Is there anything less crypto than this..?

Consoles are literally just ASICs for mining intellectual "property"

Sony is currently charging $70 for God of War Ragnarok digitally. It is $32 at Wal-Mart. The game is 4 years old.

People will no longer have options after 2028 and will HAVE to go directly to Sony’s digital storefront and pay whatever PlayStation says.

> This is a "we don't know what we actually want" problem.

The mob wants ETH number to go up. Failing that, someone, anyone, to point fingers at.

This will require greater need for and use of ETH, and therefore more burning of ETH.

Fortunately, we are getting very close to being able to implement near-synchronous and synchronous composability in which tokens will be able to move automagically via ZK proofs that set up shared atomic execution contexts across multiple networks (L1, L2s, Besu private networks, ...) in real-time. This will unify fragmented liquidity pools in real-time. Much ETH will be burned increasingly many complex bridge-less cross-chain TXs are orchestrated. TradFi is coming to do some of this. Agentic will do some of this. And DeFi will make use of this.

[Ethereum Maxis @Ethereum_Maxis]

The lesson is obvious now.

Crypto spent years running away from its own core ideals and got exactly what it deserved.

Now come back to the L1.

Come back to Ethereum.

In my opinion, zero chance of this ‘crisis’ happening for $ETH

zero

“Funding secured”

[swanny.eth ⟠ @swannyeth]

@daonamic I see Ethereum's decentralized synthetic dollars as a tech that's ruthlessly filtering out a weaker money. Just like new world tech could mass produce shell beads. Synth dollars might not be ideal end state (like inflated shell beads) but they help bring about the better system.

[Fede’s intern 🥊 @fede_intern]

Tom Lee didn't save anything. I'm glad he's buying ETH, but long term price is downstream of whether the thing is real, useful, and credibly neutral. If your model of Ethereum is that it survives because a whale shows up at the right moment, you've already conceded there's nothing underneath when there clearly is.

This is why you can't hand the chain to VCs whose time horizon is their fund's, or to podcasters whose incentive is to be cool and famous rather than correct.

Everyone saying Elon Musk is the world’s first trillionaire is conveniently ignoring the entire country of Zimbabwe

[SamAlτcoin.eth ☀️ @SAMALTCOIN_ETH]

Saylor sold 32 $BTC, then said $ETH confidence collapsed.

Unfortunately, Tom Lee was in the room.

[ETH Strategy @eth_strategy]

ETH Strategy is retarded and believes ETH will flip bitcoin

[⟠ @ryanberckmans]

ETH ppl took shit before corps/govts arrived, before genius, before L2, before defi, and we'll keep taking shit until global ubiquity, and we'll like it. Because on the other side of this is ETH at trillions and Ethereum serving humanity for 1000 years. ETH forever

[Liquity @LiquityProtocol]

DeFi average rates are 50% cheaper than Maker.

Liquity is another 50% cheaper.

Big savings are possible, Joe.

[plunge @xcoldplunge]

Most people still holding $eth are likely ready to go down with the ship; at least I am.

Ethereum is a bastion of freedom and self-sovereignty in an increasingly controlled world.

No amount of number go down could get me to sell. Even with most of my net worth in eth, I would hold it to literal zero.

I would rather take a chance on eth and be wrong than give up hope on the most inspiring invention of my generation.

Come zero or valhalla, I'll be here.

Believe in somΞthing.

$ZEC is down 30%+ in 24 hours

But thats okay, Zcash works great regardless 👍

[vandy.eth @vandy_prod]

I understand why he's doing this, great for engagement, the pod, business, etc. But constantly shilling $ETH for 10 years and then turning around with "I told you sos" after selling like 3 days ago is the most cringe thing I have ever witnessed

[michael @no89thkey]

最近很多人在 讨论 ETH 作为资产是不是不行了（还有中文区搞笑的drama）。

这事儿其实没那么复杂。

如果你觉得 ETH 不行，是因为 Ethereum 的价值观导向错了，发展方向错了，那你先问自己一个问题：

你还信不信 cypherpunk 那套东西？

你还信不信 permissionless access？ 还信不信 credible neutrality？ 还信不信 self-custody？ 还信不信 censorship resistance？ 还信不信 privacy？ 还信不信 open protocol？ 还信不信一个全球开放、中立、任何人都能接入的公共网络？
如果你已经不信了，或者你从来就没信过，那其实很简单：卖光就好了。
ETH其实这十年 价值观没变过
但是这十年买ETH的人可以说是，各有原因，很多也不是因为这套核心价值观
但是ETH没变，世界变了。
不是说他原来走的方向和现在不一样了，只是现在这套价值观确实很难活。
这个世界现在的大趋势就是越来越反自由：更多监管、更多审查、更多资源集中、更多对个人自主权的不信任。
所以如果你觉得 cypherpunk 这套东西已经过时了，那你看空 ETH 是很自然的。因为 Ethereum 代表的东西，确实和今天世界的很多潮流是反着来的。

甚至未来五年、十年，可能五十年，世界的大方向都未必站在 Ethereum 这边。

那怎么办？

很简单：你有多不信，就卖多少。

剩下没卖的，就是你给自己信仰买单哈哈。

但反过来，如果你仍然相信，人类长期应该往更开放、更自由、更中立、更抗审查、更尊重个人主权的方向走，那 ETH 不管是在技术上还是思想上还是带领这个方向的。

不信就卖。 半信半疑就留一点。 真信就继续拿。

就这么简单。

If you haven’t had 99% of your net worth in $ETH over the last decade but you claim to be an Ethereum maxi, stop calling yourself that

Call yourself a diversification maxi instead

I don’t have a Plan B

$ETH is my Plan A-Z

I’m tripling down here

$MSTR sold 32 Bitcoin for ~$2.5M last week.
