This clever rogue, known by the moniker ZachXBT-like some sort of digital Sherlock-spied out the scheme over a thing they call X, which folks around here call Twitter. The con fellas dressed up like a crypto exchange and a hardware wallet, sounding as trustworthy as a fox in the henhouse. Seems these scallywags are getting bolder, spreading their mischief across the globe like a bad case of the measles.
After weeks of doubting whether the Fed would ever do anything, investors finally looked up from their bread and circled September on the calendar.
As he delivered what may be his swan song from this hallowed venue, Powell hinted at the possibility of rate cuts by year’s end. Yet, in a masterclass of ambiguity, he offered no specifics-because who needs clarity in these turbulent times? After all, uncertainty is the spice of life, is it not?
Now, if you’re wondering how this miraculous transformation came about, let us rewind to 2019, when Allianz was busy wagging its finger at crypto like a disapproving schoolmaster. Back then, it cited volatility and regulatory uncertainty as reasons to avoid the stuff entirely. But lo and behold, here we are in 2025, and they’ve done a complete about-face. One might say they’ve gone from Scrooge McDuck to Bitcoin Booster™️ faster than you can say “blockchain.”
In what can only be described as either genius or hubris, Charles Hoskinson-the crypto maestro himself-has unveiled his magnum opus: an ambitious vision for a fully automated global compliance system. Yes, you heard me right. Imagine regulatory frameworks so smooth they feel like butter on warm toast. The kind that doesn’t require hours spent deciphering legalese while drinking coffee strong enough to dissolve steel.
The sorcery, or ‘Series B funding round’ as the moderns call it, was led by a cabal of international financiers from QED Investors. They were joined by a chorus of new and existing backers-the IFC, HSG, a certain QuantumLight (a name suggesting its owners move faster than relativity allows), and others. All drawn, no doubt, by the siren song of three and a half million souls entrusting their crumbling liras to this digital chariot.
What’s truly amusing is their sudden enthusiasm, especially after years of citing regulatory uncertainty and volatility concerns. Oh, the irony! Now they’re singing a different tune, praising Bitcoin’s institutional adoption and its diversification potential. It’s almost as if they’ve just noticed the elephant in the room. 🐘
Picture this: eight blocks, one miner, zero subtlety. It was as if Foundry USA decided to flex its computational muscles on the global stage. The pattern was glaring enough to make even casual observers do a double-take. Was it rigged? Nope. Just another day in the life of a massive mining pool flexing its dominance. 💪

Should fortune favour Ethereum, history sings that the crypto banquet as a whole enjoys a more robust dessert course. When $ETH leads the conga line, the altcoins dust off their dancing shoes and follow-never ones to miss an invitation. But, my dear reader, just as the guests begin to relax, there comes a looming figure named Jerome, holding the metaphorical raincloud: if he slams the door on rate cuts in his Jackson Hole address, watch as $ETH, Bitcoin, and their crypto companions retreat to the pantry for a bout of corrective navel-gazing. 🍷
