GM. Crypto updates spill everywhere sometimes. Kind of like eating a pomegranate while wearing a white shirt.

Let’s pick out the seeds that matter and keep it clean:

🍍 Tension rises;

🛠️ Bitcoin Core passes big test;

🍋 Coinbase launches DeFi in Brazil, HSBC plans tokenized deposits in US/UAE + more

We’re in a kind of mood where traders aren’t sure whether to laugh, cry, or just close the app and hope for the best.

So, what happened? Bitcoin slipped to about $88.5K – its seven-month low – and the market tensed up.

Not because it was a huge move (it wasn’t), but because it was another reminder of how much air has leaked out since the $120K highs a few months back.

Every new low adds a little doubt, and this one definitely did.

Then… nothing dramatic happened.

BTC didn’t collapse into the 80s. It didn’t rocket higher either. It just hovered back into the $90K – $91K range and sat there like someone who tripped, caught themselves, and decided to stay still so nobody asks questions.

That stabilizing move wasn’t strength, though; it was more like an absence of follow-through selling.

Basically, the vibe is: nobody’s celebrating. Nobody’s capitulating. The big debate – “Is this actually a bear?” – is louder, but the past day didn’t answer that.

All we learned is that the market isn’t out of control. It’s not confident… but it’s not unraveling either.

🥝 Memecoin harvest

Charts pumping like they found pre-workout in the fridge 💥🏋️

Data as of 09:34 AM EST.

Check out these memecoins and plenty more here.

You know that one beat-up Toyota from the ’90s that refuses to die? The paint’s faded, the radio only gets two stations, and the AC makes a noise like a haunted blender – but turn the key, and it starts every. single. time.

That’s Bitcoin Core.

Not the shiny new thing. Not the trendy altcoin with neon marketing. Just the rock-solid software that’s been running the entire Bitcoin network since day one.

… And it just got its first-ever full independent security audit.

Quarkslab (a French cybersecurity firm that usually works with governments, defense contractors, and big companies) spent 100+ days combing through its code.

We’re talking about inspecting 200,000+ lines of C++ that have been built, rebuilt, and optimized for over a decade.

They cracked open the hood, checked the networking code, the mempool, the consensus engine, the peer-to-peer wiring – every dusty corner.

And after all that?

No major issues. Just two tiny recommendations.

That’s rare.

Like… really rare.

Big tech companies spend billions on security and still get wrecked. Bitcoin Core runs on volunteer contributions and open-source review – and just got a near-perfect grade from outside experts.

This is why Bitcoiners trust the system even though nobody owns it.

So, Bitcoin Core may not look like much on the surface.

But under the hood?

It’s the old engine that refuses to quit – and now it’s got paperwork proving it.

Now you’re in the know. But think about your friends – they probably have no idea. I wonder who could fix that… 😃🫵

Spread the word and be the hero you know you are!
