After catching attention at just $100K market cap (with Krill reportedly among the early shillers in the Hype TG chat), the token surged to $4 million. Twitter is flooded with remixed hoodrat images, turning this low-effort meme into a full-blown culture coin, up 2,692% today and currently at a $2.3 Million market cap.

BITCOIN HITS ATH🗣
Bitcoin surged to a new all-time high of $109 Thousand today following the announcement of a 90 day trade agreement between the US and China, which eased macroeconomic tensions and boosted investor confidence. The rally also coincided with a Russia Ukraine ceasefire push and improving regulatory signals, including the GENIUS Act advancing in the Senate. Bitcoin's rise from a low of $74 Thousand in early April marks a 46% recovery, with $BTC now holding over 60% of the total $3.42 trillion crypto market cap. TradFi Update TradFi Update!!!! BlackRock’s IBIT(Bitcoin) ETF seeing $9 billion in inflows, and MicroStrategy holding over 576,000 BTC at a 64% profit. The bullish momentum triggered over $50 million in liquidations of Bitcoin shorts within an hour. And, IBIT is now Top 5 In ETF inflows this year!
Bitcoin just broke $109,000. This means it’s going to $1 million next. See chart below:

SOLANA INTRODUCES NEW TECH
Solana developers have proposed a major protocol upgrade called Alpenglow that aims to replace its existing Proof of History and Tower BFT consensus mechanisms with two new systems: Votor and Rotor. Designed by infrastructure firm Anza, a Solana Labs spinout, Alpenglow targets sub second finality by reducing latency from the current 13 seconds to as low as 100 milliseconds. Votor handles rapid block finalization with fewer voting rounds, while Rotor improves network data transmission by optimizing node relays. If implemented, this would mark the biggest core change in Solana’s history and enable new real time use cases like instant payments, lag free gaming, and TikTok like apps. No launch date has been set, but internal backing from Solana leadership signals a strong likelihood of adoption, possibly by late 2025 or early 2026.
1/ Introducing the largest Solana Protocol change ever: Alpenglow, Solana's new consensus protocol conceived by the Anza Research team. Say goodbye to Tower BFT and Proof of History. Say hello to Votor & Rotor 🧵👇
