By the time you’re reading this, it’s trading at a modest $126.02, having just suffered its first daily outflow from the spot exchange-traded fund (ETF) on Friday, November 28th. After a 21-day streak of inflows, this was like waking up to a soggy cereal bowl. Yuck.
The 12-hour chart looks like a rollercoaster that’s lost its marbles. After peaking near $5,000, ETH has been on a downward slide that would make even the most seasoned trader clutch their pearls. 📉 But hey, maybe it’s found a bottom at the 0.786 Fibonacci level, just over $2,700. Or maybe not. Because, you know, crypto. 🤷♀️
Amundi, Europe’s largest asset manager, has launched its first tokenized share class on the Ethereum network, the company announced, representing an expansion of the firm’s digital asset strategy. Because nothing says “innovation” like turning your savings into a digital puzzle that only a blockchain can solve. 🧩
Kamirai, a Web3 infrastructure project that seems to have mistaken “decentralized” for “unregulated,” announced the launch of its “Dual-Engine Ecosystem” on Friday.

The Bank of Japan just dropped a bombshell: “Hey, we might raise rates on December 19!” And suddenly, everyone’s like, “Uh-oh, my yen carry trade is a hot mess!” Traders are now scrambling like they’re in a reality TV show elimination round.

David Sacks, the sharp-tongued White House advisor on AI and crypto, has-after five months of grueling, grumpy investigation-slammed The New York Times for what can only be described as a comedy of errors. The paper, in its desperate quest for scandal, tossed out wild claims that it then proceeded to rewrite with the same zeal … Read more

If 2026 is going to deliver a real altcoin season, it probably won’t start with fireworks. It usually begins quietly: Bitcoin cools off after a strong run, $BTC dominance rolls over from local highs, and suddenly alt/$BTC charts stop bleeding and start printing higher lows. Classic crypto drama-just like your ex’s Instagram. 📉

Oh, look who’s back in the conversation! $XRP has re-entered as one of the few majors with an asymmetrical upside narrative. Yes, you read that correctly, asymmetrical – because everything else is just too predictable, right?
KuCoin, in a shocking turn of events, actually managed to get approved under Europe’s MiCA rules. 🎭 Their Austrian subsidiary-KuCoin EU Exchange GmbH (because adding “GmbH” makes it sound extra official)-can now legally operate across 29 countries. Wow. So impressive. Slow clap. 👏
