To put this in perspective, grabbing 1% of Bitcoin’s circulating supply means wrestling control of about 210,000 BTC from the market. At today’s prices? That’s roughly $24 billion-enough money to buy several small islands or fund an endless supply of avocado toast for millennials. So far, only Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) has managed to surpass this threshold, sitting pretty on their throne with 628,946 BTC tucked safely away. One wonders if they’ve considered framing each one digitally.

According to their hootenanny of an announcement on X (formerly the bird app, for you old-timers), BTCS is handin’ out $0.05 per share in ETH. That’s right, no cash, no checks-just good ol’ Ethereum. And if you’re loyal enough to stick around till January 26, 2026, they’ll toss in an extra $0.35 per share. 🤑 That’s $0.40 total, folks-enough to make a short-seller weep into his whiskey. 🥃

Krüger’s take? He’s confident the cycle isn’t over because he expects the new Fed chair to bring back dovish policies like it’s 2021 all over again. And no, markets aren’t ready for it yet. “Once Trump announces his nominee,” Krüger wrote, “that’s when things will start getting interesting.” Translation: strap in, folks. We’re about to see if Bitcoin can survive another round of political roulette. 🎲

According to the wise wizards at Justpit, who peer into their crystal charts with furrowed brows, $WLD is clinging to the $0.95 support like a limpet on a rock. This isn’t just any old number-it’s the lower boundary of an ascending trendline, as sturdy as a giant’s boot. 🥾 If it holds, huzzah! The memecoin might just muster the pluck to charge at $1.13. But if it slips? Oh dear, $0.87 awaits, grinning like a Cheshire cat with a secret. 😼

For those playing at home, Tether, the El Salvador-based stablecoin juggernaut, has its USDT token sitting pretty with a $167 billion market cap. That’s more money than I’ve ever seen in my wallet-or anyone else’s for that matter. 😎

In a move that can only be described as a U-turn of Olympic proportions, Michael Saylor has decided to flip-flop on his previous equity ATM (which, for the uninitiated, stands for “At The Market” and not “All The Moolah”). The latest guidance allows for the selling of MSTR stock to buy more Bitcoin [BTC], even if the premium decides to take a nosedive. 🎢

Translation for mere mortals:
A bunch of Cayman-Island-based bean-counters has been hired to sell the idea that staking DOT is the exact same thing as owning T-bills-only with more adrenaline and fewer ties. They promise “institutional-grade” access to DeFi, OTC desks, and something called “RWA tokenization,” which at first glance sounds like converting your entire life into NFTs of office chairs. 🪑💸

August 19 saw the announcement of SharpLink’s latest escapade, wherein they reported the purchase of 143,593 ETH between August 10 and August 17, 2025. If this isn’t a textbook case of “spending big in a bullish market,” I don’t know what is.

With the confidence of a man who’s just discovered a new continent, KindlyMD-through its subsidiary Nakamoto Holdings-laid claim to 5,743.91 Bitcoin, a sum so grand it could make even the most jaded investor raise an eyebrow. The price? An astonishing $118,204.88 per coin, totaling roughly $679 million, which sounds like a lot until you realize it’s merely pocket change for the future of global finance. 🚀

Over the past 24 hours, Ethereum has taken a sharp turn south, with increased selling pressure pushing it below key support levels. According to Coinglass, a staggering $117 million worth of Ethereum trades have been liquidated. Buyers took a hit of about $72.24 million, while sellers had to close around $44.7 million in short positions. It’s like a game of musical chairs where everyone loses their seat. 🎶💔
