The Ohio site includes 195 acres of land with secured capacity from AEP Ohio, a utility provider serving nearly 1.5 million customers across the state. All utility agreements and interconnection approvals are already in place, positioning the facility to energize in the fourth quarter of 2027. 🚀
Oh, how the digital darling has fallen! Bitcoin, once the belle of the speculative ball, has left investors grumbling like soggy cereal this year. While Gold strutted its stuff and the Nasdaq 100 flexed its tech muscles, Bitcoin hid under the couch cushions. 😴
On Monday, the managing partner, Andrei “Goldfinger” Grachev-just kidding, but he could be-announced they settled a single 25-kilogram gold bar. That’s right, a literal bar of gold-probably worth a small fortune, or at least enough to buy a yacht or two. Plans? Oh, just scaling up to silver, platinum, and yes-cotton. Because who doesn’t want to trade fluffy stuff in a world obsessed with shiny, heavy metals, right? 😎
It is reported that JPMorgan, that paragon of Wall Street, intends to offer crypto trading to its esteemed institutional clients. A move that may reshape the competitive landscape, though not necessarily at the expense of its rivals. One might say it is a dance of mutual benefit, though with a dash of rivalry. 🕺
Erebor’s latest round values the digital-first bank at $4.35 billion post-money-a staggering figure for a bank that hasn’t even opened a door, let alone a checking account. Axios notes the round was “discreet,” which is just a fancy way of saying “no one wanted to draw attention until the gold hit the vault.” Capital, it seems, is racing to build the next generation of compliant, tech-forward banking infrastructure-because nothing says “compliance” like a $350 million raise.
Our intrepid e-commerce developer embarked upon this grand SOL DAT strategy back in the halcyon days of January. Since then, they’ve gallantly amassed an impressive hoard of 2.03 million SOL tokens, valued at a modest $254 million in today’s bustling market. Most of this treasure was spirited away during the ever-dramatic second half of 2025. 🏴☠️
In his latest mystical scrolls and prophetic charts, McGlone points to the Bitcoin-gold cross hanging around a neat 20x as of December 22nd. He tells us, with all the subtlety of a steam engine, that the risk balance looks rather grim. Basically, he’s asserting that rather than soaring to 30x, Bitcoin might quite literally halve its charm, falling to a mere 10x by the year 2026. A true “woe is me” prophecy.
The share of stablecoins in decentralized, and in traditional finance to some extent, is growing rapidly. Noting this shift, a new empirical analysis reveals significant growth in real-world stablecoin payments on Ethereum, with business-to-business (B2B) transactions witnessing a spike of over 156% this year. 🚀📉
The Core Team, ever the optimists, unveiled two announcements last week. First, they rebranded their testnet DEX and AMM with a grandiose pivot to PI-denominated liquidity pairs-a move that mirrors DeFi’s finest while probably doing little to fix the fact that no one actually wants to trade PI. The team claims this will reduce volatility, slippage, and manipulation. One might suspect these promises are as reliable as a snowman in July.
Some clever folks, like Paul Barron and Apex Crypto Consulting (seriously, these names sound like superhero alter egos), have taken a good look at XRP Ledger and concluded it’s basically the toddler version of the early internet. Remember TCP/IP? No? Well, it was that thing that made all those tiny little data packets go “wee!” across networks-kind of like digital tiny aliens hitching a ride to world domination. All thanks to some nerdy magic. Now, XRP claims it’s doing the same for your dollars, euros, and probably that weird currency from the moon we’re all joking about. 🌚
