DBS launching crypto structured products.

Probably early among banks.

9 months after US ETFs launched - good indicator of how long it takes!

Bullish. Image

2025 will be the mother of all bull markets.

Here are 9 predictions for next year:
1/ Memecoins continue to onboard retail to crypto - and smash onchain metrics.

We'll see new records in DEX volume for lots of chain.

Better infra, easier UX, lower tx fees ... These all make the journey onchain better for newcomers.
2/ DeFi renaissance.

Gary's gone. Revenue switch = on.

We actually have useful DeFi protocols now that tons of capital can flow into.

Perhaps valueless gov tokens will accrue value. (NFA)

Been asked about crypto going forward.

Below are 6 themes I think will play a role in the next cycle.

🧡
1/ Fintech frontend + crypto backend.

PayPal already has a stablecoin. Revolut lets you stake ETH.

And crypto startups like @basedappHQ already feel like fintech products.

Long-term, crypto replaces the backends for fintech.
2/ Gambling and betting.

Just makes a lot more sense with a DeFi backend. Instead of house taking a spread, it can live off the yields on capital.

L2s and account abstraction make apps more accessible to normies.

@LooksRare launched Yolo. @rollbitcom @PoolTogether_ etc

How to scam people on @Airbnb - a quick guide.

(I know because I fell for it)
1. Create an ad that looks good, and make sure you leave out some information.

Add some fake reviews - note how these two guests coincidentally stayed with 2/2 same hosts πŸ€”
3. Immediately push guest to share phone number after they book:

Some people don’t understand why we charge money for @nansen_ai.

Quick thread on why we charge:
1. Contributors to Nansen should be paid.

Voluntary contributions can work for a while, but it’s not sustainable.

VC money can pay for a while, but also not sustainable.
2. When users pay, the product has to be the best.

It sets a high bar for us.

I’m not interested in nice-to-have analytics. I want us to shoot for need-to-have.

We are top-right here: Image

2.5% of all ETH is sitting in the Grayscale Trust yet no-one can find it on-chain?
I’m pretty sure @nansen_ai has the most complete tracking of Coinbase holdings. (Not perfect!)

CB is the custodian of Grayscale.

I see 4.85m ETH in CB wallets.

Assume 3m ETH of this is Grayscale.

That leaves only 1.85m ETH for other CB customers; 1/3rd of what Binance holds.
Given that CB has 1/8th the spot volume of Binance, holding 1/3rd the ETH reserves (excl. Grayscale) seems reasonable.

CB probably also has other large custody clients.

So: my guess is that the Grayscale ETH is already sitting in what we’ve tagged as CB in @nansen_ai.
