Crypto Market Trends: DeFi Drives Daily Ethereum Transactions to All-Time High As Big Bitcoin Buyers Face Off

This Week’s Highlights

● MicroStrategy and Grayscale Chase Bitcoin Gains
● DeFi Drives Daily Ethereum Transactions to All-time High

MicroStrategy and Grayscale Chase Bitcoin Gains

Two of the biggest Bitcoin buyers are facing off on Twitter. MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor tweeted on Tuesday that his firm has completed its purchase of a whopping 21,454 BTC, or 0.1% of the total supply.

This prompted another big buyer – Barry Silbert, founder and CEO of Grayscale – to joke of a “buying race” between the two firms. Investment fund Grayscale, however, has had a significant head start. In April, the firm had already accumulated more than 1.7% of the total supply of BTC, and was later said to be buying an average of 1,190 BTC per day.

DeFi Drives Daily Ethereum Transactions to All-time High

Ethereum has recorded the highest number of daily transactions ever, according to data from Etherscan. This is driven by the newfound popularity of decentralized finance, with the amount of value locked in DeFi apps now hitting all-time highs on the approach to $10 billion.

Meanwhile, competitor NEO continues its multi-week winning streak. The “Chinese Ethereum” is showing double-digit percentage gains as traders anticipate the launch of multi-chain yield farming app Flamincome. This is released today, and will allow crypto traders to simultaneously farm yield across NEO and Ethereum.

The Week Ahead

In the coming week, market volatility could be sparked by rising tensions between China and its neighbors Taiwan and Indonesia. These territorial grievances are coming to the surface just as the US ups the ante in its own battle over tech industry regulation.

On Friday, traders will be braced for the expiry of a big batch of Bitcoin options contracts. Data from Skew shows the number of open contracts is almost at an all-time high, and around half of them are due to expire on Friday. This could spark a sudden move as a large number of traders reposition themselves.
