All these alts pumping and then dumping while bitcoin stays stagnant is pretty much what happened before BTC began the 2017 bull run, just FYI. I predict there will be threads saying exactly this:
>Bitcoin dumps, altcoins dump.
>Bitcoin pumps, altcoins still dump.
>WTF WHY
this thread appeared so many times during the beginning of the runup in 2017. Except this time ETH may follow BTC.

Very true. People forget, but bitcoin is king. Unless it gets flipped into oblivion, it is going to fucking destroy everything.
Ethereum is a bit of a game changer, but until we have sharding, which is ~2 years away, it won’t surpass bitcoin. The synthetic bitcoins on ethereum chain is interesting though, and this alone will likely make ethereum follow bitcoin in its pumps.

Not true, if you can actually run full nodes on the network then a 51% attack is extremely limited and most people don't understand what little miners can do without getting their blocks orphaned.
Why do you think bch and bsv have a culture of saying full nodes don't matter? It's because they literally want to centralize the network around miners. Jihan for bch and Calvin for bsv. If there are only a handful of full nodes because they stuff so much weather data and shit into blocks then they can do whatever the fuck they want. They can create inflation, steal coins, etc.
This is why small blocks and being efficient on layer 1 is so important. It's the entire value proposition of Bitcoin. Nodes are a check and balance that limits miners power
