Oh boy where to even start
This needs to be said.
If DEXes like Hyperliquid or Aster allow users to deposit and trade on 100x leverage without smart contracts, what's the point of Ethereum or SOL?
If stablecoin chains like Plasma / XPL can transfer USDT for free anywhere instantly, what's the point of Ethereum, Tron, Cardano, XRP or SOL?
The security offered by Ethereum would be relevant if it was digital gold, but Bitcoin has that role.
Tron is already under threat due to Plasma. Cardano and XRP never found product-market fit anyway.
How can ETH or SOL stay relevant in the future? Vitalik's blogs and Solana's memes won't cut it.
