🎖️ Justin Sun is elected Prime Minister of the unrecognized micronation of Liberland.
Liberland is a micronation located between Croatia and Serbia, and holds 99% of its reserves in Bitcoin.
The Tron founder said he would promote the idea of small government as a model for the world.
Liberland, a micronation that holds 99% of its reserves in Bitcoin, has elected Tron founder Justin Sun as its new prime minister.
"Just as Vatican City represents a central spiritual authority for Catholics, Liberland will be the heart of the libertarian movement."

🥷 According to Coinbase, unmasking Satoshi represents a real risk for investors and knowing the name of the creator of Bitcoin would no longer be important.
“Now that the [Bitcoin] network is global and robust, discovering Satoshi’s identity is only relevant for history books or entertainment.”
says Samir Kerbage, Chief Investment Officer at Hashdex.
Analysts are particularly concerned that if Satoshi were identified and alive, he might sell his BTC and drive down the price.
As a reminder, Nakamoto owns at least 1.1 million Bitcoins worth nearly $68 billion.

🔮 Standard Chartered predicts a $SOL that could be multiplied by 5, a $ETH by 4 and a $BTC multiplied by 3 by the end of 2025 if Donald Trump wins the American presidential election.
Standard Chartered's Geoff Kendrick believes that if Kamala Harris becomes president, "Ethereum will hit the $7 ,000 level by the end of 2025."
Kendrick sees bitcoin reaching $200 ,000 by the end of 2025, regardless of the election outcome.
"The introduction of a Solana exchange-traded fund (ETF) would be more likely under a Trump presidency."

How to build confidence to hold
We've all seen $1 ,000,000+ PNL screenshots
The truth is most traders would never hold long enough to reach that level
The secret isn't just about getting in early, it's about the ability to separate conviction from gamble
Ask yourself:
- Is volume excessively high?
- Is there consistent buy pressure on dips?
- Is the community forming a cult?
- Does it have a strong narrative?
- Are you seeing wallets constantly ape $10k +?
- Are you seeing it being pushed in multiple different groups?
- Is it all over your twitter feed?
If the answer is yes to all these questions, then treat this play with conviction. Hold your position until you see a major break of structure on the 1-4h timeframes
Conviction comes from recognizing momentum

📅 We are entering the "Uptober".
Historically, October has been a bullish month, with BTC seeing an average gain of 22.9% in 8 of the last 9 Octobers.
A similar increase would take us above $78 ,000, pushing the #Bitcoin above its ATH.
Although ETH tends to perform well in October, its average returns over the last 8 months of October have been around 5%.

🚨 BEWARE OF FALSE INFORMATION: FTX fund distribution will not start this week!
👉 The next hearing on the FTX restructuring is set for October 7. If approved, claimants with less than $50 ,000 could receive payments by the end of 2024, while larger amounts would be processed in 2025.
In total, $16 billion will be redistributed, and a large portion of these funds will be reinjected into the market.

At Solana Breakpoint 2024, Charles d’Haussy, CEO of the dYdX Foundation, discussed the protocols’s upcoming enhancements and muse on Solana’s growth.
While dYdX, one of the crypto industry’s oldest decentralized perpetual exchanges, runs its own sovereign appchain, the platform recently integrated Solana-based assets into its platform.
The move brought greater exposure to a wealth of Solana ecosystem tokens, allowing dYdX traders to express their opinion on assets like $SOL , $JUP , and $WIF .
Drawing on his rich experience in the industry, d’Haussy made fascinating remarks about Solana culture.
Solana Builder Energy
When dYdX governance moved to include more Solana-based assets via a Raydium integration in June, d’Haussy and the dYdX were hesitant to approach the Solana community.
“When we started to reach out to the Solana ecosystem, I was kind of cautious and trying to be gentle, not knowing exactly how we would be welcome for conversations about possible integration”
From an outside perspective, blockchain tribalism formed a perceived barrier to entry. Chain maximalism is a serious obstacle within the industry, which is further exacerbated by obstinate and outspoken communities on social media.
Fortunately, away from the noise and distractions of social media, the teams actually building these ecosystems are eager to collaborate and push the collectively push the industry forward. d’Haussy remarked that the Solana Foundation was welcoming and receptive to working alongside teams from alternative ecosystems in the pursuit of progress.
“We were really warmly welcomed. I think the Solana ecosystem has showed us, you want to connect to the Solana ecosystem and bring more mindshare to the Solana ecosystem via your own chain? How can we help you?… The Solana Foundation has been extremely welcoming, connecting us to plenty of people. And the builders were also very welcoming.”
“Sometimes Twitter makes you think that this is all tribes and they look at each other from afar. But the reality is the real builders and the people which are in the industry long enough and for the long term, they are very friendly and they want to grow the cake for everyone.”
Additionally, d’Haussy asserted that “Solana is like Ethereum five years ago”, highlighting the energy and hunger shown by developers building innovative products. The CEO drew comparisons between the atmosphere of week’s earlier Token 2049 conference and Solana Breakpoint.
“We are just out of three days of Token 2049, which is much more salesy and marketing and towards trading activities, which is really the audience of DYDX. So, that was perfect, we had a blast over there. Suddenly, you wake up the next morning and you're going to Solana Breakpoint.”
“It's a bit of a shock for me because suddenly we are surrounded by devs. So, there is this kind of change of seasons overnight between the projects and the business development atmosphere of Token 2049 and here the business, the atmosphere of building here at Solana.”
Blockchain tribalism is a regrettable obstacle, but easily overcome. As evidenced by dYdX and the Solana, teams from different chains can always find ways to work together in a way that benefits both parties and further advances the space.

PayPal, one of the world’s largest financial platforms, continues its mission to deliver blockchain-based services to users and businesses alike.
On September 25, 2024, PayPal announced it would be enabling U.S. merchants to buy, hold, and sell cryptocurrency assets within their business accounts. The move is the latest in a slew of updates made by PayPal as the TradFi giant continues to embrace the cryptocurrency industry.
U.S. Businesses Can Now Store Funds Onchain
Following the successful launch of crypto services for individual users, PayPal remarked that businesses were eager to meet user’s growing demand for more comprehensive crypto services.
"Since we launched the ability for PayPal and Venmo consumers to buy, sell, and hold cryptocurrency in their wallets, we have learned a lot about how they want to use their cryptocurrency… Business owners have increasingly expressed a desire for the same cryptocurrency capabilities available to consumers. We're excited to meet that demand by delivering this new offering, empowering them to engage with digital currencies effortlessly." - Jose Fernandez da Ponte, Senior Vice President of Blockchain, Cryptocurrency, and Digital Currencies, PayPal.
PayPal’s commitment to providing merchants with expanded crypto services and flexibility goes beyond buying and selling digital assets. Merchants can now withdraw cryptocurrencies to external onchain wallets.
While PayPal has stipulated that this feature will be limited to “eligible” wallets, the move also opens the door to more businesses becoming involved in DeFi. For example, businesses holding capital might be able to lend out assets in various onchain lending protocols, earning additional yield on a merchant’s treasury.
$PYUSD Solana Supply Down 40% Since ATH
Since launching on Solana on May 29, 2024, $PYUSD enjoyed meteoric growth. Spurred on by generous liquidity provision incentives, $PYUSD’s Solana-based supply surged to over 663.4M tokens based on Step Finance data. This eclipsed Ethereum’s $PYUSD supply, making Solana the unofficial home of PayPal’s crypto services.
However, as $PYUSD reward campaigns have slowed and market conditions improved, the supply of PayPal USD on Solana has declined. At its highest point on August 28, 2024, Solana hosted $PYUSD 65.79% supply dominance.
Based on DeFiLlama data, that figure has since fallen to just 50.4%, with PayPal USD’s Solana-based supply currently sitting at 354M.
It's unlikely that PayPal merchants based in the U.S. will rush to bring their stablecoin holdings onchain and deploy them in Solana DeFi protocols. However, the move highlights PayPal’s willingness to respond positively to customer feedback and integrate blockchain technology into its expansive product suite.

It works with any #altcoin when they announced direction 40k.
👉 The majority reacts like this: "I'll wait until it goes up to 50k to buy."
👉 At 50,000: "Finally, I'll wait for 40k."
And even if the price had gone down to 40k, they still wouldn't have bought.
Now that the market is showing some signs of recovery, they are becoming euphoric and are buying at levels 2-3 times higher than a few weeks ago.
And when we talk about taking advantage of the corrections to reload, these same people insult us in the comments.
They will end up being our "exit liquidity", we will sell them our tokens in a few months. 😈
Congratulations to those who kept a cool head and recharged.
Patients will be rewarded with the liquidity of the impatient.

👉 The majority reacts like this: "I'll wait until it goes up to 50k to buy."
👉 At 50,000: "Finally, I'll wait for 40k."
And even if the price had gone down to 40k, they still wouldn't have bought.
Now that the market is showing some signs of recovery, they are becoming euphoric and are buying at levels 2-3 times higher than a few weeks ago.
And when we talk about taking advantage of the corrections to reload, these same people insult us in the comments.
They will end up being our "exit liquidity", we will sell them our tokens in a few months. 😈
Congratulations to those who kept a cool head and recharged.
Patients will be rewarded with the liquidity of the impatient.

HIGHLIGHTS FROM SOLANA BREAKPOINT DAY TWO
Solana Breakpoint Day One set a rapid pace, with milestone announcements about Firedancer, key product updates from Jupiter, and trillion-dollar asset manager Franklin Templeton disclosing its intention to build a mutual fund on Solana.
Despite the high expectations following a blistering Day One, Day Two kept the momentum alive and delivered plenty of showstopping announcements.
COINBASE TO LAUNCH cbBTC ON SOLANA
Coinbase, one of the industry’s most popular centralized exchanges, announced its intention to deploy its wrapped version of Bitcoin on the Solana network. Since launching on Ethereum and Base just a few weeks earlier, cbBTC has quickly climbed the ranks to become the third-largest wrapped Bitcoin token in the market.
The move is expected to bring more of Bitcoin’s deep liquidity to Solana, where cbBTC can be integrated into various DeFi applications and increase capital efficiency on the network.
FIREDANCER LIVE ON MAINNET FOR NON-VOTE TRANSACTIONS
FireDancer may have stolen the show on Day One, but the Jump Crypto developers weren’t content to stop there. Firedancer’s Research and Development Architect, Phillip Taffet, and Production Engineer Anway De announced that the full Firedancer validator client was now live on the Solana mainnet for non-vote transactions.
But that wasn’t all that the Firedancer team had in store. A live demo also demonstrated the Frankendancer client executing 1.04M transactions per second.

BONK ETP
