Ethereum / Euro
crypto Composite

I’m really pissed with eToro. I opened a crypto wallet, gave my address to withdraw a profit from a prop firm and asked for ETH to be sent to my Ethereum address but instead they sent USDT without asking for confirmation assuming an Ethereum address supports different tokens. eToro says they cannot recover them and my money is lost.

Honestly $100k into Coreweave or $100k into ETH ALL IN.

How? Even if every single Russian retail investor invested in other coins moved 100% immediately to BTC/ETH, it would represent a shift of about 0.05% or something of all crypto investment

Not 2.5%...
**25%.**
That's what you get when you provide liquidity on the $1000-$5000 range for the ETH/USDT pair in a DEx.
Actually, recent years have been closer to 35% for that range.
This is 5X your initial capital in 5 years.

You're missing a massive vehicle for value accrual, which is ETH as pristine collateral for for DeFi. And I see it violently increasing with time, especially when the bull run is in full swing

I mean if you bought that early then sure. Many people may have bought at the 2021 peak and would still be down. Even if you waited for it to bottom out in 2022 you’d only be up \~75%, but that’s just getting lucky with the timing.
If you bought 2020 or before, then congrats I guess, it does outperform. But anytime after \~Q1 -Q2 2021 you’d be underperforming.
Do you think ETH will come back to all time highs? People on crypto twitter generally complain about Eth being stagnant and not living up to expectations.
I like Solana but even that has totally tanked with the overall market, with both you’d have to have really good timing and luck to make those crazy gains.

ETH was 80 bucks not long ago, hit almost 5k last fall.... that's underperforming?

Hi everyone, I’m currently enrolled in a bachelor’s degree in Mathematics in Italy (with elective courses in theoretical physics), and I’ve been exploring master’s opportunities in Europe (UK included).
Since I might get rejected from Cambridge, Oxford, ETH, and EPFL’s mathematics master’s programs (I’ll still apply, though), I’d like to have some solid alternatives lined up.
I also love the idea of doing a PhD, because I’m very into mathematics — especially statistics and everything related to it, so maybe ML too. I think a role as a quant researcher at a research-heavy hedge fund could be a really interesting career, so I’d like to do a PhD at a target European school after my master’s.
Given that, what do you think are the best (applied) mathematics master’s programs that:
**•** are well-recognized in Europe and open doors to a PhD in prestigious unis
**•** have a solid, rigorous mathematical core (I’m not looking for finance-oriented programs like the “El Karoui” master or similar quant-finance tracks, just serious mathematics or maybe some applications to ML, statistical learning…)
I noticed TUM’s MSc in Mathematics, TU Delft, and also the M1 Applied Mathematics and Statistics at Institut Polytechnique de Paris, which gives the opportunity to continue with M2 Mathematics, Vision, Learning or M2 Mathematics of Randomness. However, I’m not sure how internationally recognized this path is, since the whole IP Paris co-accreditation structure seems fairly recent and I couldn’t find much of a track record for it (few alumni on LinkedIn, rarely mentioned here compared to Oxbridge/ETH/EPFL/Imperial).

No, the rewards never stop. The rate just becomes lower and lower the more ETH is staked. If it becomes too low, people would stop staking because there would be better opportunities elsewhere, and then the rate would go back up. That incentive is there because stakers protect the network from attacks - they make it very, very expensive for a threat actor to attack the network.

Lido is not staking its own eth, it stakes more ETH if other entities decide to mint stETH. Lido *could* pay interest on stETH when the actual staking yield is 0% by paying from their reserves, but I very much doubt they would, that would be burning cash. That kind of behaviour can make sense in the traditional world where your competitors can go bankrupt and then you get a monopoly or quasi. Here neither Coinbase, Kraken , Binance, etc would go bankrupt if they stopped getting commissions from eth staking, it's a small part of their business. Not counting that solo stakers could just come back if the yield gets better again later. So why would Lido destroy their reserves for no long term benefit?

these are pretty much the only established non-scam, non-VC centralised slop coins, I wouldn't recommend anyone go further than BTC or ETH either if the goal is long term wealth.

> And once a majority of ETH is staked with an LST or a big centralized provider the risks of not staking with them are actually higher than staking with them. Because they have become de facto the canonical chain. Whatever happens they will be the dominant fork.
This isn't true. The dominant fork isn't decided by who has the most ETH. If you imagine a censorship with social slashing case where the centralized provider is doing the censoring, they will have their ETH deleted on the honest fork, and the greater their share of ETH the greater the resulting deflation (much beloved by the authors of this proposal) on the honest fork.

I agree with you on every point and all the reasons why it's a good idea to change the issuance, in *some way*, except for the reason that the proposal is an improvement and is better than doing nothing. I think this is wrong.
This is the also the reason why I've somewhat stupidly argued that the authors are saying we'll get to 100% staked ETH, even if I know people aren't saying we're getting to *exactly 100%* staked ETH, but this is an important error in the reasoning behind why the EIP is supposed to work and reach market equilibrium, when it's claimed that the current curve doesn't.
The proposed EIP claims to protect solo stakers because of "market equilibrium". This means "market participants aren't stupid, they'll stop adding new validators before the yield gets so low that solo stakers aren't making a profit, thereby protecting solo staking. And they'll certainly stop adding new validators before we get to 0% yield." This is frankly a completely ridiculous statement. There's no models or analysis or reasonable argument that can be made for how or why this is true. Here there's actually research showing why the propsed curve would hurt solo stakers and introduce a new attack vector, but the proponents for the EIP are ignoring this.
And, if we were to follow the same logic from above, that the market somehow ensures this outcome, "market equilibrium", we must also assume that the market will protect solo stakers under the current issuance curve. Because the proposed EIP doesn't invent any new mechanism to specifically protect solo stakers, either the market should obey the same kind of logic and safeguarding in both scenarios, or the logic falls and you can't reasonably argue that the stake will grow forever (or into those very high numbers) as it's being claimed. If the market is intelligent under the proposed EIP and that alone is enough to guarantee solo stakers are protected, we don't need to fear that stake keeps growing under the current design.

The easiest: some ETH is lost, it sits in wallets but can't be moved, so of course it won't get staked.
Some ETH is used as collateral in Defi. Over time, some of it can be replaced by liquid staked eth, but there's inertia, so it happens progressively, never fully.
Some people will prefer to hold ETH and not stake, by principle, as diversification, or for whatever other reason they might have.
Also, the remaining unstated will get slowly diluted by issuance. So at the same time, the unstated eth will never be 0, but the staking ratio will keep going higher.
