PANews reported on May 11 that David Marcus, former head of Facebook's stablecoin project, published an article on the X platform to refute 1confirmation founder Nick Tomaino's view that ETH is not neutral. In response, Nick Tomaino said that credible neutrality can be defined from three aspects:
1. Token distribution and transparency: BTC has an internal distribution of 0%. Anyone can participate as a PoW miner and it is completely transparent. ETH has an internal distribution of 10%, and previously used PoW mining. Solana has an internal distribution of 62%. Token distribution and validators were not disclosed in the early stage, and there is an overall lack of transparency.
2. Jurisdiction: Bitcoin opened up the Internet native, Ethereum built the Internet native together with the global community, Solana is more like a "corporate token" and has participated in lobbying in the United States;
3. Developer platform: Bitcoin does not have a real developer platform, while Ethereum has a large number of important use cases (stablecoins, DeFi, NFTs, prediction markets, decentralized social networks, etc.). Ethereum prioritizes providing a decentralized platform for developers and companies. Coinbase, Blackrock, Fidelity, Stripe, Kraken, Deutsche Bank, Sony, Visa, Polymarket, Uniswap, Aave, and Opensea are all building on the Ethereum ecosystem.
