Less than a third of all trading days in 2025 have resulted in net inflows to ETH ETFs. An even sadder stat: Only 4 of the past 42 trading days have resulted in net inflows to ETH ETFs.

That's it for MSTR's current $21bn ATM offering, $128.7m left in the tank. When announced on October 30, MSTR expected to run this ATM until EOY 2027, but here we are - 6 months later. MSTR earnings are coming up on May 1. Will it include a new giga ATM announcement?

The 60-day deadline of Trump's Strategic Bitcoin Reserve executive order is May 5. Time is near for us to have a good time with our bitcoin, crypto and everything else we're playing with!

Fun fact: The BTCUSDT perp ended its longest-ever sub-neutral funding rate streak last week, which lasted 180 intervals and 60 days. Additional fact: Sub-neutral funding rate regimes rarely happen near market tops.

VolatilityShares' leveraged ETH ETF is tremendously popular and represents a massive part of both the U.S. ETH ETF market and CME's OI. It's dominance in ETH is many magnitudes above its relative significance in BTC markets. BlackRock's ETH ETF has seen net inflows of $1.3bn so

The sustained low funding rate environment is fascinating. Perps trade at a lasting discount to spot, no risk appetite. Annualized 7-d avg funding rates at 3.46%. BTC has never traded this close to ATHs at such low funding rates. FRs are narrowing for each passing month.
