Bitcoin now stands at a crossroads. It’s getting a ton of ETF inflows, yet is able to remain consistently above $93,000 mostly from SEO selling pressure, that is no easy feat. On Friday, Bitcoin was around $93,181. That’s a $3,900 decline from its weekly peak of $94,900, though after recently...

The crypto market – praised by many as the world’s soon-to-be dominant financial system – is at the edge of collapse. We're not talking about the usual volatility. This is a structural issue, a widening gaping legal loophole poised to rip apart the whole ecosystem. And honestly, I’m just shocked...
Cryptocurrency is fundamentally built on energy greedy processes, making the climate crisis even more dire around the world. Indeed, last year an expert called its power source the industry’s “legal dark side.” Professor Steven Ferrey argues that this unchecked energy consumption is propelling the United States down a "highway to...

Indeed, in the last week of April, Bitcoin showed its strength by bouncing off that support level to stay above $63,000. Whale accumulation skyrocketed, blowing bullish sentiment and the overall market sentiment overwhelmingly positive. This hoarding has enormously propped up Bitcoin’s price. It has led to a stunning recovery from...
The Bitcoin market's recent rebound is intoxicating. Our Fear & Greed Index is currently signaling extreme greed. Meanwhile, whale wallets are getting FAT, and ETFs of the likes we’ve never imagined before are chomping up BTC like a thirsty desert traveler. Fidelity and ARK Invest are throwing around multi-million dollar...
Okay, let's talk Bitcoin. And let's be real. I'm seeing headlines screaming about a 25% rebound, ETF inflows, and ARK Invest's insane $2.4 million price target by 2030. Sounds amazing, right? 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. Market sentiment, driven by things including tariffs and macroeconomic worries, has been a huge driver of its performance. Indeed, Bitcoin was not ranked...

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. In reality, it’s becoming an important disruptive force that’s changing the whole financial services ecosystem as we know it,...
Forget Wall Street. Forget Silicon Valley. If you’re curious about where the real crypto action is happening, look no further than Southeast Asia. It’s cooler, crazier, kookier, and quirkier than you think! You think Bitcoin hitting $95,000 is exciting? That's old news. We're talking TRUMP tokens and SUI, baby. And...
The debate over Know Your Customer (KYC) in the crypto space is a tangled one. It juxtaposes the need for safety and regulatory adherence against the fundamentals of privacy and decentralization that underlie Web3. 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...
Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations have become a hot button topic in the ever-growing landscape of cryptocurrency. Digital currencies are rapidly growing in acceptance. As that has developed, we have to stop bad actors from doing illegal things, which has led to enhanced monitoring and more stringent compliance requirements. Financial...
