Currently, Bitcoin’s loitering just above $110,000 like someone who’s just remembered they left their Bentley in a no-parking zone. Only three weeks ago it had a (justifiable) existential crisis at $58K, but now it’s channeling its inner Brigitte Jones post-diary-resolution, bouncing up by nearly 90%. And where are we now?

These big fancy asset managers – they’re moving trillions (with a “T”, not an “M”!) around like they’re auditioning for a financial Fast & Furious sequel – and yet, somehow, they’re doing half of it with software that was cool back when Seinfeld was on the air. You got spreadsheets here, Excel there, some guy probably named Keith emailing “capital calls” like he’s inviting people to a Tupperware party. Hey, Keith, you wanna send me a fax while you’re at it? Maybe throw in a carrier pigeon? 🐦💸
Now, this is the first time Bahrain has clear regulations on stablecoins. The CBB intends to ensure that stablecoins are fully backed by real money.

Ripple Labs, in their infinite wisdom, has applied for a US banking license. Could this be the spark that sends XRP soaring to $2.65? We shall see.

When 77% of 21,500 CoinMarketCap voters cast their ballots in favor, the question isn’t whether FUNToken will move. It’s how far its fixed 10.81 billion supply and aggressive Buy-and-Burn strategy can propel it toward the coveted $0.10 milestone by December 2025. 🌟
