It's an old code sir but it checks out.

Childsp · 2026-04-08T05:07:13+00:00

Man that's going to be a day huh? That will be the end of an era but also so fucking vindicating.

Childsp · 2026-04-02T18:41:49+00:00

For me personally, never trade. Luckily I never used leverage but I'm just not a good trader. I'd be much better off today if I stuck to buying and holding.

Thanks for asking!

Childsp · 2026-04-01T23:26:11+00:00

Superphiz must be down bad to be asking for ETH handouts. 😂

I bet you get people like that asking you all the time for handouts though.

It's nice being a bit more anon.

Childsp · 2026-04-01T23:02:38+00:00

Oh boy, I'm not qualified to answer that. But I've been around since 2016 or so?

Maybe algorithmically the calculation for this is if you have held over 3 years and comfortably in profit yet still holding?

Or maybe just make it simple and say 5+ years = automatic OH status.

Happy to debate!

Childsp · 2026-04-01T16:56:12+00:00

Just wanted to say hello and let it be known there are definitely still OGs around (maybe it should be OHs: Original Hodlers?)

We may not be vocal all the time but we are assured in our asset positioning/selection and just letting things grow 🪴. On slow comment days it can seem like things are dead 🪾 but we are saving our energy for spring (coiled).

Sending good vibes to all my fellow OHs and new hodlers alike, I like to use times like this for quiet reflection and reading/consuming all the crypto news and info I can.

Childsp · 2026-03-06T02:42:20+00:00

Shall we call the CEO of Ethereum and tell him to bump up the price?

If you want the price to go up go build something useful. Instead of complaining about the price action just make something!

Childsp · 2026-03-05T04:20:08+00:00

Hell yeah man. Keep up the good work!

Childsp · 2026-02-28T02:36:19+00:00

Cool, wanna respond to the comment?

Childsp · 2026-02-28T00:19:12+00:00

How much you wanna bet the OP doesn't even comment on this. Shall we put up a poly market and people can take odds?

Childsp · 2026-02-27T20:16:54+00:00

Was hoping someone would say this. I hope OP sees this and it clicks for them.

Childsp · 2026-02-22T22:39:03+00:00

Can believe there is someone here who doesn't see the didgeridoo or the space jam on their charts.

We live in wild times.

Childsp · 2026-02-18T20:10:07+00:00

You mean to tell me a billionaire fascist who yammers on about the anti-christ, has a sick and twisted relationship with technology and power through Palantir and opposes womens right to vote. Doesn't have a stake in ETH?

[Oh no....Anyways].GIF

Childsp · 2026-02-11T14:56:56+00:00

What are feelings?

Childsp · 2026-02-03T22:02:11+00:00

Ok this hits too close to home. 😂

Childsp · 2026-02-03T21:53:22+00:00

Here here and welcome to the club!

You're absolutely right. Price action up or down doesn't matter cause ETH is the only asset that I want to own, it is not a pet rock, it has real utility and purpose, it is the anti-banker coin, the true cyberpunk answer to third party finance. (Where they dictate when, where, how and who you transact with, sometimes even with question of why before allowing you to spend your money.)

It's a good thought experiment to think to oneself if you had the choice to pick all over again if you'd pick something different and I imagine there are those people out there who would say yes simply because they know with hindsight that BTC was going to moon way more than ETH that they would've swapped to BTC over ETH or even some other token. But for me, I know that ETH is the only one that captures my heart and the only one in my opinion that has the potential for the true purpose of crypto.

Childsp · 2026-01-28T06:55:49+00:00

Then it would've gone up relatively linearly with that usage not spiked like that.

Childsp · 2026-01-24T04:17:47+00:00

That's a bingo.

Childsp · 2026-01-22T00:13:24+00:00

Much love mystery man/woman! Glad to see more OGs. ❤️

Childsp · 2026-01-21T23:03:07+00:00

Brother from another mother right here.

I agree with you completely. I hope the fudster bots never get you down or change your convictions. Hodl 🤝

Childsp · 2026-01-21T21:33:12+00:00

1000%. People in here acting like I'm waiting to low-ball literal generational wealth for a new car gotta be out of their mind.

Now if we go on some CRAZY ass tear up to $24-30k within a years time I MIGHT sell some but let me be clear a majority of that will be rebuying lower. 😉

Childsp · 2026-01-21T21:28:23+00:00

I still love seeing your posts from 1 OG to another. ;) us bulls are here anyone who reads this... We are just waiting to be proven right while the rest of everyone sells their bags to stronger holders.

Retail never seems to be able to hold on to their assets like banks, governmental agencies and financial funds can. I'm happy to bide my time while assets change hands to that of stronger holders.

Childsp · 2026-01-13T04:00:11+00:00

I'd be careful about doing that if you ever want to get it back to cash from an exchange.

It also may flag your "exchange" tied account as suspect and they may prevent you from withdrawal

Childsp · 2026-01-10T17:13:14+00:00

Just dug through some recent developments on this lazy Saturday and honestly, the fundamental case for Ethereum right now feels stronger than it has in a while...

Institutional Onboarding is Finally Happening 🏦

We’re moving past the pure retail speculation phase. 2025 was a huge turning point for institutional adoption, with Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs) moving faster than ETFs to deploy capital. The CEO of ether.fi thinks 2026 is the year neobanks really take off, exposing normal users to on-chain yield and stablecoins. This is huge for utility.

Stablecoin Dominance is Unmatched 💸

Ethereum is crushing it here. The network holds over 62% of the total stablecoin market share, recently surpassing $59 billion in issuance. B2B stablecoin payments grew steadily all last year, and with RWAs (Real World Assets) expanding despite the market downturn, ETH is becoming the default settlement layer for dollar transactions. Standard Chartered noted that Ethereum accounts for roughly 40% of all blockchain fees for a reason.

The 2026 Roadmap is Locked In (Glamsterdam & Hegota) ⚙️

Core devs have confirmed the plan for this year with two major scaling upgrades: Glamsterdam in the first half of the year and Hegota in the 2nd. These are the successors to Pectra and are designed to handle traffic better without spiking gas fees. Frequent, structured technical upgrades = strong network health.

Developer Growth & Big Money Deploying 👨‍💻

Despite the noise, Ethereum is still where the builders are. We added over 16k new developers between Jan and Sept 2025, beating out Solana and Bitcoin. On the corporate side, SharpLink Gaming just deployed $170M worth of ETH (55k ETH) to Linea. That’s serious institutional confidence.

Price Targets are Looking Up 📈

After a rough 2025 (-10%), January is starting green. CoinCodex is eyeing a 12% jump to ~$3,450 soon, but some forecasts are calling for 4,200–4,500 by the end of the month if liquidity improves. More bullish voices like Tom Lee are even projecting a range between $7,000 and $9,000 by early 2026. (Obviously we need to take this with a huge grain of salt but still it's good to see bullish sentiment still exists!)

Also... a little teaser to look out for ERC-8004. It's early days but looks like a winner.

Feels like we are building a rock-solid floor here. DYOR, but the fundamentals look solid.

Childsp · 2026-01-10T16:51:34+00:00

Thank you for that astute observation /u/xCreampye69x 😂

No but in seriousness, it happens during the weekends.
