Odaily reports that Machi Big Brother posted on X: "ETH love you 3000," seemingly hinting at his expectation that ETH could reach a target price of $3,000.

In the movie, the line is spoken by Tony Stark's daughter Morgan as a response to her father's "I love you tons," and is later used again by Iron Man in his final message, becoming an important emotional thread for the character.

According to a filing submitted by Riot Platforms to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the company voluntarily repaid all outstanding borrowings and accrued interest owed to Coinbase Credit on September 21, and terminated its previously $200 million credit facility, incurring no early termination fees or penalties. The loan had been fully drawn by Riot, carried a fixed annual interest rate of 6.15%, and had an original maturity date of April 20, 2027. As of June 30, Riot had pledged 5,821 BTC as collateral for the loan, valued at approximately $340.7 million, representing roughly 51% of the company's total BTC holdings at the time; with the loan repaid, Coinbase's security interest in the related collateral has been released accordingly. Riot initially secured a $100 million Bitcoin-backed loan in April 2025 and increased the facility to $200 million the following month. This repayment comes approximately 7 months ahead of the amended maturity date.
Odaily report: Bonk Guy posted on X platform stating that he is bullish on STONK and has recently bought a large amount of STONK ecosystem tokens, but believes that the community should not view any project that appears to be a competitor as "vamping" the STONK ecosystem. He stated that although the STONK ecosystem has strong development potential and he believes its long-term performance will be solid, the continued labeling of competing projects as "vampires" by leading voices within the ecosystem is currently the only bearish factor he sees for the ecosystem. Bonk Guy believes this situation is even more concerning than the coordinated FUD launched by PF against the STONK ecosystem and attacks from the "Scooter hater group," and stated that the market "can and will have multiple winners."
