🔥 Nuclear Level Crisis

1️⃣ Federal Reserve Raid: New rules require stablecoins to have 100% cash reserves, forcing Circle to liquidate $24 billion in U.S. Treasuries

2️⃣ Ripple Acquisition Falls Through: $5 billion merger talks collapse, Circle's IPO urgently halted

3️⃣ Great Asian Exodus: Hong Kong brokers see a net outflow of $1.8 billion in USDC in a single day, suspected to be related to the Sino-U.S. digital cold war

⚠️ Life and Death Line Tonight
