It has led to a stunning recovery from...

Let’s unpack this further, because all is most definitely not as it should be.Are Whales Rigging The Game?On-chain data...
As of 2025, Bitcoin has continued its up-down rollercoaster ride. All the while, it looks more like a speculative tech stock than a new form of money.

The crypto market, famous for its volatility and fickle nature, is going through a major shift. There are signs investor sentiment has swung from fear to greed, accelerated by major whale accumulation and continued strong inflows into Bitcoin ETFs.

Southeast Asia is buzzing. Gojek drivers now accept crypto, representing the region’s embrace of digital innovation. NFT art is surging in popularity all throughout Indonesia. If we’re being real, much of what gets branded “innovation” just seems far removed. Complicated. Expensive. It’s like being served a three-course dinner when all...
Solana’s price is twirling around $154 on the ostensible strength of a “bullish” forecast. Let’s face it, in the crypto space, what’s a rocket ship today can be a dumpster fire next week. We've all seen it. This recent $500 million timestaking agreement with ATW Partners is a phenomenal win....

Wall Street finally getting it. I've been saying it for years, and now the big boys are starting to see what we early adopters knew all along: crypto isn't going anywhere.

For many crypto enthusiasts, these principles are nearly sacred. With BlockchainShock, our goal is to help...
KYC in crypto? It’s not all it’s cracked up to be and certainly not the silver bullet everybody thinks it is. In Southeast Asia there’s an innovation killer that is both lurking and grossly underestimated. Perhaps worse, it gradually throttles the promise of a nation poised to lead the next...
KYC of course is widely touted in crypto as the cure to fraud and money laundering. The harsh reality is it’s usually not adequate, and at times it actually exacerbates the problem. We're essentially applying a band-aid to a gaping wound and pretending we've solved the problem. Imagine it like...
