BTC markets are down over -25% from all-time highs, with major declines directly triggered by flip-flopping on the cryptocurrency from Tesla CEO Elon Musk. Just this morning however, the billionaire hinted on Twitter (https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1394001894809427971?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) that Tesla may have sold its Bitcoin holdings already.
The “Ethereum killer” – Binance Smart Chain has just suffered yet another hack, with a protocol (bEarn) based off of the network losing nearly $11M in the incident. This comes as another hack earlier in May caused losses of over $30M (Spartan Protocol).
NFTs may be here to stay – albeit cheaper, as a collection of nine CryptoPunk NFTs sold for $17M at Christie’s last week. For comparison, a particular CryptoPunk (they are all unique) sold for $7.6M just earlier this year.
