Uniswap, an ETH dApp generating $500 mil / year in fees, just created its own L2. Now, those fees are reduced by 100x and go into Uniswap pocket.
Multiply this by 100x with other dApps and ETH's price will go to zero. A thread 1/12 🧵
2/ The reason Ethereum has value is because of its fees that generate demand for its native token.
At the time of this post, it costs over $10 for a simple token swap.
ETH is on borrowed time as users are rightfully ditching this expensive chain. Who's to blame?
3/ Vitalik and his team.
They decided to scale Ethereum via L2s, but in the process they are losing their users. A bit ironic considering L2s were meant to fix ETH's scaling problem.
As L2s proliferate and users move out, Ethereum faces an even bigger problem.
