On the fateful day of September 22, LINK suffered an 8% plunge, a tragicomic dip in a broader market decline that sent prices skittering toward the $21 mark. A billion dollars in market cap vanished, poof! like a magician’s rabbit, leaving the token’s valuation hovering at a mere $14.8 billion. Yet, in this moment of panic, the whales-those leviathans of lucre-seized the opportunity to buy the dip, gobbling up over 800,000 LINK tokens. Greed, thy name is whale. 🐳💸

Enter Steam. Not the trusty engine of entertainment we all know, but rather, the smooth-talking scammer’s best friend. Plavnieks was duped into playing a game called Block Blasters, a title that promised financial rewards in exchange for playing. Ah, but there’s a catch: it wasn’t a game-it was malware disguised as a game. So, like a moth to a flame, Plavnieks clicked, and the malware did what it does best-it drained his crypto wallet faster than a teenager can spend their first paycheck.

Now, the million-dollar question: Is ASTER the next big DeFi thing, or are we looking at a classic case of hype masking high-risk? You tell me.

Meanwhile, the “whales” of Dogecoin are now swimming toward Pepe Unchained (PEPU), a new meme coin that’s supposedly going to rocket 208% in 2025. Because nothing says “financial stability” like a dancing frog. 🐸🚀

This week, Bitcoin lost nearly 2%, dancing around the $113,000 mark. September’s options expiry is whispering sweet nothings about $110,000-probably the “max pain”-which, let’s face it, sounds like a sadist’s favorite game of pretend. Max pain? Just a poetic way to say traders are likely to get hurt.

According to our fanciful 4-hour magic chart, that splashy dip was likely due to some dastardly bearish divergence! Picture this: as Bitcoin was strutting up to $117,500, the Stochastic RSI and RSI were busy throwing sneaky lower highs-classic bear trickery, I say! However, despite this mischief, it seems our beloved Bitcoin might just be poised for a cheeky comeback! 🎩✨

Bitcoin, that eternal phoenix of the financial world, soared to new pinnacles, its millionaires swelling by 70% to 145,100 souls, while the crypto market’s valuation ballooned to a staggering USD 3.3 trillion. A 45% rise! One might say the market is less a beast and more a hyperactive squirrel with a penchant for numbers. 🐿️

Behold, the mighty PayPal, a titan of the payment realm, has donned its crypto armor. The company recently declared its allegiance to Stable, a blockchain designed to make stablecoins feel at home-like a well-bred gentleman in a drawing room. 🦸♂️

Blockchain sleuths, those modern-day Sherlock Holmeses, uncovered the culprit: a “delegateCall” vulnerability. This digital skeleton key allowed hackers to boot the original admins and install themselves as the wallet’s new overlords. One might call it a *coup d’état*, if coups weren’t generally considered more glamorous. 🎩
