Now, while Ethereum’s price might be sulking in the corner like a teenager denied dessert, its supply dynamics are sending out signals that could make a Morse code operator proud. According to Leon Waidmann, a market expert who presumably spends his weekends analyzing charts instead of enjoying life, the Ethereum supply is stuck in a persistent negative trend.

And you thought your bank was complicated! 🤡💸

ZKsync’s transactions dropped 90%. Who needs consistency when you can have a 90% freefall? Meanwhile, Ethereum’s base layer somehow gained 25% in active addresses. Maybe it’s the only chain that doesn’t treat users like lab rats. Or maybe it’s just the only one that doesn’t rely on viral games to survive. 🤷‍♂️

The Bureau of Labor Statistics, in its usual flair for drama, announced on a Tuesday morning that a modest 64,000 jobs appeared-more than the 50,000 economists had predicted, probably because no one really understands what the hell is going on either.

U.S.-listed spot XRP exchange-traded funds have crossed a milestone $1 billion in assets after drawing net inflows every trading day since their debut in mid-November – a streak that sets them apart from bitcoin and ether ETFs that saw several sessions of outflows over the same stretch.
