In the official guff spouted from their lofty perches, the two entities vow to harness their idiosyncratic charms-whatever they may be-to concoct novel apparitions in the marketplace, and to tinker with contraptions that marry cashless trifles with digital baubles. It’s all frightfully synergistic, or so they claim, in a world where synergy seems to entail little more than slapping labels on each other and calling it progress. 🤑

According to Arthur Hayes, Bitcoin is quite unlikely to experience the dreaded bear market in the near future. Why? Because the warm and fuzzy monetary conditions of the moment are expected to persist, rendering the classic four-year halving cycle completely and utterly obsolete. Hooray for that, right?

Oh, what a tangle of bewilderment we find ourselves in, dear reader! The FOMC Minutes, that most solemn of documents, have revealed that a majority of Federal Reserve officials believe it would be “appropriate” to ease monetary policy further this year. One might almost think they’re hosting a tea party with a side of economic jargon. A few dissenters, however, hinted they might have preferred to keep rates steady in September, perhaps due to a sudden craving for stability-or perhaps they simply forgot their own policy. And lo! Some participants questioned whether the current policy is “truly restrictive,” which sounds suspiciously like a polite way of saying, “We’re all confused, but let’s pretend we’re not.” A delightful ballet of indecision, wouldn’t you say? 🤷♂️

Square, the payments processor owned by Jack Dorsey’s Block Inc., has unveiled a new feature that allows local businesses to accept Bitcoin at the point of sale. Merchants can now hoard this digital gold in an integrated wallet on Square’s platform. This groundbreaking initiative, announced on Wednesday, is a monumental leap in Bitcoin’s journey to becoming as mainstream as avocado toast. 🥑📈

In a world where traditional investing feels like a dull, predictable movie, Graniteshares is here to spice things up with its plan to launch eight leveraged and inverse exchange-traded funds (ETFs). They’re not just dabbling in crypto – they’re going all-in with 3x Daily Long and Short ETFs for XRP, Bitcoin, Ether, and Solana. Talk about betting on the underdog! 🏆

On the evening of October 1, SimpleSwap hosted an electrifying soirée during Token2049 at Moon Rooftop Bar & Lounge, Singapore. The storm outside was nothing short of biblical-rain fell like the heavens had just had enough, and thunder echoed as though Zeus himself had decided to join the party. But inside? The energy was electric. Over 1,200 requests flooded in, and the venue was packed with representatives from Ledger, KuCoin, OKX, Cointelegraph, Trust Wallet, Tangem, and many others-BeInCrypto, naturally, being the official media partner. As the rain poured down, so did the ideas, over food, drinks, and two insightful panels that went on into the late hours of the night.

Falling Open Interest and lower network participation show fading confidence-akin to an audience walking out mid-performance. Could this lead to another downward move? Quelle horreur!

Old TON’s price is currently lounging around $2.77, having taken a 2-3% dip, much like a fellow who’s had one too many at the Drones Club. This minor setback aligns with the broader crypto market’s 2.3% correction, no doubt spurred by those pesky U.S. Treasury auctions and a sudden craving for safer assets. But fear not! This fleeting pullback is about as threatening as a wet sponge in a custard pie fight. Toncoin’s upward trajectory remains as steady as a butler’s hand pouring the morning tea. ☕

Square, the payments arm of Block (XYZ), unveils a merry troupe of tools designed to make bitcoin as easy to handle as a ready-to-wear cloak, letting sellers accept crypto and mind their assets beside traditional ledgers. 🧵💳

Let us pause for a moment to consider the gravitas of this venture. According to a press release (because, of course, they would), the Roughrider Coin is set to launch in 2026. Banks and credit unions in North Dakota will be able to use it to engage in transactions, probably with the same enthusiasm as one would use an umbrella in a hailstorm. And who could forget the high-tech partnership with Fiserv, a payments company that managed an impressive $35 billion in merchant transactions last year? It’s almost as if they’ve combined the power of a solid state bank and a digital giant to create something… memorable.
