For months, Elon Musk publicly attacked Anthropic. Today, however, the billionaire opens the doors of one of the most powerful supercomputers on the market to them.

The prop trading sector has just endured one of the most brutal consolidations in its recent history. Between 2023 and 2024, more than 70 platforms shut down or were forced to cease operations under regulatory pressure, among them My Forex Funds, shut down by the CFTC in 2023, and The Funded Trader, liquidated the following year.

While the crypto market focuses its attention on bitcoin and ETFs, XRP quietly begins to attract technical analysts again. For several months, Ripple's token has been evolving in a historical support zone already observed before its previous rallies. This setup now fuels a bold scenario: a potential surge towards 12 dollars. In a climate dominated by doubt and skepticism, some traders believe the market might be underestimating XRP.
While some crypto market undertakers were already preparing the blockchain coffin, Polygon unleashes the "turbo low-latency" mode. Visa now watches the engine heat behind the glass, even though the POL token still limps like an old worn-out cyberpunk taxi after a night under neon lights.
