Gnosis DAO is conducting a Snapshot vote proposing to allow GNO holders to proportionally acquire shares of the DAO treasury through a voluntary redemption mechanism. According to analyst Ignas, the treasury holds approximately $223 million in assets (including ETH, stablecoins, and ecosystem tokens), with about 1.3 million GNO eligible for redemption, each corresponding to about $170 in treasury value, while the current trading price of GNO is around $132, representing a discount of about 27%.The vote reversed twice within 24 hours: after Gnosis co-founder Stefan George cast a dissenting vote, the situation briefly turned, but then a whale wallet holding 67,000 GNO cast a supporting vote, putting the supporters back in the lead. Currently, about 116,000 GNO are in favor (about 65%), 59,600 against, and 1,600 abstentions, surpassing the quorum threshold of 75,000 votes, with voting continuing until May 12.Supporters believe that Gnosis Ltd. has become a funding black hole structurally misaligned with the interests of holders, while opponents warn that redemption will weaken projects with actual users such as Gnosis Pay, Circles, and Gnosis Chain, and may trigger a chain reaction for other DAOs trading below net asset value.

According to The Block, Glassnode data shows that Bitcoin whales on Hyperliquid have pushed net long positions to a new high for 2026.Glassnode pointed out on the X platform that in recent weeks, whales have continuously increased their cumulative long positions, continuing the trend of going long that began during last month's BTC price breakout. Hyperliquid, as the largest on-chain perpetual contract exchange, often sees whale activity used as a sentiment indicator, with the total whale positions on the platform amounting to approximately $3.5 billion, with longs slightly outpacing shorts. Most liquidations in the past month have concentrated on short positions. On Wednesday, Bitcoin briefly broke through $82,000, reaching a three-month high.Bitcoin has maintained a negative 30-day average funding rate for 67 consecutive days, the longest record in ten years, with some analysts believing this may indicate a market bottom. However, the long-short ratio on Binance is currently about 0.53, below 1, indicating that most accounts still hold a bearish outlook.

Market analysis suggests that the continued accumulation by large on-chain addresses may reflect a rebound in the risk appetite of institutions and long-term holders.

The address 0x26c...B9392 has accumulated a total of 12,001 ETH deposited to OKX over the past two months, with a total value of $24.62 million.

According to monitoring by Hyperinsight, in the past half hour, a whale starting with 0x310 opened a 16x leveraged BTC short position, totaling 653 BTC, valued at approximately 50.6 million USD, with an average price of 77,470 USD and a liquidation price of 81,308 USD. This address is currently the TOP 2 BTC holding address on the Hyperliquid platform.It is reported that about ten days ago, this new address and its on-chain associated addresses withdrew a total of 1,351 ETH in spot from the HitBTC trading platform, which were then all sold on Hyperliquid, cashing out approximately 3.18 million USD. After multiple positions were established, as of today, a total profit of 720,000 USD has been accumulated.

Glassnode tweeted that the whales on Hyperliquid have been anticipating a price breakthrough in this range. Over the past two months, their confidence and long positions have continued to increase, indicating a strong bullish sentiment among large perpetual contract traders.

CryptoQuant analyst MorenoDV_ tweeted that if Bitcoin can rise above and hold the $80,000 mark, this position will turn from resistance to support; conversely, if it encounters rejection and falls back, it will confirm $80,000 as a significant selling pressure area, potentially extending the adjustment period into the second quarter.Currently, the realized price for BTC ETF investors is about $76,400, which is close to the spot price (around $76,300), marking the first time since January 30 that it has approached the breakeven point; short-term holder whales have a realized price around $79,600 and are currently facing an unrealized loss of about $9.4 billion.MorenoDV_ pointed out that historically, when these trapped funds are finally released, it often triggers significant selling pressure. Bitcoin is currently fluctuating in the $76,000-$80,000 range, where $80,000 is not only an important psychological level but also a common breakeven and release threshold for these two major groups.
