On-chain data shows that BitMNR deposited a whopping 74,880 ETH into Ethereum’s proof-of-stake system. That’s nearly twenty-two hundred million dollars, or as I like to call it, “the amount you’d need to buy an island… or two.” Considering they’ve been sitting on this Ethereum like a squirrel on acorns, it’s a bit like discovering Uncle Larry finally decided to invest in stocks-after all these years of just looking at the ticker.
Yet history teaches us that when champagne flows freely on Wall Street, the hangover arrives with remarkable punctuality. Two venerable soothsayers-the Shiller P/E Ratio and the Buffett Indicator-now point their bony fingers at 2026 with the grim certainty of tax collectors.
Stephanie Aliaga from JPMorgan noted AI capex added 1.1% to GDP, outpacing the consumer’s tired shuffle. The S&P 500’s monthly gains since April?

Picture this: every eligible participant, standing at the precipice of their screens, eagerly anticipating their DOGE rewards as if they were children awaiting the arrival of Santa Claus. It’s a delightful mass airdrop, a digital feast where everyone leaves with their pockets jingling! 🤑

We all thought the return of President Flavor Trump as the “crypto cavalry” meant better times were upon us. He was on the campaign trail plastering “No More FUD” across his shirts, every exhale practically a “whip those crypto regulations into shape.” Picturing all those crypto renegades serenading in the streets, most heartily endorsed, say, Trump-shorts.
Yet, one might ponder: what drives investors to furrow their brows over such figures? The very same facts, like a two-faced coin, can lead to disparate conclusions. On one hand, the business appears resplendently robust compared to its former self of yore; on the other, the price at which eager investors now find themselves beckoned is far less forgiving, a veritable siren luring them toward rocky shores.
