Hello there 👋

Welcome to another Coinigy roundup.

Firstly, a big shout out to the TON community for the weekend pump.

  • Curve founder repays 93% of $10M bad debt stemming from liquidation
  • Roaring Kitty buys another 4M GME stocks, birthing conspiracy theory
  • Trump Wants All Remaining Bitcoin Mined In The United States
