In spite of Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) surrendering $44.8 billion and $8.9 billion of their market capitalization over the past 24 hours, through September 28, Aksel Kibar, a former fund manager, has cautioned against these cryptocurrencies falling below and hovering near their May 2026 peak. Kibar affirmed that Bitcoin and Ethereum need to move quickly away from current levels to continue their recent bull market.  “If these are short pullbacks to broken resistance levels, price needs to quickly move away from current levels, resulting in strong weekly closes,” Kibar documented on September 27.

Justin Sun announces math prize but has no proof of funds

Justin Sun recently announced that his new “Justin Sun Prize” would begin in earnest, with $1 million being offered for those who can solve 66 mathematical problems and verify their proof. The only problem? Sun hasn’t shown any evidence that there’s $66 million in funding for those who are able to solve the problems. Comparisons to Nobel ring true Sun took to X to announce the competition and immediately compared it to the Nobel Prize, acknowledging that Nobel created the prize after he was labeled “The Merchant of Death” and he became terrified for his legacy.

XRP Ledger sets record of transactions in a single block; Here’s what it means

The XRP Ledger (XRPL) has processed a record 3,254 transactions in a single block, setting a new record as XRP price climbed almost 4% amid developments surrounding the network. Most transactions consisted of tiny XRP payments, which do not constitute a heavy load on the network, according to a report posted on X by XRPL validator Vet on September 14. Although the sender’s identity and purpose remain unconfirmed, Vet suggested that the activity may have served as a throughput test. “3254 transactions in a single block a few hours ago on the XRP Ledger.

McDonald's India 'intern' says memecoins left them starving

Image
McDonald’s India’s X account has deleted posts from an alleged intern who claims they weren’t paid for months, and that memecoin trading left them starving. The first post, uploaded on Sunday, claimed that the writer, an intern, manages several Asian McDonald’s accounts. They claimed that their boss, “Amit Joshi,” hasn’t paid them since December 2025, leaving them no choice but to take on two extra jobs in customer support and delivery. On top of this, the “intern” described themselves as an unsuccessful memecoin trader. They claimed, “I literally starve every day because I lose all my money on them.” Screenshots of the now-deleted McDonald’s India posts.
