EIP-1559 went live today, which means that part of the Ethereum transaction fees are getting burned to reduce ETH supply. Here are two good sites to track this:

We are at 1891 ETH burned so far.

We’ve gone from $29k BTC to $46k BTC (+58%) in less than 3 weeks. Think of crypto as having 2 steps forward and 1 step back continuously during a bull cycle. There’s almost always a mini pull back every 4-6 weeks that slightly resets futures funding levels and options interest to healthier levels for longer term spot price increases. So we will likely see a mini pullback at some point the next two weeks. We saw a monthly pullback in Jan, Feb, Mar, and Apr that usually was in the 15-25% range before resuming. If history is a guide, we may see similar pullbacks every 4-6 weeks for Aug-Nov and that this cycle will likely peak around Dec-Feb. I’m expecting BTC $80k+ and ETH $7k+ personally.

https://anchor.fm/coinstack/episodes/On-Chain-Analysis---How-It-Works--Bitcoin--Ethereum-Price-Forecast-With-Mike-Gavela-e167e9p
In this episode we interview Mike Gavela, an on-chain analyst who focuses on Bitcoin and Ethereum. We explain what on-chain analysis is, how on-chain analysis works, how to predict short and medium-term price movements using on-chain analysis, and the best tools in the space like Glassnode, TokenTerminal, and Dune Analytics.
We also discuss our market forecast for where the price of Bitcoin and Ethereum will reach in the current cycle. Mike is confident we will pass $100k BTC and $5k ETH in this cycle based on the on-chain data, market cycle lengthening, and the amount of capital coming into the space.

Over 50% of BTC addresses are in profit, while 70% of ETH addresses are also in profit, which explains the hockey stick movement we see right now with Realized Cap on both assets.
The dip we had in May cut out all the leverage and weak hands in the market. Smart money and long-term holders who bought the $30k dip are fueling this rally by realizing profits and accumulating more coins at the $40k price level creating a new floor price, as mentioned in the previous issue.

Arbitrum - an Ethereum scaling solution - has launched and announced raising $120M in new funding...
Here's some detail from the Market Meditations Newsletter...
"Blockchain scalability is a hot topic, with Solana working hard to be an Ethereum killer. But Ethereum has momentum and there’s an important launch very soon for Arbitrum, one of the Layer 2 rollups. Let’s break it down:
To increase the speed of Ethereum and lower transaction costs, a combination of sharding the main Layer 1 network and sending computation off-chain (Layer 2) is being pursued.
There are three major types of Layer 2 scaling: state channels, Plasma and rollups – for connoisseurs of detail, Vitalik Buterin beautifully breaks down the differences here.
Rollups come in two flavours: Optimistic or Zero Knowledge (ZK). The former relies on Fraud Proofs (“Prove I’m Wrong”), whereas the latter relies on Validity Proofs (“Proof I’m Right”).
Arbitrum is an optimistic rollup that launched its beta version on the mainnet in May. Since then it has done an impressive job in attracting dApps, wallets and tools to migrate over in readiness for the official user launch. Check out their portal Arbitrum One.
It can process up to 5000 Transactions Per Second (~ 100x improvement on Ethereum’s 45 TPS), but there will be limits in place during the launch phase.
One thing to note is that optimistic rollups have a 7-day withdrawal period (the interval for fraud claims), but some projects are working on speeding this up with liquidity bridges.
And while Arbitrum itself does not currently have its own token, the same could be said about UniSwap until it airdropped one to every user…
So a Layer 2 solution at scale may be right around the corner and with mass user adoption could have a significant impact on the market and its participants, especially for those projects using the protocol. To learn more about Layer 2 competitors, check out this comprehensive report by Delphi Digital."
