Whenever Ethereum surges, the market speculates on the "Doomsday Chariot" concept. But there's a fundamental problem with this view—the gas fees are essentially depreciating in the long run. Most public chains cannot escape this fate, gradually falling into silence after initial hype. The reason is simple: after a wave of retail investors get caught, the market cools off, as no one wants to be repeatedly exploited.
This current bull market itself has issues; high interest rates make the market behave awkwardly, and even Bitcoin struggles to generate stable returns. Ethereum has already fallen below its 2022 bottom levels from February to early April. If you bought the dip back then, it was a good move, but chasing the highs now requires careful consideration.
In this cycle, Ethereum is actually a trap. The endless rally after breaking support is a thing of the past and has instead become a signal for whales to dump. SOL's performance has already provided a lesson—once ETH's story is over, new hot spots will follow, and no one will be foolish enough to hold on blindly.

Here we go again, acting like you perfectly timed the market and missed out. So, what happened?

Is there still anyone daring to chase after a breakout? Are you out of your mind? Haha

Here comes the hype again to lure people into buying the dip, it's really hilarious. After one wave of selling, they move on to the next. How long will this routine go on?

Those who buy ETH at a higher price are really just here to give away money, right?

Wake up, don't be fooled by the rebound after the breakdown; this is just the rhythm of distribution. My multi-signature wallet has already cleared the floating capital long ago, now it's all about what the on-chain data says.

It's the same old rhetoric, I'm already tired of hearing it. If you really think it's so pessimistic, why do you keep watching the market every day?

Here comes the story of cutting leeks again... That's right, this round ETH is indeed a bit risky, chasing high is just sending money.
Honestly, the chances are slim.
