And yet, as the market slides into what can only be described as a melancholic slump, traders are already busy drafting plans for 2026, as if the future could somehow save them.

Bitcoin’s New Reserve: A Billion-Dollar Dilemma 🚨

This reserve, a gilded cage, is destined to pacify the clamor of preferred stockholders and the murmurs of debtors. A noble endeavor, yet one that stirs the soul of Bitcoin maximalists, who, like zealots in a temple of chaos, cry out: “How can you hoard USD when the sacred coin beckons?” 😤💥

Dogecoin Opens The Floodgates: Here’s The Update On Shiba Inu And BONK ETFs

Now, let’s talk about BONK-a name that had its fair share of ridicule. But no more! BONK, in a move that can only be described as audacious, has launched its own exchange-traded product (ETP) on the SIX Swiss Exchange. Yes, you heard that right-one of Europe’s most prestigious markets now plays host to this meme-coin. And the result? An intraday rally that had traders doing a double-take, as though they were reading some absurd plot twist in a tawdry romance novel.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP: A Chaotic Christmas Carol in 2025 🎄💸

BTC, that old rogue, has taken a nosedive of seven per cent, now slinking toward $85,395 after a November that would make a hangman weep. Traders, ever the optimists, cling to an 87% chance of a Fed rate cut, but the Yearn exploit has dashed hopes like confetti at a funeral. If this bearish freefall continues, BTC might yet revisit the $74,458 zone-a price so quaint it belongs in a museum. But fear not! Should BTC reclaim its trendline, a bullish renaissance might yet bloom by mid-December. Or not. 🚀

Because why build it when you can buy it, right? 💸

When Bitcoin Gets as Big as a Gigantic Giggling Gorilla! 🤡💸

But wait! That wasn’t all. Mr. Saylor, always the clever fox, decided to sprinkle some extra magic dust. He set up a colossal stash of US dollars – a cool $1.44 billion – just sitting there, ready to fry a big ol’ steak of dividends and pay off debts as smoothly as butter melting on a hot pancake. His plan? To have enough dough for at least a whole year’s worth of singing and dancing payments… and then some! Because why settle for just a year when you can aim for two? 🎯🤑

Tech Investment Returns: XLK vs S&P 500

The so-called “Magnificent Seven” now dominate the S&P 500 like a cabal of overambitious aristocrats, their collective earnings and performance a testament to the peculiar logic of modern capitalism. One might say they have seized the reins of the benchmark with the same ruthless efficiency they apply to their quarterly reports.
