And what of the clients, those hapless souls tethered to this financial chariot? They may now deposit and withdraw USDT0 with the ease of a man slipping into a warm bath. A “rich and combined liquidity pool,” they promise, spanning over 12 chains-Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, Berachain, Unichain, and their ilk. A veritable feast for the DeFi glutton! 🍴💰
The asset manager, ever the strategist, submitted an S-1 registration for a Litecoin ETF, a move that follows its earlier attempt to transform the Grayscale Litecoin Trust into an ETF. It was a move that spoke of determination and perhaps a touch of desperation, as the market waits with bated breath for any sign of progress.
Apparently, it’s all going straight into Bitcoin. I mean, why not? Leave the yen behind, dodge inflation, pretend sovereign debt isn’t looming over Japan like a Godzilla sequel no one asked for. Just plow ¥183.7 billion into some BTC and call it a day. What could possibly go wrong? 🤷♂️
Breaking the $112K barrier, Bitcoin has embarked on a new adventure in price discovery. Yet, as leveraged futures pile up, our market becomes a delicate house of cards, ready to tumble at the slightest breeze. 💧🔥
BlackRock’s IBIT ETF now stands as the colossus in the Bitcoin [BTC] ETF landscape, holding a staggering 751,283 BTC, which constitutes nearly 58% of all holdings. 🏦 Fidelity, trailing far behind with 200,956 BTC, can only watch as BlackRock’s shadow looms large. At the time of writing, Bitcoin trades at $112,960, a 1.01% increase from the previous day, as it hovers near a critical juncture.
Investors, those fickle creatures, have returned to Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) with the enthusiasm of guests at an open bar. Meanwhile, Ether funds are stuck in a tragic opera of red streaks, unable to shake off their melancholy. Truly, it’s a tale of diverging paths-one bathed in sunlight, the other shrouded in gloom. Where institutional conviction flows, so too does drama.
Behold, a million jobs-911,000, to be precise-hath vanished from the Current Employment Statistics (CES) like a poorly written monologue! This, after a preliminary revision by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics on Tuesday. The stock markets, those stoic spectators, barely raised an eyebrow, but bitcoin (BTC) took a nosedive of 1.5%, landing in the $110K abyss. A tragedy for the crypto enthusiasts, no doubt! 😱
On September 9, this little nugget of digital currency saw its market cap surge to a dizzying $3.35 billion, after barely breaking through the $200 million mark a mere week prior. Who needs a financial advisor when you have a rollercoaster ride like this?
🤔 Why the fuss? Well, darling, this isn’t just about blockchain-it’s about China flexing its green muscles! 💪 Earlier this year, Bit Origin went all-in on digital assets, but this? This is like upgrading from a tricycle to a SpaceX rocket! 🚀 Venom’s blockchain is faster than a New York minute (150,000 transactions per second, darling!) and more scalable than a Mel Brooks comedy sketch. 😂
As the day advanced, the stock tiptoed higher, with the promised nirvana of progress dangling before it-a paltry 4.5% increase tantalizingly within reach. What a spectacle! The newly minted fund, a bold declaration dubbed CoreWeave Ventures, shall focus its gaze upon startups constructing the very tools and infrastructures destined to propel us into the unfathomable abyss of artificial intelligence. What, pray tell, is the amount of gold to be scattered along this brave path? That remains shrouded in delightful secrecy, an enigma worthy of Dostoevsky himself.
