A lot of different things. Spent a lot of time reading and listening to both eth and bitcoin content. Trace Mayer and his network effects made sense, the Bitcoin Standard and seeing all the Bitcoin only services/content/hardware. Also broken promises of Eth and understanding the immaculate conception of Bitcoin.

Which specific broken promises of eth? Why do you think you believed eth's promises to begin with?

Unstoppable code was disproven when they forked after the DAO, and World Computer seemed to be a bit far fetched when I understood what a blockchain is good at.
I bought into the hype, I want to believe we can make the world a better place, similar with why I got into Bitcoin. Back then, there wasn’t as much Bitcoin signal, it was an altcoin world. Also, I remember all traders denominated in btc, that also had a large impact on how i viewed btc vs. altcoins.
In the end it was a matter of simplicity, there was enough to learn about in the Bitcoin ecosystem without needing to learn about 100s of other coins.
