I’m so excited! Barry Evans is coming back to Walford, and even better, we’ll get to see him with the legendary Pat Evans, played by the amazing Pam St Clement. It’s going to be incredible to see those two together again!
As a critic, I always find the backstory of ‘Back to the Future’ fascinating. Most people don’t realize Eric Stoltz was actually the first Marty McFly! He was six weeks into filming when the producers decided it wasn’t working and, rather drastically, let him go. That’s when Michael J. Fox stepped in and, well, the rest is history. It’s amazing to think how different the film could have been!
Ripple Labs has finally received the green light from Singapore’s central bank to expand its payment activities across the country. It’s like a high school student getting an “A” on a paper they didn’t actually write. This comes at a time when Ripple has been busy working on various strategic initiatives, including acquiring companies faster than a college student buys textbooks. Ripple’s Singapore subsidiary, Ripple Markets APAC, now operates with enhanced regulatory powers under the company’s shiny new Major Payment Institution (MPI) license. Oh, the power!
Speaking at the “Payments in the Evolving Era” conference (a title so grand, it could only be matched by a Gogol novel), Yaron lamented that stablecoins, with their $300 billion market cap and $2 trillion in monthly transactions, are now as embedded in global finance as a nose is to a face. Or, as he put it, “Given adoption among the public, it cannot be said that this is a marginal phenomenon”-a statement as obvious as declaring the sky is blue. 🌌
The biggest release this week is definitely Marvel Cosmic Invasion, and it’s joined by the long-awaited PS5 version of Red Dead Redemption, plus a wave of new games available with PS Plus.
Over the past sixty years of James Bond movies, many actors were considered for the role but never officially became 007. These actors – including established stars and up-and-coming talents – offer a compelling look at how differently the character could have been portrayed, representing alternate versions of the iconic spy that remained unrealized.
Altcoins, naturally, join the parade of doom. ETH, the ever-hopeful, has now kissed goodbye to the $3,000 and $2,900 levels, while XRP-bless its heart-finds itself clinging desperately to a faint lifeline at $2.00. Oh, the struggle…😩
In a recent interview (because who needs hobbies?), Hayes dismissed bear market rumors like they’re last season’s drama. “Oh, a 15-35% dip? Just a coffee break for liquidity,” he quipped. Sarcasm served, folks. 🐻❄️
New research reveals how harnessing quantum measurement backaction at critical points can dramatically improve the precision of continuous sensing protocols.
Now, if you’ve been following Bitcoin’s daily temper tantrums between $86,000 and $93,000, you might be thinking: “This is going to the moon, right?” Well, Mr. Brandt’s latest post on X (where he tends to throw these little reality checks) has a different story. He pointed to a long-term channel that’s been as consistent as your grandma’s homemade pie – and let me tell you, this pie’s ingredients include the numbers from 2013 onwards. And, surprise, surprise, Bitcoin hasn’t reached the top of this channel yet. It’s like a teenager trying to touch the top shelf but can’t quite make it. 🥴
