High-Flying Memecoins Take Center Stage in Crypto
This week, the crypto industry experienced a shift from the usual high-octane action to a dose of surreal absurdity and bullish optimism, thanks to the emergence of several high-flying memecoins. One notable incident occurred when a memecoin named after Charlie Munger, the renowned Bitcoin critic and Berkshire Hathaway vice chairman who passed away recently, skyrocketed by an astonishing 31,000% before crashing to zero. Another instance involved the death of controversial American diplomat Henry Kissinger, which led to the creation of eight Kissinger-themed coins across three blockchains. These coins generated over $250,000 worth of trading volume.
I just found out Henry Kissinger died, through the fact an alt coin appeared on my feed called “KISSINGER”.

Meanwhile, Elon Musk made a bizarre public appearance at a New York Times event where he repeatedly told Twitter advertisers who had abandoned the platform to “go fuck yourself.” This outburst led to the creation of “Go Fuck Yourself” memecoins, including one with a market capitalization of $7.28 million. The influx of such highly capitalized ridiculousness raises hopes for an imminent crypto bull market.
SEC Decision on Bitcoin ETF Draws Attention
In other news, there are increasing signs that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) may finally reach a decision on a spot Bitcoin ETF in early January. This highly anticipated financial product has the potential to inject over $1 trillion from traditional financial institutions and investors into the crypto market. Analysts are optimistic about its approval, and Crypto Twitter is buzzing with excitement.
Window is officially Jan 5th to Jan 10th. Really this means that any potential approval orders are going to come on either Monday Jan 8, Tuesday Jan 9, or Wednesday Jan 10. Mark your calendars people.
