Sorry Im a little confused by what you mean, Core does support the Optimism network and executing transactions on it, as it does with most other EVM based chains, but you need ETH for gas to execute transactions, like sending or swapping tokens.
Can you explain what you mean when you say "you can't actually do anything"?

You can also look into assets that you want to accumulate (i.e. ETH) and then head to Uniswap > Explore > Pools and find the best yield there

Great take, the hype is gone and the price is all based on volume. ETH has done nothing for past 5 years, only see this being bad from here on out. My money is better in SPMO or an index fund.

What do you think about Arthur Hayes betting 78M$ ETH?

I hear you, but I am not one foot out the door.
What frustrates me is that some bearish investors openly say they will buy ETH below $1k, or even $500, because then the risk to reward finally looks attractive. I despise that. They want long-term holders to absorb years of pain so they can step in at distressed prices.
I would rather hold ETH to zero than sell at these levels. I do not want dollars from bottom-fishers. I have held ETH since 2017 and never sold at $4k - $4.9k during prior cycles.
But I also have to be honest about risk. If ETH gets above the 2025 ATH, I will sell some and diversify. ETH is still too large a percentage of my crypto holdings, and I need to manage that better.

Even ETH had a giant premine and VC backing where stakeholders just hold it and print more ETH out of their premine. Basically a scam imho.

Hey there, 1st time making art and selling them as NFTs. You guys heard of this site? Ive been minting and selling my works here since its a site that was recommended by a guy to me that was interested in some of my works.
Now that Im planning to withdraw my ETH, it turns out it required me to pay 3ETH before I can do the transaction. As a 1st timer, Im wondering if this is normal and legit site or am I being played.
Godspeed

>Do you think that ETH belongs to the shitcoins?
Absolutely. It's a premined and centralized shitcoin.
Vitalik premined 72,000,000 coins right in the genesis block, before letting anyone in. He kept some, sold some. Then Vitalik switched the shitcoin from POW to POS. It means, not the nodes/miners decide on the future, the coins do. The unethical, premined 72 million coins are the vast majority, earning the most fees and deciding what way to go - completely centralized by the elite, owning the unethical coins.

So, if I send over a bit of ETH, I can eventually convert all three (OP, USDCop, and ETH) into AVAX?

I actually did some freelance audio production work for someone across the world and was paid in ETH. Was a lot of fun and pretty cool to actually use it for services payment.

Hey there, sorry for the delay on seeing this reply. The reason you are asked for ETH fees and can't execute transactions with your tokens is because Optimism network uses ETH for all gas fees, OP is their governance token. You can see that by looking at their block explorer [https://explorer.optimism.io/](https://explorer.optimism.io/)

All gas fees are in ETH. That's definitely a bit of a confusing choice by Optimism, if you ask me.

I invested in this coin BankSocial when FaZe Banks promoted it 3-4 years ago (yes I know very stupid). Can’t swap it to ETH cause the liquidity is too low and it keeps failing. Their subreddit is restricted and hasn’t been posted to for half a year. Should I just accept money gone?

I need ETH to become more reliable and not depend so much on inflation rates, Fed cuts, or perfect macro conditions.
I understand ETH is a risky asset. But if I am taking on that much risk, the reward needs to be much bigger too. Right now ETH has underperformed the S&P 500 while being far more volatile. For a trader who can time the swings, that is a dream. For long-term holders, the stress is honestly becoming hard to justify.
ETH needs to start performing soon. People are losing patience.
If ETH is not going to mature as an asset, and it keeps getting ragdolled every cycle, then I cannot just accept that forever. Sorry.

Is it? Look what happened in ‘20-21, massive bull run on Solana and ETH which both came from this exact same thought process at the exact same time period you’re referring to plus or minus a couple years…coincidence that I’m trying to catch the next big thing for 2026-2030? As in there is definitely going to be a next big thing this bull run and I’m trying to get ahead of it. I would advise you do the same 🤷‍♂️

> The odds that you would simply sell your ETH because it went up 20% are slim to none as you would still be out $1000’s in your investment and no compensation for your time.
First, you wouldn't sell your Ethereum, you would sell the staking profits.
Second, the money that could be used to buy a mining rig COULD have been money you could have used to just buy Bitcoin. So there's a division between just holding bitcoin and securing the network, and securing the network is an opportunity cost. With Ethereum, there is no such division.
Third, you would NOT be out $1000s in your investment because you could still sell your Ethereum, and likely much more easily than you could a GPU for mining bitcoin.
The GPU for Bitcoin mining is also much more costly because the GPU depreciates in value and you have to pay for much more electricity when it comes to mining, than for staking Ethereum. So with Bitcoin mining, you are **BURNING** money, while with Ethereum, you just need a computer and an internet connection + a stake in the network.

Lots of people struggle with finding a simple entry model, here's one:
This is one of the most simple trading setup, short entry from the PDH (previous day high)
I took it at NY open, from 30567 to 30490, that's 310 ticks/80 points, a $1,550 win for the day with 1 mini NQ
At 9:00, when you open your chart, all you gotta do is mark the previous day high and previous day low, then watch how price react when it gets there
Today, price had a clean rejection from that level, that's why I took the entry

No, the rejection is not always that clean, sometimes price breaks up and keeps going up, sometimes it just chop around, that's why trading is discretionary, there is no recipe or strategy that gives the exact same result 100% of the time
PS: Notice that I have the ETH high/low, PWH/PWL marked too, these levels are a "good map" for the day. Price often reacts when it reaches them
My favorite are ETH high/low. I have my first volume profile set up from market open at 18:00 to NY open at 9:30, it covers the entire overnight session. When NY opens, I mark the high and the low of this overnight session. Price reacts to them EVERYDAY. If price break up the ETH high, I know market is bullish; if price breaks down ETH low, market is bearish. Price can also bounce up and stay in range. As always: trading is discretionary

Again, you would have to commit to purchasing a starlink unit and ongoing subscription for starlink depending on where you are in the world, you’d have to purchase solar panels and install them, and you would commit to $1000 worth of ETH in your example. The odds that you would simply sell your ETH because it went up 20% are slim to none as you would still be out $1000’s in your investment and no compensation for your time. So spiritually, you are still connected and committed to your mining operation. Does that make sense? I don’t know how to make that make any more sense to be honest.
What I’m saying is that the problem with the meme coins for example is there is no reason to hold, no connection, the community is a gimmick, and no one actually cares. When you invest $1000’s of dollars in equipment just to perform a task you think will yield profit you will go much further with that project than one you bought because of FOMO and how many X followers.
How many people have been holding BTC for a decade now? How many people are still holding any SPL or ERC token from the last 5 particularly the bull run ‘20-‘21? 99.99% of those coins are completely dead. This should be easy to read homeboy but hopefully this explanation helps

Random thought I had this morning.
I opened bitpanda because I wanted to check whether a recurring buy had gone through and noticed I own tiny pieces of all sorts of things now.
A fraction of BTC, ETH and some stocks.
And none of it feels weird anymore.
I remember years ago people would say things like "what's the point of owning 0.02 of something?" It almost felt fake unless you owned a whole unit.
Somewhere along the way that completely changed for me.
Now I don't even think about it. If I want exposure to something, I buy the amount that makes sense and move on.
What's funny is I don't think I would have been this comfortable with fractional ownership if crypto hadn't existed first.
Owning 0.001 BTC sounded normal long before owning a fraction of a stock did.
Maybe that's just me.
But every now and then I realize crypto quietly changed a bunch of little behaviours that I don't even notice anymore until something reminds me of them.

Tell me what is left for ETH to achieve that would move the price?
And if you can do that tell me who's actually working on it, because all I see are developers and "leaders" leaving every day

Nothing in the world can pump ETH to that price, and we should finally accept it.
