Volume like that during a panic is mostly arb and toxic flow, so the fees were real but the LPs probably ate the move on inventory too. Pull the pool's fee growth for that day, a 1% tier doing 6x volume while ETH was swinging usually means the range got run clean through and the LPs ended up holding the heavy side.

AI Overview Yes, the Ult / Ultra Wallet app and associated crypto/trading schemes are widely flagged by users and online communities as part of scam or high-risk operations. Key Red Flags Associated with Ult Apps: • Blocked or Frozen Withdrawals: Numerous user reviews and reports describe accounts where funds become trapped, and withdrawing money is blocked. • Advance Fee & Tax Demands: Scammers use a classic tactic where customer support or fake agents demand successive "verification fees," "processing fees," or "taxes" before supposedly releasing funds—no legitimate financial platform forces you to pay out-of-pocket fees to withdraw your own money. • Grooming and Fake Relationships: Many victims report being lured in via online relationships, social media, or signal providers who direct them to download decentralized or custom apps showing fake, inflated profits. • Unhelpful or Defensive Support: Support channels typically blame the user, demand more money for gas/network fees (like ETH), or tell victims to contact local law enforcement once funds are gone.

What is this ? The grocery store? Demand does not affect the inflation rate of Ethereum u donkey. Demand can chg the price per eth but what does that have to do with inflation rates? Rofl ETH Inflation Rate (%) = ((ETH Issued - ETH Burned) / Starting ETH Supply) \* 100

It's getting ready to do something. ETH has already broke and has a slide going, down. https://preview.redd.it/i5ews53p33zh1.png?width=1560&format=png&auto=webp&s=59d60bb9816cc590ca9e02706f5e1ef4727701e2

How do I convert BETH back to ETH? I think I left it in a staking pool a while back but I'm not 100% sure. Any advice is appreciated

Good recap. The way I'd frame it: 6780 didn't make "same address, different bytecode" impossible, it just moved where you have to look 🧐 The classic metamorphic trick (CREATE2 with initcode that pulls runtime bytecode from somewhere else, then selfdestruct and redeploy) is basically dead for anything that survived past its creation transaction, because SELFDESTRUCT now only sends the ETH and leaves the bytecode and storage in place. The only case where it still fully wipes is create-and-destroy in the same tx, and in that case nobody ever had a chance to audit the thing anyway. What's left that can change behind a fixed address: - Upgradeable proxies. Totally legit and everywhere, but auditing the implementation tells you nothing about the next one. Who holds the upgrade key and whether there's a timelock matters more than the audit date. - 7702 delegations. The account can re-sign a new authorization and point at a different implementation whenever it wants, so "the bytecode at this address" is a snapshot, not a guarantee. - Governance that can swap modules or execute arbitrary calls, which is really what the Tornado attacker abused: the proposal looked fine, the logic behind it changed before execution. So the modern version of "check Etherscan" is less about spotting selfdestruct and more about asking who can change what, and how much warning you get before they do 👀

And 90% has already been replenished (from Binance): "Since our last update, the covered amount has risen from approximately 80% to 90%. All BTC, ETH, USDT, BNB, SOL, USDC, XRP, USD1, RLUSD and ZEC are fully backed at 100%. We'll keep purchasing the remaining assets through market and OTC channels until the covered amount reaches 100% for all tokens."

this is dumb AI, swapping to USDC and USDT is how they lost billions already. The paths they want to go are to BTC, ETH and XMR. These are chains that will be around forever they have bridges and methods of converting between them using decentralized protocols.

Incorrect, assets were quickly swapped to BTC and ETH.

Fair question. This was a crypto backtest across BTC, ETH and SOL, not CME futures. The $7.1k is the total modeled fees across 979 trades, not a fee on a single position. The strategy also generated a lot of turnover. That said, I still need to verify the historical exchange fee assumptions, so I wouldn't claim those costs perfectly reflect live execution. That's one of the limitations of this test.

> But laundered USDT, USDC, XRP can be traced and frozen. Yeah, they're just immediate "liquid" cash. > Converting them to XMR would have made them untraceable and unfreezable. There's simply isn't that kind of demand for USDT, the market is too shallow. It was even shallow on USD->ETH route, and the lending protocols have substantially deeper market (they swapped around 100M worth within, with substantial (~10%) but still reaonsable slippage. This isn't really something XMR could absorb (even ETH defi market barely can).

Proof: [https://imgur.com/a/oCsCulg](https://imgur.com/a/oCsCulg) (P-1) 20 oz Silver Bar - Scottsdale Mint Imperium - XX .999 Silver Bullion Bar #A707 **$1,020 shipped.** Price is firm. Payment methods: * USD: venmo, PayPal, Cash APP. No note. * Cryptos: USDC on ETH network, BTC on BTC network (3% surcharge), ETH on ETH network (3% surcharge). Ship to all 50 states, US Territories, and Military Bases. Almost all my shipping labels each carry $100 complimentary insurance. Additional insurance coverage is available at the buyer's expense. Packaging will be done in a way that protects not only the metals, but also their containers. I have an industry-leading standard of padding, filling, packaging, and taping for every shipment. Once the carrier takes possession of the package directly from my hands, my liability ends. But I will do my best to help with investigation, and insurance claim filing on behalf of the buyer, in the rare case of package loss, package damage, or content leakage. \------------------- All metals are sourced from trustworthy sellers and have passed my rigorous authentication through several steps in the following order whenever appropriate: 1. Weight test 2. Magnet test 3. Ice test 4. Ping test passed by iphone APP StackerTools. * This is an overly rigorous test which sometimes fails a legitimate piece of silver in an odd shape or heavy toning. 5. And/or the test of Sigma Metalytics Precious Metal Verifier PMV PRO with Refiners Wand, Small Wand, Large Wand and Bridge (Model #2701): * This device tests the resistivity and density of metals. It cannot tell you what a piece of metal is. It can only tries to tell you if that piece fits what you think it is. You have to have a rough idea what the piece can be. * It is one of the best ways to test authenticity in general, but it cannot replace other kinds of testing, and is not always the right/best way of testing (NOT infallible, and limited in the testable range of metals): * In rare cases, a fake piece of metal can have similar resistivity and density of a real piece thus fooling Sigma. * A genuine metal piece may fail Sigma test because of its extreme size, lack of flat surface, toning, and other interferences such as assay card with authentication technology. For example, a genuine PAMP 1 gram Fortuna Gold Bar fails the test of Sigma PMV Pro with all accessories due to its extremely small size and the interference of its Veriscan Assay Card. * This device cannot test silver with a purity lower than 83.3%. For example, 40% silver Kennedy Half Dollar cannot be tested by Sigma, but can be tested by ping test through StackerTools. * Thus, my multi-step hybrid authenticity test is superior than only using Sigma, and is the best practice given my resources. There are other even more expensive tests - XRF can outright tell you the exact metal composition of the surface of a piece of object, which Sigma cannot do. But the penetration of XRF is shallower than that of Sigma.

Let's kewp some nuance. There is a reason they trade(d) most into BTC and ETH. 0% chance of any of those being freezed. 100% freeze for most stables and other stuff somewhere in between there.

Crypto is ass because in a market where virtually every other asset is growing impressively bitcoin is down over 10% YTD and ETH is down over 20% YTD.

the budget day BS along with the Quantum BS are a fantastic wall of worry. A Big Beautiful Wall that will propel BTC to $1M, and drag ETH along for the ride.

OK I get it now. ETH and BTC are freezable on exchanges, but I guess North Korea wouldn't use exchanges. They would just transfer the stolen BTC and ETH to private wallets and dare anyone to come get it via invasion.

Not really. It is very likely both are in effect by the end of 2027. More interestingly Ethlabs has been pushing for some insurance there in the form of FCR (fast confirmation) and faster slots (or quick slots as they call It) both acting as a magnet towards "free use road entry to fast inclusion" which in turn reduces the premium large stakers could gain offchain. Both the ePBS+FOCIL side and the Quick Slots +FCR side are a sort of EF+Ethlabs tag team to make Ethereum sticky for TradFi. You can maybe then, after you establish a sticky service, discuss more radical gas repricing, which violently reprices ETH too.

A fascinating research paper published just last week caught my attention. Two mathematicians at Cardiff found that **weekend crypto volatility predicts Monday volatility in the S&P 500 (!!!)**. And it holds up after controlling for Friday's VIX, and it gets even stronger when Friday's VIX is already high. We can ignore crypto as an investment, but still it seems to know something about Monday. They tracked BTC, ETH and, yes, XRP weekends back to 2017, and since 2024 it shows up in EVERY pair they tested, across stocks, gold and Treasuries. What surprised me most is that Friday's crypto volatility predicts nothing, so the signal really comes from the hours when stocks can't trade. https://preview.redd.it/a09jxwxv61zh1.png?width=2160&format=png&auto=webp&s=3e16b8ef9695f4d52c60ef6461d737c0f7b96535 As someone who sells premium for a living, I keep thinking about two Mondays that open at the same IV after very different crypto weekends. Am I selling the same premium against two different risks? It's only 116 Mondays and the paper never touches option prices. They even wonder whether the effect gets arbitraged away once people notice, and, well, people are about to notice. I'm testing it myself for you now and will post what I find here. Has anyone here compared weekend crypto with Monday implied vs realized? Or is this already priced in and I'm late to the party? Paper: [https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.35702](https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.35702)

Yeah great point. In fact the article shows that they had to pay several hundred dollars more than market price for each ETH.

Revolut declined my deposit of 3.9 ETH, and are now holding on to it saying they have technical issues that affect returning it, waited a week now

>**Charts may tell the signs,** >**Long haul on all the airlines,** >**Immigration lines.** ~Daily haiku until we’re at least at 0.178 on the ETH/BTC ratio or highest market cap

Can still borrow manually, just have to do the extra click. The auto part seems dead for a bunch of pairs, happened to me on a few alts last week, worked fine on BTC and ETH though. Guessing they're tweaking risk settings again.

There Are quantum Secure Algorithms - some projects already use them, path is to migrate the existing projects (See BIP360/361 for BTC, ETH quantum roadmap), my worry is that some of the projects are not fast enough. Quantum is currently speeding up on all sides - algorithms, Hardware & design (I just found ecdsa.fail a few months ago & really freaky how this moved since then)

ETH isn't freezable. Also when you live in a country that doesn't give a shit, they do t need to care about the traceability. The people doing this are backed by the law in their country.
