The latest tumble, one must note, is of particular import, for it has struck a technical target of no small consequence. What follows, you ask? Why, it hinges on whether this level holds firm or crumbles like a poorly baked soufflé. 🥄🍳

Despite a few hopscotch bounce-backs, there’s no sign of the trend turning on its head, much like trying to find a clean spoon in the Jermyn Street Cutlery.

So, the crypto world decided to have a little meltdown this week, with prices dropping faster than my New Year’s resolutions. But guess who’s not sweating?

Ah, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., that venerable guardian of financial decorum, has taken a bold step into the digital abyss.

Gelephu, a town nestled in the southern folds of Bhutan, has been designated as the site of this grand experiment in economic alchemy. The GMC, launched in 2024, is ostensibly designed to halt the exodus of Bhutan’s youth by conjuring high-value jobs out of thin air-or, more accurately, out of cryptographic code.
