What the SEC’s recent move to regulate the entire crypto space has been making headlines, and for good reason. Case dropping against power players such as Yuga Labs and OpenSea represents a true seismic shift. Further, regulators appear to be letting up on their war against centralized exchanges (CEXs) like...
Alright, fam, let's get real. Remember when Dogecoin was all the rage? Like when your uncle, who still thinks Internet Explorer is the future, was all of a sudden a crypto expert. Good times. Or were they? The DeFi market plummeted by $48 billion recently. Ouch. And while the crypto...
Excited about the launch of “Base is for everyone”? It was meant to be this really funny, joke-y, self-aware meme coin, a big middle finger to the seriousness of crypto. I saw it, chuckled, and thought, "Okay, this is Web3 absurdity at its finest." Then, BAM! $17 million market cap...

Alright, buckle up, buttercups. Because things are about to get yuuuuge. You think Bitcoin hitting $85K is wild? Just wait. We're talking about a potential moon mission fueled by the most unlikely of captains: Donald J. Trump. And it will all happen through the sheer, unadulterated magical power of memes.Powell's...
Okay, let's be honest. Safe to say that Q1 2025 wasn’t exactly a banner quarter for DeFi. As the rest of the market went into freefall, Bitcoin proved its safe haven status yet again. Speaking of meme coins, the “Libra Incident” was a reminder that hype alone won’t create lasting...
