I understand the criticism of that marketing line - I would be really curious what you 2-3 word description of (the ideal) Ethereum would be? Also to be fair, Bitcoin marketing (e.g the alpaca sock explainer video) also had longterm absurd statements like „0 tx fees“.

I hope so too! But I don't think critiquing marketing instead of substance gets us closer to anything.

1/ Sometimes it feels like marketing *is* the substance for Ethereum. The core advantages of blockchain like minimizing trust, decentralization, hard to change (yes, this is a feature) are swept under the rug and replaced by marketing BS and multiple “miracle fix” mirages.
-
2/ After trying to find how much does it cost to run an eth full node it seems that some websites that were reporting that the full blockchain size was 1TB+ now report 100GB...Between “miracle compression” or “miracle BS” I immediately thought that it was probably the later...

With the benefit of hindsight it seems obvious they always intended to create a pump and dump scam. ALL the design decisions were they diverged from bitcoin were excellent for marketing and terrible for trust minimization.
