Mashreq Capital, the asset management arm of a UAE-based financial institution, has launched a product that blends the ancient with the digital, offering a sliver of Bitcoin to those who might otherwise be content with a camel and a date. The BITMAC Fund, a curious mix of gold, equities, and the wild, wild west of finance, aims to ease the way for retail investors into the crypto abyss. 🐪💰
Whale Alert data, which is about as reliable as a weather forecast in Discworld, reveals these wallets had been napping since 2011 and 2012. Suddenly, they woke up, moved their full balances, and left the room without a word. 🕵️♂️
At first blush, treasury company Strategy (Nasdaq: MSTR) and mining firm Mara Holdings (Nasdaq: MARA) appear as twin peas in a cosmic pod. Both are revered names in the bitcoin community, hoarding BTC like Scrooge McDuck in a crypto-themed vault. Strategy, however, possesses tenfold the BTC of its rival, yet both employ the same strategy: hoarding the digital coin to maximize yield. But according to Vaneck’s Head of Digital Assets Research, Matthew Sigel, Mara’s financial acrobatics are far more precarious than a penguin on roller skates.
Let us dissect their virtues and vices, for in this grand theater of finance, even the smallest detail may tip the scales of fortune.
Analysts, bless them, are watching this spectacle with the keen eye of a spy at a royal ball. The verdict? This little duel might just decide the crypto’s fate-either sky-high or belly-flop.

This $723 million offering, classified as a mid-cap growth vehicle, occupies a peculiar position in the market’s great ballroom-neither fully a contender for the dance floor of mega-cap dominance nor entirely resigned to the periphery. Its holdings, though smaller in stature, possess a nimbleness that might yet outmaneuver their stately cousins, provided the tides of fortune favor such agility.
The fall, a cruel mistress, erased all gains from previous attempts to reclaim the lofty $94,000-$95,000 zone, marking the second such calamity this month, as if the market itself were weeping for the lost gold. 📉😭
In the third quarter, Caledonia-armed with a ledger thicker than a toad’s wallet-hoarded 1,935,803 additional shares of Coursera (COUR +0.48%). By quarter’s end, it held 9,313,631 shares, a treasure trove valued at $109.06 million. The previous quarter? A measly $64.63 million. One might call it a feast, though the menu remains suspiciously unappetizing.
UNI’s 1-hour chart? Oh, it’s like watching paint dry. From the $6.20-$6.10 range, it’s fallen like a bad haircut into the current $5.81-$5.83 territory. That steady selling pressure is about as relentless as a gossip session at a family reunion. 🙄
Now, hold onto your hats, folks, because merchants across Europe will be able to accept EURC payments on Ethereum (ERC-20), Solana (SPL), and Base. Yes, you read that right. They’re not just dabbling in one, but THREE blockchain networks. So, in a world where speed and security are often at odds like two people fighting over the last slice of pizza, these guys have managed to make blockchain transactions faster and more secure-like having your cake and eating it too, only without the risk of a sugar crash.
