a heightened level of resilience can be noted across our current cycle, with corrections from the local high remaining relatively shallow. The largest drawdown thus far has been -20.1% set in August 2023.

This insight becomes increasingly pronounced when we count the proportion of days which traded at a deeper correction by comparison:

🟠 Genesis to 2011: 164-of-294 days (55.7%)

🔴 2011 to 2013: 352-of-741 days (47.5%)

🔵 2015 to 2017: 222-of-1066 days (20.8%)

What Is a Liquidity Bootstrapping Pool (LBP)?

Liquidity bootstrapping pools (LBPs) are also known as configurable rights pools or smart pools. A smart pool essentially is a contract that manages a core pool that contains tokens to be used on an exchange. Unlike other shared pools, smart pool controllers have the power to change the specifications of the pool in limited ways. Hence, a smart pool is less trustless than a shared pool but at the same time, does not require the entire trust of a private pool.

The main inspiration behind an LBP is the ability to launch tokens with low capital requirements. To achieve this, a two-token pool is set up with a project and a collateral token. The weights are then set in favor of the project token (at first). Over time, a gradual flip occurs where the collateral coin is favored by the end of the token sale. Controllers can calibrate the sale to keep the price relatively stable to maximize revenue or can decline the price to the desired minimum (e.g. the initial coin offering price).

Another unique configuration of LBPs is the ability to pause swapping whenever needed. A pool controller may want to do this for a variety of reasons such as strong, unexpected demand driving up the token price or people selling tokens back to the pool for profit instead of buying them. When there is no incentive for a whale to profit from a “rug pull” or a similar technique that leads to instant price volatility, this allows for more fluid price discovery for the token. Despite the power to disable swapping, it’s quite rare since the pool operator is incentivized to leave swapping fully enabled as the main goal of a token sale is to sell tokens.

To use a hypothetical scenario, say a new project wants to hold a token sale while at the same time, build deep liquidity. They can do this by enabling a custom weight/ratio and also the ability to set a fee charged by the pool. This is ideal for distributing new tokens since the LBP controller only needs to provide the new tokens and a small portion of a second asset (e.g. DAI) to start the pool and initiate distribution. Since the parameters are set in a way that releases tokens slowly with changing weights, whales are forced to split their trades into separate, small traders over a longer period of time. Thus, making it easier for everyone else to get in during the course of the sale.

In some cases, whales may decide to wait until the very end of an LBP to buy large positions which then causes the price to pump quickly. However, due to the restrictions of the LBP, a rug pull event is near impossible, hence protecting the value of the token after the pump as the token price initially increases but continues to trickle downwards over time. This process continues until all tokens are sold and the token is evenly distributed effectively.

LBPs are a great solution for those who want to get tokens into the hands of a user base without the limitations of a rapidly increasing price curve. LBP represents the future of fundraising for small projects struggling with liquidity. Unless people buy the tokens faster than the price decreases, then it’s an efficient way to ensure maximum distribution.

Shorts only after a H4 candle giving a break and close below. Price broke the trendline too, so a break below for shorting will high probable.

#BTC pushing as per the plan and kinda slow now, price now reached the Resistance Formed on Daily and will act as the obstacle for it.

#ZRX reached the perfect level which was anticipated (Major Support). Price tested and Major Level and now reacting for it. I hope you got into buys and trail Stops with moving price. Market structure is still bearish, so keep the lots small.

#MULTI is been formed a support after being rejected high from the resistance and kinda forming a triangle pattern. Now, eyes on Breakout as on the both side we have enough range of 25% - 30% move, so wait for the H4 strong closing to happen.

The significant redemptions taking place from the Grayscale GBTC product as a closed end trust fund, GBTC amassed an extraordinary 661.7K #BTC in early 2021, as traders sought to close the NAV premium arbitrage.

After many years of trading at a severe NAV discount (with a very high 2% fee), conversion to a spot ETF has triggered significant a re-balancing event. Around ~115.6k BTC have been redeemed from the GBTC ETF since conversion, creating significant market headwinds.

Here's the Analysis of #FET :

#FET is been flipped below the major support zone turned it into the major resistance now of $0.56 - $0.60. Currently, price already testing the zone and a rejection is expected and can be taken a good selling opportunity for sells. Take it after a rejection with medium risk only.

#BITCOIN DAILY TF UPDATE :

#BITCOIN gave a close below of the support area, cleared out the liquidity resting below it. Price made it way from the support zone of $38,000, and shifted the market structure to the bullish now. Price did made a pullback now and expected to print a new higher high. On H4 TF, is a mess now, ranging alot, so Daily closure will be important below $42,000 or $45,000 for the next directional move.

#MULTI gave a breakout of the triangle pattern but it the breakout was pretty slow. Price made a range and gave a strong break, which could be sign, also made a retest now. Now hopefully, this might go wit the momentum towards the resistance zone.

Amidst market fluctuations and sell-the-news events, long-term #BTC holders remain composed. Supply Last Active metrics show a slight decrease in older supply movement, but overall, the majority of holders stand resilient, approaching all-time highs in held supply percentages across various age bands.

What Is LMD GHOST?

LMD GHOST plays a crucial role in the popular Ethereum network. But what exactly does this consensus method do? And why does it matter? Let’s break it down in plain language.

LMD GHOST (aka the GHOST Protocol) is a fork-choice rule that allows the nodes in a blockchain network to reach an agreement on the valid state of the ledger. It prevents disputes over which transactions are legitimate. The protocol uses a multi-step voting process by nodes to pick the “heaviest” or most legit new block. This weighted selection aims for faster consensus than other methods. It also enhances security against attacks meant to corrupt the ledger.

How Does LMD GHOST Work?

LMD Ghost is a fork choice rule used in Ethereum's consensus protocol. It stands for "Latest Message-Driven GHOST" and is an extension of the GHOST protocol. Here's how it works:

1. Start at the justified block, which is the last block that has been finalized by the network.

2. Compare every child of the justified block to choose the best one. The "best" block is the one with the highest score.

3. Scores are calculated based on the number of blocks that reference the block in question. The more blocks that reference a block, the higher its score.

4. Repeat this process recursively until a single block is chosen as the head of the chain.

LMD Ghost is designed to be more efficient than other fork choice rules, such as the Longest Chain rule, by taking into account the entire block tree instead of just the longest chain. It is also used in conjunction with the Casper finality gadget to provide finality guarantees for blocks.

Here's the Analysis of #LDO :

#LDO is been approaching the major support zone of $2.62 - $2.69 and forming a Head & Shoulder Pattern. Price already formed the bearish market structure, so expected the break below of the zone. Right now, nothing can be done here, wait for the price to reach either reject the zone (only of Daily TF) or break of the support zone.

#BITCOIN WEEKLY TF UPDATE :

#BITCOIN on Weekly TF, still attempting its way to breakout of the key resistance area but looks kinda rejecting it now. If this weekly candle closed below then we can expected some deeper retracements until days gives any closing above $45,000. Daily Market Structure is also bullish, so both scenario have higher probability to play out, so eyes on Weekly Closing.

#FET made a retest back to the resistance zone, and made a drop around 5% in favor. Daily Candle already pushing down and no signs of market structure shift, so try to trail the stops after candle closure. TP would be around the next support zone of $0.49.
