This is another one of those days where Bitcoin price stagnation is not remotely indicative of how interesting the past 24 hours have been! On the Bitcoin front, Fidelity Digital Assets no longer considers it “cheap.” Still, we’re reminded that BTC’s major price gains are typically at the tail-end of a bull cycle, and we’re somewhere near the start. Bitcoin’s fees crashed back to earth after the halving, not that Peter Schiff noticed, as he again called Bitcoin a “failure.” Elsewhere, two SEC lawyers were allegedly forced to resign after a judge found a “gross abuse” of power by the agency in its case against Debt Box, and the SEC wants $5.3 billion from Terraform Labs and Do Kwon. Meanwhile, memecoin madness continues!
