📉 Arthur Hayes: The ICO mania of 2017 is evolving into an IPO frenzy for 2025–2027.

Referencing Circle’s recent IPO, Hayes warns this is just the beginning. He predicts a massive, overhyped crypto IPO — similar to EOS in 2017 — will suck in billions of fiat… and crash spectacularly on day one. 🤔

🔙 Reminder: EOS raised $4.2B in its ICO, only to face centralization issues and tech failures that crushed its token price by over 80% by 2019.

Now rebranded as Vaulta, the project aims to bury its troubled past by shifting toward Web3 banking and merging DeFi with TradFi. 👀

Hayes’ message: Don’t let IPO hype blind you — history might be repeating itself.

💰 Strategy has quadrupled its offering of perpetual preferred STRD shares — from $250M to a whopping $1 billion, priced at $85 per share

This major upsizing signals strong investor interest and gives Michael Saylor’s firm a huge capital boost. 🚀

As for where the money’s going? That’s not a mystery. Spoiler: it starts with a "B" and ends with "itcoin." 🟧

📈 Trump to Pump? 😁

Trump Media is reportedly planning to raise a whopping $12B — and rumor has it, part of the funds could be used to buy Bitcoin. 🤑

Following yesterday’s drama, BTC has already bounced back above $104K — and if this Trump-fueled liquidity wave hits, we might be in for another wild ride. 🌊

🇯🇵 Metaplanet plans to raise $5.3B through a record-breaking issuance of 555M shares via warrants to buy Bitcoin

🚀 96% of the funds will go toward BTC, with the goal of accumulating 210,000 BTC (~1% of total supply) by 2027.

The move is a hedge against Japan’s negative interest rates and yen devaluation. This is Japan’s largest-ever warrant issuance — and the first with floating strike prices. 🔥

Metaplanet already holds 8,888 BTC (~$920M), with an average entry price of ~$108K. Its stock ($3350 TSE) has surged 5,000% over the past year — a wild comeback after a decade-long slump.📈

💰 Paolo Ardoino boasts: If Tether went public today, it would be worth around $515B, according to Artemis analysts. 🧐

That would make it the 19th most valuable company in the world — ahead of giants like Oracle, Costco, and Coca-Cola. 💪 Stablecoins are no joke anymore.

📊 CryptoQuant: The market has entered a wait-and-see mode — spot trading volume on exchanges has dropped to its lowest level since October 2020.

Coins aren’t moving or being sold on-chain, which eases sell pressure — but demand is weak too. 🤷

Now, everything hinges on futures market activity. 👀

🧙‍♂️ Crypto Twitter is still holding the line — the faithful believe the altcoin season is coming… any moment now

💸 MicroStrategy has added another 1,045 BTC to its stash, spending $110.2M at an average price of $105,426 per coin

This brings their total holdings to 582,000 BTC — with an average buy price of a “comfortable” $70,086.

Still stacking, no matter the market. 🚀

📈 The Michael Saylor effect is spreading fast — a wave of companies is diving into Bitcoin:

🇨🇦 Belgravia Hartford bought 4.86 BTC for $500K at $102,848/BTC.
🇺🇸 BitMine Immersion (BMNR) just acquired 100 BTC after its IPO.

🇯🇵 ANAP is going all-in, aiming to hold 1,000 BTC by August 2025 — already secured 584.9 BTC in funding.

Bitcoin is becoming corporate treasury gold 2.0. 🚀

🚀 Last night, Bitcoin suddenly surged to $110,650 — triggering a wave of liquidations totaling nearly $450M, with shorts making up the bulk ($387M). 🤷

Since then, BTC has slightly corrected to around $109,400.

🔌 Features include:

• Plugin support for various miners, containers, and power systems
• Dev-friendly modular architecture
• Integration with Tether’s AI-powered QVAC analytics tool

Tether hopes MOS will empower small & mid-sized miners, especially those using surplus energy like solar.
