A Sharpe ratio of 2? That’s financial jargon for “pretty good.” Basically, it means for every unit of risk, you’re getting double the reward. Or, in Larry David terms, it’s like ordering a pastrami sandwich and getting two pickles instead of one. 🥒🥒

The alarm bell rings loud and clear: stablecoins, those digital dollar doppelgängers, are making a break for it-thanks to a curious legal loophole-drawing deposits away from traditional banks faster than you can say “deposit flight.” The BPI, which basically acts as the watchdog for America’s banking elite, is waving its mighty finger and insisting that Congress keep the GENIUS Act’s guardrails firmly in place. Because, apparently, stablecoins are not cut from the same regulation cloth as your standard bank-and that’s giving them a shiny advantage.
Now, before you start planning your billionaire lifestyle, take note: Ethereum took a teensy-weensy tumble of 2.6% in the past 24 hours, resting at $4,612 early Friday. But fear not, dear reader, for this little dip is just a hiccup in an otherwise meteoric rise. ETH is still up a staggering 18% over the past week, and it nearly kissed its all-time high earlier this week. Traders are whispering (or maybe shouting) that short-term wobbles are to be expected, but the grand trifecta of shrinking supply, insatiable ETF demand, and a bullish macro backdrop could send prices soaring by year’s end. Spoiler alert: It’s going to be wild. 🦄✨
Just when you thought it couldn’t get any wilder, Brazil, with its title as the eighth-largest economy in the world, is gearing up to take on these tariffs with an aid package that sounds a bit like a superhero’s sidekick. Cue the “Sovereign Brazil” plan – which, surprise surprise, is not about making gold glitter but rather about unleashing a jaw-dropping $5.55 billion credit line to help those poor, afflicted producers. Because who doesn’t love a good bailout? 🎉
Why, you ask? Presale cryptos are like apples picked from the lowest, ripest branches – offering you fresh, unexpectable flavors, potential stupendous riches, and sometimes even a bit of a secret handshake by the blooming tree. And here’s the crux of it: an early bird doesn’t just catch the worm, it catches the worm before that worm finds out it’s wanted.
According to a press release that managed to find its way to the desks of Bitcoin enthusiasts everywhere, BPI India intends to spread the gospel of Bitcoin to policymakers, regulators, and the common man. The noble aim is to craft a pro-Bitcoin policy framework, ensuring that India’s economic future is as secure as its political past. 📜
Hyperliquid (HYPE), that darling of decentralized finance, dances merrily toward fresh milestones. With $29 billion traded within a day and $7.7 million collected in fees (bravo, truly), the platform boasts metrics that would make even Ivan Turgenev raise an eyebrow 🙄. Ah, but what does the Twitter-sphere say about such achievements?
David Bailey, the man who once thought Bitcoin was a new way to pay for bagels, will now run the merged mess. Tim Pickett, KindlyMD’s former CEO and current Chief Medical Officer, gets a promotion to Director. Because nothing says “medical expertise” like a title that sounds like a Netflix show. 🩺✨ The board also added six new members, including Bitcoin enthusiasts who probably still think NFTs are “those digital cats.”
The US Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) threw the book at Garantex (again) and its shiny new successor, Grinex. But TRM Labs suggests this whole thing might be a bit like trying to nail jelly to a wall. Apparently, exchanges like Garantex have a knack for “preparing contingency plans well in advance of anticipated enforcement measures”. It’s almost *admirable*, if they weren’t busy helping people launder money. Almost.
