Meanwhile, its competitors are tripping over their own hemlines, showing sharper declines in activity and price behavior. The spotlight, my dear, has most definitely swung toward TRON’s relative strength. But the question remains: is this durability a fleeting performance, or is it the stuff of legend?
Ah yes, the esteemed US Supreme Court, in an act that must have sent shivers through the corridors of power (or at least made a few lawyers choke on their coffee), declared many of President Trump’s tariffs illegal. Turns out, using the 1977 emergency law-because why not go vintage?-to slap taxes on imports was a tad overreaching. Who knew?
So, short-term Bitcoin whales are now holding about $26 billion in unrealized losses. What a way to wake up! The peak was back on February 6 when it dipped below $60,000, and just like that, losses surged to around $32 billion. These poor souls were probably thinking, “Hey, I’ll just hold it until it goes back up!” Spoiler alert: That’s not how it works. If volatility makes a comeback, we might see these whales flipping out and selling like it’s Black Friday. Talk about an emotional rollercoaster!
Markets await confirmation of what could be the company’s 100th buy. Bitcoin traded below $68,000, placing holdings under the average cost, yet acquisitions continue. Because nothing says “confidence” like buying low and hoping for a miracle.
But fear not, for in the shadow of this bearish gloom, Grayscale has audaciously increased its stake in Cardano’s Smart Contract Fund to a most impressive 20.34%! It appears that while the small fish are tossing their nets overboard, the great whales are swimming deeper, adding to their treasure trove.
On February 21st, Ethereum [ETH] took a nosedive below $1,980, leaving major holders sobbing into their crypto wallets. It’s like the entire market said, “Hold my beer, I’m going in!”
At the pinnacle of this esteemed ranking stands Chainlink, which, with its decentralized oracle services, serves as the vital connector between smart contracts and the ever-elusive realm of real-world data, encompassing prices and events. Without such a bridge, one must ponder: could advanced blockchain applications truly function at all?
Well, well, well! Tether, that grand maestro of stablecoins, has decided to pull the curtain on its offshore yuan-pegged stablecoin, CNH₮, just like a magician revealing his tricks gone wrong. This decision, made on a fine Friday, follows an internal review which concluded that keeping the token around was akin to nursing a pet rock-lots of care, but no returns.
But wait! Hold on to your hats, dear readers, because our chums at BeInCrypto have unearthed three cheeky altcoins that are strutting around like they own the place, completely ignoring the gloomy vibes of the bear market.
