The Shit to Know Thursdays

Alright man look, 

It’s been a pretty crazy week. Below is what matters…

Market Indices & Commodities

Crypto
Bitcoin Hits $100k

Holy shit we got a $100,000 Bitcoin before 2025.

Let’s not take the piss here, this is clearly linked to Trump’s election victory. He has promised to make America the “crypto capital” of the world.

What really pushed Bitcoin over the edge was when Trump said he would nominate former SEC commissioner Paul Atkins to be commissioner again. This guy is way more pro-crypto than Gary Gensler.

We all know crypto has been on one hell of a bull run. I guess the real question here is, how much higher can it go?

Crime
UnitedHealthcare CEO Assassinated

Well it’s safe to say that the NYPD have their hands full right now.

UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was gunned down early Wednesday morning outside the New York Hilton Midtown hotel. The assailant fired multiple rounds from a suppressed 9mm pistol.

The shooter is still at large.

Now a lot of people have beef with the US private health insurance system, and UnitedHealthcare was no different. In fact, the company has a way above industry average claim denial rate on their insurance of 30%.

Thompson had worked at the company for decades and really rose up the ranks.

It’ll be interesting to see how this plays out, but I sure as shit hope they catch the bastard.

Immigration
New Most Common Male Name in England: Muhammad

The most common name in England and Wales for newborns last year was “Muhammad”. This overtook the name ‘Noah’ from the year before.

The name Muhammad has been in the top 10 since 2016. The fact it is now at number one shows how the UK is being affected by mass migration.

The UK has gone from being 99% ethnic white British in 1951 to only 76.8% in 2021.

There are now double the amount of Muslims in England than there were in 2001, at 6% of the population.

Europe is becoming less and less European…
