Good morning DailyCoiners,So the UK has a new King; what does this mean for us?Absolutely nothing. Unless he reveals an NFT collection! 🤣

Let's get cracking, shall we?

⚡ Lightning Strikes at Binance
Imagine a bustling highway during peak rush hour, with vehicles inching forward in a painfully slow, stop-start manner.This is what I was thinking over the weekend as I read about the congestion experienced by the Bitcoin network due to a surge in Taproot usage and ordinal inscriptions.

Just as a groundbreaking traffic solution would be required to free up the highway, Binance took matters into its own hands to clear the backlog of Bitcoin transactions.
Snail O’Clock! 🐌
After suspending Bitcoin transactions twice in a few hours and raising withdrawal fees to tackle the heavy congestion on the network, Binance enabled Lightning Network withdrawals, similar to opening up a high-speed express lane to alleviate the gridlock and ensure a smoother flow of transactions.
With the introduction of these measures, Binance managed to accelerate the confirmation of pending transactions.
Cheetah O’Clock 🐆
As a result, BTC withdrawals resumed on the exchange, and pending transactions were processed.
This scenario highlights the importance of innovation and adaptability in addressing complex challenges.
Binance's swift actions demonstrate the potential for alleviating bottlenecks in the ever-evolving world of digital assets.

😡 PEPE Plunges; Holders Left Red Faced
In a tale that echoes the biblical parable of building a house on sand, a daring meme-coin whale has found themselves knee-deep in the fickle world of Pepe tokens.
![](https://media.beehiiv.com/cdn-cgi/image/fit=scale-down,format=auto,onerror=redirect,quality=80/uploads/asset/file/3aaff03c-1bb4-4787-83e1-c4b01eee0bf3/5c87faf2-3757-e0e5-ba78-107c70ed9f2e.gif?t=1703769910)
This foolhardy investor should perhaps have read the tale of the wise man who built his house on the rock instead of constructing their financial fortress on the shaky foundations of Pepe (PEPE) tokens.
Yeah, meme coins are a very risky gamble! 🎲
The whale enthusiast purchased roughly $3 million worth of Pepe tokens just days ago, only to see the coin's value plummet by more than 42%.
As they surveyed the sands of their unstable financial estate, the investor was left nursing an unrealized loss of around $600,000.
Oops! 🤦
Perhaps they should have paid closer attention to the cautionary tale of houses and sand.
While the world of cryptocurrencies is full of exciting opportunities, it serves as a reminder that sometimes, sticking to the tried and tested path may be the best way to keep one's financial house in order.

🎤 Bobby K to Speak on Bitcoin
In a move that could be reminiscent of tide-changing speeches throughout history, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is set to make waves at a cryptocurrency conference in Miami for his first public appearance as a US presidential candidate.
![](https://media.beehiiv.com/cdn-cgi/image/fit=scale-down,format=auto,onerror=redirect,quality=80/uploads/asset/file/74ba5dd0-f431-4a86-83f3-03a2f390f5a6/d0e113da-8db1-1055-ee84-0b00225652d3.gif?t=1703769912)
Much like a brave captain steering his ship into uncharted waters, Kennedy is navigating the stormy seas of climate change activism and cryptocurrency enthusiasm.
There be dragons…🐉
While some skeptics have raised concerns about the cryptocurrency industry's contribution to climate change, Kennedy, a self-proclaimed Bitcoin supporter, is charting a course towards dialogue and understanding.
By choosing the Bitcoin 2023 conference as his launching point, Kennedy aims to harness the winds of change and engage with a substantial segment of the voting population.
This cunning captain understands that it's essential to form alliances with both old and new supporters in the swirling currents of politics.
Clever boy!
Like a master mariner guiding his vessel through treacherous waters, Kennedy is setting his sights on the horizon, hoping to win over the hearts and minds of millions.
Will this be the tide-changing speech that defines Kennedy's campaign and gives the crypto industry the bump start it needs?
Only time will tell. ⌛
