Crypto Circus: BTC Flops & HYPE Rocks Back! 🎪🚀

Bitcoin Rollercoaster

Meanwhile, in the shadows of ruin, our dear altcoins-those poor misguided souls-follow the grand procession. ETH, once majestic, now wails a lament, descending from $3,900 to a lamentable $3,200-its 2025 victories swept away like a bad dream. But lo!

NYC Drifts Left, Crypto Cracks Nervous: Mamdani’s Win Shakes Markets 🦑💸

Yet, for crypto’s denizens, this red-letter day heralds a future where compliance is king and innovation cowers in the shadows. 🤷♂️
