How is Andreessen Horowitz's crypto arm looking at the world? We sit down with Eddy Lazzarin and Daren Matsuoka to explore the current landscape of crypto and its future.
From all-time high active addresses to the rise of mobile wallet use in developing countries, we discuss the signals for adoption and the massive opportunity for startups. We also dive into the political impact of crypto in 2024, stablecoins’ role in reshaping the U.S. Dollar, the Ethereum fee economy, and whether Crypto x AI is the next wave of innovation.
Don't miss this forward-looking conversation on the state of the crypto industry and what to expect in 2024.

Over the past four months, we’ve rated a series of Solana ecosystem altcoins in our Token Hub product, with a healthy chunk of them receiving bullish ratings.
These include Kamino (KMNO), Drift (DRIFT), Sanctum (CLOUD), and Jito (JTO). While most have netted significant gains, as high as 111% in the case of Kamino, we still believe they have room to run.
With the market turning increasingly positive, it's time to revisit each of these tokens to dig into their bull cases and examine what forces may support them going forward.

2️⃣ Permissionless III Wraps
The Permissionless III conference ran from Wednesday to Friday this week, featuring panels and keynotes on Crypto x AI, regulation, Ethereum’s future, and consumer apps. Memecoins were front and center to many of these conversations, with many divisively split on whether they hold lessons for how to bootstrap users and build products specifically tailored to distinct communities or if they have just devolved crypto into one big casino.

3️⃣ Market Makers Face Fraud Charges
U.S. prosecutors charged Gotbit, ZM Quant, CLS Global, and MyTrade with market manipulation and wash trading. The sting started with the FBI launching a fake token on Ethereum, which they then had the funds market make and trade for. Over $25M in crypto has been seized, and four defendants have agreed to plead guilty.

The Unichain has arrived and could soon become crypto's go-to liquidity hub.
Crypto enthusiasts have long speculated about the role application-specific L2s can play in the battle to scale Ethereum while maintaining decentralization, and with today’s unveiling of the Unichain, it's finally time to test how a general-purpose application performs inside of an isolated execution environment.

Last month, a U.S. judge ruled that "control of funds was not necessary" for money transmitter laws to apply to Tornado Cash developer Roman Storm. This decision has sent shockwaves through the crypto world, raising an urgent question: Did this ruling just make DeFi development illegal by default?
Crypto lawyer Jake Chervinsky is here to help us unpack what this all means. Jake, who serves as Chief Legal Officer at Variant Fund and sits on the board of the DeFi Education Fund, has called the Tornado Cash cases some of the most important legal battles in crypto history.

Bittensor (TAO) has captured the attention of investors, and it's easy to understand why. The narrative surrounding AI is both simple and powerful, and in this current crypto cycle, few categories are hotter than AI x Crypto. As one of the most prominent projects in this space, Bittensor is positioning itself as the project to watch.
At its core, Bittensor is pushing a new frontier: creating a decentralized network where AI models can be trained and shared in a way that aligns incentives for both developers and users.

Last month, Coinbase made waves by launching Coinbase Wrapped Bitcoin (cbBTC).
When Coinbase users send BTC to an Ethereum or Base address, it’s automatically wrapped into cbBTC at a 1:1 ratio. This approach lets people readily engage with DeFi apps in the Ethereum ecosystem using their Bitcoin holdings without selling them.

Blur has had a rough 2024. The exchange saw gains and losses from its close association with the Blast L2, and the NFT market hasn't exactly been killing it lately either. But this has been a big month for BLUR's token, up a whopping 44% during a period where ETH has stayed flat.
In our latest update to Bankless Guides, we've shipped a new version of our Blur primer, capturing its activity, functionality, and future prospects.
