Bitcoin Could Fall to $50K in ‘Correction Mode,’ Says Analyst Bitcoin prices are in retreat again during Asian trading on Monday morning and analysts are predicting more pain ahead as the correction deepens. Bitcoin has fallen back to more than 15% down from its mid-March peak, dropping to a ten-day low of under $62,000 on Monday morning. On April 28, an analyst feed ‘Stockmoney Lizards’ noted that the halving was over, but bitcoin continues to print red candles.

Trader made $26m investing in Solana meme tokens During the recent meme coin boom, a trader has reportedly made over $26 million in profits trading tokens on Solana. According to Lookonchain analysts, on Nov. 11, 2023, paulo.sol noticed the increase in the price of Bonk (BONK) and invested in the asset. While engaged in swing trading, the trader earned about $6.28 million from price fluctuations. The user then started buying and trading Dogwifhat (WIF) on Dec. 4, 2023, followed by Jeo Boden (BODEN) in March. Both times were moments when meme coins began to rise sharply. In total, paulo.sol earned a profit of $9.51 million and $7.04 million on the two coins trading at higher prices. Currently, the trader holds positions in BODEN for $7.6 million and in WIF for $5.7 million. On the back of these gains, the trader has continued to add new coins to their collection. The crypto trader also recently purchased 9.3 million in Popcat, valued at $4.9 million, becoming the second-largest holder of the token.

Ethereum liquid restaking drove DeFi TVL to $100B in first quarter Decentralized finance total value locked (TVL) almost doubled in the first three months of this year compared to the previous quarter, partially driven by Ethereum liquid restaking initiatives, according to recent research. DeFi total value locked surged from a Q4 2023 low of $36 billion to peak at almost $97 billion in the first quarter of 2024, according to DefiLlama. Since the beginning of the year, it has increased by 81% to a two-year high of $98 billion last week.

Coinbase seeks interim appeal in SEC case over crypto classification 😱 Coinbase has filed a motion in federal court seeking permission to pursue an interlocutory appeal regarding a recent ruling concerning investment contracts. The crypto exchange’s appeal focuses on whether a digital asset transaction, which does not involve any obligations to the original issuer of the asset, should be considered an investment contract regulated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In March, Judge Katherine Failla denied Coinbase’s motion to dismiss the SEC’s case against it. In her decision, she referenced an opinion from a judgment involving the defunct crypto company Terra, suggesting that certain digital assets could be deemed investment contracts under the Howey Test, especially if they are part of a broader ecosystem. The Howey test is a legal standard used to determine whether certain transactions qualify as investment contracts. Coinbase views its application to digital assets as a pivotal legal question, especially given conflicting opinions from different judges. This disagreement, Coinbase argues, meets the criteria for a controlling question of law, a crucial factor in securing an interlocutory appeal. As Fox journalist Eleanor Terrett noted on Friday, April 12, interlocutory appeals are typically challenging to obtain before a final judgment is rendered. The SEC itself faced difficulties when it attempted a similar appeal in the Ripple case last July, disputing Judge Analisa Torres’s ruling on secondary market token sales. However, despite the low likelihood of success for interlocutory appeals like the one Coinbase is filing, they can have significant implications if approved. If the appeals process moves forward, the industry could be closer to potential clarifications from higher courts, including the U.S. Supreme Court.

Anza Network aims to fix Solana congestion “The short version is: significant progress has been made to overcome the current congestion challenges, and we expect to begin releasing fixes next week,” the Solana-focused software development firm confirmed. “In collaboration with other core contributors, we have analyzed the root cause, and evaluated several potential changes.” The latest development comes in the wake of Solana network congestion incidents, marking the second such occurrence within a 48-hour span that has led to transaction delays and failures for Solana users. Anza, on Friday, April 5, blamed the cause of the congestion on a combination of QUIC implementation issues and the behavior of the Agave validator client. Anza engineers, along with other core contributors, are making concerted efforts to diagnose and rectify these bottlenecks. The latest measures are part of a series of improvements that are expected to unfold over the coming months to boost Solana’s network efficiency. The urgency of the issue was underscored by an alarming trend on April 4, when Solana experienced a failure rate of 75% for all non-vote transactions amid a surge in network activity, as per Dune Analytics. The spike was largely attributed to the growing interest in meme coins on the platform. The high failure rate has sparked a debate within the Solana community, with many expressing dissatisfaction over the worsening service quality. Helius CEO Mert Mumtaz, a notable Solana proponent, offered a perspective suggesting that the issue of transaction failures was exacerbated by “bot spam,” rather than an inherent network instability affecting genuine user transactions. Mumtaz’s claim sheds light on the challenges facing Solana, which have been exacerbated by the blockchain’s popularity, especially in the context of meme coin transactions.
