🚀 Bitcoin’s Upside-Down World: Did the Bear Just Ghost Us? 🐻‍❌

Shanaka Anslem Perera, the sort of industry expert who probably knows more about Bitcoin than most of us know about our own sock drawers, has declared that the Bitcoin cycle didn’t just break-it did a somersault, flipped its wig, and landed in a parallel universe. 🌌 And if he’s right (which, let’s face it, is about as likely as finding a decent cup of tea in the Milky Way), the bear market everyone’s been waiting for with the enthusiasm of a dentist appointment might already be yesterday’s news. 📉

XRP’s Wild Ride: From Euphoria to 🌪️-Will It Find Its Umbrella?☂️

When a network transitions from explosive growth to consolidation-a process as inevitable as the waning of a full moon-it follows a pattern as predictable as a clockwork orange.

XRP Market Chart

In a moment of dramatic flair, our farsighted charlatan donned his CFA seal of madness and dropped a phrase on December 4: “Might conjure something with XRP.” A day later, amidst an audience of doom and gloom, he offered further clues, “You know, my dear followers, that I regularly preach of humanity’s impending doom? Well, it appears time to transmute calamity into coin, perhaps laced with the Yen and XRP.”

NFT Owners: The Taxman Cometh! 😱

According to some papers filed way back in September 2025 (which felt like five years ago, frankly), the CRA is investigating whether these users have properly declared their earnings from buying and selling these…things. NFTs, they call them. Sounds like something you’d find growing in a particularly damp garden.
