Here’s a fact‑checked summary of the story so far: In 2013, James Howells—an early Bitcoin miner—accidentally disposed of a hard drive containing 8,000 BTC, which ended up in the Docksway landfill near Newport, Wales WikipediaThe Guardian.Fast‑forward to early 2025 and those coins are worth roughly $115,000 each — totaling around $920 million, which aligns closely with the user‑quoted figure of $950 million Wikipedia.In January 2025, a judge ruled that Howells’ legal action to excavate the site (or receive £495 million in compensation) “had no realistic prospect of succeeding” and affirmed that the drive is now owned by the local council, effectively ending his decade‑long quest
Here’s everything you need to know: The latest US jobs report came in, and it was rough. Only 73,000 jobs were added (expectation was over 100,000). May and June numbers were revised down by 258,000. Unemployment rose to 4.2%, the highest in more than two years. That’s a clear sign the economy is slowing down. Markets reacted fast: – Stocks fell – The dollar dropped more than 1% – Odds of a Fed rate cut in September jumped from 40% to over 80% This should’ve been a win for Trump. He’s been calling for rate cuts for months. Now he had the perfect data to pressure Powell. But instead? He called the report fake. Then fired BLS Commissioner William Beach, the guy who released it. And took another shot at Powell, saying he should be “put out to pasture.” So let’s get this straight: Trump wants rate cuts. He gets the exact numbers that support rate cuts. He calls them fake, fires the messenger, and attacks the Fed Chair. Markets are confused. Is this bullish? Bearish? Just chaos? And here’s the real concern: If official economic data starts getting politicized, how do markets trust anything moving forward? This isn’t just about jobs or inflation anymore. It’s about trust, credibility, and who controls the narrative. Wild times ahead. What’s your take? #ProjectCrypto
Leading AI Claude Predicts the Price of XRP, Dogecoin and Solana
$XRP : Claude AI suggests that XRP (XRP) could see its price climb to $7 by the end of the year—a 121.5% gain from its present value of approximately $3.16. Over the past year, XRP has surged 387%, far outperforming Bitcoin’s 79% gain across the same time frame.
$SOL : Claude AI projects Solana could reach $1,000 by year-end, substantially outpacing its previous all-time high of $293.31 set earlier this year by more than 3X and giving it 6X potential by the New Year. If current bullish patterns continue through the summer, SOL could test the $320 mark by fall. In stronger-than-expected market conditions, the price could surge well past the $400–$600 range forecasted by some advanced models.
$DOGE : Claude AI estimates DOGE could rise to $0.1 by the end of 2025, marking a nearly 5x return from its current price level. Real-world adoption is increasing: Tesla continues to accept DOGE for select merchandise, and both PayPal and Revolut support DOGE transactions—underscoring its role as a functional digital currency. #ClaudeAI

In 2025, don't sleep on _______? Experts pls give your opinions... #FutureCrypto
Ethereum Foundation is no longer of the top ETH holders
They now hold only 234,000 ETH. Meanwhile, companies like Bitmine, SharpLink, and Ether Machine bought 416,000 ETH just last week. FG Nexus might be next.
Every time $ETH ETH price goes up, the Foundation sells "to pay salaries"...
But smart companies are buying and holding for the long term. #EthereumTurns10
