Welcome to /EthFinance, a decentralized alternative to Reddit's r/EthFinance community of Ethereum investors, traders, users, devs, enjoyooors, etc. with a focus on the market, price, tokenomics, use cases, DeFi products, and all things finance related.
Looking to get connected with BASE traders? Where can I find them?
I remember using PoolTogether on Celo when it was still a standalone Layer 1. Glad to see them transition to an Ethereum Layer 2.

MetaMask Considers Launching Its Own Token
MetaMask co-founder Dan Finlay confirmed that the company is still considering launching a token amid the easing of regulations in the US.

Feels like Ethereum is now in this endgame race for RWA tokenization supremacy, and the runway is getting shorter.
Ethereum has all the right infra and characteristics (incl. credible neutrality, decentralization, trustlessness, etc.) but the TardFi corporate decision-makers remain largely unaware or indifferent.
Every ETH maxi is hoping for a major RWA adoption announcement (by BlackRock, Texas Stock Exchange, etc). Yet proprietary L1s are cutting corners with marketing dollars and being able to present a smiling suit to board rooms. For all their talk about disruption, corporates still want the reassurance of a wet ink contract and a neck to grab, and a decentralized network won’t provide that.
I’m aware of Etherealize & the new EF 1T security initiative; but also of Betamax vs VHS.
This is not about price btw — I just worry about a future where lesser solutions (proprietary blockchains / glorified databases with some vague crypto jargon peppered in) prevail over a universal, civilizational ledger

they laughed at us at 1.5k, they'll believe again at 5k, but they dont even deserve to see 10k by being with us
Ethereum.
Ethereum.
The pumping shall continue until the moral improves
I believe this price action is what they call FOMO?
Vitalik’s out here pulling a wizard move,scaling so slick, gas fees are toast and txs fly like my WiFi on steroids.
Dude’s basically a crypto time lord.
LFG, $ETH!

C'mon, just blast through 2k already.
If ETH really 10x/100x the L1. Are L2s the new L3s? In other words/ will all the low value/ non financial use cases that were supposed to be L3s become the 1000s of L2s people expected?
Was in Greenpoint for 10+ yrs, but evidently I'm in the Manhattan crypto bro cohort.
Any new attack vectors I ought to be aware of with Pectra?

I would mechanically guess large options buyers force the sellers to delta hedge spot, but they delta hedge spot in Eurodollars (they don't buy Tether then buy Bitcoin with Tether).

📉 Remarkable: The market is already rallying, yet stablecoin inflows are still negative!
No fresh liquidity.
Still, BTC is climbing.
What happens when inflows return?

The shareholder model prioritizes the interests of investors over other stakeholders - users, employees, partners, and communities.

They brought in the guy who allowed banks to turbo lever asset backed securities which led to the GFC and you're bearish anon?
While ETH is ranging:
What are you most excited for out of all the things happening in the Ethereum ecosystem?

Please don't be gaslit about how the increase of Stablecoins and tokenized RWA's (on Ethereum) are bad for ETH.
The coordinated lies and misinformation about ETH is really ramping up and people seem to be way more vulnerable to not right now because of the current price action.
Ethereum is in the best position it has ever been with scaling and real world adoption. Macro is shit right now and all risk assets have taken a hammering, this is not an ETH issue.

I think Base is easily ahead of most L2s right now. It’s not just talk; they’re making real progress & delivering results. Other L2s need to catch up.

Honestly, I think there may be an underestimation of this wealth transfer when you consider so many corporate executive, figuring out succession plans and new blood of this generation coming into position of wealth and power.

The relationship between Eth L1 and L2s can be liken to warpcast and other clients. The eth needs to be as dedicated to upgrading their UX same way, warpcast, put more energy in its constant UX upgrades, no other client could keep up.
This is the opposite on Eth. Sometimes, you wonder who's the native layer when you look at the efforts L2s are putting in increasing their Ux. It's not even a marketing problem as many have said there's no bigger marketing Eth can get beyond what the L2s are doing. Current network supply already exceeding pre-merged numbers, the "eth is money" Era seems to be long gone.

@aviationdoctor.eth i don't know if you've been following the eth believers meltdown on X, however I have a question to ask, is L2 meant to br a short term solution or a long term solution for L1 and how can ethereum actually see any growth in terms of price movement?
Our biggest failure this cycle has been falling well behind in the narrative game. We've let VC's, devs and bag holders of other L1 spew lies, misinformation and FUD about Ethereum while letting them get away with pumping their own bags via more lies and misinformation.
Ethereum inherently has a narrative problem because of its complexities, "digital gold" has been so easy for TradeFi to spread the message for, ETH could never match that kind of meme, we have to play the longer game, educate and fight malicious misinformation and FUD on the way
In fact this "digital gold" narrative for Bitcoin has been so nail on head that despite this extremely challenging macro backdrop it has performed so so well vs all other crypto assets (not just ETH). This is the result of BTC leading the narrative game so much right now

8 months ago I thought that Bitcoin dominance would come down. It did not.
The inflation we had seen since the pandemic enshrined the new macro regime in which only Bitcoin could flourish. ETH & 90% of altcoins got crushed.
As inflation (consumer & producer prices) surprises to the downside it's only a matter of time until we get a risk on market with lower rates, more liquidity and capital flowing into riskier assets such as ETH and altcoins. We're getting there: another couple of months probably. Don't let your conviction be shaken right at the bottom.

$80 --> $4800.
$1400 --> ?

Ethereum’s current price of $1,475 signals a buying window for me. Its ongoing developments and ecosystem strength bolster my long term outlook.

I got a feeling we're still in store for $15k in Q3!

Your favorite crypto influenzas that led your portfolio thesis are now telling you to rotate into cash and be defensive after your portfolio has already nuked down 50%, while telling you for the past 3 months we're going to turbo up only to $250k Bitcoin and $4K ETH because Team Cheeto won the presidency.
Longed $ETH on leverage
See you all in hell. Or heaven.
It's in the hands of the Gods now.

I can tell most people here are new because they were saying how Bitcoin had strength on Friday's trading moves.
