If L2s work for customers then Solana is screwed. And L2s do work for customers. So we're not really debating whether or not Solana is screwed, we're just debating whether ETH goes to $10k or $100k.

After last year's experiments, swift seems ready to push #digitalAssets payments forward. Mass adoption is within reach.

The #Bitcoin Hash Rate is Back at All-Time Highs, Opening a Notable Divergence with the Bitcoin Price 🧵

September being terrible for BTC is only half the story. You also need to add in "sell in May and go away." Below is a chart of #BTC performance when held from Oct-Apr vs. May vs. Sep, spanning 10/1/2010 to 8/31/2024. The difference? A staggering 13,656,203% vs. +619.5%.

After these negative funding rates, we also saw some strong short-term recovery for #BTC.

Daily Hot Take 🔥 Bitcoin’s Undervalued Security 🔥 ➡ Price and value are different concepts. Price is a snapshot of where supply meets demand – objectively quantifiable but volatile and short-term. Value, on the other hand, is subjective, narrative-driven, and relatively stable, changing slowly. ➡ Amid macro factors dominating BTC *price* talk lately, the market is overlooking one of the key fundamentals underpinning Bitcoin’s *value* – network security. The hashrate, the computational power that secures the network, has hit an all-time high of 679 EH/s, making it the most secure network by far on the planet. Yet, the market is oblivious to this, as shown by the all-time low hash price of $39.01/PH/s/day. It's the miner's daily revenue per hash, but also can be viewed as the price the market is willing to pay for the Bitcoin network's security. ➡ The world has spent the last 15 years slowly but surely embracing the concept of 'digital gold’; if you believe that trend will continue (in fact, the availability of spot ETF means we are in a much better setup than ever before), BTC seems grossly undervalued at the moment.

🚨NEW: @SenSchumer sent a letter to his Senate colleagues where he mentioned priorities for passing bipartisan legislation in the remaining months of Congress. Cryptocurrency legislation was not mentioned, but artificial intelligence was. This, despite his adamance in the @Crypto4Harris town hall that crypto legislation was going to be a pressing priority.

📈 Ethereum has just hit a 4-month high in network growth, on a day (Sunday) that is traditionally the least active of the week. 126,210 new wallets created is indicative of rising network utility and anticipated price bounces from the $2,200-$2,300 level.

On the 1H timeframe, analyzing $BTC with Combined Books at 0-1% and 1-5% spot orderbook depth. Low orderbooks often signal the rally's bottom, followed by a bullish trend. Keep an eye out to spot the reversal in price with low orderbooks.

Is #BTC bottom close by? Rising Bitfinex longs and now another positive correlation from low order book.

Illuminating convo with @drakefjustin but I want to highlight the biggest misgiving I have about how ETH leadership thinks about ETH value. Pay close attention at 1:14:10. Ask yourself, does viewing Ethereum as a big business where its 'base valuation' is measured as cash flows from fees give it a fighting chance to catch up or ever overtake BTC? Gold's mcap is 17T, many times higher than the largest businesses (Nvidia, Apple, etc) history has ever seen. Telling the world you view the BEST case scenario for ETH as a business while the SoV/money case is a fun side quest makes me believe ETH leadership is settling on a 10x in ETH value in the BEST case scenario. Apple has $385B annual revenue, it's worth $3.3T. BTC has 0 annual revenue & never will have a single dollar of revenue. It's worth $1.1T already. ETH currently has $1B annual revenue. If we 385x this revenue to match Apple's that means ETH would 11x to match Apple's valuation. Does this seem like a winning roadmap for ETH? To compare it to Apple/Nvidia? I'll leave you with Justin Drake's direct quote: "Ethereum is like a very large business like Nvidia, Apple..we can muster multitrillion valuations purely based on the flows [fees]. And then you know there's a whole different topic on top of this base valuation of trillions of dollars for ETH to be money, collateral..for decentralized stablecoins blah blah blah.."

"ONE FINAL SWEEP & ONE FINAL SHAKEOUT!" This is what I keep reading here but I have to strongly disagree In this thread 🧵 I'll go over why any move for #Bitcoin from here will be detrimental & why it's either gonna become a HTF distribution or re-accumulation 1/15👇

Looks like #BTC has bottomed, or more pain?

We are exactly two months away from the US election. Imagine how mispriced so many assets are right now if Trump wins. 10yr sitting at 3.77%, Bitcoin at $57,000 and the commodity/energy complex trading in the dumps.
