A mere 5,653 souls, yet enough to make one wonder if the entire world has suddenly developed a taste for digital dog treats.

And still, the crypto community whispers, “Is this the start of a revolution, or just a very expensive coffee table?”

Arkham Intelligence, that oracle of blockchain, has declared this purchase the stuff of legends. Meanwhile, the world watches, wondering if Bitcoin’s next move will be a moonshot or a misstep. But hey, at least BlackRock’s got better taste than the guy who bought NFT penguins.
