NEWS
Talk of the Town
Let's break down today's newsletters.

Over at the Daily Degen, they're eyeing Radpiexyz_io's new SubDAO and their dLP RUSH—150,000 $RDP tokens up for grabs.
And if you're looking for the greenest chains, Base, MultiversX, zkSync Era, and Sui are your picks.
But let's not ignore the elephant in the room: US home sales are tanking, down 18%.
