NEWS
Talk of the Town
Alright, let's dive into today's newsletters and sift out the bullshit. First up, SilentDAO is on the rise, crafting some slick privacy tools for EVM-compatible chains. Keep an eye on their Twitter for the latest. Meanwhile, TVL's ballooning across several blockchains, with ETH Mainnet, Sui, Aptos, Mantle, and Celo leading the charge. Humble Defi and Puffer Finance are just a couple of the big dogs in this space.
Disney's chucking a hefty $1.5 billion into Epic Games, hinting at a metaverse play. Bitcoin's smashing past $47k, but let's not get sidetracked by shiny price tags. PYTH Network's airdrop is still on the table, and Moby's just bagged a fat stack of ETH in record time. ENS is beefing up with its own Layer 2 solution, so that's worth a gander.
Farcaster's the new kid on the block, a decentralized social network that's got everyone talking. It's racking up users and reactions like they're going out of style, and their "Frames" feature is a game-changer for app development. They're even throwing $DEGEN tokens around like confetti for active users.
And don't sleep on SaucerSwap, the big fish in the Hedera DEX pond. They're rolling out some fancy new features that could shake things up.
Remember, scams are a dime a dozen, so keep your wits about you. Now, go check out the sources for the full scoop:
SENTIMENT
Trader Thoughts
We bring you the best thoughts from top traders and assign a score to their bullishness. 1 being max bearish and 100 being max bullish.
Bullishness Score: 95 (26.7% 24h Ξ)
Let's dive into the ct traders' market outlook over the past 24h.
@RunnerXBT is fucking bullish, practically screaming that bears are screwed with the market making new highs and suggesting there's no solid bearish thesis with inflows continuing strong. Suggests that being bearish equals being an angry, revenge trading fucker.
@deltaxbt seems to regret not taking a range reclaim long at 41k after a successful short, indicating a bit of fuck-up due to bias, and observing weekly resistance with interest. The thought is we could be retesting highs, but he doesn't seem to be jumping the gun.
@RookieXBT is amped about Bitcoin ETF inflows, calling the $400 million in net inflows fucking insane and indicative of a very bullish market.
@CryptoDonAlt isn't seeing any good reason to be fucking bearish on BTC unless it drops below $44k.
He's dismissing other trades as dogshit compared to that simple play.
@Bluntz_Capital is loving the price action on $WIF and hints that $BTC is leading a charge upward that seems impulsive, possibly indicating further bullishness.
@SalsaTekila points out that the market is recognizing the success of the BTC ETF with bitcoin crawling to new highs and expects ETH to follow suit. He's shitting on paid group leaders who recommended hedging and selling at the worst fucking time.
@Tradermayne warns against blind shorting in the absence of market weakness, using the common sense approach not to bet against a market showing no signs of slowing down.
Various other traders (@CryptoParadyme, @Awawat_Trades, @crypto_iso) shared insights or retweeted notable points, often focusing on inflows, market performance, and highlighting individual coins and tradesβbut the overarching sentiment is that bullishness is prevailing and any bearish thoughts are borderline ridiculous.
SENTIMENT

@ItsAverageJO is waking up to the potential of $NOIA, predicting increased attention in the coming months, signaling a bullish outlook.
@anger_trading is championing $OS from @ethereansOS for its superior technology and notes that market participants are catching up to its fundamental analysis.
@thedefivillain, despite a short-term bearish bias, remains net long on perps and sees potential in $JUP for a future pump but also acknowledges the possibility of further dumps. Additionally, a bullish signal is sent for $ID with the mention of a second squeeze on the chart.
@defi_antcrypto celebrates a successful call on $TROVES, noting a 10x since sharing on Twitter and 15x since the call in his Telegram group. He also hints at interesting developments for $TROVES in the wake of the #ERC404 trend.
