‱Spot Bitcoin ETFs face first outflows amid declining hype

The new Bitcoin ETF in Australia closed its first day with approximately $1.3 million in trading volume. Despite the smaller size of the Australian market compared to the American market, this result is quite underwhelming. In contrast, the first crypto spot ETFs in Hong Kong, launched in April, generated $12 million in trading volume on their first day. Even then, this was considered small compared to the billions of dollars in inflows seen in the U.S.. This indicates that ETF trends are not as strong as they once were, with more investors preferring to hold their $BTC in personal wallets or on exchanges rather than with centralized entities.

‱Polkadot’s new proposal to reduce unstacking time to just 2 days

The RFC-0092 proposal for Polkadot $DOT aims to reduce the unstaking period from 28 days to just 2 days. This change is designed to enhance user convenience and competitiveness without compromising security. The primary motivation for this adjustment is that Polkadot currently has one of the longest unstaking periods among all proof-of-stake tokens. Despite offering high APY, many users prefer to stake other cryptocurrencies because, in case of an emergency, it is easier to regain control over their staked coins.
