Crypto Turns Dark: Meme Coins, Solana Surge, and the USDH Showdown

In this episode of The Weekly, @_dsencil and @graminitha1 dive into one of the most disturbing crypto stories of the year — a meme coin minted within minutes of Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin being arrested.

We also unpack the major Solana ETF buzz, Forward Industries’ $1.58B SOL play, and the wild “bachelor-style” bidding war for USDH on Hyperliquid. Plus: Tether’s new USAT stablecoin and the Bank of England’s proposal to cap your stablecoin holdings.
