The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), in a fit of generosity, has bestowed upon Novig, a peer-to-peer sports trading platform, the coveted title of Designated Contract Market (DCM). This, my dears, permits them to operate a fully regulated sports prediction exchange across the entire nation, all under one federal umbrella. How marvelously efficient!

Right now, Ethereum is testing a support zone so crucial, it’s like the last slice of cake at a family gathering. Cryptic Trades (yes, that’s a real name) points out that ETH is cozying up to the 1D Bull Market Support Band, while also pressing into a high-timeframe demand zone.

Louis C.K.’s previous Netflix special, 2017, presented him as a serious artist – a director and insightful comedian. But his latest, Ridiculous, shows a more relaxed side: he appears in casual clothes like jeans and a flannel shirt, resembling a familiar, somewhat grumpy uncle.
