This glaring gap between what AI can do and what we wish it could do is where blockchain sashays onto the stage like it owns the place. Yes, blockchain-the same technology that gave us crypto bros and NFT cat pictures 🐱-might just be the missing link in AI’s quest for something resembling consciousness. Or at least, that’s the pitch.

And lo, the recent pullback coincides with the arrival of giants in Spark’s realm. Since August, large holders have been hoarding SPK like treasure. One entity, with 1.15M ETH (a sum of $79 million), poured into Spark’s DeFi infrastructure-like a dragon guarding its gold. 🐉

This token, $T6900, strips away the pretense of utility. It promises nothing, delivers less, and yet, in its naked honesty, it reveals more than the charts and indexes ever could. 📉🤡

According to data from crypto.news (the galactic authority on all things pixelated and profitable), DIA soared 29% to an intraday high of $0.84 on Tuesday, Aug. 26, during Asian time. Because, of course, all the best crypto action happens when the rest of the world is asleep. 🌏💤 It then settled at $0.76, which is still 18.7% down from its glory days. But hey, it’s a rally, so let’s pop the champagne… or at least the space soda. 🥂🚀

This…development, shall we say, has stirred a peculiar excitement amongst those who spend their days staring at charts and muttering about “market turning points.” It’s a signal, they proclaim, one of those rare occurrences traders await with the patience of a saint…or, more accurately, the desperation of a gambler.

Peering ahead with the shifty optimism of a day trader, September promises to be a blockbuster for those who like their crypto regulation with a twist of existential absurdity. Just imagine: two more bills barreling toward approval, and all sorts of regulatory hijinks on the horizon. 🍿

But while the masses shiver in fear, Tom Lee, the prophet of Fundstrat, whispers, “The bottom is near!” Just as ETH leaps from $4,313 to $4,430, a flicker of hope ignites. A spark in the darkness? Or just a mirage? 🌌⚡

And while the fickle Mr. Market has seen fit to bestow a slight correction-a necessary chastening for the more exuberant speculators, one supposes-the true narrative is not found in the price, but upon the blockchain itself, where the fundamentals are conducting a most lively quadrille.

On Aug. 25, World Liberty Financial declared the USD1 Points Program live, partnering with Gate.io to offer “incentives” to stablecoin holders. A bold statement, perhaps, given that holding stablecoins is already akin to keeping your money in a digital piggy bank. The program’s goal? To transform USD1 from a mere transactional asset into a bustling hub of activity, where users earn points for trading, holding, and “engaging in related activities”-a euphemism that makes one suspect the activities in question involve excessive caffeine and questionable life choices.

Cook, a Biden appointee, had been reconfirmed in 2023 for a term stretching into the distant future-January 31, 2038, to be precise. As a member of the Board of Governors, she wielded a permanent vote on the FOMC, a position akin to holding a golden ticket in a world of economic chocolate. But as the news rippled through Asia and Europe, Bitcoin, that capricious creature, took a tumble alongside a wobbly dollar and a US rates curve that seemed to be doing the cha-cha. At the time of writing, BTC was trading around $110,137, down a cheeky 2.4% after flirting with an intraday low of $108,666. Oh, the irony! 😱
