Decentral Lens

The episode commences with a recap of recent market trends, centering on the stabilization of Bitcoin's price, the net inflows versus outflow in the Bitcoin ETF, and spotlighting the early triumphs of firms like BlackRock and Fidelity, alongside Grayscale's influence. It highlights FTX's strategy to compensate its customers fully, albeit without managing an exchange. The segment also points out Google's recent move to permit BTC ETF ad placements and the submission of Hong Kong's inaugural spot Bitcoin ETF application. Furthermore, the SEC's latest postponement of a BlackRock Ethereum ETF and spike in ETH options are discussed.

In the segment on Airdrop season, similarities between Bitcoin and Solana's recent activities are noted, suggesting they might be drawing inspiration from Ethereum's initial tactics. Notable mentions include Uniswap, Blur, and Ethereum Name Service. The recent upgrades to Magic Eden, its wallet features, and the latest Solana airdrop for the Jupiter DeFi token are explored.


The notion of Ordinal Degenerate Mindshare is introduced, highlighted by the recent buzz around RSIC Ordinals and the integration of Runestones and the upcoming Rune Token linked to the Bitcoin halving event slated for April. The conversation shifts to the influence of prestigious auction houses like Christie's and Sotheby's on the NFT collector community as the domain evolves. Lastly, Disco seeks guidance on balancing authenticity with algorithmic visibility.
