All it took was one -- just one -- Wall Street suit to go up there on TV and say "ETH is a tech blah blah blah" and the price exploded. It will only take one more to say "actually, ETH is a better digital gold than even Bitcoin" and that's when the fireworks will actually start.

Like, you realize absolutely no one in tradfi is aware of the "bitcoin has broken long-term security meme" right? Whether it's a legitimate risk or not doesn't matter. Once that narrative circulates, it's game over.
