DDC Enterprise Buys 38 More Bitcoin – Norma Chu Aims for Global BTC Dominance

DDC Enterprise is getting serious with Bitcoin . On June 12, the company announced the buying of 38 more BTC, bringing their total reserves to 138 crypto. Their average cost now stands at $78,582 per BTC, up 22% from their last acquisition in May.

CEO Norma Chu confidently stated: “Today’s 38 BTC acquisition proves our focused execution. We aim for higher BTC yield return for our shareholders.”

With this move, DDC steps into the elite circle of BTC-heavy corporations like MicroStrategy and Gamestop, showing that Bitcoin is becoming a core asset — not just a trend.

Binance Officially Enters Syria – Financial Freedom for a Nation in Need

In a groundbreaking move, Binance announced its official entry into Syria — giving millions of people in the country access to crypto trading for the first time. With U.S. sanctions partially lifted last month, Binance wasted no time opening registrations, ID verification, and full access to Spot, Futures, P2P, BNB Pay, and Earn.

MENA official X account welcomed Syria with the post:
“Welcome, Syria. With sanctions lifted, it’s time to bring financial freedom to everyone.”

Trump–Musk Fight Ends as Elon Apologizes — Tesla Stock Rises

After weeks of heated exchanges and bold accusations, Elon Musk has apologized publicly to U.S. President Donald Trump. On Tuesday night, Musk admitted he “went too far” with his earlier statements — including claims about Trump’s role in delaying Epstein file releases and winning the 2024 elections with Musk’s help.

This public de-escalation had an immediate market effect — Tesla stock edged up slightly, reflecting improved investor sentiment. 

ProShares XRP ETF Gets Review Date

On June 11, ProShares submitted a post-effective amendment to the SEC for its XRP ETF, setting a target launch date of June 25, 2025. However, this is not an official approval — it's a procedural move to keep the ETF under active review.

Ripple’s legal uncertainty still casts a shadow, and SEC approval remains pending. 

WLFI Trump Family Project Adds New Features — Only Bridge Is Live for Now

According to Wu Blockchain , the Trump-backed crypto project WLFI just rolled out updates on its official website. The new modules include:

• Bridge (now live)

• Swap, Lending, and WLFI App (still marked as “Coming Soon”)

This project has generated buzz for its blend of politics and DeFi ambitions. But for now, only one of the new tools is functioning. The rest are in development, and investors are waiting to see if WLFI can turn its hype into actual utility.

Final Thoughts

• A geopolitical breakthrough for Binance

• A billionaire feud cooling off

• An ETF inching closer to reality

• And a political project rolling out Web3 tools

Crypto is no longer just about coins and tokens. It’s about access, power, politics, and innovation — all in real-time.
