What once seemed a mere whisper in the digital wind now stands as a pillar of crypto’s foundation, its strength drawn from the growing interest of the titans of finance. 🚜💼

But wait! Before we toss our hats in the air, it seems some folks have been busy snatching their profits quicker than a kid grabbing candy on Halloween. Yes, there’s still a risk lurking in the shadows. However, two hefty market giants have decided to step into the ring, lending their mighty support. Together they look like an unstoppable force of bullishness!

It is a smaller affair than last week’s tempest, yet these expirations, like minor squabbles amongst neighbours, often stir up a surprising amount of commotion. And, as if ordained by fate, this occurs just as a foolish hope blossoms in the hearts of men – the expectation that the Federal Reserve will, with a benevolent wave of the hand, lower interest rates. As if such things were easily controlled! 🙄

In a confiding little whisper to the microcosm of the internet, our cheeky Glassnode has taken a peek into the mechanics of love, or what’s supposed to be one, between Bitcoin and Gold. This “Correlation,” if you’d kindly excuse the statistical term, is the cheeky but somewhat reliable chaperone that sizeably decides if our two lovers are head over heels in the same direction or frighteningly entangled in a dance of opposition. 🕺💃

Eric Balchunas, the guy who’s probably been waiting for this ETF since the 90s, says “Another delay. Launching next week. Mid week. Prob Thur.” Oh, great, another “next week”! What’s the deal, Eric? Are you running a dating app or an ETF? 💼

According to a chirpy X post by the number-crunchers at Lookonchain, BitMine’s wallet is now fatter than a Thanksgiving turkey. 🦃 Their latest purchase? A cool $200 million worth of ETH. Because, you know, they were feeling a bit light in the digital pockets. Back in September, they dropped a casual 202,500 ETH, pushing their total past the 2 million mark for the first time. Their goal? Own 5% of all ETH in existence. Ambition? Check. Sanity? Questionable. 🤔

Institutional inflows, whale activity, and a wave of staking are creating a chain reaction. It’s all very… reactive. They’re saying this pushes SOL closer to its previous All-Time High (ATH). Because setting new highs is *so* last year. Could this be the ‘true beginning’ of a “SOL season”? Possibly. Though, seasons change, don’t they? 🤷

But wait, there’s more. A few sneaky hints from both on-chain and technical indicators have emerged, suggesting that despite the week’s glorious price climb, something foul may be brewing beneath the surface. There could be a trap for the bulls if they fail to stay vigilant.

Let’s talk about Charlie Kirk, the human embodiment of a Fox News chyron. Sure, he was a walking controversy factory, but did you know he had a soft spot for Bitcoin? 🐳 Yup, while most people were busy debating his latest hot take on Twitter-sorry, X-he was quietly flexing his crypto credentials by lobbying Donald Trump to pardon Ross Ulbricht, the guy who turned Silk Road into the eBay of illegal drugs. Talk about unexpected plot twists!

Upon the ephemeral scrolls of X (formerly Twitter, that hive of madness), Egrag Crypto declared that if Congress, those august jesters of power, enact a decree to forbid their own kin from dabbling in the stock market, then lo! XRP holders must hasten to unload their holdings. This imagined bill-this legislative beast-promises to drive altcoins and crypto spirits alike into the abyss of despair. Why? One wonders. He offers no cryptic insight beyond the simple admonition: abandon ship, or drown with your digital gold.
