The Ethereum Foundation officially approved the ERC-7621 proposal and merged it into the draft standard

Tokenized fund management protocol Alvara Protocol announced that the Ethereum Foundation officially recognized the ERC-7621 proposal and merged it into a draft standard. The ERC-7621 standard allows the creation of tokenized funds backed by multiple assets on the blockchain. Anyone can deploy a BTS (basket token) containing multiple ERC-20 tokens, which brings unprecedented flexibility to fund management. The key features of BTS include:

1. Transferable BTS tokens and management rights;

2. Fungible liquidity provider tokens (BTS LP), representing the holder’s share in the fund;

3. Flexible portfolio adjustment function, allowing managers to modify token types and weights, supporting automatic or manual rebalancing.

ERC-7621 improves many problems in traditional fund management by increasing transparency and decentralization, simplifying management processes, and increasing accessibility to investment opportunities.

10x Research: After Bitcoin halving, miners may sell $5 billion worth of BTC, which will affect market dynamics in the next 4-6 months

10x Research published an analysis article stating that miners may sell $5 billion worth of BTC after the upcoming Bitcoin halving (expected to occur on April 20).

In the past few months, miners have been accumulating BTC inventory, causing an imbalance between supply and demand and driving up the price of Bitcoin. Research has found that Bitcoin's average increase before each halving is 32%. Altcoins, in particular, may be the first to be affected by this situation.

But the move by miners to sell $5 billion of BTC after the halving could disrupt market dynamics for the next 4-6 months. Just as Bitcoin prices tended to move sideways after the previous halvings, this selling pressure could also lead to a similar market reaction.
