AO is now the 28th largest DeFi economy. TVL equal to Cardano.
Larger than: zkSync, Fantom, Scroll, Algorand, Filecoin, ICP, and many more.
Devs: Liquidity has arrived. Just build.
100% fair launch. 21m. 4 year halving. pic.twitter.com/4drWO7pbj0
He further patronized that @aoThe Computer is now larger than some other projects in the crypto landscapes like zkSync, Fantom, Scroll, Algorand, filecoin, ICP, and many more. He further said that @aoThecomputer would have a 100% fair launch of 21 million total supply and a 4-year halving would be commenced every 4 years like BTC.
Arweave Fundamental Principle are Same as BTC & ETH!
Arweave also sheds some light on its concepts that the fundamental concepts are the same and approachable if one understands Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH).

It further said that like Rollups are similar to Arweave Bundles, and Proof of Work is similar to Proof of Access, the permanent data appears to be pretty simple.

Furthermore, the founder said that Defillama chain TVLs are not listed yet for AO, but the curious one could find info on the DUNE, as it has a dashboard to look at the breakdown of its pre-bridge.

As per dune data at the time of writing, AO looks over $200,000,000 of $stETH that has been deposited into AO, which is appreciable. Thus, as the number says the exact value of Net stETH that was deposited has been 63,695 stETH, which amounted to $223.44 Million, and the total number of stETH depositors is 1058 in total.
How Arweave (AR) Crypto Price is Responding to AO?
AR price is at a crucial support, and it looks clear that the price could bounce higher and break the resistance at $50. Once the price crosses the $50 mark, then the price could go higher, as the gates would open towards higher levels.
At press time, AR was at $27.50 with an intraday loss of -1.48%, taking support at $23. The price approaches to cut 200-day and 50-day EMAs dynamic resistances from below. Meanwhile, in MACD, a bullish cross is anticipated. The RSI took a U-turn towards overbought from the oversold territory, which flashed at 36.15 and has taken support on 14-SMA.
Therefore, if the price manages to surge, near-time resistance would be $35.0 and $45.0, respectively. however, if the price fails to surge and plunges by breaking $23.0 support, then near support would be at $12.0.
