Some giga-brain just farmed a $1.86M profit off a dex leverage protocol bug without taking an L.
- Margin withdrawal doesn’t nuke orders, just raises liq price. So they built a bot on arbitrum to pull just enough funds to force liquid short fills without crashing funding rate.
- Another bot runs cross-exchange arbitrage, yanks funds from arbitrum, slams cex, fills liquid long gaps at max speed to keep the loop tight.
- Once funding stabilizes, mass withdrawals trigger, and eth gets liquidated at peak prices max slippage, max profit.
Literal infinite money glitch. Quant teams wish they had this playbook.

🙃 Trump 1.0 vs. Trump 2.0:
🔼 The S&P 500 was up 5% at this point during Trump’s first term.
🔽 In contrast, it is now down 7% since Trump took office for the second time.
A start that goes against everyone's expectations...

Elon Musk just started following pro-Bitcoin Senator Cynthia Lummis.
Looks like he’s assembling the Crypto Avengers or just keeping tabs on who’s rocking the laser eyes these days. 🚀😂

CME GROUP TO LAUNCH SOLANA (SOL) FUTURES ON MARCH 17
BlackRock adds its own Bitcoin ETF into its $150 billion model-portfolio universe.
The SEC has received Grayscale’s proposal to allow staking in its Spot Ethereum ETF.
This means the clock has started ticking typically, the SEC has up to 240 days to make a decision on a new ETF application. But since this is an update to an already approved ETF, the process could move a lot faster.

CEO Alphractal: Bullrun Is Still in Early Stages, Retail Hasn’t Returned Yet 👀
Joao Wedson, CEO of Alphractal, believes the current bull cycle is just beginning, as data suggests retail interest hasn’t returned to previous bullrun levels.
📌 Signs That Retail Hasn’t Entered Yet:
• Wikipedia searches for crypto remain low compared to 2017 & 2021.
• Activity on 4Chan once a hotspot during bull runs has dropped significantly.
• New token launches are rising, but this may be driven by large funds rather than retail.
• On-chain trading volume is still relatively low.
❔ So When Will Retail FOMO In?
Wedson suggests that if history repeats, retail will only flood in once Bitcoin breaks its all-time high. At that point, “get rich with crypto” headlines will spread, triggering real FOMO.
Feeling down? Looks like some whales just injected fresh hopium again 😁

TRUMP, MELANIA, CAR, LIBRA: USA, Central Africa, Argentina. Who’s next? 🫣
The question is: Is this just a temporary phase of the market, or an upgraded version of a “rug pull,” with presidents as the players?

Tether joins forces with U.S. lawmakers to establish a regulatory framework for stablecoins.
The Ethereum Foundation (EF) just made a strategic move by injecting nearly $120 million worth of ETH into DeFi protocols instead of selling it off like before.
Specifically:
• 10,000 ETH into Spark
• 10,000 ETH into Aave Prime
• 20,800 ETH into Aave Core
• 4,200 ETH into Compound
By doing this, EF can leverage its assets to generate returns, sustaining its operations without having to sell ETH on the market.
Earlier in January, EF faced pressure to restructure after controversy over its treasury asset sales to fund operations.
Based on EF's 2024 budget report, Aave's founder also shared proposals on "How can the Ethereum Foundation (EF) become more sustainable?"
It remains unclear how this move will impact the market, but one thing is certain EF is making changes.

🤑 How Much Was Kanye West Offered to Promote a Scam Meme Coin?
Kanye West just revealed that someone offered him $2 million just to pretend he was hacked, helping pump the price of a scam meme coin on Solana.
⚠️ Specifically, the team behind the YE meme coin wanted Ye to post a promotional ad on social media for $750,000. Then, they would pay him an additional $1.25 million if he later claimed his account was hacked, deleted the post, and denied any involvement. The only condition? The post had to stay up for at least 8 hours before disappearing.
