Crypto artist Beeple (Mike Winkelmann) said in a recent interview: "At present, NFT speculators have left, leaving only some core enthusiasts who 'understand the technology'. Looking back on that era, I think it's crazy because NFT has been hated for much longer than it has been loved. We lost a lot of users, but those people were never for art, I could see it at a glance. Speculators have moved on, but people are still passionate about this kind of thing."

When asked in an interview with Bloomberg whether she was still confident that Bitcoin would reach its $1 million target, Cathie Wood, CEO of Ark Invest, said: “Yes, the greater the uncertainty and volatility in the global economy, the stronger our confidence in Bitcoin.

According to Lookonchain, Michael Bouhanna, vice president of Sotheby's, had previously bought many kinds of Meme coins but made almost no money. Therefore, he used his own wallet "5W7U...b3cV" to launch a Meme coin called BAN, and made more than $1 million in profit on BAN using only one internal wallet. Michael Bouhanna once publicly commented that the "5W7U...b3cV" wallet was his address (the post has been deleted by him), and the address was also the deployer of BAN. Although he was forced to destroy 37.36 million BAN in his wallet, he used the internal wallet to buy BAN and made more than $1 million in profit.

In response to the community question "Why doesn't the Ethereum Foundation stake all ETH like the Nobel Prize Foundation and only use the proceeds to cover the costs? Why do you insist on selling ETH regularly without considering market sentiment and everyone's voice? You have always claimed that Ethereum's POS is safe, why don't you stake ETH yourself? Do you lack confidence in POS?" Vitalik responded: One of the internal reasons is that the team does not want to be forced to make an "official choice" in the event of a controversial hard fork. An interesting idea currently being considered is to provide some subsidies in the form of "You can stake our ETH, you can choose how to stake, as long as it is ethical and maintains upside." Another way to solve this problem is to spread legitimacy and resources to a wider range of places so that people will think that multiple organizations can reliably represent Ethereum. In this regard, we are in a much better situation than we were two years ago.
