Hunter had previously warned that Bitcoin could fall from above $100,000 to $75,000, a call that played out. According to him, the cryptocurrency could potentially fall as low as $50,000.

Solana’s network came within 14% of crashing to a halt early on Wednesday, August 12, after 28.83% of the network’s staked $SOL fell out of consensus. The delinquency that occurred on Teraswitch, and reported by the Marinade Finance staking protocol, would have ended Solana’s 30-month uptime streak. However, the network only got 86% of the way.

As bitcoin $BTC$66,010.81 regains its footing, optimism has returned to the market, and several observers are calling the recent price rise the start of a decisive bull run for valuations well beyond last year’s $126,000 peak. But a look back at trends in bitcoin and Nasdaq valuations, adjusted for the cost of capital represented by the U.S. 10-year yield (US10Y), suggests bull runs may be more measured. (check Today’s signal) Both the $BTC/US10Y and Nasdaq/US10Y ratios have failed to eclipse their 2020-2021 peaks, even though their dollar-denominated prices set new record highs over the past 12 months.
