ETHEUR
Ethereum / Euro
crypto Composite

ETH has 3 separate teams work on it what are you talking about 🌽🏀

Current crypto balance:
\~$75.6k
BTC: 44%
ETH: 37%
SOL: 19%
Long-term target 50/35/15. Harvest plan is based on gains above each asset’s cost basis:
• BTC: trim once it reaches +75% over cost basis
• ETH: trim at +60% over cost basis
• SOL: trim at +40% over cost basis
I’m only harvesting part of the gain, not touching the original principal, and the harvested money goes to taxes first, then into a diversified managed portfolio.
What am I missing? Where would you poke holes in this strategy?

What are you rambling about. ETH is up 100% over the last 5 yrs. And for Those who sell when it hits 3k Crypto isn't for them

~Daily haiku until we’re at least at 0.178 on the ETH/BTC ratio or highest market cap

It's my third-largest position now!
High Tide Inc. is first, BMNR is second (in terms of ETH exposure).

our time will come

You don't need to do HFT to benefit from a faster Ethereum. Better quotes and better execution means less value extracted (MEV) from those types of transactions network wide. Less value extracted from Ethereum users keeps more value in the system, good for traders, token holders and ETH holders that don't even use the chain.
>all their tokenization solutions require trusted intermediaries
Most do, but a stablecoin on permissionless rails is a massive upgrade from a system that lives in the basement of a privately owned company.
This is a good writeup of why quick slots help Ethereum:

Yeah ETH needs to eventually outrun BTC by a lot. It just hasnt done that for the past few years.

"It would also make it easier to pill newer entrants."
if this was true wouldn't be see higher adoption these days since there are so many chains with fast block times? where is the evidence this is happening
the highest period of accelerating consumer adoption was 2021 era (ironically a time of mass congestion and high gas prices on ETH L1) and things have plateaued since then
"trading becomes better overnight"
personally could care less about trading I rarely trade onchain these days and I think mass adoption via onchain trading is unlikely to happen (we've tapped out the market of humans that want to go out on that risk curve)

Wut?

We're at 0.031. Most of ETH's history has been above this level. And when were below it, it was goblin town. I guess if we trend upward for the next year and/or get to 0.05+, I'd call it amazing.

Sounds like you’ve already found something that works. Next time, [superswap.cx](http://superswap.cx/) is another ETH → BTC no kyc option to compare with stuff like Cake Wallet, Hyperliquid

I don't think it's about enabling any one use case. Ethereum will never be as fast as L2s with more centralized validation. But an increase from 12 seconds per block, to say 2 seconds per block, would make a world of difference for the user-experience of using things on Ethereum,
It would also make it easier to pill newer entrants. Normally people that are new to crypto, especially smaller wallets, wouldn't be willing to use ETH because the tradeoff of more security is not worth the long block times and expensive gas. But if the block-time difference is a couple seconds on L1 to half-a-second on L2s or Solana, it's really not all that different, and the additional security and larger liquidity might be a reason for them to stick around.
And then, from a pure making-things-bettter standpoint, faster block times mean AMM quotes become stale much less quickly between the time you make your transaction and the time it executes. So trading becomes better overnight

I've seen people promoting efforts to make Ethereum faster recently and I'm a bit confused why that's a priority
what use cases do we expect to be made possible by making Ethereum marginally faster? what's out there that we KNOW will be worth the tradeoffs of decentralization for speed?
many many many L2s and alt L1s are faster than ETH and no sticky use cases have emerged on them beyond what we already know works on every blockchain (gambling apps)
and the past year saw a launch where the entire pitch was "superfastchain" and this is the result:

can someone pill me on the need for speed?

i personally dont, but im a big advocate of simple front ends and user experiences as that seems like the most realistic way to the adoption ETH needs to succeed.

When I spoke to someone at the Gnosis Pay stand about an issue I was having with the wallet, they were shocked that I was using the Gnosis Pay website. They recommended that I use Zeal for the interface. ZEAL also have a CHF savings, but you have to convert ETH to CHF to invest and then convert it back to withdraw, and I didn't want to sell any ETH at that point. I also don't feel like I got very clear support from th em in solving my issue. I would be happy to try Rebind but I'm getting more and more confused by how it all hangs together and that I'm making a mess of wallets. Thanks for the update, I guess I better get on this.

Did you try not being a smart ass. This is literally a thread dedicated to ETH questions flared correctly. Get a life

Hindsight makes every missed BTC move look obvious. Coming out green with 10.8 ETH is still a solid outcome

What if they're ETH holders instead?

I’m going to give you the harsh truth those TikTok influencers won’t, but it’s the exact advice that will actually make you money instead of losing your savings.
Those videos of people making thousands a day from their phones? They make their money by selling courses to beginners and farming engagement, not by trading. The statistical reality is that 95% of day traders lose their money to algorithms and insiders. If you try to quit your 9-to-5 next month by flipping crypto, you will get wrecked.
If you actually want to change your financial future, here is the boring, proven playbook:
1. Turn off your DMs right now. Anyone messaging you on Reddit offering to "help," "guide you," or asking you to connect a wallet is a scammer. Every single one.
2. Stick to the blue chips. Open an account on Coinbase or Kraken and buy Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). Ignore the meme coins promising 100x returns, they are essentially lottery tickets where the house always wins.
3. DCA (Dollar Cost Average). Buy a set amount (even just $20 or $50 a paycheck) every single week, regardless of whether the market is up or down. This takes the emotion out of investing and prevents panic-buying.
4. Think in years, not days. Crypto moves in 4-year cycles. Buy, hold, and learn how to move your coins to a hardware wallet (like a Ledger or Trezor) for safe keeping.
Keep grinding your day job, build your stack quietly, and have patience. It is not a get-rich-quick cheat code, but if you are disciplined and hold long enough, it is one of the best wealth builders of our generation.
