Nice 8% gain in the last 24 hours. Stacking $ETH was a nice decision. We also bought some more $LINK before it started to go up 👌🏻
Let's see now what weekend brings 👀

Ethereum (ETH) History and Overview
Ethereum is a decentralized software platform that uses blockchain technology, commonly referred to as its native cryptocurrency, Ether or Ethereum crypto. Anyone can access and utilize secure digital technology using Ethereum.
With the ETH crypto token, users can pay for work that helps support the Ethereum blockchain. They can also use it to buy services, physical items, or trade it for regular money. Developers like to use ETH to make new and secure technology that makes our everyday lives better.
Bitcoin has a limit of 21 million coins, but Ethereum initially didn't have a maximum supply. Vitalik Buterin decided on this to make a network with endless coins, providing more room for growth and flexibility. Currenlty, the amount of eth in circulating supply is 120.26M coins.
Ethereum first shared its coins during a big sale in 2015, creating about 72 million coins right at the start. People spent these coins in various ways, such as funding Ethereum's development and rewarding the miners who verify transactions.
Ethereum is interesting because developers can make apps which can imrpove various industries. It also uses smart contracts, which are essential for creating decentralized apps (dApps) that people use in IT and finance.
Key points to remember:
- Ethereum is more than just a digital asset; it's a platform for decentralized applications.
- In September 2022, Ethereum made a big change to work faster and be better for the environment. It switched from using a proof-of-work method to a proof-of-stake method.
- As the go-to platform for innovations like DeFi, NFTs, and DAOs, Ethereum is shaping various industries and daily activities.
How Does Ethereum Work?
Vitalik Buterin created Ethereum with the help of Joe Lubin. They first shared their detailed plans in 2014, and Ethereum was up and running in 2015. It differs from Bitcoin because it is built to be flexible and handle growth. As such it is the ideal platform for all kinds of decentralized apps (dApps).
Proof-of-Stake Mechanism
This system uses complex algorithms to agree on network transactions and keep everything secure. To be a validator and help create and check blocks, users need to stake ETH. If they do something wrong, there are penalties to keep everyone honest and the network safe.
Wallets and Transactions
Digital wallets represent ether ownership. Users have private keys (not the currency itself) which they need to make transactions on the Ethereum network.
Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs)
Thanks to Ethereum’s smart contracts, we have DAOs. These offer a clear and democratic way to make decisions in decentralized networks.

We've bet heavyly on $ETH following $BTC in this strong upmove. Although we were slightly too early in that trade, we see signs that the tide is turning and it's time for The Queen to run. Today the $BTC value of $ETH shot up from the supportzone and shows relative strength. $ETH is above resistance at 2.1k as well and consolidated above that resistance. We think we are very early in the $ETH trade.
With our 30% in $ETH and 7.5% in $LDO we are well positioned for an $ETH rally. We are only 15% in $BTC right now because we are selling our $BTC in this strenght. Should $BTC push to 48k, we would even lower it to 10% but we will never go below ten percent.
Once $ETH and the alts take over, this aggressive positioning could pay-off massively. We will take those alt-profits back to $BTC (and maybe to $PAXG and a stblecoin as well, when market become overheated.).
For now we stay 100% in the markets, enjoying the bullrun.

Great to see $ETH dominance vs $BTC schoot up. After Bitcoin leading the uptrend we now see Ethereum starting to outperform.
In previous bull markets for crypto we saw money first flowing to Bitcoin, then Ethereum and after that ALTS, let's hope and see if history repeats or at least rihmes.
