🔥 BTC breaks $21K. To Buy or to Sell?
It's pump szn. BTC is back up as if FTX never took a huge dump on the market.. and then some.
$BTC
Insane move.
Retraced nearly the entire FTX dump and went up almost as fast it went down.

Surprised? Don't be. For the last year, 66% of BTC total supply has stayed on cold storage.
That means everyone's been holding on to their BTC like a leprechaun holding a pot of gold.
If you've been picking up sub 18K BTC, now could be a good time to realize some profits.
🔥 Blackrock CEO praises the idea of the whole world going tokenized
Larry Fink oversees roughly 10% of the world economy... So we're all ears.
“I look forward to the day when we can tokenize stocks and bonds that every stock and every bond we can identify immediately who is the beneficial owner and this is why we’re working on it and... the ability to vote, to democratize every single vote... that’s where we want to take this, and we’re leading that effort.”
In plain english: Tokenization of stocks, as we know it, will create transparency & democracy.
🔥 Logan Paul Offers 1.3M for CryptoZoo Refunds
In a bizarre turn of events, Logan Paul has changed his mind. He won't be suing Coffeezilla anymore. Instead, he's thanking him:
My 3-step plan for CryptoZoo, including a $1.3M rewards program for disappointed players.
Thank you, @coffeebreak_YT

He's offering refunds to unhappy CryptoZoo minters (they minted an egg apparently).
The refund is 0.1 ETH, but people are still unhappy as 0.1 ETH is now worth less than when the eggs were minted.

🔺BitConnect, the $2.4B Ponzi scheme.
BitConnect was a website that promised people money by investing in cryptocurrency.
Yet, it turned out to be the biggest Ponzi scheme that defrauded investors of billions of dollars. 😨
It launched in 2016.
And in 2018, investors began to question the legitimacy of the platform's claims. This caused the price to plummet and brought BTC down with it.
It went even more downhill when Glenn Arcaro (the US-based promoter) got arrested and had $56M worth of crypto seized.
The scheme is believed to have defrauded investors of around $2.4 billion and affected people from over 40 countries.
An end to the story? 🎬
There may be some measure of justice for those affected by the scheme. The Department of Justice announced that 800~ victims would see a part of $17M in restitution.
Low for the amount lost. What do you think? 🤔 |
🧠 Final Thoughts
It's important to remember the following:
There are a lot of scams like this on the internet, and you should be careful where you put your money.
Always research and be skeptical of promises too good to be true.
