Uniswap Foundation and Uniswap Labs have unveiled a new governance proposal called “UNIfication”, marking a major shift in the protocol’s economic design.

BitMine just added 110,301 ETH (~$380M) last week, pushing its total holdings past 3.5M ETH about 2.9% of Ethereum’s total supply.

🚨 CRYPTO MILLIONAIRE COUPLE KIDNAPPED AND BURIED IN THE DESERT.

A shocking case has been confirmed in the UAE: Russian crypto millionaires Roman and Anna Novak have been found deceased and buried in the desert, one month after going missing.

What the Initial Investigation Revealed:

🔻 Roman and Anna vanished after driving to meet an alleged "investor" near the Hatta mountain resort area of Dubai.

🔻 Before their disappearance, the couple often flaunted a lavish lifestyle online—supercars, private jets, and connections with billionaires like Pavel Durov (Telegram).

🔻 After initial contact was lost, Roman allegedly sent a message to friends claiming he was "stuck at the Oman border" and urgently needed $200,000.

🔻 A month later, police discovered their dismembered remains buried in a remote desert location.

Key Developments:

Russian investigative agencies have confirmed the arrest of three Russian suspects, including a former police officer, in connection with the kidnapping and murder.

Crucially, at the time of his disappearance, Roman was reportedly under investigation for defrauding crypto investors in the Middle East and China out of $500 million.

This massive fraud case has led many to speculate that the murder could be a "settlement" or "payback" tied to the dark side of the cryptocurrency underworld.

US Government Shutdown Nears an End After 40 Days

After a record 40 day government shutdown, the U.S. Senate has taken a major step toward reopening the government.

On Sunday evening, senators voted 60-40 to advance a bipartisan deal after several moderate Democrats broke with party leadership to support the measure. The bill will now move to the House before heading to President Trump’s desk for signature.

Under the agreement, Congress will provide full-year funding for the Departments of Agriculture, Veterans Affairs, and Congress itself, while temporarily funding other agencies through January 30. The plan also restores pay for furloughed workers and resumes frozen federal payments.

Markets reacted positively S&P 500 futures rose 0.7%, and Nasdaq 100 gained 1.1%, as optimism grew over the deal. The U.S. 10 year Treasury yield also ticked higher to 4.13%, reflecting improved risk sentiment.

However, the deal still faces resistance. Some Democrats oppose it for excluding Obamacare subsidy extensions, while conservative Republicans argue it doesn’t cut spending enough.

If passed, this resolution could end the longest shutdown in U.S. history, which has already cost the economy an estimated $15 billion per week and weighed heavily on public confidence.

After a 15% weekly correction, the crypto market is bouncing back:

Total market cap: $3.4T (+2.45%)
$BTC : +4.19% -> $105,833 (recovered from $99,780)
$ETH : +7.82% -> $3,633 (leading the rebound)
Altcoins: $SOL , $XRP , $DOGE up 5-8%

The rally follows Trump’s announcement of a $2,000 “tariff dividend” for Americans echoing the 2020 stimulus optimism that once sent BTC x17.

Market sentiment also improved as the U.S. government shutdown ended after 40 days.

🔥$500B in Dormant Bitcoin “Wakes Up” After Years of Inactivity

Roughly 4.6M $BTC worth over $500 billion has moved from long dormant wallets in 2025, marking the highest activity since 2017.

Analysts say this could significantly affect market sentiment and liquidity. Some warn that if a portion of these coins are sold, selling pressure could intensify.

The big question: are these whales preparing to sell or just moving to safer storage?

November 9th that Michael Saylor posted Tracker information again.

This suggests that Strategy may disclose $BTC accumulation data next week.
