As the sun sets over Rio de Janeiro, the authorities at the Central Bank, the guardians of the financial realm, are diligently working on the rules that will shape the future of these digital pioneers.
Behold, the price has launched a fresh recovery from the $111,200 abyss, climbing with the tenacity of a man fleeing a fire. It has scaled $112,500 and $113,500, as if they were mere stepping stones to greatness. Yet, the bulls, those valiant champions of bullishness, have pushed it above $114,000 and $115,000, only to see it flirt with $116,298 before retreating into a state of quiet contemplation.
In an exhilarating display of financial fortitude, BitMine Immersion Technologies has decided to embrace Ethereum [ETH] like a gambler clutching their last coin at a casino.

Take Galaxy Digital (GLXY) – it pirouetted up a lovely 12% after orchestrating a $1.65 billion fundraiser to bankroll Forward Industries, that Solana treasury vehicle prodigy. Circle Internet (CRCL), like a forgetful ingénue recalling her lines, bounced back 16% from its June lows. Analysts call it a “technical rebound.” I call it a comeback worthy of a standing ovation.

Yes, inflation is still the uninvited guest at the party, and everyone’s investment plans are feeling the cringe. 😬
