Gold’s Funeral March?

This hullabaloo follows the rediscovery of Psyche 16, an asteroid rumored to harbor a veritable El Dorado of gold, valued at a staggering $700 quintillion. One can almost hear the sound of goldbugs quaking in their boots. Meanwhile, that enfant terrible, Elon Musk, has thrown his considerable weight behind Bitcoin, sending the market into paroxysms of excitement. 🚀

XRP’s Legal Drama: Power, Intrigue, and a Dash of Monetary Mischief

Jesse, ever the cynic (and who can blame him in today’s financial theatre?), contends that the lawsuit enveloping Ripple has precious little to do with the dreary business of regulation.

Cue dramatic economic music. 🎻
