ETHEUR
Ethereum / Euro
crypto Composite

BTC and ETH, yes.

What the Stable Genius act said was that all stable coins legal in the USA have to be backed by US Treasury bonds. So welcome to the fiat economy! I am not saying that is bad.
Stablecoins don't require ETH or BTC, though certainly some exchanges use ETH or BTC for transactions.

I would have assumed it would be lower.
100k ETH, liquidation at 50-65% LTV
14% buffer just seems risky considering the crypto volatility 

So now Quantum resistance is going mainstream. Coinbase just announced an advisory board for risk mitigation. Vitalik has announced it as a top priority. And everyone is trying to land messaging around it.
Things to know
First the usual- yes, this affects all systems and not just crypto.

Everyone will need solutions. And that's why we are seeing governments and businesses (like Coinbase, Apple, Google) all start to work on it.
The unique challenge in crypto- you need consensus across a decentralized system. And if it has user impacts, you have to be very careful so they can navigate the change (with time to do so.
For BTC, people are realizing that it is best to deal with this. There is perceived risk, which equals market risk. It is a tough change with much disagreement on the approach due to various impacts on the required change.
As mentioned, ETH is focused on it, but faces all the same challenges.
Going down the tagged list
ZEC is a new addition. Their shielded transactions offer protection, but if you want to use the public side, that is still vulnerable. They will need to fix this to be considered quantum resistant
STRK is a layer 2 scaling solution for eth. Since the root issue is your digital signature and protecting your wallet, it will be dependent on the Ethereum solution
Nervos is Cell based architecture. I don't have the depth here, but I read "The *protocol enables* quantum resistance, but users must choose to adopt quantum-secure lock scripts or wallets like Quantum Purse"
QANX (I hold this one) is pre-mainnet and has focused on a seamless transition of digital signatures. This innovation has use cases being implemented at Ueno bank through their Itti partnership alongside SignQuantum. They will need public mainnet to realize the benefit of this solution. In general, they have a heavy focus in enterprise utility.
Naoris was fairly new to the list. They promote that they can secure networks as a layer 0. Like nervos, this is beyond my depth. Already wild leveraged trading if you like that. Not for me
And the list goes on. There will continue to be many storylines here.

My personal take is among major chains, we may see some gain/lose ground based on how this plays out, but hopefully it won't be as big of impact as some projects would like to hope.
It will certainly create visibility for well positioned projects.

>The verifier must be neutral, unstoppable, and non-corruptible.
It must be a smart contract.
Ethereum is currently the only ecosystem with the maturity to run a verifier that:
Enforces the law exactly as written
Cannot be bribed
Cannot be turned off by a new mayor
Except that this was violated when in 2016 the DAO was "hacked" and the ETH "community", i.e. an elite number of users, rolled back the chain to bail out their pals.

Do y'all have recommendation to stake for ETH in my ledger?
I did some for rETH but returns dont look very good

QIE Circulating supply API: [https://qiebank.qie.digital/api/circulating-supply](https://qiebank.qie.digital/api/circulating-supply) (Currently around 82m)

**User Responsibility & True Decentralization**
QieDex is a fully decentralized exchange, meaning it operates without any central authority or manual control over listed tokens. As a result, you may encounter tokens that do not yet have official logos or complete metadata. This is part of the open nature of DeFi — anyone can create and trade tokens freely. Users are therefore encouraged to perform their own due diligence and verify token contract addresses before trading or providing liquidity. This ensures a safe and transparent experience while maintaining the core principle of blockchain freedom: you control your assets, not a third party.
Please disregard the data on CoinGecko, as it is inaccurate. The figures on CoinMarketCap are correct, although the circulating supply is not yet reflected there.

r/cc is rabidly anti-defi. it's talked about in the same way that ETH maxis talk about Solana, BTC maxis talk about Ethereum, and Elizabetth Warren talks about Bitcoin.

With $500, I wouldn’t try to get fancy. BTC first, maybe a bit of ETH. Most people lose money chasing “next big thing” alts. When I’m not trading, I either stay in BTC or park small amounts in boring stuff like non-custodial staking (p2pstaking popped up when I was reading about it). Patience beats constant switching.

Last chance to buy ETH under $3,000

“Make America Great Again,” as they quietly pad their wallets, and the vast majority of middle-class America is eradicated, struggling to buy eggs, on the verge of another credit crisis.
“Meanwhile… the Trump family quietly built a $1.4 billion crypto empire.”
\- Benzinga News Wire
They will build gold statues, and the birds will defecate on them. Good business isn’t generally good for the people. You too can still benefit. Invest in BTC and ETH, build an empire of your own, even if it is a baby by comparison.

That's a very good split. I wouldn't put so much into XRP, but that's my opinion.
Nice to see Monero on there.
My main suggestion would be to get self-custody right. Don't leave your coins on an exchange or... they're not *your* coins.
For Bitcoin, I can recommend BlueWallet (for iOS/Android). For ETH/SOL, MetaMask.
For large amounts, you should definitely get a [hardware wallet](https://trezor.io/).
In terms of riskier but potentially more rewarding investments, I'd take a look at [BitcoinII](https://bitcoin-ii.org/). It's **literally** the same code as Bitcoin, just re-launched in 2025 with a fresh Genesis block and on a new network. The nodes also have a stricter policy regarding large data transactions, to avoid big data storage on the blockchain (an issue Bitcoin is starting to face).

The tricky part is that the majority of the reward for the validator went directly to the rocket pool protocol and has automatically become a part of the rETH/ETH exchange rate. There is no way implemented to return the ETH and if it would be done it would mean at least part of the ETH would be taken from all the people who minted rETH in the last few days as they paid a higher price for their rETH due to this reward.

So just hold ETH..

Fusaka upgrade is a win for ETH efficiency boost is exactly what Ethereum needs as it scales. ETH holding above $3K, and the L2 infrastructure is turning it into the go to foundation for institutional DeFi.

Yeah ETH is hilariously undervalued. Won’t last long!

Can someone explain silver to me, is it like the ETH to BTC. Why is it valuable now

Yeah it was too much risk for not much reward.
Any time you swap tokens in defi, say ETH to wstETH, you pay a fee and that fee goes to people like me who have deposited both assets to the pool. That's where the extra yield comes from.

That would just be adding liquidity for people to trade between them and you get a part of the fees depending on your contribution to the liquidity pool.
Off the top of my head for vaults similar to ETFs, check out dhedge. or toros finance. its been a while its one of them.
JLP might be acceptable? its on solana check it out.
But it might be best to just create your own and there wont be a management fee or another layer of risk.
like just decide on an allocation / %, and either buy them on their native chain (safest, no yield)
or
like for BTC i would use Solv protocol on BSC,
for ETH use your preferred liquid staking protocol, wsteth?
You can get exposure to gold though paxg / xaut0 and lend it out for .2% (better than negative)
depends on what you want? buy what you feel like and try and get some yield while you are holding it

I also remember some curve pools that have multiple tokens like usd / btc / eth (though IL).
and I just checked out Beets .fi it has LP pools like curve, but it doesnt have the variety that i remember when it was on FTM before the multibridge hack.
check out universal, it allows you to mint / burn a huge variety of tokens that arent normally on that chain for a .5% fee though when i checked like 6 months ago alot of them had little liquidity, but if youre just holding and looking for exposure to the token its fine, (but be sure to remember to buy/sell on universal)

honestly I'd pull 20-25k and split it between real shit like BTC/ETH and maybe some SEI. let the rest cook in case it actually runs
