Chapter 1: Power Reshuffle between L1 and L2
Bitcoin attracting funds vs Ethereum's dilemma
If L1 lacks genuine growth, more and more crypto capital will flow into Bitcoin. This is not prophecy but capital logic — although Ethereum has institutional and corporate support, it remains essentially a "younger brother" of Bitcoin, unable to stand independently.
The comparison is even more brutal: the correlation coefficient between ZEC and Bitcoin has dropped to 0.24, making ZEC a privacy hedge for Bitcoin; meanwhile, Ethereum's story has been fully told.
L2 has taken over most transactions, but tokens are still struggling
