Saw this tweet a while back and wanted to try this out myself.

It looks like a mess (and it is) but I hooked up everything I need:
- Two temperature sensors
- Two humidity sensors
- Two CO2 sensors
- Soil moisture and temperature sensor
- Water level and quality sensors
- Light sensor
- Shelly plugs for the heater, humidifier and growlight
- Two water pumps
- A couple of fans

Next step is to fit everything in the grow tent.

Really huge news today as @ethereum now has the record breaking supply of stablecoins

𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘢𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 $179 𝘣𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘧𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘮𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘷𝘦 2025 𝘨𝘳𝘰𝘸𝘵𝘩 𝘰𝘧 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 $50𝘉+.

This puts it over every other chain and leading by a huge margin.

On top of that, it saw insane $8 trillion in stablecoin transfer volume Q4 last year, nearly doubling the previous quarter's numbers.

Monthly active senders hit ATHs too, with real global payments and liquidity flowing onchain

At these levels, it beats traditional giants like Visa or PayPal in monthly value moved.

This huge growth is just as a result stablecoins thriving on Ethereum.

➢ We've seen @tether with 51-52% of Ethereum's stablecoin supply and that's around $83-84B on the chain which is covering major stable transfers

➢ There is also USDC from @circle with about 25-30% share on Ethereum, that's roughly $40-50B range in recent breakdown and this is favored by businesses, institutions, and regulated on/off-ramps.

➢ PYSUD backed by @PayPal and @Paxos, bridges mainstream finance directly into this space, pulling in everyday users and growing steadily

➢ USDe from @ethena is another rising synthetic yield system, generating returns through hedging strategies

These are just some of the top stablecoins making thins happen on Ethereum.

There are also the dApps that are bringing in users through DeFi and some other modeld

We have:

➢ @aave making seamless lending and borrowing of these stables with competitive rates and flash loans happen

➢ @Uniswap delievring massive trading liquidity for instant swaps and as an exchange and also diversifying in DeFi

➢ @CurveFinance also specializes in ultra-low slippage stablecoin pools that keep everything efficient at huge volumes.

There are so many bullish news on Ethereum literally everyday and this is how you know an ecosystem with intents.

The constants upgrades and features addition to make usage seamless and even preparing for the future on security, these are the reasons why an ecosystem thrive.

Ethereum is doing great at this.

当下很多 Crypto VC 的问题，并不在于他们不聪明，也不在于他们看不懂技术，而在于：他们仍然站在旧时代的坐标系里，去衡量一个已经进入新形态的世界。他们做的事情，依然是那套熟悉的动作——早期进场，低价拿筹码，包装叙事，推高预期，等上线，等流动性，等情绪顶点，然后退出。只是把“股权”换成了“代币”，把“IPO”换成了“上所”。逻辑没有变，世界却已经变了。加密世界真正改变的，并不是融资形式，而是价值从哪里来。它不再只是“公司成长带来估值上涨”，而是一个系统是否真的改变了人们协作的方式，是否真的让世界多了一种可能。但很多 VC 并不真正关心这些。他们关心的是：能不能更早拿到，能不能更便宜，能不能更快卖掉，能不能制造足够大的预期差。于是，投资不再是“陪一个未来成长”，而变成了“在时间差里套利”。

这带来的第一个后果，是角色的根本变形。VC 不再是“共担风险的人”，而变成了“更早离场的人”。他们并不真正承担“这个世界会不会长成这样”的风险，他们承担的只是：“我能不能在别人之前卖掉”的风险。项目还没开始真正改变世界，资本已经在为退出做准备。原本应该是“先行者”的位置，变成了“提前逃生舱”。这使得“建设”与“变现”在时间上被彻底倒置——未来尚未到来，结算却已经开始。

第二个后果，是项目被迫为“好卖”而设计，而不是为“有用”而设计。真正困难、长期、结构性改变世界的东西，往往慢、重、复杂、难讲故事、难在短期爆发；而最容易被投资、被追捧的，往往是换一层皮、讲一个新叙事、快速发币、制造热度的东西。久而久之，整个生态被反向塑造：项目不再问“这是否真的解决了一个现实问题”，而是问“这是否容易被讲清楚、被追捧、被接盘”。世界不再围绕“什么最重要”运转，而围绕“什么最容易卖出去”运转。

第三个后果，是信任被持续消耗。越来越多的普通参与者开始意识到：他们进入的不是一个“共同建设未来”的系统，而是一个“为早期资本提供退出通道”的结构。用户变成接盘者，社区变成情绪燃料，项目变成包装品，创新变成叙事竞赛。每一轮循环，都会让更多人变得更谨慎、更冷漠、更短视。不是因为他们变坏了，而是因为系统不断教会他们：长期是危险的，信任是昂贵的，耐心是愚蠢的。

如果这个行业最终只是把“股票”换成“代币”，把“IPO”换成“上所”，把“机构套利”换成“链上套利”，那它并没有创造新文明，只是复制了旧世界的另一层外壳。真正的新世界，应该让资本重新变成一件朴素的事——不是“我如何更快离场”，而是：我是否愿意为一个尚未存在的世界，先承担一点重量。

A very meaningful level to keep an eye on.

The STH cost basis often acts as a sentiment gauge. How price behaves here can tell us a lot about the next phase.
