Some commentators on X called it “sad.” Others used expletives. Either way, a video of Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin went viral and not in a good way. The crypto community on X.com, rarely known for decorum, blasted Buterin for kneeling before a robot and emitting what sounds like a “meow” sound. To some, the video underscored why one needs to be “bullish” about Ethereum’s present and future. To others, it was worthy of a Studio Ghibli-style photo edit. Most people kept scrolling. See below. In the brief clip, Buterin pats the robot on the head after making the unusual sound. While he has yet to comment on the video, the moment has ignited chatter, particularly given Ether’s recent price struggles. As of publication, Ether has dropped nearly 55% since reclaiming the $4,000 mark in December 2024, now trading at $1,833 — down over 8% in the past week. Some crypto figures have expressed concern, with commentator “The Count of Monte Crypto” humorously noting that the state of Ether’s price was more worrying than Buterin’s quirky behavior. And when Buterin tried posting about “how to fund public goods,” he was trolled by the crypto community with statements like: “NO ONE F–KING CARE[S]” and “YOU ARE THE ONLY FOUNDER THAT IS DOING 0 APART FROM DUMPING YOUR AIRDROPS! WAKE UP VITALIK.” It’s noteworthy that Buterin has long been known for being quirky and, according to a recent Bloomberg feature, “monkish.” But his behavior occasionally invites scrutiny. Iggy Azalea, for example, dissed Buterin for singing at TOKEN2049 in Singapore, calling it “loser s—.” Buterin is also not clear-cut in his political affiliation, which is somewhat refreshing for today’s polarized crypto traders. He has spoken openly against former SEC chair Gary Gensler as well as the dangers of “large-scale political coins” — seemingly a critique at Trump. Indeed, many crypto leaders have embraced Trump’s pro-crypto stance, but Buterin has distanced himself, rejecting what he called the “bronze-aged mindset” favored by some in the crypto community. With Ether facing uncertain prospects and Buterin’s actions fueling speculation, it remains unclear whether his personal brand of decentralization or his refusal to align with Trump’s crypto-friendly policies will shape Ethereum’s path forward.

Even if we close the CME gap before the day is over for $BTC don’t get your hopes up. We’d simply hit our heads against the 20EMA on the 4H and drop again most likely 😵‍💫

If want Bitcoin to go up just like this post (it’s shy)

The Shiba Inu ecosystem is about to cross a historic milestone. The Shibarium blockchain, a layer 2 solution dedicated to this crypto universe, is now nearing a billion transactions. As these lines are written, the counter shows over 992 million transactions, with a daily pace exceeding 3.8 million. Just a few more days, and Shibarium will enter the history books. Launched to alleviate congestion on Ethereum, Shibarium showcases impressive numbers: over 10 million blocks produced and 191 million unique addresses recorded. Within just a few months, this network has demonstrated an adoption capacity rarely seen in the crypto world. With a steady pace of 3.8 million transactions per day, Shiba Inu is poised to cross the symbolic threshold of a billion interactions on Shibarium in less than 48 hours. This performance confirms the explosive growth of this crypto ecosystem and its establishment in Web3. This surge is explained by an explosion in daily registrations on the blockchain: +4000% in active users, according to the latest official data. Shibarium is on track to become one of the most dynamic crypto networks in the decentralized sphere. Developers are already working on the next evolution of Shibarium: the creation of a layer 3 roll-up hub. The goal? To allow external developers to create their own customized blockchains while using the BONE token as fuel for transactions. An advancement that could redefine Shiba Inu’s role in the Web3 infrastructure. On the market side, the SHIB token, a pillar of the ecosystem, remains strongly correlated to the activity on Shibarium. Despite the usual volatility for a memecoin, the crypto community continues to massively support the project. If the billion transactions act as a media catalyst, it could also strengthen the long-term adoption of SHIB. Often relegated to the status of a joke by traditional investors, Shiba Inu proves here that it can play in the big leagues. A few months ago, Shibarium was losing 96% of its transactions . And today, the network is close to the symbolic milestone of a billion transactions. This demonstrates the vitality of a project that, despite criticisms and obstacles, moves forward with determination in the crypto universe.

$BTC The bull market is still alive as long as we hold the parabolic uptrend. In 2021, we saw a slow grind up followed by an explosive rally. This cycle, the move has been more balanced in both strength and timing. Bear in mind - if parabola breaks, we will most likely have a
