In a post shared Sunday on his new Substack, Burry called the company’s valuation “ridiculously overvalued,” citing its sky-high 209 times forward earnings. The critique was first picked up by Business Insider and didn’t stop there. Burry took direct aim at the way Elon Musk runs the company, warning that Tesla’s shareholder dilution is spiraling. Burry explained that Tesla waters down its stock by 3.6% every year through stock-based compensation, with no stock buybacks to help support its price. He said Musk’s $1 trillion compensation…

Ether’s price may rise nearly 7% in the near term, as subdued stablecoin yields suggest the crypto market has yet to reach overheated conditions, according to crypto sentiment platform Santiment. “Currently, yields are low, around 4%.

This represents an approximate 6.7% increase from its price of $2,991 at the time of publication according to CoinMarketCap. Ether is down 21.85% over the past 30 days.

Yet another long-dormant Ethereum whale has woken up from hibernation, according to data provided by Lookonchain. The wallet in question (0x2dCA…) is reportedly from an early Ethereum ICO. According to the data, the owner originally invested about $12,400 and obtained 40,000 ETH. Today, it is worth roughly $119.5 million. After more than a decade of dormancy, the wallet executed a test transfer of 5 ETH (~ $15,000) to a new address, which was rather noteworthy. Shortly after that, the remaining 39,995 ETH was moved to a different wallet (0x2602…). Blockchain history shows many similar cases of long‑dormant wallets “waking up.” Over the past several…

Hester Peirce, a commissioner of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and head of the SEC’s Crypto Task Force, reaffirmed the right to crypto self-custody and privacy in financial transactions. “I’m a freedom maximalist,” Peirce told The Rollup podcast on Friday, while saying that self-custody of assets is a fundamental human right. She added: “Why should I have to be forced to go through someone else to hold my assets? It baffles me that in this country, which is so premised on freedom, that would even be an issue — of course, people can hold their own assets.”…
