Yes. Game theory incentivizes token holders to behave in honest ways. Good actors are rewarded by this mechanism whilst bad actors will lose their stake in the network. This ensures the network stays secure.

Ethereum’s Long-Awaited Upgrade It feels like it has been coming for ages. That’s because it has. It has been in the works for years and discussed since 2018. Ethereum 1.0 had concerns over scalability and security. These are set to be improved with the planned upgrades to the system.

No! changing network protocols have less to do with crypto value worth neither can it provide sufficient reason for it to overtake Bitcoin. The conditions for attaining sufficient edge for overtaking in the crypto market includes; Surpassing market capitalization values fuelled by increasing use cases, consistent trading volume, mass adoption and listings across vast exchanges including real-time payments.
