🇺🇸🔥 US Treasury clarifies: Bitcoin purchases still on the table
After spooking the market with comments that wiped $55B off BTC’s cap, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent clarified they’re still exploring budget-neutral ways to grow the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve — fulfilling Trump’s vision of making the US a “Bitcoin superpower.” 💰
📝 Current plan: build the reserve from confiscated BTC (already worth $15–20B) and stop selling holdings. Extra buys may come from gold certificate revaluation or tariff revenue — but Congress approval is needed.
⏳ Critics say five months of “exploring” looks like stalling, warning other nations could front-run the US. Still, the Treasury holds 198,012 BTC ($23.5B) and isn’t dumping anytime soon.

Monero tumbles over 10% amid 51% attack fears! 🙀 Earlier today, the Qubic mining pool — led by Sergey Ivancheglo — briefly controlled more than 52% of Monero’s hashrate (~ 3.0 GH/s), sparking alarm over a potential 51% takeover that could enable chain rewrites…
😳 After Monero, Qubic set sights on a new target — Dogecoin!
Last week, Qubic’s mining pool seized control of 51% of Monero’s hashrate, reorganizing 6 blocks. Now, following a community vote in Discord, Dogecoin (💰 $35B market cap) got 300+ votes, beating Kaspa and Zcash combined.
⚠️ Kraken has already paused Monero deposits after the attack, though trading and withdrawals remain open.
