Today Jason and Sanat breakdown the ETH ETF approval news. They discuss the custody unlocks thanks to the ETF, what price activity might look like as a result of inflows, the implications for Lido, NFT's, and EigenLayer. As well as wider ramifications on L2s and what this could mean for memecoins. The two then discuss the slow down in activity on Ethereum's L1 and much more—enjoy!
