In a spectacular twist of fate, Ripple declared, on Thursday, their partnership with BFB-so glittering and strategic, it could give anyone a run for their money. Together, they’ll endeavor to enhance Bahrain’s digital ecosystem by piloting fintech projects, testing out cross-border payments, tinkering with stablecoins, and even dipping their toes in the vast ocean of tokenization. Ah, what a world we live in! 🌍

In a dramatic blog post (cue the slow music), Ethereum Foundation’s very own Nicolas Consigny took to the interwebs to announce this grand plan. The goal? To create an entire set of privacy and security “primitives” for the Ethereum ecosystem. Sounds fancy, right? But it’s all just techy-talk for making sure you don’t get hacked while playing around with your crypto.

This wasn’t just a stumble; it was a full-on faceplant. Over 573,000 AB tokens traded hands in a blink, generating a whopping $5 million in volume. But liquidity? A measly $2.17 million. It’s like trying to swim in a puddle-one wrong move, and you’re drowning. 🏊‍♂️💥

When MNT reached its peak of $2.84 today, it wasn’t just a moment of ‘Oh, this is cool.’ No, it was accompanied by a 75% increase in daily trading volume, jumping to a respectable $840 million. This signals an immense amount of bullish sentiment. Traders are practically frothing at the mouth, trying to get a piece of the action. Meanwhile, MNT futures open interest surged by 14.11%, now sitting at $487 million. All of this sounds like a summer camp for optimists, doesn’t it?

“Through its metamorphosis from a mere payment puppet into a digital financial leviathan, PayPay shall bestow upon the masses new treasures, while polishing the rusty gears of Japan’s financial machinery,” the proclamation blared, as if penned by a poet of the proletariat. 🏭📜

Let’s talk about it. XRP’s price is hanging by a thread, folks, with large holders running for cover. It’s like a game of musical chairs, and if you’re not careful, you might end up holding the bag-an empty one! 🎶💸

In a missive dispatched via the bird app, X, Glassnode has regaled us with tales of how these financial behemoths navigated the latest pullback in Bitcoin’s price. Behold, the chart below, a testament to their supposed foresight, tracking the BTC Long/Short Bias-a metric as convoluted as the minds of those who devised it.

DTCC’s Exchange-Traded Funds page now features this political meme coin under the ticker TRPC, but don’t get too excited. The SEC hasn’t given it the green light yet, so it’s still in the “sitting in the corner sipping a mocktail” phase. 🍹 Meanwhile, the ETF is tied to a Solana-issued token linked to-wait for it-Donald Trump. Because 2025 is apparently the year we decided to blend politics and crypto into a financial piña colada. 🍍

Tandis que mon ami XRP faisait danser le cours entre $2.75 et $2.88, une prudente consolidation s’amusait à se dessiner tout en ramassant de l’or institutionnel, offrant près de $928 millions en porte-monnaie. Le prochain chapitre de cette romance pourrait voler par les fenêtres suivant les événements critiques dès demain ! 💼📈

Bitcoin, that digital ledger of “I told you so,” is currently engaged in a high-stakes tango with time, according to Peter Brandt, a trader who probably still uses a dial-up modem. The gist?
