Good Morning!

First up, a staggering $40 billion has poofed away from the crypto markets faster than you can say "Bitcoin," as BTC took a nosedive below $41K. It's like a magic trick, but nobody's clapping.

Over at Ethereum Foundation, they're stirring the pot by unloading $1.68 million worth of ETH. Talk about adding a little extra spice to the market!

Meanwhile, Manta Network has been facing a DDoS attack just as they hit the high note with their exchange listing. It's like throwing a party and having uninvited guests show up!

And for a breath of fresh air, Bitcoin mining is going greener than a St. Patrick's Day parade, hitting a record 54.5% in sustainable energy usage. They're not just mining; they're eco-mining!

$40B Gone From Crypto Markets as Bitcoin Drops Below $41K (5 minute read)
For a little while, BTC has been playing it cool and trading sideways for a while, but it decided to shake things up again and slipped below the $41,000 mark. And it's not partying alone - most of its altcoin buddies, like AVAX and SOL, have joined the fun, taking a more than 5% dive themselves.

Ethereum Foundation heaps pressure on market with $1.68 million in ETH sales (4 minute read)
The Ethereum Foundation, our friendly neighborhood blockchain supporter, has been busy with its piggy bank again! This time, according to the crypto detectives at Arkham Intelligence, they've cashed out a cool $1.6 million by saying goodbye to 700 ETH.

They swapped it for some comfy DAI stablecoin, using the CoW Protocol as their magic wand. And where did this digital treasure go? Straight to a mysterious address, "0x9ee…313D," which Etherscan has dubbed the 'Grant Provider'. Sneaky, right? This isn't their first rodeo either. Back in January, they did a similar trick, turning 100 ETH into $253,000.
