Highlights of the Day

Wall Street Embraces Bitcoin

In a groundbreaking move, BlackRock, a global investment management giant, has expanded its iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) by welcoming five major Wall Street players as authorized participants (APs). This strategic move, bringing in the likes of Goldman Sachs, Citadel, Citigroup, UBS, and ABN AMRO, aims to bolster the fund’s liquidity and accessibility for investors.

What does this Means for Crypto Space?

This development not only underscores Wall Street’s increasing embrace of Bitcoin but also highlights the growing integration of cryptocurrencies into mainstream investment portfolios. As institutional players continue to enter the fray, the landscape of crypto investments is poised for further evolution, promising new opportunities and avenues for investors.

Grayscale Removes $ADA and $ATOM From Its Portfolio

Grayscale, a renowned cryptocurrency asset management firm, has made a strategic decision to remove Cardano and Cosmos from two of its prominent funds. The move comes as both digital currencies have shown relatively weaker performance compared to their counterparts.

Strategic Fund Management

Grayscale’s decision reflects a commitment to staying agile in the ever-evolving cryptocurrency landscape, ensuring that its offerings remain in line with market dynamics and investor preferences. As the crypto market continues to mature, such strategic maneuvers will likely play a crucial role in navigating fluctuations and maximizing returns for investors.

Tensor Foundation Set to Launch $TNSR

The crypto community is abuzz with anticipation as the Tensor Foundation gears up for the launch of its much-awaited governance token, $TNSR. As the driving force behind the NFT marketplace, Tensor Foundation has been building momentum with a year-long buildup and several seasons of a user loyalty program. The launch of $TNSR marks a significant milestone for the platform, promising to usher in a new era of community governance and participation.

Tensor x Coinbase

To add fuel to the fire, Coinbase‘s announcement of its intention to list the $TNSR token has only heightened excitement. While details about the listing timeline are yet to be revealed, speculation is rife that Coinbase may serve as the launch partner, potentially enabling immediate trading of the token upon its release.

Project of the Day

NEAR Protocol  

NEAR Protocol ($NEAR) continues to solidify its position as a leading layer-one blockchain, offering a solution to longstanding challenges faced by competing platforms. Designed as a community-driven cloud computing platform, NEAR Protocol addresses issues such as low transaction speeds, limited throughput, and interoperability constraints, providing an optimal environment for decentralized applications (DApps).

In terms of price movements, $NEAR has shown remarkable strength, boasting a current market cap exceeding $7.6 billion and a price surpassing $7.2. Chart analysis indicates significant strides, with the price breaching critical resistance levels, notably achieving the recent milestone of $7. While the market appears to maintain a sideways trajectory, investors eagerly await a retest to validate this upward trend. Another thing to note is that there is a strong emphasis on market sentiment, as a minor squeeze presents a risk of sudden price fluctuations. 

Crazy Day in Crypto

  • Opensea has recently extended its support to Blast Layer 2, enabling Blast NFTs to be accessible on the NFT marketplace.
  • According to reports from Phantom, transactions on the Solana network are failing due to significant congestion.

Crypto World Celebrations

  • Today marks the celebration of Satoshi Nakamoto’s birthday, the creator of Bitcoin, who is believed to be turning 48 based on the birth date registered with The P2P Foundation.
  • Uniswap has achieved a milestone by surpassing $2 trillion in total protocol volume, surpassing the entire GDP of Australia.

Business Talks & Political Insights

  • JP Morgan has put forth the notion that there is a 50% likelihood that SEC will be granting approval for a Spot Ethereum ETF by May.
  • FTX’s bankruptcy administrators have sold about two-thirds of a $2.6 billion stash of Solana tokens at a discounted rate of $64 each, attracting major players like Galaxy Trading and Pantera Capital.
