Will All L1s Move to Ethereum? (www.decentralised.co)

As noted by u/rhythm_of_eth on r/ethereum:

Article on how Ethereum is capturing alt-L1s masterfully while working towards offering options for sustainable and reliable L2 businesses and making this acreative to L1 network effects and deflation mechanisms in the long run.

Specially relevant: the stats about L2 profit margins, and how widely they vary when blob limits are low, then tend towards less volatile when there's a wider range for price discovery.

Remember, we said that Ethereum is to rollups what cloud service providers are to software businesses. What happened after the cost of using cloud services dropped? The demand grew, and so did the revenues of cloud providers. AWS is the cleanest example here. It continued to cut prices for customers and still grew like a utility.

Yeah, cash tokens are kinda interesting. BCH is how to Bitcoin should have been.

[–] CashDragon@realbitcoin.cash 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yes for sure, there already is a DEX dApp for CashTokens similar Uniswap on ETH.

Thats sick. What are the fees like? (with cashtokens)

[–] CashDragon@realbitcoin.cash 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The fees are same as a regular transaction, so super low, less than 1 cent.

I am curious on how the miners will be paid once the subsidies are complete since the transaction fees are so low. I'm learning more about BCH and I want to see if it's worth me providing hashrate for the network.

[–] CashDragon@realbitcoin.cash 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The goal is still the original Bitcoin plan. Build the best usable blockchain and collect fees from transactions to sustain miners after the block rewards dwindle. We have been delayed pretty badly by the BTC hijacking but there is still time.

This is a great resource to answer many of your questions about BCH.

There wasn't a Hijacking though, there was a split and both became two different currencies. But it seems like it has the same issues as Bitcoin as well.

[–] CashDragon@realbitcoin.cash 0 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

There was a hijacking. Bitcoin was created to be peer to peer e-cash and it was on its way to becoming that. Then the hijackers came in and started pushing the digital gold scam. Now BTC is not a currency it is useless aside from some speculative investment with slow and unreliable transactions.

BCH forked away to preserve Bitcoin, not to create a different currency. BCH is actually the real Bitcoin.

Hijacking Bitcoin: by Roger Ver

They are both electronic cash systems that use two fundamentally different approaches. If someone took over 51% of the hashrate then that's someone hijacking the network. If you fork off of it, it becomes a separate currency based on the concept of Bitcoin. I am also very weary of Roger Ver, so we can't take his word for gospel just like we can't take Adam backs or Jameson Lopps word.

Also there is no one true "Bitcoin" there are different types of currencies built upon the concept of Bitcoin.

[–] CashDragon@realbitcoin.cash 1 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Bitcoin launched with huge blocks (32MB), then it was set to 1MB to prevent spam. When time came to increase the blocks bad actors came in and crippled the network to make sure it cannot be used as a payment system.

The point is BCH is the real Bitcoin and BTC is a hijacked cripple with a completely altered design. Bankers pumped the BTC price so people would think it is the real Bitcoin which it is not.

[–] KhantoBlackhand@lemmy.today 0 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

BCH and BTC are two different currencies with two different ways to handling payments. I use BTC in my daily life and have no issue using it as a currency. Even without the Lightning Network I am still able to use it as my daily currency since merchants in my area are okay with 1 conf transactions. One did not hijack the other, it was just a disagreement of two different kind if views that blossomed two different currencies. Also Bankers didn't pump Bitcoin, it was just open hype during the pandemic and it followed suit once more people understood how the concept of Bitcoin worked. It could have happened to BCH if it was in the same spotlight.

That is not at all how it went down. Watch the video I linked if you want to know what actually happened. It contains evidence of the events that transpired not just imagination.
