📊 Stablecoins > Visa
For the first time ever, stablecoins moved more dollar value in 2024 than Visa. Yep, that actually happened.
This marks a major shift: blockchain-based money is no longer niche — it's competing (and winning) against traditional giants.
🔗 DeFi rails > legacy rails? We might be watching it happen in real time.

📈 Bitcoin’s Realized Cap Hits All-Time High – But Momentum Slows
BTC’s realized capitalization just hit a record $872B — showing how much actual capital flowed into the network.
However, according to Glassnode, monthly growth has slowed to just +0.9%.
💡 That means capital is still flowing in, but investor risk appetite is cooling off.
Bullish vibes with a side of caution 🧠📉

💰 Public Bitcoin miners sold over 40% of their mined BTC in March — the largest sell-off since October 2024.
According to MinerMag, the move came as a response to rising economic pressure: higher energy prices, increasing hardware costs, and tighter margins. ⚡️💸
Despite the bull market, even miners are feeling the heat — and cashing in to stay afloat.

😐 JPMorgan: “Bitcoin failed to attract safe-haven demand.”
While gold ETFs saw a whopping $21.1B inflow in Q1 2025, Bitcoin is facing three straight months of ETF outflows and declining futures interest.
📉 BTC’s “digital gold” narrative is under pressure, analysts say — meanwhile, actual gold is thriving amid macro uncertainty, gaining support from both ETF and futures investors. 👀

🐋 An ancient Ethereum whale just woke up after 3 years of silence!
Originally scooping up 76,000 ETH during the ICO at just $0.31 per coin, the whale has now moved 6,000 ETH (~$9.55M) and sold half for $4.78M.
Even with a sweet ROI, the missed profit potential over the years is still jaw-dropping. 🤷

🎰 Ex-JPMorgan & Galaxy exec Richard Kim got arrested by the FBI — turns out, he gambled investors’ $4.3M instead of building his crypto casino, Zero Edge.
Spoiler:the casino never launched .
💸 $3.8M went straight to crypto trading and online gambling sites, while Kim told investors their funds were safe.
He admitted he started “chasing losses” after losing $80K in a phishing scam. SEC got a confession, but the feds got the cuffs.
Even Galaxy, his former employer, got burned — and reported him themselves.
He’s out on $250K bail, but the charges? Fraud and wire fraud. Zero Edge, indeed. 😬

📉 What’s Holding Bitcoin Back?
Despite BTC’s recovery from recent lows, the price isn't mooning just yet — and here's why: short-term holders are cashing out. 💰
These quick-profit investors are using every bounce to lock in gains, creating constant selling pressure that’s putting a cap on Bitcoin’s upward momentum.
So while BTC’s trying to climb, short-term profit-takers keep pulling it back down. 🤷

🚀 $155K Bitcoin? Gold Says It’s Possible
Bitcoin may be down ~10% YTD, but analysts say don’t count it out — it’s showing gold-like strength and might just follow its shiny cousin to new highs. ✨
📊 According to Cryptollica, BTC is mirroring gold’s pattern and could break out to $155K soon.
🔎 Glassnode agrees: despite recent volatility, Bitcoin is holding up impressively — especially compared to past -50% crashes during global turmoil.
With a falling dollar, rising global money supply, and BTC acting more like “digital gold,” the setup for a moon mission might already be in play. 📈

💸 Bybit Hack Update: $380M Vanished into the Shadows
Bybit CEO confirms that over 28% ($380M) of the funds stolen in the Lazarus hack are now untraceable. 😶🌫️
The stolen ETH was funneled through mixers like Wasabi, Tornado Cash, Railgun, and washed via cross-chain bridges: THORChain, LI.FI, Stargate, SunSwap & others.
In the final stage, Lazarus cashed out via P2P and OTC platforms — poof, crypto turned fiat.
📅 The $1.4B hack (500K ETH) hit Bybit in February. Tracking the money trail? Good luck. 🕵️♂️

🇺🇸 SEC hits the brakes on crypto crackdowns
In just 3 months of 2025, the SEC has quietly dropped 11 major investigations into crypto firms — including long-running cases like Ripple (since Dec 2020) and newer ones like Cumberland (Oct 2024).
Timing? Not a coincidence. Paul Atkins, Trump’s pick, has officially been sworn in as the new SEC Chair. 🪙💼

📉 Bitcoin is still feeling the pressure from long-term holders cashing out — but there’s a light at the end of the tunnel. 🧐
According to Glassnode, if this sell pressure drops just 0.1% more, we’ll see a rare yellow bar on the chart — a historic signal that BTC has exited the "distribution zone." 🟡
Major sell-offs this cycle happened around $50K and $97K.
So while the BTC ship is still docked in Bear Harbor, it might soon set sail into open bullish waters. 🚢🌊

⛏️ Gold vs Bitcoin: Scarcity Showdown Until 2100
A new supply chart reveals it all — while gold mining will keep increasing, Bitcoin is becoming truly scarce. Digital gold is tightening the screws. 💥
Meanwhile, gold just hit a new ATH: $3,419 📈
And in China, they’re taking profit-taking to the next level — introducing an ATM that melts gold. 🔥
Drop in a gold item, it tests purity, melts it in 30 mins, and pays you for the clean metal. 💸
Nice way to lock in gains at the peak, right? 😉
