Users, in their infinite wisdom, have been asking the eternal question: When, oh when, will Pi rise again? Well, folks, the answer might be lurking somewhere in a 2023 interview with Chengdiao Fan, the co-founder and Head of Product at Pi Network, who didn’t exactly give a concrete price prediction but did give us a few breadcrumbs of wisdom. And no, they weren’t the kind you can buy with Pi coins.
This Luke guy, he built stuff on Solana…gained insights. Insights! Like he discovered fire! He saw it go up and down! He ran a validator, managing $30 million. Thirty million! And you know what that means? Paper cuts. Lots of paper cuts. He’s now telling Ripple what to do? It’s just… the arrogance. 🙄
This little whiff of panic started after the CEO, Phong Le – a perfectly nice man, I’m sure, but hardly Saylor – had a chat on a podcast. Directly asked if they’d consider parting with some of their digital treasures, he didn’t exactly offer a resounding “never!” did he? How very… ambiguous.
Today’s market cap slipped coyly to just above $3 trillion, whispering the promise that December might bring wisdom-or, at the very least, a bit more clarity-into December’s chill. At present, Bitcoin modestly lapses 1.2% to $85,945, while Ethereum, staging a less theatrical, but equally lamentable, 1.5% retreat to $2,812. XRP took its cue and slipped by 1.6% to $2.01, while BNB fluttered 0.9% down to $828.
XRP fell by 7 per cent to 2.05, a most unfortunate turn of events, as the unseen hands of institutional sellers crushed ETF inflows. Falling below the 2.16 support caused a most alarming liquidation of 309.2M volume spike. It is imperative to hold at £2.05, or the price may descend further to £1.80, a most unseemly prospect. 💸
Gold, that glitzy noble who’s always first in a scuffle for dessert, hit a six-week glamour on Monday. Silver stormed past records, likely to avoid the shame of being called “mere” gold in the toffee-colored bathhouse of markets.
Bitcoin, you see, has had a proper thrashing – far more than those boring old stocks or shiny gold. Apparently, it’s a bit of a “leading indicator,” which means it wobbles first when things go wonky. And wobble it did! 📉
So, picture this: a cryptocurrency born as a joke, fueled by memes, celebrity tweets, and the collective hope of turning dog years into Bitcoin gains, suddenly goes deathly quiet. Not from the dogs, mind you – they’re still howling on Reddit – but from the big players, the so-called “whales” who move markets like gods playing Jenga with your life savings.
Now, despite Bitcoin taking a bit of a breather this November, Lee remains ever so hopeful. He’s calling for a full recovery and a new all-time high by January. How’s that for a New Year’s resolution? 🎉
According to a Monday CNBC report-a bastion of financial wisdom, no doubt-Kalshi has embraced the crypto horde by offering these tokenized contracts, now live on Solana. A move so bold, it tokenizes not just bets, but the very essence of speculation itself. “There’s a lot of power users in crypto,” John Wang, Kalshi’s head of crypto, remarked with a straight face. “This is about tapping into the billions of dollars of liquidity that crypto has,” he added, as if liquidity were a fountain of eternal youth. 🤑💧
