HOT NEWS

🐣 Pump.fun: Delayed Again Because Why Not?

Solana's meme coin launchpad, Pump.fun, has once again delayed its token sale. Originally set for June 25, it's now pushed to mid-July. The reason? Legal challenges, social media suspensions, and a class-action lawsuit alleging market manipulation. Investors are thrilled, if by thrilled you mean "confused and slightly annoyed."

đŸ’„ Bitcoin's Rollercoaster: Ceasefire or Cease-For-Now?

Bitcoin's price jumped over $106,000 after a ceasefire announcement between Israel and Iran. But hold your horses, both sides reportedly violated it almost immediately. Yet, markets are partying like it's 2017. Is this a sign of optimism or just crypto's usual volatility?

🧠 Vitalik Buterin

Vitalik Buterin, the Canadian coder who turned a game rage-quit into a multi-billion-dollar revolution, is back in the news. From writing Bitcoin articles for 5 BTC (when that was worth a coffee) to creating Ethereum, his journey is as wild as a DAO vote.

đŸ‡ȘđŸ‡ș Kraken's EU Expansion: MiCA License Secured

Kraken has secured a MiCA license from the Central Bank of Ireland, allowing it to operate across all 30 European Economic Area countries. This move positions Kraken as a leader in the EU crypto space, just in time for the regulatory deadline. Because nothing says "prepared" like waiting until the last minute.
