This initiative, a product of the Office of Cybersecurity and Critical Infrastructure Protection (OCPP), promises to offer our beleaguered American crypto firms timely and actionable insights-one can only hope that such wisdom is not as elusive as truth itself. The idea, as articulated in the press release dated April 9, is to bolster these fragile entities against the ever-growing tide of security threats that seem to rise with the sun each morning.

On the fateful Friday of April 10th, Bitwise, with a flourish worthy of a Shakespearean actor, unveiled its second amendment, introducing FalconX, Flowdesk, Nonco, and Wintermute as the newest members of its countertrading ensemble.

Apparently, the PIRC tokens have this cute little feature where they promise not to lose more than 23.8% of their value. Adorable, right? But here’s the kicker: for that to work, Pi itself needs to act like it’s got its life together-aka, be as stable as a yoga instructor on a Saturday morning.
