Synthetix’s sUSD stablecoin is teetering, and founder Kain Warwick isn’t pulling any punches. He’s fully prepared to use “the stick” against SNX stakers to force sUSD back to its $1 peg. This situation is very extreme. Can we really afford to say his approach doesn’t matter when a fundamental part...

The numbers don't lie, right? Solana briefly flipped Ethereum in staked value. $53.9 billion to $53.7 billion. Headlines screamed. But before we anoint Solana the staking ruler, let’s slow down. I'm Lee Chia Jian, and I've seen enough booms and busts in the Asian markets to know that chasing high...
Ethereum seems to be going through a major influx of interest and investment, resulting in a breakout price movement. There are at least five interconnected reasons for this rally.
