In a recent X post-yes, the platform formerly known as Twitter, where wits gather to exchange bon mots and charts-analyst Cas Abbé (a name that rolls off the tongue like a vintage claret) shared a corker of a chart. Lo and behold, Binance Coin has broken out above the $860 mark, setting a new all-time high at $880.

The European Central Bank, that venerable institution, hath long mused upon the creation of a digital euro, a central bank-backed payment method as cash fades into oblivion. According to the Financial Times, EU officials, with their brows furrowed in existential dread, fear that the U.S. law shall elevate the dominance of dollar-denominated tokens, necessitating a digital euro to preserve the euro’s place in the grand tapestry of global commerce. While the ECB, that paragon of deliberation, contemplates myriad technologies-centralized, decentralized, and otherwise-no decision hath been reached, for what is life without a little uncertainty? 🧠
