And what’s a ticker symbol without a bit of intrigue? Behold, the BIXIU! Like the name of a spicy ramen order you’d whisper on the count of three. While our heroes haven’t chosen a company to merge with just yet, they’re looking to court young upstarts in the shiny realms of digital assets, Web3 technologies, and those blockchain-based innovations that sound like they were dreamed up by the ghost of Alan Turing. 💻✨

Julio Moreno, a man burdened with the task of quantifying this madness at CryptoQuant, declares it a “significant source of investor exposure.” Exposure! As if one is exposed to a contagious disease of enthusiasm. He speaks of volumes, reaching – brace yourselves – $5 billion to $10 billion on “active days.” Such numbers… They feel less like financial metrics and more like the counting of souls being slowly drawn into the digital abyss. 💀
