qfx One wallet, connected to FalconX inflows, has been acquiring Bitcoin with a scheme most deliberate 😉. Yesterday alone, it swallowed 300 BTC ($34.71M), bringing its monthly haul to 1,521 BTC ($176.27M).

The 4-hour frame exposes a preposterous bull flag, not unlike a contraption devised by a sleep-deprived inventor. The bulls attempt one escapade up and numerous deceiving dips downward, yet, alas, they mercifully find themselves in a sideways frenzy.

Word has drifted, carried on the whispers of the news-writers, that the Financial Services Commission (FSC), that venerable body charged with safeguarding the nation’s coffers, intends to unveil a set of rules governing these won-pegged stablecoins. Within two months, they say. One suspects, however, that “two months” is a fluid concept, much like the value of these very tokens they seek to control. 😮
Raydium [RAY] tried slipping about 10% in the past 24 hours, giving the $3.28 support zone the kind of test usually reserved for poorly designed bridges.
SEI, once languishing at $0.32, now dangles at $0.32 after a 5% nosedive. Analysts, ever the optimists, scrutinize the price with the intensity of a man searching for his lost sock.

This did establish a temporary respite near $3.00.
