Meanwhile, the cryptocurrency market, like a tragic actor, loses its stride after a promising start. Volatility reigns, altcoins wail in despair, and gains vanish like a fleeting dream. 🤡

Stani Kulechov(@StaniKulechov), the founder of @Aave, bought 32,660 $AAVE($5.15M) at $158 again 7 hours ago. 🧑‍⚖️

Why this sudden plunge into the crypto abyss? Oh, just a casual $28.5 billion worth of Bitcoin and Ethereum options expiring on Deribit this week. No biggie-just the largest options expiry in the exchange’s history! That’s like throwing a massive party and realizing half the guests are already drunk and crying in the corner. 😱🍷

Strategy (MSTR), the titan of Bitcoin holdings, has fortified its coffers to $2.2 billion. A two-and-a-half-year shield against dividend doom, and a buffer for the inevitable “Bitcoin Winter” (because why not invite the cold? ❄️).

In the grand tradition of making life simpler (and possibly more confusing), Starstream allows developers to craft a single smart contract-a cheeky little program that behaves like a mini-blockchain-so it can hop from one blockchain party to another. This eliminates the tiresome ritual of rebuilding these contracts each time you want to change venues. After all, nobody likes lugging heavy furniture around when they can just borrow a sofa instead! 🛋️

Alas, despite valiant efforts, Bitcoin-our most illustrious coin-persisted in its unyielding attempt to reclaim the hallowed threshold of ninety thousand dollars, only to be met with a most mortifying retreat-an illustration of hubris and hubris alone. It rose, briefly, to the respectable sum of fifty-six dollars and thirty-six cents above this figure, in a display of pretentious bravado, before succumbing to the cruel realities and retracing its steps by almost two and a half percent.

Bitcoin recently staged a dramatic sprint toward the $90,500 resistance level, only to collapse like a soufflé in a hurricane. Momentum? More like a dying flashlight battery. But hey, corrections are normal! They’re the financial equivalent of taking a nap before a marathon. Except, you know, if the nap turns into a coma.

Justin Sun, TRON’s poster boy, is now the star of this crypto soap opera, tangled up in a messy fight with WLFI-an American-flavored DeFi project tied to Donald Trump and his dynasty. 🎬🇺🇸

Alas, this marks the first significant retreat in four weeks for those ever-so-optimistic digital asset investment products, which are now feeling the sting of outflows like a spurned lover. 💔

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), in a rather commendable display of vigilance, has brought charges against seven entities, including three so-called crypto asset trading platforms and four dubious investment clubs, alleging that they have engaged in the most sophisticated of schemes to defraud retail investors of an impressive sum exceeding $14 million.
