This Week on Crypto Twitter: Farcaster, Vision Pro, Dencun, Oh My!

Illustration by Mitchell Preffer for Decrypt Crypto Twitter’s inhabitants spent the week fawning over life on another platform—Farcaster, the ascendent decentralized social media protocol—as well as other novel tech innovations.  In a matter of days, Farcaster catapulted from relative obscurity to crypto industry darling, principally thanks to the debut of a novel feature on the network—Frames—that allows users to play games, mint NFTs, and make purchases while remaining in a social media feed....

This Week On Crypto Twitter: Twitter Payments Rumors, Donald Trump Fuels Meme Coin Rise

Illustration by Mitchell Preffer for Decrypt The Bitcoin spot ETF hangover has dissipated, and the tall, frothy mug of Ethereum spot ETF buzz is still being poured, leaving a lot of space at the crypto bar for talking, arguing, and the occasional brawl. We were probably overdue for an Elon Musk-related pump, and the eccentric tech mogul indirectly delivered on Monday when a new gold checkmark-toting Twitter account popped up with the username @XPayments. It was discovered shortly after Musk agai...

This Week on Crypto Twitter: Wall Street, Republican Candidates Embrace Crypto Ethos

Illustration by Mitchell Preffer for Decrypt After last week’s dramatic conclusion to the months-long Bitcoin ETF saga, this week saw mainstream finance and political forces attempt to embrace the crypto ethos, for better or worse.  On Wednesday, the digital assets team at Wall Street investment firm Franklin Templeton took over the company’s Twitter account, to attempt to inject some youthful energy into the legacy company after the buzzy debut of several spot Bitcoin ETFs.  You are unsure how...

This Week on Crypto Twitter: The ETF Circus Comes to Town

Illustration by Mitchell Preffer for Decrypt It was the craziest week crypto has had in a long time. And that’s saying quite a lot.  After months of escalating anticipation, the crypto community entered this week expecting it to finally—after years of waiting—deliver the first approved spot Bitcoin ETFs in Wall Street’s history.  Nerves were at an all time high, with potentially trillions of dollars worth of asset exposure to Bitcoin on the line. Then, a full day before analysts predicted the ve...

This Week on Crypto Twitter: ETF Fever Won’t Break

Illustration by Mitchell Preffer for Decrypt ETF fever has taken over the body of crypto—and now appears to have a grip on markets and discourse so all-consuming that it likely won’t let up until the verdict is in.  This week on Crypto Twitter, already heated speculation about the eagerly anticipated financial product reached new highs, as rumors and predictions rattled both spirits and crypto prices.  The big shock to the system came Wednesday, when an ominous report from digital asset manager...

This Week on Crypto Twitter: New Dog, Old Tricks

For weeks, a dog-themed Solana meme coin relentlessly dominated Crypto Twitter discourse, with no end in sight. But it would finally appear that BONK fever has broken—thanks to… another dog-themed Solana meme coin.  Dogwifhat (WIF), an upstart meme coin depicting exactly what you’d think it would, rocked Twitter this week after climbing a ludicrous 227,000% in less than a month. WIF holders and Solana ecosystem enthusiasts giddily basked in the absurdity of the coin’s success this week, attempti...

This Week On Crypto Twitter: Good for Meme Coins, Bad for (Alleged) Crypto Criminals

Bullish enthusiasm reigned over Crypto Twitter this week, as market-wide price pumps for Bitcoin, altcoins, and numerous meme coins spread smiles all around—unless, of course, you were a fallen crypto executive in the crosshairs of the U.S. government.  The Bitcoin ecosystem carried on its weeks-long upward climb unabated, with BTC, numerous Bitcoin Ordinals collections, and the protocol’s ORDI token all seeing substantial gains. On Twitter, enthusiasm for the sprint reached near-delirious level...

This Week on Crypto Twitter: Revenge of the Meme Coins

Illustration by Mitchell Preffer for Decrypt After a string of successive high octane weeks for the crypto industry, this week brought a much-needed dose of surreal absurdity and bullish optimism—namely, in the form of multiple high-flying memecoins.  First, in the immediate (we’re talking 15 minutes cold) wake of the death of famed Bitcoin hater and Berkshire Hathaway vice chairman Charlie Munger on Tuesday, a memecoin named after him spiked an astonishing 31,000%—before, of course, crashing to...

Many Twitter users quickly seized on the irony that Zhao had, prior to this week, routinely used the symbol “4” to dismiss rumors of Binance’s legal troubles as baseless mis...

Buzz about institutional interest in...

Several companies have filed recent applications with the SEC, and BlackRock is not necessarily winning the race. On Monday, The U.S. Court of Appeals issued its highly anticipated order for the SEC to review Grayscale’s a...

This Week on Crypto Twitter: Fake ETF News Pumps Bitcoin

Bitcoin holders profited this week amidst a flurry of industry announcements—both real and apocryphal—about the industry’s elusive hunt to get a spot Bitcoin ETF greenlit by the SEC.  Bitcoin’s price received an intraday boost of 10% on Monday, after crypto publication Cointelegraph falsely tweeted that TradFi asset management titan BlackRock had been approved to launch a U.S. Bitcoin spot ETF. Several journalists, including Fox’s Eleanor Terrett and Bloomberg’s James Seyffart dispelled the rumo...

Israel responded with heavy air strikes across Gaza—the locus of Hamas’s...

Illustration by Mitchell Preffer for Decrypt Once again, U.S. regulators offered very little to the international crypto community to chew on this week. VanEck’s SEC-approved Ethereum futures ETF was confirmed on Thursday, however, adding modest gains to the bags of Ethereum (ETH) holders. Beyond that, lawmakers in Washington still appear to be dragging their feet compared to their European counterparts—distracted as they were with a very close call with a government shutdown.

It was also a quiet week over on Crypto Twitter. It began with a huge apology from crypto-friendly game engine developer Unity after the company substantially revised its controversial Unity Runtime Fee last week, much to the anger of developers over on social media.  We have heard you.

Among the top thirty cryptocurrencies, Stellar’s XLM was the only one to post notable losses. Last week, XLM rallied 10% off the back of a tweet promising “something cool” in ten days. Lo and behold, ten rotations of the earth later, on Tuesday, and Stellar delivered a high-...
