Trad Daddies. Will Vanguard be crypto-pilled under new leadership? The TradFi investment group with $7.7 trillion in assets under management has historically been a hard no on BTC. However, there’s a new daddy in town a new CEO, who previously oversaw the BTC ETF work at BlackRock. No worries if not tho, ofc. Speaking of, who crypto-pilled the state of Wisconsin? They’ve stacked $161 Million in BTC ETF shares.

GameStopped. The Roaring Kitty X account has been insufferable since rousing back to life earlier this week, posting incessantly and attracting the most annoying kind of reply guy. If you need a primer on what’s happening with the GameStop and Roaring Kitty of it all, listen here.

lol wtf

I couldn’t help but wonder, what does this hedge fund know about GameStop that caused them to buy 1 million shares before the stock popped?

And They Were Roommates. A pair of MIT-educated brothers were charged by the Southern District of New York for stealing $25M in crypto. Crypto Twitter is debating whether or not their actions were truly illegal. Were they “playing outside the garden of gentlemanly conduct” or did they just massage the code in their favor? In other exploit news, someone stole $80M from pump.fun and is redistributing it across the crypto community “in the name of decentralization.” Or maybe love. Reader, this is what it’s like to live in unprecedented times.
