Breaking free from its usual melancholic routines, bitcoin has decided to rise during the U.S. session, climbing to $70,800 after having taken a brief nap just above $68,000 earlier in the day. It seems even cryptocurrencies need their beauty sleep!
Our friends at Bitmine Immersion Technologies revealed that they’re clutching 4,325,738 ETH. They picked these beauties up at an average price of $2,125 each, racking up a total cost basis that looks like a Monopoly money mistake at around $9.19 billion. Meanwhile, ETH is trading lower than a limbo champion, around $2,015, leading to a paper loss that could buy you a small fleet of Teslas!
But oh, the price! A whopping $78,815 per Bitcoin, fees and expenses included. One might say they’re paying through the nose, or perhaps through the entire face, for these digital trinkets. Their average cost basis now sits higher than a giraffe on a ladder, while the spot price of Bitcoin remains as stubborn as a mule in a mud puddle.
In a totally not dramatic announcement (because who announces anything dramatically these days?), Saylor reveals that Strategy (Nasdaq: MSTR) has added a whopping 1,142 BTC to its already impressive stash of 714,644 bitcoin. Talk about commitment! It’s like he’s in a long-term relationship with cryptocurrency, complete with emotional baggage.
Justin Sun’s outfit at Tron is increasing its exposure to TRX after this latest treasury purchase. Is it a bold move or just rearranging deck chairs on a very shiny boat? We may never know, but it’s being framed as steady, long-term value, not a sprint to the exits.
Ah, the once-glorious era of the ‘Crypto Bowl’ lies in the grave. Instead, a profound silence blankets the event. Just a few fleeting years ago, the Super Bowl was akin to a carnival of QR codes bouncing haphazardly across screens while celebrities boldly proclaimed that ‘fortune favors the brave.’ This year, however, one could hear a pin drop amidst the crickets chirping.
In a blog post by nick.eth, ENS recites the decision as a preservation of ENSv2’s charm-single-step registration, multi-chain asset purchases, and a redesigned registry-while trimming the arms of trust and centralization tangled to the burden of a dedicated L2, as if removing an unnecessary coat in a very public hallway.
But here’s the kicker: It’s not just about prices going up. It’s about the narrative shifting from “survive the winter” to “let’s build a summer house in the metaverse.” And when the liquidity train comes rolling in (thanks, Fed pivot and ETF inflows!), it’s not just going to splash into the same old meme coins. Nope. This time, it’s all about security-because what’s the point of a Lambo if your wallet gets quantum-hacked?
The FSS rolls out a spicy 2026 plan on February 9 to tighten cryptocurrency market oversight, aiming to stamp out high-risk trading that rattles the market like a chorus line of cymbals.
