Newsletter #392 - Bottom Calls & Quantum Threats

Hey Shitcoiners,

‍

Some renewed hopium is flooding the timeline as certain market commentators call for the bottom. Whether we have found it or not is yet to be seen but while you wait, let us humour you with some of the spiciest posts and stories of the last week.

Before we get to that, be sure to check out the latest episode of the Shitcoin.com Show! After a hiatus, we are so back.

‍

One topic touched on in the latest show (timestamp: ~14:50) was the contingency plan proposed by Jameson Lopp and Murch. We have had waves of “quantum threat” posts in recent weeks and BIP 361 looks to address that, freezing quantum-vulnerable wallets.

‍

Lopp shared his thoughts.

‍

The attacks on Lopp were inevitable. How dare he propose a change for Bitcoin?

‍

Is there a third way? Nic gave his 2 cents. The US would need to firmly win the quantum race and then salvage the coins and secure them for potential claims or eventual treasury placement.

‍

Anyway, enough quantum talk. We have finally seen some real signs that the bottom is in.

‍

And the bull posting is back! Draper has boldly claimed that we’re on our way to $250K within 18 months. Bullish.

‍

Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of the Ethereum holders out there.

‍

It’s been a rough year so far, but X is doing its bit. They launched cashtags. Nikita dropped an elite meme to celebrate.

‍

While it’s been a rough year for many, Hyperliquid has been going from strength to strength with a team of 11. Colossus launched a puff piece.

‍

No monitor. Uses TV instead. Do you believe the humblemaxxing?

‍

Drift’s attempt to claim market share from Hyperliquid was thwarted due to their recent hack. A bailout is on its way though as Tether has decided to step in.

‍

Speaking of hacks, be careful when sourcing your next hardware wallet. Yikes!

‍

Ledger has become the target of many schemes. Another expose by ZachXBT saw KuCoin were called out for allowing the laundering of $9.5M+ sourced from a fake Ledger app. Be sure to only buy from Ledger directly.

‍

Tay also threw some shade on KuCoin of her own.

‍

To US shenanigans next! The next Fed Chair has some very heavy bags.

‍

And the Trump family’s WLFI is coming under scrutiny as His Excellency called them out. His WLFI remains frozen, and have done since September 2025. RIP.

‍

Ooft.

‍

The latest trend we’re seeing in onchain shenanigans is very apparent in this next post. Hold a sizeable amount of the supply, get perp listings, liquidate the shorts, profit.

‍

We haven’t had a crypto-adjacent controversial death in quite some time but reports surfaced this week that Joe McCann’s fiancée was found unconscious on safari and later died.

‍

He is now being held in Tanzania.

‍

To round this one off, we have music from Nic Carter.

‍

That’s all for this week! Stay bullish.
