☠️ Market Apathy

Bitcoin Volatility Hits Historic Lows Amid Market Apathy
By Dylan LeClair and Sam Rule

Bitcoin's price volatility has hit historic lows amid a lack of market interest.

Volume has been in steady decline since September and November 2021, when it peaked, and liquidity has also decreased following the collapse of FTX and Alameda.

On-chain data shows that the number of active addresses has remained stagnant over the past few months and has not outpaced the existing trend as it has done during previous bull market conditions.

Bitcoin Can Be Super Collateral If Lenders Understand Its Value
By Max Keidun

CEO of peer-to-peer bitcoin exchange Hodl Hodl, Max Keidun, has written an opinion piece stating that recent issues in the bitcoin lending space, including the Terra/Luna crash, liquidity crunches and accusations of market manipulation, are not the fault of bitcoin itself.

Keidun argues that the problem is with the custodial lending platforms, which are "trusted third parties, owned and managed by private entities," and are therefore "security holes."

He suggests that the industry does not understand how yield is generated, and that bitcoin should be treated as super collateral, due to its liquidity, programmability, scarcity, flexibility, transparency, sovereignty, security, global acceptance, censorship resistance, network effect and decentralized governance.
