Lekker Capital CIO Quinn Thompson argues that the recent crypto market liquidation event represents a rare positioning washout that has left consensus sentiment misaligned with reality. He contends that getting bearish after such deep deleveraging events historically proves to be poor timing.

During a summit in Tianjin, President Xi Jinping engaged in a carefully orchestrated display of diplomatic unity with Vladimir Putin and Narendra Modi, two key partners in countering US global dominance.

Analysts, including Wendy Cutler of the Asia Society Policy Institute, interpret this as a message that China cannot be easily isolated or pressured by the US, reflecting its confidence in leveraging economic ties and strategic partnerships to reshape global dynamics.

Cybercriminals hijacked British politician Lucy Powell’s verified X account to promote a fake cryptocurrency, ‘House of Commons Coin (HCC),’ falsely claiming it was a community-driven digital asset. The breach, swiftly addressed by Powell’s office, underscores a rising pattern of hackers leveraging trusted public figures to legitimize scam tokens. Similar incidents have occurred globally, including in Argentina and the Philippines, where politicians’ accounts were compromised to push dubious crypto projects. These attacks exploit the credibility of officials to manipulate investors, often leading to financial losses. The trend echoes past high-profile breaches, such as the 2020 Twitter hack involving Barack Obama and Elon Musk, where fraudulent Bitcoin doubling schemes were promoted.
