Putin, Prison Camps, & 80,000 Bitcoins: The Bleak Comedy of Crypto Fate

Hayes, that grizzled prophet of profit—if only Mother Russia had fewer prophets and more potatoes—utters his warning beneath fluorescent office lights, not prison moonlight. Mark my words, he says. When the orange czar Trump signs his “Big Beautiful Bill,” Bitcoin shall stumble, face-first, into the snow. The U.S. Treasury will borrow with appetite unmatched since GULAG soup lines; liquidity will dry like the Volga in July. Oh, but do not weep for Bitcoin, comrades! After licking its wounds at $90,000—just a mere pittance, hardly worth a ration card—it shall rise, fueled by hope and perhaps a little vodka. Hayes chuckles: The government has a taste for stablecoins—not for commerce, mind you, but to paper over the vast black pit of U.S. debt. 🤡

BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF Rakes in More Cash Than Its S&P 500 Giant—Wait, What?

IBIT is a slick, user-friendly ticket to the Bitcoin circus, but it brings the same amount of drama—price action all day, all night, and an inviting risk of regulatory curveballs. IVV, by comparison, is the sensible friend who calls a cab at midnight. Investors need to decide if they’re after thrill rides—or the reliable hum of the equity market’s grand old engine. The only sure thing: cryptocurrencies are having their moment in the sun, and, for once, it’s not just because something broke.

Crypto Miracle: One Token to Rule Them All?

While most altcoins were busy taking a nosedive amid Bitcoin’s slip from its lofty highs of $110k on Friday, Humanity’s native token was busy mooning, much to the delight of its holders 🚀.

Dogecoin’s Artificial Prophecy: Will a Machine Predict Millionaire Memes?

An algorithm — forged not in a gulag, but perhaps deserving of one — prophesies a 17% rise for the meme coin within a mere thirty days. The way is supposedly clear for DOGE to hurl itself to $0.2 by the first week of August. Perhaps next month will be a harvest, with peasants everywhere rallying their rickety portfolios as another coin, utterly serious in its unseriousness, reaches for $0.21. Or perhaps it’s just another hallucination induced by the fumes of speculation.
