🚀 BNB Soars to the Moon While Crypto Market Faceplants! 🌕💸

In a universe where logic is as rare as a polite Vogon, Binance’s BNB token has defied gravity (and common sense) by rocketing to a new all-time high of $1,370. 🌟 Meanwhile, the rest of the crypto market was busy tripping over its own shoelaces, losing nearly $20 billion in a weekend of liquidations that would make a black hole blush. 🕳️💸

According to the ever-reliable CoinMarketCap (or as we like to call it, the “Galactic Ledger of Random Numbers”), BNB’s rebound was so strong it could probably bench-press a small moon. But not everyone is popping champagne corks. Binance users were less than thrilled, accusing the exchange of throwing a wrench into the works during the crash. 🛠️🔥

Crypto Chaos Ensues

“I’m done with Binance,” declared crypto trader SleeperShadow in a dramatic X post, presumably while dramatically throwing their laptop out the window. “They shut down their system during the crash, leaving me stuck in futures positions like a space probe in a gravity well.” 🚀🤦‍♂️

Binance co-founder Yi He, however, was having none of it. “False allegations!” they cried, pointing to the vast, uncaring void of the market as the true culprit. “Our systems were as stable as a marble statue in a tornado,” they added, though users might argue it felt more like a tornado made of marbles. 🌪️🗿

To make amends, Binance tossed $283 million at affected users, which is roughly the cost of a decent spaceship in this economy. 🚀💰

CEXs: The Galactic Accountants of Suspicion

Meanwhile, in a plot twist worthy of a Douglas Adams novel, Hyperliquid founder Jeff Yan accused centralized exchanges (CEXs) of underreporting liquidations. “They’re like Vogons filing tax returns,” Yan quipped. “Thousands of liquidations happen in a second, but they only report one. It’s like saying you only ate one Pringle.” 🥔📉

Underreporting Shenanigans

Wintermute: The Crypto Market’s Mysterious Movers

Adding to the chaos, Wintermute transferred $700 million in Bitcoin to Binance just before the crash. “Coincidence?” asked crypto analyst Merlijn The Trader. “Or did they press the self-destruct button on the market? Either way, it’s not a great look.” 💣💸

Wintermute’s Big Move

Wintermute founder Evgeny Gaevoy, however, blamed the crash on “TradFi events” like DeepSeek and Trump’s tariffs. “It’s always the traditional finance guys,” they sighed. “Can’t we just blame the Vogons and call it a day?” 🦎👽

So there you have it, folks. BNB is soaring, the market is faceplanting, and everyone’s pointing fingers like it’s a galactic blame game. Strap in, because this ride is just getting started. 🚀🎢
