Welcome to Thursday Folks. Yes, it's taking 14 years but perception is slowly but surely changing when it come to Crypto Assets as even a former U.S. Treasurer is saying Crypto is a great wealth disruptor; she's talking about Ripple. Bitcoin continues to fight and is slightly back above $30K after dipping 5% in correlation with the broader stock market. There is still considerable upside to be had it will just take time so remain patient.
Ethereum is also under pressure as it struggles to turn positive for the week; Cardano is still up 19% for the week and could get back to $1 after the Vasil Hard Fork. Solana's network bug caused it to fall considerably but it still remains in the top 10. Algo Stablecoins are probably done for good as a result of the Terra USD debacle.
