Ethereum pris i USD och ETH-USD prishistorikdiagram

Crypto prices are maintaining a bullish trend in the face of a banking crisis, a concerted effort by the US government to shut down crypto on- and offramps, and a slew of concerning macro signals world wide. We're not here to cheer for other people's misfortune, but can't help notice that for once, crypto is fullfilling its initial design goal: to be a safe haven in times of financial turmoil and erratic government behavior. 🏴‍☠️

Maybe, this bullish phase isn't the start of the "big one" yet. The bear market is still young compared to past bears. We keep a conservative exposure mainly to $BTC and $ETH, but might punt a few alts later if the trend continues to be strong.

There's a big event upcoming for Ethereum. The Shapella network upgrade expected April 12th will enable withdrawals from the proof of stake layer. While we expect some turbulences and occasional bouts of FUD, Shapella marks another important step towards the completion of Ethereum's switch to proof of stake. With lots of growth on Ethereum's base layer and in scaling solutions like Arbitrum, and with the new deflationary mechanisms built into the proof of stake protocol, Ethereum is well positioned for the next expansion.

🔵 What is layer 1 blockchain ?

A layer 1 blockchain is a blockchain protocol that is considered as the base layer or the foundational layer of a blockchain network and It is responsible for the creation, validation, and propagation of blocks on the blockchain network.

They enable the creation of decentralized applications (dApps) and smart contracts that can run on top of the blockchain network.

Layer 1 blockchains are also known as base layer protocols, as they provide the underlying infrastructure and architecture for other layers or protocols to build on top of them.

They serve as the primary layer for storing and validating data on the blockchain, and any modifications or updates to the blockchain network need to be done at the layer 1 level.

Overall, layer 1 blockchains are essential for creating decentralized networks and applications that are trustless, transparent, and censorship-resistant, which are some of the key features that make blockchain technology so revolutionary.

Some examples of layer 1 blockchain, have their own consensus mechanism, transaction validation rules, and native tokens.:

$BTC It is a decentralized, open-source, and permissionless network that allows for peer-to-peer transactions without the need for intermediaries or third parties.

$ETH it is a blockchain network that was designed to support the creation of decentralized applications (dApps) and smart contracts, which can be executed on the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and It allows developers to create and deploy their own custom tokens and build complex applications on top of the blockchain.

$ADA is a third-generation blockchain network that uses a proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus mechanism to validate transactions and add new blocks to the blockchain and It aims to provide a more sustainable and scalable blockchain infrastructure compared to earlier blockchains.

$DOT is a multi-chain platform that allows for interoperability between different blockchain networks and It uses a sharded architecture to enable parallel processing of transactions and smart contracts.

$SOL is a high-performance blockchain network that is designed to process thousands of transactions per second (TPS) without sacrificing security or decentralization and It uses a unique consensus mechanism called Proof of History (PoH) to enable fast transaction processing.

Started to get flashbacks to the start of the 2017 bullmarket here... HUGE breakout of $BTC now and it looks like $ETH is following.

If history at least rhymes, its just a matter of being patient before ALTS follow, and outperform.

So Bitcoin price is moving higher, as is the $BTC dominance... Other Crypto prices are going up, but are still lagging behind Bitcoin.

CARUS-AR does not hold any BTC, so for now we are underperforming, and this is a bit frustrating.

The strategy is focused on ALTS, $ETH DeFi and L1 projects like $ATOM and $NEAR outperforming at a later phase should markets turn bullish. Looking at the past bull markets in crypto the chance of this should be high.

It is possible of course that 'this time it is different' and the only true winner in crypto is BTC, I doubt this very much. No risk no reward...
