crypto Composite

Yeah SOL has grown faster than ETH the past week or so but at least since yesterday, ETH has growth that is currently outpacing SOL.

ETH has a completely different use case and well, it’s been stagnant over the last couple of years while BTC has consistently gained value. I dot exactly know why people buy ETH over BTC. I would not.

**Why people get ETH then? same u can say about that too.**
It's not who's gonna be NO1 or No233, there are still 200 other coins that people talk, invest, or use.
It's just marketing that drives them

And ETH is Ethel

Why Litecoin is always left out, despite being one of the big 3 from the start, stable as ETH through all these years, and one of the oldest coins out there?

would leave a lot of people sidelined! ETH is inevitable

Went 25x long on ETH last month with basically my whole stack. liquidated in under two hours.
After sulking for a day i went back through old threads here and realized almost every newbie does the same stuff. too much leverage with no actual plan, no stop loss (just gonna close it manually lol), entire portfolio in one position, chasing a pump thats already moved 15%, not getting how funding eats your margin, moving stops out instead of taking the hit, revenge trading right after getting liquidated. i did every single one of them.
One thing that actually saved me. id set the position to isolated margin on bydfi instead of cross. when that long blew up it only took what was allocated to that trade, not my full balance. difference between losing a trade and losing everything.
ui isnt as polished as bybit yet but isolated margin genuinely saved my account. if youre starting out just go practice on demo first, dont learn this the hard way

BTC, ETH, XRP, KASPA, LINK, HEDERA, SUI, BNB

The establishment of Ethereum Institution is the latest positive development for Ethereum. It shifts corporate and Wall Street relations to a board controlled by Walsh, Lubin, Tom Lee and the largest ETH treasury corporations, the core Ethereum Foundation (governed by Vitalik Buterin and Aya Miyaguchi) can maintain its strict philosophical focus on open-source code and decentralization, leaving the "Wall Street playbook" to this newly formed entity!

BTC, ETH, SOL, HYPE, LINK, RENDER.

Most likely that's the issue yes. Bit of a bummer really. ETH gas fees are something I wanted to avoid.

You bridge from ETH to Solana chain using Debridge. You’d need gas for the base chain in your case ETH.

Would I need ETH to swap my USDC thats on solana to USDC ETH? Even if it's the same wallet?

Likely just BTC even ETH will die probably soon.

Am I just a grumpy guy or anyone else looking at who isn't part of the new Robinhood chain rather than who is? Seeing reports of eyewatering fees being paid by DeFi projects to be there.
Also, correct me if I'm wrong, this all quietly runs on Ethereum, uses ETH as gas, and relies on mainnet for DA, correct?

Not my burden of proof. If you make coin ABC, it’s your burden of proof to tell me why it has value or what its value should be.
And I have refuted what he said simply by saying there is nothing, \*\*nothing that clearly defines what that “key” in the box analogy should be worth, or in other words, what the proportional value of ETH should be in relation to the value it secures.
ETH will continue losing market cap dominance and will continue underperforming other coins as long as that supposed “value connection” or “value capture” between Ethereum the network and ETH the token remains murky.
It’s really that simple, but you’ll believe whatever you want I guess. Have a nice day champ

It means revenue generated by the network is not used for auto buybacks of ETH. It also means revenue generated by the network does not result in any (meaningful) burn. If you look at other coins, some are using almost 100% of protocol/app revenue to buyback their token

Building my bot and doing a lot of backtesting these days.
I had a breakout system that looked bulletproof on BTC: +66%, profit factor 3.2, 13% max drawdown, profitable in 6 of 9 walk-forward windows. So far, so great.
But, it only fired about 8 trades a year. At that frequency a single-asset walk-forward can't tell a real edge from getting lucky. The sample is just too small, no matter how you slice the windows.
So I froze the exact config, no re-tuning, and ran it on ETH and SOL.
* BTC: +66%
* ETH: -11%
* SOL: -60%, with a 0% win rate.
Also tried different parameters, but no parameter set rescued the other two. It was fit to BTC.
Might still be something "real" that only happens on BTC. But more likely just overfitting.
In contrast, my market-neutral funding carry pays +6.7 / +6.6 / +5.6% on BTC, ETH, SOL. Neatly aligned, what a real structural edge should looks like, boring and the same everywhere.
If your edge is low frequency and only tested on one asset, you don't know it's real yet. You know it fit one history. Might still make you money.
Do you cross-validate across instruments, or is single-asset walk-forward enough for you?

BTC: store of value ETH: smart contracts/DEFI XMR: p2p digital cash.
Maybe a few other longshots like LINK BCH DOGE for reasons I'm sure you can guess after minimal research.
