Family, the pattern is opening up! While you are still feeling emo about a few hundred dollars in floating losses, Trend Research has already charged towards ETH with a 'top-up' amount of 1 billion dollars, even though they are still down 140 million dollars! This operation has left me dumbfounded, but upon closer inspection, this is not about having too much money to burn; rather, Trend Research is using real money to tell us: the future of ETH is worth far more than we think! Today, let's talk about where the long-term value of ETH lies and why whales are willing to continue to increase their positions during floating losses.
First, we need to understand a core question: why did Trend Research, as a professional institution, specifically choose ETH and continue to increase their holdings even while facing floating losses? The answer is simple: the ecological advantages and long-term development potential of Ethereum are the most reliable in the current crypto market. We can analyze this from two dimensions:
The first dimension is the completeness of the ecosystem. To date, Ethereum has built the largest and most comprehensive crypto ecosystem in the world. Whether in the DeFi field with lending, trading, and wealth management, or in the NFT field with creation, trading, and collection, or in the Layer 2 field with scaling solutions, Ethereum is the absolute core platform. According to incomplete statistics, the number of projects in the current Ethereum ecosystem has exceeded 10,000, and the number of users has also surpassed tens of millions. This enormous ecological advantage is unmatched by any other public chain and is the core support for Ethereum's long-term value.
The second dimension is the continuous upgrade of technology. Since its inception, Ethereum has been constantly undergoing technological upgrades and optimizations. From the initial PoW consensus mechanism to the current PoS consensus mechanism, Ethereum's network performance and security have significantly improved, while also reducing energy consumption. In the future, Ethereum will launch a series of upgrade plans to further enhance network throughput and transaction speed, addressing the current congestion issues. As technology matures, Ethereum's application scenarios will become increasingly extensive, and its value will continue to rise.
Some friends might say: there are many new public chains on the market now, and their performance is better than Ethereum's. Why doesn't Trend Research choose those public chains? In fact, this reflects the cognitive differences between institutions and retail investors. Retail investors pay more attention to short-term performance advantages, while institutions value long-term ecological barriers. Although new public chains have certain advantages in performance, there are still significant gaps in ecosystem completeness, user base, and security compared to Ethereum. Moreover, Ethereum's ecosystem has already formed a network effect; the more people use it, the more complete the ecosystem becomes, and the more complete it is, the more people will use it. This barrier is difficult to break.
Returning to Trend Research's operations, they are still firmly increasing their holdings despite a floating loss of 140 million USD, which essentially recognizes Ethereum's long-term value. In their view, the current price fluctuations are merely a short-term phenomenon. With the continuous development of the Ethereum ecosystem and ongoing technological upgrades, future prices will surely far exceed the current cost price. This investment logic based on long-term value is something we ordinary people should learn.
Finally, a little advice for everyone: when investing in cryptocurrencies, don't just look at short-term price fluctuations, but pay more attention to the long-term value of the project. If you are optimistic about Ethereum's ecosystem and future development, you can focus on it for the long term and buy on dips; if you only want to speculate in the short term, be prepared to bear the risks. I will continue to share high-quality project analyses and investment logic in the crypto market, so if you like it, remember to like and follow, so you won't get lost in the next update!
