According to a latest article from The New York Times, the round was led by Sequoia Capital and Andreessen Horowitz, with a chorus of supporters including Paradigm, CapitalG, Coinbase Ventures, and Spark Capital. Talk about a who’s-who of people who like to guess the future and then take the odds to dinner. 🧠🍷
Well, Ethereum’s big moment depends on if there are enough cheerleaders-aka buyers-around to balance out all these sulking whales. If traders stay optimistic, maybe, just maybe, ETH can flex and climb higher. Otherwise, we’re in for some awkward silence.
Bitcoin, that old bull, stumbles from $126K to $121K, leaving altcoins in its dusty wake. 🌪️
But fear not, dear investor! The market’s pullback is a masquerade ball for emerging presales. 🎭
Snorter ($SNORT) sniffs out profits with Telegram trading and 110% staking rewards. 🐽
Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) and Remittix ($RTX) rake in millions, promising scalability and real-world utility. 🌍✨
Grab your coffee (or crypto) because while the US government is playing shutdown bingo, Bitcoin is having a glow-up moment. Max Keiser, the crypto oracle with a side of snark, says this isn’t just luck-it’s destiny. Or, you know, the inevitable collapse of fiat. Same thing. 🤷♂️
To fund this wild ride, the company closed a $100 million Private Investment in Public Equity (PIPE) round, because nothing says “we’re serious” like a three-letter acronym. Anchor investor Antalpha Platform Holding Company and other accredited investors, including Tether itself (yes, the same Tether), threw their hats-and money-into the ring. On top of that, they secured a $50 million senior debt facility, bringing their total funding to a cool $150 million. 🧮✨
As of this very moment, ETH is sitting at $4,339-down 0.9% in the last 24 hours, but who’s counting? With a 24-hour trading volume of $14.6 billion (you know, just a casual day at the office), Bitcoin continues to hover above $121,000. It’s almost like the market’s taking a breather after a crazy sprint. But hey, don’t worry. Big wallets are still buying, retail investors are huddled around the $4,000-$4,700 range, and analysts are staring at their charts like fortune tellers hoping for a big breakout. 🙄
Post-encounter, Roth, ever the diplomat, took to the digital stage (X, as the plebeians call it) to croon: “Great meeting with Ripple, as they pirouette toward their license. We discussed their European dreams, and I, with a flourish, reaffirmed our love for digital innovation.” 🕺💼
So, XRP’s been having a rough week (or, you know, the last seven days-time flies in crypto). Down 7%, currently chilling at $2.82. Not ideal. And guess what? 440 million tokens got dumped by whales. That’s over $1.2 billion. Yes, you read that right. Because why not just ruin everyone’s day?
Markets, like a crowd huddled in winter, murmur of a wind that smells of metal and new laws. On Thursday, a quiet thunder rolled across the room where the world trades its breath, and the earth revealed its hidden wealth once more-rare earths, the unassuming kings of many a gadget and gun.
It changes hands at roughly $4,350, with a 24-hour volume marching past $41 billion. The mood is down-2% in a single day, 3% slid over the week-like a stubborn sofa that won’t stop squeaking just when the aunt asks if anyone would like tea. 😅
