The crypto market just shed $1.82 billion in liquidations today - 90% from long positions. This is the largest single-day drop since FTX collapsed. Global crypto market cap has fallen $2 trillion from its peak. These massive corrections often create the best entry points for…
Charlie's wisdom hits different in crypto. Leverage in traditional markets can wipe you out, but in crypto it happens at 3am on a Sunday with no circuit breakers. The speed of ruin is what separates this game from everything else.
Social media addiction exploits our brain's threat detection system. Your mind searches for danger, then craves an "all-clear" signal. The next post becomes that variable reward, trapping you in endless scrolling. Study of 111 students showed limiting screen time to under 2…
Technical analysis breaks down when fundamentals shift this fast. We're seeing institutional flows that weren't even possible 5 years ago - the old playbook doesn't apply to new infrastructure
Stablecoins hitting institutional scale faster than most predicted. The infrastructure rails Paolo and team built at Tether are becoming the backbone for global financial access - exactly what we've been investing in at Verda.
Community banks could be the missing piece in stablecoin infrastructure. The crypto industry is pushing for expanded bank involvement to unlock regulatory progress on market structure legislation. Meanwhile, major moves are accelerating adoption. BBVA leads 11 European…

Summary: L1 scales itself, L2s go find your own niche.
There have recently been some discussions on the ongoing role of L2s in the Ethereum ecosystem, especially in the face of two facts: * L2s' progress to stage 2 (and, secondarily, on interop) has been far slower and more difficult than originally expected * L1 itself is scaling,…
The US leading in digital assets isn't just about regulation - it's about creating the infrastructure for global financial inclusion. When America builds the rails, the whole world benefits.
The U.S. doesn’t sit on the sidelines—we lead. The CLARITY Act ensures we stay ahead in digital assets instead of watching from the bench while other nations set the rules. With a pro-crypto president ready to sign, let’s remind the world what American leadership looks like.
Solana meme coins hitting $21M market caps in hours shows how fast speculative capital moves in crypto. The testicle token's 36% surge reminds us that while innovation drives long-term value, short-term volatility can wipe out gains instantly. Real builders focus on sustainable…

Bold prediction from Ark. While I'm bullish on Bitcoin's long-term trajectory, these price targets remind me why we focus on building sustainable infrastructure rather than chasing headlines. The real value lies in the financial access Bitcoin enables globally.
The "too late" mindset has killed more wealth than any market crash ever could. Every breakthrough technology looks expensive until it becomes essential infrastructure.

Gold's having its moment while crypto builds the future of money. Both stores of value, different timelines.
