🤯 Tether’s Bitcoin Bonanza: How They Snagged a Heap of Crypto! 🤖
Just so you know, here are the delightful titbits:
Just so you know, here are the delightful titbits:
Joao Wedson, Alphractal’s oracle of numbers, claims BTC’s calendar is scribbled with bullish secrets. “The New Year,” he sighs, “is a stubborn optimist.” After all, only thrice in BTC’s history has January’s opening week ended in tears. A 66% chance of gains, you say? Perhaps the market’s learned to tip its hat to tradition-or maybe it’s just too exhausted to argue. 😌

But hold the tears! If you peer beneath the gleaming surface, you’ll see that most stocks are not the lunatic inflated balloons they appear to be. Just a handful of tech giants-those greedy goblins gobbling up AI profits-are skewing the S&P’s valuation straight to the moon. Remove those monsters from the equation, and suddenly the index looks more Victorian modest-more in line with what sane folks would call “normal.” Meanwhile, the rest of the market-more sensible and less obsessed with robots-hides quietly below its long-term average, like a shy child hiding behind the curtains. That makes investments in the underdog ETFs, like the Vanguard S&P Small-Cap 600 ETF (VIOO 1.15%) or the Vanguard Russell 2000 ETF (VTWO 0.71%), whisper sweet promises of opportunity with a mischievous twinkle.

Enter Bayberry Capital, those sages of the crypto realm, who declare that $100 is not a price target but a “liquidity event number.” A clever ruse, no? For what is a price target but a mirage? 🌀
Yes, the CFTC-yes, that alphabet soup agency that somehow regulates everything from pork belly futures to the very fabric of digital reality-has once again summoned Amir Zaidi from the corporate wilderness. This time, as Chief of Staff. Presumably, a chair with more responsibilities than the last one. Or possibly just better coffee.
A U.S. federal judge, with the wisdom of a thousand grumpy old men, dismissed a crypto investor lawsuit against Mark Cuban and the Mavericks. Why? Because the defendants weren’t “found” in Florida. It’s like trying to sue a ghost for stealing your candy. 🧛♂️

In this pilot deal (because, let’s be real, they’re still figuring out if this is a genius move or a financial faceplant), Intelion pledged their freshly mined crypto as collateral. It’s like saying, “Here, hold my Bitcoin while I do a backflip into the future of finance.” 🌪️✨
Amidst Bitcoin’s 4% December nose-dive (👑 ugh, another forehead kiss for HODLers!), Michael Saylor’s investment circus, Strategy, continued its frenzied Bitcoin accumulation. One might mistake it for a madman shoveling diamonds into a cryptic vault. 💣

But then, just when you thought you could finally relax, the 10/10 crash hit like a bad ex. SOL dropped below $200, and now it’s a bear’s playground. 🐻❄️

Yes, dear reader, while honest citizens were weeping over their crypto portfolios and questioning the existence of free will, Tether was calmly expanding its Bitcoin hoard like a paranoid squirrel with a billion-dollar inheritance. Close to nine thousand Bitcoin-no, not a typo, not a hallucination, though given the price swings, one could be forgiven for thinking so.
