$ETH why is it cancelled? Things you porobably need to know.There are several reasons why CRYPTOCAP:ETH is being sidelined—some obvious, others you may not have considered. Here's my analysis.
Let’s be clear: something is wrong in this cycle, and the ETF providers are at the heart of the problem.
The famous line, *"there is no second best"*, rings true—because they ensure no one overshadows their main asset: $BTC.
They’ve already tried to destroy crypto outright—really hard—and failed. The elites are 100% devoted to the USD; it’s their lifeblood. Crypto, especially stablecoins like USDT or USDC, became a competitor, and they did everything possible to wreck the market. When direct attacks didn’t work, they turned to a new strategy: controlling it from the inside.
They embraced crypto, and now they’re making billions off crypto enthusiasts who mistakenly believe these players are here for their benefit. This won’t last forever, but that’s a topic for another day.
Now, let’s address why Ethereum is underperforming—and why it’s likely to continue.
### 1. **Corruption in the Proof-of-Stake System**
All PoS systems rely on staking: the more you stake, the more rewards you earn. Typical staking rewards in crypto average about 10% APR, significantly higher than traditional bank interest rates.
But here’s the catch: these rewards are minted, creating inflation because more coins are constantly being dumped into the market. This results in a class of "retired" investors who stake massive amounts, live off their staking rewards, and sell them without ever touching their capital. This creates constant sell pressure on PoS coins.
The Ethereum Foundation controls how much staking is rewarded. Because it’s run by the same people staking, their vested interest is to keep APRs high, even though this fuels inflation. Ironically, Ethereum’s inflation rivals the USD—a troubling reality for a crypto meant to outperform traditional finance.
### 2. **Ethereum’s Ripple Effect on the Market**
Most altcoins rely on Solidity smart contracts, meaning Ethereum’s performance directly impacts the broader altcoin market. When Ethereum underperforms, it drags down Layer 2 solutions, DeFi projects, and the entire altcoin ecosystem.
Knowing this, why did ETF providers rush to approve ETH ETFs? Simple: *“There is no second best.”*
By taming Ethereum, ETF providers manipulate the market to keep Bitcoin afloat, cancel bear markets, and kill any chance of an altseason. On-chain data shows their strategy: when they buy Bitcoin, they sell Ethereum. This frustrates altcoin holders, pushing them to dump their bags and pivot toward—guess what—Bitcoin.
### 3. **The ETF Trojan Horse**
Ethereum, with its corrupt foundation, is the perfect tool for entities like BlackRock to maintain Bitcoin dominance. By doing so, they effectively prevent bear markets and suppress altseasons.
But this strategy has an endpoint. ETFs will milk the crypto space for as much profit as possible. Once they’ve extracted enough, they’ll dump their holdings, funneling all that capital back into USD. This has been their plan all along.
When that happens, the crypto market—including Bitcoin—will crash. Ethereum’s role has essentially been to funnel cash into Bitcoin, making it easier for institutions to accumulate wealth before transferring it all back into USD.
---
In short, Ethereum is being used as a tool in the ETF providers' larger scheme. It’s not about creating a thriving ecosystem but about maintaining dominance, controlling markets, and ultimately cashing out into the USD.
