"This is the most absurd analogy Ive heard. When you buy ETH youre not buying the buildings or businesses in that city which capture most of the value. Youre instead buying a claim on future tax revenue. And btw (checks notes) Singapore doesnt have a high tax rate"

"Im not hating on ETH (or other L1s). I just dont like the valuation. Simple What I am calling out is the maximalism. Wild to be this closed-minded when were still so early No chain is perfect. The only thing that matters long-term is adaptability And honestly I dont sense urgency. Maximalism breeds complacency and I see a lot of complacency right now. L1 is infrastructure and its going to be a dog fight to capture more economic activity on chain among the existing L1s and new ones like Tempo. We have excess supply of blockspace and not enough demand for it. Thats the key issue. Whats telling"

"Dan @DTAPCAP youre a great macro thinker but tech platforms and gold are not the same asset class Bitcoin absolutely has monetary network effects. Im not out here comparing BTC to social apps. BTC is a monetary commodity a social construct like gold.

"Amazon is a network and arguably one of the most successful networks ever built. Which is why comparisons are uncomfortable: when you line Ethereum up next to real scaled networks like Amazon or Facebook the valuation gap becomes impossible to ignore. Ethereum at a $380B valuation generates roughly $1B in annual revenue 380x sales. When Amazon carried a similar valuation it produced $136B in revenue and $2.4B in net income 2.6x sales. That means ETH holders today are paying 146x more per dollar of revenue than Amazon investors did. The claim that Amazon is a company Ethereum is a network"

"Markets today are increasingly short-term and momentum-driven. Everything moves fast everyones online and you dont need a banker anymore when you can try to be Soros from your phone.

"Reading the replies to my post only makes me more certain: were deep in the Complacency phase of the cycle. And yes - we can go much lower. I still havent seen a credible argument for why crypto networks - Ethereum Solana Ripple etc. - deserve their current valuations. These networks have utility. But utility value capture. Institutional adoption isnt a valuation model. It definitely doesnt justify tokens trading at 50x+ P/S. Meanwhile the strongest AI + infra companies - actual revenue actual unit economics - trade at 812x EV/revenue and their revenue doesnt evaporate in down cycles. Crypto"

"Crypto consistently ends up as the lender of last resort for RWAs. Why Demand: Prime borrowers stay in TradFi. Its cheaper deeper and frictionless. Supply: Crypto investors yawn at sub-10% yields So the only borrowers left are the bottom of the pile who can't raise in TradFi and are willing to pay up. Often these are companies in emerging markets where capital markets are inefficient. Weve looked at a few of these at Inversion. Protocols (Maple Goldfinch Centrifuge) have stepped up to bridge this gap - acting like some sort of syndicated leveraged finance desk. But the tradeoff is the same:"

"Crypto industry is struggling to define what a "moat" is for open-source systems. Its really hard It reminds me of when I was investing in open source back in the day. Most VCs didnt believe you could monetize it until IBM bought Red Hat for $34B. And for all the purists out there Red Hat was not strictly open source. They monetized a whole lot for reliability and support. My mental model is this: a moat you can't monetize doesn't matter. That is why I focus on fees captured by protocols.
