It will be interesting to see how the Bitcoin situation evolves over time.
Never a boring day in the space, that's for sure :)
he news focusing on Leofinance and the strategies towards making the value of LEO sustainably go up is an interesting one. When implemented, it will be another great step to draw more investors to the LEO economy.

It would be nice if the SECC would just get out of crypto's way.
I wonder if this craze around Ordinals will last or will fade as quickly as it's started
