    Yeah, I'm also keeping an eye on Hedera...It definitely has potential.

    Bitcoin blockchain is going to have problems once we get closer to the issuance limit. I don't think transaction fees can be raised enough to motivate miners to properly secure the chain once issuance in near zero. Even if it does work, it'll become impossible to transact small amounts on the chain due to the fees involved. ETH is already expensive to transact and even with POS, it might not get much better. The wildly variable gas fees are an issue as well.

    A protocol that's fast with low predictable fees and low energy overhead will be needed. Hedera checks all those boxes and it does have some pretty big names in its governance.

    We'll see. I'm watching and waiting for now.

    Some are bound to fail completely, I think it’s kinda like the dot com thing in a lot of ways. Without any distinctions a layman can understand it seems like a poor gamble.

    Plus I’m super pessimistic about the Gov continuing to allowing it to remain outside of their control.

    I got some more. Blockchain computing etc we know is the future, and and their protocols etc don't get adopted considering who is involved, than no one will I suspect. They continue be surprisingly low key for what ever reason. I suspect/hope it's not a matter of if, but when, they pop, and their value goes way up, but when, is the real unknown there.

    I continue to buy ETH sub 2k. I have some long dated calls on BTC, i.e. Q4 expiry. Scooped a few alts, not much, think we still go lower.
