CoreWeave Renews Bid to Acquire Core Scientific Amid AI Boom

CoreWeave is once again pursuing an acquisition of Bitcoin mining firm Core Scientific, nearly a year after its initial $1 billion bid was rejected. According to a June 26 report from The Wall Street Journal, the Nvidia-backed AI cloud provider has reopened discussions to buy Core Scientific, reflecting shifting market dynamics and rising demand for AI infrastructure.

Last year, Core Scientific’s board dismissed CoreWeave’s $5.75-per-share offer as significantly undervaluing the company. While details of the renewed offer remain confidential, the market responded swiftly—Core Scientific’s shares jumped 28%, bringing its valuation to nearly $4 billion.

Insiders say the revived talks come on the heels of several long-term infrastructure agreements between the two companies, including a major deal to provide 200 megawatts of power for CoreWeave’s high-performance computing operations. With AI workloads expanding and Bitcoin mining profitability under pressure, CoreWeave appears to see strategic value in closer integration with Core Scientific.

Bought SOL at $148 Before It Crashed Below $127: How Smart Strategy Led to Breakeven

What seemed like a poor entry at $148 turned into a hard-earned breakeven — not by chance, but through strategy and resilience.

In the world of crypto, the line between conviction and delusion is razor-thin. Buying Solana at $148 could easily be seen as a confident move — until it dropped to $126. At that point, it felt more like a costly reminder of how volatile this market can be.

But this isn’t a story of luck. It’s about how a measured approach, patience, and understanding of market cycles helped turn red back to black.

The Entry: Riding High on Momentum

Picture this: an investor buys SOL at $148. Sentiment is bullish. Bitcoin is gaining ground, Ethereum is reclaiming dominance, and Solana — backed by strong developer activity and a growing DeFi ecosystem — looks ready to challenge its $180 resistance.

But the rally fades.

Macro uncertainty creeps in. Hype around ETF approvals cools. Traders rotate back into Bitcoin. Like many altcoins, Solana gets dragged down — fast. In just a few days, it tumbles nearly 15%, bottoming out at $126.80.

In addition to the audit, WLF is preparing to launch a mobile app aimed at simplifying cryptocurrency use for everyday investors. “We’re going to have very transparent auditing from a financial level,” Folkman emphasized.

As Ripple Aims for $7, LILPEPE Emerges as a Surprising Safe Haven in 2025

With XRP targeting fresh highs between $5 and $7, investors in 2025 are rethinking what makes a crypto asset “safe.” Ripple remains a heavyweight thanks to its institutional backing and regulatory clarity. But a new contender is drawing attention—not from hype, but from innovation.

LILPEPE: A Memecoin with Infrastructure

Enter LILPEPE, a project that’s flipping the meme coin script. Rather than chasing virality on Ethereum’s congested Layer-1, LILPEPE is building its own fast, low-fee Layer-2 blockchain—an ecosystem purpose-built for fair, frictionless meme token launches.

With sniper bot-resistant smart contracts, zero trading taxes, and an infrastructure optimized for meme culture, LILPEPE is more than just another token. It’s a platform designed to give creators a secure, scalable environment to launch and grow their own communities.

As XRP continues its climb, some investors are finding unexpected stability in the tech-driven approach behind LILPEPE. In 2025, safety might not mean sticking with the old guard—but backing projects that build for the future.

XRP Rebounds from $1.92, but Low Volume Threatens Rally Sustainability

XRP has staged a strong rebound after dipping to the $1.92 support level, tapping into a key liquidity zone. The recovery pushed the price back above several key levels, offering a temporary boost after a multi-day correction.

The $1.92 area, located just below the value area low of XRP’s current trading range, attracted substantial liquidity. This influx helped spark an impulsive bounce, driving XRP above the point of control and toward the $2.09 level—now acting as a crucial short-term support.

However, despite the technical recovery, weak trading volume raises concerns. Without solid buying interest to defend the $2.09 zone, XRP’s rally could lose steam and risk becoming another short-lived upswing.
