📉🤔 #BTC has dropped 60%+ during every mid-term election year. In 2026, Bitcoin is down 33%, which means there's one big leg down left before the bottom.
📊 Cambridge University’s Centre for Alternative Finance, based on 11 years of data, indicates that even if 72% to 92% of global submarine communication cables were to fail simultaneously, the Bitcoin network would not face widespread node disconnections. However, targeted attacks on critical infrastructure affecting just 5% of routing capacity could significantly impact the network. link

📊 New Metric Launch: Options Max Pain (Time Series)
Max Pain is the strike price at which the total value of expiring options (calls + puts) is minimized, theoretically maximizing losses for option holders.
Glassnode now tracks this across maturity buckets (1W, 1M, 3M, 6M, aggregated) at 10-min, hourly, and daily resolution.

📊 A new 11-year study analyzing Bitcoin’s resilience to submarine cable failures finds the network remains highly robust even when critical internet infrastructure is disrupted.
Using data from 2014 to 2025 and 68 verified cable fault events, researchers found that random cable failures would require roughly 72% to 92% of inter-country connections to fail before causing major node disconnection.
Targeted attacks are more effective but still require 5% to 20% of key connections to be disrupted. The study also found that Tor usage increases Bitcoin’s resilience because relay bandwidth is concentrated in well-connected regions.
Empirical results show that 87% of historical cable faults caused less than 5% node impact. link

📊 According to data from Artemis, deposits across major crypto lending protocols have declined from $125 billion to $79.6 billion since October 2025, a drop of about 36%.
Most of the decline came from a few protocols, including Aave (−$27.6B), Spark Protocol (−$5.4B), Euler Finance (−$2.6B), Fluid Protocol (−$2.4B), and Compound (−$2.0B), accounting for roughly $40B of the $45B total decline. link

🤝 Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin emphasized the need to keep the ecosystem open to revisiting the separation between beacon and execution clients. He pointed out that managing two daemons complicates the experience for users operating their own nodes. In the short term, standardized wrappers, such as Docker-based tools, could ease client deployment, while Ethereum may reassess its architecture as the “Lean Ethereum” consensus evolves. link
