Go hit a workout or go for a walk, come back once you've cleared your mind

🥷 According to Coinbase, unmasking Satoshi represents a real risk for investors and knowing the name of the creator of Bitcoin would no longer be important.
“Now that the [Bitcoin] network is global and robust, discovering Satoshi’s identity is only relevant for history books or entertainment.”
says Samir Kerbage, Chief Investment Officer at Hashdex.
Analysts are particularly concerned that if Satoshi were identified and alive, he might sell his BTC and drive down the price.
As a reminder, Nakamoto owns at least 1.1 million Bitcoins worth nearly $68 billion.

🤜🤛 Benoit Saint Denis' opponent of the day at UFC Paris 2024, Renato Moicano, is a fervent supporter of Bitcoin.
“Bitcoin is not just an investment, it’s a way of life.”
says the UFC fighter.
He sees #Bitcoin as a defense against "government tyranny" and inflation.
“However, before buying bitcoin, you should analyze your options and not jump into cryptocurrency just because I said so,” Moicano smartly reminds.
After his victory at UFC 300, Moicano publicly requested that his compensation be paid in BTC.

At Solana Breakpoint 2024, Charles d’Haussy, CEO of the dYdX Foundation, discussed the protocols’s upcoming enhancements and muse on Solana’s growth.
While dYdX, one of the crypto industry’s oldest decentralized perpetual exchanges, runs its own sovereign appchain, the platform recently integrated Solana-based assets into its platform.
The move brought greater exposure to a wealth of Solana ecosystem tokens, allowing dYdX traders to express their opinion on assets like $SOL , $JUP , and $WIF .
Drawing on his rich experience in the industry, d’Haussy made fascinating remarks about Solana culture.
Solana Builder Energy
When dYdX governance moved to include more Solana-based assets via a Raydium integration in June, d’Haussy and the dYdX were hesitant to approach the Solana community.
“When we started to reach out to the Solana ecosystem, I was kind of cautious and trying to be gentle, not knowing exactly how we would be welcome for conversations about possible integration”
From an outside perspective, blockchain tribalism formed a perceived barrier to entry. Chain maximalism is a serious obstacle within the industry, which is further exacerbated by obstinate and outspoken communities on social media.
Fortunately, away from the noise and distractions of social media, the teams actually building these ecosystems are eager to collaborate and push the collectively push the industry forward. d’Haussy remarked that the Solana Foundation was welcoming and receptive to working alongside teams from alternative ecosystems in the pursuit of progress.
“We were really warmly welcomed. I think the Solana ecosystem has showed us, you want to connect to the Solana ecosystem and bring more mindshare to the Solana ecosystem via your own chain? How can we help you?… The Solana Foundation has been extremely welcoming, connecting us to plenty of people. And the builders were also very welcoming.”
“Sometimes Twitter makes you think that this is all tribes and they look at each other from afar. But the reality is the real builders and the people which are in the industry long enough and for the long term, they are very friendly and they want to grow the cake for everyone.”
Additionally, d’Haussy asserted that “Solana is like Ethereum five years ago”, highlighting the energy and hunger shown by developers building innovative products. The CEO drew comparisons between the atmosphere of week’s earlier Token 2049 conference and Solana Breakpoint.
“We are just out of three days of Token 2049, which is much more salesy and marketing and towards trading activities, which is really the audience of DYDX. So, that was perfect, we had a blast over there. Suddenly, you wake up the next morning and you're going to Solana Breakpoint.”
“It's a bit of a shock for me because suddenly we are surrounded by devs. So, there is this kind of change of seasons overnight between the projects and the business development atmosphere of Token 2049 and here the business, the atmosphere of building here at Solana.”
Blockchain tribalism is a regrettable obstacle, but easily overcome. As evidenced by dYdX and the Solana, teams from different chains can always find ways to work together in a way that benefits both parties and further advances the space.

Hamster finally gave out the drop that hundreds of thousands of players have been waiting for.
😬 No words, only emotions - that's how you can describe the HMSTR drop. The average per account came out to ~$15, which probably didn't meet the expectations of many.
As a reminder, the listing will take place on September 26 on all top exchanges.
What are the feelings about the drop? 🐹

Sentiment is down, and critics have been quick to point out ETH's underperformance against SOL while largely attributing this to a perceived loss of mindshare and users to L2s.
This narrative has sparked a crucial debate: Are L2s Ethereum?
arjunnchand
brings the analysis...
========================================
🤔 Symbiotic or Separatist?
L2s have been a core component of Ethereum's rollup-centric roadmap from the very beginning. They were envisioned as extensions (technical and cultural) of Ethereum, designed to expand its capabilities and attract a broader user base.
At their core, L2s are deeply linked with Ethereum. They share its DNA — relying on ETH as the currency, benefitting from Ethereum's security blanket, and utilizing it for data storage and settlement. It's like a startup leveraging its parent company's infrastructure and brand recognition, a win-win for both.
The symbiotic relationship between L2s and Ethereum is undeniable. L2s thrive on Ethereum's infrastructure and security, while Ethereum benefits from the increased activity and increased demand for ETH, making it a better store of value.
By offering lower fees and faster transaction times, L2s have made it easier for developers to build different types of applications. Look at the explosion of memecoins on Base or the rise of SocialFi platforms like Farcaster creating new markets for users.
Beyond that, L2s are becoming major hubs for DeFi activity, and ETH, the asset, is at the heart of this ecosystem. Look at the numbers:
arbitrum
,
Optimism
,
@base
— these chains are dominated by ETH-related assets.
🧛♂️ Vampire attack?
However, one of the primary arguments against the rollup-centric approach to scaling Ethereum is the assumption that L2s may not continue to rely on Ethereum. Sure, L2s and Ethereum seem like a happy family now. But what if L2s build their own empires and ditch Ethereum altogether? No more relying on Ethereum for security, no more ETH as gas, not even needing Ethereum's block space.
This "L2s go rogue" fear is a legitimate concern. Technically, they could build independent ecosystems with their own validators as they would then be able to own the entire modular blockchain stack. So, is this the future – a messy breakup between L2s and Ethereum? Not necessarily.
We can all agree that there are perhaps a few too many L2s. Too many copycats. Too little differentiation. It's like a thousand startups chasing the same market, all promising the same thing. This isn't healthy.
What we need are L2s that matter. L2s that offer something unique, something that sets them apart. Security, app diversity, GTM strategy — these are the areas where we need to see real innovation.
But we must be wary of ‘echo chambers’. These zones of chains should not become isolated universes. A healthy L2 ecosystem is one where chains work together, not in isolation. We need bridges, not moats.
We need collaboration. We need communication. We need education. We need incentives. We need to build shared infrastructure and standards that foster seamless connectivity across L2s. Only then can we truly win together.
💭 Closing Thoughts
You can say that L2s aren’t Ethereum. You can argue L2s aren’t even extensions of Ethereum. But you cannot deny the fact that L2s enhance the utility of Ethereum and ETH.
The "L2s vs. Ethereum" debate is a false dichotomy. This isn't a zero-sum game. Ultimately, Ethereum and L2s are in this together. Let's build a future where Ethereum and L2s thrive as a symbiotic whole, and push the crypto ecosystem forward.
This narrative has sparked a crucial debate: Are L2s Ethereum?
arjunnchand
brings the analysis...
========================================
🤔 Symbiotic or Separatist?
L2s have been a core component of Ethereum's rollup-centric roadmap from the very beginning. They were envisioned as extensions (technical and cultural) of Ethereum, designed to expand its capabilities and attract a broader user base.
At their core, L2s are deeply linked with Ethereum. They share its DNA — relying on ETH as the currency, benefitting from Ethereum's security blanket, and utilizing it for data storage and settlement. It's like a startup leveraging its parent company's infrastructure and brand recognition, a win-win for both.
The symbiotic relationship between L2s and Ethereum is undeniable. L2s thrive on Ethereum's infrastructure and security, while Ethereum benefits from the increased activity and increased demand for ETH, making it a better store of value.
By offering lower fees and faster transaction times, L2s have made it easier for developers to build different types of applications. Look at the explosion of memecoins on Base or the rise of SocialFi platforms like Farcaster creating new markets for users.
Beyond that, L2s are becoming major hubs for DeFi activity, and ETH, the asset, is at the heart of this ecosystem. Look at the numbers:
arbitrum
,
Optimism
,
@base
— these chains are dominated by ETH-related assets.
🧛♂️ Vampire attack?
However, one of the primary arguments against the rollup-centric approach to scaling Ethereum is the assumption that L2s may not continue to rely on Ethereum. Sure, L2s and Ethereum seem like a happy family now. But what if L2s build their own empires and ditch Ethereum altogether? No more relying on Ethereum for security, no more ETH as gas, not even needing Ethereum's block space.
This "L2s go rogue" fear is a legitimate concern. Technically, they could build independent ecosystems with their own validators as they would then be able to own the entire modular blockchain stack. So, is this the future – a messy breakup between L2s and Ethereum? Not necessarily.
We can all agree that there are perhaps a few too many L2s. Too many copycats. Too little differentiation. It's like a thousand startups chasing the same market, all promising the same thing. This isn't healthy.
What we need are L2s that matter. L2s that offer something unique, something that sets them apart. Security, app diversity, GTM strategy — these are the areas where we need to see real innovation.

Phantom, Solana’s most widely used wallet provider, has drawn criticism from some users for charging fees on in-app token swaps.
While some disgruntled community members attacked Phantom, voices across the Solana ecosystem came to the wallet’s defence. Reigniting debate around business models in the Web3 world, Phantom’s supporters argue that the platform has a right to generate revenue.
In an industry where meme coin presales can raise over $40M , is it fair to attack businesses providing essential services for charging easily avoidable fees?
SOLANA COMMUNITY MEMBERS COMPLAIN ABOUT 0.85% SWAP FEE
Frustrated Solana users have taken to 𝕏 to air their grievances about Phantom’s in-app swap fees. The public outrage came following circulation of data suggesting that the wallet provider generated over $30M in revenue through token swaps.
Comparisons between quotes between wallets and DEX aggregator Jupiter only added further fuel to the fire. Perhaps spurred on by stagnant market conditions, commentators on social media remarked that discrepancies between swaps provided by Phantom and Jupiter were “actually ridiculous.”
Eagle-eyed users remarked that the data wasn’t wholly accurate. Galactic Geckos founder Genuine Articles highlighted that the $30M figure was lower than expected, before Fabiano.sol, the influencer who originally shared the data, acknowledged that Phantom would’ve generated over $10M through in-app token swaps in 2021 alone.
While it’s obvious that traders can access better rates by using platforms like Jupiter directly, can Wallet providers be blamed for charging fees on value-added services?
Is the Slander Against Phantom Justified?
Content creator and former Phantom team member Seb Montgomery countered the attacks levied against Phantom. Arguing that every business has operational costs that need paid, Montgomery asserted that “Dapps, apps, wallets, etc. need revenue or they close up shop, and head home.”
Hammering his points home, Montgomery reminded Solana users of their double standards. The content creator highlighted how network participants were willing to provide over $40M to the $WATER memecoin presale, but criticized an 0.8% fee on services offered by one of Solana’s longest-standing products.
“You have probably lost $1000s on the pure rubbish. So don't be a clown and not support the wallets that make it all possible.” - Seb Montgomery
Montgomery also acknowledged that Solana owes much of its success to Phantom. Paying homage to Phantom’s position as Solana’s most widely used wallet, Montgomery asserted “Without Phantom, Solana's success would not have been anywhere near where it got to.”
WHICH WALLET GIVES THE BEST VALUE ON SWAPS?
While traders and users looking for the best rates should always go directly to decentralized exchanges or aggregators, it’s also worth knowing the various in-app swap rates of different wallets.
Fuse Wallet - 0%
Solflare - 0.8%
Phantom - 0.85%
Backpack - 0.85%
It should also be noted that all Solana wallets route their trades through Jupiter. Solana’s leading DEX aggregator typically offers the best rates on trades and allows third-party apps to add fees onto swaps.
Despite some traders expressing frustration, Phantom and other wallet providers have always been transparent and forthcoming about in-app swap fees. Using wallet-based swaps is completely optional and easily bypassed. Trader’s complaints are hardly unresolved.

BTC, there were minimal trading volumes over the weekend and this weekend. Tomorrow is a whole day off in the USA and the volumes may not be large either. Bitcoin is still near the local support zone. Let me remind you that this zone is 57,600-55,900. Bitcoin continues to trade inside the medium-term pattern. And in this case, the key zone and level for reaching the upper limit of this pattern is the level of 60,000 and 64,000. After the breakdown of the pattern, a new round of growth of this cycle will begin.
withdrawal from exchanges exceeds input - 7%, 1,000 btc❗️
Altcoins, the accumulation continues. The market also gives many a chance to enter at an affordable price. But it is more likely that the next month will change the situation. The growth of altcoins in the near term will be significant.

BTC, Bitcoin's local setup is still holding, holding the local support zone. But still, now the main movement is following a medium-term setup, a medium-term pattern. Now the price is just below the middle of this pattern and below 60,000, there has been no consolidation below. The bulls have literally several days to return the level of 60,000 and go above the local resistance zone. Also, the local key zone is 62,000, where there is an open level. Let me remind you that many major players and traders are waiting for September 11th. US inflation data, which can be used to predict a future rate cut on September 18. Two key days in September! There is minimal time left. A market reversal is more than likely to occur during these dates. But don't expect that one candle will reach the highs in one hour! The altseason is 21 years old, the main part of altcoins went to the historical max. 8 months. And a number of other altcoins were moving towards a historical maximum of +-16 months (for example, LUNA). On this squiz, the whales actively bought Bitcoins and took them off the exchanges while the paper snot whined and sold their bitcoins.
the withdrawal from the exchanges exceeds the input - 40%, 17,000 btc
Altcoins, the month of September will be key, an additional set of altcoins will be closer to September 11th. It is on the dogosrok-the average day. The turnaround will be fast and many will bite their elbows. But there is still time and perhaps one of the last chances. Let me remind you that we are at the beginning of a new cycle!

BTC came out of the local flat of 58,000-62,700, but there was no consolidation higher on the daily timeframe if you look at the candles after the breakdown candle. We see that there are 2 candlesticks of uncertainty. It is understood that they were on the weekend, and recently there have been small volumes on weekends. Also, the level of 62,700 remained open. There was also no re-test of the flat breakdown. If we do not see further growth today, it is more likely that the 62,700 level will be re-tested. Which is very logical. Let me also remind you that the main growth will begin after the breakdown of the pattern and the resistance zone of 70,000-73,000.

Altcoins, since the squiz on August 5th, many altcoins have grown significantly. Some gave more than two x's. But still, these are only local movements, the main growth will begin after the breakdown of the descending lines on the capitalization of altcoins and the breakdown of the resistance level for Bitcoin. On September 11, there will be data on US inflation, after which it will be safe to say that the rate will be lowered on September 18.

💶 Coinbase will allow fee-free conversion of euros into EURC stablecoins starting August 28.
As a reminder, the EURC complies with the new MiCA regulation deployed in the European Union 🇪🇺

BTC, a fix above 60,000 did not come out. But this is only a local movement, let me remind you that Bitcoin is inside the pattern, and the main growth will go only after its breakdown. Bitcoin withdrawal per day was sufficient in % ratio based on volumes. The market is waiting for Friday, the speech of the head of the US Federal Reserve.
We read the local setup in the post above. Still relevant.
the withdrawal from the exchanges exceeds the input - 23%, 3,500 btc
Altcoins, approaching the 1st significant downward trend in altcoin capitalization. A breakdown and a break above each trend will give an impulse to altcoins. If you look at the last significant correction, which was in early August. Many altcoins have grown, for example, FTM, which we bought on the drain, cost 0.2611, now 0.4000 - The difference is significant. There is no endless correction, let me remind you that for many altcoins we are at the beginning of a new cycle!
