The European Union is also tightening the screws on crypto. As of 2027, privacy coins such as Monero, Zcash and Dash would be hilariously blacklisted. Banks and exchanges will not be able to mess with them. Self-hosted wallets? Under surveillance. Sounds like a dystopian novel, doesn't it? This isn’t fiction;...
Let’s not kid ourselves here, when we discuss the world of DeFi at large, the story is primarily told from a Western perspective. We hear about Aave, Curve, and a handful of other platforms, mostly built and headquartered in Europe or the US. Is this truly the future for all,...

$170,000 Bitcoin? Seriously? Wild west of crypto or not, that number should make anyone’s jaw hit the floor. Axel Adler Jr., a solidity developer at CryptoQuant, just tossed a gauntlet and the entire crypto world is abuzz. But hold on just a minute. So, is this just hopium or is...
