Ethereum is one of the few projects that has been consistently pushing innovation, development, and research in the Blockchain space with a non-toxic online community.
At this point I'm not sure if actual people still believe these #ETH FUD posts or if it's just online trolls.
You would have to be the equivalent of a crypto-luddite to ignore the positive impacts Ethereum has had on the overall space.
There's a reason why value accrues on Ethereum. Why most innovative projects are launched on ETH L1 and L2s (i.e. #GMX#DPX).
