Ant & UBS: Blockchain Bros or Just Another Money Grab? 💰🤝

Apparently, they’re all about “blockchain-powered settlement, tokenized deposits, and real‑time fund movement.” Sounds like a bunch of buzzwords Larry would roll his eyes at. 🙄 But hey, if it means moving money faster, maybe I’ll finally get my refund from that terrible coffee shop.

🚀 Crypto Chaos: Internet Computer Plunges 13.2% – Who’s Next? 🌪️

In this theater of the absurd, three of the twenty assets dare to whisper of gains, while the rest bow to the whims of the market’s tempestuous mood. 🌪️ Among the victors, UNI ascends with a flourish of 10.7%, and BCH, ever the modest soul, gains 2.2%.

Bitcoin’s Big Slump, FOMC Drama, and a Whole Lot of Waiting – This Week’s Financial Fiasco

Some Fed officials have recently been chatting about inflation, job markets, and other unsexy topics that are keeping them from loosening things up. Translation: crypto isn’t going anywhere, folks.
