Yet, dear reader, do not mistake this retreat for capitulation; no, it is more akin to the quiet before the tempest, where the air hangs heavy with portent. Three specters haunt Supermicro’s corridors: shrinking market share, squeezed margins, and the specter of losing key clientele-all conspiring like ill-mannered guests at a dinner party to undermine growth, profitability, and the very soul of its stock value.
With this acquisition, the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF now accounts for 3.95% of Tactive Advisors’ $309.28 million in assets under management (AUM). A modest figure, one might say, but not without its significance. The ETF’s position, though far from dominant, has certainly earned a place among the top holdings in their portfolio. As of June 30, 2025, the key components of Tactive Advisors’ holdings are as follows:
The originating account, in a fit of existential crisis, split its output like a man torn between two lovers. Ten million XRP went one way, while the more substantial 35 million-a veritable mountain of digital hope-took a different path. The latter paused briefly at an address already shackled to Ripple’s chariot, before nearly 30 million XRP found solace in a wallet marked by trackers as part of the On-Demand Liquidity network. A fleeting stop, a moment of reflection, and then-onward, into the abyss of financial intrigue. 🕳️
So here’s the tea: SHIB has roughly three trading sessions left before it flirts dangerously with this oh-so-important boundary. The setup? Oh, it’s giving us cautious optimism vibes-if you squint really hard. 🤔 The rising support line has been doing its best superhero impression, absorbing all that selling pressure like a champ. Meanwhile, the descending trendline above is playing hard to get, keeping SHIB from going full Beyoncé on the charts. 🕶️💃
The project is also, and I am not making this up, “closing in on the $900,000 fundraising milestone.” They’ve clawed their way to $882,811, which places them tantalizingly close to a number that sounds important, like reaching the summit of a mountain that is mostly just a very large hill. The stated goal is $1.2 million, a sum that suggests they’re not just building a cryptocurrency, but a medium-sized municipal aquatics center.
Now, before you roll your eyes and accuse me of being dramatic, hear me out. As a macro strategist, my job is to look at the big picture-the tectonic shifts in industries, economies, and technologies-and figure out where the puck is going, not where it’s been. And right now, Microsoft is skating circles around everyone else.
DBS Bank, that most distinguished of institutions, has embarked upon a most remarkable endeavor, tokenizing structured notes upon the Ethereum blockchain, thereby granting eligible investors access through three digital platforms.
2030 is not a destination but a bureaucratic form to be filled out in triplicate, with each copy sent to a different department that no longer exists. The Bitcoin of that era, if it survives the quantum decryption apocalypse or the hard-fork schism, will be a pale shadow of its former self-yet the ETF will replicate it with the same zeal as a photocopy machine replicating a blank page.
Reuters, that sacred scroll of global news, proclaims this Delhi outpost a bridge between AI and India’s “IndiaAI Mission.” OpenAI, with the zeal of a monk and the budget of a king, vows to craft tools as simple as aloo paratha and cheaper than a street-side chai. Let us marvel at their hubris!
The question looms like a zeppelin over Silicon Valley: Could Uber one day sit alongside Apple, Microsoft, and Nvidia in that exclusive club of trillionaires? It is bold, audacious, almost poetic-an idea so intoxicating that only the most hardened skeptic could resist raising an eyebrow at its sheer audacity. And yet, we must explore how such a feat might occur-and what sacrifices Uber would need to make along the way.
