Sometimes I'm also exited looking at children making a castle of sand. A lot of imagination based on... sand.

I completely agree with you. There is currently no alternative to ETH. All the killers haven't come up with anything fundamentally new yet. The ETH has the best decentralization in the market, a high pro level of the community and developers. Of course, there are problems, but they will soon be solved.

I am not so sure whether he is not a USD billionaire by now. I remember the interview and he sold a good amount of his ETH quite early already, but there isa good chance he bought back in. Also he is probably sitting on a ton of tokens.

After breaking the $4,000 mark, Ethereum's market capitalization has grown to nearly $478 billion, meaning it is on track to surpass JPMorgan Chase. The largest U.S. bank is currently worth $488 billion after Friday's close.

We are waiting for it. I love to see when ETH gas fee back to 6-16 GWEI.
I do not know when they ready to lauch ETH 2.0 . I still can wait until the end of this year

Isn't this obvious? Miners sell eth they mine for bitcoins. If they are not allowed to do that there will be nobody mining eth. Something eth devs don't comprehend. Simple as that!

Something every ETH hodler, Dev and user should have a look at....

The Internet Computer works differently than traditional blockchains, and this enables Ethereum developers to incorporate its capabilities into their dapps with relative ease. For example, whereas Ethereum requires users to submit some amount of ETH with every transaction to pay for the gas that fuels the computation resulting from smart contract code being invoked, on the Internet Computer canisters (a form of smart contracts) are pre-charged with “cycles” (the equivalent of gas) and pay for computation themselves.

and much more...
What may surprise you, is that there is work ongoing at the DFINITY Foundation involving advanced cryptography that will allow canister code running on the Internet Computer to securely create and sign Ethereum and Bitcoin transactions.


Each canister can maintain up to 4GB of memory pages. But if that is insufficient, a system can be composed of any number of interacting canisters, such that there is no upper bound on the total quantity of data that they can maintain.

An interesting story with links to transactions like Vitalik Buterin dumped the Shiba Inu and Akita Inu token markets

End of memecoin season by Vitalik Buterin or not?
This will probably be one of the big meme events this year.

ETH has very high gas fees and I wondering how long it will take to come down. The time line for the official EIP1559 rollout next July 2021. Though EIP1559 is not even forecast to have a lot of an impact on fees.

Ether is already on a ride and ETH will be more and more expensive. First ETH will test $4200, passes that then we in for a takeoff. So, $4500 ETH by tomorrow?

have developers given up on trying to scale ETH? It seems sharding has been postponed and all efforts are instead direction toward fee burning and proof of stake which doesent help users and developers much.
