Arca CIO Jeff Dorman says Ethereum's revenue barely supports a couple of billion dollars in value, even when you count its role in securing L2s "If I'm on DeFiLlama right now, when I look at 30-day revenue, Ethereum is barely in the top 50. It did $6 million of revenue in the last 30 days." "Let's give them the benefit of the doubt and say that this was a pretty bad month. Let's double that to $10 million, right? Now we're talking $120 million per year." "Let's slap a very generous 20 times multiple on that. You're only looking at a couple of billion dollars of financial value there." "Even if you did count securing layer 2s, how much is that really worth? There's a billion chains. There's virtually no cost to move in between chains." "As an economist, you would call that perfect substitutes. I wouldn't put a huge value on that."
