- 08:24HumidiFi Developer: Solana is Completely Reshaping Retail Finance, HumidiFi's Spread Outperforms a Certain ExchangeChainCatcher reported that Ben, a core team member of the dark pool DEX HumidiFi, stated at the Solana Breakpoint conference, "On the path to transforming the world, Solana is already able to clear tens of thousands of transactions per second at nearly zero cost. Anyone around the globe can access it—through new seat licensing and membership tier systems, entering a fully open, permissionless, Wall Street-grade, programmable, and global market." "We have recently built a decentralized trading platform called HumidiFi, which offers tighter spreads than certain exchanges, with average transaction spreads of just a few basis points. But what I really want everyone to realize is: this system is fundamentally reshaping retail finance. Retail investors can now access better spreads than any traditional brokerage platform, with average spreads narrowed down to just a few basis points." Currently, this system already accounts for 60% of all on-chain trading volume—and we are just getting started."
- 08:02Solana Co-founder: Most recent startups with revenues exceeding 100 millions are built on Solana, accelerating ecosystem expansionChainCatcher reported that Solana co-founder Raj Gokal stated at the Solana Breakpoint conference, "Among the 20 companies that recently reached $100 million in revenue, most are from the crypto industry, and the majority of those are built on Solana. This has always been the goal we originally envisioned to achieve. I believe that to accomplish this, it requires the entropy brought by thousands of entrepreneurs—constantly exploring various potential value propositions for utilizing block space. And I feel that Solana now possesses this kind of ecosystem momentum. Events like the 'Colosseum' hackathons are getting larger in scale, with over 1,700 teams participating each time."
- 08:02Analysis: Bear market signals emerge, Bitcoin expected to drop to $76,000According to ChainCatcher, market analyst Roman stated that Bitcoin's current trend has formed a bear flag pattern, with a target price of $76,000, and it could even drop to $50,000. After rebounding from a recent low of around $80,000, Bitcoin's price has fluctuated within an ascending channel but has failed to break through key resistance, indicating a lack of upward momentum in the market. Roman pointed out that since Bitcoin surged 750% from the bear market bottom of $15,600 in 2022, the current bull market may have ended, and he suggests investors prepare for the next bull run. He also noted that technical indicators such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) are sending bearish signals over the long term. On the other hand, trader Luca believes that there is still hope for Bitcoin in the short term, as its price is currently above the bull market support band. If it can successfully hold this support band and rebound, the medium-term outlook may turn bullish again.
