CZ > Bill Gates? Just 1.5 years out of jail, CZ’s net worth hits $111B, up $64B this year, thanks to Binance’s $100B valuation. 🤫
IRS Crypto Checks: New form lists 100+ platforms & wallets. Users must report all interactions or face perjury charges. Wonder if Trump will fill it out?
Arthur Hayes: Not buying BTC right now. Waiting for Fed policy to soften and new printing presses to fire up. Forget about low-rate promises from Iran tensions.

Back in 2010, someone could have bought 220 BTC for $1, but decided: “F*ck that shit.”
Today, that same 220 BTC is worth roughly $15 million.
You can only imagine their reaction now 😂

BTC is currently trading around $73,700 and so far the crypto market is holding up noticeably stronger than one might expect given the current geopolitical instability. There are also rumors that in the Middle East, some capital is shifting from gold into BTC - after all, you can’t exactly carry a lot of metal in your pockets if you need to move quickly. 👀😄

Looks like a new educational piece on how Bitcoin works just dropped - apparently for Boris Johnson.
The former UK prime minister recently said he suspects Bitcoin might resemble a Ponzi scheme after hearing about an investor friend who lost money in BTC.
He also argued that crypto has no central authority - meaning if something goes wrong, there’s “no one to fire and no one to complain to.”
Meanwhile, Strategy founder Michael Saylor pointed out a simple detail: a Ponzi scheme requires a central operator promising returns.
Bitcoin has neither - just an open, decentralized network. 🚀

Lately I keep hearing the same thing: “There are no opportunities left in crypto.” The market feels quiet, altcoins barely move, and many people assume nothing interesting is happening.
But the more time I spend digging into different sectors, the more it feels like the opposite is true.
One area I’m watching closely is RWA.
The idea is to bring traditional financial assets like bonds, credit, or funds onto the blockchain.
For example, protocols like Ondo Finance allow us to gain exposure to tokenized U.S. Treasury bills. Instead of holding traditional bonds through banks, users can buy tokens backed by those assets and earn roughly 4–7% annual yield in dollars.
Another interesting case is MakerDAO. The protocol began allocating part of its reserves into real-world assets such as U.S. Treasuries, and today a large portion of Maker’s revenue is generated from those positions. In other words, a DeFi protocol is effectively earning income from traditional financial instruments.
AI agents.
AI is another area where practical applications are already emerging. Some trading systems now use machine-learning models to analyze market data and execute strategies automatically.
In one experimental framework published by researchers, an AI trading agent executed over 200 trades in a month and achieved about 16% ROI during the testing period. But remember - ALWAYS DYOR!
To me, the market right now isn’t empty. It’s just shifting toward deeper infrastructure and new technologies.

🚀 Kiyosaki predicts BTC could hit $750,000 after the market crash!
After the crisis, he expects: Bitcoin - $750,000, Gold - $35,000, Silver - $200, Ethereum - $95,000. But first, can we just make BTC to 80K? Then we’ll talk about the hundreds! 😅

🚨 Kraken backs off its IPO
The crypto exchange just hit pause - the market’s too weak: volumes are down, BTC is slipping, and valuations aren’t what they used to be.
Honestly? Not surprising.
Looks like 2026 won’t be about “easy money,” but survival and strong players.

Jerome Powell once again highlighted the strength of the US economy, but rate cuts are still on hold due to inflation risks.
Current Federal Reserve plan: just one rate cut by year-end.
The biggest twist - Powell says he may remain interim Fed Chair after May if Congress doesn’t confirm Kevin Warsh.
