๐Ÿš€Ethereum ETFs had a total inflow of $107M in the first day of trading, and a volume of $1.1B

Grayscale ETHE led with $39.7 million, followed by Bitwise ETHW with $25.5 million, BlackRock ETHA with $22.5 million, and Fidelity FETH with $15.2 million.

Wintermute estimates Ethereum ETFs could attract up to $4 billion in inflows over the next year, lower than most analysts' predictions of $4.5 billion to $6.5 billion. Citi Bank estimates Ethereum spot ETFs could see net inflows of $4.7 billion to $5.4 billion over six months, about 30%-35% of Bitcoin ETF inflows while JPMorgan are on the more pessimist side, with a prediction of $3B inflow until the end of the year.

The acquisition likely involved around 1,500 BTC bought between $54,000 and $68,000. MARA aims to leverage its balance sheet and capital markets for future operations, reflecting confidence in bitcoin's long-term value.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธThe U.S. government has transferred around $2 billion worth of Bitcoin connected to the Silk Road marketplace in multiple transactions

This Bitcoin was seized during the crackdown on the marketplace's illicit activities.

The movement of these funds has led to speculation about potential auctions or other uses for the seized assets by the government.
๐Ÿ“‰ZKX protocol has announced its discontinuation due to financial difficulties and low user engagement after raising $7.6M total funding

Founded in 2021, ZKX aimed to create a scalable decentralized exchange for perpetual trading. ZKX previously received backing from Huobi, Crypto,com, and the Co-Founder of Polygon.

All markets have been delisted, and users are encouraged to withdraw their funds by the end of August. The protocol's struggles include minimal trading volumes, high operational costs, and declining token value.

๐Ÿ’ชDeFi Remains Strong

What weโ€™re seeing today is an absolute all-around carnage. But thereโ€™s at least something good to note here, and itโ€™s something that can be tested only in times like these:

The DeFi ecosystem stands absolutely unaffected (for now). Weโ€™re seeing dumps in prices, of course, but more importantly, there are no major stablecoin or LST depegs. Letโ€™s hope everything continues on this trend because we all know a DeFi blow-up is the last thing we need right now.

Not only that, but DeFi protocols like AAVE thrive under pressure and activity. As of the last 24 hours, AAVE made a nice $6M worth of revenue.
๐Ÿ’ฐCapula Management, Europeโ€™s fourth-largest hedge fund, bought almost $500 million worth of Bitcoin ETFs
