I've seen a lot more people dunking than celebrating and it makes sense, after all most of us in crypto "pivoted" to be absorbed by the existing world machine. I also don't think most of the commentators made it past the blog post to the actual manifesto/mandate, just a sign of times I guess, clicking one extra link and spending time to read through is tough. On a more serious note, EF currently is the only player with both the resources and network effects to not just keep cypherpunk dream alive but also to actually make it happen. Will this accrue to eth price wise short term? Certainly not. Will it accrue to it long term? Only if it wins (and wins under the conditions it set for itself, not because of being adopted by tradfi). Should we care about price at all? Personally think the goal here is more important I absolutely think that we should have somebody at least trying this on grand scale instead of pursuing financial applications (and I’m pretty aware how funny it must sound from CEO of prop trading firm that made it from financial applications of blockchains🙃). Rest of us can do what they do and choose to hold eth or not. If I’m honest, holding it is a very long shot, but there are way worse cults out there, so I’ll keep my eth for the culture and memes🫡
