I recently paid attention to some sharp insights from Adam Back, the founder of Blockstream and one of the pioneers in the Bitcoin community. He has a very different perspective on Ethereum.

According to Adam Back, the problem with ETH is not minor but rooted in its fundamental design. The complex account system and the transition to Proof-of-Stake have introduced significant risks. This not only increases technical complexity but also leads to concentration of power among large token holders.

What’s interesting is that Adam Back believes no upgrade can solve these fundamental issues. He also points out that the Ethereum Virtual Machine is too complex and vulnerable to exploitation. This complexity, according to Adam Back, has facilitated major hacks on trading platforms, where attackers exploit vulnerabilities in smart contracts.

The most surprising part is his stance: "Sell ETH before it drops to zero and buy Bitcoin." That’s a pretty strong statement from someone as influential as Adam Back in the industry. He seems to genuinely believe that Bitcoin remains a better choice in terms of technology and security compared to other solutions on the market.
