@LefterisJP @LidoFinance @coinbase @krakenfx @stakedus @BitcoinSuisseAG It's a hypothetical we hopefully won't actually face. But if we did we'd go with B i think. Got to focus on the bigger picture.

This means the ethereum PoW network now has a (roughly) fixed number of hashes left to mine.

The largest asset manager in the world (9.57 trillion USD) is getting involved in crypto. This is a big deal, as it signals to other firms around the world that this is a legitimate investable asset class.

The growth of stablecoins is one of the most under-reported stories in crypto.

$USDC grew 50x in the last 2 years (from $1B to $55B).
