clinton Reversed Bush Sr. Admin. Then Bush Jr, reversed Clinton's. And so on. History time: I, on the other hand, still do not believe markets care about ideology, president's or any leader. Especially when the top 5 families in our country are the real controllers. Kennedys Rockefellers Rothschilds Morgans (JP Morgan) Carnegies History goes back to when the US govt was struggling to stay afloat and the rothschilds were one of the first families to bail the US out by loaning them money. In the long run, the banking system was born and then fed reserve and other many details in between.

Worst case scenario it happens in 2026 when Powell can be replaced with a yes man. Right now I think Trump is going to speed run the economy into the toilet and JP will start needing to get out the QE playbook.

Chainlink is integrated throughout a majority of crypto and is a crucial piece. Coinbase, Hedera, Aave, Arbitrum, Ripple, Solana, Tron, on and on... are all partnered with or integrated with Chainlink. Then, they have a massive reach into traditional finance, bridging the gap with crypto. They're partnered with SWIFT, Fidelity, The DTCC, UBS, Citi, JP Morgan, BNY Melon, BNP Paribas, Edward Jones, ANZ, Franklin Templeton, Trump's World Liberty Financial, the Central bank of Brazil, etc. SWIFT is going live in production with Chainlink later this year for their 11,500 financial institutions.

SEC fines always seem tiny compared to the crime committed.  JP Morgan manipulates xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx worth of derivative contracts and pays a x,xxx,xxx fine its almost like the fine HAS to be less than 5% of the amount XYZ corporation's profit from the fine 'merica

Banks are using their own coins now right? E.g JP Morgan

Just admit you have no idea how tokenization works. Companies like MasterCard and JP Morgan already use this technology.

Mission_Wolverine_72

Sure was! To make it even more interesting a lot of folks who were suppose to be on that ship cancelled last second like JP Morgan. Just so happens the folks who died on the ship were some of his biggest competitors and also were folks trying to stop the federal reserve from forming. Guess what formed a year later? Federal Reserve!

Doesn't feel like Bitcoin Dominance will ever find a top. There's no hope. Degens nonstop launching meme coins and ruined the whole industry, even presidents are fking launching meme coins.

Couldn’t possibly be related to the rampant fraud the meme casino has ushered in. Staining the reputation and adoption of real utility within the crypto space. Please enlighten us how Ripple and/or Ondo utility is a fantasy? Given the real world application and adoption seen in Bank of America, JP Morgan, Black Rock and Japanese banks (ex SBI)

The real beauty of Ripplenet and XRP is that now any financial institution has access to on and off ramps in many different countries direct. Currently small to medium size banks need to go through correspondent banks to get access to their global network of nostro/vostro accounts. Moving funds from one smaller countries currency into another small countries currency can even require multiple correspondent banks. These big banks such as HSBC/Citigroup/JP Morgan Chase etc hold trillions of dollars in these nostro/vostro accounts and charge massive fees for the use of it by other banks. Ripplenet can bypass this completely. So now smaller companies can save a lot of money removing the middle men. And when the standard is no longer paying other banks to move funds then new players will pop up and competition will create a race to the bottom undercutting each other trying to take market share. Not only does that enable small financial institutions to save money which will eventually save money for customers it also enables these trillions of dollars to no longer be needed and can instead of laying dormant in nostro/vostro accounts be put to work for the massive banks.

It's hard to get your head around...and I'm certainly no expert.... But you really need to not think about the What ifs...buts...and maybe scenarios. Yes you would have sold half on the first big pump.. Then half maybe on the next... Thats the logical way to take profits. For myself.. I should have brought more BTC at 4k, 10k, 20k... I should have brought more mastic/polygon...would I have sold in time.. Should have timed the top on Netvrk...some meta thing... Should have brought more BNB... Mantra were trying to sell this regulated US spun Som things prior to RWA.. Then JP got sort of lucky in Dubai will a shill....that's crypto.... There lending platform was probably the biggest failure.. But anyways... Keep at it.. And don't lose faith in polkadot.

In other news, JP Morgan would like to buy cheap Bitcoin.

Reminder that banking giants like JP Morgan, Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group mentioned here, etc have their own blockchain networks, coins, tokenized assets.

Reminds me of when Max Keiser was telling people to buy solid silver because JP Morgan was basically taking people's money for their paper notes and using it to short the market against them instead of actually buying silver haha.

> How is eth aligned with the future direction of the global market, not just crypto? The future direction of global markets is towards tokenization of traditional financial assets. [Visa](https://investor.visa.com/news/news-details/2024/Visa-Introduces-the-Visa-Tokenized-Asset-Platform/default.aspx) is the biggest card payment company in the world. [UBS](https://www.ubs.com/global/tc/media/display-page-ndp/en-20241101-first-tokenized-investment-fund.html) is the biggest private bank in the world. [Blackrock](https://securitize.io/learn/press/blackrock-launches-first-tokenized-fund-buidl-on-the-ethereum-network) is the biggest asset manager in the world... all of them have started tokenizing assets onto Ethereum.

[Deutsche Bank's Ethereum L2](https://cryptoslate.com/deutsche-bank-to-develop-ethereum-layer-2-blockchain-to-tackle-tradfi-compliance-issues/) is part of it (under the name 'DAMA 2'), [JP Morgan](https://www.jpmorgan.com/kinexys/content-hub/institutional-defi) has recorded Ethereum transactions back as far as 2022 as part of Project Guardian, and I think [Stripe's project](https://news.bloomberglaw.com/crypto/stripe-says-stablecoin-payments-made-in-more-than-70-countries) with Chainlink is also linked to it. The end goal is a global network of 'public permissioned' chains, where regulators can set rules for entities operating in their jurisdictions, but these platforms can all be interoperable, as well as gaining [advantages of transparency](https://www.sec.gov/newsroom/speeches-statements/uyeda-remarks-30th-intl-institutes-securities-mrket-growth-development-061424) and [smart contracts](https://www.mckinsey.com/industries/financial-services/our-insights/from-ripples-to-waves-the-transformational-power-of-tokenizing-assets) that we all know and love from traditional crypto... and the companies that are involved seem to have coalesced around using Ethereum as the single distributed ledger for settlement, and building L2s on top of it where necessary as permissioned but interoperable execution layers on which different jurisdictions regulatory rules can be applied. But how does this help ETH the asset? Each L2 needs to spend ETH in order to secure itself and settle transactions to the L1. This ETH is burned in exchange for 'blobs' of data storage on the network. The more L2s, the more ETH they need to buy and the more they need to burn. This is cheaper for them than subsidizing the security of their own L1, and provides them the full economic security of Ethereum (which would [cost more to successfully attack than even Bitcoin](https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4727999)) and so is the obvious choice for institutions, but in aggregate will make ETH the asset deflationary even if no one ever uses the Ethereum L1. If you still aren't convinced, note that I've only mentioned a fraction of the mainstream adoption that we're seeing on Ethereum, for a fuller list (with links, obviously) check out https://ethereumadoption.com/.

Pretty much everything tied to crypto uses Chainlink (LINK). Coinbase uses them, XRP uses them, HBAR is partnered with them, AAVE and basically all of Defi uses them. Same with TradFi now. They're partnered with SWIFT and are going in production this year for their 11,500 financial institutions. Partnered with Fidelity, US Bank, Citi, JP Morgan, Franklink Templeton, BNY Melon, USB, BNP Paribas, ANZ, etc. Trump's WLF uses them and has purchased millions of LINK. The central bank of Brazil is using them alongside Microsoft for their CBDC. The list goes on and on. That's a network effect that outpaces almost every other crypto out there and should last a long time.

I believe that it was JP Morgan, who when asked how he became so wealthy, said that it was because he sold too early

Mt. Gox and FTX are cryptocurrency exchanges. I'm talking about stock brokerage firms like Merrill Edge, JP Morgan, Schwab, E-Trade, Interactive Brokers, etc that are regulated by the SEC.

Before AGI threatens Bitcoin, the bank accounts of every Charles Schwab, JP Morgan & Chase, and Bank of America customer will be fully drained by bad actors. Bitcoin will be the last asset to be affected, so until we see those banks fail due to AGI we shouldn’t be concerned. Our network is malleable and upgradable, theirs is legacy and outdated.

jjhart827

You’ve just pointed out an additional risk to ETH. It’s entirely possible that some developers will decide to build on their own in-house blockchain rather than one of the public ones. It’s my understanding that JP Morgan has their own blockchain, and has for quite some time. Others will continue to effectively “lease” space on these public layer 1 platforms, which provides flexibility and scale without building out their own infrastructure.

Never listen to shit JP Morgan has to say. Their job is to mislead you.
