these are real human beings with developed frontal lobes
Yesterday, both Solana $SOL and Hyperliquid $HYPE experienced major setbacks. For about an hour, Solana's network only processed priority transactions, which are manually prioritized by validator owners, leaving retail users completely locked out.
Meanwhile, Hyperliquid triggered automatic deleveraging on users with just 2x leverage in the top 25 coins, hitting liquidation thresholds at 99%. This effectively wiped out billions from traders who should have weathered the storm without issue.
These incidents underscore Solana and Hyperliquid as failed experiments in the pursuit of scalable, reliable decentralized systems.
In contrast, Ethereum $ETH and Aave $AAVE operated smoothly without any disruptions, and Chainlink $LINK delivered reliable price oracles that prevented the kind of predatory liquidations seen on $HYPE.
From this point forward, it's crystal clear what the future of finance is.
The ticker is $ETH.
