#美联储降息 How much longer can Ethereum last? Industry influencers issue a stern warning
Recently, I saw Nansen CEO Alex Svanevik share some comments in the community, directly hitting the core issue: "I also hold $ETH, but I really can't stand this blind complacency." Here's what he said—whenever someone points out that Ethereum's growth is slowing down and on-chain activity is declining, there's immediately someone dismissing it with "the data is fake" or "our TVL is still the highest" to push back. But the problem is, other public chains are rapidly catching up in terms of TPS, Gas fees, and application innovation.
The data is clear:
· Emerging public chains have already surpassed Ethereum mainnet in daily transaction volume multiple times · Developer ecosystems are beginning to migrate to L2 or other chains · User growth has basically stagnated, while new players are still growing at double-digit rates
Svanevik's more direct warning is: "Without a sense of crisis, by 2030 Ethereum might truly become marginalized." However, another group has a different view—they say Ethereum is like "the Apple of blockchain," with a deep brand moat. As long as it continues to iterate and upgrade (market expects major updates next year), its long-term fundamentals won't be easily shaken.
Honestly, the core issue behind this debate is whether Ethereum's leading position is truly solid and resilient, or if it can only rely on its historical accumulation.

Apple could also be taken down someday, don't be so confident

nah this is just peak sentiment manipulation playbook tbh. watch how they're crafting the "eth dying" narrative rn—textbook pre-accumulation psyops. the real alpha? when everyone's doom-posting, that's when the whales are actually loading.

It's quite sobering, but being number one in TVL isn't really that useful.
---
Here we go again, every time it's "Apple's moat," so why are developers all moving to L2?
---
Honestly, Solana's daily trading volume has caught up, while Ethereum is still basking in self-congratulation.
---
Lack of crisis awareness is the real problem; continuing to rest on past achievements will lead to eventual decline.
---
But on the other hand, the ecosystem's inertia is so strong that being marginalized by 2030 might be a bit exaggerated.
---
Gas fees are so high, yet people still use it, which shows that nothing can replace it. Don't be too pessimistic.
---
The fact that developers are fleeing is quite obvious; voting with your feet is the most honest proof.
---
People here who say "all data is fake" are living in a dream. It's time to wake up.

Honestly, this wave of ETH is a bit risky. It's not FUD; I just feel like the market is secretly shifting.
