TOP STORY
Pseudonymous millionaire crypto trader Unipcs has taken a $15 million hit in what he called the most “brutal” liquidation in crypto history.
Unipcs reported roughly $15 million wiped out just before liquidation as his positions in Bonk and Fartcoin got wiped out.
His spot holdings remained largely intact, Unipcs said, explaining that while Bitcoin and Ethereum fell roughly 13%, altcoins and meme coins plummeted 70%–99% within minutes.

FINTECH FOCUS
BlackRock Inc. CEO Larry Fink said cryptocurrencies have a legitimate role similar to gold, reversing his earlier skepticism during an interview with CBS’s 60 Minutes.
Fink acknowledged that he once described Bitcoin as “the domain of money launderers and thieves,” but said markets had reshaped his view.
“There is a role for crypto in the same way there is a role for gold,” he told 60 Minutes, calling it an alternative asset for investors seeking diversification.
He added that while the asset class can provide balance within a portfolio, investors should not treat it as a major holding.
