Coinbase meets SEC

Met with the SEC today. We’ll continue pushing for a clear rule book in the U.S. for crypto regs.
The U.S. can’t afford to fall behind on this important technology to update the financial system.

Spent the day in DC meeting with members of congress. We need regulatory clarity in the U.S. for the centralized players in crypto for many reasons – consumer protection, national security, economic growth, etc.
The SEC has caused untold harm to America with its policy of… pic.twitter.com/eV13Ny66db

BAYC floor price is down 100 ETH

BAYC is down 100 ETH pic.twitter.com/PM6f3yGOYT

Yes BAYC floor is down bad but Lots of projects are starting to reflect their true value, I’m comfortable where BAYC might end up and plus they paid most of us out more than then floor is rn especially if you held more than one ape🤝 and even more if you’re staking

The world is severely short Bitcoin

The world is severely short #Bitcoin.
19.4 million total $BTC are in circulation, or about 92% of the 21 million bitcoin that will *ever* be mined. Only 8% of the supply is still up for grabs.#Bitcoin stands alone as the only significant proof-of-work asset, it’s 21 million… pic.twitter.com/CCvcGzahfd

People have voluntarily “thrown away” 2650+ BTC ($80M+) over the years

People have voluntarily “thrown away” 2650+ BTC ($80M+) over the years
Some highlights:
-2130 BTC were sent to the 2014 Counterparty ICO address
-An address “1BitcoinEaterAddressDontSendf59kuE” holds $375K in BTC
-Someone made a burn address Star Wars poem (for 0.0006408 BTC) pic.twitter.com/jV6msNKepJ
— Conor (@jconorgrogan) April 21, 2023

These coins will never be recovered (barring ECDSA crack) as nobody controls the private keys

Second wave of full withdrawals underway so you’re definitely wondering who’s behind it and if it’s concerning
It’s Kraken, with over 330K ETH in full withdrawals. Another ~175K in ETH left which is largely principal withdrawals. pic.twitter.com/iLmf7AHKWx

Is S2F model invalid?

Saying S2F model is “wrong/invalid/broken”, means saying BTC price pumps after 2012, 2016, 2020 halvings (red arrows) are coincidences, random, unrelated to halvings.
Possible, but I disagree. IMO 21M cap, supply schedule, 4y halving cycle are fundamental to BTC price. IMO the… pic.twitter.com/2ZOUGPhVtM

It is invalid, in the most literal, technical, and statistical sense, yes.
This has been demonstrated by many an accomplished statistician.
It speaks volumes that P B still flogs this horse, and still has no new model to shill, 4yrs after the original.https://t.co/6csFUWtGls https://t.co/oMHB8Qvz3t

~$150M+ in Bitcoin bid liquidity laddered down to $25k

~$150M+ in #Bitcoin bid liquidity laddered down to $25k. It’s good to see some depth, but also need to see some density closer to the active trading range.
If bulls can’t reclaim $29k, bears are going to push for a retest of the 200-Week Moving Average.
