3/ While both protocols have been live for over a year, @NFTX_'s V2 upgrade has already shown to be quite successful in accruing NFTs.

1/ In the run up to @ethereum's Beacon Chain merge, there has been increased discussion around the apparent merits or pitfalls of liquid $ETH staking.

With roughly 20% of all staked Ether sitting in liquid pools and even more staked via CEXs, the debate is warranted. ETH2 liquid staking in pools
2/ The percentage of $ETH staked to the circulating supply is ~7% currently, far from the 50%+ seen on chains like @Polkadot, @solana, and @cosmos.

In absolute terms, total staked Ether is valued at approximately $34B, over $7B of which is in staking pools like @LidoFinance. staking - top layer 1 blockchains
3/ The adoption of decentralized $ETH staking pools has been remarkable.

Beyond @LidoFinance's 88% liquid staking ETH market share, @stakedTokens and @ankr's StakeFi comprise 7.5% of the remaining market. Eth2 liquid staking balances

1/ Listing assets across a variety of exchanges is time-consuming, and purchasing NFTs of the same collection from a variety of exchanges has been tedious, until now.

@genie_xyz seeks to solve this as an NFT aggregator, or as the team describes it, “The Metaverse’s Aggregator”.
2/ @genie_xyz offers two features, Genie Swap and Genie List.

Genie Swap enables anyone to buy or sell multiple NFTs across a variety of marketplaces in a single transaction.

Genie List enables users to batch list NFTs on a variety of marketplaces within the same transaction. Batch swap your NFTs across marketplaces
3/ To date, @genie_xyz has facilitated over 6,500 ETH (~$26M) in Swap volume, notable considering the protocol experienced significant volume while in beta.

Perhaps more interestingly is that Genie’s impressive swap volume comes from under 2,000 swaps. Genie has facilitated over 6500 ETH in swap volume

Our analysis shows that combined, 53 funds hold 228 unique assets across various sectors. The most commonly held assets by crypto funds Q3'21
2/ Of the top invested assets, @solana possesses the highest-circulating market cap (with BTC and ETH omitted).

@BreederDodo possesses the lowest circulating market cap of the top 15 fund-owned assets while @ArweaveTeam possesses the lowest circulating market cap of the top 5. Solana holds the highest market cap of top crypto fund inves
3/ Similar to Q2, venture investors clearly see large potential within the smart contract and DEX landscapes.

However, it’s worth noting that while file storage is a unique category, it has a strong market share compared to other niches. Smart contract platforms remain the most heavily invested ca

1/ The largest DEX perpetual markets primarily focus on @ethereum.

However, a market for @solana perpetuals has grown, with @mangomarkets, @DriftProtocol, and @bonfida leading the way.

The Solana ecosystem now accounts for 0.8% collective volume-share, and is actively growing. DEX perpetual volumes in Et...
2/ The @solana ecosystem has grown significantly over the last month.

At the beginning of October, Solana accounted for roughly 5% of the non-@dydxprotocol DEX perpetual volume.

Fast forward to early November, the 7-day market share has grown just shy of 30%. Ecosystem perpetual volume ...
3/ Despite controlling >1% of total DEX perp market volume, @solana has gained a notable share in markets that matter most to its users.

Solana DEXs will likely be the first to launch markets for Solana ecosystem tokens too, which seeds additional volume and liquidity growth. 7 day volume growth matrix ...

The first 10TB took 1,139 days, the second took only 87. Arweave data storage is gro...
