Waarom duurt het 7 dagen voordat Nederlandse media ook eindelijk wakker worden over Box 3? De rest van de wereld had dit afgelopen weekend al door. Snappen onze politici en journalisten eigenlijk wel wat hier allemaal gebeurt en hoe schadelijk dit is?

Zin om je “hardwerkende Nederlanders” het land uit te jagen en ons investeringsklimaat om zeep te helpen bedoel je? Trek nou AUB snel die achterlijke box 3 wet in want de schade is al enorm en wordt alleen maar groter hoe langer je daarmee wacht.

The insane 36% unrealized gain tax may have passed in the house, but the law still has to pass the senate.

This website makes it incredibly easy to e-mail a bunch of senators & make your voice heard.

Do your duty, and send at least 5 today. 👇🏼

Apparently a market maker's bot just malfunctioned and liquidated ~$90M in $ETH shorts in under an hour.

About an hour ago, a grid trading bot went haywire during the worst possible moment - low weekend liquidity.

The bot started firing off frantic buy and sell orders that weren't responding to real market conditions.

These erratic orders amplified price swings that would normally get absorbed.

$ETH whipsawed violently.

The result: $87M in $ETH shorts erased in 60 minutes.

Total 24-hour $ETH short liquidations hit $124M.

Here's what made this so destructive:

Grid bots work by placing buy orders below price and sell orders above price in a "grid" pattern.

When one breaks, it doesn't just stop trading - it can start executing both sides rapidly, creating artificial volatility that triggers cascading liquidations.

Weekend liquidity is already 40-60% thinner than weekday volume.

That thin order book meant the bot's erratic orders moved price far more than they would have on a Tuesday afternoon.

The status update from Holochain:

via Eric Harris-Braun, Holochain co-founder and Executive Director (email)

"As we recently announced in our livestream, Holo blog, and the Holochain Foundation strategic update, we’re making some pretty significant changes to both our leadership and our technology roadmap, and we wanted to provide you with an overview of what’s happening.

I’ve recently stepped in to lead Holo, where I’ll be bringing my many years of Holochain technical expertise to bear. We extend our deep gratitude to Mary Camacho for her years of leadership and contributions as she transitions out of her role as Executive Director.

We’ve been carefully evaluating the best path forward for hosting in the context of what we have come to understand from our community and end-users. Bluntly, our original hosting platform solution created unnecessary friction for people simply trying to get started. There are more details about those learnings in the above links.

We’ve been listening closely to you, our community, and to signals from the broader market, and over the past several months we have been hard at work testing the new Allograph network and planning for the significant migration effort it requires. It’s clear to us that there are significant challenges here, and our strategic review is ongoing.

For some time, we have known that we needed to move hosting beyond hardware, and we've said as much publicly: we're not a hardware company, and the original HoloPorts are now approaching eight years old. Critically, we must create the best possible path to scale - and having specialized hardware has become a larger obstacle to that. The objective mathematical reality of networks is that the bigger they are, the better they are - for all participants.

At the same time, and in an effort to radically simplify the delivery of value to the network, we have also developed Edge Node. Edge Node is a lightweight open-source, OCI-compliant container image that can run on any physical or virtual machine as an always-on node for any instance of any hApp.

We believe this will unleash new possibilities for the ecosystem, ushering in the next level of peer-to-peer, serverless usability for hApps.

While not yet the fully integrated Holo Hosting Marketplace many of you have been waiting for, it is a deliberate strategic move to accelerate Holochain adoption, hApp development, and real-world usage. By making it simple to launch always-on nodes anywhere, we’re laying the groundwork for that future marketplace.'

The panther pictures are a signature meme and inside joke in his community, tied to a serendipitous event from the early days of crypto hype around 2021. According to his own recounting, during a period when people were blindly buying any token that caught their eye, he simply posted a cool black panther image because he liked its vibe—no endorsement intended. Remarkably, followers misinterpreted it as a subtle signal and FOMO’d (fear of missing out) into a token called PantherCoin, which then skyrocketed in price. This unintended “call” turned the image into a legendary good-luck charm and cultural staple for his audience.
Since then, the panther pic has evolved into a recurring signal for bullish market moves, especially Bitcoin pumps. He drops variations of it (often a misty, intense black panther staring ahead) when he senses an uptrend, like before BTC hits key levels (e.g., above $50K, $70K, or new ATHs). Real OGs (original followers) recognize it as a wink to that wild origin story, and it’s become a ritual—sometimes edited with green candles or dildos for humor. The linked post from September 12, 2025 (ID: 1966580974755385571) is a direct nod to this lore, teasing “The story behind the panther pic.. Who knows 📷” alongside one such image, sparking replies from fans hyping their own tokens or joking about its power.
In essence, the panther embodies CryptoWizardd’s accidental prophetic status in crypto Twitter— a mix of meme magic, community lore, and uncanny timing that’s kept his feed engaging for years.

Estimate for All Combined

There were over 30 celebrity memecoins launched in 2024 alone, with more in 2025 (e.g., YZY in August 2025). If we aggregate reported extractions and assume an average of $3-5 million per coin based on Arora’s average ($3 million across his 10+ projects) and similar patterns in others, the total extracted liquidity could exceed $100 million. This is a conservative estimate, as not all projects have public on-chain breakdowns, and some (like Hailey Welch’s HAWK) show 96% supply controlled by teams/insiders without precise profit figures.
