Picture this: a nearly three-hour public session where pro-crypto Senator Cynthia Lummis, with all the charm of a bulldog in a tutu, grilled Warsh about whether digital assets should be woven into the financial system like a particularly gaudy sweater. Her argument? They could give Americans more investment options and consumer protections-because who doesn’t want more choices when it comes to losing money?
In a twist more unexpected than finding a chocolate bar in your sock drawer, SoFi Technologies-a cheerful fintech from the U.S.-has decided to sprinkle some XRP magic onto its already vibrant crypto menu.

This gem of an episode premiered on Disney+ on April 14, cleverly titled “The Grand Design”-because when you’re running a crime syndicate, who doesn’t want a snazzy title?

In a proclamation that echoes the stern decrees of old, Coinbase has announced the suspension of these 25 perpetual futures. “To maintain high-quality derivatives markets,” they declare, as if the markets were a grand opera in need of a discerning audience. The announcement, shared on the digital town square of X, leaves no room for sentimentality. The remaining open positions, once vibrant with possibility, have been settled automatically-a cold, mechanical process that brooks no appeal.
Exchanges, they say, are as plentiful as fleas on a mangy dog. In 2025 alone, the crypto landscape sprouted more exchanges than a forest after a rain of fertilizer. Over 500, they claim! A veritable buffet of options, each more enticing than the last, leaving traders in a state of decision-induced paralysis. And amidst this chaos, HTX stands like a lighthouse in a storm, though one suspects the lighthouse might also be selling overpriced trinkets in its gift shop.
It appears that a growing band of European investors might just change banks faster than you can say “cryptocurrency,” according to the latest findings from our friends at Boerse Stuttgart Digital. This signals a rather cheeky shift in the retail finance scene across the continent!
