Ethereum is relevant in the history of fiat and ponzis. Eth is almost like fiat’s money final form. Where it just becomes hyper efficiently highly verifiable, highly secured scamming.

lots of cope, but the facts remain

every widespread and successful narrative that spawns from the thousands of failed and unsuccessful altcoin market attempts will eventually find its way onto bitcoin, somehow.
bitcoin never needed any changes to allow any of this, and will likely never make any other than long term deprecation of old opcodes and insecure cryptography and address types. these things end up on bitcoin because they had critical mass elsewhere despite a lot of people in the bitcoin space hating them, like nfts or premined tokens.

the biggest trap was altcoins thinking they can play bitcoin's game of layer two scaling. in reality it's altcoins that need base layer scaling more than anyone else. once they give up their technical advantage on the base layer and resort to merely settling transactions on upper layers, they give up their market advantage, fracture their liquidity, divide their userbase, and leave the door wide open.

alts are for making money, and while some like ethereum have unintentionally taken the concept of making money and wrapped it into their core offering insulating them from the hype cycle, most just come and go every 3-4 years.
some tech is novel and interesting, but most isn't. worse still the tech that is novel is also applicable to layer 2s. these scaling paradigms rip that tech away from those who tried to base their alt around it and into the open market for things like bitcoin, or even ethereum to take for themselves.

look at what happened to zcash, codifying and being a live testnet for new and novel ways to use zero knowledge proofs to then have ethereum rip that tech and add it as a mere feature of its contracts, taking away any reason for zcash to exist.

that's the end game of this market, the strong take from the weak what they can use, and the rest was never important in the first place.

preserving documents can have its uses for censorship heavy future times. timestamping also has its uses. proof of existence can be useful and save costs. things like that. archival nodes aren't enough, not secured by pow.
lighting network or similar l2 will steal kaspa's market share I'm afraid. bitcoin will always be more desirable, and for money to work it needs to be desirable to begin with. kaspa is also more complex overall to make that work on base layer.
it has also unproven history.

but I don't dislike kaspa, I'm interested to see where it goes, liking computer science, it's one of those very rare crypto projects I see positively. at worse, it creates competition with bitcoin which is very good for people.

Ethereum is the most decentralized network in existence.
It's impossible for PoW to be decentralized because mining is always more profitable at scale, which is why it always centralizes and in fact it did, majority of hashpower is now in America.
Bitcoin is one executive order away from being fully controlled.

PoS is impossible to take over, even if you somehow took over majority of stake (impossible) a fork without it is possible. Fork in PoW that magically removes bad miners isn't possible.

None of this matters though, because it's 2023 and absolutely nothing in crypto matters. It didn't and won't replace anything, it started as a ponzi and never went beyond it. No government has any motivation to take over anything. All this time Ripple corporate-style consensus was the only thing that was necessary because nothing was ever attacked by any large organization, not to mention governments. Everything more complex than that turned out to be pointless overengineering.

If a miracle happens and that changes, then all PoW coins would get taken over by America/Western governments fast. But it won't. Crypto isn't a new thing anymore and adoption is below 2013 levels.

initial eth distribution was way better than in bitcoin because it was widely publicized. Satoshi himself mined 1.1MBTC in secret.
https://www.coindesk.com/tech/2020/08/31/protection-over-profit-what-early-mining-patterns-suggest-about-bitcoins-inventor/
Miners continuously destroy wealth, it's the major reason bitcoin underperformed so much.

Bitcoin was a scam from the first day with Satoshi lying in the title of the whitepaper (it's not cash because it's not backed by anything). The plan was to secretly mine a lot and get rich, but clearly something else didn't work out (death?).
>21M supply cap
that's another lie, finite supply doesn't work, but that only becomes apparent decades in the future when everyone would have already cashed out.

It doesn't really matter, without adoption the whole thing is visibly dying regardless of the coin. Without any adoption all coins aren't a form of wealth, they are inherently worthless, unlike real wealth, you have to scam someone into giving you real wealth in exchange. There aren't that many future buyers left.

that number isn't very relevant, if majority of hashrate is in America it's American controlled even if miners there use 1 million nodes
>It's not lol,
it is. Chip imports to Russia are sanctioned, they can't get new asics. TSMC won't allow that. China mostly banned mining, anything that remains is super low scale. Energy in Europe is super expensive.
It all moved to America.
>even if it were, miners have no incentive of misbehaving.
that's not the attack, the attack is american government realizing majority of hashrate is in America and they can control the network by telling miners what to do.
Miners aren't anonymous because they are big industrial warehouses with registered companies.
>I could literally buy the majority of the stake OTC without influencing the markets
You can't, and literally the opposite is true. Mining hardware is external to the system. Arbitrary number of chips can be made, no matter how many currently exist.
Buying enough eth to take over PoS is impossible, there isn't enough on sale.

That's not even the attack, nobody will buy eth to take over, nobody will buy new miners to take over PoW. Governments would tell miners to do X and they would listen because they inherently non anonymous.
PoS can work anywhere and unlike PoW can be anonymous, so a law like that would create a fork, with two networks existing.

Also again, it doesn't matter. Crypto - all of it - could disappear tomorrow. What real business is impacted? Absolutely none. Why would someone try to take over? There's nothing to gain. All this time Ripple works. Why? Because it doesn't matter.
