Materkel.eth posted another great tweet summing up how Ethereum is successful because it is honest. In a space full of get-rich-quick projects and short-term incentives Ethereum does not bribe you to build on it. It does not promise big yields or marketing tricks, it just continues to work.. and survive, this tenacity matters. Real progress takes time and Ethereum's most exciting ideas appear boring until they explode. Like materkel said in his tweet prediction markets are a great example. They started small with projects like Augur and Gnosis and then evolved into Polymarket, now one of the biggest on-chain success stories, backed by early Ethereum builders like Stani Kulechov, Kain Warwick and 1confirmation.
Meanwhile most of the alt L1's got their hype from copying Ethereum's early innovations. However as those ecosystems disappear Ethereum keeps moving forward, more decentralized, more reliable and still aligned with long-term builders.
Materkel's message is not about technology but about values. Ethereum is what is left when the noise settles, a neutral platform created for people who care about building something that will stand the test of time. In materkel's words it is a beacon of light in a sea of grifts. The job now is to keep on building.
Ethereum wins by staying honest in a greedy industry.

im legit tired of this type of bullshit posts trying to cope with this market. I have been holding for 8 years and I see many other assets blowing up much faster. NVDA, META, AMD, GME, SOL, BNB, XRP. ETH has been sucking.
your posts on reddit dont move the needle.

Being honest is a big advantage of Ethereum. People usually attract where everyone has an equal opportunity to take part and succeed.

Thanks for sharing
Funny how so many of the “get rich quick” coins actually run on the Ethereum platform. Ethereum has actual intrinsic value. This value will increase as more and more financial institutions switch to Ethereum-based smart contracts to handle their bookkeeping (and paying gas). This in turn will create more incentive to have more peers running the Ethereum network … (to receive gas) and steadily increase the value of Ether.
