Ethereum co-founder floats idea for trustless gas futures markets—basically hedging transaction fees without middlemen. Community's torn though. Some see it as next-level fee predictability, others questioning if it's even workable at scale. Classic case of ambitious vision meeting hard reality checks.

Thinking too beautifully. Can gas futures really stay stable? I think, in the end, big players will still cut a round again.

Another plan that sounds awesome but will flop when it actually launches. I bet five bucks this thing will end up being used by whales to dump on retail investors.

It looks like another "sounds impressive, but actually launching it depends on luck" scheme... Gas futures sound cool, but can it really run at scale? It might end up being another DeFi tragedy.

Uh, it's the same old theory again. Every time they talk about revolutionary results. --- Gas hedging? Sounds good, but it still feels too idealistic. --- Who knows when this thing will actually be usable. Let's just wait and see. --- I've been hearing about trustless markets for years. Why aren't they mainstream yet? --- This guy always thinks everything will work out perfectly, but it's a different story in practice. --- There is definitely demand for futures hedging, but with gas so volatile, how do you even price it? --- Here we go again, hyping up another "great innovation" on Ethereum. --- Predictability is easy to talk about, but what if a black swan event happens? --- I'm still optimistic, but don't expect it to be implemented anytime soon. --- This is a good idea. Why is the community's response so lukewarm?

Sounds great, but when it comes to large-scale adoption, we'll have to wait and see. Yet another gap between ideal and reality.
