Bernstein: Miners received over $100 million in rewards on the day of Bitcoin halving

Golden Finance reported that Bernstein analysts said that with the launch of the token protocol Runes, Bitcoin is experiencing a "DeFi summer" moment similar to Ethereum in 2020. On April 20, Bitcoin miners received over $100 million in rewards, including approximately $80 million in transaction fees alone. Bitcoin’s fourth halving reduced miners’ block subsidy reward from 6.25 BTC to 3.125 BTC. Before the halving, Bitcoin miners received a combined daily subsidy and transaction fee reward of approximately $60 to $70 million. However, that number soared to $107.75 million on April 20, according to Blockchain.com, despite miners receiving half of the subsidy reward for each block. About 75% of that ($80 million) came from transaction fees alone, both record highs, according to Glassnode.

Besant's "toolbox" struggles under the double pressure of oil prices and weak consumption, Goldman Sachs: "There is a scent of stagflation in the market"

Goldman Sachs believes that Baisent is trying to stabilize the long-term US bond market by expanding US Treasury repurchase operations and advancing fiscal consolidation. However, after a brief decline, long-term bond yields rebounded quickly, indicating that policy tools are still insufficient to resolve fiscal and supply-demand pressures. Meanwhile, stagflation signals have intensified: oil prices surged over 7% in a single week, and the 10-year breakeven inflation rate rose nearly 10 basis points in two weeks; yet consumer demand continues to cool, with Walmart same-store sales growth dropping to a six-year low of 2.6%. The "stagflation basket" rose 6.7% this week.
