In this week's analyst table Dan and Sam are joined Ren and Pibblez of the Blockworks Research team to dive into the risks of liquid restaking tokens and the looming ETF approval. They debate whether these LRTs are ticking time bombs and if stakers understand the slashable exposure they're taking on. The crew also explores the viability of Celestia's data availability and if gaming and rollups will drive the demand needed to justify its towering $15B valuation. Other hot topics include Bitcoin NFT mania, StarkNet activating STRK for gas usage, and EtherSca's acquirement of SolScan.
