US retains only 15% of seized Shiba Inu value; Bitcoin outshines AI as inflation hedge; whales buy 70M XRP.

The US Justice Department transferred 54.89 billion Shiba Inu (SHIB) tokens seized from FTX, but their value dropped 85% from $1.55 million to about $235,500 during legal proceedings, meaning the government retained only 15% of the original dollar value. Binance founder Changpeng Zhao emphasized Bitcoin's fixed supply as a true inflation hedge, unlike AI which boosts productivity but can't protect purchasing power. Meanwhile, large investors accumulated 70 million XRP tokens worth around $77 million, defending support near $1.08 as XRP price stabilized. The crypto market shows signs of recovery with Bitcoin holding above $65,000 amid easing US inflation and renewed interest in Bitcoin ETFs.
