ROLLUP: $100k BTC? | Gensler Resignation | Trump’s ‘Crypto Czar’ | Memecoin Rugs

Bitcoin soared to new all-time highs as MicroStrategy led massive BTC buys, and BlackRock's ETF options hit $1.9B volume. Meanwhile, a 13-year-old executed a rug pull, sparking chaos and meme token wars.

On the regulatory front, SEC Chair Gary Gensler announced his resignation effective January 20, 2025, coinciding with President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration. Trump teased a "Crypto Czar," while 18 states sued the SEC. Binance launched BFUSD with 19.55% APY, challenging Coinbase’s USDC yield.

Elsewhere, Solana reached new highs, McDonald’s partnered with Doodles, and Tether unveiled a tokenization platform. The crypto world remains as unpredictable as ever!
