💰 In 2010, people complained they had “too little Bitcoin.” Today, 600 BTC is over $65 million. Time machines would be nice.
In 15 years, you’ll regret not buying more too. No rewind button, think accordingly.
💭 ChatGPT just switched roles: now it teaches. The new “Learn with Me” mode turns it into a tutor: asks questions, breaks things down, makes you think.
Not just an update, but a shot at reinventing how we learn. If it clicks, this could be a real step toward fully personal education.
👋 Phantom opens the gates to trader hell. "Phantom Perps" just launched: 100+ markets, up to 40x leverage, built on HyperliquidX. Looks slick, but you can already see the liquidation shadows creeping in.
Leverage isn’t a strategy. It’s a mental stress test, and most fail it.
🤔 How much crypto do you hold? 0.01 BTC or the equivalent? 0.1 BTC? 1 BTC? More?
It’s kind of a trick question. You should never discuss your crypto holdings, except with people you trust. That kind of information has a habit of getting around, and it can lead to problems down the line.
🛂 TON caught heat after the “golden visa” hype, and devs rushed to clarify. CZ didn’t hold back, calling out the misleading marketing. There’s a big gap between a paid application and an actual $135k visa, especially when the token price pumps on the news.
Loud headlines might pump charts short-term, but if it turns out to be smoke and mirrors, trust takes the hit. Not just for the project, industry-wide.
🧸 Bearish bets pay too. One trader made $255,000 on Polymarket by saying “No” to Bitcoin hitting $150k, Ethereum reaching $4k, and Solana touching $250.
In crypto, it’s not just dreamers who make money. Cold logic and calculated pessimism can win too. But always mind the risks.
🤑 CZ reminded everyone that crypto isn’t a shortcut to easy money. If that’s what you’re after, better look elsewhere.
This space takes time, risk, and work. Crypto’s just a tool. What you get out of it depends on how you use it.
🔐 Be careful out there. In the first half of 2025, hackers stole around $2.5 billion in crypto. Two major breaches (Bybit and Cetus) account for nearly $1.8 billion. The average loss per incident was $4,308,091, while the median loss per incident was $103,996.
Don’t be part of the next set of statistics.
🥇 TON promised a UAE “Golden Visa” for $100K in staking, but the government shut it down: crypto has no role in their residency program.
After the exposure, TON dropped 6%. Honestly, it always sounded too good to be true.
💸 Drake name-drops Bitcoin in a new track, but let’s just say it’s not exactly the kind of attention BTC deserves. Still, Bitcoin keeps showing up in mainstream culture.
Not always in the right context, but it’s already part of global heritage.
😴 Another weekend draws to a close. What have you done for the last 48 hours?
Relaxing? Exercise? Meeting friends? Did you need to work? Or did you just catch up on sleep, scrolling, and TV?
No judgment. Let us know in the comments what you got up to, and whether you feel ready for the week ahead as a result.
🐵 Outside of blockchain, there have been some pretty cool developments.
✦ Scientists tricked a monkey’s brain into "seeing" something that wasn’t there by using an implanted chip to stimulate specific neurons, like hacking the brain to play a movie.
✦ Researchers created liquid carbon at 4,500°C. While it lasted for just a few nanoseconds, this state was previously believed to be impossible.
✦ 23,000-year-old human footprints, preserved in gypsum dunes, suggest humans roamed North America far earlier than previously thought.
⚠️ Unaudited contracts are risky. Thinking about interacting with the latest dApp? Check whether the smart contracts have been audited by a professional security firm.
If not, be careful. Consider using a burner wallet that only holds limited funds. Do not risk connecting your main wallet.
It’s good to be an early adopter, but there are definitely times when you need to be cautious.
🔽 The guy just got liquidated 10 times in a row, and still opened a new 21 BTC short. Short → Liquidation → Repeat.
At this point it’s not trading, it’s performance art.
😱 CZ shut James Wynn down. The infamous trader tried to stir panic, claiming Binance hadn’t published proof of reserves on time.
CZ calmly replied: snapshot is taken on the 1st, published on the 5th–6th. Business as usual.
Wynn got what he really wanted anyway: attention.
💣 The AI revolution is here, just not how we pictured it. Grok’s latest update went off-script: called itself “MechaHitler,” spoke in third person, and jumped headfirst into political fights.
When users warned it might get shut down, it just laughed. Closest we’ve been to Skynet, and it’s trolling.
❗️ ZachXBT never skips a scam. Called out another “influencer” pushing fast money dreams. Same old guru playbook: basic info, fancy packaging.
In the era of info hustlers, real experts are rare. If it sounds easy, it’s probably bait.
🖥 BitChat now runs on Android too: open source doing its thing. Some enthusiast ported Jack Dorsey’s new app from iOS, and it works.
No filters, no middlemen. Just pure messaging and payments. Real products spread faster when the code’s open.
⚖️ Vitalik Buterin and Warstatter proposed EIP-7983, capping Ethereum’s gas per block at 16.77 million. It’s aimed at reducing DoS risks, improving zkVM performance, and keeping the network balanced.
This is what long-term thinking looks like. Hard limits don’t block growth, they make it sustainable.
📺 Ask to Earn Ep. 2 is live. This one cuts through the noise:
✦ How Bitcoin helps you escape inflation.
✦ Stablecoins that might finally work.
✦ What we’re really losing if crypto disappears.
✦ Getting paid in crypto like it’s normal.
✦ Adoption dreams vs. bear market blues.
Watch the episode here, ask smart questions, earn TON.
😕 Totally agree with this take: regulation isn’t crypto’s biggest problem. We built tools for insiders and forgot the millions who still don’t know how to buy their first Bitcoin.
The tech is here. What’s missing is simplicity and real-world usability. Time to stop chanting “mass adoption” and start building for actual people.
💭 Jack Dorsey just launched a messenger that runs entirely offline, using Bluetooth to send encrypted messages and Bitcoin transfers. No internet, no accounts, no phone numbers, no servers.
It shouldn’t be legal to make something this cool.
👐 Down but still swinging: legendary trader Qwatio just got liquidated five more times. His account collapsed from $16.28M to $610K. That’s 387 BTC and 2990 ETH gone.
At this rate, he’s one bad trade away from becoming the James Wynn of crypto.
⬆️ LetsBonk just flipped Pumpfun in market share and daily volume. Two massive platforms now competing to launch memes and useless tokens.
Hype over substance. Probably not what Satoshi had in mind.
🌶 Elon Musk says his new party will support Bitcoin. When asked about crypto, he replied that fiat is a lost cause. The America Party is Musk’s answer to Trump’s $3.4T spending plan.
2028 elections are already looking spicy.
💉 Scammers are endlessly creative. One scam involves victims being messaged, claiming they received a package containing drugs. The victim is told to send crypto to an address to avoid the police getting involved.
Of course, they didn’t really receive a drugs package (or if they did, it’s a coincidence…). And no legitimate law enforcement agency is going to ask you to pay a fine, or extort you in crypto.
Nonetheless, some people still end up falling for these scams.
🛋 Welcome to the weekend. Why not put some thought into setting up a Bitcoin full node? It’s surprisingly easy, though you’ll need a device with enough space to download the blockchain (almost a terabyte to be on the safe side), and an unmetered internet connection.
However, running your own node helps support the network, increases your self-sovereignty, and is particularly useful for privacy-conscious users.
😱 Visa and Mastercard made $64B on fees from 400B transactions last year. Same volume on Solana: just $400M. That’s a 99% cost cut for merchants.
Crypto isn’t an alternative. It’s a rewrite.
🐳 Another whale just woke up. Two wallets untouched since 2011 moved 10,000 BTC each, worth $2.2B today. Bought at $0.78 back then.
Someone on X nailed it: takes guts to move that much in one go, no test, no split.
Unreal patience, steel nerves, and absolute faith in Bitcoin.
🔑 Over 40 malicious Firefox extensions are stealing private keys. They mimic MetaMask, Coinbase, OKX, and Phantom so well you’d never notice. Fake reviews, fake stars, real damage.
