💸 FTX Payouts Start Today – Solana Already Down 10%!
FTX is beginning repayments to users with losses under $50K, distributing a total of $16B over the next few months.
But here’s the catch: Payouts are based on 2022 bottom prices:
⚡️ 1 BTC? You get $20K, not $100K or 1 BTC 💀
⚡️ ETH holders lucked out—price barely changed 😂
🔥 Solana holders didn’t wait—with $1.8B in SOL set to hit the market on March 1, they’ve already started dumping. $SOL is down 10% in 24h!
Brace for more volatility. 🚀📉

🐶 D.O.G.E. to Audit the SEC? Only in 2025.
The Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E.) is set to audit the SEC—because, apparently, even regulators need "efficiency checks." 😂
To make it even more surreal, there’s now an official Twitter account for this operation.
At this point, Elon’s gotta be behind this, right? 🤔🔥

📉 ETH Reserves on Exchanges Hit 9-Year Low – Supply Shock Incoming?
Ethereum on exchanges has dropped to 18.95M ETH, the lowest since 2016, signaling a possible supply squeeze. Less ETH available + strong demand = 🚀?
💡 What’s happening?
🔹 Investors are moving ETH to cold storage (bullish sign)
🔹 If ETH breaks $2,800, over $822M in short positions get liquidated 📈
🔹 A potential Ethereum staking ETF could further tighten supply
So, is ETH about to pump? Or is it just another hopium overdose? 🤔🔥

💸 Libra Co-Creator Claimed He Paid Milei’s Sister!
Hayden Davis, co-creator of the $LIBRA memecoin, allegedly bragged in texts that he bought influence over Argentina’s President Javier Milei by sending money to his sister, Karina Milei. 🤯
🔹 "I send $$ to his sister, and he does what I want." – Davis in leaked messages
🔹 Davis & Kelsier Ventures made over $100M before $LIBRA crashed 95%
🔹 Milei is now in damage control mode, while Argentina’s opposition threatens impeachment
Davis now denies everything, calling it a political attack—but receipts don’t lie. Did Milei rug Argentina, or did Davis rug Milei? 🤔🔥

🚀 Saylor Goes Full DeFi – Another $2B for Bitcoin!

🔹 Strategy has been buying BTC 12 out of the last 14 weeks 🏗

📊 BTC Buy-In Levels by Investor Groups – CryptoQuant
CryptoQuant analyzed the average BTC purchase prices across key investor categories:
🔹 Funds & Custodians: $89K
🔹 Binance Traders: $59K
🔹 Public Miners: $57K
🔹 Old Whales: $25K
💡 The data raises questions—CryptoQuant’s methodology remains unclear. The CEO admitted Binance trader prices are based on deposit addresses, but the criteria for old whales and mining firms weren’t disclosed.
📉 Historically, when BTC dropped below miners' cost basis (May 2022, March 2020, Nov 2018), bear markets followed. However, CryptoQuant’s CEO doesn’t see a bear phase in 2025, even if BTC falls 30% from ATH (e.g., $110K → $77K).
🔍 Takeaway? Some overpaid, some got in cheap—but the long-term bet is still on BTC’s growth. 🚀

📊 Bitcoin’s price movement is raising suspicions of market manipulation. 👀
Despite billions in institutional inflows, Bitcoin has been range-bound between $92,400 and $106,500 for over two months. 📈📉
Samson Mow, CEO of Jan3, suggests the price action appears "manufactured," noting that the tight range doesn't seem natural. 🤔
Mow attributes the stagnation to "price suppression," where steady upward movement is followed by sideways consolidation.
Despite the lack of upside, Bitcoin’s long-term outlook remains positive, with predictions of prices reaching $160,000–$180,000 in 2025. 🚀
However, Mow warns that continued price suppression may be linked to significant selling at the margins. 🧐

⚖️ Nigeria sues Binance for $81.5B!

Mark Cuban Backs Out of Meme Coins! 🚫🐸
💵 Billionaire Mark Cuban was considering launching his own meme token but has now shelved the idea, saying the space lacks transparency and fairness.
His decision comes after Argentina's President Milei got caught in a meme coin scandal, where the team behind $LIBRA pulled a $100M rug. Meanwhile, Trump’s token is still going strong, and Cuban once joked about using meme coin revenue to reduce U.S. debt. 💰
Looks like Cuban doesn’t want to play "musical chairs" with meme coins. But in crypto, never say never… 👀

According to CryptoQuant CEO, altseason has begun! 🚀
No direct BTC-to-alt rotation, but stablecoin holders are favoring alts. Alt volume is 2.7x BTC. BTC Dominance no longer defines alt season—trading volume does.
It’s a very selective alt season tho. DYOR.

A former employee of Bybit's service provider was sentenced to 10 years in prison for a $5,700,000 fraud! 🚓💰
A former fintech employee in Singapore, Ho Kai Xin, scammed $5.7M, mostly in crypto, by editing Excel payroll files to funnel funds into her own wallets. She splurged on a $3.7M penthouse, a Mercedes-Benz, and Louis Vuitton goods—until reality caught up. 💵💃
⚖️ Ho was sentenced to nearly 10 years in jail, but not before ignoring court orders and blowing another $840K. ByBit managed to recover some funds, but millions remain missing. 🤷
