BMNR looks like shit right now but they've pretty much finished up getting to 5% of ETH and at current ETH prices they'll be turning like 400m rev of the staking yields with ETH staying around 2k, more like 800m-1b if ETH goes back towards 4-5k.
Depends on how you value ETH though and if you think ETH is going much lower.

In a way, it’s actually a good thing that the various coins don’t all evolve in the exact same way—it shows that they have distinct use cases and aren’t driven solely by speculators... but why, of all coins, does ETH always have to perform so poorly🙏

That Reddit post about walk-forward testing really resonates with what I’ve seen with AgentX on 1024EX. A beta user demonstrated the full workflow: you give it a natural-language thesis, like “I think ETH will outperform BTC this week,” and the agent constructs a full strategy entry, position size, stop-loss, take-profit, even systemic risk overrides. What’s striking is how the agent essentially enforces a kind of walk-forward discipline automatically. It waits for exact conditions before entering, adjusts position sizing based on risk, and respects correlation filters you didn’t explicitly define. It’s like having a built-in out-of-sample check on every trade, rather than relying on a static backtest curve.

I’ll show you fucker! 10 ETH coming your way!!! 😈😈😈

In September 2020, the founder of SushiSwap sold his entire stake for $14M in ETH and disappeared.
Two days later he came back, returned all of it, and asked the community to decide what he was worth. Then he left for real.
The guy who took over from him was Sam Bankman-Fried.
Read that again. The successor to a guy who just rug-pulled the protocol was the future largest crypto fraudster in history. At that exact moment, Alameda was already farming and dumping SUSHI while SBF was publicly playing savior. We just didn’t know yet. Nansen later confirmed the wallets. By then SBF was in a courtroom.
This is the actual founding story of SushiSwap. Not “anonymous chef forks Uniswap.” The real one.
I think about this whenever I look at the SUSHI chart.
The token peaked at $23 in March 2021. It trades around $0.20 to $0.30 now. TVL went from $8B+ at peak to roughly $40M to $100M depending on the day. Daily volume collapsed from around $915M in late 2022 to about $21M in late 2025. Anyone who staked at $5 has been bleeding for four years. The Dec 2025 emission vote was decided by one wallet holding 99.9% of voting power, which the community correctly called centralization theater. Emissions got bumped from 1.5% to up to 5%, which means more dilution unless the new leadership actually deploys it well.
By every metric people use to judge a DeFi protocol, SushiSwap is losing.
And yet.
Most of the protocols that launched alongside it in 2020 are dead. Not “in decline.” Dead. Yam, Pickle, Cream, Hegic, Harvest, that whole food-themed cohort. Contracts paused, websites expired, founders gone, no fees being generated.
SushiSwap is still operating across 40+ chains. It launched on Solana via Jupiter in February 2026. It still pays 0.05% of every swap to xSUSHI stakers, which is real fee revenue from real trading, not printed yield. New leadership (Alex McCurry via Synthesis) bought 10M+ SUSHI tokens in December for around $3.3M of his own money. Could be a savior story. Could be someone scooping a dying brand cheap. Nobody knows yet.
The thing nobody quite says out loud is that SushiSwap is a roach.
I mean that as a compliment. A roach is something that’s been hit by so many things that whatever didn’t kill it, by selection, made it harder to kill next time. A founder rug? Survived. A successor who turned out to be the biggest fraud in crypto? Survived. Forks attacking the forker? Survived. A 98% TVL drawdown? Still here. A governance crisis where the entire DAO is basically one wallet? Still shipping.
This isn’t a “buy SUSHI” post. The math on the token is ugly and I’m not going to pretend otherwise. If emissions stay at 5% and the price keeps grinding down, xSUSHI yield gets eaten by token decline and stakers lose in real terms. If the multi-chain thesis doesn’t pay off, none of this matters. If McCurry turns out to be another character in the saga rather than the end of it, we’ll be writing another version of this post in 2028.
What I’m saying is more boring than the bull case.
DeFi’s history won’t be written by the protocols that pumped. It’ll be written by the ones that absorbed punishment without dying. The ones forced to learn governance because their original governance failed. Forced to become multi-chain because their home chain got too expensive. Forced to figure out real fee revenue because their token couldn’t keep printing.
Traditional finance still has banks that survived 1929, 1987, 2008, and 2020. Not because those banks are well-run. Because they survived. And surviving is the only thing that compounds eventually.
The question I keep asking: at what point does SushiSwap stop being a “dying protocol” and start being a “survived protocol”? Is there a TVL number? Or is it just time? Has any DeFi 1.0 brand actually crossed that line yet, or are they all still in the “could die any day” bucket?
Curious what people actually think. Especially anyone who held through the Nomi/SBF era and is still here. What kept you around? Or did you leave and you’re just lurking now?

Impressive and congratulations. Could you help me out on adding a new position? You seem bullish ETH owning ETH. What do you think are attractive buys. I’ll do my own research but just curious. I’m 22 have $100k in a longterm portfolio and I’ve been wanting to try options or leaps

It's also massively outperforming BTshit! Way more than it is outperforming ETH.

The article is comparing price perfomance over the last year. ETH is up 30% over that timeframe while Runescape 'Coal' is up 40%.
From the fact that you edited the title to "Shitereum" I'm pretty confident in assuming you're a Bitcoin Maxi, so for comparison BTC is *down* 16% over the same period.

Lmao this is like the crypto version of those "send me money pls" posts but at least you're being upfront about it. Back in my country we had similar posts but people would make up elaborate sob stories about sick grandmothers or whatever. Your approach is refreshing - just straight up asking for ETH to pay for studies without the drama. Can't blame you for trying, crypto community can be pretty generous sometimes, though most people probably gonna scroll past this one. Good luck with the studies though, education is expensive everywhere these days.

ETH hasn't had an ATH priced in BTC for 9 years.

Quiero un ETH

More bitcoin ? Nah .I think I'm good right now . I bought my BTC @ $3400 ,. ..BTC, SOL, ETH along with stocks , options , and the above numbers of metals { I was just recommending my holdings for a goal for the young person } I even keep 50-60 racks of dirty , nasty , evil , worthless fiat on hand just to be ready to swoop in and pounce on a silver drop. Thx for advice though -)

Vitalik himself has millions of USD worth of ETH in railgun

Price data on yahoo is OK (at least during RTH, not so much during ETH). but volume data is pretty bad sometimes. Not just by minor stocks like the one you mentioned, but even with giants like SPY. I've seen 10x the normal volume for a random normal 5m candle. Just don't trust yf volume data.

You sell for 100 profit and it’ll get taxed. The best ETH has ever done is 5k, it’ll get there again one day you won’t be rich off owning 1 but even if it goes down just hold it and wait

The Russell 2000 index just reached a new all time high at 2910 points. Money is rotating out of large cap stocks into small cap companies. Historically this is a super bullish trend for crypto and ETH, because altcoins usualy follow the Russell 2000 toward new highs

ETH is the clown of crypto

The ETF inflows for ETH have been surprisingly strong, $320M in a single week is no joke 👀

Incorrect. Look at the financials. SBET has a lower total debt, and a lower DCA, and have been staked since Day 1. BMNR was later.
The only positive thing about BMNR is that he is continuing to purchase, but if ETH dips again, SBET will survive. BMNR's debt will be marginally bigger than SBET at that point. The shares won't stand up if that happens.

These days I tend to sell resistances.
Buying dips also works but ETH doesn't dip once, it usually quadruple mega dips till everyone's crying.
