Deepfake clips featuring Binance’s Changpeng Zhao (CZ) and Yi He have gone viral, turning crypto forums into a mock-up of a very serious soap opera. These clips, though billed as satire, look so life-like that even the most sane person suspects a prank by a very persuasive telemarketer.
As we observe this tragicomedy, it appears that Cardano’s fortunes have not merely dipped but have taken a theatrical plunge, reminiscent of a stage actor forgetting his lines. The Open Interest, once a robust figure, is now but a shadow of its former self, collapsing under the weight of liquidated leveraged positions. Joao Wedson, a sage of the markets, has reported on this alarming trend, likening it to a sudden winter frost that lays waste to a once-bountiful harvest.
Currently, ADA is trading around $0.2670, with only slight price changes throughout the day. Its market value is close to $9.6 billion. While this is down from a high of over $3 in 2021, ADA still ranks as one of the largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization.

Ray Dalio, the man who sees economic doom in his soup, has a new prophecy: Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) are coming, and they’re bringing a front-row seat to your financial life. Appearing on the ‘Tucker Carlson Show’ (because where else would you discuss the end of privacy?), Dalio warned that CBDCs will make your bank account as private as a reality TV show. Cash? Crypto? Forget it. CBDCs are like a financial paparazzi, snapping every purchase, transfer, and late-night snack run.
Yi reminded us all that Binance is basically the superhero of the crypto universe; without it, newcomers might as well be trying to find their way out of a labyrinth blindfolded. She summarized how users react to this FUD barrage, which is about as predictable as a cat walking across a keyboard.
Apparently, Europe is having a quarter-life crisis over its reliance on foreign payment groups. The fear? If we have a diplomatic tantrum with the U.S., our financial system might throw a hissy fit. Gasp! Who knew Mastercard could be such a high-maintenance partner?
Bitcoin continued to trade within a narrow range on Monday, attempting to establish a crucial price level as support. After falling to a two-year low of $60,000 last week, the price of Bitcoin has recovered about 17.5%, fluctuating between $68,000 and $72,000 in recent days.
From a technical perspective, crypto has purged over $1 trillion in under a month, leaving investors rearranging their portfolios as if auditioning for a very dull play. And yet, the dip-buyers are on holiday; sentiment is more cautious than a cat in a cucumber patch.
Investors, once the life of the party, are now the designated drivers, cautiously eyeing their positions and muttering about “capital allocation.” It’s like watching a game of financial chess where everyone’s too afraid to make the next move, lest they knock over the board and wake the cat.
