XRP lags behind the broad crypto river, which slides roughly one percent. The market sighs, and the little traders blink, clutching hopes like coins clinking in a pocket. 🤖😂

According to CryptoQuant’s IT Tech (who probably spends more time staring at charts than sunlight), the Coinbase Premium Gap just pulled a 180. For those who skipped Finance 101, this “gap” is just the difference between Bitcoin prices on Coinbase (where Americans trade) and Binance (where everyone else trades while avoiding U.S. regulators).

In today’s episode of “As the Altcoin Turns,” Decred (DCR) burst onto the scene like it’s the star of a reality show, climbing to $28.03 with a whopping 28% gain-because who doesn’t love a comeback story? Dash (DASH) wasn’t far behind, throwing confetti with a 14.26% rally. And let’s not forget Chiliz (CHZ) and Memecore, who casually added over 6.5% and 5.25% to their portfolios. On the other hand, Story is crashing harder than a bad date, sliding nearly 10%-yikes! Polygon (POL) and MYX Finance aren’t faring much better, dropping more than 6% and 5.5%.

The report, with its very serious title Stablecoin Payments at Scale: How Cards Bridge Digital Assets and Global Commerce (yawn), claims crypto cards are now more popular than wallet-to-wallet payments. Because, apparently, people prefer swiping plastic over typing long crypto addresses. Who knew?

@theunipcs, a crypto analyst of considerable wit and discernment on X, declared that meme coin dominance has plummeted to near all-time lows, potentially heralding a grand sector-wide rally in 2026. The analyst shared a CryptoQuant chart, a most perplexing artifact, illustrating the declining trend in the meme coin market. He noted that the current downturn is even more severe than the harrowing period of 2022 to 2023. Yet, similar low points in February 2024 led to monumental price rallies in meme coins like BONK, which soared 440%, FLOKI by 1,000%, WIF by 1,600%, and PEPE by 2,500%. 🎉

The crux of the matter lies within the convoluted folds of the Digital Asset Market CLARITY Act-a hefty tome of legislation, as complex and perplexing as trying to explain cryptocurrency to your grandmother. This Senate bill is intended to delineate the roles of the SEC and CFTC, like trying to assign duties to cats and dogs in a household filled with chaos.

TRON, that charismatic player, has now joined the ranks of Base, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Sei, and Solana on the grand stage of MetaMask. One might say it’s becoming quite the party-an extravagant multichain custody service where everyone is invited, and the drinks are on the house! 🍹💃

Indeed, while trading volumes have climbed like a mischievous cat up a tree, our token of interest appears to be having quite the struggle maintaining its dignity above certain key support zones. It’s as if the investors are throwing a lavish party while the price is stuck in the corner, sulking and sipping on flat soda, reflecting a rather amusing gap between the hustle and the bustle of trading activity and the price’s performance!

Bitcoin treasury companies, those darlings of the financial world, are multiplying faster than gossip at a garden party. Yet, OranjeBTC stands apart, a peacock among pigeons, with an approach as unique as a monocle at a rave. 🦚

Soloway, ever the optimist, insists the best part is that these moves were visible on the charts days in advance, before the crowd caught on. One might say it’s the work of the elite, those who navigate the markets with the grace of a well-rehearsed dance. 🕺
