The Daily Spin. Wacky Wednesday Edition. ETH gas fees hit ATH, $32bn in a week largely driven by L2 fees gained from Arbitrum and Optimism. The L2s flipped ETH a while ago now, but is ETH flipping BTC in the cards?

Monex is still interested to buy FTX Japan. Sushi Swap announces its DEX aggregation tool to be launched in Q1. Solflare Wallet introduces priority fees for the Solana network.

In the name of transparent, dissemination of information to keep you curious, inspired, and clinically sane…
