Bearish sentiment? More like bearish fiesta. Liquidation charts look like a massacre, with longs getting wiped out faster than a plate of free donuts in the office kitchen. In the last 24 hours alone, $1.88 million in ICP liquidations were recorded, with $1.70 million coming from long positions. Ouch. That’s the financial equivalent of tripping on a banana peel in front of your crush. 😬
In a move that no one quite saw coming (except possibly the hedge fund manager who’s also a professional clairvoyant), Solel Partners LP decided to take a sizable stake in First American Financial (FAF). The purchase, valued at a cool $29.6 million as of September 30, now represents a sizeable chunk-5.7%-of their reportable U.S. equity holdings. While the transaction itself might not set off fireworks in the financial world, it does raise a few eyebrows-because, as you may well know, $29.6 million doesn’t just fall out of the sky unless you’re a certain kind of investor. The filing, as is customary, was delivered with the pomp and circumstance of a standard SEC submission on Friday afternoon.
Yes, you heard right! Ethereum hit a new all-time high (ATH) in a key performance index – a whopping 24,192 transactions per second (TPS)! That’s more TPS than my Uncle Louie has excuses for not dating. The blockchain’s just warming up, folks, and it’s processing requests like a caffeinated squirrel on roller skates.
Solel Partners LP filed its quarterly report like a man filing his taxes-because it had to. The numbers? 745,900 shares of Braze, a 4.1% slice of its $519.8 million in reportable assets. September 30 came and went. The market didn’t notice. The stock did.
Let’s dive into the juicy details! Picture this: from March to July, IP crypto pulled a Houdini and performed a falling wedge pattern, then-BOOM!-it catapulted from $3 to $14.50 in September, giving us a hefty 375% gain. 🎉 No, that’s not a typo. 375%! Who’s counting, right? But hold on, this wasn’t a straight shot to the moon. Nope, it had some pit stops, with those pesky ascending wedges that couldn’t hold it together. In the end, the big drop came from late September to mid-November. Classic! 🧐
Both are Vanguard’s kids, but they fight in different rings. MGK’s all in on the tech giants-the ones who build empires in the dark. VOO’s got its fingers in every pie, from finance to food. One’s a high-roller’s dream. The other’s a long-hauler’s bet. Let’s see which one’s got the edge-and which one’s playing with matches.
On the fateful day of November 14, 2025, Whale Alert-that ever-vigilant sentinel of the crypto seas-sounded the alarm: a staggering 92.6 million XRP, valued at $214 million, made its way to Coinbase. A move so bold, it left the market quite beside itself. 🦈📉
Sierra Protocol, ever eager and perhaps a touch too ambitious, has introduced a liquid yield token (LYT) on the Avalanche network, casting an enigmatic spell over DeFi users yearning for passive, risk-adjusted returns without the eternal chains of a lock-up period. The token, SIERRA, slinks coyly into the scene as the first LYT supported by a rebalanced portfolio-a delightful mix of institutional-grade real-world assets (RWAs) and well-heeled DeFi protocols. 🎩
The Technicolor dreamscape of October’s euphoria? Now it’s more like a monochrome nightmare. Bitcoin, after flirting with the $126k altar of all-time highs, has become a ghost of its former self, erasing roughly tens of thousands of dollars in value with the subtlety of a troll walking through a tiller.
Of course, XRP enthusiasts are now frothing at the mouth, predicting 2025 will be the year their digital darling finally gets its black-tie gala moment. Bold claims of $5-$10 by year-end are flying around like confetti at a New Year’s Eve party. 🎉🚀
