In this week’s livestream, we discuss market momentum with ETH nearing $4K, and notable BTC–gaming stock correlations. We also dive into Pendle’s launch of Boros, and what it brings to the market. Finally, we examine digital asset treasury companies, IPO/ICO trends, tokenized pre-IPO trading, and Coinbase’s DEX trading rollout.
