CEO of MicroStrategy Michael Saylor received advice from well-known Bitcoin critic Peter Schiff in a recent Twitter exchange that could best be described as sarcastic. Schiff suggested that Saylor take out a second loan of $1 billion and invest it in DJT stocks, which he claims are more valuable due to their higher volatility in response to Saylor’s assertion that the value of Bitcoin is derived from its volatility. Schiff’s reasoning aims to ridicule Saylor’s conviction that Bitcoin is a volatile asset that is worth investing in. If value were solely determined by volatility, he suggests that Bitcoin would be…

According to data from Arkham Intelligence, an unknown whale took practically 12.7 billion Shiba Inu (SHIB) tokens from the largest crypto exchange in the United States, Coinbase, late yesterday. This amount of the popular meme-inspired cryptocurrency is equivalent to just over one-fifth of a million dollars and represents nothing out of the ordinary. However, the on-chain history of the address behind the large withdrawal opens a veil that hides something more interesting. Thus, the wallet under the address “0x0907A” already contained a rather large block of Shiba Inu tokens which, with a new addition, began to equal 135.45 billion SHIB,…

Historically, Bitcoin and the Dollar Index (DXY) have maintained a largely negative correlation. This means that when the dollar strengthens (DXY increases), Bitcoin tends to fall in value, and conversely, when DXY falls, Bitcoin tends to rise. However, analysts predict that this could change and return to a positive correlation. Bitcoin- Dollar Index (DXY) Correlation May Turn Positive!

Options data from the Chicago Mercantile Exchange shows the one-month BTC call-ask…

Fortnite-like battle royale shooter OpenSeason hosted a 12-hour competition promising players a slice of $350,000 worth of tokens. But instead of airdropping those Ethereum-based tokens, the developers burned them—and will burn many more ahead. By the end of the token purge, 82% of the total supply of the FU Money (FU) token will have been burned, developer Fractional Uprising Studios told Decrypt’s GG. The team claims this is a move to help support the token’s health… and have a laugh while doing it. Last week, OpenSeason’s creators announced the Mega Jeet competition—”jeet” being crypto slang for someone who sells quickly…
