TL;DR — Or as we call it, “Too Lazy? Here’s Drama”
- Bitcoin hit $105K, slipped to $102K. Retail: Kya kar diya bhaiya?
- ETH up 13%, Solana’s back from ICU, DOGE is barking again
- SEC might finally do its homework
- Trump Jr. backed miner going public. Yes, it’s 2025, not 2017.
- Argentina rug-pulled its own people with $LIBRA — national-level scam 😭

📈 Bitcoin: From HODL to WTH
Bitcoin crossed $105K on May 12.
Cut to 12 hours later: It’s doing a U-turn like an Ola driver who spotted a toll booth.
Why the spike?
- Trade talks between US & China = Hopium
- Meme lords said “next stop $200K”
- Plus, retail saw Operation Sindoor and thought war’s good for everything — even crypto
