ETH vs BTC, everyone's talking about it. I guess it's that time of the macro cycle again...

This is the battle of the world's two most liquid publicly tradeable digital religions.

(Excludes USDT which is a conspiracy, not a religion)

See how short ETH's backtrace is? That shows just how new and untested it is, only 1 macro cycle of data so far.

Gold also shown (6000 yrs of backtrace, a supply inflation of 100% per 40 yrs, not digital).

Data: @glassnode

Personal opinion from this data:
- BTC is a better multi-cycle HODL.
- ETH is a better mid-macro swing trade.
