Ripple, which only recently entered the stablecoin race, has quickly gained traction. Its dollar-pegged RLUSD—launched in late 2024—has already reached a $500 million market cap, a milestone it crossed this week. BNY Mellon has been named custodian of the asset, signaling Ripple’s intent to align closely with traditional financial standards.

According to the most reliable sources, such as CoinMarketCap, the trading volume has increased by a massive 111.37% over the last 24 hours, reaching the sum of $1.11 billion. This spike, one must admit, aligns with the price increase of the asset, which has continued its upward movement within this time frame, much to the delight of its many admirers.

After much suspense—riveting for those who passionately debate whether a digital dollar keeps better under the mattress or in a trillion-dollar fortress—Ripple at last revealed the custodian of its RLUSD funds. No random piggy bank, but rather BNY, that ancient cathedral of finance, will cradle the sum. Yes, the same BNY that juggles astronomical assets, probably without even breaking a sweat or a golden monocle.

In a series of posts on X, he stressed that his forecast, once seen as outlandish, now appears increasingly plausible, especially following BTC’s new all-time high of $112,152, reached just hours earlier.

Emirates, the flagship airline of the United Arab Emirates, has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Crypto.com, a major cryptocurrency platform, to explore the integration of Crypto.com Pay into its booking and payment systems. The rollout is not happening tomorrow, but if all goes according to plan, the feature could be live in 2026.

Ah, crypto presales! They are the new frontier, where fortune and doom waltz hand-in-hand like two old lovers. And today, my dear reader, it’s another day where Mastercard, Visa, and the ever-expanding ETFs promise us the world. Truly, it’s a revelation, as if they’ve unearthed new gold—only it’s digital. And yet, in this glittering sea of opportunity, these early-stage crypto projects are proving to be the shining stars, outshining even the likes of the old guard, Bitcoin. A true marvel!

Ah, meme coins! Grown men and speculative youths alike, hunched over glowing rectangles, moved not by love or art but by potent fumes of FOMO and dreams of a Lamborghini – a vehicle itself, surely, named by a poet. The prices are low, the risks are high, but hope, like the Russian winter, is eternal and unyielding. (And if you are reading this, the fates presume you, too, are partial to a little danger.)

It seems these elusive crypto whales have woken up from their slumber, just as a whole bunch of traders are feverishly making large bets on the market. A rather harmonious scenario for the XRP crowd, if you ask me. ☀️

And, as if on cue, the ancient, slumbering Bitcoin coins—those fossils of the past, untouched for nearly a decade—are awakening from their crypt-like dormancy. Oh, the drama! Who can resist the siren call of profit?

Markus, whose digital robes carry the moniker “Shibetoshi Nakamoto” (a jest so layered that the mere peasants of crypto-twitter must chortle in their fields), is renowned for gazing upon the world’s madness and replying with irony, sarcasm, and that weary, existential chuckle reserved for those who know too much yet own too little.
