Ethereum’s Price Drama: Whales Whisper, Retail Shouts (Who’s the Real Star?)

According to the whispers in the Pi bazaar, the percentage of tokens locked in eternal slumber could leap from today’s modest 60% to a jaw-dropping 85% by 2031. A veritable fortress of scarcity, even as the ecosystem blooms like a well-watered cactus in the desert of blockchain innovation.

On April 23, Fars News, that paragon of journalistic rigor, pronounced the crypto toll rumors “inaccurate,” as if the concept of blockchain had been invented by their adversaries.
