MyConstant’s Fall from Grace: A Comedy of Crypto Errors & Courtroom Mishaps

Ce vaillant, se croyant maître de la scène de la finance décentralisée, se lança dans une aventure d’un genre nouveau : confier à MyConstant, une plateforme prétendument sûre comme le coffre-fort du roi, des fonds confiés par de nombreux naïfs-plus de 20 millions de dollars, rien que ça! Et pour montrer sa bravoure, notre champion dépensa 11,9 millions pour acquérir un certain TerraUSD – stable, disait-on – mais qui finalement s’effondra comme un soufflet mal soufflé, emportant avec lui près de 8 millions de dollars de rêves brisés. 🤡💥

Coinbase’s New Wallet-So Easy Even Your Grandma Can Screw It Up!

These wallets are compatible with everything-EVM chains, Solana-because who wants to be left out in this digital race. Login options? Email, SMS, OAuth-your standard “trust us, we know what we’re doing” login methods. And don’t worry, they swear the private keys are safe in some fancy trusted stuff called TEEs-trust me, that’s a real thing. Developers can build their own rules, make transfers, stake, all with one API. Innovation, or chaos? Only time will tell. 🕒

Bitcoin Plummets! Could Jeeves Flip It to $200K by Christmas? 👀🚀

If you were hoping to toast to July’s peak price of $123,000, you’ll have to make do with prosecco instead of champagne. Bitcoin’s value dropped by about 7.2%. Analysts are, of course, beside themselves with excitement. The word “price discovery” is being batted around like an overzealous cricket ball, as if the whole thing might soon be solved over a strong cup of tea.

Jupiter Lend’s Private Beta: It’s Here, but is it Too Early?

Announced on August 6th, this thing is only for the lucky few who signed up early. The rest of us, well, we’ll just wait until the full public release drops later in the month. It’s developed with Fluid (not the fun kind, the decentralized finance kind) and aims to make lending feel like the best thing since sliced bread. We’ll see about that. 😏

SOL’s Plunge: A Tale of On-Chain Resilience and Market Indifference 🌪️💸

Solana’s [SOL] on-chain fundamentals, we are told, remain as steadfast as a Nabokov protagonist’s delusions. Total Value Locked (TVL) has risen 2.67%, a modest curtsy in the face of oblivion. User retention, stable? But of course-who would abandon a sinking ship when the deck chairs are so comfortably arranged? And protocol-level throughput, scaling like a ladder to the moon, boasts a 500% MoM increase in stablecoin growth. Bravo! 🌕✨

Bitcoin’s Taking a Nap-And It’s Annoying Me

978 days into this thing, and now people are asking if it’s over? C’mon! Of course it’s not over – it’s just resting comfortably in its ego after that whole spot ETF drama. Josh’s all like “probably not over yet, could continue” – well THANKS for that bold prediction, Nostradamus!🙄

Michigan Pension Fund’s Bold Crypto Bet: Epic or Epic Fail?

Now, ARKB isn’t just any old ticker-it’s one of a merry band of so-called “spot Bitcoin ETFs” that the SEC blessed back in early 2024. The clever idea is that you get all the thrill of Bitcoin’s price swings without ever having to actually hold the digital treasure in your pocket. It’s like having your cake and eating it too, except the cake is a little bit… well, enigmatic! 🍪

Why Cash Refuses to Take a Bow in the EU’s Digital Drama 🎭💰

Ah, but didn’t we hear whispers that digital payments would send cash packing? That by now, coins would be relegated to the dusty corners of sock drawers and wallets would exist only as apps on our phones? Alas, those predictions have fallen flatter than a pancake at a Weight Watchers convention. According to a recent bulletin penned by Alejandro Zamora Perez (a Banknote Issuance Specialist at the ECB, no less) and Trainee Economist Rebecca Clipal, cash remains stubbornly relevant. It’s like the Monty Python parrot of monetary instruments: “Not dead yet!” 🦜✨
