The IPO plan involves selling 25 million shares at $10 each under the ticker AEXA on the New York Stock Exchange. Chamath’s SPAC aims to merge with a business in his “historical areas of expertise,” which presumably includes making money, starting SPACs, and occasionally tweeting about Bitcoin. But this time, he’s pivoting to decentralized finance (DeFi), because apparently, Bitcoin is so 2021. According to Chamath, DeFi could be the key to maintaining US global leadership for the next century. Because nothing screams “leadership” like blockchain jargon and volatile crypto markets.

Earlier this month, the company whispered its secrets confidentially, joining a chorus of crypto firms eager to play market debutantes – all under the watchful eyes of a Trump administration that apparently thinks cryptocurrency is the new jazz. Meanwhile, the glorious Circle Internet Group amassed a fortune-because what’s more comforting than a stablecoin?-and the hopeful crypto world plotted its ascent like hopeful prom queens.

Behold! Toncoin hath kissed the heavens at $8.25 in June 2024-only to tumble forthwith like a courtier tripping on his own ruffled sleeves. By July’s end, it wobbled to $3.56, as if drunk on weak mead.🍷

Apparently, about one in four Singaporeans now owns some kind of digital asset. One in four! That’s either impressive or terrifying-depending on how much they lost during the last crypto crash. Anyway, Volkswagen is responding to this trend by offering what they call “modern and flexible ways to pay.” Flexible? Really? Last time I checked, paying with something that could drop 20% overnight wasn’t exactly my definition of flexibility.

In an act perhaps most fitting for a Greek tragedy (or a Silicon Valley sequel), cryptocurrency exchange Gemini has dared to file its paperwork with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, confidently aiming to go public. Alas, there lurks a problem so conspicuous that only a true financier could overlook it: the firm is hemorrhaging cash faster than a beleaguered poet drinks absinthe. 💸

The technical fellas are squintin’ at their charts, pointin’ to a showdown ’tween $4,200 and $4,300. Seems ETH’s been testin’ that range like a stubborn mule at a fence. If it breaks, well, $4,000’s waitin’ like a hungry bear at a picnic. 🍯🐻 And let me tell ya, that’s a round number folks love to chatter about-’cause nothing says “psychological” like a nice, even thousand. 🤓

The three musketeers, Lamarious Bradley, Lucius Bradley, and Chad Brown, are now facing some seriously big charges. If convicted, they could be looking at up to 30 years in prison and a fine of $1 million. Yes, you read that right-ONE MILLION DOLLARS. I guess that’s the price for bad mail habits. 🏛️
