The excitement driving this month’s crypto bus has very little to do with rising crypto prices. While Bitcoin's dominance, ETF inflows, and price predictions are exciting, they overshadow a far more crucial narrative: Bitcoin's potential to empower the underserved. The sort of real financial inclusion we’ve been calling for, not...
Alright, let's be real. For years, Bitcoin was the eccentric uncle at the family reunion. As an idea, it generated excitement and a whiff of possibility, but it was too often left outside the bounds of polite society. Zoom ahead to the present day! Uncle Bitcoin is the life of...
Bitcoin’s recent high—peaking at over $64,000 in mid May—was hard to miss. Today, everyone is asking if this is the start of a new long-term bull market or a flash-in-the-pan rally. There are a host of reasons behind this recent performance— ETF inflows, the upcoming halving event, continuing geopolitical conflicts...
The current technical and fundamental processes have arguably positioned Bitcoin for its next growth cycle. This skyrocketing boom is driven by the recent halving event, record inflows into spot Bitcoin ETFs, and new shifting global economic trends. Investors and analysts have reason to be optimistic again in large part due...
Consider Aicha, a single mother in Nigeria, unable to get an affordable loan to grow her street food business. Traditional lenders? Bureaucratic red tape, sky-high interest rates and stacks of paperwork closed the door on her. This is not only Aicha’s story — it’s the case for billions currently excluded...
Bitcoin, the leading cryptocurrency, is recognized as a store of value and ranks among the world's top 10 most valuable assets. Bitcoin has definitely grown in prominence, though a majority of it is still dormant. Early 2025 will see more than 62% of the current active supply with a lack...
Think of it as a slumbering giant, full of promise and possibility, yet hardly tapped. Such is the current arresting drabness of idle Bitcoin. Jason, a blogger known for making complex topics easy to understand, is here to explore how unlocking this dormant Bitcoin could supercharge the Decentralized Finance (DeFi)...
Remember Doge? Shiba Inu? Bonk? Floki? Can you think back to the pure, uncut fuckery when these meme coins started making waves? Good. Now, picture that same chaos, but much more radically, driven by Bitcoin. Yes, that Bitcoin. The other one your uncle keeps telling you is “digital gold.”Dormant Bitcoin...
Even the behemoth of crypto exchanges — Binance — couldn’t resist listing Lorenzo Protocol’s BANK perpetual futures as the next asset. The immediate reaction? The result was a fairly predictable pump, soon followed by an equally predictable retrace. And everybody is wondering if this is the beginning of a new...
For the last several years, advocates have touted Bitcoin as being "digital gold." They envision it as a protection against inflation and a safe-haven asset when the economy is turning. A rising chorus of investors is challenging this comparison. They are turning back to physical gold as a more stable...
We all have to adapt Ethereum, the world’s most popular blockchain platform, is under an unprecedented strain. Scalability One of the primary areas of focus, is the scalability. This dimension highlights the need to process a higher and larger number of transactions in a speedy, user-friendly manner. Vitalik Buterin, the...
Like much of the crypto world, the opinions are varied and robust. For example, founder of rival blockchain Cardano Charles Hoskinson is not afraid to make big predictions. Recently, he's been vocal about his doubts regarding Ethereum's long-term success, even going so far as to question its fundamental protocol and...
Okay, let's be real. When Vitalik starts explaining why instruction set architectures are the least important thing in a computer, we all, myself included, tune out. And just hear me out on this one! This RISC-V technology might be just the thing to unlock Ethereum’s full potential. It’s not only...
Meet the guy who believes Ethereum’s one foot in the grave. Okay, boomer blockchain. While the Cardano founder’s been busy making pronouncements from his digital throne, the NFT community's reaction is less "panic" and more "is this guy serious?"Let’s face it, this is not the first time anyone has announced...
Speaking of grenades, the other Charles—Hoskinson—tossed another one into the crypto pond, making a dramatic prediction that Ethereum will die in 10-15 years. Is he really a visionary, or is this the pot calling the kettle black? In the spirit of vigorous skepticism, let’s take apart his case. After all,...
Vitalik’s RISC-V proposal…that’s the equivalent of betting the farm, right? We're talking about ripping out the engine of a Formula 1 car while it's still racing and replacing it with something...potentially faster. The promise? A 100x speed boost for zero-knowledge proofs. A hundred. Now that’s the kind of number that...
