whatever happened to all the ETH killers?

[Anonymous No.21920694]

there was neo, eos, trx, etc.
they were all the rage, climbing up CMC to new all time highs, until they actually launched.
did anybody even use them for anything ever?

trx got some use for casinos and tether. i think that's mostly dead now, tether is moving from tron to omg (so basically eth)
eos also had some mobile shovelware and some social media attempts. not sure if that went anywhere
neo was always dead in the water. i don't think anything is happening with that
ironically all those chains still made the right call by having icos and overhyping themselves as eth killers. compare with poa network for example, a perfectly fine dpos chain which made the choice to promote itself as complementary to eth rather than adversary, and even built good tooling to transfer back and forth between eth and poa. the poa token cratered to near 0, and even their subsequent sister project, xdai, got no attention whatsoever from the public until they added a token to it. and now that they've done so, you've got pajeets spamming /biz/ about it
blockchain technology is so complicated when you weed out the retards and the opportunists you're left with maybe 0.001% of the population. even if you want to build something legit, it's better to focus on marketing to mongs and shill campaigns towards mongs, and then build something concrete with the resulting warchest. chainlink is the poster child for this strategy

Ive explained this a million times already. There was never a true ETH killer. Not once in all of time

uses Chainlink. Chainlink uses ETH.

Never ETH competitor. Is just the Chinese ETH because china doesnt want to cuck to Russians

Flare is the only true ETH killer

ETH is and will remain king. Both Andre Kronje and the dude form ARPA mentioned that defi is not just about the blockchain but also about the ecosystem and protocols on it, and that they don't believe any of the other chains will steal defi mcap form Ethereum (and Kronje actually worked on an "ETH killer" himself). 99% + of all of these will slowly starve with near 0 adoption (which doesn't mean they can'still make early buyers a lot of money on the way).

The only real use of different blockhains are the ne that try to not be like ETH but just take on different use cases like fast-non money data transactions (like f.e. LTO or FUND).

All of your Cardano Polkadot Harmony shtcoins will ultimately be near useless

too bad all the stuff on ETH is utter complete garbage. this whole talk about "ecosystem" is just a giant buzzword. Many ETH maximalists have admitted, after all these years, Ethereum still has no real world adoption at all.
At this point, ETH is more of a brand than an actual utility

It's refreshing to know that Tron will always provide something for degenerates. Maybe a VaLiD use case, but not a valid use case.

polkadot ain't an eth killer, buddy. it wants to help eth. t. I own no dot because I didn't see it coming but might be worth to get some in case it moons.

anyway, with defi taking off on eth it's pretty obvious there ain't no eth killer. and for any of you guys who are doubting that just look at number of developers, network effect and such.

Polkadot wants to kill eth not help it. Your narrative is wrong. Check out the back story too. Polkadot is a revenge.
Also, DPoS (which Dot uses) is a step back.
You're basically buying the shiny new EOS or XTZ. It's fake decentralization.

oh yeah, the very important Baseline protocol. Such a vital part of the current banking system and not just a bunch of nerds jerking each other off

Polkadot is just a glorified masternode/membership network with new buzzwords.

it's true, but that's part of the reason why ETH is king!
if anybody actually used the products people were building these projects all would have switched to Harmony.ONE a long time ago. i'm not saying this as a shill - quite the opposite - but that's just one example of a blockchain that does everything ETH 2.0 is supposed to do, now, and better, with an EVM-compliant blockchain so very very little cost for switching. yet no one uses it.
why? because no one actually uses whatever random defi projects or cryptokitties or whatever the fuck either, so UX is irrelevant.
so the fact that ethereum has no real world adoption is actually somewhat of a moat for ETH, because there's no real value proposition associated with switching. is the price of some hyped coin like PNK or RSR going to rise because they hard fork their way onto DOT or ADA or something like that? probably not, and these products have so little usage they may as well be in alpha, so why would devs ever do that instead of going where the tooling is?

DPOS is massively underrated, I think perhaps ETH2 POS is better for core consensus, but for token-driven DAO-like stuff on ethereum, approval voting with DPOS needs to be explored further

You are not appreciating the value of the network effect. The whole point of EVM is that you can interact with the other deployed contracts atomically.
