Why?

It didn't drop 20% because of the merge you retard, look at the rest of the economy. We're in a recession, shits going to go down. Also, shit always sells off after a big event.

Not so sure. Stakers will get their ETH back in like 6 months to a year, and they won't get it all at once.

buying
initial stake in PoS may be similar to
buying an ASIC in PoW, but mining a
chain has a real cost (electricity) in PoW.
In PoS there's no cost to mining, so
validators have an incentive to stake all
possible forks. There's no way to have
consensus on the correct chain, because
real resources haven't gone into building
one up.

The merge didn't cause an increase in value because everyone knew about it. It was already priced in. Either the merge failed and value would plummet or it worked and it wouldn't change.

HOWEVER, people bought ETH before the merge thinking it would go up and they could sell. Lots of idiots were doing this and everyone knew. Everyone also knew they would sell off immediately afterwards. So the price dropped. And on top of that, the US stock market had a terrible day. You can complain about it, or tell me all about how it didn't use to! But it won't change that crypto currently(and for the foreseeable future) follow the US stock market.

That's the point. 5 years and it doesn't really accomplish anything practical besides making it more centralized and less secure. Will be another 5 years before they fix gas fees.

The retards blaming the merge and POS are ideological subhumans and have some of the worst arguments I’ve ever seen. The reality is that the merge didn’t change much of anything (though fees have been lower since blocks have been much less random now with POS), and the global economy is still shit so this was a massive sell the news event. And frankly targeting eth specifically for being down makes no sense when EVERYTHING is dumping hard. If theres 1.0% rate hike very likely you see 13k Bitcoin again but the low IQ trash that genuinely believe PoW means a coin is “backed by electricity” will be focusing exclusively on the $700 Ethereum or sucking government cock calling it a security.
