Meanwhile, the SEC, now apparently led by someone who might have confused their job with a game of Monopoly, is pondering whether to accept this digital speculation as an official asset class. With Chair Paul Atkins, a man whose enthusiasm for crypto could probably power a small moon colony, the fate of these filings is as predictable as a cat deciding it owns the keyboard.
Pepperstone’s JPYX, a curious beast measuring yen’s strength against EUR, USD, AUD, NZD-now a stage for BTC’s tragic romance. Bitcoin, that noble “digital gold,” now shadows the yen’s every flicker. A diversifier? Ha! It’s merely a double bet on Japan’s fiscal waltz.
Everyone’s now comparing it to Bitcoin. Naturally. Because if something is vaguely financial, it must be like Bitcoin. Analysts are whispering about “breakouts” and “potential.” As if markets are predictable, and not just a giant, chaotic shrug. 🤔
Additionally, XRP-our virtuous, agile triathlete-has leaped past the good old BNB. Can you believe it? What was once nothing more than a humble possessor of the fourth rank has now arrogated itself to the third! And to think, one might walk into San Francisco without seeing a ripple of fame… until the last quarter of the year that is!
Bitcoin’s price has struggled to break through $95,000, as many sellers stepped in to prevent it from rising further.
Over in Hong Kong, as the sun peeked over the horizon, BTC took a modest dip, but it’s still stuck in its range, like a tourist lost in a maze. George Mandres, a crypto sage at XBTO, reckons it’s a tug-of-war between prices soaring to match the highs of stocks and gold, or slumping to respect some mystical four-year cycle. “A self-fulfilling prophecy,” he mutters, stroking his chin.
Kim, a 25-year veteran of the National Intelligence Service who later traded spy games for politics, now faces at least nine corruption allegations. Spoiler: Most involve “I did it for the family business” energy. 💁♂️
A sweeping market structure bill, once hailed as the North Star of clarity, now teeters on the brink of oblivion until 2029. Senate negotiations twist like a serpent eating its tail, ensnared by Trump’s ballooning crypto empire and Democrats’ midterm chess moves. 🐍
Just recently, President Trump announced that the U.S. would “run” Venezuela until a “safe, proper, and judicious transition” could occur, casting the move as part of a broader effort to curb alleged drug trafficking and safeguard oil resources. The decision has ignited widespread debate over whether comparable interventions or regime shifts could unfold in other nations viewed as U.S. adversaries or strategic priorities. 🧠
Chainlink, all proud, goes, “We’re making a new market, a very exciting new market,”-as if that’s not what they say every Monday. They call it Data Streams, which sounds like something out of a sci-fi movie. Fast, real-time data coming from everywhere-kind of like those telemarketers, but useful. 🤖
