Dencun one year later: the numbers, the wins, the loose ends

Rollup fees dropped from $0.30 to under $0.02 on the median transaction. That's the headline — and it's real. Blob capacity has done most of the work it was designed to do.

    The rotation from alts back to majors is real. I'm sizing into ETH on every wick below $3.7K.

    Macro tail is constructive through Q2: two rate cuts priced in, DXY weakening, sovereign desks accumulating. BTC $120K base case isn't spicy — it's boring consensus now.
