The table shows tokens held by DAO treasuries. $ETH remains the most widely held asset across DAOs: 376 treasuries hold it, maybe because it anchors everything. $USDC follows close, the stablecoin of choice for operational liquidity, held by 276 orgs. $POL and $SAFE are quietly becoming staples of infrastructure-heavy DAOs, while $OP, $UNI, and $ARB stack billions in value but live in far fewer hands. $GRT, $AAVE, and $ENS round out the list.

By James Van Straten (All times ET unless indicated otherwise) Bitcoin (BTC) remains stuck near the $95,000 mark, apparently unfazed by the Canadian election result, which saw the crypto-friendly candidate for prime minister lose his seat. Key macroeconomic data due later this week could serve as a catalyst for bitcoin’s next move, with the standout being Friday’s non-farm payrolls report. In the meantime, the largest cryptocurrency is reaching a series of higher lows and lower highs, forming a symmetrical triangle consolidation pattern. This setup following a strong uptrend typically implies a continuation. A decisive breakout above $95,500 could spark the next leg higher, while a drop below support would indicate a potential reversal. On the technical front, bitcoin's hashrate, which has surged over recent months and is now about 10% away from its record, is beginning to decelerate. A downward difficulty adjustment of more than 5% is anticipated in four days and will provide some much-needed relief to miners, who have been grappling with hashprice levels near five-year lows. The week's macroeconomic data include personal spending and GDP growth figures on Wednesday, though Friday's jobs report takes center stage. Economists forecast a drop in new jobs to 135,000 during April, down from March’s 228,000 figure, which was the strongest in three months. The unemployment rate is projected to have held steady at 4.2%, underscoring a persistently tight labor market. The CME FedWatch Tool currently indicates a 91% probability of the Fed funds rate being held at at 4.25%–4.50% at the May 7 FOMC meeting. Also in the mix, earnings season is heating up, particularly among the “Magnificent Seven” tech stocks. Microsoft (MSFT) and Meta (META) report after the market close on Wednesday, followed by Apple (AAPL), Amazon (AMZN) and Strategy (MSTR) on Thursday. Stay alert!

The upgrade improved the way validators exchange data, making the process quicker and smoother to reduce delays and speed up transaction processing. It also added a method allowing validators to receive multiple blocks at once, instead of one by one. The time it takes to create a new block is reduced to about 1.5 seconds and could fall to as low as 0.75 seconds. Faster block times mean transactions are confirmed more quickly, making the network feel snappier for users. The update makes decentralized apps (dapps) like games or financial tools run faster and smoother. Developers can keep building apps the same way because the update doesn’t change how the network works with their code. A faster, more efficient network attracts more users and developers, which can increase demand for BNB and make it more valuable over time. Derivatives Positioning Total open interest (OI) across perpetuals, options and futures now stands at $122 billion globally, according to data from Laevitas. SUI has seen a sharp surge in derivatives activity, with its share of global perpetuals volume peaking at 5.06% ($7.12 billion) on April 25. It has since sustained volume dominance above 3.5%, significantly higher than its historical average of under 2%, suggesting renewed speculative appetite driven by recent project announcements. According to Coinalyze, the top OI gainers in the past 24 hours among tokens with market caps over $100 million are: SAFE: +123% RAY: +92% MOCA: +68% Market Movements: BTC is up 0.43% from 4 p.m. ET Monday at $95,009.93 (24hrs: +0.33%) ETH is up 2.81% at $1,838.46 (24hrs: +1.9%) CoinDesk 20 is up 0.85% at 2,792.69 (24hrs: -0.08%) Ether CESR Composite Staking Rate is up 28 bps at 2.975% BTC funding rate is at 0.0005% (0.5749% annualized) on Binance DXY is up 0.27% at 99.28 Gold is down 1.11% at $3,306.08/oz Silver is up 0.41% at $33.28/oz Nikkei 225 closed +0.38% at 35,839.99 Hang Seng closed +0.16% at 22,008.11 FTSE is up 0.16% at 8,430.89 Euro Stoxx 50 is unchanged at 5,168.63 DJIA closed on Monday 0.28% at 40,227.59 S&P 500 closed +0.06% at 5,528.75 Nasdaq closed -0.1% at 17,336.13 S&P/TSX Composite Index closed +0.36% at 24,798.59 S&P 40 Latin America closed +0.74% at 2,549.44 U.S. 10-year Treasury rate is down 6 bps at 4.21% E-mini S&P 500 futures are up 0.14% at 5,561.00 E-mini Nasdaq-100 futures are up 0.15% at 190557.75 E-mini Dow Jones Industrial Average Index futures are up 0.36% at 40,515.00 Bitcoin Stats: BTC Dominance: 64.24 (-0.24%) Ethereum to bitcoin ratio: 0.01928 (1.80%) Hashrate (seven-day moving average): 842 EH/s Hashprice (spot): $48.7 PH/s Total Fees: 6.98 BTC / $651,628 CME Futures Open Interest: 132, 750 BTC BTC priced in gold: 28.6 oz BTC vs gold market cap: 8.10% Technical Analysis Ether (ETH) is showing signs of recovery after reclaiming the value area (defined by the two blue dotted lines), suggesting a return to its high-volume price zone established since the October 2023 rally. The Point of Control (PoC) remains near $2,200, serving as a major magnet for price action and a critical bullish target. ETH is also approaching the 50-day exponential moving average (EMA), a potential inflection point that may spark volatility. The level is particularly notable because many altcoins have beaten ether to reclaim their 50-day EMAs. Importantly, price action has now broken above the descending trendline stemming from the December 2024 high, a key structural shift favoring bullish momentum. Upside targets include: $2,104 to confirm a higher high $2,200 (PoC), volume-weighted focal point $2,480 (200-day EMA), long-term resistance To maintain its bullish bias, ETH must hold above the lower boundary of the value area (~$1,745), or risk a return to bearish sentiment. Crypto Equities Strategy (MSTR): closed Monday at $369.25 (+0.15%), up 0.30% at $370.34 in pre-market Coinbase Global (COIN): closed at $205.27 (-2.08%), up 0.58% at $206.47 Galaxy Digital Holdings (GLXY): closed at $21.21 (2.81%) MARA Holdings (MARA): closed at $14.01 (-2.03%) Riot Platforms (RIOT): closed at $7.63 (-1.8%), up 0.39% at $7.66 Core Scientific (CORZ) closed at $8.24 (-0.84%), up 1.21% at $8.34 CleanSpark (CLSK): closed at $8.57 (-4.88%), up 0.12% at $8.58 CoinShares Valkyrie Bitcoin Miners ETF (WGMI): closed at $14.33 (-1.58%) Semler Scientific (SMLR): closed at $35.37 (-3.99%), up 1.78% at $36.00 Exodus Movement (EXOD): closed at $42.18 (-7.30%), up 1.92% at $42.99 ETF Flows Spot BTC ETFs: Daily net flow: $591.2 million Cumulative net flows: $38.99 billion Total BTC holdings ~ 1.14 million Spot ETH ETFs Daily net flow: $64.1 million Cumulative net flows: $2.48 billion Total ETH holdings ~ 3.40 million Source: Farside Investors Overnight Flows Chart of the Day BTC dominates derivatives, with $32.97B in open interest (OI), over 40% of the total and more than double ETH’s $12.26B. Memecoins like DOGE, TRUMP, PEPE and FARTCOIN each exceed $480M in OI, outperforming many large-cap assets, showing the strength of memecoins within derivatives positioning. ETH + SOL combined ($16.11B) remain fall far short of BTC’s OI, underscoring bitcoin's continued derivatives supremacy.
