1. Market Environment
The cryptocurrency market fluctuated over the weekend as it awaited the U.S. CPI data set for release on May 15. Traders displayed clear risk aversion, and the market lacked highlights. The
ETH/BTC ratio fell to 0.047, and Ethereum's network gas fee reached a low point of 2 gwei. In the past two years, the previous three lows in ETH gas fees coincided with price-bottoming phases for ETH.
Airdrops and TGEs from notable projects continue to draw market attention: Since EigenLayer opened claims for the EIGEN token airdrop, the number of participating addresses has exceeded 130,000 and is still rapidly increasing. Airdrop announcements from BounceBit, io.net, Notcoin, and LayerZero have sparked interest.
