☕️ GM Dear Plebs!

Here is Crox Road, your daily dose of orange pill that will turn you into a Bitcoin Maxi.

The menu for today:

Binance, the crypto magnate, just waved goodbye to $125 million in Bitcoin – talk about sending Bitcoin on an expedition! With around 560k Bitcoins under its digital assets, Binance is like a modern-day dragon, and guess what? Most of that treasure is owned by Binance users! They're the keepers for brave crypto knights. And when a BSC hacker tried to sneak into Venus Finance's bridge, Binance swooped in with $30 million to save the day.

Binance's Bitcoin Struggles: View and analysis

Binance's been doing some Bitcoin closet cleaning to give BNB a pep talk – But are they going all-in or just dipping a toe? Even the Binance CEO, Changpeng Zhao, is keeping us on the edge with radio silence .Our crypto Sherlock, Daan from Crypto Rover, is giving us a heads-up about a possible black swan event. This might get scarier than the FTX-Alameda drama.

Daan thinks Bitcoin's taking a mini-dump, aiming for a cozy spot at $24.7k.If the bulls (not the ones with horns, the crypto champs) team up, we might just get a quick ride to $30k. BNB price is crucial for the short term as traders keep an eagle eye on the company's coin.

Before FTX went boom💥, there were stories about loans being turned into cash, and now Binance is having a similar storyline. Because of this, the crypto expert Daan from Crypto Rover is saying, "Hey, investors, keep your eyes open! Binance might dance the same risky moves."

Bitcoin's movements being less jumpy right now matches up with not-so-busy BTC futures and options trading. And it's not just Bitcoin – even Ethereum is hitting really low trading levels, dropping below where it was in January 2023. Overall, Bitcoin's derivatives trading is around $19 billion, getting close to what it was in January 2023.

Beyond the Hype: The Face Behind the World's 3rd Biggest Bitcoin StashThere's been a big change in the Bitcoin game! A new player with the address bc1q....59v2 is now shining as the world's third-largest Bitcoin holder.

Who's the sly dog behind this mountain of Bitcoins? Surprise, surprise – it's Gemini! And you know what? This bombshell of a discovery is like dropping a mic on all those wild rumors flying around. Turns out, in the land of crypto, cold, hard data rules – sorry, gossip!

The top two Bitcoin holders are Binance Cold Wallet and Bitfinex Cold Wallet. They've been chilling in those spots for a while now, like the cool kids of town.

Gemini's Bitcoin stash spill has set the record straight on who's number three.

💳 Bitcoin vs The Conventional Payment Methods

In this exclusive Crox Road series we bring a comparison between the Mighty Bitcoin and the conventional payment methods. We will start with Bitcoin vs Cash. And as this series will go on we will discuss other payment methods.

Bitcoin vs. cash :

Let's start with cash – the OG payment method! As society grew, we wanted a steady way to trade, and voila, cash was born. Quick and simple, you hand it over and you're good to go. Cash is like the easy button of payments, instant and universally understood. So, when it comes to paying, cash is as easy as it gets! But compared to Bitcoin, Cash looks like a kid from the next street.
