The Daily Spin. Tomahawk Tuesday Edition. Crank it up! The markets went green yesterday across the board, with many Altcoins posting strong double-digit gains. Bitcoin breaks the $17k level, Cardano sees an increase of 20% in TVL and rallies, as do Solana, Decentraland, Litecoin, and many more. The BTC hashrate jumped 17% to hit a new ATH briefly, and the long-awaited Flare token airdrop was distributed to XRP holders snapshotted back in 2020.
In the competitive landscape, notable rivals Quant (QNT) saw a spike in their token price which hadn’t been seen since 2021. Liquid staking takes the mainstream narrative, ballooning by 40% in TVL and securing Lido’s position at the top of the list. Representing one of the biggest narratives for this year, GALA games rose an incredible 60%. Dogecoin hit a 3-week high.
The senator who backed SBF’s bill to congress has retired, and all of a sudden the markets rally and even Wall Street blesses her departure. Hong Kong however, is set to enforce new crypto regulations in June. Virgin’s satellite launch epicly fails, representing the current mood in the UK for the times; while across the pond, Elon has curtailed global content moderation along with the jobs that were responsible for it. Proponents claim that Bitcoin energy efficiency will improve with more adoption. Scientists break good news about the o-zone layer’s recovery. Biden’s files from his time as VP have been exposed. Lots of content in the TL section and be sure to check out Vitalik’s latest book, now available on Amazon. The new subvariant XBB.1.5. just dropped.
