First up, Coinbase is making waves in the crypto space with a whopping $25 million move to revive the legendary UpOnly podcast.

Ripple Labs maybe turning heads in the cryptocurrency arena
Meanwhile, Evernorth Holdings, a digital asset powerhouse tied to Ripple Labs, is at the edge of a $1 billion public listing that’s turning heads in the cryptocurrency arena.
With a $200 million boost from Japan’s SBI Holdings, plus support from big names like Ripple, Pantera Capital, Kraken, and GSR, Evernorth Holdings is gearing up to build one of the largest XRP treasuries in the world. It will trade under the ticker XRPN.
Evernorth’s CEO, Asheesh Birla says this is a game-changer for cryptocurrency fans looking to ride the XRP wave.

Is Bitcoin not cryptocurrency? – So many opinions!!!!
Jack Dorsey, the Twitter founder and Bitcoin cheerleader, stirred the pot when he said, “Bitcoin is not crypto.” His statement on X sparked over 4,000 comments, igniting a massive debate in the cryptocurrency community.
Dorsey argues Bitcoin’s roots as a “peer-to-peer electronic cash” system, as outlined in the 2008 Bitcoin white paper, set it apart from the broader crypto world. He points out that the white paper never mentions “crypto”.
Now, while some fans cite Satoshi Nakamoto’s 2010 Bitcointalk post calling Bitcoin a “peer-to-peer cryptocurrency,” Dorsey doubles down on the “currency” part.
Rumors still swirl about his ties to Nakamoto, and Dorsey’s “No, and if I were, would I tell you?” keeps the mystery alive.
These stories highlight the unstoppable energy in the cryptocurrency market. Whether you’re a Bitcoin maximalist, an XRP fan, or just crypto-curious, today’s news proves one thing: the cryptocurrency revolution is moving faster than ever.
