ROLLUP: Strategic Bitcoin Reserve | White House Digital Summit | Saylor's $21B BTC Bid | HyperLiquid
This week, the U.S. establishes its long-awaited Strategic Bitcoin Reserve yet the charts barely move and questions remain about altcoins like ADA, XRP, and SOL. A high-profile White House Digital Summit draws big names but yields few concrete regulatory wins. Meanwhile, HyperLiquid got exploited? Not quite but we'll get into that this week and so much more.
