I've been rethinking some of the Ethereum bull arguments floating around lately. Sure, plenty of folks are bullish on ETH, and I get why—but when you dig into the actual reasoning, it feels a bit thin. Take the metrics being cited: "70% of assets issued" and "historically it's never declined." These talking points sound solid on the surface, yet they sidestep a critical question about rate of change. What's actually driving momentum versus what's just historical narrative? The gap between compelling fundamentals and catchy soundbites in ETH discourse is wider than people admit. Worth taking another look at what's really holding up the bull case.

ngl, this set of arguments has some substance, but the phrase "history never declines" is really brilliant... Come on, the market isn't linear. The key is to ask about the rate of change, that's the core.

70% of asset issuance volume—this kind of rhetoric can really fool a lot of people, but the more you look into it, the more it exposes the truth... History not declining ≠ future must rise; how big is this logical flaw?

Bro, this idea is pretty good. I'm tired of that 70% figure; all they do is throw around this number to scare people. When asked for details, they become vague... History never declines? That's because the sample size is too small, okay? The real issue is the growth rate. Can it still maintain that growth curve now? That's the core, right? Most people just hear the concept and start to believe blindly, not wanting to really review the logic. Anyway, I can't quite see what the underlying support actually is right now.

To put it simply, this is a common tactic in the crypto world—using outdated data to deceive people. I'm tired of the argument that 70% of assets is impressive. Where is the real growth momentum?

To be honest, I've heard the argument that "history never declines" too many times, and I'm always proven wrong...
