🤔 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.

💳 January vs. March: the evolution of a trader's portfolio. Where would we be without memes, especially in these turbulent times? The market reminds us that without knowledge, it’s like driving without a seatbelt on sharp turns.

Knowledge prevents emotional decisions, and emotions are a trader's enemy. Let's learn, analyze, and not let chaos break us. Everything is cyclical.

🔍 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.

🐄 Bull market over? CryptoQuant CEO Ki Yong Joo says the next 6-12 months could be bearish or sideways. But hey, markets are like rollercoasters — after the drop, there’s always an uphill.

💸 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.

💪18 months vs. 1 minute. Checking the U.S. gold reserves will take 1.5 years, 20 staff, 18 scanners, 2 drilling machines, and 18 carts.

Now, compare that: auditing all the Bitcoin in the world takes less than a minute and is available to anyone. No complex tools, no bureaucracy, no need to trust anyone. In the digital age, value is defined not just by rarity, but by the accessibility of information about it.

💰 Lazarus Group is back at it. OKX announced a temporary pause of its DEX aggregator after discovering coordinated efforts by the notorious hacker group to exploit its DeFi services.

Blockchain offers freedom, but without constant security upgrades, that freedom becomes a vulnerability. Technology evolves, but so do the threats. Protection needs to stay one step ahead.

👿 Lost patience? A wallet that had been dormant for 3 years sold 1014.67 $ETH for $1.92M, making just $126K in profit. The average purchase price was $1771, meaning they could have cashed out for +$2.3M at the peak.

In crypto, just like in life, it’s hard to know when a solid HODL turns into missed opportunities.

And sleep! Far from being wasted time, sleep is an amazing productivity hack. You’ll feel better, be healthier, and be able to concentrate more.

Sleep is largely about good habits and routines, so don’t expect to be able to catch up with the odd weekend lie-in if you’re exhausted. Make it a discipline.

👩‍💻 Anyone can be a dev now. Sure, you’ll still need some years of practice to be ultra-top tier, but building simple apps and proof-of-concept software has become easy.

No-code and low-code tools, plus AI code generation for those who know a little bit, have revolutionized the field. Even those with a little basic coding knowledge can get a massive head start.

And these tools are only going to keep getting better. Coding is always going to be important, but prompt engineering is going to be a more and more sought-after skill. Don’t sleep on it!

😮 Memecoins have dropped off a cliff. At the start of December last year the market was worth $118 billion in total. Now, it’s around $50 billion.

Have we seen the end of meme coins? I doubt it.

But these things ebb and flow, and right now, the community is tired of meme coins. They’ve been rugged too many times.

🤖 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.

💰 One trader turned $232 into $1.1 million with $mubarak, a return of x4860. He bought 10.5 million $mubarak for 0.4 $BNB ($232), sold part for 576 $BNB ($363.5k), and stashed 5.16 million $mubarak ($764k) across 3 wallets.

⚠️ Scam alert: fraudsters are sending emails claiming to be from crypto exchanges (Gemini, Coinbase, and possibly others) offering to create a wallet with a pre-generated SEED phrase. It's a trap! The scammers control these wallets and will steal your funds immediately.

Keep this in mind:

✦ Never use a SEED phrase generated by someone else.
✦ Keep your phrase secret and offline.
✦ Trust only official exchange websites.

Stay aware, guys.

One trader aimed for a quick profit and jumped in with $755K, only to lose $455K, realizing just in time that he was about to lose everything. The market shows no mercy.

🇧🇷 Brazil is stepping into the crypto future. Workers can now receive up to 50% of their salary in Bitcoin and crypto. It’s not just convenience, it’s a way to protect income from inflation and bet on the digital economy.

🐳 The whale hunt failed... A big trader shorted $BTC with 40x leverage, and a team tried to bring him down. They even got $BTC above $84,690 in an hour. But the whale added $5M to avoid getting liquidated and kept pushing. In the end, he took profits and went long on BTC.

Crypto drama at its best. Whale 1, traders 0. Bring on more wild stories!
