If you strip away the clamor and the noise of the digital age, three forces stand at the forefront, pushing Bitcoin forward. These forces are not mere flash-in-the-pan phenomena but are deeply rooted in the world’s economic soils, and they will, most likely, continue to exert their influence for the foreseeable future. Let’s take a closer look.
While the landscape flourishes, there lies, in its shadow, an ever-present question: Where should the discerning investor place their bet? Among the high-flying, speculative stocks, one might find a quiet opportunity-hidden, not unlike a neglected path through a blossoming forest. Let us then consider the case of On Holding (ONON), whose stock has fallen 34% from its peak, leaving us to wonder if this is the moment to step forth into the fray.
Specifically, TMC is setting its sights on the Clarion Clipperton Zone (CCZ), a stretch of seabed nestled between Hawaii and Mexico, that’s teeming with potato-sized rocks (or “nodules” as the smart people call them). These lumps are packed with precious metals-nickel, copper, cobalt, and manganese-like an underwater treasure chest waiting to be dug up. The kind of treasure chest that *only* the most daring (and perhaps slightly reckless) adventurer would attempt to open.
Nvidia (NVDA), that Zurich-born, Santa-Clara-raised architect of luminous matrices, remains less a company than a phenomenon forged in parallel threads and floating-point precision. Its graphics processing units-the GPUs-are not mere chips but chisels, sculpting the bedrock upon which AI dreams are trained, tested, and, occasionally, transcended. Yes, the relative growth rate has softened, draped in the velvet of statistical inevitability. But absolutes? Ah, absolutes-those sturdier oracles-tell another tale entirely.
This sell-off, one of the most brutal of 2025, liquidated over $19 billion in leveraged positions within hours, leaving traders grasping for explanations and perhaps a stiff drink 🥃.
Ah, the Republic of Kazakhstan, ever the stage for dramatic financial reforms, has launched a grand spectacle against the unlicensed cryptocurrency exchanges. Picture it, if you will: 130 illicit platforms, their curtains drawn in haste, their virtual treasures seized by the iron hand of justice. 🎭💻
So Bitcoin drops 7.5% – from a sky-high $125K (yes, really, we’re in the future now) all the way down to a measly $112,578. Only a *mere* $13K wiped out. No big deal. Meanwhile, Ethereum – poor, overworked, constantly gas-guzzling ETH – gets absolutely crushed. Down 13% to $3,799. That’s not a price, that’s a psychological trauma number.
According to Fox Business correspondent Charles Gasparino, discussions around a pardon are “heating up” within the White House. No official confirmation arrives, and yet insiders insist the talks have gained traction in recent weeks, as if the state were finally letting itself feel the tremor of the market’s whispering conscience.
The ‘Crypto Fear & Greed Index’ – a thing, apparently, meticulously compiled by individuals who spend their days attempting to quantify the collective anxiety of internet strangers – has plummeted to a ‘Fear’ level of 27. A mere 27! Back on Friday, these same experts were basking in a warm, foolish ‘Greed’ of 64. Honestly, the volatility swings faster than a babushka shaking her fist at a passing tram.
DKM, managing $124.58 million in U.S. equity assets subject to reporting, established a new position in QQQ. This holding-now worth 3.8% of its portfolio-was not present in the previous quarter. The purchase coincides with a period of strong momentum: as of October 9, 2025, QQQ stood at $610.70 per share, having risen 23.84% year-to-date, outpacing the S&P 500 by 8.38 percentage points. The market, for now, is generous to those who follow the index.
