Delphi Media has a lot of plans to expand just past @PodcastDelphi this year, and today we’re excited to share a new offering - DISRUPTORS by Delphi
Short thread below on what DISRUPTORS is and why you won't want to miss an episode
1/ A common thread amongst the hivemind at Delphi is that we're all perpetually curious and eager to learn
Filtering out the noise has always been a focus for us, so we're always looking for like-minded visionaries to learn from. We call them DISRUPTORS.
2/ Last month, we kicked off an internal masterclass-type seminar where one of these experts came in and gave a presentation to our team
Initially, we were just going to keep this internal. But the content was too valuable to not share with the rest of the community
3/ Today, we're releasing the genesis episode for DISRUPTORS
First up is legendary game designer Brooks Brown who walks through the history of games and play, and changing what 'immersion' means with what he's building at @welcome_to_nor
4/ Remember, this is not your average podcast though
For the best experience, head over to the Delphi Portal so you can watch the presentation, get access to a transcript, and even summary show notes members.delphidigital.io/reports/disrup…
If you aren't a member though, you can still watch the full presentation here:

0/ Should we be worried about the composition of DAI’s collateralization?
In today’s Delphi Daily, we examined DAI’s reserves, USDC’s continued growth, bearish BTC option traders, and @boredapeYC’s floor continues to rise.
For more 🧵👇
1/ USDC has grown massively over the past year, recently crossing $50B in supply.
USDT is still the market cap leader, although its growth has slowed down compared to USDC since May 2021.
The USDC/USDT supply ratio has grown from 0.2 to 0.64 over the past year.
2/ DAI, a crypto-collateralized stablecoin by @MakerDAO, has seen its asset weightage shift towards stablecoins.
Many criticized DAI for being backed by 60% stablecoins, as it means that DAI is also exposed to the same centralization and regulatory risks of the stablecoins.
For today’s Delphi Daily, we examined the aftermath of this week's FOMC meeting, current stablecoin utilization rates, and the amount of unique NFT buyers.
For more 🧵👇
1/ The FOMC decided to leave rates untouched but signaled for a hike in March’s FOMC. US10Y closed the trading day up 5%, and DXY was up 0.46%.
Risk assets like SPX, NDX, and crypto assets wound up pairing back their initial gains as the market digested the Fed’s commentary.
2/ Funding turned even more negative post FOMC as investors were spooked by Powell’s resolve to fight inflation.
All in all, it seems like the market is expecting Bitcoin to make a lower low after recently testing the $34k level.
In today’s Delphi Daily, we examined stablecoin supply growth, long-term holder’s losses, ETH burns, and NFT Aggregator competition.
For more 🧵👇
1/ Despite the current volatile environment, the stablecoin supply has grown by $5.3B over the past month.
USDC’s growth has recently become more pronounced, surging by $5.2B in supply in the last month.
USDT only grew by $700M.
2/ Long-Term Holders started going into loss as BTC tested the lows of $35k. LTHs in loss surged to 17% of all holders, which was last seen in May 2020 (circled in yellow).
Historically, it’s been a sign that the bottom may be in when both STHs and LTHs peak in losses.
