By number of green months, 2025 is the second-worst year in history for ETH

  1. Kind of makes sense to me. In my mind ETH has always been the early “True Believer” coin. In that it was the pioneer of many features necessary to take crypto beyond just a proxy for cash, and had the early adoption advantage and ton of community buyin.

    As crypto is firmly in a new intuitional era, that early spirit is on life support. Makes a lot of sense ETH suffers with it.

  2. I mean, when those three green months are 41%+, 49%+, and 18% up, it would be hard for the other months NOT to be red, no? Six of the red months are single-digit, and there’s -18, -22, and -31%. Overall it’s down 12% for the year, and even some of that is because there was a 10% spike right at new years last year. It’s basically treading water.

    (The point here isn’t the ETH is or isn’t “doing well”; it’s that green or red months is a coarse and not very helpful way of looking at things without more context.)
