ALPHA:
Sam Kazemian spoke on Twitter spaces about the plans for Fraxlend and Frax ETH staking.

MARKET:
Inflation data came in under expectation for the first time in 15 months and risk assets responded with green numbers. Ethereum has lead the recovery faster than Bitcoin, mostly due to the narrative around the Merge to Proof of Stake.
$ETH is now up >100% since mid-June’s capitulation event and many believe the majority of flows will continue as we progress towards the official mainnet Merge (approximately Sept 15).
