I've been trying out @virtuals_io for the last month for the Virgens points system. Here are my honest takes:
General thoughts
- You need a decent chunk of capital to get started and for it to be worthwhile.
- I played around with a few different account sizes and taking bigger swings is more worth it.
Good
- The seller jail is actually really good for the projects. Even after unstaking, you need 14 days to get the tokens. Lots of "rails" to maintain loyalty.
- The virtuals team keeps bringing twists on existing meta's and +1s it while shipping fast.
Bad
- Website performance is terrible. Things are slow, transactions keep failing, things are not displaying properly. Had similar issues before and it's still a struggle.
- The allocations for low points is not super useful, why would anyone want to invest 4 cents to make $1 and then go to jail for selling $1 lol
- Holding seems like it's not really worthwhile vs just trading for points, yapping, and holding everything to jeet once you get ROI.
Is it good for making money?
- You're probably too late now..? Feels like a house of cards atm.
- I'd recommend at least 5k-10k if you want to take it seriously.
What I'd recommend
- It's going to be about content acquisition and why someone should launch on virtuals vs somewhere else. I actually think Virtuals is better than believe.
- I think them getting out of the AI agent vapourware wave will be useful. It's actually a pretty fun gamification on presales in general.
- Get web2 talent to come build using the attention + capital that the platform can generate.
Robinhood has completed a $200 million all-cash acquisition of Luxembourg-based crypto exchange Bitstamp, expanding its institutional crypto services across Europe, the UK, and Asia. Bitstamp serves over 5,000 institutional and 50,000 retail clients, with most volume driven by institutions. The deal matches the original June 2024 agreement. On May 13, Robinhood also announced a $179 million acquisition of Canadian crypto platform WonderFi.
ETH Surges 2.96% as Exchange Reserves Hit 9-Year Low and Trading Volume Soars
Ethereum is currently trading at $2,612.05 with a 24-hour price increase of 2.96% and strong trading volume, reflecting active market participation and a rebound from the previous session’s lows. The recent price movement is attributed to a combination of factors, including significant liquidations of long positions totaling $19.45 million, a notable drop in exchange reserves to the lowest level since 2015, and increased trading activity, particularly on Binance. Additional support for the price comes from positive sentiment following development news, such as Vitalik Buterin’s announcement on scaling Ethereum’s Layer 1 and ongoing institutional interest, despite broader market volatility and recent declines in global equity indices.
🚨 James Wynn is Back With Another Wild #bitcoin Bet!
This time, he’s LONG on $BTC with 40x leverage — worth a MASSIVE $100 Million!
He opened a position of 945 BTC and his original liquidation price was $103,640 and Current Unrealized loss is -$1.5M
But here’s the kicker...
▶️ To avoid getting liquidated, he just deposited $400,000 $USDC more as margin!
🔻 His new liquidation price? Just $103640 — that’s 0.68% away from current price!
{spot}(USDCUSDT)
😨 One small dip... and it could all vanish $2.5M!
Will #JamesWynn survive this one or get REKT again?
Stay tuned, fam — this is about to get spicy!

#SaylorBTCPurchase @wisegbevecryptonews9
I asked Grok to come up with some new Bitcoin instruments for Strategy, and I really liked some of these bold ideas:
SKNK - Saylor’s Kinky Bitcoin Kicker Bond
A bold bond with a kinky twist, offering base returns plus a Bitcoin “kicker” payout, pitched to 2026 conference risk-takers with a naughty, Strip-inspired edge.
SSIN - Saylor’s Sinful Strip Note
A structured note embracing the “Sin City” vibe, with returns tied to BTC and Las Vegas nightlife revenue, seducing 2026 Bitcoin conference investors with risky, sinful rewards.

$BNKR just clocked 48h of ping-pong: buyers keep scooping 0.00024-0.00025, bears fade 0.00028-0.00029; a flush to 0.000226 drew big volume + instant rebound—dip hunters alive. Social chatter stays 🔥 (airdrops, rewards >90% positive), propping sentiment and liquidity. Eyes on 0.000245 as comfy reload zone, 0.000225 as deep value, and 0.000285+ for breakout bids; until then expect range-bound grind powered by a loud, committed crew.
$BTC / USDT – TRIPLE TOP TROUBLE? ⚠️🧱
{spot}(BTCUSDT)
Bitcoin is testing the $106K resistance for the third time — a classic triple top formation might be unfolding. Despite a +0.26% bounce, the price is struggling to break above this key ceiling.
Failure to break through could trigger a sharp rejection toward the $104,800 and $103,600 demand zones. Momentum is fading — bulls must act now or risk a retrace.
📉 Trade Setup (Bearish Reversal):
• Entry: $105,800 – $106,000
• TP1: $104,800
• TP2: $103,600
• SL: $106,500
Breakout or fakeout? All eyes on this zone. ⚔️
