"What are some exciting articles worth reading in the past 24 hours"
1. "After the Web3 Grants 2023 donation round, which projects are worth paying attention to?"
Web3 Grants can be understood as protocols allocating a portion of their revenue or native tokens to incentivize protocols, projects, or research beneficial to the entire Web3 ecosystem or a specific ecosystem. For projects, grants not only provide financial support but also signify endorsement and diversified support. For large protocols, grants help retain developers, thereby promoting the development of the entire ecosystem.
This article selected the most representative 4 Grants, namely Ethereum Foundation's Ecosystem Support Program (ESP), Gitcoin Grants, Optimism RPGF, and Uniswap Foundation Grants, attempting to find "hidden gems" from their 2023 donation projects and research.
2. "HashrateIndex: Looking back at the Bitcoin mining industry in 2023"
2023 was a year of recovery for the Bitcoin mining industry. After the market crash triggered by the collapse of the FTX empire, Bitcoin entered 2023 at a price close to 17,000 USD. The hash rate price remained well below historical lows (60 USD PH/day). The largest publicly traded mining enterprise, Core Scientific, was undergoing bankruptcy liquidation, while many other mining enterprises such as Iris, Greenidge, and Argo were undergoing debt restructuring, with many others soon to join them. Due to the compression of hash rate prices and rising electricity costs, many miners in the North American region were approaching breakeven points.
However, 2023 truly surprised everyone. The coin price quickly rebounded from the lowest point after the FTX crash and achieved a 149% increase throughout the year. The hash rate price rose by 71% in 2023, marking a significant reversal since the 76% decline in 2022; this recovery was largely due to the bull market in transaction fees, mainly from inscriptions and ordinal activities, a new Bitcoin-based NFT/digital collectibles standard that created record transaction fee income for miners. From most indicators, 2023 was a complete reversal of the 2022 market crash.
