Ethereum FUD attack? Just when the charts were shaking, developers responded swiftly!

The market still stinks of something shady.

Yesterday (March 10), the Ethereum Pectra upgrade was chugging along on the testnet when all hell broke loose—someone attacked it out of the blue.

Anyone with a brain could see it was on purpose.

Everyone held their breath, waiting to see if panic-sell orders would flood the charts, but what the fuck? The devs swooped in and fixed it at warp speed again.

Let’s unpack this.

While the Pectra upgrade was being tested on the Sepolia testnet, some asshole exploited an edge case in token transfers to force empty block mining.

Result? Block production stalled, and the test hit a brief timeout.

The community went nuts—screaming everything from “Is Ethereum toast?” to “Hackers back at it again!” (Market reaction? Meh, barely a ripple.)

Especially since this lined up with that $1.5 billion ETH hack on Bybit (Lazarus Group vibes), it threw everyone into an extra layer of chaos.

But me? My trust in Ethereum hasn’t flinched.

This doesn’t feel like an attack to tank the network—it’s more like someone screwing around, poking holes in the testnet for shits and giggles.

The devs were on it like lightning.

Some guy named Marius dropped a report on X saying they sniffed out the issue with a private patch and patched it up fast. Damn.

At this point, isn’t this a solid chance to iron out the kinks before Pectra hits mainnet?

Current situation (March 11, around 4:30 PM)? Testing’s back online, stabilized without much drama.

Price? ETH’s current price… hurts too much to look, so figure it out yourself…

The Bybit hack stirred some jitters for a sec, but once it was clear it was an exchange issue—not Ethereum’s blockchain getting robbed—the market chilled out.

Doesn’t this feel off, though? There’s this constant vibe of someone trying to shake the market.

Pectra’s still on track for Q1 2025 mainnet, and this attack? Just a bump in the road during testing.

But an attack at this exact moment? Smells like someone’s itching to stir the pot on purpose.

Trump, the Fed, or some other whale—feels like there’s a puppet master dicking around backstage, doesn’t it?

With Nasdaq and crypto so tangled up these days, if Ethereum stumbles too, what’s my account gonna look like? Still, I’m betting if Pectra lands right, we’ll get some juicy upward volatility.

This attack actually proved the devs’ chops—it’s a sign ETH’s getting tougher.

So, my take?

Ethereum’s not gonna collapse over this. The charts almost wobbled, but the devs held the shield up strong.

Still, is there a bigger play behind this? Waiting for Pectra mainnet feels like waiting for Trump’s rate cut—same damn tension. How’s the West reading this? Crash over, or another hit coming?

“Ethereum’s out to snap Bitcoin’s neck! Altcoin king, hell yeah!!!” <- (top)

Isn’t this an undervalued zone?

Here’s the chart—Bitcoin’s been stacking buy volume for 3 weeks straight, Ethereum for a month, with buying pressure climbing.
Coinbase whales and institutions are reportedly saying, “This price is dirt cheap” right now.
