Competition around token migration is fascinating.

I'm interested in the pulse of Crypto Twitter here. Does Binance Chain represent an existential threat to Ethereum?
Some references below 👇

Great point that the reverse is potentially true. Bringing in to main thread.
More info from people whose job it is to know things:
For the sake of completeness - & so this poll isn't just a different way of asking which tribes people are from - would love to hear from any Ethereum folks who *DO* think it represents a threat. Okay if most don't, but I feel like there have to be some nuanced perspectives here.

Forking a prediction from @wheatpond that by 2020, 25% of startups will raise on Stablecoins.

Benefits "Easier, cheaper, works on weekends, doesn’t tie you into a relationship with a third party who can make ridiculous demands on how you do business"

What do you think?

Long Reads Sunday #43.

Welcome to the epically exhausted Easter Bunny edition of LRS, brought to you from a Red Eye en route back to JFK.

May this 40,000 foot view of the world bring some insight (or at least some extra snark). Let’s dive in, shall we? 👇
2/ We have to start the week with #delistBSV. As we shared last week, BSV’s backers have started to get extra litigious, arising the ire of the community, warnings, and subsequent call to delist from exchanges.
3/ Subsequently, @binance @krakenfx and @ShapeShift_io delisted BSV.

It is an interesting moment - I’ve seen some argue that it demonstrates an industry immaturity that will turn off investors, while others see it as the community defending its values. theblockcrypto.com/2019/04/16/kra…

0/ Been away from the #crypto and #blockchain space for a while and now find yourself out-of-the-loop?

Fear not! I've pieced together a thread dedicated to ecosystem events that occurred over the past day or two. Read on to get back up to speed.
1/ 🥼 Over on #EthResearch, @JieyiLong proposed a SNARK-based sidechain for #ERC20 tokens.

1/ #Ethereum is noticeably soft while many of its "next gen" competitors are showing strong bounces after brutal falls. coinmarketcap.com/all/views/all/
2/ #Ethereum's softness also clear in the context of the top 10. In stark contrast to how this bear market started, where $ETH was one of the most resilient assets.
3/ To be fair, #Ethereum is still down less from its all-time high than its aforementioned "next gen" competitors.
