In a tweet that probably took longer to write than their entire crypto strategy, the company bragged about now holding roughly 93 BTC-worth about 10.9 million USD (or, as they say in Korea, “enough to buy a lifetime supply of bulgogi”). And get this-they bought these digital gold nuggets at an average price of $117,647 per bitcoin. Because why not?
And let’s not forget those plucky little altcoins-like ETH, SOL, ADA, and friends-who jumped in with a chorus of “We can do it too!” gaining ground and making traders’ heads spin. ETH, for example, lifted over $4,200 like it had a jetpack, and SOL bounced back over $200, shouting, “I’m still here, don’t forget me!” 🚀💥
Markets What to know: 🧐 XRP, that mischievous sprite of the crypto realm, surged 3% to $2.68, breaking above the critical resistance level at $2.63 with a volume so significant it could wake the dead. 💀📈 Institutional interest, those shadowy figures in tailored suits, and upcoming regulatory developments are driving this frenzied dance of numbers. … Read more
Back in April 2025 – yes, that’s the future – Kyrgyzstan’s government signed a verbal contract, probably sealed with some traditional vodka shots, with Binance’s boss-turned-global-finance-whisperer, Zhangpeng Zhao. This handshake (or digital equivalent) was intended to push crypto adoption faster than a Formula 1 car in a hurry. Zhao then went bragging on X (aka Twitter’s loud cousin) about their latest schemes following a secret meeting with Kyrgyzstan’s “Hey, We’re Serious About Blockchain” committee.
Bitcoin’s at $113,851 today-yeah, that’s a real number, not a typo. CoinGecko says so. And Ethereum? Oh, it’s almost at $4,100. Who knew that calm talks and trade deals would turn the crypto world into a piggy bank on steroids? 💸

According to the clever folk at REX Osprey, their REX-Osprey XRP ETF (ticker: XRPR) achieved this feat in mere weeks after launching on September 18. The fund allows investors to tuck XRP-a cryptocurrency now nestled comfortably in the fourth seat of market cap royalty-into their portfolios. How very modern.
The “breakthrough” happened during Trump’s second-term Asian tour (yes, he got a second term-don’t ask). He signed some papers with Malaysia, waved at Thailand and Cambodia making peace, and China graciously delayed rare earth export controls. Because, you know, nothing says “trustworthy trade partner” like “we’ll hold off on screwing you over… for a year.” Meanwhile, Trump’s 100% tariff threat? Poof! Gone. Maybe. Probably not. Who knows?
Ah, the glorious world of crypto! Ripple CEO, Brad Garlinghouse, boldly declares that “XRP sits at the center of everything Ripple does” – a statement that has us all hanging on his every word.
