Trust Wallet, that paragon of digital reliability, has issued a dire communiqué to its beleaguered users, urging them to migrate their funds posthaste. The crisis? A browser extension mishap so trivial it’s barely worth mentioning-unless you’re one of the 0.016% of users who dared to log in during the fateful three-day window between Christmas Eve and Boxing Day 2025.

Americans, in their infinite wisdom, managed to lose more than $333 million in 2025 through these crypto kiosks. I mean, who needs a casino when you’ve got a Bitcoin ATM at your local gas station? 🎰

Open interest, the number of open positions (both long and short), has had a bit of a workout lately, spiking like a teenager’s enthusiasm for TikTok. This indicates more liquidity, volatility, and, let’s be honest, drama in the derivative market.
