Under the freshly minted UNIfication doctrine, this mechanism is the first of its kind. If the council nods in approval, it may well rewrite how Uniswap scoops and consumes UNI across realms.
The UAE’s Bitcoin stash is so big, it’s practically a second palace. Arkham’s data reveals they’ve mined 6,782 BTC-enough to buy a small island, if islands were made of cryptocurrency.
Here we find Bitcoin, lingering like a house guest who’s overstayed their welcome, tethered tightly around $66,000 after several attempts to reclaim the glorious $70,000 fizzled out faster than a soda left open too long. Traders are keenly observing two nearby “magnets”: the overhead liquidation liquidity between $69,000 and $72,000, and that CME gap around the mid-$65,000s, which seems to have more gravitational pull than a black hole.

The event, hosted by none other than Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump through their illustrious World Liberty Financial, attracted the likes of Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon, Nasdaq’s own Adena Friedman, CFTC Chairman Michael Selig, and yes, even Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong. To top it off, FIFA President Gianni Infantino made an appearance alongside the vibrant Nicki Minaj, proving that in this world, anything can happen!
Deutsche Bank, ever the trendsetter, will now use Ripple’s technology to “modernize” cross-border payments. A feat akin to teaching a tortoise to sprint-impressive, but one wonders why they didn’t just buy a faster turtle.
In case you missed it, the cryptocurrency market sentiment took a nosedive this week as geopolitical tensions in the Middle East ramped up. Iran’s latest military shenanigans had us all on the edge of our seats, as they momentarily closed off the Strait of Hormuz. Can you say “dramatic flair”?
ETH is currently looking as sad as a penguin in a sauna, down 33% this year. But hey, at least the protocol is getting a facelift. The big question: Will these technical tweaks make ETH’s price dance like a caffeinated ballerina, or will it just sit there, judging everyone?
