⏫ Fartcoin Soars 99% Weekly, Becomes Top Gainer Amid Market Chaos

Fartcoin surged nearly 99% in a week and 30% in a day, decoupling from the broader altcoin market after Trump’s tariff pause. Now the third-largest Solana meme token with a $900M FDV, FARTCOIN’s rally has been fueled by AI-driven hype and high liquidity — proving once again that, in crypto, hot air really does rise.

Ripple is reportedly proposing to pay its reduced $50 million SEC penalty using XRP tokens, according to CEO Brad Garlinghouse. The move, revealed during FOX Business talks, comes as both parties reach a preliminary settlement after years of legal battles.

🔻Only a 37% Chance to Profit from Binance Listings in 2025

A deep dive into all tokens listed on Binance in 2025 reveals a sobering stat: even under perfect conditions (buying on Day 1, selling the top), the chance of making a profit is just 37%.

Key reasons for the poor performance:

• Binance likely charges hefty listing fees, pressuring teams to deliver hype over substance.

• For many projects, the entire narrative is built around “getting listed”, not long-term value.

• The listing itself becomes the final pump, often followed by a prolonged downtrend.

The days of easy listing flips may be over.

CZ Predicts Bitcoin Will Hit $1M—But Warns It Won’t Be Fast

Bitcoin has bounced back to $85,000, and Binance co-founder CZ believes it’s only the beginning. In a recent interview, he predicted Bitcoin will eventually hit $1 million—just not overnight.

CZ says wealthy nations will lead the race to buy BTC as a reserve asset, pushing the price up dramatically. He cautions that the market is still young and big gains take time.

Other big names back the thesis: Jack Dorsey sees $20T market cap by 2030, while Ark’s Cathie Wood targets $1.5M BTC by decade’s end.
