    1. Do you think we’ll break 2k eth in July
    2. Got liquidated on my first real futures trade
    3. Most ETH “valuation” is still TA or narratives — we tried building one that starts from the chain itself and the result is a first-principles valuation model for Ethereum, based on demand-side fee flows for ETH
