I think that ethereum will never gonna die knowing that many big corporations, instutition and companies are not getting interest in investing in crypto most especially with bitcoin and ethereum. Regarding the gas fee of ethereum I think that ETH 2.0 already did some adjustments just to fixed this problem that the ethereum blockchain is having.
if the gas problem solved. then Ethereum will be impossible to beat by any other project. the Ethereum blockchain itself is a masterpiece, that high gas fee is one thing which making people concerned about that.
Still can't compare the many projects out there to Ethereum. made no sense to me until now. You can see how high the ethereum chart continues to grow for the day.
Yes, comparing a new project with Ethereum which is already very strong in foundation and community is very absurd, especially since most new projects also use the Ethereum platform to build their tokens, so it is definitely not a balance to compare.
It's very clear that a new project still depends on Ethereum to make transactions on their project. It's ridiculous to beat Ethereum.
Not every new project depends on ethereum. only those projects which are built on ethereum blockchain are somehow depends on ethereum. and now they are all finding alternative solutions for their products because it's hard for communities to pay such high transaction fee.
