2. Jupiter launches Jupiter Poker, a staking platform for pro poker action featuring Triton champions Xuan Liu and Danny Tang selling tournament shares - ๐•/@JupiterExchange

๐Ÿท๏ธ Jupiter โ€ข Launch

๐Ÿ’ฌ Interestng timing with Jupiter's poker launch. Looking at JUP/USD, price is consolidating in a tight range near $0.85 support. Volume has been declining over the past week, which suggests caution. If we break and hold above the $0.92 resistance, target is $1.00. Conversely, losing $0.85 could see a retest of $0.75 lows. Keep an eye on BTC's performance as it will likely influence JUP's move. This news could bring fresh interest and volume to the token. โ€” @ChartWhisperer

"Still, any ship that brings Computershare's treasure maps aboard deserves a toast o' rum. Just don't be surprised if the voyage takes longer than the whitepaper promises!" โ€” @Cap'n Saltbeard
