Meanwhile, Pump.fun’s website continues to manufacture Solana memecoins untroubled, as if blissfully unaware it’s been cast out from the X ballroom. Rumours for the exile include unlicensed livestreams, nefarious API gymnasts, or early SEC sabre-rattling—each deliciously unconfirmed, which, of course, is the very lifeblood of good gossip.
According to the ever-reliable CoinGlass data, the open interest in ETH futures surged dramatically over a mere three days, reaching that eye-popping $36.56 billion on Monday.

And then, as if the heavens themselves were cheering, news dropped last Friday: Shopify, that giant of commerce, is teaming up with Coinbase, the ever-ambitious U.S. centralized exchange, to bring us all closer to stablecoin payments via Circle’s USDC. This was, of course, announced just a day after Coinbase, with that inevitable bravado, declared their intention to integrate Base DEXs into their main app. An announcement that would shake the very foundations of the crypto world! Or would it?
The proposed CoinShares Solana ETF is supposed to have actual Solana (SOL) tokens backing it. Sounds fancy, right?

According to the ever-reliable Coinglass, a significant portion of this open interest has remained as stable as a well-bred gentleman at a tea party, despite the minor price fluctuations.

Meanwhile, Tron is not just playing in the kiddie pool of stablecoin flows; it’s making waves with a jaw-dropping $694.5 billion in USDT transfers during May, raking in a tidy $55.7 million in monthly revenue—just a hair behind Tether and Circle. With political endorsements that would make a campaign manager weep with joy, robust fundamentals, and a sprinkling of institutional interest, TRX is poised for a breakout that could make even the most seasoned investors giddy. 🎉
Adam Cochran, a partner at Cinneamhain Venture, took to X to express his discontent, stating that he would be exiting his positions at Coinbase. And who can blame him? I mean, who wants to be associated with an organization that’s clearly tone-deaf to the crypto community’s values? 🙅♂️
The filing hints at a wide array of digital delights, including trading, transferring, and paying via virtual currencies. JPMorgan is not just looking to dip its toe into the digital waters, but rather to cannonball into the deep end, offering everything from digital tokens to decentralized app tokens.

Before his White House appointment in January 2025, Thorgersen served as director of strategic operations for President Trump’s campaign and the Republican National Committee, where he earned a combined total of $232,000 in annual salary. But it seems he’s been putting some of that hard-earned cash into the world of digital assets.
According to a shiny new S-1 Filing with the SEC, President Trump’s Truth Social—a social media platform that’s about as popular as a root canal—has officially filed for this BTC/ETH ETF. It’s like they woke up one day and thought, “Let’s make some financial history!”
