Vitalik's last post was 7 days ago. He was super active on X and Farcaster prior to EF changes. Tweeted almost daily. What if his post on OGs being jaded and Ethereum needing new blood was not about you & me, but Vitalik himself? "It's on the next generation now."

Preparing for a Quiet CT and Slow Market Major news catalysts seem exhausted, but macro remains uncertain. Notably, Trump is trying to pressure Powell, who said the economy is in good shape and sees no urgency to cut interest rates. Crypto regulation is bullish but will take time. That's bad news for sentiment driven crypto market and even worse for those holding alts with huge unlocks. On the flip side, mindshare space opens up for real builders and new launches: Monad, MegaETH, Abstract etc. You now have the stage to show off the best you built. And this is bullish: this cycle has been driven by external macro forces, from ETFs to regulatory changes. Now, I want to see internal crypto machine driving prices up.

I have 140k followers on X and 1.7k here. This reminds of my early Twitter days so I can post more freely here. On X I have to be more careful

Uniswap Foundation votes on a massive $165.5m USD funding. Why? Uniswap v4 and Unichain launch is underwhelming. https://x.com/DefiIgnas/status/1897241034318365049

Vitalik's "copy-pasta" post is true that crypto degens aren't buying much anymore; they are waiting for an exit pump to sell. But what's the "young blood" here? Gen-Z or millennial retail outside of crypto are broke and can barely pay their rent. Institutions could buy ETH if RWA and tokenization picks up speed. BlackRock is a big player to follow. But even institutions prefer BTC as it's easy to understand in this unstable macro situation. ETF flow numbers prove that. I know that my observations, based on discussions with a few IRL friends and crypto private chats, are anecdotal. However, we, crypto degens, truly think alike and often follow similar trends and are easily driven by FOMO. So it's a big task for the new EF and Etherealize leadership to change the sentiment. I see some signs of it happening. But I'd bet on crypto natives regaining bullishness in ETH happening before any new "young blood" buys our bags.

Who's buying $ETH? ETH was a consensus buy-and-hold, along with BTC, during the bear market. But as the bull market began and ETH underperformed, many holders grew impatient and rotated their bags to BTC, SOL, and other coins. I was one of them. People I talk to still continue to move from ETH to other alts. Some even prefer buying XRP, ADA, and LTC... They know these are shitcoins but they doubt ETH will regain any bullish sentiment soon. And those who have recently sold their crypto are not considering ETH as a buying option.

Is this true? Warpcast rewards are being gamed. Couple accounts on top of leaderboard are liking each other posts and hardly anyone else. Not even other top casters.
