Circle launching their own L1 makes sense At this point, nothing is proven. Everything inhouse is more comfort, and may be needed as Circle aims to be a foundational layer for money used globally, by 8trillion ppl This doesnt invalidate any modular thesis like AvalancheπŸ”Ί. Major

Web3 β‰  L1s from Circle and Stripe Is it the bridge to TradFi that we need? They can freeze & control assets on their chain Wont have DeFi or true self-custody But it can be trusted by any merchant or business But when whitelisted, "DeFi" can integrate with it That so bad?

Everyone underestimates how bullish Suzaku is for AvalancheπŸ”Ί Yes, they help L1s decentralise But most of all, teams laser-focused on 1 use-case: - "pawn off" validation, focusing on their app instead - use Restaking for security πŸ‘‰ value accrual to own token w/o incentives

🚨 There’s a large-scale supply chain attack in progress: the NPM account of a reputable developer has been compromised. The affected packages have already been downloaded over 1 billion times, meaning the entire JavaScript ecosystem may be at risk. The malicious payload works

Last Friday perfectly visualises GM v2 <> GM+ on GMX 🫐 GM v2 has a balanced approach. It handles longs in volatile tokens, shorts in stables. It's now showing to outperform in any market. GM+ on the other hand, handles everything in volatile tokens. When shorts win, pay outs

Last weekend & most meltdowns? Not the same Big diff was that last weekend is already over. No prolonged price action from it (yet)
