In a Manhattan courtroom Monday, Kalshi’s complaint declared, “You can’t boss us about-we’re under the CFTC’s loving gaze!” Cue the eye-roll. 🐰 (Who knew jumping through federal regulatory hoops could be so… exhausting?)
This ‘BIP’, as they call it-an abbreviation, it seems, for a lengthier and no doubt tedious document-authored by one Dathon Ohm (a name which, one cannot help but note, evokes a sense of… Ohm-inousness) proposes a temporary curtailment of the data which may be affixed to each transaction. It is a limitation born of the recent loosening of constraints, a loosening which, it appears, has opened the floodgates to…well, one shudders to think. The document, found at a place called this online repository, speaks of “Reduced Data Temporary Soft fork,” a phrase as unwieldy as a peasant’s cart laden with turnips.
Is this our entry into a new prosperous epoch, or is it merely the opening curtain to another melodramatic bubble?
Yes, Booking.com confirmed the whole thing. They’re looking into it, but let’s be honest-how many scams like this are we really going to tolerate before we start believing “this is fine”?
The push comes as Canada faces mounting pressure to keep pace with global stablecoin regulation, particularly after the United States passed comprehensive stablecoin legislation earlier this year. Without clear rules, Canadian officials worry that investors will increasingly turn to U.S.-based stablecoins, sending money and financial data south of the border. How… convenient for the Americans. 😏
In a post that could either be prophetic or delusional, Crypto GEMs declared, “#XLM going to +$2 this cycle,” igniting a flurry of comments from traders who either believe in miracles or have too much caffeine. Supported by a snapshot of market data (because nothing says “trust me” like a graph), this bold claim has the altcoin community buzzing like bees at a honey pot. 🐝
Sentiment stays positive, but price discovery hinges on how risk assets trade this week. Spoiler: They’ll probably crash. 💸
So, Miami-based American Bitcoin Corp. (trading as ABTC)-which, by the way, is not just another tech startup but one with some serious Trump-family backing-has been building the foundation for America’s very own Bitcoin infrastructure. The company has just secured even more BTC through mining and some strategic purchases, and guess what? Some of them are even pledged under an agreement with Bitmain. 💼💥
In a delightful thread posted to X, the oracle known as The Kobeissi Letter presented staggering figures that would make anyone’s head spin, even without the aid of vodka. It proclaimed that the U.S. now boasts an impressive 5,426 data centers-more than all the rest of the world’s major players combined. Now that’s what I call a robust collection of refrigerator-sized computer boxes! 😅
