Recall, dear reader, the days when onchain fees barely whispered past $2 billion. Now, they roar-a lion of utility, unshackled from the 2021 hype circus. 🎪✨ Fewer clowns, more clerks. Fewer bubbles, more bread.
The well-known cosmic traders at Coinbase, in a moment of millennial awe or perhaps in the hope of extra-terrestrial recognition, have delivered stellar third-quarter results. They’ve gone on a crypto shopping spree, stockpiling Bitcoin like it’s the next Big Bang. It seems their grand vision of the “everything app” may actually include time travel or universal peace-it’s hard to say.
They’re playing their cards close to their feathery chests about how long this pilot will run-or whether there’s a secret handshake involved for evaluation criteria. Who knows?
VOOG, the restless prospector, sifts only for growth-the shimmering nuggets of companies racing ahead like jackrabbits. VOO, the steady farmer, casts its net wide, harvesting both growth’s wild wheat and value’s rooted potatoes. Let us walk their trails.
The Bitcoin ETP, a sinuous creation by CoinShares (for whom the very name must be a dance of alchemical pride), shelters BTC as its “underlying asset.” A phrase so clinical it makes one yearn for the days of cathedral-window metaphors. The ETP, however, shall arrive not as a prince, but as a delivery-only trooper: “execution-only,” in banking parlance, which translates to: “Buy it yourself, dear sir or madam! Our advice is as scarce as sunny days in Helsinki.” 🧊

Picture, if you will, a gentleman reluctantly surrendering his last truffle at a dinner party: the sale represented 30% of their previous position, though one suspects the fund’s appetite remains intact. [em]The stock, you see, had been in something of a sulk[/em], down 10.6% year-on-year, sulking like a debutante excluded from the season’s premier ball.
An SEC filing from October 14, 2025, notes the reduction of AHB’s stake in the retail giant. The shares, sold at an average quarterly price, left a placeholder in the firm’s capital allocation-a gesture as quiet as a shuffled deck of cards after a long night’s game.
The filing reveals that Investment Planning Advisors, Inc. didn’t just dip their toes in the QQQM pool-they cannonballed. With 72,104 shares acquired at an average quarterly price of $247.00, the trade now accounts for 5.6% of their 13F reportable AUM. Imagine if your portfolio were a dinner party: QQQM would be the guest who arrives early, stays late, and steals the spotlight. Plot twist: They’re also the one who spills wine on the carpet.
According to the aforementioned filing, Palisades, in a gesture of prudence, liquidated its stake in Innodata during Q3 2025.
