Powers On… Summer musings after two particularly bad months in cryptoland
This column’s goal has never been to provide investment advice on cryptocurrencies or other digital assets, nor has it been to provide individualized legal advice. It has mostly been about my desire to freely set forth in writing my thoughts on the state of the crypto market and the legal affairs surrounding it.
Powers On… is a monthly opinion column from Marc Powers, who spent much of his 40-year legal career working with complex securities-related cases in the United States after a stint with the SEC. He is now an adjunct professor at Florida International University College of Law, where he teaches a course on “Blockchain & the Law.”
So let me state the obvious: It has been a particularly bad past two months in cryptoland. Both in activities relating to digital assets and crypto prices. However there are silver linings to consider. And when considered, perhaps readers will gain a greater perspective and not act in a reactionary way with their digital assets or blockchain business.

On Thursday, Solana-native wallet Solflare released a new integration with cryptocurrency exchange FTX.com and FTX.us to simply portfolio management for Solana users. As told by Solflare, it would make transfers between one's custodial and non-custodial balances trivial by enabling users to manage FTX funds directly from their Solflare web extension and later via the mobile wallet. Of course, FTX know-your-customer rules would still apply to link one's exchange accounts with Solflare.
In addition, token swap on FTX accounts within the Solflare wallet would not be affected by Solana's infamous network congestions as liquidity is sourced from FTX instead of Solana. Though deposits and withdrawals onto the Solana network may still be slow at times. The wallet supports FTX nonfungible tokens withdrawal, deposits, and visualization functionality.
For decentralized finance, or DeFi, users, the integration would improve Solflare's ability to conduct coordinated airdrops and other yield incentives. Filip Dragoslavic, co-founder of Solflare, commented:
"FTX is probably one of the most popular centralized exchanges for DeFi users, especially on Solana. Integrating the two connects both worlds where you can command your FTX account without leaving Solflare. Confirming your wallet address is one unique human registered on FTX might enable new regulatory-compliant Web 3.0 opportunities."

Ethereum 2.0 stakers face a 36.5% larger loss than ETH spot investors — report
Ethereum investors who staked millions of dollars worth of Ether (ETH) tokens to become validators on its soon-to-launch proof-of-stake (PoS) network are now facing heavy paper losses.
Ether spot traders outperform stakers by 36.5%
In detail, investors have locked a little over 13 million ETH into the so-called Ethereum 2.0 smart contract since it went live in December 2020. However, there is no date when these investors can redeem their tokens alongside the 10% yield.
Interestingly, around 62% of Ether tokens were deposited before the price peaked at around $4,930 in November 2021. Meanwhile, the other 38% were deposited after the record high, according to Glassnode's latest report.

Source: GlassnodeAs a result, the total value locked inside the Ethereum 2.0 smart contract peaked at $39.7 billion in November 2021, led by 263,918 network validators. But now, the value has dropped to $14.85 billion as of July 7, despite an additional inflow of 5 million ETH in the last eight months.
Ethereum 2.0 stakers deposited ETH to the network's PoS contract at an average price of $2,390. So, ETH stakers are now holding an average loss of 55% as a result of ETH's 75% crash since November 2021, Glassnode noted.
