Behold, the venerable Santiment, that oracle of on-chain wisdom, has penned a missive upon the hallowed platform of X, revealing the latest antics of the 100 largest wallets-those titans of the blockchain, whose holdings sway the tides of market sentiment like a pendulum of fate. To them, the term “whales” is but a humble descriptor, for their wealth is as deep as the Mariana Trench.

Speaking to the state news agency TASS (a publication, one imagines, entirely devoted to disseminating sensible pronouncements), Mr. Aksakov declared that Russians shall never be allowed the freedom to purchase their samovars or pelts with Bitcoin, Ethereum, or any other such ephemeral fancy.

BitMine, as any man of the world knows, holds the largest hoard of Ethereum in existence. They also dabbled, it seems, adding 43,553 shares of a Bitcoin ETF. A diversified portfolio, one supposes, for those with a penchant for digital trinkets. 🙄
