L2s Are And Not Backed By Ethereum’s Base Layer Security: Solana founder

Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko cast doubt on the decentralization and security of Ethereum’s layer-2 (L2) scaling networks during a heated debate on Sunday. Layer-2 scaling networks feature a huge attack surface and code bases so large that they cannot be properly audited for software bugs. User funds can also be shifted from L2s, which rely on multi-signature custody, without the users’ consent, Yakovenko added. ‘The claim that layer-2s inherit ETH security is erroneous,’ Yakovenko said during the debate. He argued:  “5 years into the L2 roadmap, wormhole ETH on Solana…

The Bitcoin Stock-To-Flow ModelIsn’t the Best BTC Forecast Model: Analyst

Bitcoin’s (BTC) Stock-to-Flow (S2F) model, one of the most widely cited BTC valuation frameworks, forecasts a peak price of $222,000 during this market cycle, but investors should exercise caution when using the model, according to André Dragosch, the European head of research at investment firm Bitwise. The Stock-to-Flow model does not take into account demand-side factors, and instead, centers its price modeling on Bitcoin’s halvings, which reduce the amount of newly issued BTC by half every four years, Dragosch said. He added: “Today, institutional demand via Bitcoin exchange-traded products (ETPs)…
