Ethereum, a Sleeping Giant?
Ryan Sean Adams from Bankless believes Ethereum has remained undervalued during the current market rally. He said on Dec. 4:
“ETH price at $2,200 is hilarious.”
Indeed, Ethereum’s price has been rising in the recent rally, but compared to Bitcoin, its price has given a slow performance.
Adams said Ethereum is the only profitable chain, making $2.7 billion in annualized profits. Moreover, Adams claims that Ethereum will also likely get a spot exchange-traded fund (ETF) approval. Hence, he said:
“ETH hasn’t had its bull market run yet.”
As of writing, Ethereum is trading at $2,358, down by more than 50% from its all-time highs.

El Salvador Portfolio Enters Into Green Territory
This week, as Bitcoin surged past $44,000, El Salvador’s BTC portfolio finally turned into a profit. Nayib Bukele, the President of El Salvador, was heavily criticized by mainstream media houses for his Bitcoin strategy.
Hence, demanding an apology, Bukele wrote:
“Nonetheless, it is important that the naysayers and the authors of those hit pieces take back their statements. The responsible thing to do would be for them to issue retractions, offer apologies, or, at the very least, acknowledge that El Salvador is now yielding a profit, just as they repeatedly reported that we were incurring losses.
“If they consider themselves true journalists, they should report this new reality with the same intensity they reported the previous one.”
As of writing, El Salvador’s portfolio is up by 2.42%, with an unrealized profit of $2.8 million.
