Happy Thursday, Zingernation! How would you feel if Bitcoin went to $350K next year? Probably pretty good and guess who predicted this price target…
Today, we cover who thinks you are '“being programmed,” what big purchase Robinhood made and more.
Plus, our partner brings a first-of-its-kind digital solution to the global commodities supply chain sector.
MARKET SNAPSHOT
TOP STORY
Briefly: Jack Dorsey thinks you (and we and everyone else) is “being programmed” by algorithms and the content we consume.
So Basically: The ‘free speech’ debate is a distraction, said Jack. It should be about free will. But black box algorithms mean we have increasingly less of it.
So Then: Open-source algorithms aren’t the solution. A better one would be a marketplace of algorithms, where you can choose from. Sound good?
So What: Elon Musk thinks Jack is right. But he didn’t comment on Jack’s Satoshi shirt he was wearing. Kinda looked like the one he wore at the Super Bowl…

FIVE ZINGERS
Whales Accumulating: Whales are accumulating Cardano, Jasmy Coin and this one very popular dogcoin. Read which one that is.
Rich Dad: Robert Kiyosaki might become an even richer dad if his $350K price target by next August hits. Here’s what he had to say about Bitcoin.
Target Acquired: Van Eck is targeting $22K for ETH by 2030. That’s the ‘neutral case.’ The bullish case is higher. A lot higher.
17 And Counting: That’s how many days Bitcoin ETFs have seen inflows. How much longer can this streak last and will it take us to ATHs?
Massive Plans: That’s what Shytoshi Kusama announced for Shiba Inu. How massive exactly? Read about it here.
FINTECH FOCUS
Briefly: Boom baby! Robinhood bought Bitstamp for $200 million. Crypto might soon become the future of finance again.
What Happened: “We believe crypto will fundamentally reorganize the financial system, and we're acquiring Bitstamp to accelerate our vision,” Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev said.
What Else: “The acquisition of Bitstamp is a major step in growing our crypto business,” said Johann Kerbrat, General Manager of Robinhood Crypto. Bitstamp features 85 tradable digital assets on its exchange.
Why It Matters: The crypto community thinks this is “massive” and “absolute chad behavior.” Agree?
