One might speculate that the SEC’s operational prerequisites are as easy to satisfy as convincing a cat to take the written word seriously. 🐱📚
The inimitable Reece Merrick, Ripple’s Middle East & Africa director, took to the digital stage this week to proclaim the obvious: crypto is the new black. 🖤 “Sub-Saharan Africa & Turkey are adopting crypto faster than one adopts a witty retort at a Wildean salon,” he quipped, his words dripping with the gravitas of a man who knows his audience. “In regions where inflation is the uninvited guest and currency crashes the main event, crypto is not merely a trend-it’s the lifeline one clings to with a martini in hand.” 🍸

But the steam went right outta her, right after the folks runnin’ Cardano got to votin’ on spendin’ seventy million ADA – that’s a heap of digital beans – to fix up the infrastructure. It’s a big ask, even for a blockchain. Now it looks like they might just get it, with old Charles Hoskinson himself givin’ it a nod, along with Input Output and a few other fancy-named outfits. You gotta wonder, do they need all those meetings to agree on spendin’ the money? Seems mighty inefficient, if you ask me.

On Saturday, Nov. 29, CZ decided to stir the pot, and-let’s be real-when does he not enjoy a good stir? He came out with what he boldly called an “unpopular opinion” about the best time to buy and sell Bitcoin. Hold on to your wallets, folks, because the man suggested that the key to navigating this chaos is… selling when the world is greedy and buying when it’s scared out of its mind. Yep, you read that right. Fear and greed: the secret sauce to success. 🍿
