Wall Street’s Hasty Exodus: $11 Billion Worth of Bonds Retreat from American Carnage 🚨💸

The exodus harks back to the glory days of Q1 2020, when everything was being sold except perhaps one’s own grandmother. Robert Tipp, high priest of bond wisdom at PGIM, offered this ominous gospel: “It’s a volatile environment, with inflation misbehaving and the government churning out IOUs as only a government can.

The Absurd Tale of a Japanese Bank, Solana & Fireblocks: Blockchain, Vodka & Wallets?

Meanwhile, as the global stablecoin bazaar swells beyond $250 billion (the kind of sum that would keep old Karamazov up for three days straight, plotting mischief), aging financial institutions, with their creaky ledgers and porcelain teacups, feel the creeping horror of irrelevance.
