Valuation pressure is mounting on Bitcoin treasury companies as nearly 40% of the top 100 firms now trade below the net asset value of their Bitcoin holdings. The equity financing under these conditions is value-destructive. Macro analyst Alex Kruger compared the current model with the 2020 pre-collapse premium of Grayscale Bitcoin Trust, stating it was unsustainable. 🧠💸
Since October, over half of XRP’s supply has vanished from exchanges faster than your ex’s texts after they meet your mom. This isn’t just a move; it’s a strategic masterstroke, indicating holders are playing the long game-like kids with a piggy bank and the patience of a sloth on Valium. With fewer tokens available to trade, prices could react faster than a chameleon changing colors when buying picks up. If demand makes a comeback, XRP might not just see a rise-it could experience a vertical launch akin to a rocket fueled by espresso and ambition.

Enter Mindex, the state-run defense export agency, which has rolled out payment options enabling foreign governments to buy their arms with cryptocurrencies, barter arrangements, or good old Iranian rials.

On a Friday, when the world was busy forgetting the week’s woes, Hong Kong’s BitVentures Limited announced its plunge into the Digital Assets arena. The board, in a fit of strategic enlightenment, approved the acquisition of cryptocurrency mining fleets, as if blockchain were the new black. 🖤
As is tradition with such grand releases, eyebrows were raised regarding potential sell pressure-after all, when one lets loose a horde of tokens, does it not invite the throngs to sell? However, fear not! The early murmurs within the blockchain indicate that Ripple’s usual playbook is in action, with many of those freshly freed tokens already being primed for a triumphant return to the vault. How utterly predictable! 🙄
From a technical standpoint (or as technical as a Discworld abacus can get), this makes a sort of sense. Usually, top-caps show a clear direction after five weeks of sideways shuffling.
