Now, here’s the twist: we won’t be seeing October’s CPI figures because, surprise, surprise, the government decided to take a little vacation-AKA, a shutdown. So, investors are left peering into the crystal ball of annual CPI and core CPI prints, trying to decipher how inflation might mess with the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) plans. It’s like watching a soap opera, only with fewer dramatic love interests. 📉
According to Axel Adler Jr. (who sounds like he should be hosting a Eurovision spin-off), the Structure Shift composite indicator and the Bull-Bear Index are both throwing shade at Bitcoin. Apparently, the derivatives market is having a proper hissy fit, and downward pressure is the new black.
Christine Kim, a researcher at Galaxy Digital, relayed this news with the urgency of a snowplow in Moscow. She cited Ben Adams and Kamil Chodala of Nethermind, who, during a recent “All Core Developers” call, claimed testing would conclude by January 7. This, they insisted, would grant Ethereum a 66% blob capacity boost-though one wonders if they’ll celebrate with vodka or just another round of debugging.
On the chill of October 16, the 31-year-old was transferred from the low-security Federal Correctional Institution in Danbury, Connecticut, to a place where the walls are softer and the chains less visible. The Bureau of Prisons, ever the guardian of secrets, refuses to disclose her whereabouts, citing privacy and security. Yet, in this age of whispers and leaks, one wonders if it is privacy they protect, or the embarrassment of their own leniency.
The FCA’s survey, conducted between August and September 2025, used a YouGov panel of 2,353 people (plus a “boosted sample” of crypto enthusiasts). While 91% still know what crypto is (thanks, TikTok!), fewer are actually holding it. It’s the digital equivalent of knowing about kale but refusing to eat it. 🥬
A subsidiary of the crypto family empire, Ascension Group, enlisted the dark arts of Arch Public-masters in crypto algorithmic wizardry-to craft a strategy that operates within the comforting confines of tax-advantaged retirement accounts like IRAs. Because nothing screams freedom like compliance! 🧐
Back in March-on @BloombergTV, no less-our hero predicted that $RLUSD would hit the top 5 USD stablecoins by the end of the year. While everyone else was busy asking, “Do we really need another stablecoin?” – Brad just smirked and said, “Hold my beer.” 😁
Props to @_JackMcDonald_ and the RLUSD dream team! 🎉
CoreWeave, Nebius, Bitfarms-same dance, different partners.
Tom Lee, who’s either a genius or just really good at emoji-filled Twitter threads 🧠, claims Bitcoin’s RSI is currently “lower than my will to live on a Monday morning.” Historically, when Bitcoin hits this level of despair, it tends to bounce back 25% within 60 days. So if the chart gods are feeling generous, we might see $110,000 by mid-2026. Assuming the world doesn’t implode first. 🌍
Binance, with the solemnity of a Victorian butler addressing a rogue penguin, has issued a transparency update cautioning projects against “fake listing agents.” The exchange, ever the paragon of propriety, insists all applications must come directly from project teams-no intermediaries, no snake oil peddlers, and certainly no charlatans claiming to be “Binance-approved.” Amid a surge of scams (one would think founders could distinguish a genuine agent from a disheveled con artist), Binance reaffirmed its commitment to “structured listings,” a phrase that sounds suspiciously like a euphemism for “please stop embarrassing us.”
