.@VitalikButerin claims that #Ethereum will be able to to process "100,000 transactions per second", following the completion of 5 key phases:

• The Merge
• The Surge
• The Verge
• The Purge
• The Splurge

A quick breakdown of what each stage means for $ETH. 👇 Image
1. THE MERGE

The merging of the execution layer (current mainnet) and the Beacon Chain (new POS layer).

$ETH:
• Now becomes a deflationary asset (reduced issuance)
• Cuts power usage by 99%

The date of this upgrade is currently September 19th, 2022.

2. THE SURGE (2023)

The introduction of Sharding on Ethereum.

Sharding splits a blockchain's entire network into smaller partitions, known as "shards."

This will significantly increase the network's scalability. Image
3. THE VERGE

Introduces verkle trees, a "powerful upgrade to Merkle proofs that allow for much smaller proof sizes."

This will optimise storage on Ethereum and help reduce node size. Ultimately, this assists $ETH in becoming more scalable. Image
4. THE PURGE

Reduces the hard drive space needed for validators. This eliminates historical data and bad debt.

Streamlines storage, which in turn reduces network congestion. Image
5. THE SPLURGE

A series of miscellaneous *smaller* upgrades which ensure the network runs smoothly following the prior 4 stages.
All these changes are discussed (in a technical sense) on @VitalikButerin's website.

Here are the links used to research this thread:

“The difference between #Bitcoin and #Ethereum is that Bitcoiners consider Bitcoin to be 80% complete, but Ethereans consider Ethereum to be 40% complete.” - @VitalikButerin

It's clear that the untapped potential here is colossal.

Solana has created thousands of new millionaires this year.

But you're no longer early.

The BIG profits are made from being EARLY to a new rotation.

There are signs that BASE might be next.

🧵: My Ultimate BASE Guide (meme coins, airdrops, altcoins & more).👇
In this thread, I'll cover:

• What is Base?
• Why the Base chain is poised to grow in 2024 (and beyond)
• How to spot new on-chain meme coins
• Top opportunities on the Base chain

Let's dive in.
Firstly, what is Base?

Base is a Ethereum L2 solution, built using the @Optimism tech stack.

Base, like other L2s, scales Ethereum by making transactions faster & cheaper, whilst leveraging the security of the Ethereum mainnet.

Making money in a bull run is easy. Keeping it is hard.

In 2021, I could've walked away with millions.

Instead, I round-tripped a lot of my profits.

But you can learn from my mistakes, and do things the RIGHT way.

🧵: My top 10 things to AVOID doing this bull.👇
1. DON'T CHASE PUMPS

This is the easiest way to lose money in an up-trending market.

Every day there is a new coin/narrative which is the new flavour of CT.

Bull market rotations are fickle and are now happening quicker than ever before.

Stick to your thesis and don't flinch.
2. DON’T GO IN WITHOUT A PLAN

Before you buy a coin, always clearly outline your buy plan, as well as your sell plan, with clear invalidation levels.

I wrote a thread last week outlining my full take-profit strategy/exit plan, which you may find valuable.

You won't feel like reading this thread right now.

But it might be the most important thing you do all day.

Everyone is telling you when to BUY, but not when to SELL.

🧵: Here's my FULL bull-market take profit strategy (to help you maximise this bull run).👇
The past few weeks have been crazy.

• $BTC in price discovery
• Meme coins pulling massive multiples
• Mainstream media are reporting on crypto daily
But as bullish as I am on crypto, it would be remiss of me not to focus on 50% of the equation: Taking profits.

Just as you need a BUY plan, you also need a SELL plan.

Last cycle I round-tripped too many bags, and I don't want you to make the same mistakes.

AI, meme coins & gaming will lead the crypto bull run (and go MUCH higher than you think).

The reason why is simple (yet something 90% of people f*ck up).

If you're serious about changing your life this bull run, read this thread. 🧵👇
Over the past few months, #Bitcoin has been ripping and recently made a new all-time high.

Sentiment has swung from neutral to extremely bullish, with altcoins also performing strongly. Image
But what does this have to do with AI, memes and crypto gaming?

Well, the first thing you have to understand is that crypto is a reflexive asset class.

Higher prices positively impact fundamentals, which creates extreme momentum (in both directions).
