Bankless nation, it is the August. It's time for the Bankless Weekly Roll Up. We got ETH just teasing us on that all time high, David. It's not quite hit it yet.
Just ripping through numbers, but not breaking all time high. Yeah. Well, because it was, like, $2,000 less two weeks ago. It sounded like a thousand dollars a week for two weeks.
But we're so close. Just teasing it. Also, Bitcoin did hit an all time high, stealing stealing some of the glory. And then Tom Lee is the first to 1,000,000 in ETH in his ETH treasury vehicle. Okay? ETH treasuries are just buying a ton of ETH. Think that accounts for a lot of the growth. We'll talk about that. What else we got?
We got some bad PPI numbers this morning, the morning of August 14. I, Ryan, am of the mind that all of these speed bumps that we come from, like, the economy, this any sort of, like, I don't know, war, these are all just speed bumps that, you know, the market is going up. The economy is strong. Market is strong. And so, like, yeah, we're gonna have some speed bumps along the way, and that's what we got with the PPI numbers.

When banks are angry, I'm happy.
Yeah. That's good for us. That's the whole bankless thing, right? Coinbase, adding a DEX to a Coinbase app, and that's doing numbers. We got all that and more. But David, before we get in, you know what? I want you to show me on why I should only listen to the Bankless podcast on the Bankless Premium Feed. I do that right now, by the way. I'm a Premium Feed subscriber, and I want you to tell me why I'm doing this again. Remind me.
We put out three episodes on the premium RSS feed this week. One with Uma Roy from Succinct, one with DeFi Dave from Cap, and then the third with Preston Van Loon, who is an Ethereum core developer. Ooma, they just launched the main net of succinct, and so we talked about that, talked about the proof token, and I just asked everything that I wanted to know about that. Ooma was here in the studio with me, so that was a live from New York episode. Dave from Cap Money startup on Mega ETH and also the Ethereum layer one.
