After a long period of fear, investor feelings about cryptocurrencies are starting to improve. The CoinMarketCap Crypto Fear and Greed Index recently moved to a “neutral” position, which hasn’t happened since October.
Move over, Wall Street-DeFi just hit a milestone that’ll make your stock tickers spin! 🎉 Data shows Ethereum powered $8 trillion in stablecoin transfers last quarter. That’s more money than most of us can count, and it’s all happening on-chain! 🌐
Now, get this: the top 10 wallets (mostly crypto exchanges because, you know, who doesn’t love a good crypto party?) are hoarding nearly 63% of the supply. The biggest wallet is practically a minor celebrity, holding around 41% of Shiba Inu-worth more than $3.3 billion. Yes, you read that right! That’s enough to fund my entire dream of opening a bakery specializing in dog-shaped cupcakes. 🍰🐶
Imagine, if you will, that a staggering 3% of Bitcoin’s total supply could be effectively rendered inert without so much as a market transaction. It’s like attempting to buy a beloved family heirloom only to discover it is already mortgaged to the hilt!
At present, the fabric of such a setup, it appears, is unmistakably woven.
If you’ve got the nerve (and the portfolio), you might just dance through this week’s headlines like Fred Astaire on a bull run. Or, more likely, stumble like a drunk debutante at a gala. 🥂
Scammers defrauded Americans of more than $333 million through Bitcoin ATM schemes between January and November 2025, according to data released by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. 🐍💰 The FBI says these scams are “not slowing down” – which is a bit of an understatement, really.
They start with a “MetaMask Support” email that screams, “2FA?! It’s coming to a inbox near YOU!” It has branding so perfectly agonizing to look at and a deadline so urgent it makes me rethink why I ever trusted an email from a company named after a cryptocurrency wallet. But hey, trust is like crypto-gone in 0.0001 seconds 😂.
Picture this: silver, that forgettable little cousin of gold, now struts its stuff 24/7 on the markets-fractional, global, and oh-so-convenient. It’s like silver on steroids, only less hairy and more shiny. The infrastructure isn’t just a work in progress; it’s practically a circus ready to perform! 🎪
Blockchain security firm SlowMist is like, “Hey, we found a potential critical vulnerability on your platform, HitBTC. You might wanna get back to us before someone’s crypto turns into Monopoly money.” 💸 But HitBTC? Crickets. 🦗 Meanwhile, the whole crypto world is like, “Popcorn, anyone?” 🍿
