I looked at a set of on-chain data for Ethereum and want to share my thoughts with everyone. The recent seven days show a destruction of 72 tokens, but an issuance of 18,691 tokens. The discrepancy itself clearly indicates the issue.

Let's do the math from a different perspective. There are 52 weeks in a year. At this issuance rate alone, the new Ethereum tokens amount to over 930,000. Based on a benchmark price of $3,000, this implies an annual issuance pressure of $2.8 billion entering the market.

This is exactly what I have been emphasizing—if you want to truly drive up Ethereum's price, the corresponding capital must be substantial. Not only to cope with these constantly flowing new tokens but also to protect the market. Just this annual issuance pressure of $2.8 billion is enough to give any bottom-fisher headaches.

Without sufficient buy-in funds, this structural selling pressure will persist. This is not just a short-term market sentiment issue but a real challenge within the on-chain economic model.

Burned 72 tokens and issued 18,691 more? That's a huge gap, no wonder ETH is so hard to rally. A $2.8 billion annual pressure is coming down; how many bagholders can withstand it? Truly incredible. Such aggressive issuance, no wonder they say you need to be cautious when bottom-fishing. This isn't an emotional issue; it's a fundamental flaw. Even if the price rises, there's still such a large inflationary pressure behind it. Just thinking about it is suffocating. This data looks a bit shaky. Without enough funds entering the market, there's really no way to save it.

Only 72 tokens destroyed, nearly 20,000 issued... The gap is incredible. Everyone has to take on the pressure of this 2.8 billion issuance increase, no wonder it's so competitive. Without a continuous influx of new funds, the selling pressure is like a shadow that can't be shaken off. It's a structural problem, not something that can be solved in the short term. This data clearly shows that to support the market, you need a massive amount of capital to be aggressive.

72 burns against 18,691 issuances, the gap is really huge haha When you calculate the 2.8 billion pressure, no wonder it's so hard to bottom fish It's that old theory again, you need enough capital to do it The issuance has long been a trap that no one can escape from Raising the price is easy, protecting the price is hard This economic model itself is flawed Just thinking about buying and buying, the pressure is still there

This issuance pressure is really intense. Who can handle 2.8 billion being poured in?
