Thanks for that thought and picture.

I often wonder why us (I include myself) Bitcoin maxis can be so instantaneously confrontational about any other Blockchain. It's really like comparing apples to tomatoes. They're both fruit but different things.

Ethereum to me is a technology using Blockchain that has smart contract functionality. And thereby could have many use cases for disruptive technology. Could replace the engine behind the stock exchanges for example. And so many other possibilities, too much to dive into. But at the end of the day, it's a technology/speculative play. I like a lot of technology. Loved the VOIP technology growth. Love the breakthrough of the iphone that created all smartphones. Love the technology use in Uber. Love how I can order on Amazon and get same day. And I think Ethereum technology could have tech that I love too.

But it's not sound money. Something that can change the rules/code at will. Absoleet all investment in the pow hardware for their network. Have no finite amount of total coins. Is not a sound store of value. And now some in the eth world call their token "ultra sound money" is ridiculous. They make that argument because there can be burning of eth. Sure it could lower the total supply and increase its usd price momentarily. But far from sound money. Something that constantly has rules changes and is a tech/speculative asset is not sound money. Maybe that argument about ultra sound money is what bitcoiners take exception to and shitcoin it daily.
