But wait, here’s the twist—beyond its unpredictable price tantrums, Shiba Inu is changing its stripes. Think of it as a meme that’s decided to grow up and get a proper job. Turns out, a shocking 80% of all SHIB is now hoarded by long-term investors, those noble souls holding onto their tokens for over a year, rather like Grandma clinging to her retirement savings—slow and steady. This data from IntoTheBlock reveals that, despite the wild price swings, the number of long-term holders is actually increasing. Who knew that people could be patient? Less trading chaos means fewer sudden dumps, and that’s a good thing, like a peace treaty in the wild west of crypto. Less volatility, less drama—who knew stability could be so dull and yet so comforting?

If you’re a BBVA customer now, congratulations! You can buy and sell crypto right inside your mobile app. No more sketchy websites, no more calling that cousin who “knows a guy.” You just tap a few buttons and voilà—digital coins. Next thing you know, your grandfather’s trading Dogecoin instead of checking his retirement account.

On the 29th of July, the SEC, in a moment of uncharacteristic generosity, granted permission for in-kind creations and redemptions for spot crypto ETPs (exchange-traded products). How thrilling! 🎉

Just last week, in a scene reminiscent of a farcical play, Trump graced the Fed with his presence, questioning Chairman Jerome Powell about the extravagant renovations that seem to have spiraled out of control. “Why, dear Jerome, are we spending so much?” he might as well have exclaimed, while simultaneously reiterating his fervent calls for the FOMC to cut rates. A cut, he believes, would not only benefit Bitcoin and its cryptocurrency brethren but also breathe life into the languishing equities, igniting the flames of economic activity across the land. 💸

Let’s talk numbers, because who doesn’t love a good financial drama? Long position traders got slapped hard, losing a whopping $651,250! It’s like watching your favorite character in an action movie get tossed out of a window—suspenseful, shocking, yet somehow incredibly satisfying. 💰💣

According to Lookonchain (because apparently, we need analysts now), two wallets that were part of Pump.fun’s presale are making moves. One wallet dumped 17 billion coins over seven days—that’s enough zeros to make even Jeff Bezos jealous. Another sold all 12.5 billion of its stash. Seriously, these guys are treating their crypto like last season’s leftovers at Thanksgiving dinner. 🦃

In a recent declaration to his army of 1.3 million followers on X, Becker suavely pointed out that the grand ascent of altcoins — you know, the one we’re all dreaming about while staring at charts — is just a twinkle in the distant crypto future. According to his crystal ball, the real fireworks don’t commence until Ethereum (ETH) dares to soar past the $5,000 mark, after which the top coins might *perhaps* double, triple, or even 80x—just enough for your mother to finally notice your new ‘investment’.

So, come July at that Ethereum show on the stage, Livestakes strutted into the spotlight as a betting platform that could, folks say, fatten up hackathon winners’ pockets. Ain’t that just like us humans to turn playfulness into profits? And Ziz, that mysterious sage of the site, explains how their contraption scoops up bettors’ money and stows it away in a shiny new prize pool—larger even than the main event itself.

O, noble readers, behold! The land of Pakistan, that ancient cradle of civilization, now doth permit its banks and financial institutions to barter and trade in the mysterious substance known as Bitcoin, in a grand endeavor to hasten the adoption of this digital alchemy! The State Bank of Pakistan, that venerable guardian of fiscal order, shall bestow licenses under the hallowed Virtual Assets Act, 2025, thereby forging a regulatory framework as intricate as the tales of yore. This policy, oh ye seekers of progress, aims to modernize the financial system, to illuminate the shadows of transactions, and to grant access to digital assets, as if bestowing the gift of fire upon the masses. Yet, lo! Despite the tempestuous nature of Bitcoin, which doth sway like a pendulum of chaos, the officials, with a nod to wisdom, speak of regulatory oversight and pilot CBDC programs, as though they were sages guiding a caravan through the desert of uncertainty. Thus, Pakistan, with its head held high, strides toward the lofty goal of becoming a regional titan of digital finance, even as the world watches, both in awe and in skepticism. 🧠💰🌀
