And if that weren’t enough, they’re changing their name to Cypherpunk Technologies-sounds like a secret society, or a fancy new cocktail-and will start trading as CYPH come Thursday, assuming the stock market doesn’t throw a fit.
During their annual Quantum Developer Conference in New York, which must have felt like a gathering of scientists, magicians, and hopeful dreamers, IBM laid out their plans to achieve quantum advantage by 2026. In other words-solve problems faster than a supercomputer playing chess after a few drinks! And by 2029, they aim for fault-tolerant systems-because not even the brightest minds want their quantum computers throwing tantrums. 🎭
On the digital soapbox, he proclaimed that native assets-namely XRP-are guarded by their very own fortress: the blockchain itself. Because, of course, if no copy exists elsewhere, no thief (or hacker with a taste for digital loot) can simply pluck XRP and scamper off into the sunset. No extranet, no external villain can steal what isn’t duplicated-a neat little trick of the digital trade. Imagine that, a security built right into the very fabric of the ledger! 🛡️
The price is snug in a range so tight, it’s like a turtle in a shell. Analysts say this zone could be the next breakout, but I reckon they’re just as confused as the rest of us. 🤷♂️
This isn’t just a Coinbase thing, by the way. It’s a whole trend. Companies everywhere are like, “Sorry Delaware, we’re seeing other states.” Move over, Delaware-hello Texas! 🏢➡️🌵
In a recent X post (yes, the platform formerly known as Twitter, but let’s not get into that), BeInCrypto spilled the tea: Stellar, like a true underdog, lost its groove after a mid-summer fling with the moon. But here’s the kicker-while EMAs are flatter than a pancake at a vegan brunch, XLM is forming a higher low like it’s got a secret stash of rocket fuel. 🚀 Meanwhile, the USDT.D chart is like, “Lower high? More like lower my expectations.” 😏
Why Polymarket, you ask? Oh, just because it’s the most accessible, highest-volume prediction market out there. Running on Polygon (yes, the blockchain, not the shape) and using USDC as its betting currency, it’s like the Vegas strip for crypto nerds. 🎰 And let’s be honest, who doesn’t love a good gamble, especially when it’s on something as thrilling as “Will the government shutdown end today?” Spoiler: it probably won’t. 🤷♂️
Imagine, if you will, a check-a relic of a bygone era-resurrected in the digital realm, valid for five years, a veritable eternity in the crypto cosmos. The sender, with a flourish, selects the amount and currency, while the receiver, with a mere whisper of their wallet details, claims their bounty. Simplicity itself, or so they claim. But is it not all a game of mirrors and smoke? 🕰️
Aave’s on-chain metrics are flexing harder than a bodybuilder on steroids. Weekly revenue is crossing $3 million like it’s a casual stroll, and total deposits have somehow managed to cross $56 billion. Can you imagine? Yet, the price is still chilling 66% below its 2021 all-time high. It’s like that one friend who refuses to stop talking about how much money they made, but refuses to update their wardrobe. Honestly, AAVE could do with a little wardrobe change. ✨
