Ah, that spike! It wasn’t merely an anomaly, dear readers, but rather the glorious culmination of a long-winded strategy – a strategy in which the Islamic Republic has painstakingly crafted one of the globe’s most intricate crypto ecosystems, not out of a thirst for innovation, but rather out of sheer survival instinct.
As the price of our favorite digital coin took a nosedive, it appears that the institutional interest in spot Bitcoin ETFs has taken a leisurely stroll away from the party.
