This is a valid play. Stocks are fair game these days. That’s why we’re seeing this mad dash into RWA’s by various crypto companies.

Warning about Scanning QR Codes for Trading Bots

Just a friendly notice after seeing a post on Reddit about a user claiming their account was compromised after trying to log into the 'Trojan' trading bot tool here. I can't confirm that this tool was the source of the compromise, so don't take this advisory to be me saying that. Nonetheless, this post underscores the danger of logging in

Let's say you have Telegram for Desktop (the app) and you're logged in, but you decide to use the browser-based Telegram messenger. That will require you to once again log into Telegram. Now the browser you're logging into is obviously trustworthy (since its an official TG source), but let's say it wasn't...your account would be de facto compromised.

Telegram SSO is not like Google/Twitter/Facebook/GitHub single sign-on where the permissions are scoped so that the app can maybe only see your e-mail address or some other basic account info attached to you. When you log into Telegram elsewhere, you're granting that client / site / etc. full unfettered access to your account.

Also, as it pertains to QR codes - you do not need to be logged in to generate one. The QR codes are what you're supposed to scan from already logged in device. So anybody can generate a QR code. Let's say I install a TG client on my computer (nobody logged in) and I launch the application. First thing it will do is show me the screen asking me to sign in (via phone # or QR code with the QR code displayed already).

All I have to do is rip that QR code and then send it to a user for sign-in and then upon scanning it, their client will have authorized the client that produced the QR code to have access to their Telegram. If that user doesn't have 2FA enabled, then that's all that's needed. They don't even have to present the authorization code that Telegram sends to your phone or (already) authorized TG client.

Thus, it would actually be trivially easy for someone to compromise someone's Telegram account with just a QR code. So be careful.

Here's an article from Kaspersky on it: usa.kaspersky.com/blog/telegram-takeover-contest/27866/

Broke down the game on Ethereum a few weeks ago. Now it’s up 30%+. Did the same w XRP and that’s up 100%+.

Take your time in these markets, do your homework and wait. Don’t gamble on dumb shit (primarily memecoins).

$XRP is going absolutely nuts too

That seems to be another shoe-in for an ETF as well. ETFs are good for price action and I think an asset like XRP is far from fully discovering what its actual price truly is because its creators spent so much time dumping on top of their investors for so long.

Additional Points

1. There’s no effective ETF for XRP yet or an options market for said ETF, so shorting it is difficult for institutional investors.

2. NO REDEMPTIONS on the Grayscale XRP basket and its trading at a DISCOUNT to the NAV. That’s honey to a bee hive for investors. Why? If you’re anticipating the ETF to be passed (which it probably will), then that creates a vehicle to convert the shares into tokens or their equivalent in an ETF so they can be cashed out for equivalent share value (we’ll get more into this in a second).

All of this = feedback loop on $XRP

President Trump States that Iran and Israel Have Agreed to Ceasefire

He stated that the two countries have agreed to a complete and total ceasefire that will be "phased" out over the next 24 hours.

News like that is usually a boost to the whole “memecoin” market because it makes traders start gambling on which token will be listed next.

Ethereum‑linked ETFs have posted seven straight weeks of net inflows, totaling over $1.7 billion, and futures open interest is at record highs—fueling forecasts that ETH could surge to $3,100–$3,600 in the near term.

Ethereum Improvements

Tim Beiko and Ansgar Dietrich’s are set to lead L1 scaling, Alex Stokes and Francesco D’Amato will handle L2 and blobs, and Barnabé Monnot alongside Josh Rudolf will drive UX improvements under the new “Protocol” structure. Vitalik himself outlined a multi‑pronged scaling strategy—including accelerated Layer‑2 growth, increased blob capacity, stateless nodes (EIP‑4444), and bolstered L1 functionality—that reinforces ETH’s role as a core ecosystem driver.

Ethereum Breaking $3k Seems Inevitable at This Point

It seems inevitable that Ethereum will be reaching the price of $3,000 or greater. This was pretty much inevitable, especially when looking at the inflow into their ETFs recently, as well as the general bullishness surrounding Ethereum.

And then when you consider the fact that it hasn't really benefited from this bull run in the same way that other projects have in the space, it's an easy bet to go with. And then the recent news by Vitalik Buterin and the rest of the Ethereum Foundation that they would essentially be restructuring the Ethereum Foundation and also moving forward with a roadmap that will allow them to scale considerably.

So as long as the entire market remains bullish, there's no real reason to forecast that Ethereum wouldn't follow suit or even be a leader amongst all other cryptos in terms of its bullish market activity.
