There's been good conversation recently about the amount people *actually pay* to use blockchains, stripping out the inflation subsidy.

At @placeholdervc's annual meeting a few months back, we shared this graph to show #Ethereum's lead versus other smart contract platforms:
2/ Yes the data can be updated (I encourage someone to do it, @alexhevans is busy with other things 🙂), and notable smart contract chains like EOS are missing because their fee model is different (really a cost of capital fee). But the point stands...
3/ #Ethereum is orders of magnitude ahead of any of its competitors in terms of people willing to pay for its utility.

Speculation may buoy "Ethereum Killers" for a while, but for many it will eventually become clear the emperor has no clothes: placeholder.vc/blog/2019/10/2…
4/ Intriguingly, the willingness of people to pay for #Ethereum's on-chain utility rivals that of #Bitcoin. This is not to say one is better than the other, but that both are great.
5/ While on this topic, is there a live site to track the different Fee Ratio Multiples (FRM) of top cryptonetworks? I know @coinmetrics has transaction fees, but I don't see FRM.

For the uninitiated, here's the seminal FRM article from @teo_leibowitz 💪: medium.com/coinmonks/intr…
