On the 30th day of November, Mr. Buterin, in a tone both grave and dripping with sarcasm, implored the good folk of Zcash to abstain from adopting a scheme-token-based voting-which, he asserts, would cast a shadow over the long-standing civil liberties they cherish, in favour of fleeting riches. Ah, the eternal struggle between gold and virtue! 💸🛡️
Bitcoin is trading at $91,482 on Sunday, Nov. 30, 2025, and prediction markets Polymarket and Kalshi show traders leaning toward moderate upside expectations, treating extreme price targets like they’re from another galaxy. Traders are betting Bitcoin might soar by the year’s end, but definitely not in a way that will make you drop your coffee cup.
So, here we are, comparing the charts. Is Monad showing the same signs of failure as Pi Coin? Or is there some hope, somewhere? Let’s find out!
According to Ali-yes, that Ali, the crypto prophet who probably sleeps in a room filled with monitors-whale activity has plummeted faster than Grandma’s emotional stability at a family reunion. The last two months have seen these giants break into stealth mode, perhaps hiding because they saw the market’s mood and thought, “Eh, maybe a nap is in order.”
Capital inflows into the crypto market have fallen from $60 billion to $10 billion over the past month.
This resistance zone, my dear reader, has been as stubborn as a mule, repeatedly giving Bitcoin the cold shoulder. Its next move, one suspects, will set the tone for the coming week-a bit like deciding whether to don a top hat or a raincoat for the Ascot races. 🏇
A certain restlessness has settled over the ether, hasn\’t it? This new “Monad,” this blockchain, launched with a flourish just days ago, promising… well, promises are cheap these days, aren’t they? Its native token, MON, experienced a brief, almost indecent rise – an 80% surge, they say – reaching a peak of 0.048 on the twenty-sixth of November. A veritable whirlwind of enthusiasm, I assure you. One almost felt obligated to investigate, but one is, alas, a writer, not a speculator. 🤔
This year, the major indices-namely the broad-based S&P 500 (^GSPC +0.54%), the growth-fueled Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC +0.65%), and the venerable Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI +0.61%)-charged to heights last seen only in stories told by Wall Street’s grandfathers. These ascents have been powered by artificial intelligence (a phrase that now sounds like a weather forecast), hopeful anticipation of lower interest rates (which, if you think about it, are just the economy’s way of begging for a loan), and corporate earnings that seemed to dance just above their actual worth with a will of their own.
Oh, the PBOC has another idea! With the finesse of a toddler determined not to share toys, China’s central bank has once again solemnly declared war on cryptocurrency trading 🚀. Because nothing says “financial stability” like banning virtual coins until they vanish like magic tricks. Despite a roaring global crypto resurgence (we’re talking “Elon Musk’s tucked reference to Mars” levels), China’s clinging to its 2021 crypto ban like it’s their last remaining sock from a mismatched pair. And guess what? They’re now hunting “illegal activities” linked to crypto with the tenacity of a terrier at a tennis ball factory.
We’re talking 20,000 to 40,000 of these things. Which, to the uninitiated, sounds like a perfectly reasonable number of online accounts. But apparently, not for regular XRP users. It’s like suddenly all the hamsters on the internet decided to open brokerage accounts. Someone’s prepping, testing permissions, the whole shebang. Preparing for… what, exactly? Honestly, who knows. Probably something very important. Or maybe just a really elaborate digital pen pal scheme.
