💰What Happens to Your Crypto When You Die?
— In the world of crypto, we often talk about decentralization, security, and financial freedom. But there’s one uncomfortable question most people never address — what happens to your crypto when you die?
Unlike traditional assets, your Bitcoin wallet doesn’t come with a recovery hotline or a helpful estate planner. If you pass away without a plan, your crypto could be lost forever in the digital void.
🪦Dead Man’s Wallets: Billions Gone Forever
— According to Chainalysis, over 3 million BTC (worth tens of billions of dollars) are estimated to be lost forever — much of it likely due to death or forgotten keys. That’s nearly 14% of all Bitcoin that will never circulate again.
It’s not just Bitcoin. People are losing access to ETH, NFTs, DeFi vaults, and even Solana meme coins because of poor digital legacy planning.
👻 Crypto Ghost Protocols: What Are Your Options?
— If you’re holding crypto, you need a Crypto Will. Some emerging tools and practices include:
– Multi-sig Wallets with Deadman Switches
Create a wallet where multiple trusted parties must agree to move funds. If you’re inactive for a certain period, your designated backup gets access.
– Time-Locked Smart Contracts
You can write a smart contract to automatically transfer your assets to a family member or a lawyer if no activity is detected over X years.
– Crypto Custody Services with Estate Features
New services (like Casa or Safe) offer secure storage with inheritance protocols. They’re building tools to ensure your assets don’t die with you.
🔥BREAKING: Apple, X, Airbnb, and Google are reportedly kicking off early discussions around stablecoin integration — a major signal that Big Tech is eyeing deeper moves into the crypto payment layer as U.S. policy winds begin to shift.

🇵🇰 Pakistan has announced the establishment of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.
🎧 The Pakistani government announced at the Bitcoin 2025 conference in Las Vegas that it would establish its own strategic Bitcoin reserve. Speaking at the conference, Bilal Bin Saqib, head of the Pakistan Cryptocurrency Board, noted that he was inspired by a similar plan in the United States.
🙊 In the video, he said: "Today is a historic day, because today I announce that the government of Pakistan is establishing its own government-led Bitcoin strategic reserve. We thank the US again, because we are inspired by them."
💎 The Pakistani government also said that it would not use Bitcoin for speculation or hype, but rather to hold it as a reserve to never sell it. It was also announced that 2,000 megawatts of electricity would be allocated for Bitcoin mining and artificial intelligence data centers.
👊 This decision not only shows the growing interest and support for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in Pakistan, but also around the world. This is truly the beginning of a new era in the field of modern technology and financial innovation.

🚀 Texas is establishing a Bitcoin reserve: A new era in state finances!
🫡 Texas Governor Greg Abbott posted an article on X about the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR). This bill (SB 21) would make Texas one of the first states to hold Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as a state reserve.
🔹 About the draft law:
- Texas will fund the Bitcoin Reserve through budget funds and private donations.
- The goal is to protect against inflation and lead in financial innovation.
- If the bill is passed, Texas will become a big player in the crypto market.
🌍 Where does the Texas economy rank in the world?
Texas' gross domestic product (GDP) is $2.7 trillion (2024). This places it 8th in the world, above Canada but below France.
💰 How much Bitcoin can Texas buy?
At the current Bitcoin price of $110,000, Texas' annual budget is around $150 billion. If Texas allocated 1% of its annual budget:
- 1% ($1.5 billion) → 13636 BTC
That is, Texas can buy up to 13,000 BTC, and this amount will continue to increase each year.
📈 Signal for the market:
This news is being seen as a positive signal for Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency market. Users are joking that "Texas not only mines oil, but also Bitcoin."

🇮🇳 Indian Supreme Court: Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies should be regulated, not banned.
👨⚖️ Today, the Supreme Court of India delivered a landmark decision on Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. The court believes that instead of banning cryptocurrencies, they should be regulated.
💬 Members of the court:
"Banning can be like turning a blind eye to reality."
🔍 The origin of the decision:
The decision was made during the 2018 BitConnect fraud trial, in which a man was accused of defrauding BitConnect employees of 2,091 BTC, 11,000 LTC, and 14.5 crore rupees (about $1.75 million). The trial demanded that the government enact clear legislation on cryptocurrencies.
📊 Current status:
In India, profits from crypto trading are taxed at 30%, which indirectly confirms that they are legal. If so, why not fully regulate and monitor them?
📅 Next steps:
The government has been asked to clarify its position by July. The next hearing will be on May 30.
💡 Why is this important?
India is one of the largest markets in the world. If regulation is implemented, the country could see significant growth in the cryptocurrency sector.

⚡️ The US Federal Reserve (Fed) bought $20 billion in 3-year bonds, the largest single-day purchase since 2021.
🏦 The Fed did this to inject liquidity (cash flow) into the market, without lowering interest rates, as a sharp reduction in rates could cause panic in the market. This purchase was made through SOMA (System Open Market Account), which is one of the Fed's regular operations for reinvestment purposes.
🔄 In early 2025, the Fed switched from quantitative tightening to quantitative easing, which is being interpreted as a positive signal for assets like Bitcoin. Historically, for example, in 2021, similar liquidity injections by the Fed led to a sharp increase in the price of Bitcoin.

❓Why Do Some Cryptos Have Huge Max Supplies?
For example:
• Bitcoin: 21 million
• Litecoin: 84 million
• Shiba Inu: 589 trillion
Let’s break this down.
🪙 What Is Max Supply?
Max supply is the total number of coins that can ever exist. It’s usually hardcoded and fixed — changing it often raises red flags.
🧮 Big Numbers ≠ Big Value
Many think low price + high supply = “cheap” coin.
SHIB might cost $0.00002, but multiply that by 589 trillion and its market cap is still massive.
Compare that to Bitcoin’s smaller supply and higher price. It’s not the price or supply — it’s the market cap that reflects actual value.
💭 Why Use Huge Numbers?
Three main reasons:
– Psychology
People often prefer holding “millions” of tokens rather than a fraction of one — it feels more tangible.
– Tokenomics
Large supplies allow for broad distribution via staking, airdrops, and incentive programs.
– Origin or Branding
Some meme or community tokens chose high numbers as part of their identity or joke origin.
🔥 Token Burns
Projects with large supplies often use token burns — permanently removing coins from circulation to control inflation or boost scarcity.
However, token burning alone doesn’t guarantee long-term price growth or stability.

⚪️ "We tokenize everything" — BlackRock.
🐳 Larry Fink, the head of the world's largest investment company BlackRock, has expressed his thoughts on Ethereum (ETH). He noted that in the future, everything will be tokenized, and this process will likely take place on the Ethereum blockchain.
⛓️ Tokenization refers to the conversion of real-world assets (such as property, artwork, financial instruments, etc.) into digital tokens. This process is made secure, transparent, and easily managed through blockchain technology, and Ethereum may be the best option for implementing this process.
🏦 Fink believes that tokenization could bring about major changes in financial systems. This process will open up new opportunities in the economy and financial systems and further increase the use of Ethereum.

🇹🇭 Thailand plans to allow tourists to pay with cryptocurrency via credit cards.
• The Thai government is developing a special pilot program for tourists. Through this program, tourists will be able to pay with their cryptocurrencies (such as Bitcoin or Ethereum) at local stores via credit cards.
• The Thai Ministry of Finance and the Bank of Thailand are working together to test this system. Here's how it works: When tourists pay with crypto, merchants receive the payment in Thai baht (the local currency), and often they don't even know that the payment is crypto.
• In addition, the Thai government is planning to change the law to merge traditional financial markets and digital asset markets, allowing investors to more easily transfer money between the two markets.

🇺🇸 Trump's tax reform bill has been passed in the US.
🏛️ Today, May 22, the US House of Representatives passed President Trump's tax bill, dubbed "One Big Beautiful Bill," and sent it to the Senate. How will this bill affect the economy? Let's take a quick look!
🔹 What is the law about?
• Makes the 2017 tax reforms permanent.
• Tips, overtime, and social benefits are tax-exempt.
• Tax breaks for small businesses will be increased (e.g., Section 199A deduction from 20% to 23%).
📈 Impact on the economy:
• According to expert estimates, the law could increase US economic growth (GDP) by 0.6% to 5.2%.
• Up to 7.4 million new jobs are expected to be created.
• Workers' annual income could increase by an average of $11,600, and families' by $13,300.
📉 Impact on inflation:
• Tax breaks can increase people's spending and boost demand, which is likely to increase inflation somewhat.
• The national debt is expected to increase by $4 trillion, which could also put pressure on inflation.
• However, if production also increases, inflation can be kept under control.
⚖️ Betting:
Some experts have criticized the law, saying it would benefit the wealthy more and cut social programs for low-income earners. The law is still being debated and voted on in the Senate.
📉 That was the reason for yesterday's one-term dump. Now US bond yields are rising again. I think the law is well thought out, but investors are still panicking.

🤔 The Bitcoin price is currently around $107,300, which is only $2,200 below its all-time high (ATH)!
🧐 But here's an interesting fact: According to Google Trends, searches for "Bitcoin" are at a very low level. Interest was high when the price hit $80,000 in late 2023, but now, even though the price is high, people are not as interested.
❓ What does this mean?
The price has been driven up mainly by institutional investors (large companies). Retail investors are still asleep, and when they wake up, the real pump will begin.

😱 New panic in the market: Moody 's downgrades the US rating from AAA to AA1. Will this affect the markets?
📝 Yesterday, Moody's downgraded the US credit rating from AAA to AA1. The reason is the growing US debt and interest costs. But expert Jim Bianco says this will not seriously affect the markets. Why?
🔹 What happened in 2011? There was a huge uproar in the markets when S&P downgraded the US rating, because the contracts only allowed the use of AAA-rated securities.
🔹 What changed then? The contracts were rewritten: now they are used regardless of the rating of US securities.
🔹 Example of 2023: Markets were barely affected when Fitch downgraded the rating.
🧐 Bianco believes that this downgrade by Moody's is only "technical" and investors will not be forced to sell securities. Therefore, markets should be stable on Monday. However, some users predict that the stock market could fall by 2-3% due to the current economic situation (debt, inflation, weakness in bonds).

🏦 Bank service fee for transferring $1 million is $5,000-10,000 (0.5%-1%).
🤖 Now let's look at the fees of popular blockchains for transferring 1 million USDT with Grok:
1. TRON (TRC-20) — Average 1-2 USDT, sometimes can drop to 0.8 USDT. Approximately 1-2 USDT for 1 million USDT (the commission remains constant even if the amount is large).
2. Binance Smart Chain (BEP-20) — Average 0.8-2 USDT. Approximately 0.8-2 USDT per $1 million USDT. As cheap and fast as TRON, but widely used in the Binance ecosystem.
3. Ethereum (ERC-20) — Gas fees on the Ethereum network depend on network usage. In 2025, they will be in the range of 3-25 USDT on average, but can increase to 50 USDT during peak usage. Approximately 3-25 USDT per 1 million USDT (under normal conditions), or up to 50 USDT during peak usage.
4. TON (The Open Network) — Constant 0.0145 TON (about 0.1-0.2 USDT, depending on the TON price). About 0.1-0.2 USDT per 1 million USDT. One of the cheapest options, especially with Telegram integration.
5. Centralized exchange fees (e.g. Binance) — 0.8 USDT for TRC-20 or BEP-20, 3.2 USDT for ERC-20. When withdrawing or transferring via its own BSC blockchain, the fee is often 0%.
