- Crypto market cap is down 16.5% from its 2024 peak, thanks to the Fed's inflation-curbing magic.

- Ether’s price vs. Bitcoin (BTC) dropped 10% in two months. Ouch!

- Ethereum’s total value locked (TVL) is stuck at 17.8 million ETH, and gas fees are still high.

- Solana (SOL) is stealing the DEX show with a 29.6% market share, beating Ethereum’s 28.1%.
