| North Korean devs making $500K per month, EigenLayer restaking fever, ‘unusual’ Bitcoin moves | 16 Aug 2024 | 00:07:38 | |
Bitcoin’s price behavior is “unusual,” according to recent data on open interest, which is rising despite the price falling. Furthermore, institutions have not rushed in to buy the dip this time, as they did earlier in August, so we could see BTC fall further unless weekend volatility wants to throw a spanner in the works once again. Elsewhere, EigenLayer’s total value locked surged 11% in a week, ZachXBT uncovers a network of North Korean devs making a fortune at crypto projects, and Sotheby’s starts to auction some blue chip art NFTs.

| XRP bull run incoming, altseason imminent, and $70K Bitcoin is ‘here to stay’ | 12 Apr 2024 | 00:11:22 | |
The price of Bitcoin may not have moved much in the past 24 hours, but many leveraged positions were liquidated as some traders warn that worse is yet to come. However, more investors are using BTC to hedge against the U.S. economy, which some analysts believe could mean the $70,000 price level is secured. Elsewhere in crypto, data suggests Ripple’s XRP token is gearing up for a bull run of its own, technical charts indicate a massive altseason could be imminent, and Worldcoin is seeing growing adoption as its community funds goat purchases for a Kenyan user.

In yesterday’s episode, we discussed some analysts’ predictions on what would happen if the Consumer Price Index showed high inflation. The CPI did show higher-than-expected inflation, so were the analysts correct on what happened next? You’re damn right they were. Elsewhere, the SEC issued a Wells notice to Uniswap, Coinbase integrates Apple Pay in the U.K., and memecoin trading volume appears to be crashing.

| Bitcoin is ‘unstoppable,’ Telegram vulnerability warning, Solana’s problems explained | 10 Apr 2024 | 00:11:23 | |
For the third time, Bitcoin bangs its head and drops below $70,000, raising questions about what happens next. Some analysts warn of a heavy correction, and some think a pod of whales lurk beneath the surface and are ready to scoop up sats should that happen, causing the price to bounce back. Elsewhere, CertiK warns of a “high risk” Telegram vulnerability, Solana developers plan a fix for the failed transactions problem, and U.S. Representative Patrick McHenry discusses digital asset legislation, hyping up Bitcoiners.

| 91% Memecoins audited had vulnerabilities, warnings for Bitcoin halving, and is Cardano dead? | 09 Apr 2024 | 00:11:49 | |
The past 24 hours have seen some major stories and analyses of the upcoming Bitcoin halving — which is a mere 10 days away — and the consequences of the quadrennial event. Some industry experts and analysts warn that the market may be sailing into choppy waters in the short term as traders approach the halving as a “sell the news” event, but ultimately, fortune will favor the patient. In other news, Charles Hoskinson defends Cardano as it comes under fire, and some damning analysis on memecoins might have you second guessing that moonshot.

| Bitcoin to $140K by July, victory for Coinbase, and Genesis buys $2.1B of BTC | 08 Apr 2024 | 00:11:31 | |
This weekend was “not typical,” according to one analyst, as they, and many others, weigh in on what it might mean. Some are looking at the unlikeliness of a major correction, while others are using Bollinger Band signals to suggest that if we follow past trends, we could see a price tag north of $140,000 by July. Surely not, right? Elsewhere, Coinbase has a major win in court regarding secondary crypto sales not being considered securities, Genesis buys $2.1 billion of BTC, and the Fantom CEO defends Solana over heavy criticism about failed transactions.Further reading:

| Binance drops Bitcoin Ordinals, Solana transaction issues, and Cathie Wood praises BTC | 05 Apr 2024 | 00:08:55 | |

PayPal is set to allow United States users to fund global money transfers using U.S. dollars converted from its native stablecoin, PayPal USD. ARK Invest CEO Cathie Wood says Bitcoin’s growth in value is driven by its appeal as a hedge against devaluing fiat currencies. And the Solana network is struggling with transaction completion issues.

| US gov’t shock market with 10K Bitcoin move, Pump.fun the ‘worst casino on Earth’ | 15 Aug 2024 | 00:07:48 | |
Yesterday was about as confusing as it gets for Bitcoin as the price climbed steadily in the $60,000 range. Then, the US Consumer Price Index report revealed unexpectedly positive figures, which should have helped boost the price of BTC. However, the opposite happened as Bitcoin dumped 5% courtesy of the US government moving 10,000 of its Silk Road Bitcoin stash. Elsewhere, Iran is offering a bounty to anyone who reports illegal crypto mining, many crypto influencers could get hit hard with a new US FTC rule banning fake likes and followers, and we look at why betting on memecoins on Pump.fun offers worse odds than playing roulette in a casino.

Bitcoin is rumbling with momentum, but which direction will it take? Some analysts worry that macroeconomic difficulties will push the price down, while others believe we’re in a bull run and could see BTC’s price hit $99,000 as soon as May. Elsewhere, a judge denied Coinbase’s request for dismissal, and the SEC is set to proceed with its case. In other news, KuCoin reacts to scrutiny from the U.S. Department of Justice in an unusual way, and a $7.5 billion AI crypto token merger proposal could shake up the scene.

| Bitcoin pumps 12%, Coinbase to launch DOGE futures, and will the SEC classify ETH as a security? | 21 Mar 2024 | 00:11:29 | |
Yesterday was a big macro day in the United States, and the crypto market responded well to the news as Bitcoin pumped 12% — but that just scratches the surface of the past 24 hours in crypto. The SEC has pushed back the deadline for deciding on whether to approve a spot Ether ETF, sparking rumors and reports that the SEC wants to classify Ether as a security. Coinbase is launching Dogecoin futures in what might be a tactical play, and could Grayscale really run out of Bitcoin?

Bitcoin has continued its dip, with the spot Bitcoin ETFs seeing a second consecutive day of outflows, so you might think it’s all suddenly looking pretty bleak, but that’s not the case. On a brighter note, the world’s largest pension fund is researching Bitcoin for diversification purposes, and the largest asset manager in the world, BlackRock, begins asset tokenization on Ethereum — not to mention the craziness that unfolded on BitMEX yesterday!

| Celsius sues Tether for $3.5B, Morgan Stanley’s Bitcoin ETF ‘death wish’ | 12 Aug 2024 | 00:07:36 | |
Bitcoin’s strong recovery last week led some to believe it may have established itself above the $60,000 psychological level, but the weekend’s action put that to bed. The analysis appears to point at institutions and a change in their buying habits of stablecoins, though there are some indicators that it will be a short-lived dip. For example, the largest wealth manager in the US, Morgan Stanley, is allowing its 15,000 financial advisers to pitch spot Bitcoin ETFs, which should be a positive for the price of BTC. However, a former SEC official has called Morgan Stanley’s decision a “death wish.” Meanwhile, the defunct crypto exchange Celsius has filed a $3.5 billion lawsuit against stablecoin issuer Tether.
