The energy rental thing isn’t a scam, that’s just how Tron works. TRC20 transfers eat Energy, and if you don’t have TRX staked you either burn some TRX or rent energy for that one tx. It’s basically a flat fee per transfer, so on $20 it looks insane and on $2k you wouldn’t even notice. ETH gas is the same deal btw, doesn’t care how much you’re sending (it just depends on how busy the network is). What would’ve saved you all this: check which network the payment page actually wants before buying anything. USDT on Tron and USDT on Ethereum have the same ticker but they’re separate tokens, and most checkouts only take one.

ambushed by people who didnt even want to imagine the benefits of a decentralized, anoymous mainnet with a solana side issuance that allows the privacy coin to become tradeable because otherwise most CEXs and DEXs dont accept privacy coins for trade. But, they do allow wrapped privacy coins or 1:1 issued tokens that already have the infrastructure built to become stakable, and used for arbitrage profiting by day traders. which will keep the two coins closer in price than hey otherwise would be. No to mention the propsed future developments like **ull-Chain Membership Proofs (FCMP++):** Upgrades the anonymity set from 16 to the entire blockchain history. **Benefit:** Renders statistical deanonymization and chain-analysis attacks computationally infeasible while optimizing proof sizes for faster node verification. **Seraphis and Jamtis Protocols:** A next-generation transaction protocol restructuring how view keys operate. **Benefit:** Significantly improves the security and usability of multi-signature (multisig) wallets, light-wallet servers, and subaddresses. **Decoy Selection Upgrades (OSPEAD):** A mathematical framework to optimize decoy outputs. **Benefit:** Counters sophisticated analysis firms by ensuring the algorithm picks decoy outputs that perfectly mimic the spending habits of real users, preventing timing or clustering heuristics. **Native Atomic Swaps:** Trustless cross-chain exchange protocols built directly into the desktop wallet. **Benefit:** Bypasses centralized exchange delistings and KYC requirements, providing censorship-resistant liquidity and decentralized fiat off-ramps (e.g., swapping native FRG for BTC or ETH). **Rust Node Migration:** Rebuilding the C++ daemon into a modular, memory-safe Rust architecture (similar to Cuprate). **Benefit:** Eliminates C++ memory vulnerability risks, modernizes the codebase to attract new developers, and simplifies native integrations with the Solana Token-2022 Oracle bot and other Web3 infrastructure. I had roadmapped to eventually provide multilayer functionality, eventually culminating with cell data aggregation by individuals cellphones. the phone does the aggregation and they are give rewards for ProofusefulWOrk, incentivizing their continuing use of the collectiong app. while the data is sent back to the main network servers which are rewarding people for storage capacity, as thats where the data will be encrpted and stored so that the data can be commercially packaged and sold to various companies looking for GPS data, Cell Service Data, Acellerometer and Gyroscopic data. The they can use to calcualte cell outage areas, poor road conditions across fast distances, areas of roadway where people drive erratically etc. All datat points that can be used by government agencies and private coorproations to efficiently fix roads, service areas, map out lanscapes in 3D for developers etc. I dont understand how you guys can consider this just another pointless project... im not trying to keep ledgers of transactions. im trying to facilitate the safe transfer of data and commercialize it while also providing decentralized and anonymous monetary transactions, facilitate staking and guaranteed returns. all on the same network. yall seem to be under the impression i hobbled together an idea to try and print money. which is incredibly insulting

Dont put your real numbers here. Also 1 ETH is (from my perspective) nothing, even if you compared to BTC. Go for 10 or 100 ETH :) (BTW nice and happy for you!)

Adding 1 ETH!

Hey, I’m 18 and investing for the long term, I already made a few posts here (thanks for the advice :) seriously appreciate it) and this'll be my final post before I fully commit. I’d appreciate some advice on my current portfolio and monthly plan. **Current investments:** €596 in WEBN €478 in SXRV €119 in BTC and ETH combined **Planned monthly investments (€200-300 total):** €216 WEBN €54 SXRV €15 Bitcoin €15 Ethereum I’m wondering whether I should keep the 80/20 WEBN/SXRV split or sell SXRV and go 100% WEBN for my ETF investments. Since WEBN already holds many large US tech companies, am I really taking unnecessary concentration risk with SXRV, or could the extra Nasdaq exposure be worth it over the long term? **What would you do in my situation, and why?**

Depends why you’re selling. If you just want fewer coins, I’d keep the bigger ones like ETH and SOL and cut the small stuff first. IQ is tiny and way more likely to fade out. Also check which ones you’re up or down on before selling, since that changes how much you’ll owe in taxes.

Rotating some stables out of standard lending pools and into Uniswap v3 tight-range ETH/USDC pairs this week. Volatility has been juicy, so fee yields are beating flat APYs by a mile right now. Just babysitting my ranges daily to avoid getting completely wrecked by impermanent loss if we suddenly break out hard. Fingers crossed the chop continues a bit longer so the compounding can do its magic.

All fair points, so I ran the two I hadn't done. As before, the rules and my guesses were written down first. **1. Counterfactual.** Done in the reply above. Seven coins with no ETF at the time thinned too, and so did their BTC-independent part. ETH's own ETF date added nothing, and placebo dates show "breaks" as well. So it's a regime change, not an ETF effect. **2. Robust scale.** I re-counted without GARCH, scaling each hour two ways: by trailing 7-day realized vol, and by a 30-day median absolute deviation. |per 30 days, before → after Jan 2024|trailing 7d vol|30d MAD| |:-|:-|:-| |hours beyond 4σ|6.3 → 5.2 (ratio 0.83, 95% CI 0.71–0.99)|23.2 → 15.3 (0.66, 0.50–0.89)| |hours beyond 6σ|2.1 → 1.2|9.0 → 4.4| |Hill α|2.31 → 2.66 (+0.34, CI +0.20 to +0.49)|2.10 → 2.49 (+0.39, CI +0.20 to +0.55)| The thinning survives. But you're right that the size depends on the estimator: GARCH gave \~1.7x fewer 4σ hours and \~2.8x fewer 6σ hours, and robust scales give roughly 1.2–1.5x and 1.7–2x. I'd quote it as a range. **3. Bai–Perron.** I ran a mean-shift model on the monthly rate of 4σ hours, allowing up to 5 breaks with 15% trimming and choosing the number by BIC. BIC picks **zero** breaks for BTC under both scales and for the control average. If I force a single break anyway, it lands in Dec 2020 under MAD scaling, Sep 2023 under trailing vol, and Jul 2021 for the controls. None of those is significant (sup-F 2–7) and none is at the launch. By your criterion the ETF story weakens. The before/after difference is real, but it looks like a slow drift or regime, not a step on an ETF date. **4. Drying volume.** Agreed on direction: no tilt. One nuance from my data: it didn't widen the next move either. The next day was narrower in absolute terms (median range 2.4% vs 3.1%) and no different relative to current volatility. In my sample it's a state that mostly says "it's quiet."

Oh I agree! There's no doubt that buying and staking(thus locking) 5% of the supply is a massive boost for ETH price in general. We migth have fallen a lot lower if not. And this might very well be the building block for a great next run. So I'm happy that he bought, I just feel he's making a fool of himself when he continually set absurd targets for ETH in the short term

It is wild for me to learn that France does not tax coins swapping. I mean each coin has value assigned. In the US I have to figure the cost of each coin I swapped (ex swap SOL -> ETH, I need to know how much I paid for SOL and when I bought it to figure out the capital gain/loss).

ETH Options won't be 23/5 read the article: [NYSE Introduces Extended Trading Hours for NYSE American Options](https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/options/articles/nyse-introduces-extended-trading-hours-123000779.html) Support told me it will be enabled in the next week or two, including SPX.

I mean sure it *could* happen..or ETH could just simply continue its bleed on the ratio. I don't see any reason why hitting that lower high trendline must be "likely". The market clearly isn't valuing ETH based off its TVL and dapps, which kinda leaves it in no mans land. The issue is that ETH the asset doesn't capture value. I take the contrarian view here and feel that ETH can either a) go much lower against USD or b) severely underperform BTC or newer assets (ie, assets that have actually significant buybacks/burns tied to revenue)

>**Opposition campaign,** >**Opposition is mundane,** >**Stock trading onchain.** ~Daily haiku until we’re at least at 0.178 on the ETH/BTC ratio or highest market cap

Both. You’re right, banks don’t NEED defi liquidity in the sense of TVL, but they do WANT access to it. The pool of funds is relatively small now, but will increase with adoption. Crypto has a lot of benefits for banks as you said, instant settlement, flash loans are others. JPMorgan wouldn’t be building on ETH unless it benefitted them and with their history of scamming (ie precious metals desk), they operate in their own best interests. Point I was making is that 2-3 banks or bank adjacent companies building on Ethereum doesn’t change a ton, but a majority of them operating on Ethereum does. For Ethereum to be successful we need way more users.

When you say liquidity do you mean access to DeFi TVL or the rails DeFi has built for smoother transactions? Banks do not need DeFi liquidity in the sense that the TVL of all DeFi ecosystems is 1/5th the annual revenue of AAPL. They do not care about a couple maxis who have 20-200M in crypto badly enough to build full products just for them. The tech smooths out tx speed and leaves a clean audit trail which they have a real use case for. If banks are converging on Ethereum (they are) then Ethereum benefits massively? ETH needs bank liquidity, banks need ETH settlement speed and cleanliness.

Nothing really. People have tried; that's why other chains like SOL, POLY & XRP exist. But they're not universally accepted. As competing chains & currencies die off only the top handful will survive. BTC and ETH will always survive but having to pay $3-4 to make a transaction means it'll never supplant fiat/bank transfers/credit cards etc. That was always a pipedream for the crypto community. If i go to the cafe and buy a cup of coffee for $5, i pay $5. I don't want to pay $5 + some unknown amount of fee between $1-$5 depending on how fast/likely i want my payment to go through. that's just nuts. When transacting large values; then a few dollars in gas is fine and NBD; but not for day to day transactions.

Funny thing is he's actually a smart dude. But his predictions are ridiculous. Like why 10K? That makes ETH a $1T asset class which is possible but where are the metrics? Why not 20K or 30K? Some dude said it earlier, likely around 8K this cycle but in reality probably more like 5K (a ~2x from here).

ETH is going to the moon and you can’t stop it 👀

Tom Lee said the same thing in Oct 2025! He is salesperson for his company BMNR which feeds off of ETH gains. He will say anything to influence purchasing where he benefits

$BTBT 1. Value of Ethereum Holdings 163,700 ETH × $2,360 ≈ $386 million 2. Value of WhiteFiber Stake 27 million × $11.75 ≈ $317 million 3. Total Asset Value (ETH + WhiteFiber) $386 million + $317 million ≈ $703 million 4. NAV per BTBT Share $703 million ÷ 360 million shares ≈ $1.95 per share now discount 0.9p per share Bullish

You’ve confused owning a large pile of ETH with controlling the Ethereum network. Bitmine owning 5% of ETH supply doesn’t mean it controls 5% of validators, governance, or block production. ETH is a bearer asset, not corporate equity. You’ve identified a concentration risk and are pretending it's some fatal flaw in decentralization. Those are not the same thing. If you can’t explain the mechanism by which Bitmine’s holdings translate into actual control over the network, you haven’t made an argument.

Bitmine is essentially a hedge fund and they own 5% of ETH supply. If you want to get semantic about it and tell me BMNR isnt actually a hedge fund then thats fine I guess, but my point was a single centralized company owning 5% of a supply that is supposedly powering something globally decentralized is not great for the argument in favor of that.

> Tom Lee has called for insane prices for years And not just ETH. He was a big bull of IWM for some reason (the bottom 2000 stocks) which was down for 3 years while in that same time, SPX500 returned ~60% and QQQs were ~90% and MAG7 and semis were just stupid crazy. ... and then he just forgot about IWM for some reason and founded his ETH fund.
