Oh joy, oh rapture! The crypto world is abuzz with the news that Grayscale, those masters of all things digital, has filed with the SEC to list its Digital Large Cap Fund as an ETF on NYSE Arca. Because, you know, we all need a way to invest in a basket of cryptocurrencies that includes the likes of bitcoin, ethereum, XRP, solana, and cardano.
Among the highlights of the Trump administration’s playbook is the artful imposition of tariffs, a move purportedly to balance the scales of trade justice. Yet, this dance of tariffs has left markets in a dizzying whirl, with even the stalwart economies like Russia finding themselves on the receiving end of tariff threats. The US, not one to shy away from a dance-off, has issued challenges to Canada, Mexico, China, and the European Union. In a twist of events, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has promised a retaliatory performance set for April3, following Trump’s tariff debut on April2.
And oh, they didn’t stop at just $1.3 billion; they went full throttle and exercised that $200 million greenshoe option too. After paying off the suits, GameStop’s walking away with a cool $1.48 billion. Not too shabby for a company that’s been more rollercoaster than retailer lately. 🎢💼

Mr. Genoot, in his infinite wisdom (or perhaps just a well-rehearsed line), proclaimed that this venture is not a mere infancy, but rather a “scaled mining operation from day one.” One can hardly believe the audacity of it! As if we haven’t all dreamed of a mining operation sprouting like a lily in a muck-laden bog, all thanks to the Trump family! 🌼
Despite a 3.96% rise in the global crypto market cap to a staggering $2.73 trillion, just a day prior, the market was in a state of disarray. Such is the life of a crypto enthusiast!
Like a sharp wind through brittle reeds, calamity struck today—UPCX found its coffers pillaged. A gaping molar of absence, night fell as 18.4 million UPC tokens, worth $70 million, flitted into shadowed obscurity. Prices tumbled like dizzied dancers, gasping on the wings of despair.
And just when you thought the crypto world was safe after the Bybit hack—surprise! It turns out they didn’t even go for Bybit directly. They decided to play a little game of “let’s breach SafeWallet instead.” I mean, who needs direct hits when you can just sneak in through the back door? Classic! 🙄
