XRP’s Secret Path to 2029: AI, Trump, and Chaos

Google’s Gemini AI, that paragon of logical brilliance, predicts XRP’s ascent with the certainty of a man who’s never lost a bet. One might ask: How does it know? Does it commune with the spirits of Wall Street? Or does it simply echo the delusions of its makers, who, like all humans, crave a narrative where chaos makes sense?

Trump Calls Market Slump “Peanuts” – Solana & XRP: The Real Winners?

President Donald Trump, that most astute observer of fiscal matters, has recently deemed the current stock market dip a trifling inconvenience, a mere pebble in the vast marble halls of his financial empire. He predicts, with the confidence of a man who has never met a prediction he couldn’t outspend, that stocks shall “double” in time-a claim as likely as a snowball surviving a summer in a monopolized Sahara.

What Ho! Iran’s Central Bank Goes Crypto-Crazy with $507M in USDT!

This bombshell, dropped on January 21, 2026, came from a spot of sleuthing involving leaked documents and blockchain data. The sleuths mapped over 50 wallet addresses linked to the CBI, though Dr. Tom Robinson, Elliptic’s co-founder, chimes in to say this is likely just the tip of the iceberg. After all, they’ve only included wallets they’re jolly sure belong to the CBI.

Winklevoss Twins Make a $1.4M Bet on Crypto Privacy, Because Why Not?

So, Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, the dynamic duo behind the crypto exchange known as Gemini (which one can only assume was named after the twins’ zodiac sign and not a particularly indecisive star), donated a whopping 3,221 ZEC-valued at around $1.4 million-to Shielded Labs, an independent organization that appears to exist solely to fund the core work on the Zcash network. Who knew blockchains needed patrons like Renaissance artists?

Wall Street’s Wild Ride: NEAR ETF Joins the Circus!

After a year of major ETF filings tied to Solana [SOL] and Ripple [XRP], Grayscale Investments has decided to join the party, turning its beady little eyes to NEAR Protocol [NEAR]. Oh, what a delightful twist! In a Form S-1 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on the 20th of January, Grayscale announced plans to convert its existing Near Trust into a spot ETF. Fancy that! From a developer’s darling to the institutional spotlight-NEAR is growing up, whether it likes it or not.

Ethereum’s Great Wallet Hunt: Will Whales Save the Day or Crash the Party?

Imagine, if you will, a market so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Now picture a whale the size of a zeppelin quietly hoovering up ETH through backchannels like a butler tidying up after a raucous party. According to Lookonchain-the Sherlock Holmes of blockchain analytics-our OTC whale friend has been buying 10,000 ETH at a time, because nothing says “subtlety” like moving $58.8 million worth of crypto in one go. Trend Research, ever the drama queen, borrowed $70M in USDT just to join the frenzy. One might call it “accumulation,” but really, it’s just rich folks playing musical chairs with a blockchain twist.
