On August 24th, billionaire Peter Thiel is placing a bet that Ethereum will become the preferred platform for Real-World Assets (RWA) on Wall Street. His investment firm, Founders Fund, has made significant investments in Ethereum-related assets and has invested in multiple companies that hold Ethereum as a treasury reserve asset, such as ETHZilla and Bitmine. Peter Thiel's investment thesis for Ethereum is based on the notion that if Ethereum can serve as an alternative channel for settling USD, stocks, and other assets outside of the traditional financial system, then its native token will gain substantially from increased network activity.

On August 24th, based on Coinglass data, if Bitcoin drops below $113,000, the cumulative long liquidation intensity of mainstream CEXs will reach $1.297 billion. Conversely, if Bitcoin goes above $116,000, the cumulative short liquidation intensity of mainstream CEXs will reach $423 million. BlockBeats Note: The liquidation chart does not accurately display the number of contracts awaiting liquidation or the exact value of contracts being liquidated. The bars on the liquidation chart actually represent the relative significance of each liquidation cluster to adjacent liquidation clusters, that is, intensity. Therefore, the liquidation chart shows to what degree the price of the asset will be affected when it reaches a certain level. A higher "liquidation bar" indicates that the price, once reached, will experience a more intense reaction due to a liquidity cascade.
