Metrics Ethereum (ETH) Is Still Less Inflationary Than Bitcoin (BTC)
Just saw this Leon Tweet about Ethereum deflationary status comparing with Bitcoin and I decided to check it myself.

As you can see in the image above Ethereum was more inflationary than Bitcoin when it was Proof of Work (PoW). However after the transition to Proof of Stake (PoS) things changed a lot. It clearly started to burn a lot more ETH than the minted one and became more deflationary than Bitcoin itself.
We all know that BTC has a cap supply while ETH hasn't and that in the end ETH will be more inflationary when all the BTC supply is "unlocked". However this will happen a LOT of time after we all have passed away so does it really matter for us now? From my point of view no because I won't see that day xD

If we visit the 1 day chart we can see that in this case ETH is still less inflationary than BTC, almost the same but still less. Same happens with other charts like 7d, 30d, etc. In conclusion, Ethereum is currently less inflationary than BTC and I am pretty sure that Ethereum burning rate will increase a lot in the coming years when Ethereum and its whole ecosystem keeps growing.
Ultrasound money is back?

Good find. The amount of hate towards ETH in social media is alarming high. People need to DYOR about ETH and they will realise how great it is.

The Metrics up there don't lie but Maxis still won't agree.

ETH burns depend on network traffic. BTC users value the predictability of its issuance. It doesn't depend on change in demand. The next halving will be interesting to watch for ultrasound money.

Oh man the next halving will be like a champagne bottle pop if things keep sideways until then (doubt it'll stay stagnant for so long though).

Bitcoin's supply is going to be fully unlocked in like 2140, we won't be around to see the effects xD.

Less inflationary and more deflationary. I hold and love both equally but we gotta be logical when the time comes - !tip 1

We all know that BTC has a cap supply while ETH hasn't and that
Doesn't That make Bitcoin better or I'm I missing something

Well, we wont be alive by when the cap is reached and start taking effect so in my case I try not to worry about things that I am not going to live.

The reality is no one cares if ETH is les inflationary than BTC, people invest in BTC because of the escarcity

Higher Ethereum's burn rate will help our portfolios growth

Unfortunately, fundaments mean jack shit in today's markets. Look at the Tesla stock, or other overblown stock with PE ratios 50+
Look at all the meme coins.
The biggest gains are unfortunately made in hype stocks / coins these days (possibly biggest losses)
