Today’s Buzz — Apr 20, 2026

01 — $BTC | $75,059

Strategy just made its 3rd largest Bitcoin purchase ever — 34,164 BTC for $2.54 billion. Total stack: 815,061 BTC. Then on Sunday, Michael Saylor posted his orange dots chart with the caption “Think even Bigger.” That’s a signal. Another purchase is likely already in motion. Institutional accumulation at this scale doesn’t slow down — it compounds.

02 — $ETH | $2,309

Bitmine had its biggest buying week of 2026 — 101,627 ETH, worth $230M+. Holdings now stand at 4.97 million ETH, with 3.33 million actively staked generating $221M in annualised revenue. Chairman Tom Lee’s view: ETH is in the final stages of the crypto mini-winter. Worth watching how ETH reacts as the macro clears.

03 — $AAVE | Watch Carefully

The story everyone in DeFi is talking about. The Kelp hack drained $290M — attackers used the drained rsETH as collateral on Aave to borrow wETH, leaving bad debt behind. $6B in deposits fled Aave over the weekend. DeFi TVL dropped $13B in 48 hours. AAVE is down 22.9%. If you have exposure to DeFi protocols right now, review your positions carefully.

Not financial advice. DYOR.
