- • After uncertainty around fork ends, bitcoin's price breaks free and topples multiple milestones. Meanwhile, BTC dominance shrinks to all-time lows.
- • Bitcoin fees increase dramatically. While Coinbase hits #1 app on iTunes, it and all exchanges struggle to cope with demand.
- • $3.23bn for ICOs and $200mn for VC. However, forks were the largest token generating event of the year with $44bn created.
- • CME & Cboe launch with high interest but low volume. Large traders shorted and small traders longed.
- • Sentiment Survey: 81% did not go into debt to buy crypto. Of those that did, 52% already paid it back. 94% check prices at least every day.
- • Key metrics up across public blockchains.
