Is 2025 going to be the year altcoins finally escape Bitcoin’s gravitational pull? The technical analysis and price predictions are all over the place. I’d like to better understand what’s exciting about them that would draw folks to these digital assets. Beyond that, I’m eager to look at what this...

Even digital granddaddy Bitcoin is shrugging out under these war drums exchanging hands around $27,000 though the Iran-Israel conflict plays out. It's hovering around that $105,000 mark, acting like nothing's happening. You’re hearing everybody talk about it as a safe haven, a digital gold. But are we being played?Bitcoin's Safety?...

Bitcoin's supposed resilience in the face of the Israel-Iran conflict is unsettling, isn't it? As the whole world holds its breath, and global stock markets prepare for the usual fallout, Bitcoin appears to be doing just fine. Too stable, perhaps. It's easy to point to ETF inflows and the lack...

The excitement about Rexas Finance (RXS) is on a whole other level. Whether it’s $49.3 million raised in presale, their claims of being able to revolutionize Real World Assets (RWAs), or price predictions that have them going to the moon — shibs. Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Remember Bitconnect?...

Right now, Mayor Adams is looking to gamble your tax dollars on Bitcoin. Let's be blunt: is this visionary leadership, or a reckless roll of the dice with the city's future? Is this innovation or insanity?Schools or Satoshis: What's the Priority?Think about it. Each dollar you choose to fund Bitbond...

Okay, let’s be real. Prior to last week’s announcement, the SEC’s DeFi guidance seemed more like a ragged posse pursuing phantoms in a deserted Wild West town. Now, all of a sudden, they want to discuss moving toward building fences as opposed to just throwing lead around. This change –...

The air in the crypto world has been filled with fear for many years, would you say? We’ve all felt that belly-crawling dread. One poorly thought out regulatory sledgehammer would destroy the growing DeFi ecosystem. We’ll call it an innovation-ain’t-happening-with-this-existential-crisis – that is, the very real possibility that innovation will...

Look, let’s face it, we all know what the headlines look like. Bitcoin’s down, Ethereum’s down, and Dogecoin … yeah, Dogecoin just being Dogecoin. Even though the headlines yell about liquidations in the market and open interest, there’s more to the story that deserves unpacking here. Is this merely bureaucratic...
