It's been feeling a lot like 2021 in a number of ways and it seems the #bitcoin spot market would agree!

[glassnode @glassnode]

#Bitcoin markets have seen a surge in spot trade volume since the US Spot ETFs went live in early January 2024. As the market reached the $73k ATH in mid-March, daily volumes recorded a peak of ~$14.1B.

This magnitude of spot trade volume is equivalent to the height of the 2020-2021 bull market, although it has started to cool down in recent weeks, currently at $7B/day.

The analysis revealed:
- Stablecoins are on track to be in top 10 holders of US debt within 10 years
- A simple extrapolation of the last 3 years would make stablecoins the largest holders of US debt

Q1 change in stablecoin supply: $USDC expanded by 22%, more than any other major global stablecoin 🔥

[Alex Thorn @intangiblecoins]

remember that in dec. 2020, BTC touched its prior all-time high of ~$20k twice, then ranged and traded -11.3% lower over 15 days before definitively breaking ATH

likely to look similar here, and some consolidation would be healthy after +62% YTD / +77% from YTD low (jan 23)

@thomaslgrant @LuganoPlanB If you are curious about what #Lugano is building with the #Luga token and their @LuganoPlanB , have a listen to Brandon Ahearn's podcast with @thomaslgrant - some exciting plans ahead for Lugano!

[Eric Balchunas @EricBalchunas]

The good news: GBTC outflows trending down. The bad news: so are the Nine's. That leaves us with TOTAL ROLLING NET FLOWS of +$824m. Also $ARKB and $BITB crossing half a billion is remarkable. For any normal launch in first month that's considered blockbuster-level success.

Can cities issue their own currency? #Lugano did and it seems to be a huge success. See our podcast with Lugano and their future plans here https://t.co/IgE1GvRrLG
