Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin argues that ETH's valuation should be based on its properties as a decentralized store of value rather than its fee-burning mechanisms.

A recent controversial proposal to burn a rising share of validator rewards as more ETH is staked was withdrawn last month after facing pushback. TLDR: Vitalik Buterin says ETH's store-of-value case rests on decentralization, security, and long-term stability. Buterin backs retaining EIP-1559 even if ETH fee burns remain under 10% of the break-even level indefinitely.
