Dose of ETH

ETH is experiencing strong growth with May 4th witnessing the most new non-zero ETH addresses created since October 2022.

With the ongoing dominance of the points meta, Ken Deeter from ElectricCapital shares his insights on the nuances of points systems.

Dose of BTC

After a few weeks of decreased BTC ETF inflows, yesterday and Friday showed a resurgence, with even GBTC seeing inflows.

Although GBTC is one of the highest fee ETFs, they are launching a low-fee alternative that could explain the renewed interest.

After making new ATHs, $BTC has been consolidating. @ByzGeneral thinks this chop could continue throughout the summer months leading to a healthier rally later in the year.

Seems like a good opportunity to stack sats.

Security Spotlight

Security doesn’t stop at launch. Badger is running a post-launch bug bounty with Immunefi for up to $100k.
