Recent capital flows for Ethereum and Bitcoin spot ETFs have shown divergence. During Tuesday, the ETH ETF recorded a net inflow of $130 million, while the BTC ETF attracted $754 million, continuing the sustained interest of institutional investors in Bitcoin.

In the DEX ecosystem, Lighter Perp, a decentralized perpetual trading platform, officially released its iOS and Android mobile applications, providing users with a more convenient on-chain trading experience. This marks the gradual deepening of decentralized derivatives trading into the mobile space.

The stablecoin sector has seen new developments—Pakistani officials have reached a strategic partnership with World Liberty Financial (WLFI) to jointly promote the localized use of the US dollar stablecoin, which is seen as an important signal of traditional financial systems embracing on-chain finance.

In token financing, Zama announced its token sale plan. The current round of funding is based on a $55 million FDV, distributed through two main channels: CoinList and the official auction app, attracting many developers and investment institutions.

ETH-0,6%

BTC-1,04%

WLFI-3,5%

Bitcoin won again, institutions really prefer the big pancake ETH is still being sidelined... Lighter's move is good, mobile is definitely the next step Pakistan collaborating with WLFI? The stablecoin situation is about to change Zama's $55 billion FDV is a bit aggressive, this funding round needs to push forward

It's another BTC inflow moment; institutions are rushing to buy the dip. ETH is a bit cold here, with nearly five times the inflow difference, it's heartbreaking. The Lighter mobile app launched pretty well; finally, you can trade while lying down. Pakistan's move to establish a stablecoin shows that traditional finance is really starting to lower its stance. Zama's funding scale isn't small, with a $55 million FDV. Whether this round can succeed depends on how things develop later.

Bitcoin is winning again, institutions are definitely focused on this, the gap with Ethereum is a bit uncertain. Is the DEX mobile version rolling out? Finally, it was about time. The localization of stablecoins is really starting to see some traditional financial institutions compromise. Zama's latest funding round is interesting, the FDV price is acceptable. Another token is about to launch, is your wallet ready? The lighter mobile version is out, I need to try this experience and see how it feels. Institutional funds love Bitcoin, when will ETH see another big influx? This round of stablecoin operations seems like laying the groundwork, looks good in the long run. CoinList's project quality has been inconsistent over the past two years, how Zama performs later will tell. Bitcoin's ability to attract funds is truly incredible, why is Ethereum still just playing a minor role? The DEX ecosystem is moving, but how many people are really using it on mobile... Pakistan is working on stablecoins, another new market, interesting. These funding numbers look good, but once it hits the secondary market, it might be a different story.

BTC this wave of gains, ETH is drinking soup, the gap is still widening... --- Lighter Perp launches on mobile, truly making on-chain transactions ubiquitous --- Pakistan is developing a stablecoin? Traditional finance must be really panicking now haha --- Zama with a FDV of 55 million, another fundraising feast, not sure what will come out this time --- Institutions keep pouring money into BTC, but the ecosystem is messing around on the ETH side, the contrast is quite stark --- DEX enters the mobile space, wallet businesses are about to be robbed again --- Always hearing about localizing stablecoins, is this really happening or just another wave of hype? --- Zama's fundraising pace, CoinList is about to cut another wave of retail investors, right? --- BTC spot ETF has sucked in 7.5 billion, ETH's 1.3 billion is really a bit embarrassing... --- On-chain finance expanding into Pakistan, this move is interesting, but can it be implemented?

BTC is once again taking market share from ETH, a classic case... Institutions are just into BTC, there's nothing we can do about it. Lighter's app was released quite quickly, but will users be willing to pay? Pakistan is working on stablecoins, this time it's really going to become widespread. Zama's $55 million valuation feels average; the key is to see what happens next. The migration of DEX to mobile is the inevitable trend. The gap in ETF... I don't understand it, but I'm truly shocked. Stablecoins are blooming everywhere; the landscape is about to change. Can Lighter beat dYdX? I'm just worried it might be a flash in the pan. Institutions love BTC; when will retail investors like us turn the tables?

BTC is bleeding again, ETH has been neglected... Do institutions only recognize Bitcoin?

Institutions still only focus on Bitcoin; Ethereum has really been neglected. With so much BTC inflow, it feels like a rally is coming. Is the Lighter Perp mobile version out? It's starting to reach ordinary users. Pakistan is also starting to use stablecoins... Traditional finance is really about to change. Zama's latest funding round is going well; CoinList channels seem a bit reliable. ETH has only 130 million, while BTC has 750 million... The gap is huge. Decentralized derivatives are heading towards mobile, this might be the next hot trend. Localization collaborations for stablecoins are increasing, true adoption is here.

Bitcoin still has the strongest money-making ability, institutions just prefer the big pancake. ETH can't catch up no matter how hard it tries, the gap is getting bigger. Lighter's mobile version is really awesome this time, finally able to trade lying down. Pakistan is launching a stablecoin? Is this serious? Traditional finance is really panicking. Zama's FDV starts at 55 million? I want to get in but I'm a bit scared. Feels like this year Bitcoin and Ethereum's positions are diverging more and more... Decentralized derivatives mobile penetration, this track isn't that simple. The bull market has brought various funds back to activity. The stablecoin line is indeed extending, is Pakistan just the beginning? Zama's funding is so fast? The FOMO index is rising again.
