- @sassal0x: Why Ethereum's 100% uptime and anti-fragility matter
Sassal0x argues that Ethereum's 100% uptime and anti-fragility matter, and that the network's design makes an outage as unlikely as possible. The post says Ethereum's ecosystem planned for critical failures long ago by pursuing measures such as real client diversity, though it concedes no one can be certain a catastrophic bug will never take the network offline. It also describes Ethereum as the world's most reliable settlement layer, claiming it is always online, always available and censorship-resistant, and says no other network is competing in that arena.

- @sassal0x: Circle IPO is very bullish for Ethereum
- @sassal0x: Bitcoin vs Ethereum network security compared
The author of this post argues that Ethereum's network is more secure than Bitcoin's, and that Bitcoin's network security matters for BTC as an asset. The post claims Bitcoin has real centralization under proof of work, weak censorship resistance, no finality, no long-term security budget, no client diversity, and vulnerability to cartelization and spawn camping. It credits Ethereum with home validators, censorship resistance tested against OFAC sanctions, finality backed by tens of billions of dollars, tail issuance, and more than 10 clients. It says Bitcoin's monetary policy certainty is its only advantage over Ethereum and calls the security budget issue its weak point.
- Ethereum & wealth effect
The author argues that Ethereum's value drivers have historically come from "wealth effects," but that a lasting chain needs non-speculative use cases, and that Ethereum is working toward them. The piece says ETH rose from $10 to $1,400 in about 12 months in 2017, driven by ICOs, and from $80 to $4,900 in 2020/2021, driven by DeFi summer and NFTs. In 2023/2024, it says the wealth effect went to Solana instead, where SOL bottomed at a $5 billion market cap while ETH bottomed at a $100 billion market cap ($880). It names non-casino DeFi, real-world asset tokenization, TradFi integrations and non-DeFi apps as sustainable drivers.
