Northern Trust高管：加密貨幣對機構投資者來說已經失去了吸引力:金色財經報道，Northern Trust 數字資產和金融市場負責人 Justin Chapman 在舊金山數字資產周會議中表示，加密貨幣對機構投資者來說已經失去了吸引力，機構投資者在 2022 年之后就對加密貨幣失去了興趣，即使今年呈上升趨勢，他們對加密貨幣的興趣仍未恢復。

Chapman表示 ，機構已經將注意力轉移到加密貨幣的底層區塊鏈技術上，我們并沒有那么關注資產類別，因為客戶目前并不關注，所以我們沒有看到客戶將其納入投資組合的興趣。如果這種情況發生變化，作為一家公司，我們可以考慮這些業務，但從機構的角度來看，它肯定已經失去了‘光彩’。[2023/5/5 14:43:45]

Nansen報告：TerraUSD（UST）的崩盤可能由多個大型錢包策劃:金色財經報道，根據鏈上分析公司Nansen 今天在2022年5月27日發布的詳細報告，報告指出，Crypto Twitter上廣泛討論關于 UST 被單一強大實體攻擊的理論是沒有意義的。相反，七個大錢包探索了 UST-LUNA 代幣設計的不平衡狀態。最有可能的是，在 2022年5月7日，他們開始將 UST 流動性從錨協議 (ANC) 中移出。在 Terra (LUNA) 崩盤之前，該協議在UST穩定幣上提供高達19.5%的 APY。

然后，他們開始通過蟲洞橋基礎設施積極地將流動性從 Terra (LUNA) 鏈上轉移到以太坊鏈上。Nansen分享了七個鯨魚驅動的錢包的地址，這些錢包在這個過程中發揮了重要作用。Nansen將他們識別為“代幣百萬富翁”和“重度DEX 交易者”。（u.today）[2022/5/28 3:46:29]
