“The evolution,” say the sages of cybersecurity, “is rapid—so rapid that even the hackers might need a timetable to keep track.” They’ve loaded this beast with features so advanced they’d make a spy blush: overlay screens painting a false reality to snatch your PINs, covert screen recordings like ghostly paparazzi, applications that vanish the moment you try to open them, and keyloggers sneaky enough to make a spy jealous. All while you’re blissfully unaware—probably scrolling through memes, only to find your financial fortress breached. 😂

In the waning days of summer, August 1st—ah, what a day!—was marked by a flood of investor withdrawals from the once-glittering pools of Bitcoin ETFs. A staggering $812 million vanished, marking the second-largest daily hemorrhage in history. Fidelity’s darling, Bitcoin ETF (FBTC), alone saw its coffers shrink by a cool $331 million. Meanwhile, the Ethereum … Read more

Shocking reports reveal that the FDIC, in its infinite wisdom, waved a broad exemption flag, shrouding these letters—those cryptic whispers to banks—under the grand banner of “confidential records.” All so they could play hide-and-seek with the truth. Coinbase, not one to swallow that nonsense, has slammed the door shut on their stonewalling, demanding the courtroom serve as their spotlight.

This gentleman’s gift, a glittering Bitcoin bounty, was promptly turned into a hefty sum—956.8 million CZK, or roughly 45 million dollars, if you prefer your riches in green bunnies instead of golden coins. But here’s the kicker: the good folks in audit land found no evidence that anyone bothered to check where those shiny coins had been pried from in the first place. No sniff test, no sniff about, no indications that rules of governance took a holiday. A fine mess, indeed.

BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF, or as the cool kids call it, IBIT, has skyrocketed faster than a rocket-powered rollercoaster. Not just a small sprinkle on the crypto pie, no — we’re talking about a full-blown invasion of the neophytes. A staggering 75% of buyers, who apparently thought Bitcoin was a new type of cereal, had never even considered BlackRock before. Now they’re auditioning for the role of “most enthusiastic investor” in the Monopoly game of finance. 🎲

It dipped, naturally. For the fifth day running, a descent of 4% bringing it to $166.23, and now teetering where it is. Down 16% from Monday’s momentary ambition of $182. Spooked, they say, by America’s latest economic murmurings. As if the market truly cares for the plight of payrolls.

The UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has announced that starting October 8, 2025, brave retail investors can finally peek behind the crypto curtain and buy crypto exchange-traded notes (cETNs). Mind you, only the ones traded on approved UK exchanges, because the FCA loves to keep a close eye on the wild crypto beasts. 🦁

In a speech that could only be described as “inspired by optimism (or perhaps election cycles),” SEC Chair Paul Atkins stood before the America First Policy Institute and declared, “Let us reshore the crypto businesses that fled!” One might imagine him waving an invisible flag while a choir of angels sang in the background. Truly, this is the dawn of a new era—or so they say.

Meanwhile, the big players, those loveable sharks of the crypto sea, are doing their thing—taking profits faster than TikTok trends fade. Their big exit, a cool $335 million in just two minutes, has the market clutching its pearls and whispering, “This is fine.” Some folks think it’s just strategic, like a chess move; others see it as emotional retail traders sobbing into their keyboards because ETH’s mood swings are giving them whiplash. Regardless, it’s a rollercoaster—hold onto your virtual hats.

Meanwhile, HBAR’s price is wiggling around, fueled by volume and demand like a rollercoaster with a caffeine addiction, between $0.258 and $0.288. RSI and stochastic—those fancy charts—are hinting that HBAR might be setting the stage for a rocket, provided support levels don’t spontaneously vanish like last night’s leftovers.
