According to the ledger and the coffee-stained charts, the asset has fallen 41% in three weeks, and in the last twenty-four hours another 10% has vanished, as if the town’s coins decided to slip away in the rain. 😌
He’s like a lone voice in a noisy room full of people arguing over who gets the last slice of pizza-a rather unsavory comparison to the European Union, who are already tossing around tokenized stocks like they’re confetti at a parade. 🎉
Behold, the exchange netflow-a metric both cruel and indifferent-rises like a specter from the crypt, whispering of tokens abandoned, of fortunes surrendered to the void. Traders, in their infinite wisdom, have sold not with malice, but with the resigned sigh of a man handing over his last coin to a beggar. And yet, in this grim ballet of supply and demand, the netflow swells, a grotesque parody of bullish ambition. For what is this surge but the prelude to a deeper plunge? A siren’s song luring the unwary into the maw of the abyss. 🐙
After a three-day winning streak that made it look like Bitcoin was on a sugar high, it suddenly decided to take a nap on Thursday, peaking just above $97,000. Even Trump’s dramatic Insurrection Act threat-which, let’s be honest, was more soap opera than policy move-couldn’t jolt it awake. 🥱 Meanwhile, the DOJ’s subpoena of the Fed last time had Bitcoin rallying like it was Black Friday. This time? Crickets. 🦗

Apparently, all it takes is a little corporate-level culling to bring back the golden age of genuine tweets. Who knew? 🤷♂️
Only a week past its notable success in the United Kingdom, where it was granted a full EMI license and Cryptoasset Registration, Ripple now finds itself firmly ensconced in both the UK and Luxembourg-two jewels amongst European financial crowns!
A Trio of Temptation 🤔
Bloomberg’s Eric Balchunas, that sharp-eyed scribe of the market’s more absurd antics, notes this semantic shift is no accident. “Crypto” has the social grace of a rogue algorithm, while “digital assets” smells faintly of lavender and institutional approval. A slide deck for a fund manager now glows with the sheen of respectability. How modern! 🧼
EGRAG CRYPTO reports that Bitcoin is currently experiencing a period of consolidation near the bottom of its upward trend. While the overall trend is still intact, they note that selling pressure is increasing.
London Stock Exchange Group has launched a new digital settlement platform. The platform allows for a continuous settlement with 🧾 tokenized 🏦 commercial bank deposits, cross-currency, and cross-jurisdictional. 🌍
