🏛 The White House is considering using gold reserves to buy Bitcoin. What once seemed absurd is now a reality. Digital gold is becoming a key pillar of the global economy, where trust in networks is overtaking trust in traditional assets.

When governments view Bitcoin as a strategic reserve, it's not just bold. It's a shift to a new world order.

🧑‍💻 There’s a shortage of small, indie projects in the crypto space right now. It’s understandable why: as the sector matures, and investors become more risk-aware, people are betting on bigger teams to deliver.

But the strength of crypto was always that it was built from the grassroots. In previous cycles we had individual developers and small teams launching incredibly innovative projects.

Are they still around?

😅 Last week the US overturned the DeFi Brokers rule. Phew!

This law would have forced non-custodial platforms like DEXes to KYC users, creating an impossible burden for developers. It went against the crypto ethos, essentially replicating Web2 in Web3 and stifling innovation.

🏄‍♂️ We're just at the beginning... River reminds us: Bitcoin, with a market cap of $1.7 trillion, makes up only 1.3% of the global financial market. It’s a tiny share, but it’s already changing the game.

You haven't missed the Bitcoin wave. We're at the dawn of a new financial era where decentralization and capital freedom are becoming the norm.

🔍 Blockchain detective ZachXBT has revealed the identity of the whale who opens shorts and longs worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Many have been tracking his activity on Hyperliquid and GMX recently. The trader is William Parker, involved in shady activities like phishing and stealing from casinos. Last year, he was arrested for stealing $1 million from two casinos.

Previously known as Alister Pakover, he changed his name after making headlines in the early 2010s over fraud accusations. Pakover earned $20 million from high-leverage trades.

🧀 The only free cheese is in a mousetrap. Info thieves AMOS and Lumma are targeting crypto users on Mac and Windows via Reddit. Their goal: your wallets and personal data.

One popular lure is "free" access to TradingView. While the platform offers powerful market analysis tools, scammers are offering hacked versions infected with malware.

How to protect yourself?

✦ Download software only from official sites.
✦ Don't trust "freebies" online.
✦ Use antivirus software and cold wallets.

🤔 Ripple vs. SEC: final or new round? The CEO of Ripple called it a "historic victory," but the battle isn’t over — the company is filing a counterclaim.

The price of justice? Years of lawsuits and huge damage, but also a critical precedent for crypto. Ripple believes it's worth it, and this choice could shape the market's future.

🔍 Blockchain detective ZachXBT on system flaws: "Long hours spent helping freeze funds after the Bybit hack opened my eyes..."

The crypto sleuth is frustrated by how exploits and hacks have become industry norms. Decentralized protocols avoid responsibility, and centralized exchanges react too slowly as millions vanish in minutes. KYT and KYC are ineffective, easily bypassed, or create false security.

The recent hack and $1.4 billion laundering prove the system is broken. The question is whether we can fix it ourselves or if the government will step in, potentially harming the entire industry.

😰 Three thefts in just a couple of days. Victims lost a total of around $250,000 by copying the wrong address from a compromised transaction history.

How does it happen?

✦ The scammer sends a fake transaction with a similar address.
✦ The fake address shows up in your history.
✦ You copy the address from your history, thinking it’s real.
✦ Instead, the funds go to the scammer.

❗️Always double-check the addresses you're sending funds to and NEVER copy addresses from transaction history. It’s safer to use a wallet with whitelist or bookmark support.

💰 The "Hyperliquid whale with 50x leverage" is actually a cybercriminal using stolen funds for high-leverage trading, says blockchain investigator ZachXBT. He also confirmed no link to the Lazarus Group.

However, ZachXBT isn't rushing to expose more, saying "publishing investigations on X/Twitter is no longer as enjoyable." It would be a shame if we no longer see his reveals.

💸 According to RIVER, 80 publicly traded companies have now included Bitcoin in their strategy and hold it on their official treasury balances. Two years ago, there were only 33.

Bitcoin is shifting from a fringe curiosity to a standard financial asset. Companies are now viewing it as a way to safeguard their capital, rather than just a bet on price fluctuations.

💵 Fiat is a poor store of value. Check out this site, which shows how the dollar has lost around 85% of its value since 1971. While currencies like the dollar and euro seem stable, they come at the cost of long-term value erosion.

Fortunately, DeFi protocols let you earn returns on dollar-pegged stablecoins, helping counter inflation losses.

⬇️ Ethereum holders' frustration is growing as the price drops. Miners are demanding a return to Proof-of-Work, but the Ethereum Foundation will never go back, as PoS is more than just an algorithm to them. It's a philosophy.

The history of crypto is about evolution, not a step backward. Progress demands sacrifices, and only time will tell if the current decisions prove to be right.

🐻 Well-known trader Plan B believes the bear market hasn’t arrived yet because the bull market hasn’t even started. He calls BTC's rise from $15,000 to its latest ATH "an early bull market." Another phase—distribution—is needed before the bear market.

Experts suggest Bitcoin will soon break its typical 4-year cycle of rise and fall, shifting to a step-by-step model. There's no consensus, so it’s best to rely on your own research. The market is changing, and traders need to adapt to new rules.

🪙 Coinbase has been talking about tokenizing their stock, COIN, on Base. It makes perfect sense to have your own stock trading on your own platform.

Once one company paves the way, it’s fair to assume that many more will come quickly.

Those companies will have access to new liquidity from the crypto markets – likely seeing a bump in their valuations and what they can do simply by tokenizing.

💶The digital euro will launch in October 2025, giving the ECB full control over every digital wallet.

Here’s the paradox: blockchain could make public finances transparent, letting citizens see how their taxes are spent, help those in need, and return control to the people. Instead, authorities are using the technology for total control, not openness.

🤖 AI is great, and one of the coolest things about it is the way that it enables experimentation. That includes building new applications quickly – but also some more frivolous use cases.

For example, this guy hooked up an AI to his Big Mouth Billy Bass. Seems kind of silly, maybe (though fun), but this kind of thing has countless real-world applications. Don’t be scared to play around.

Keep this in mind:

✦ Never use a SEED phrase generated by someone else.
✦ Keep your phrase secret and offline.
