Following the links down a hole a little bit I saw this statement: "Bitcoin is by far the largest and most secure blockchain"[1]

Sure it's the largest, but it seems ETH2 might now be the most secure. It (at current prices) has $2,400,000,000 staked in the network. Sure this is still in the league of nation states to corrupt, but the penalties for breaking the rules are _so much higher_.

Given that, and the fact that Ethereum is based around smart contracts, I find it hard to believe that this could compete with ETH2.
