ASTER: Shield Mode…Or Just More Losing? 🤯

🤑 Trump’s Bitcoin Baby Crashes 50% – But Hey, They’ve Got 5,098 BTC! 🚀💸

In the heart of Miami, where the sun gleams as brightly as the Trumps’ ambitions, American Bitcoin Corp. (Nasdaq: ABTC) stands as a monument to the absurdity of modern finance. Backed by the dynamic duo of Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, this Bitcoin mining and accumulation venture has amassed a treasure trove of 5,098 BTC as of December 17, 2025. A mix of in-house mining and strategic market purchases, they say-though some of it is shackled as collateral to Bitmain, the hardware overlord. 🛠️🔗

tag. The original title is “Crypto.com Partners With DMCC to Expand Blockchain Use in Commodity Markets”. To make it clickbaity and Tina Fey-style, maybe something like “Crypto & DMCC: Blockchain’s New BFFs or Just a Hype Marriage? 💍” – adding emojis and a question to pique curiosity. Next, the body needs humor and sarcasm. Let me go through each section: – The first paragraph: “That inefficiency has long been accepted as structural. Crypto.com and Dubai’s DMCC are now testing whether it has to be.” Maybe rephrase with a joke about why people accept inefficiency, like comparing it to wearing uncomfortable shoes. – Key Takeaways: Turn them into bullet points with sarcastic comments. For example, instead of “exploring blockchain-based infrastructure”, say “Because who doesn’t want to modernize commodity trading? Let’s just ignore the fact that paper trails are so 20th century.” – From Paper-Heavy Workflows…: Use a metaphor like comparing paper-heavy processes to a “paperweight on your productivity.” – Tokenisation as Infrastructure…: Add a joke about tokenization not being for retail but for serious business, maybe referencing how people think crypto is just for memes. – Building Capability…: Make a quip about training sessions being more exciting than watching paint dry. – Market Intelligence: Use a pun on “bet” and “gambler,” referencing Tina Fey’s famous “wagging finger” bit. – Shift in Strategy: Compare the company’s shift to a makeover, like changing from a party venue to a utility. Also, need to retain all images in their places, but since there are no images in the original, just ensure existing HTML structure is maintained. Avoid using tags and no color styles. Add emojis where appropriate without overdoing it. Check for the disclaimers at the end. Keep the educational purpose note but make it sound more humorous, maybe with a “not financial advice” joke. Ensure the title is only in the tag and not repeated in the body. Make sure the HTML is valid, using proper tags and structure. Avoid any markdown in the response, just HTML.End of Thought (18.65s) Crypto & DMCC: Blockchain’s New BFFs or Just a Hype Marriage? 💍

SEC Finally Gives Up on Aave After Four Years of 😉 Drama

On Tuesday, via an X post (never called Twitter again, obviously), Kulechov revealed an Aug. 12 letter from the SEC. The letter politely suggesting that they had better things to do than bother Aave anymore-specifically, that they “do not intend to recommend an enforcement action.” Basically, the SEC’s way of saying, “You’re free to go… unless we change our minds again, which is highly probable.”
