With an average entry price of $4,239, he’s currently basking in unrealized gains of $14,888-an impressive return of over 267%. Bravo, James! Or should we say, “bravo, risk management?” 😏
The grand announcement on August 22, following months of what one might charitably call “regulatory engagement,” marks a significant milestone.

Acting Assistant Attorney General Matthew Galeotti (a name that sounds like it belongs in a spy novel) dropped this bombshell during a digital assets summit in Wyoming. He declared-brace yourselves-that “merely writing code, without ill intent, is not a crime.” Bold move, Matthew. Truly groundbreaking stuff. It’s almost as if building tools shouldn’t automatically make you guilty of using them for mischief. Almost. 🤔
On Friday, Ethena Labs, with all the theatrical flair of a West End debut, announced their shiny new Eligible Asset Framework-a snazzy title for a system that decides which assets get to prop up USDe’s perpetual futures collateral reserves.

In a Thursday filing that could only be described as a legal soap opera, Judge Sharon Johnson Coleman has graciously granted Coinbase’s request to put the lawsuit on ice. This delightful little drama revolves around alleged violations of the state’s Biometric Information Privacy Act. Who knew biometric data could be so scandalous? 😏
Institutional adoption? More like institutional panic-buying. Singapore’s DBS Bank just launched tokenized notes on Ethereum because nothing says “financial innovation” like letting accredited investors gamble with crypto-linked securities. Spoiler: They’ve already traded over $1B in 2025. Congrats, you’ve officially tokenized your midlife crisis. 🏦💥
BeInCrypto, that intrepid seeker of truth, uncovered that Isaac and Alt5 Sigma, once JanOne Incorporated, are entangled in another SEC investigation. In 2021, the regulator, ever the judge of financial morality, charged Isaac with deceit. 💸

A shift toward long-term holding, as if the hearts of investors were not fickle, as if their resolve were not as fragile as a snowflake in the sun. 🧊
But wait, there’s more to this tale than meets the eye. Not too long ago, World Liberty was seen parting ways with a hefty 5,471 ETH for a mere $8.01 million at the modest rate of $1,465 per token. Oh, what a bargain, you might say, but not so fast! For you see, this same generous soul had previously spent a staggering $210 million to amass a whopping 67,498 ETH at an average cost of $3,259. Now, they find themselves sitting on a rather uncomfortable loss of about $125 million. Ah, the joys of speculative investing!
