few things are as inevitable as DeFi growing 100x - stablecoins are the lifeblood of its mass adoption

time is flat
It appears David Portnoy bought $2000 of a $2M MC memecoin he received 25% of the supply of 3 days before. He then sold 16% of the supply 2 minutes later. Portnoy then bought the dip with $94k and then sold 20% of the supply 4 minutes later Total profit of $156k in 8 minutes

Interesting to see that during last week's price action ETH ETFs had zero outflows ex ETHE and total net inflows of $420.2m People calling for "L2 tax/tariffs" seems like an intellectual/ideological bottom. Clear that all action will continue to flow to the L2s (especially the highly performant ones) We can live with 0.5% to 1% net issuance. Pivoting from the worrying about supply constraints to focusing on demand drivers (performance, novel apps, cohesive marketing, etc) will always be more important - and Solana is a clear case study on the success of that strategy my last RT from @AbishekFi sums it up nicely. let the DeFi builders cook, accelerate

Some great data in here on the market events from early last week and how USDe / Ethena handled it - approx $14bn in OI wiped between feb 2nd-3rd - over $50m in USDe redemptions processed within 24 hrs via primary markets with zero issues - $350m of volume for USDe on secondary markets & remained within 10 bips of USDT - $500k of protocol revenue captured by unwinding positions (unrealized pnl of $11m at its peak) worth reading the full piece
