Trump Media’s Truth Social BTC ETF Backed by Crypto.com to Uplift the Best Altcoins
Trump Media (parent company of Truth Social) has updated its Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing for the Truth Social Bitcoin ETF. The fund’s latest plan is to hold $BTC directly, with Crypto.com acting as the custodian, execution agent, and liquidity provider. If approved, the ETF would give investors direct exposure to $BTC’s price through publicly traded shares. Historically, Bitcoin ETF approvals spark demand for $BTC itself. And as the crypto leader, its success often fuels rallies for other coins as investors look to diversify their portfolios for broader gains. As hype builds, now could be a prime time to scoop up some of the best altcoins before their prices soar. Truth Social Bitcoin ETF to Challenge BlackRock’s $57.9B IBIT If all goes as planned, the Truth Social Bitcoin ETF would enter an extremely competitive space dominated by heavyweights like BlackRock’s IBIT, Fidelity’s FBTC, Bitwise’s BITB, and Ark Investment’s ARK. To put their weight into perspective, IBIT alone has attracted $57.9B in total inflows , followed by FBTC with $12.5B. The Truth Social Bitcoin ETF, however, has a competitive edge. Because it attaches the Truth Social brand to a regulated $BTC investment product, it brings together political influence, media reach, and crypto hype that’s tricky to replicate. Also, Crypto.com is the world’s third-largest exchange by trading volume . As such, its operational role adds credibility and scale to the fund, possibly attracting investors seeking a secure, well-managed Bitcoin ETF. This kind of high-profile Bitcoin ETF launch is bound to have a knock-on effect on the next crypto to explode . Especially altcoins tied to strong use cases, like Best Wallet ($BEST) , T-RIZE ($RIZE), and Snorter Token ($SNORT) . 1. Best Wallet Token ($BEST) – Supercharges Non-Custodial Wallet, Raises $16.4M+ on Presale As the crypto industry continues attracting attention, significantly propelled by Donald Trump’s Web3 advocacy , this could be your best chance yet to join the Best Wallet Token ($BEST) presale. Because $BEST is the backbone of the Best Wallet app , a feature-rich non-custodial crypto wallet, it has already raised a hefty $14.6M+ on presale. As crypto adoption accelerates, the mobile app (available on iOS and Android) is a go-to hub for buying, managing, and swapping over 1K+ digital assets – all while having complete control over your private keys. In fact, its ‘Cross-Chain Swaps’ feature promises to give you the best rates and lowest fees, thanks to its integration with 330 decentralized exchanges and 30 bridges. The wallet currently supports major chains like Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, and Polygon. However, it’ll soon expand across 60 networks, so you can access diverse DeFi opportunities and enjoy even faster, cheaper transactions in one place. All is achieved without compromising security. It utilizes Fireblocks’ MPC security technology , enabling you to secure cloud backups of all your multi-chain wallets. Doing so ensures easy account recovery and protection against hacks or single points of failure. And the excitement doesn’t end there. Best Wallet has tons to look forward to in the pipeline, including the debuts of its very own crypto debit card (Best Card), NFT gallery, and market intel analytics. For the full suite of perks, however, you’ll want to snag some $BEST. Then, you can enjoy staking rewards at a 92% APY, governance rights, lower gas fees, and exclusive access to the best crypto presales . $BEST is available on presale for just $0.025475. If it continues to roll out the developments promised on its roadmap, plus if Trump keeps advocating for crypto, it could reach $0.62 next year . When taking into account that the upside here could surpass 2,333%, now’s a great time to join $BEST at its lowest current price tag. 2. T-RIZE ($RIZE) – Powers RWA Tokenization, Jumps 33% Since Revolut Listing $RIZE is the linchpin of T-RIZE, a decentralized platform that makes it easy and compliant to tokenize and trade real-world assets (RWAs). By allowing RWAS owners to bring their projects on-chain – like real estate, infrastructure, and private equity – the platform allows you to buy fractional ownership. This way, you can invest in high-value assets at a fraction of the price, all while benefiting from the blockchain’s transparency. T-RIZE is already backed by over $2B in tokenized assets and partnerships across 150 countries, connecting asset owners to global investors through regulatory primary and secondary markets. Its native token, $RIZE, powers transaction fees, governance, premium feature access, and AI-driven insights. As such, its success hinges on T-RIZE’s success. Since T-RIZE announced that $RIZE is now listed on the Revolut app , its price has jumped by more than 33% in just 24 hours. With $RIZE tapping into Revolut’s 60M+ global users, now signals a good opportunity to purchase the token for around $0.063 before it continues attracting more attention. 3. Snorter Token ($SNORT) – Enjoy Unlimited Sniping in Upcoming Telegram Trading Bot Snorter Token ($SNORT) is the native token of Snorter Bot, a cutting-edge trading bot primed to launch on Telegram this quarter. It’ll initially gear up on Solana, promising the lowest fees (0.85%) and fastest execution on the network compared to other bots, including Maestro and Trojan. Afterward, it’ll expand multi-chain, including Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, and Base. By doing so, it’ll enable you to trade promising projects across major networks through a single, streamlined interface. From the get-go, it’ll give you access to advanced features like copy trading, limit orders, and automated sniping so you can explore hot opportunities quickly to help boost your gains. Security is also a top priority, with MEV protection and scam filters for honeypots and rug pulls. Given that rug pulls accounted for 68% of all crypto-related scams in Q1 2025, the bot’s protective measures are increasingly necessary. For the ultimate Snorter Bot experience, purchasing $SNORT is the way to go. Its presale has already raised over $3M, thanks to unlocking perks like unlimited sniping, staking rewards at a 146% APY, and governance rights in its upcoming DAO . $SNORT is currently up for grabs for just $0.1009. Once listed on the best crypto exchanges , it’s a nticipated to hit $0.94 . So, now could be a prime time to buy $SNORT for possible 831%+ returns. Verdict – Truth Social Bitcoin ETF to Boost the Best Altcoins Trump Media’s Truth Social Bitcoin ETF filing goes beyond being another investment instrument. If it launches, it’s primed to inject fresh capital and attention into the entire crypto market. Not only is it anticipated to benefit $BTC but also lift altcoins with strong fundamentals, like $BEST , $RIZE, and $SNORT . Whether you’re interested in crypto wallet perks, RWA ownership, or trading tools, they each provide access to high-potential sectors that benefit from broader market growth. This isn’t investment advice. DYOR and never invest more than you’re willing to lose.

Bitcoin: The Last Rally Is Loading
Summary I remain bullish on Bitcoin, maintaining a Buy rating with a cycle price target of $175,000 and a bull case of $300,000 before 2026. We are in the euphoria stage, evidenced by rampant crypto IPOs, mergers, and proliferation of treasury companies. Despite signs of exuberance, macro conditions and strong demand from treasury companies suggest another major rally is likely before a cycle-ending bear market. Bitcoin ( BTC-USD ) has outperformed nearly everything since 2023 when I published the article about why I was buying the tulips with both hands . The comments at the time showed a good amount of skepticism and mockery. Fortunately, cogent investment analysis and subsequent outperformance is based on objective facts and logical synthesis about how the world in fact works, not on preconceived biases about how the world ought to work. I've been publicly bullish on BTC for 2 years now and despite being over 100% invested (over 100% because I had borrowed money to buy more) in BTC and MSTR for well over a year, I feel little satisfaction that I have been correct because much of my family and friends unfortunately did not heed my many admonitions to come with me on this Bitcoin journey. A few are now coming back and expressing their regret for not being earlier. Most concerning is that some are now expressing their exuberant enthusiasm for starting right now. To me, this is a telltale sign that the end of this cycle is finally beginning. This missive is an update on Bitcoin and my thoughts on where we are in the cycle. I believe we have fully entered the euphoria stage and I expect a serious downturn from much higher levels to start within 9 months. I am still recommending a Buy because I believe there remains significant upside even right now, however I will focus the analysis on the sensitive time horizon that I have just detailed. Signs of Euphoria The biggest signs of euphoria have been the number of IPOs within the crypto space and the proliferation of unprofitable businesses raising money to become crypto treasury companies. IPOs tend to happen in the latter stages of a cycle because companies can raise capital at better terms when the sentiment is bullish and risk-on. People buy rather indiscriminately because they think stuff will just keep going up. The Circle ( CRCL ) IPO was a very big deal because it came quite close to the GENIUS act and benefited from the positive sentiment around stablecoin clarity. If we just glanced at the numbers with some level of objectivity, we can see that the valuation has been buoyed by some incredibly optimistic expectations. This is what I had to say about CRCL in a tweet back in June: USDC has a $62B market cap. CRCL has $39B. CRCL's revenue is the interest on the T bills which back the supply of USDC. More precisely, it is HALF the interest, because Coinbase actually gets 50% of USDC revenue. If USDC makes 5% on $62B in T bills, Circle gets $1.5B in revenue. So the company is trading at over 25X sales… The PMF is bad. And if it isn't bad, then it will definitely be unprofitable, which is just bad in another way. Why? Internationally, there is high demand for dollars. But this market is serviced by $USDT. The only markets for $USDC are USA and Europe (and Europe is only because of Tether not wanting to do the MiCA stuff). But these places have good banking systems. People can use PayPal, Venmo, Revolut, CashApp, SEPA, Zelle, FedNow, etc. There's actually no need or desire for onchain dollars. The only way to make stablecoins attractive in these areas is to do what Coinbase is currently doing: offer some yield for holding USDC. Currently Coinbase offers 4.1%. That's basically the full yield from T bills. By now you can likely see the problem. USDC cannot compete in markets where it is needed, because USDT dominates. And it can ONLY compete in markets where it is NOT needed (USA and Europe) by giving away all its earned interest, thus rendering the business unprofitable. This kind of stretched valuation is caused by euphoria. But CRCL isn't the only crypto IPO. Strategy ( MSTR ) has been doing some big ones all year on 4 different preferred offerings. Here is a picture from Strategy showing the biggest IPOs in 2025. Two of Strategy's preferred offerings are in the top 10. IPOs in 2025 (Strategy) I remain really bullish on Strategy and its preferred offerings, and I think it is the most misunderstood story in all of corporate finance. However, the fact that their IPOs are so successful and these credit instruments don't have official credit ratings means that much of the enthusiasm probably comes from retail that buys anything in traditional finance with a strong crypto tilt. Every crypto cycle has had its own cycle's narrative. In 2021 it was all about NFTs and DeFi. Back in 2017 it was all about ICOs. In 2024 there was a brief craze about tokenized AI agents and a brief craze about memecoins. But in reality, the biggest narrative during this cycle has been the institutionalization of crypto. Crypto has gone mainstream and traditional institutions are now becoming involved. MSTR being the best performing stock compared to any company in the S&P 500 is an incredible story. BlackRock flipping the script and pushing for Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs is an incredible story. The President and First Lady of the United States launching their own memecoins is an incredible story. Anything that resembles crypto becoming mainstream and getting adopted within a context that would have been very unexpected back in 2021 is precisely "the item" this time around. That is where the euphoria coalesces and where we see a huge amount of capital coming into it. This brings me to treasury companies. I wrote a piece in mid-2024 about why treasury companies are the most impactful development in Bitcoin this cycle. Back then there weren't a lot of Bitcoin treasury companies. In fact, there were only MicroStrategy (back then it had not changed to "Strategy" yet), Semler Scientific, and Metaplanet. A fun fact is that Metaplanet went on to be the number 1 performing stock in the entire world in 2024 . These companies explicitly tapped capital markets to increase BTC per share. Later that year, a bunch of other companies announced that they would be doing the Bitcoin acquisition strategy that MSTR had pioneered. They obviously wanted to mimic the outperformance of MSTR and Metaplanet. Fast forward to today, August 2025, and companies from several international markets are announcing their plans to raise capital to purchase BTC. Here's a short list of them: H100 in Sweden The Smarter Web Company in UK The Blockchain Group in France K33 in Hong Kong In the US, we've had GameStop ( GME ) and Trump Media ( DJT ) raise capital to buy BTC in 2025. The success of the Bitcoin treasury strategy as a marketing tool and value creation engine has captured the minds of many in the crypto sector. The result has been treasury companies on various other crypto tokens like Ether ( ETH-USD ) and Solana ( SOL-USD ). Most are backed by a ton of hype. A big influencer is often the face of the company. The company raises a few hundred million to a few billion dollars. And we tend to see the stock rocket higher. It's outside the scope of this article to get into the economic merits of crypto treasury companies using non-BTC cryptos. I will simply say the following about the current rise of hype-focused, otherwise unprofitable crypto treasury companies: this is a telltale sign of the euphoria stage. In any euphoric stage, the tremendous buildup going into it has a lot of sidelined people thinking that they ought to jump in. The early investors of the cycle, who are often considered "smart money," are looking for exit liquidity. The use of IPOs, mergers, acquisitions, and the promises of a "new paradigm" where "this time things are different" are all actions partly done for the purpose of generating this exit liquidity. Crypto treasury companies going public via SPAC or mergers are becoming more common in 2025. PIPE (private investment in public equity) investors are able to cash out after the public announcement of some treasury strategy. On top of that, even investors who buy in days after the announcement have tended to enjoy gains thanks to the positive sentiment. This level of excitation simply cannot be sustained because markets are ultimately made up of people. The social mood can be energetic for a while, but it eventually turns on itself as the people themselves get exhausted. The current environment is one where a new Treasury company can be announced each week. Influencers soon announce that they have joined the board or are otherwise involved as some kind of Bitcoin affiliate, champion, or director for the company. The stock rallies hard. All of this takes an enormous amount of energy for people to keep up with, which is precisely why the market regime never lasts long. To summarize, I'm not saying that IPOs or treasury companies will cause a bear market via fraud or being forced to liquidate a huge amount of BTC. I am saying that their widespread proliferation is a sign of approximately where we are in the cycle. Another Rally I believe we will see another powerful rally in BTC before it begins the cycle-ending bear market. I believe this for a few reasons: Macro looks good. 2025 has been a strange year where the tariffs made it a very bearish market and then their resolution made it a very bullish one. There are no major issues in inflation, jobs, or any other macro-level data. The Fed is holding rates steady, and this isn't a big deal. A Fed chair that President Trump appoints will likely be more encouraging for a risk-on market since the President is so insistent on cutting rates. As long as macro stays dovish, there should not be issues for BTC. Next, crypto treasuries aren't slowing down. This is ultimately still the biggest driver of demand. We've seen confirmed sales of up to 80,000 BTC absorbed by the market with negligible issues. This demonstrates enormous demand for BTC. Unlike what many naysayers are claiming, much of the Treasury companies are buying using equity raises. There is no "over-leverage" in the system and therefore not yet a buildup for a potential margin call cascade. Even the debt that is raised exists in the form of non-callable, long-term debt in the form of corporate bonds. Margin calls are therefore not a risk of Bitcoin treasury companies being forced to exacerbate the sell pressure in a BTC bear market. This brings me to the next point. Previous cycle tops have had strong indications of over-leverage in the derivatives markets. We do not see a very high basis in the futures market, nor do we see high funding rates in the perpetuals market (which would indicate leveraged long traders paying a premium for the leveraged exposure). BTC CME Basis (Velo) BTC funding rate (Velo) Here are the options data on BTC options traded on Deribit. IV Skew - BTC (Velo) Upside leverage in this case would look like calls IV being much higher than puts IV, indicating greater non-dealer demand for upside convexity. On this graph, the line would be well below the 0% horizontal axis. The current situation looks very neutral, indicating the leverage is yet to come. Here's another reason I think we're only in the early euphoria stage. Google Trends is a great indicator of general sentiment. The current search results are well off the prior cycle's peak and even at a lower point compared to where we have already been during this cycle. That brief uptick around November 2024 coincided with BTC breaking $100,000 and the election of the incredibly crypto-friendly President Trump. Google Trends (Google) It is true that many people are now using AI to search for stuff. This might skew the results between the last cycle and this cycle. However, I think that the clear uptick in November 2024, about 2 years after the release of ChatGPT, is a clear indication that Google Trends can still be a good sentiment meter. We are not at peak interest, and therefore not at peak euphoria. Risk The biggest risk for my Buy recommendation is the macro. Tariffs could come out very heavy-handed and spook investors, as they did in March and April 2025. Besides tariffs, I think it would be something very unexpected in macro, such as when the yen carried trade unwound last year. Conclusion I still rate BTC a Buy. My price target set for this cycle, back when it was under $55,000 and when I was still buying it hand-over-fist , was $175,000 before 2026. I believe this is still very possible and that things will heat up by the end of summer and continue into the year-end. As I laid out in that February 2024 article, I will start to hedge after $150,000. Please read the article to learn why I favor hedging over selling. My only change to this prognostication is that I would not be surprised at all if we go well over $250,000. Bitcoin's price action thus far has been very balanced, almost like any other macro asset like gold or the S&P 500. This is not how I would expect an absolutely scarce asset to behave when thinking from first principles. If supply is not a lever to adjust to demand, then everything must be absorbed by price alone. This dynamic, combined with options market reflexivity, which I covered in depth in this article , tells me that when the upward move truly comes, it should be quite violent and shocking. In that sense, I would keep the $175,000 prediction I made in February 2024 as my cycle base case, but add that $300,000 in a bull case.

Ethereum ETFs Witness Impressive Surge: Holding Nearly 8% of ETH Supply
BitcoinWorld Ethereum ETFs Witness Impressive Surge: Holding Nearly 8% of ETH Supply The cryptocurrency world is buzzing with significant news for Ethereum (ETH) holders and enthusiasts. Recent data reveals a dramatic shift in the ownership landscape, with Ethereum ETFs and corporate treasuries now controlling a substantial portion of the total ETH supply . This marks a pivotal moment, showcasing the increasing mainstream acceptance and investment in the second-largest cryptocurrency, solidifying its position in the broader financial ecosystem. What’s Driving the Impressive Surge in Institutional Ethereum Adoption? According to Strategic ETH Reserve.xyz, a remarkable 7.98% of the entire ETH supply is now held by Ethereum ETFs and strategic corporate reserves. This figure represents a significant leap from approximately 3% in early April, indicating a rapid acceleration in institutional interest and a clear signal of growing confidence in Ethereum’s future. This trend suggests that more sophisticated investors are actively allocating capital to digital assets like ETH. The underlying reasons are multifaceted, ranging from diversification strategies to long-term growth potential. This shift highlights a broader acceptance of cryptocurrencies as legitimate investment vehicles. ETF Balances Soar: ETF holdings alone have surged to an astounding 6.15 million ETH. This accounts for just over 5% of the total circulating supply. This rapid accumulation by funds like BlackRock’s ETHA and Fidelity’s Ethereum fund provides significant validation for the asset class. Credibility Boost: The participation of such prominent financial institutions lends considerable credibility to Ethereum, potentially paving the way for even wider adoption. This substantial accumulation by investment vehicles is a clear indicator of the deepening roots of institutional Ethereum adoption . Why Are Corporate ETH Treasuries Expanding Their Holdings? Beyond the rapid growth of Ethereum ETFs, a notable increase in corporate ETH treasuries is also contributing to this shift in ownership. Companies are increasingly diversifying their balance sheets to include digital assets, viewing them as a hedge against inflation, a strategic investment for future growth, or a means to align with technological innovation. Firms such as Bitmine Immersion Tech, The Ether Machine, and SharpLink Gaming have notably added to their Ethereum reserves, as reported by Decrypt. This strategic move by corporations highlights a forward-thinking approach to treasury management in an evolving digital economy. For these forward-thinking companies, holding ETH can offer several compelling advantages: Strategic Diversification: Reduces reliance on traditional fiat currencies and provides exposure to a new asset class. Potential Capital Appreciation: Allows companies to capitalize on Ethereum’s potential for significant growth as its ecosystem expands. Innovation Alignment: Positions the company at the forefront of blockchain technology, potentially fostering new business models or services. This growing trend of corporate accumulation further solidifies the foundation of institutional Ethereum adoption and underscores the perceived value of ETH beyond speculative trading. What Does This Mean for Ethereum’s Market Share and Future? The increasing control of ETH market share by institutional players has profound implications for the cryptocurrency landscape. As more ETH moves into long-term holdings by ETFs and corporate treasuries, it could potentially reduce the available circulating supply for retail investors and short-term traders. A reduced liquid supply, combined with sustained or increasing demand, often leads to upward price pressure and potentially lower volatility. This scenario could make Ethereum a more stable and attractive asset for a broader range of investors, further accelerating its mainstream acceptance. However, this concentration also means that major movements by these large holders could have a substantial impact on market dynamics. While it suggests maturity, it also centralizes a degree of influence. This is a natural evolution for any maturing asset class as it moves from niche to mainstream. This trend underscores Ethereum’s evolving role from primarily a speculative asset to a recognized store of value and a foundational technology for decentralized applications. It is a clear indicator that the crypto landscape is maturing rapidly, with institutions playing an ever-larger role in shaping the future of the ETH supply . In conclusion, the impressive surge in Ethereum holdings by both ETFs and corporate treasuries is a powerful testament to the growing institutional confidence in ETH. This significant shift in ETH supply dynamics points towards a more mature market and robust institutional Ethereum adoption . It suggests a future where Ethereum plays an even larger role in global finance and technology, driven by strong institutional backing and a growing ETH market share . Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) Q1: What is the current percentage of ETH held by ETFs and corporate treasuries? A1: Currently, Ethereum ETFs and corporate treasuries collectively hold nearly 8% (specifically 7.98%) of the total ETH supply. Q2: How has institutional holding of ETH changed recently? A2: Institutional holdings have significantly increased from approximately 3% in early April to nearly 8% today, indicating a rapid surge in interest. Q3: Which major funds are leading the accumulation of Ethereum ETFs? A3: BlackRock’s ETHA and Fidelity’s Ethereum fund are among the leading funds accumulating significant amounts of ETH through ETFs. Q4: What are the benefits for companies holding ETH in their treasuries? A4: Companies can benefit from strategic diversification, potential capital appreciation, and alignment with blockchain innovation by holding ETH in their treasuries. Q5: How might this trend impact the overall ETH market? A5: This trend could lead to reduced circulating supply, upward price pressure, and potentially lower volatility, making ETH a more stable asset for broader investment.

Could this $0.035 token beat AVAX’s 2025 returns? Analysts say yes
Bitcoin (BTC)’s halving cycles have historically sparked massive rallies in altcoins, with Avalanche (AVAX) (AVAX) emerging as one of the biggest winners during the 2021–2022 boom. As we approach the next major crypto cycle in 2025, investors are searching for projects that could outperform established names like Avalanche (AVAX). Mutuum Finance (MUTM) , a Layer-2 powered decentralized finance platform, is attracting increasing attention for its unique features and strong presale momentum. Analysts suggest MUTM’s specialized lending models and innovative stablecoin could deliver returns that challenge or exceed AVAX’s impressive gains. Dual lending system and decentralized stablecoin power MUTM’s potential Mutuum Finance (MUTM) is building around a dual lending system that sets it apart from many DeFi platforms. The Peer-to-Contract (P2C) lending pools will allow users to lend stable and blue-chip assets with relatively low risk, earning steady returns. For example, lending $18,000 worth of LINK tokens at a 10.1% annual percentage yield could generate $1,818 per year in interest. On the other side, the Peer-to-Peer (P2P) lending model targets more volatile assets like memecoins. A borrower pledging $9,000 in PEPE tokens at a 58% loan-to-value ratio can receive a $5,220 USDC loan at 15% interest for a 75-day term, illustrating the flexible and dynamic nature of MUTM’s lending options. Integral to this model is Mutuum Finance (MUTM)’s fully decentralized upcoming stablecoin. Built to maintain a $1 peg through strict overcollateralization and governance-controlled interest rates, it will enable users to borrow and lend with confidence. The system will automatically adjust rates and trigger liquidations to ensure the stablecoin’s price stability, supported further by arbitrage incentives for market participants. This stablecoin will add a crucial layer of utility and security, driving user engagement and token demand. Moreover, users will be able to stake mtTokens — the platform’s interest-bearing tokens — in dedicated smart contracts to earn MUTM rewards. Future platform revenue will fund open market buybacks of MUTM tokens, which will then be redistributed to stakers, creating a sustainable ecosystem where long-term holders benefit from increased demand and reduced circulating supply. Strong presale momentum and a clear path forward Currently in Phase 6 of its presale, Mutuum Finance (MUTM) has already raised $14.3 million at a price of $0.035 per token. The project enjoys a strong community with more than 15,100 holders and has sold only 15% of Phase 6 tokens, leaving ample opportunity for new investors. However, the price will increase by 15% to $0.040 in Phase 7, making this phase the last chance to buy MUTM at a discounted rate. An example of the project’s growth potential is an investor who bought tokens in Phase 2 at $0.015 using Ethereum (ETH). That investor has already more than doubled their initial stake at the current price level. When the token lists at $0.06, its return will hit 300%, and with a projected 12x increase in the year following the listing, this investment will rival the early returns seen with Avalanche (AVAX). Mutuum Finance (MUTM)’s well-structured roadmap supports this promising outlook. Phase 1 focused on presale launch, marketing, and securing the CertiK audit. Phase 2 is developing smart contracts and analytics tools. Phase 3 will bring testnet releases, further audits, and exchange listing preparations. Phase 4 aims to launch the full platform with token claims, multiple exchange listings, bug bounty operations, and multichain expansions. The platform’s audit results reflect a strong security posture with a CertiK score of 95 and a Skynet score of 78, ensuring investor confidence. Additionally, a $100,000 giveaway and a $50,000 USDT bug bounty program are planned to incentivize community growth and robust security testing. Why MUTM could outperform Avalanche (AVAX) in 2025 Avalanche (AVAX)’s rise was driven by its broad platform capabilities, but as DeFi matures, targeted solutions like Mutuum Finance (MUTM)’s dual lending and stablecoin integration are gaining favor. MUTM’s ability to service both conservative and high-risk users with tailored lending models, combined with its sustainable tokenomics featuring staking rewards and protocol-funded buybacks, will set it apart from generalist competitors. With Bitcoin (BTC)’s halving historically triggering waves of innovation-driven growth, Mutuum Finance (MUTM) is positioned to capitalize on this momentum. The protocol’s upcoming unique features, solid security credentials, and aggressive roadmap execution are factors that could drive significant token appreciation in the coming years. Investors looking to capture returns similar to or greater than Avalanche (AVAX)’s 2021 surge should seriously consider Mutuum Finance (MUTM) as a strategic addition to their portfolio.

Is a Crash Coming for This Privacy-Focused Altcoin? Ledger CTO Issues Statement on Recent Events! Here Are the Details
Ledger CTO Charles Guillemet stated in a statement on the X platform that the privacy-focused cryptocurrency Monero was subjected to a successful 51% attack as of this morning. Ledger CTO: 51% Attack on Monero Network Alleged Launched in 2014, Monero has long been a target of governments and law enforcement agencies around the world and has been mostly delisted from major centralized exchanges. According to Guillemet, a mining pool called Qubic has been steadily increasing the network's processing power (hash rate) for months, gaining a majority share today. A major blockchain reorganization event was detected this morning. It was stated that with this power, Qubic could arbitrarily rewrite the blockchain, perform double-spend attacks, and censor any transactions it wanted. The daily cost of sustaining such an attack is estimated to be around $75 million. Guillemet emphasized, however, that while the potential gains are substantial, such an attack would almost immediately undermine the Monero network's foundation of trust, potentially leading other miners to lose their incentives and withdraw from the network. Ledger’s CTO described the situation as “the $300 million Qubic chain taking over the $6 billion Monero chain.” According to Guillemet, Monero’s options are extremely limited, and the possibility of a complete collapse is not only possible, but inevitable. *This is not investment advice.
