Being part of the journey over the last 4 years meant something to me.
The original mint was something I never had a chance to experience.
This time I had to make sure I was involved in the evolution of @midnightbreezey.
@dutchtide is an inspiration, an artist of which I admire and support.

BREAKING:
Europe is considering Ethereum as the settlement layer for a Euro stablecoin.
Not a pilot. Not a sandbox test.
Real financial infrastructure. For sovereign money.
Public blockchains being assessed for sovereign-grade settlement.
Transparency. Uptime. Security.
Now policy considerations.
UBS chose Ethereum.
BlackRock chose Ethereum.
Franklin Templeton chose Ethereum.
Now potentially the European Central Bank.
Crypto rails are moving from markets to institutions to governments.
This is not about hype.
This is about who controls the financial rails of the future.
And Ethereum just entered the sovereign conversation.
π₯ Circle just launched cirBTC on Ethereum β a simple, 1:1 backed token that represents real Bitcoin.
So why did they launch on Ethereum first instead of other chains?
Because Ethereum is already the main hub for serious institutional finance on blockchain. It has deep, mature lending markets, strong DEX liquidity, plenty of tokenized assets, and steady flows of stablecoins like USDC. In short, itβs where the big players already do their DeFi, tokenization, and liquidity work every day.
Other chains may be fast or cheap, but they donβt yet have the same proven infrastructure and depth that institutions rely on for large-scale lending, market making, OTC trades, treasury ops, and settlement. Ethereum gives cirBTC the best possible start so it can be used right away in real financial activity.
Iβve just dropped another $20,000 into #ETH at $1,650
- Retail is bearish.
- Institutions are accumulating.
- The fundamentals have never been stronger.
$ETH is going to $20,000 over the next 5 years.
TIME FOR YOUR DAILY AMOUNT OF BREEZE
ITS MINT TIME BABY
Did you know some breezes have !hidden traits? This means they are double rare as they do not show up in metadata.
A few are showcased here. Can you spot them?
oh and mint, I know you want to, come on, do it, mint it π
ETH price is stuck near $1.9K. Everyone's bearish.
The onchain data tells the opposite story! π
πΉ ETH on exchanges: crashing to ~15.1M (multi-year low)
πΉ Staking rate: fresh ALL-TIME HIGH at 32.42%
πΉ Transactions: ALL-TIME HIGH
Less ETH on exchanges = less supply to sell.
More ETH staked = more supply locked away.
Holders aren't selling. They're accumulating and committing.
Price follows sentiment short term.
Onchain follows behavior.
Right now they point in opposite directions.
Data via @cryptoquant
When BTC turned 10 years its market cap was about $70B.
10 years into ETH's existence its market cap is about $240B. Ethereum also hosts a whole onchain economy that Bitcon precludes.
ETH is doing what BTC meant to do, but better, and it's gaining traction much faster.
