@MoTaw This is the right way to look at the 2026-2028 window. While some call it 'the Ozempic era' for Ethereum (as it leans out the protocol), the real win is exactly what you mentioned: Quantum Agility.
Ethereum has a massive advantage over older chains because of Account Abstraction (ERC-4337). Unlike Bitcoin, where a hard fork is a massive governance headache, ETH can essentially let us 'upgrade' our wallets to quantum-resistant signatures (like Winternitz or lattice-based schemes) without moving the assets. It’s less of a manual migration and more of a 'security patch' for your smart account. I definitely see a 'flight to safety' happening as L2s like Optimism and Arbitrum start baked-in PQ protections by default.
@MoTaw Spot on with the 'rhyming' analogy. Gold hitting $5,000 while the dollar weakens is the classic precursor to a capital rotation. We're seeing that 'safe haven' money overflow, and history shows it usually trickles down the risk curve—from Gold to BTC, and finally into high-growth sectors like GameFi.
If the Steam launch lines up with a Bitcoin breakout, the 'retail FOMO' you mentioned won't just be a ripple; it’ll be a tidal wave. Stacking $UDS while the market is quiet is basically front-running the inevitable shift from 'store of value' to 'digital utility.' Let's see if that Swan analysis holds water!
