Once upon a time, South Korea was the Vegas of crypto speculation. The “Kimchi Premium” was a thing, and traders moved markets like they were auditioning for “Dancing with the Stars.” 🌟💃 But by late 2025, the crypto party is over, and everyone’s gone home – or, more accurately, to the stock market.
“Listen, I’m as clueless as a goy at a gefilte fish factory!” CZ told Fox News. “I never kibitzed with Trump, not even a ‘Mazel Tov’ on the pardon. And World Liberty Finance? Feh! I wouldn’t touch it with a ten-foot USB cable!” 💻🤷♂️
According to Wintermute, the algorithmic trading firm that’s apparently been reading the room correctly, crypto’s liquidity channels are slowing down, despite the fact that the broader economy is still feeling loose. Stablecoins took a bit of a hit this week-a reduction, the first in months-and that’s not the kind of news anyone wants to hear when they’re hoping for smooth sailing.
The disclosure marks the company’s largest confirmed allocation to date and places it among the biggest public-sector corporate holders of Bitcoin. Which is impressive if you ignore the fact that they’re still losing money like it’s going out of style. 🚨
Critics accuse Trump of using crypto for political gain, from the U.S. Crypto Strategic Reserve announcement that allegedly fueled a market pump, to the pardon of Binance founder CZ. A plot thicker than a Bitcoin block, served with a side of 🍔 politics.
It seems the plebeians, the little people, are flocking to this digital gold, while the titans, the leviathans of the market, are… quietly departing. A most unsettling premonition, wouldn’t you agree? 🤔
One cannot help but chuckle at the irony. The same institution that once dismissed Bitcoin as a “fraud” now clings to it like a socialite to a new fad. According to their 13F filing, this $343 million wager spans high-net-worth portfolios and institutional coffers alike. A strategic shift, they call it. Or, as the peasants might say, “clutching at digital straws.” 🌾📈
