You abandoned miners for POS back then. The path is your own choice.

Seeing a case circulated online, I initially thought it was fake, but found out it was real. The general case details are:
A 12-year-old girl accused her biological father of raping her. There was no physical evidence of the rape, only her own testimony. Although there were other witness testimonies, these testimonies were not independent; they all heard the girl say her father raped her, repeating what the girl claimed after hearing her accusations.
Her father denied the rape.
In essence, throughout the entire case, there was only the girl's testimony, with no other evidence, and the accused (her father) denied the allegations.
However, the court determined the rape charge was established for reasons that were 'unknowable without personal experience', and her father was sentenced to 14 years in prison.
Moreover, this case was included in the People's Court case database by the Supreme Court, published as a typical case for society, and used for reference in subsequent similar cases by other courts.
Personally, I do not agree with the court's reasoning in this judgment.
The 'unknowable without personal experience' rationale used in the ruling essentially abandons the burden of proof requirement in criminal cases, as well as the presumption of innocence, relying instead on the discretionary belief of the case handlers. That is, whoever they believe is guilty or innocent.
The correctness of the case result no longer depends on strict evidence rules but rather on the inner thoughts of the case handlers.
This approach, I believe, brings severe negative effects on the fairness, accuracy, and predictability of case adjudication.
Even in civil and commercial cases where the evidence requirements are not as high, there are rarely judges who dare to make final rulings based solely on their inner feelings and discretionary belief; however, in criminal cases where the evidence requirements are higher, judges can make rulings solely based on their inner feelings and discretionary belief—this practice is incomprehensible.
It even feels somewhat absurd.
In lawsuits, evidence matters.
When both parties in a case describe the same event in completely different ways, evidence should be examined.
The rules of evidence are the most just and effective method for fact determination before the invention of the time machine.
If there is evidence, a judgment can be made; if there is no evidence, no judgment should be made. This is a basic principle. If facts can be determined arbitrarily based on the inner feelings and discretionary beliefs of the adjudicator, it will bring subversive negative impacts on the predictability and accuracy of the entire system.
Furthermore, in situations where there is no physical evidence, only testimonies, and the testimonies of both parties are completely inconsistent, I again suggest that a cross-examination system should be introduced.
That is, both the prosecution and defense should cross-examine the witnesses one by one.
When two people have completely different accounts of the same event, one of them must be lying.
Lies can only be most likely exposed under cross-examination. The truth can only be most likely discovered in the context of cross-examination and confrontation.
It is not the case that without cross-examination and confrontation, you simply believe whoever you choose to believe.
The adjudicator should rule according to the rules, not according to their inner thoughts.
The former is rule of law; the latter is rule of man, even if they wear the robe of a judge.

I started working with my relatives at the age of 11. Back then, I thought a few hundred yuan was enough to spend, but looking back now, I realize how naive I was. At 16, I was tricked into doing physical labor on a construction site for a few thousand yuan a month, thinking it would be enough, but after working 11 hours a day, I was exhausted and finally understood how hard it is to earn money. At 17, things got worse; I was lured by a woman to work in a night club. The experience that night is something I will never forget. Fortunately, I held my ground and wasn't swayed by temptation; I finished my shift and left immediately. After that, I completely abandoned the idea of working for others and began studying cryptocurrency trading.

At first, I had no money to trade and had to borrow 20,000 yuan from my best friend, but I lost it all. Then I borrowed another 30,000 yuan from him, this time I was determined to study the market seriously. I didn't make much at first, but gradually I developed a trading strategy, which is now very mature. With it, I now own three apartments, two villas, and four cars; I've completely turned my life around.

I can share these experiences, but only with those who genuinely want to change their fate—those who are just casually asking or looking for shortcuts need not apply. Lastly, I must remind you: never borrow money to trade cryptocurrencies, the risks are too high, and it's a painful lesson.

ETH will lead the Ethereum ecosystem altcoins out of the trend market

Summarizing Ethereum ecosystem altcoins
There are too many coins, so pick a few valuable ones
Just wait and see

ETH layer2

ARB, OP, ZK, STRK, METIS, IMX

As ETH aims to become the global computer, Layer2's role is to support the prosperity of the ETH ecosystem with high TPS and low GAS. ARB, OP, and STRK, as three of the four kings, all have FDV exceeding 10 billion USD.

ETH staking/re-staking

LDO, SSV, ETHFI, EIGEN

LSD protocols primarily emerged after the ETH Shanghai upgrade transitioned from POW to POS, providing node-related staking services. LDO is the largest service provider, holding the highest TVL in the network, with a circulating market value of 800 million. SSV is a relatively important infrastructure.

ETH established DEFI

UNI, SUSHI, AAVE, COMP, CRV, MKR

DEFI should be the most familiar to everyone. As the largest innovative sector in the last bull market, DeFi applications have permeated all aspects of on-chain daily life. Due to DeFi's maturity, this cycle is mainly based on previous upgrades, lacking in innovation.

ETH meme

PEPE, NEIRO

Meme is a very strong sector in this bull market, holding a small amount is not a problem.

Others

PENDLE

Pendle separates tokens into principal and interest for trading future yields. Pendle also recently experienced a dual surge in TVL and token price, making it a relatively innovative ETH DEFI project.

Are there any pretty girls in the cryptocurrency world?

What is this talking about $BTC ? China is suffering huge losses.

"Many people ask me: 'Is there a huge opportunity like Bitcoin had back in the day?' The answer is yes, 2025-2035 is the next web3+ era."
"But one thing must be understood: the foundational dividends like Bitcoin and Ethereum have already passed, and now the opportunities are in the application layer and ecosystem building."

Ethereum Will Ultimately Die from EVM

Once, Ethereum was synonymous with blockchain innovation, introducing smart contracts, driving the DeFi and NFT waves, and building a massive ecosystem. Ironically, today, Ethereum's most fatal shackles are its very foundation of success - the "Ethereum Virtual Machine" (EVM). This architecture, born in 2015, still dominates the entire Ethereum and its hundreds of "compatible chains," becoming the biggest obstacle to technological advancement.

The EVM is outdated in design, inefficient, and offers a poor developer experience. It cannot process tasks in parallel, has a poor language (Solidity is akin to a toy language), and developers face various quirky bugs and an opaque gas model. In stark contrast, the rapid development of emerging VMs like Solana, Move, SVM, and WASM provides real performance, modern language capabilities, and composability. This not only enhances user experience but also opens up greater imaginative space for developers.

However, Ethereum is bound by its own ecosystem, unable and unwilling to break free from EVM. To maintain "backward compatibility," it forcefully crams new technologies like ZK, Rollup, and modularization into the old architecture, resulting in an explosion of complexity, no improvement in performance, and further exacerbating fragmentation between chains and user confusion. The so-called "L2 Spring" is merely a compromise product of EVM's difficulty in scaling, ultimately leading to the migration of capital and users to more advanced chains.

EVM is Ethereum's protective shell, and also its poison. If Ethereum cannot complete a self-revolution in paradigm and continues to indulge in the illusion of EVM compatibility, it is destined to be marginalized and replaced in wave after wave of technological iterations, until it dies within the cage it has created. What truly kills Ethereum is not its competitors, but EVM itself.
