ROUNDTABLE: The REV Debate - Real Metric or Fake News? Jon, Bread, & Andy8052

Bullish:

• $DAPP - Applications built on blockchain are expected to accrue more value than underlying platforms, as they are likely to migrate to the most efficient execution environments.

  • “the future is applications... if the apps are the things of value, they should gravitate to the best execution environments.”

    Bread·57:12
• $SOL - Revenue (REV) is becoming increasingly important for valuing crypto assets, which could benefit Solana due to its focus on transaction fees.

  • “My general gut is that REV is going to matter more for the majority of assets and large assets as well going forward.”

Bearish:

• $LAYERONE - Revenue (REV) may be less significant for large smart contract platforms compared to more application-specific chains, potentially impacting their valuation.

  • “I don't think that REV holds the same amount of weight when you're talking about Ethereum versus something that just effectively looks like an app”

    Jon·32:56
• $ETH - High congestion fees are not seen as a sustainable source of demand, challenging a key bull case for Ethereum's value accrual through fee burning.

  • “I don't think high congestion fees are ever going to be a sustainable source of demand for anything.”
