Crypto news

It all began last September, when nine venerable European banks, dressed in their most serious faces, declared their noble quest: to craft and launch a stablecoin anchored firmly to the Euro-because obviously, USD is so last century. This digital asset will attempt to wrestle the dominance of the US dollar’s titanic grip-those USDT and USDC monsters that gobble up nearly 85% of the market pie, leaving crumbs for the rest of us mere mortals. 🍰

Seems like Larry Fink, usually the last guy you’d see hyping up anything crypto, has decided that Bitcoin is not just for Elon and the gang. A Uggs-and-coffee lover might chuckle at his conversion, but hey, it’s not every day you see you see the big boss of BlackRock putting his earlier skepticism to bed. Bitcoin’s now his go-to when the world’s hockeying aimlessly and traditional finance feels about as stable as my yoga session. 🧘‍♀️😂

Behold the 1-day chart: a masterclass in balancing optimism with pessimism. While LINK managed to surpass the $13.57 lower high-which is either a victory lap or a dare-the overarching trend remains as bullish as a panda in a savanna. The magic to watch? Converting that $15-$16.6 supply zone from “wall of stop-limit orders” to “treasure hoard for the long-term bear.” Fail that, and the chain gets unplugged by $11.74. 👎

On the fateful day of December 3, 2025, the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection issued a cease-and-desist order with all the drama of a Victorian melodrama. The crime? Offering “sports event contracts” that, horror of horrors, resemble unlicensed sports wagers. Only DraftKings, FanDuel, and Fanatics, it seems, are pure enough to operate in this hallowed state. 🏆

On December 2, during a delightful chat on Bloomberg Crypto, Le regaled us with tales of how Strategy carefully built a $1.4 billion dollar reserve, despite the fact that Bitcoin prices have seen their fair share of dramatic dips. You see, even when BTC prices plummeted from their October peak of $125,000 to a ghastly 17% decline in November, Le kept his cool, explaining that the reserve was there to fund dividends and interest-because, you know, it’s always nice to have a rainy-day fund when your assets are as volatile as Bitcoin.

The annual stablecoin settlement has surged past $50 trillion, a figure so large it makes even the most seasoned investor question the very nature of reality. Meanwhile, euro-backed tokens are spreading across payment platforms like a well-timed whisper at a dinner party-subtle, yet impossible to ignore. Digital assets, it seems, are progressing faster than a man in a race against time, and they’re changing the way money moves. Or, as I like to call it, the way money moves with a sly grin. 🧠

This kind of demand is the type that shows up early when the tides are turning. Traders, in their infinite wisdom, are reading this as a sign that the big players are placing their bets on higher valuations. I mean, they wouldn’t be pumping millions into this thing if they didn’t think it was going to the moon, right?

XRP, that sly little fox, trades near $2.16 today, up 1.28% as if mocking the skeptics. $4.3 billion in volume? A feast for the greedy and the gullible alike. One might call it “stabilization,” but let’s be honest-it’s just the coin gasping for air before its next melodramatic collapse. 🎭📉

In the grimy alleyways of crypto, where hope and despair sip tea from the same rusted kettle, Bitcoin stumbles like a drunkard clinging to the Difficulty Regression Model. At $92,300, the model glares at BTC with the cold eye of a capitalist overseer, whispering, “You’re worth no more than your sweat and electricity.” And there BTC lingers, like a beggar clutching a $20 bill, pretending it’s a fortune.

Some experienced technical analysts who track multi-cycle structure-rather than anonymous social-media posts-note that the current price action still allows room for a short-term rebound, provided that buyers maintain consistency. This view is based on standard technical principles such as support-resistance behavior and momentum oscillators, rather than price calls from individual influencers. 🧙‍♂️
