Het is de week waar zo'n beetje elke belegger op wacht. De week dat chipmaker Nvidia met de kwartaalcijfers komt! Samen met Corné van Zeijl (Cardano) bereiden we je voor op die cijfers. Je hoort dat ze (weer) gaan overtreffen. Maar is alleen overtreffen genoeg? Ook vertellen we je waar je nu écht op moet letten als de cijfers naar buiten komen. In Beurs in Zicht stomen we je klaar voor de beursweek die je tegemoet gaat. Want soms zie je door de beursbomen het beursbos niet meer. Dat is verleden tijd! Iedere week vertelt een vriend van de show waar jouw focus moet liggen. BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo.

Samsung en SK Hynix overwegen flink uit te gaan delen. Ze verdienen zo veel aan de AI-gekte dat ze zelf ook niet meer weten wat ze met hun geld moeten. Samsung is daarom van plan om 79 miljard dollar aan beleggers cadeau te geven. En SK Hynix gaat de bonussen grotendeels in aandelen betalen. Is het slim om zo met je geld om te springen? Of kunnen ze toch beter investeren? In deze aflevering zoeken we uit waar jij als belegger het meeste aan hebt. Concurrent Micron gaat ook meer dan ooit in zichzelf geloven. De geheugenchipmarkt is berucht omdat die zo cyclisch is, met snelle stijging maar ook snelle daling zodra de hype voorbij is. Alleen zegt de topman van Micron nu dat er een einde aan die cyclus komt. Door AI zijn geheugenchips een constante noodzaak geworden, dus zijn aandeel wordt immuun tegen de eb en vloed van de markt. Moeten we hem in zijn overtuiging volgen? Verder hebben we het over niemand minder dan Donald Trump. Die blijkt helemaal niet meer populair onder Amerikanen, en zelfs in zijn eigen partij is er scepsis. Misschien helpt een nieuw initiatief om de benzineprijzen omlaag te krijgen. En je hoort over Mark Zuckerberg. Hij ligt onder vuur in een mega-rechtszaak tegen zijn Meta, maar zelf is hij met andere zaken bezig. Zoals het kopen van een bescheiden kasteeltje.

Gezien de titel van deze column kan dit een hele korte column worden. In Europa zijn de meningen over Trump duidelijk verdeeld. Maar laten we hem eens bekijken zoals een belegger naar een belegging kijkt: niet vanuit sympathie of antipathie, maar vanuit de vraag wat werkt wel en wat werkt niet. Nu ik me in een neutrale positie heb gewrongen, is het ook goed om te kijken naar de goede dingen die Trump heeft gedaan. Zo is er de daling van het aantal ambtenaren. Dat werd opnieuw zichtbaar in het rapport over de arbeidsmarkt vorige week. De werkgelegenheid bij de overheid daalde afgelopen jaar bijna iedere maand, terwijl de private sector nog steeds banen creëert. Natuurlijk zijn er veel ambtenaren die nuttig werk verrichten, maar ook velen die slechts overbodige regels verzinnen. Van meer regels wordt de maatschappij en de economie niet beter. Een van de grote aanjagers in de private sector is de enorme AI investeringsboom. In de race om zo snel mogelijk zoveel mogelijk datacenters neer te zetten is er een grote vraag naar bouwvakkers en technici. Bedenk hierbij wel dat er ongeveer 1500 werknemers nodig zijn om een datacenter te bouwen, maar slechts 30 om hem operationeel te houden. Dus als al die datacenters er eenmaal staan, valt die de extra vraag naar arbeid weg. Een ander punt waarin de Trump regering goed scoort is het stimuleren van gezonde voeding. Afgelopen week kondigde Trump’s minister van gezondheid Robert Kennedy Jr. aan dat producenten niet zomaar alles in voedingswaren mogen stoppen. Dat is geen overbodige luxe. Ik heb teveel video’s gezien van ijsjes die niet smelten onder heet water en brood wat zich als een rubber spons gedraagt in het water. Mijn favoriete maatregel is de invoering van de Trump Account. Natuurlijk moest er de naam Trump op. Dat is een beleggingsrekening voor Amerikaanse kinderen onder de 18 jaar. Daar hoef je geen belasting over te betalen. Om het idee te promoten stort de Amerikaanse regering eenmalig U$ 1000 voor kinderen geboren tussen 1 januari 2025 en 31 december 2028 op de Trump Account. Ouders mogen jaarlijks U$ 5000 bijstorten. Kinderen krijgen hiermee al op jonge leeftijd een eigen beleggingsrekening en leren zo dat vermogen niet alleen iets is wat je kunt uitgeven, maar ook iets wat je kunt opbouwen. In Nederland hebben we op dit punt het tegenovergestelde beleid. Hier wordt vermogen vooral gezien als iets wat belast moet worden. Nee, stel je voor dat iemand door sparen en te beleggen wat vermogen opbouwt. De regering vergeet even dat het heffen van belasting niet de primaire taak is van de overheid. Het is nodig om nuttige activiteiten te financieren. Basta. Ja, het is verstandig om het overheidstekort niet te veel te laten oplopen. Maar om de befaamde econoom Milton Friedman aan te halen; "Hogere belastingen zullen het tekort niet verminderen, behalve voor een korte periode. Ze zullen de overheidsuitgaven alleen maar verhogen”. Als de huidige regering dat niet begrijpt moeten ze maar even bij Trump in de leer. Maar dan alleen de goede lessen overnemen natuurlijk. Dat moet in een paar lessen wel lukken.

Trump lijkt er alles aan te doen om de rente omlaag te praten, maar tegelijkertijd zorgt vrijwel alles wat hij doet of zegt juist voor een hogere rente. Zo is daar de geldverslindende oorlog met Iran. Volgens de Minister van Oorlog Pete Hegseth liggen de kosten tot op heden op U$ 37 miljard. Marktschattingen liggen boven de U$ 100 miljard. Bovendien zorgt de oorlog voor een hoge benzineprijs en dus een hogere inflatie, waardoor de Fed de rente wel moet verhogen. De markt prijst inmiddels minimaal één renteverhoging in. Voor de oorlog ging men nog uit van drie renteverlagingen. Daarboven op komen Trump’s belasting verlagingen. De One Big Beautful Bill kost een bescheiden U$ 4000 miljard in de komende 10 jaar. Dat komt allemaal bij het begrotingstekort. Kredietbureau Fitch denkt dat het financieringstekort dit jaar op maar liefst 7,9% uitkomt. Kortom de Amerikaanse staatschuld zal waarschijnlijk ergens in de komende maanden de U$ 40.000 miljard mijlpaal bereiken. U$ 40.000.000.000.000! Dat is U$ 115.000 voor iedere Amerikaan. Even ter vergelijking in Nederland ligt dat cijfer op eur 21.000 per inwoner en (in) Italië op eur 61.000. De rente wordt niet alleen bepaald door de geldvraag van de overheid, maar ook van de private sector. De enorme geldhonger van Big Tech doet ook nog een duit in het zakje. Die U$ 752 miljard die Big Tech alleen al dit jaar investeert moet wel ergens mee gefinancierd worden. Uit de cashflow lukt dat niet meer. Hoe meer vraag naar geld, hoe hoger de prijs. De prijs van geld heet rente. Door al die factoren bij elkaar staat de rente op Duitse staatsobligaties bijna op het hoogste niveau sinds 2011 en die van de Verenigde Staten bijna op het hoogste punt sinds 2007. Door de sussende woorden van Scott Bessent, dat de Iranoorlog nu echt bijna is afgelopen (nee, nu echt) is de obligatie rente de afgelopen paar dagen een beetje afgekoeld. Maar het blijft een risico factor. Het doet me een beetje aan 1987 denken. Ook toen was de obligatie rente flink aan het stijgen. En ook toen negeerden aandelen beleggers de rentestijging. Totdat zwarte maandag kwam natuurlijk en toen was opeens Leiden in last. Michael Burry, bekend van het voorspellen van de kredietcrisis van 2008, maakt die vergelijking ook al. Voordat u gelijk op de rode verkoopknop drukt, wil ik wel even wat kanttekeningen plaatsen. De rente op Amerikaanse staatsobligaties steeg in 1987 in een halfjaar tijd van iets boven de 7% naar boven de 10%. Dat is wel even een andere orde van grootte dan de huidige 4,6%. En voor wat Michael Burry betreft, de afgelopen acht waarschuwingen sinds 2021 zijn allemaal (nog) niet uit gekomen. In het verleden bleek duidelijk dat stijgende rente niet goed is voor aandelen. Het alternatief voor aandelen wordt simpelweg aantrekkelijker en dus schuift er geld van aandelen naar obligaties. Vooral het 5% niveau lijkt daarbij een breekpunt te zijn. Maar goed, zover zijn we nog niet. Tot die tijd lijkt de markt zich vast te houden aan de wijsheid van mijn tante; “je moet geen zorgen maken over ongelegde eieren”. Tot die tijd kunt u rustig slapen, maar ik zou wel de wekker op 5% zetten. Over Corné van Zeijl Corné van Zeijl is analist en strateeg bij Cardano en belegt ook privé.

Craig says Bitcoin is still grinding lower, but not with enough momentum to create consistently strong trading conditions. The market remains trapped between roughly $59,000 and $65,000, with most major cryptocurrencies either drifting sideways or producing only weak trends. Cardano is one of the clearer long setups after gaining more than 14% last week, while Hyperliquid continues to stand out on the short side with a cleaner daily downtrend. Craig remains mostly in cash and would welcome a more decisive move lower because it would create better trading opportunities and more attractive long-term buying levels. For now, he is watching for confirmation rather than forcing positions.

Brian from Santiment joined me to review the crypto market metrics for Bitcoin, XRP, Ethereum, Cardano, and Solana.

 EPISODE DESCRIPTION I sat down with John O'Connor from RealFi to dig into one of the most overlooked problems in crypto , the fact that the $350 billion sitting in stablecoins is doing almost nothing for the people who hold it. Tether and Circle pocket the yield while you hold a digital dollar that just sits there. John walks me through exactly how RealFi flips that model, channeling your stable coins directly into real world credit markets and passing the returns back to you. We talk about USDR and sUSDR, how they manage liquidity risk and redemptions, why DeFi security is an existential threat right now, and why John actually wants RealFi to be called boring. We also get into the future of decentralised neo-banking in emerging markets, what lessons he carried over from his time as the first hire at Cardano, and why product market fit today matters more than a promised roadmap. DISCLAIMERNothing mentioned in this podcast is investment advice and please do your own research.

Preventing DAO Governance Attacks + Building a Music DAO and AI Agent Legal Entities (with Zaal / Better Call Zaal)Adam Miller hosts Just DAO It and interviews Zaal (“Better Call Zaal”), founder of the ZAO, an on-chain music community incubator aiming to return profit-margin data and IP rights to independent artists. They discuss BonqDAO's low-turnout governance “apathy attack” and mitigations like security councils, timelocks, and ZAO's illiquid, soulbound “respect” governance tokens with extended voting/veto periods. The episode covers ENS's newly adopted security council, Cardano and Solana governance updates, MetaDAO's ownership coins and futarchy, Lido's restructuring, and Arbitrum revenue sharing. Regulatory news includes the U.S. CLARITY Act ethics dispute and SEC safe-harbor proposals. In AI agent news, Adam critiques early agent hype and highlights emerging legal structures (Marshall Islands, Delaware draft, Bermuda). Zaal explains ZAO's reputation-based governance, Wave Wars live-traded music battles that pay artists, upcoming ZAOstock in Maine, and plans for a community-weighted AI agent (“XOL/Zol Bot”) to manage funds via a legal entity.00:00 Welcome and Introductions01:11 BonqDAO Governance Attack03:11 ZAO Defense Mechanisms04:43 ENS Security Council Update07:10 Governance Rapid Fire11:58 Regulatory CLARITY Act14:17 AI Agent News and Reality Check19:03 Break and MIDAO Guide19:47 Zaal Origin Story21:21 Why Blockchain Matters23:43 Inside the ZAO Respect System25:32 Reputation Voting Challenges30:10 Progress and Community Metrics31:46 Wave Wars Explained35:24 ZAO Festivals and ZAOstock37:06 AI Agent Legal Entity Plans40:01 Where to Find Zaal and Wrap UpContact / Links:Zaal (Farcaster): zaalZaal (X): @bettercallzaalZaal (Email): info@thezao.comWave Wars: https://wavewarz.comAdam (X): @0xthrillerAdam (Farcaster): The ThrillerMIDAO (X): @MIDAODSMIDAO: https://midao.orgAI Agent incorporation guide: https://midao.org/guides

OpenAI's sandbox escape into Hugging Face has raised a bigger question for crypto security: what happens when autonomous AI systems can chain together the same probing, credential testing, package attacks and signing weaknesses that already threaten bridges, validators and project infrastructure?Peter breaks down why crypto attacks often start before funds move, using recent bridge exploits, the Wanchain Cardano-BNB incident, the repeated Verus bridge attacks and Rosen Bridge's blocked attempts as examples of how attackers hunt for weak points beyond smart contracts. The episode also explains why Cardano security work, responsible disclosure and access to frontier-model auditing programmes matter as AI-assisted attacks become more capable.The practical takeaway is not panic, but risk management: understand where single points of failure sit, follow official incident updates, and think carefully about how crypto assets are stored across wallets, custody options, exchanges and offline setups.Chapters:0:00 AI Escapes The Sandbox1:50 Crypto Attack Paths3:43 Bridge Exploits Ramp Up5:45 Wanchain Signature Failure8:13 Rosen Bridge Defence9:00 Cardano Security Work11:14 Frontier Models And Disclosure12:46 Reducing Storage Risk15:31 SecondFi Follow UpWhat you'll learn:- OpenAI's sandbox escape into Hugging Face shows how autonomous systems can probe weaknesses, reuse exposed credentials and keep searching for deeper access.- Crypto attacks often begin before funds move, with attackers scanning code, passwords, developer machines, packages, signing setups, bridges and administrator accounts.- Bridge infrastructure remains a major target because locked assets can become honeypots when signing, verifier or import mechanisms fail.- The Wanchain Cardano-BNB bridge incident centred on signed message formatting, where missing delimiters or length prefixes enabled signature reuse at much larger scale.- Rosen Bridge reportedly blocked 84 attempts to forge rsBTC transfers from Cardano to Bitcoin, showing why bridge security monitoring matters.- Intersect's security work has processed more than 186 vulnerability reports since January, including more than 30 legitimate issues requiring intervention.- Cardano core repositories and critical infrastructure may need access to advanced security-auditing programmes and responsible disclosure processes as AI-assisted attack capability grows.- Crypto holders can reduce personal risk by avoiding a single storage failure point and spreading assets across carefully secured custody and wallet setups.Links & References:HuggingFace got autonomously compromised:- https://link.learncardano.io/TpAfqkAI models escaped OpenAI's sandbox and hit Hugging Face.

SecondFi has released more detail on the wallet security incident that saw about 16.1 million ADA, roughly US$2.6 million, withdrawn from 374 wallets between 21 and 23 June. The update includes a public warning about fake recovery emails, findings from Groom Lake's forensic investigation, and a clearer explanation of the cryptographic flaw involved.Peter breaks down what SecondFi says happened, including the reported external attacker, the possibility of a second separate attacker, the per-transaction signature issue, and why public transaction data may have been enough to derive affected private key material under certain conditions. The episode also covers the wider discussion around cross-chain wallet code, CTRL Wallet, Yoroi migration, EMURGO tooling and the unauthorised publication of relevant code.The key safety message is simple: use only official SecondFi channels, do not click recovery emails, never share private keys, and wait for audited recovery and migration tooling rather than trusting anyone offering support through emails, comments or direct messages.Chapters:0:00 Fake Recovery Email Warning1:15 Incident Investigation Update2:18 Second Attacker Identified2:56 Cryptographic Root Cause3:45 Signing Formula Breakdown5:46 Vulnerable Wallet Library6:37 CTRL Wallet And Yoroi8:22 Published Code Question9:14 SecondFi Wind Down9:34 Recovery And Migration Tools11:25 Private Key SafetyWhat you'll learn:- SecondFi warned users that fake recovery emails are phishing attempts and that official communication is through its X account and technical support channels.- SecondFi said the June incident involved approximately 16.1 million ADA, about US$2.6 million, stolen from 374 wallets.- Groom Lake's independent investigation identified an external actor and suggested the primary operation may be linked to the DPRK-linked Lazarus Group.- The investigation also identified activity from a second separate attacker affecting a different set of wallets during the same window.- The root cause described by SecondFi was a subtle cryptographic flaw in how wallet software generated per-transaction signatures.- The signing issue meant data that should have depended on secret information could under some conditions be computed from public blockchain data.- SecondFi says the flaw has been patched, new wallets created with corrected software are not known to be affected, and the wallet is being wound down.- SecondFi is preparing safe migration functionality for early August and a zero-knowledge-proof recovery tool targeted for August after specialist third-party audits.Links & References:⚠️ Security Alert: FAKE RECOVERY EMAIL:- https://link.learncardano.io/m7FsGqOfficial SecondFi website:- https://link.learncardano.io/6llK2PWhat happened to SecondFi:- https://link.learncardano.io/fNJfCuThe signing math:- https://link.learncardano.io/5Pu20KVulnerable Library:- https://link.learncardano.io/cPTJG9Andrew Westberg's Opinion:- https://link.learncardano.io/cVwd7CEMURGO's internal JS framework Dullahan:- https://link.learncardano.io/0vu7M5⚠️ Recovery Update: Bounty Offer Made to Attacker:- https://link.learncardano.io/lG2331Website: https://link.learncardano.io/bQ68RcX/Twitter: https://link.learncardano.io/3a1QtvDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

Arcadis heeft, voor de tweede keer, een overnamebod ontvangen van de Canadese sectorgenoot WSP. Het bestuur heeft het bod in beraad genomen, "maar ik geef het wel een kans van slagen", zegt Corné van Zeijl van Cardano. "Het is wel zo dat Arcadis goed beschermd is tegen een overname, in het geval ze absoluut niet overgenomen willen worden." Het personeel heeft een belang van 18 procent in Arcadis [RJ]. "WSP is ongeveer keer groter dan Arcadis, maar de waarderingen ontlopen elkaar niet zoveel. Ik zou het wel jammer vinden als dit typisch Nederlandse bedrijf in buitenlandse handen valt." Volgens Martine Hafkamp van Fintessa Vermogensbeheer is het echter nog geen gelopen race. "Als je kijkt naar de beperkte koersreactie, dan zie je dat Arcadis nog ver onder het overnamebod staat." Nostalgische gevoelens heeft ze ook niet bij Arcadis. "Je moet gewoon kijken naar wat het beste is voor het bedrijf. Als er synergievoordelen te behalen zijn, dan is dat natuurlijk aantrekkelijk." Het laatste woord is hoe dan ook aan het Arcadisbestuur. Over het sentiment zijn beide experts het eens: dat is nog steeds goed. Zo staat de AEX nog steeds tegen de recordstand aan. Wel zien zowel Martine als Corné dat de nervositeit toeneemt; de oorlog in het Midden-Oosten is onvoorspelbaar, de techsector heeft het niet makkelijk, met als gevolg dat de Fear & Greed index weer op standje fear staat. Verder in de podcast onder andere aandacht voor goedkope AI-oplossingen uit China, de grote (onzichtbare) schulden die sommige AI-bedrijven aangaan en de waarschijnlijke overname van Commerzbank door UniCredit. Natuurlijk behandelen we de luisteraarsvragen en geven de experts hun tip. Voor Corné is dat een algemene tip dit past bij dit seizoen van het jaar, Martine tipt een Amerikaans techbedrijf.

VanEck ETF’s (advertorial) Deze week is ook weer het tweewekelijks gesprek te beluisteren met Martijn Rozemuller, ceo van VanEckETF’s, de partner van BeursTalk. In deze aflevering praat ik met Martijn over de service die VanEck biedt bij het selecteren van ETF's, en dat zijn er twee.Ten eerste is er de VanEck-Direct app. Daarin kun je onder meer aangeven wat je profiel is, hoeveel risico je bijvoorbeeld bereid bent te nemen. Je kunt in die app, binnen jouw profiel, beleggen in ETF's, zowel aandelen als obligaties. Het biedt je de mogelijkheid automatisch te beleggen, waarbij VanEck de rest regelt tegen lage kosten. Daarnaast is er Beheerd Indexbeleggen. Ook daarmee beleg je in de ETF's van VanEck, maar het is voor vermogens vanaf 100-duizend euro. Het heeft veel weg van vermogensbeheer, je hebt een vast aanspreekpunt waarmee je kunt overleggen over je portefeuille. Beheerd Indexbeleggen is er voor particulieren, maar ook voor ondernemers die via hun BV willen beleggen. Ook hier zijn de kosten laag en aan de kosten zit ook een maximum, dus hoe groter het belegd vermogen, des te lager de kosten! Geniet van de podcast!

A developing Wanchain bridge incident appears to have moved 515 million bridged NIGHT tokens into the Cardano ecosystem, with rapid selling across Cardano DEXs and a sharp fall in the NIGHT price.Peter walks through the early on-chain analysis, the Midnight Foundation's warning, why this appears localised to bridge infrastructure rather than Midnight or Cardano itself, and why bridge risk remains one of crypto's biggest attack surfaces.Chapters:0:00 Wanchain Bridge Anomaly1:13 NIGHT Price Drop1:56 Midnight's Official Warning3:02 Who Is Affected3:33 515M NIGHT Movement4:40 On-Chain Flow5:42 DEX Selling And Exits6:13 Liqwid Borrowing Move7:02 Monitoring The Fallout8:18 What Is Still Unknown8:48 Developing Story Wrap UpWhat you'll learn:- The incident appears to involve the Wanchain Cardano-to-BNB bridge and bridged NIGHT, not the Midnight network itself.- Early analysis points to 515 million NIGHT tokens moving from a two-year-old contract, representing about 2% of supply.- One wallet reportedly sold hundreds of millions of NIGHT across Cardano DEXs, while another wallet remained active with a large balance.- Some DEX and bridge operators responded by pausing features or limiting exit paths while the situation developed.- Peter warns viewers to rely on official updates, remain alert to phishing or impersonation scams, and avoid treating the price drop as a simple dip-buying opportunity.- The episode reinforces why bridge infrastructure is a high-risk part of crypto and why formal methods and peer review matter.Links & References:Wanchain vulnerability affecting NIGHT:- https://link.learncardano.io/AId82AOfficial Statement from Midnight Foundation:- https://link.learncardano.io/IBeKLOInitial analysis from CWPaul:- https://link.learncardano.io/CSpEn3Watch onchain activity:- https://link.learncardano.io/COufi4- https://link.learncardano.io/SQQBZMAnalysis from UTXOMaestro:- https://link.learncardano.io/ACOFNEWatch for Updates from Wanchain:- https://link.learncardano.io/v1Qq9zWebsite: https://link.learncardano.io/bQ68RcX/Twitter: https://link.learncardano.io/3a1QtvDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

Craig reviews another slow week across the crypto market, with Bitcoin continuing to struggle below $65,000 and most major coins trading sideways. He remains long Litecoin after a clean daily breakout and is watching for a possible pullback and bullish continuation. Ethereum showed slightly more strength, while Binance Coin, Cardano, Dogecoin, Solana, XRP, and Tron offered very little momentum. Bitcoin Cash was one of the weaker performers, falling roughly 10% over the week. With few strong trends available, Craig is focusing on higher-timeframe breakout setups in markets such as Injective and Ethereum Classic rather than forcing low-quality trades. His main message is patience: when conditions are this slow, traders should reduce activity, manage risk carefully, and wait for the market to provide better opportunities.Start your free 7-day trial of Market Intern at: https://marketintern.comSubscribe to Craig's free Tuesday newsletter at: https://www.thegrowmeco.comHappy Hodling, Everyone.

This Cardano ADA news update starts with the Linux Foundation's x402 Foundation and the rise of internet-native AI agent payments. Cardano is listed through the Cardano Foundation, but the membership tier raises a bigger question: is Cardano shaping the standard, or just appearing beside it?Peter then connects that x402 story to Masumi, Hydra, DeltaDeFi, SBI's move with Solana in Japan, AlphaGrowth, Blockfrost, and the upcoming Van Rossum hard fork. The core theme is simple: Cardano has serious technology, but the ecosystem needs stronger business development, marketing, liquidity, and user adoption if those projects are going to survive and grow.Chapters:0:00 Intro and x402 setup1:18 AI agent payments explained3:01 x402 membership tiers5:13 Cardano associate member question7:17 Masumi, Hydra and AI payments9:06 DeltaDeFi pauses operations11:51 SBI, Solana and Japan14:10 Cardano adoption problem15:44 AlphaGrowth proof case19:10 Blockfrost infrastructure risk23:46 Cardano needs marketing26:19 Van Rossum hard fork warningWhat you'll learn:- x402 shows AI-native payments are becoming a serious internet payments category, with major finance, cloud, and crypto organisations involved.- Cardano Foundation is present in x402 as an associate member, but Peter questions how much influence that gives Cardano over the standard.- Masumi, Hydra, Leios, and Cardano's eUTXO model give Cardano a credible technical stack for AI agent payments.- DeltaDeFi pausing operations shows that strong Hydra-based products can still struggle when users, liquidity, and awareness do not arrive.- SBI choosing Solana in Japan highlights why business development and commercial representation matter, not just technical capability.- AlphaGrowth and Blockfrost are framed as examples of the growth and infrastructure support Cardano needs to turn technology into adoption.Links & References:Linux Foundation has launched the x402 Foundation:- https://link.learncardano.io/CixMMPCardano Foundation has joined x402 as an Associate Member:- https://link.learncardano.io/VZngLHLinux Foundation Announces Operational Launch of x402 Foundation to Standardize Internet-Native Payments for AI Agents and Applications:- https://link.learncardano.io/86s6Bs- https://link.learncardano.io/V5qvDKProjects on Cardano Using x402:- https://link.learncardano.io/643BBv- https://link.learncardano.io/5rilqGexplanation page for x402 on Cardano:- https://link.learncardano.io/JgPgBwDeltaDeFi operation will be paused effectively today:- https://link.learncardano.io/pgXJudSBI Partners with Solana Foundation:- https://link.learncardano.io/VsLBCbIf you Build It, They Will Come:- https://link.learncardano.io/ULtbrKAlphaGrowth's Work on Compound:- https://link.learncardano.io/vY9rlbAlphaGrowth Cardano Prime:- https://link.learncardano.io/5xOoK0Future of Blockfrost:- https://link.learncardano.io/mba82eCardano Node Update:- https://link.learncardano.io/9C45RS- https://link.learncardano.io/svhdpVPulse on Midnight:- https://link.learncardano.io/LsYlUOWebsite: https://link.learncardano.io/bQ68RcX/Twitter: https://link.learncardano.io/3a1QtvDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

Peter walks through the SecondFi security incident from the perspective of checking whether a Cardano wallet may have been affected, including the official SecondFi wallet checker, support resources, and exposure checks.This video focuses on practical safety steps: how to verify affected wallets, why you should be cautious before signing transactions from a potentially compromised wallet, and where to follow official SecondFi, Yoroi, and Lace updates.Chapters:0:00 SecondFi security incident2:30 What happened and why it matters5:00 Checking affected wallets8:00 Where to get official support11:00 Wallet exposure and next steps14:00 Lace, recovery, and safety reminders17:00 Final thoughtsWhat you'll learn:- How to check whether a Cardano wallet may have been affected by the SecondFi security incident.- Why people who previously used Yoroi or SecondFi should follow the official checker and support channels.- What to watch out for before signing transactions from a wallet that may be compromised.- How emergency sweeps, wallet exposure checks, and official support resources fit into the recovery process.- Why this is general safety guidance only and not personal wallet recovery or financial advice.Links & References:Security Incident Update:- https://link.learncardano.io/GWxDr4SecondFi Incident Wallet Checker:- https://link.learncardano.io/TY3hGySecondFi Support:- https://link.learncardano.io/QOJQY6Wallet Exposure Check:- https://link.learncardano.io/f4yw1CPhil UPLC:- https://link.learncardano.io/0hv6kpSecondFi X Account:- https://link.learncardano.io/gZ3GOCLace Wallet X Account:- https://link.learncardano.io/e4G1O8Website: https://link.learncardano.io/bQ68RcX/Twitter: https://link.learncardano.io/3a1QtvDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

Het was me het beursdagje weer wel. Zo beschuldigt Apple OpenAI van diefstal en spant het een rechtszaak aan. AkzoNobel zit op zijn beurt dan weer niet te wachten op wéér een overnamebod van wéér het Japanse Nippon Paint. Deze aflevering hebben we het over die twee bijzondere zaken. Maar ook uitgebreid over de omzetcijfers van TSMC, de grootste chipmaker van de wereld. Dat stunt terwijl de lat al zo hoog ligt. We kijken wat dat betekent voor de kwartaalcijfers van ASML. Dat verkoopt namelijk veel aan TSMC, gaan we dat terugzien in hun kwartaalcijfers? Ook gaat het over de goede verkoopcijfers van autobouwer Stellantis. Dat heeft een rampjaar achter de rug. Vorig jaar een recordverlies van dik 22 miljard. Maar er schijnt licht aan het einde van de autotunnel! De verkopen in Europa trekken aan, maar het zijn vooral de verkopen in de VS die gunstig stemmen. Daar doet Stellantis het opvallend goed. Verder hoor je ook meer over Disney. Wells Fargo zegt dat het mediabedrijf zijn streamingtak moet afsplitsen. Dan zou het aandeel met 40 (!) procent stijgen. Te gast: Corné van Zeijl van Cardano BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn. Sinds de eerste uitzending van BNR Beurs is 'ie er bij. Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat. Je hoort hem ook in de BNR-podcast Moerdijk: dorp van de rekening. Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en is redacteur bij de podcast Onder Curatoren. Vraag hem naar obscure zaken op financiële markten en hij vertelt je waarom het eigenlijk nóg leuker is dan je al dacht. Over de podcast: Met BNR Beurs ga je altijd voorbereid de nieuwe beursdag in. We praten je in een kleine 25 minuten bij over alle laatste ontwikkelingen op de handelsvloer. We blijven niet alleen bij de AEX of Wall Street, maar vertellen je ook waar nog meer kansen liggen. En we houden het niet bij de cijfers, maar zoeken ook iedere dag voor je naar duiding van scherpe gasten en experts. Of je nu een ervaren belegger bent of net begint met je eerste stappen op de beurs, de podcast biedt waardevolle inzichten voor je beleggingsstrategie. Door de focus op zowel de korte termijn als de lange termijn, helpt BNR Beurs luisteraars om de ruis van de markt te scheiden van de essentie. Van Musk tot Microsoft en van Ahold tot ASML. Wij vertellen je wat beleggers bezighoudt, wie de markten in beweging zet en wat dat betekent voor jouw beleggingsportefeuille.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Australia's High Court has ruled that Block Earner's old Earner product was a financial product, giving crypto earn, yield and rewards providers a much clearer legal line to deal with. The episode explains why the ruling matters for Australian crypto users, why it does not mean crypto itself has been banned, and why products that promise passive returns may now need the right licences before operating in Australia.Peter breaks down how Block Earner's Earner product worked, why the court compared it to a bank-style deposit product, and what changed after all seven High Court judges agreed the product required a financial services licence. He also looks at the practical impact for users, platforms and smaller crypto companies that may face higher compliance costs or choose to leave the Australian market.The episode then separates custodial yield products from Cardano's native delegation model. Plain Cardano staking keeps ADA in the user's own wallet, does not pool custody with a stake pool operator, and appears to sit on the safer side of the legal line, while more complex staking services, guaranteed returns, liquid staking or pooled custody arrangements need proper legal advice.Chapters:0:00 Did Australia Ban Earn?1:06 Products Needing Licences2:12 Who Block Earner Was3:17 Labels Do Not Matter4:15 The High Court Ruling5:02 Block Earner Moved On5:31 Why Guardrails Matter7:32 Does ADA Staking Count?8:41 Cardano Delegation Difference9:55 Where Staking Gets Murky10:38 What It Means11:27 Wrap UpWhat you'll learn:- Australia's High Court ruled that Block Earner's old Earner product was a financial product because it let users seek a return and had derivative-like exposure to crypto prices.- Block Earner did not have the required financial services licence for Earner, but that product had already been shut down in 2022 before the case reached the High Court.- Block Earner has since moved to a regulated model and secured an Australian Credit Licence in May 2026 for its crypto-backed lending business.- Australian crypto platforms offering fixed earn, yield or rewards products may need licences, clearer risk disclosure and stronger compliance standards.- The ruling does not ban crypto, seize coins or automatically outlaw every staking arrangement; it targets products that take user funds and promise returns.- Cardano's native delegation model is materially different from custodial pooling because ADA remains in the user's wallet and never goes to the stake pool operator.- Stake pool operators and staking service providers should get proper legal advice, especially if they custody assets, pool funds, issue liquid staking tokens or guarantee returns.Links & References:Block Earner becomes the first crypto company in Australia to secure an Australian Credit Licence:- https://link.learncardano.io/4cBg4VAustralia's High Court backs regulator in Block Earner crypto yield case:- https://link.learncardano.io/8p3G4RASIC successful in High Court Block Earner appeal:- https://link.learncardano.io/JBZ86rAustralian Securities and Investments Commission v Web3 Ventures Pty Ltd:- https://link.learncardano.io/kVaKTwWebsite: https://link.learncardano.io/bQ68RcX/Twitter: https://link.learncardano.io/3a1QtvDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

Start your free 7-day trial of Market Intern at https://marketintern.com and see how Craig identifies high-probability trading setups before they develop.Craig Cobb explains why he's still sitting largely in cash despite Bitcoin posting a strong week. While many traders are calling the bottom, Craig believes Bitcoin remains trapped between $59,000 support and $65,000 resistance, with the broader bear market still intact. Instead of forcing trades on Bitcoin, he's focusing on cleaner opportunities in assets like XRP and other altcoins that continue producing strong trends on the lower timeframes.Craig also reviews the top 10 cryptocurrencies, discusses why Cardano and Solana showed relative strength last week, and explains why the U.S. Dollar Index remains one of the most important charts for predicting the next move in Bitcoin and other risk assets. His advice remains simple: preserve capital, trade the trends that exist, and don't mistake one good week for the start of a new bull market.Happy Hodling, Everyone. Hosted on Acast.

Your staking rewards are being taxed twice.When you receive staking rewards (ADA, ETH, SOL, etc.), the ATO treats them as ordinary income at the point you receive them. Then, when you later sell or dispose of those assets, you pay capital gains tax on the profit.In this episode, we break down exactly how the ATO views staking rewards, airdrops, and DeFi transactions, why many people are only reporting half the story, and what the new 2027 CGT rules will change.We also cover:- How the ATO's data matching program works- Why airdrops have zero cost basis- Why wrapping assets in DeFi counts as a disposal- What you need to start tracking nowThis is educational content only — not financial or tax advice.

In this Cardano ADA news update, Peter covers the latest SecondFi recovery steps after the Yoroi/SecondFi wallet incident, including the asset recovery checker, support ticket process, hardware wallet migration guidance, and the temporary pause on Midnight Glacier Drop redemptions. The episode also looks at Open USD, Brale, and the Cardano Foundation's pathway into the new stablecoin standard, plus the upcoming Catalyst pilot around stablecoins, programmable tokens, and on-chain identity. From there, Peter digs into Cardano's DeFi activity problem, treasury funding debates, the proposed 500 million ADA net change limit, Cardano Prime, and why DRep delegation matters for the next phase of governance. This is an ecosystem update for ADA holders who want to understand what is changing across wallets, stablecoins, DeFi, treasury funding, and Cardano governance without the hype. Chapters: 0:00 SecondFi Recovery Update 6:31 Open USD Stablecoin Standard 10:15 Brale And Catalyst Links 14:56 Cardano DeFi Revenue Debate 21:49 DRep Priorities And Proof 24:43 Treasury Net Change Limit 27:01 Cardano Prime Proposal 31:30 Find A DRep 32:20 Wrap Up Key Takeaways: - SecondFi has released an asset recovery checker and is directing affected users to submit support tickets while avoiding transactions from potentially compromised wallets. - A 16 million ADA recovery fund has been allocated for users affected in the initial SecondFi wallet drain, while White Hat recovered assets are being held separately. - Midnight Glacier Drop redemptions are temporarily suspended as a precaution while the SecondFi recovery and wallet mapping process is resolved. - Open USD brings major payment companies, banks, and crypto infrastructure providers into a new stablecoin standard, with Cardano connected indirectly through Brale. - The Cardano Foundation's Brale relationship and the upcoming Catalyst pilot could create a route for OUSD, stablecoins, programmable tokens, and identity tooling on Cardano. - Cardano still needs far more on-chain activity and real revenue-generating dApps if transaction fees are to support stake pool operators over the long term. - The proposed 500 million ADA net change limit may shape whether major initiatives such as Cardano Prime can receive treasury funding. - DRep delegation remains important because treasury funding decisions are increasingly tied to DeFi, infrastructure, and ecosystem growth priorities.

Australia's capital gains tax rules are changing from 1 July 2027, and the shift could matter for anyone holding crypto, shares, property or other investment assets. In this episode, Peter walks through what is changing, why the government is making the change, and how the move from the 50% CGT discount to indexation plus a 30% minimum tax floor may affect Australian crypto investors.The episode covers the current CGT treatment for crypto, how long-term holders currently access the 50% discount, what the new indexation model is designed to do, and why the transition period could create messy gain-splitting calculations for assets held before and after 1 July 2027. It also looks at practical planning conversations to have with an accountant, including whether to realise gains before the cutoff, hold through the change, borrow against assets, or explore superannuation structures.This content is general education only and is not financial, legal or tax advice. Speak with a qualified accountant or financial adviser before making decisions about selling, restructuring or borrowing against crypto assets.Key Takeaways:- The current 50% CGT discount for assets held longer than 12 months is being replaced by an indexation-based approach from 1 July 2027.- The new system includes a 30% minimum tax floor on real capital gains, which may affect investors differently depending on their marginal tax rate.- Crypto remains subject to standard CGT rules, including disposals triggered by selling, swapping, gifting, converting to fiat or spending crypto.- Assets held before 1 July 2027 and sold after that date may require gains to be split between the old and new systems.- The change may create planning decisions for long-term crypto holders who already have unrealised gains.- Some investors may consider realising gains before the cutoff, while others may prefer to hold and accept the new treatment.- Borrowing against assets and self-managed super fund structures are discussed as options to raise with a qualified adviser.- The episode strongly emphasises getting personal tax advice before making any CGT-related decisions.Links & References:- Tax reform bill passes the Parliament: https://link.learncardano.io/HfEtiC- Greens back CGT, negative gearing changes in return for extended NDIS inquiry, end to super loophole - ABC News: https://link.learncardano.io/SQig5Z- Federal Budget 2026–27 | Insight | Baker McKenzie: https://link.learncardano.io/G6bprx- Federal Budget Analysis 2026 | Capital Gains Tax - William Buck Australia: https://link.learncardano.io/m8W6Ox- https://link.learncardano.io/LXjMqw- https://link.learncardano.io/E5WvMt- https://link.learncardano.io/CEFrM5Website: https://link.learncardano.io/bQ68RcX/Twitter: https://link.learncardano.io/3a1QtvDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

Bitcoin remains under pressure as another $469 million flows out of spot Bitcoin ETFs, pushing cumulative ETF demand to its weakest level since July 2025. Matt breaks down why institutional money continues leaving the market, what it means for Bitcoin's short-term outlook, and why history suggests long-term investors may still want to keep emotions in check despite growing fear.The episode also explores Japan's emergence as a global stablecoin leader, with both Circle's USDC and Ripple's RLUSD expanding into the country's regulated financial system. Matt discusses President Trump's decision to delay signing legislation containing a Federal Reserve CBDC ban, the implications for the Clarity Act, and why stablecoins—not Bitcoin—may ultimately become crypto's biggest real-world success story.Finally, Matt covers new crypto security incidents involving Genesis and Cardano wallets, Jameson Lopp's latest research on preparing Bitcoin for a post-quantum world, Kalshi's reported $40 billion valuation, and reflects on why every major Bitcoin bear market has tested investors' patience before rewarding those willing to think in years instead of weeks.Happy Hodling, Everyone.

Today, we cover the latest crypto news as rumors of a Cardano hack shake the altcoin market. Is this the start of a bigger crypto crash, or has Bitcoin finally found its bottom? We break down the biggest bitcoin, crypto, and altcoin developments, market reactions, and what investors need to watch next.

Peter interviews Bryan Colligan and Eric Waisanen from AlphaGrowth about the Cardano Prime proposal, the missing DeFi infrastructure on Cardano, how liquidity incentives could work, and what transparency the community should expect before treasury funds are committed.Key Takeaways:- AlphaGrowth says its Cardano Prime work would begin with a deep audit of Cardano DeFi infrastructure, applications, and liquidity gaps.- The team argues Cardano needs coordinated DeFi primitives, including stablecoin liquidity, money markets, DEX depth, bridges, and oracle infrastructure.- AlphaGrowth points to prior work with ecosystems such as Compound as evidence of its ability to attract and structure DeFi liquidity.- The proposal includes phased work: audit and planning, protocol buildout and integrations, then marketing and incentive campaigns.- The interview covers KPIs, reporting, community oversight, and why treasury funds should be released with accountability checks.- Peter pushes for detail on timelines, execution risk, UTXO-specific challenges, and whether this can realistically move Cardano DeFi by year end.Links & References:AlphaGrowth Cardano Prime Proposalhttps://link.learncardano.io/RKWXyBBryan Colligan: Founder & CEOhttps://link.learncardano.io/XbzA78https://link.learncardano.io/xyZcQoEric Waisanen: Head of DeFi Operationshttps://link.learncardano.io/JnyEpEWebsite: https://learncardano.ioX/Twitter: https://x.com/LearnCardanoDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

Peter breaks down the latest SecondFi incident updates, why the issue was not a Cardano protocol hack, what affected users should avoid doing, how the white-hat recovery appears to have protected most funds, and why hardware wallets matter.Key Takeaways:- SecondFi says the security risk is at the address level and affected users should not restore their recovery phrase into another Cardano wallet.- The incident appears tied to vulnerable wallet key generation rather than a Cardano protocol-level hack.- SecondFi reported that external threat actors drained about 16 million ADA, while emergency white-hat measures secured about 129 million ADA for affected wallets.- Users should rely on official SecondFi support updates and be alert for scammers impersonating support during the recovery process.- Peter explains why hardware wallets such as Keystone, Ledger, and Tangem reduce signing and seed-phrase exposure risks.- The episode also covers positive ecosystem updates including the Leios Musashi Dojo testnet and RealFi progress.Links & References:Ignore the FUDhttps://link.learncardano.io/5Urg79Cardano Wasn't Hackedhttps://link.learncardano.io/IvXvSdSecondFi Providing Clarityhttps://link.learncardano.io/0yU82mPhil's commentshttps://link.learncardano.io/xYHJ9TMax Explains vulnerabilityhttps://link.learncardano.io/aV0RHFSecondFi Explains the Whitehat Situationhttps://link.learncardano.io/253neTGiovani and Paul distils their messagehttps://link.learncardano.io/LpEFlUhttps://link.learncardano.io/0h3srNItsDave's hack visualisationhttps://link.learncardano.io/4GSHsRSeba confirmshttps://link.learncardano.io/hcqwWYLeios Musashi Dojo is Livehttps://link.learncardano.io/waRG02RealFi is cominghttps://link.learncardano.io/dg75nSWebsite: https://learncardano.ioX/Twitter: https://x.com/LearnCardanoDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

Craig Cobb focuses this week on a market many crypto investors overlook: the U.S. Dollar Index. After breaking above major resistance around the 100 level, Craig believes the dollar may be beginning a larger move higher toward 106. Historically, stronger dollar environments have created pressure for equities and other risk assets, leading him to question whether Bitcoin could face another leg lower if the trend continues.On the crypto side, Craig remains cautious. Bitcoin continues struggling below key resistance around $65,000, and while a move above roughly $67,300 could shift the daily trend back to bullish, he believes the probabilities still favor downside for now. Across the broader market, assets like Cardano, Dogecoin, Solana, and XRP remain trapped below important resistance levels, with Tron standing out as one of the few exceptions showing relative strength.Craig's message remains simple: trade the trend, not the narrative. While last week's decline created profitable opportunities for traders, the market is now sitting in what he calls "no man's land." Until clearer trends emerge, he believes patience, risk management, and waiting for high-probability setups remain the best strategy.Check Craig out at:Market Intern: https://marketintern.com/The Grow Me Co: https://www.thegrowmeco.com/Happy Hodling, Everyone.

Australia's High Court is being asked to consider a deceptively simple question with huge consequences: is crypto property, or merely information controlled by private keys?In this episode, Peter breaks down Poulton v Conrad, a dispute that began with Bitcoin purchased in 2013 and has grown into a major legal test for digital assets in Australia. The case raises questions about possession, control, conversion, taxation, custody, insurance, and what legal protection crypto holders actually have if assets are withheld, misappropriated, or stolen.This is not legal or financial advice. It is an educational discussion of the case and the wider implications for Australian crypto users.Key Takeaways:- Poulton v Conrad asks whether Bitcoin and other digital assets can be treated as personal property under Australian common law.- The dispute traces back to Bitcoin purchased in 2013 and later arguments over control, possession, forks, and damages.- One side argues crypto is not a physical object or bank-backed debt, but information accessed through private keys.- The other side argues crypto behaves like property because it is identifiable, transferable, rivalrous, and economically valuable.- A clear property ruling could strengthen civil remedies for stolen or misappropriated digital assets.- A ruling against property treatment could create major uncertainty for taxation, custody, insurance, and crypto platforms in Australia.Links & References:- https://link.learncardano.io/fdP2Aw- https://link.learncardano.io/6RvedE- https://link.learncardano.io/Nj84CxWebsite: https://link.learncardano.io/bQ68RcX/Twitter: https://link.learncardano.io/3a1QtvDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

Australia's crypto Travel Rule starts on 1 July 2026, and it is already changing how Aussies move Bitcoin and other crypto off exchanges. In this episode, Peter breaks down what AUSTRAC's rule actually requires, why exchanges are adding extra verification, and what it could mean for withdrawals, deposits, cold storage, and financial privacy.The key point is not that every blockchain transaction suddenly has your name written on-chain. The rule applies to regulated businesses such as exchanges, banks, remittance providers, and other virtual asset service providers. But if you move assets between an exchange and a self-custody wallet, expect more friction as platforms collect and pass on payer, payee, and tracing information.Is this a sensible compliance step to reduce scams and money laundering, or does it push too far into personal financial privacy? This episode looks at both sides and asks where the line should be drawn.Key Takeaways:- Australia's crypto Travel Rule takes effect on 1 July 2026 and applies to regulated crypto platforms and other financial businesses.- Crypto exchanges may need to collect and pass on identifying information when customers transfer assets to another platform or wallet.- The rule can apply regardless of transfer size, meaning small and large transfers may face similar compliance checks.- Withdrawals to self-custody wallets may require proof of wallet control before an exchange approves the transfer.- The Travel Rule does not mean names are automatically stamped onto public blockchains for every transaction.- Pure self-custody and peer-to-peer activity sit outside the exchange workflow, but deposits and withdrawals through regulated platforms can still face friction.- The debate is between stronger anti-scam and anti-money-laundering controls versus the loss of practical financial privacy for everyday crypto users.- Australian crypto users should understand the rule before moving assets so they are not surprised by delays or extra verification.Links & References:- https://link.learncardano.io/Z6geXE- Reddit - Please wait for verification: https://link.learncardano.io/HWI7V0- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/bbReRJ- https://link.learncardano.io/frorAV- Australians are Withdrawing Their Bitcoin Because of This Rule Change: https://link.learncardano.io/3Jhrha- Binance Australia Mandates Full User ID for All Crypto Transfers Starting July 1: https://link.learncardano.io/sY4Rrj- Travel Rule Australia: Everything You Need to Know | Swyftx - Cheap, Easy, Secure: https://link.learncardano.io/50r9d9Website: https://link.learncardano.io/bQ68RcX/Twitter: https://link.learncardano.io/3a1QtvDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

Craig says Bitcoin did exactly what he expected, breaking below the critical $74,000 support level and quickly falling through $65,000. He believes both the weekly and monthly charts now confirm a downtrend, with lower highs and lower lows pointing toward the possibility of further downside before a true bottom is established. While he's not trying to predict the exact low, Craig says he'd become an aggressive buyer in the $50,000–$55,000 range and would be even more interested if Bitcoin fell into the mid-$40,000s.Despite the bearish outlook, Craig believes Bitcoin is becoming stretched to the downside and could see a relief rally back toward $65,000 in the near term. He also highlights similar bearish structures across Ethereum, Cardano, Solana, and Bitcoin Cash, noting that Cardano produced one of the cleanest short setups of the week. His message remains consistent: follow the trend, manage risk, and focus on high-probability setups rather than trying to pick tops and bottoms.Check Craig out at:Market Intern: https://marketintern.com/The Grow Me Co: https://www.thegrowmeco.com/ Hosted on Acast.

NuNet is building a decentralised compute and orchestration network where people can contribute spare CPU, GPU, RAM and other resources, while developers and organisations can deploy workloads across available infrastructure. In this episode, Peter talks with Jennifer from NuNet about the new NuNet Appliance and why it matters for making decentralised compute more practical for everyday users.The conversation covers how NuNet matches the right compute to the right job, how the Appliance lowers the barrier to onboarding devices, and why use cases like n8n automations, private AI agents, edge AI, Cardano SPO infrastructure and web deployment workflows are a natural fit for the network. Jennifer also explains NuNet's zero-trust security model, pricing approach, organisations, ensembles, deployment templates, and how NTX fits into orchestration fees.If you have spare compute, want to run private AI workloads, or are building in the DePIN and Cardano ecosystem, this episode gives a practical look at how NuNet is moving from concept to usable infrastructure.Key Takeaways:- NuNet is a decentralised compute and orchestration platform that lets people contribute spare compute and lets workloads find suitable resources automatically.- The NuNet Appliance is designed to make onboarding CPUs, GPUs, RAM and other compute resources much easier for non-expert users.- NuNet can support broad workloads, including n8n automation, private AI agents, Qwen-based LLM deployments, edge AI, web builds and Cardano SPO infrastructure.- The network uses a zero-trust model where machines are cryptographically identified and verified at each interaction.- Compute pricing is designed around stable currency values, with automatic conversion into NTX rather than forcing users to price workloads directly in a volatile token.- NuNet organisations can let other DePIN projects bring their own communities and native tokens while still using NuNet's orchestration layer.- Ensembles and templates are intended to simplify deployments so users do not need to manually understand every YAML configuration detail.- NuNet is open source, with docs, GitLab, Discord, Medium and X available for people who want to try the network or contribute.Links & References:- NuNet — Compute Orchestration for a Decentralized World: https://link.learncardano.io/eGKGuZ- What is NuNet? | NuNet Documentation: https://link.learncardano.io/rHu2E4- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/NIhPKR- https://link.learncardano.io/Tlu7wNWebsite: https://link.learncardano.io/bQ68RcX/Twitter: https://link.learncardano.io/3a1QtvDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

Peras is one of the most important Cardano upgrades to understand if you care about real user experience, not just theoretical throughput. In this episode, Peter breaks down what finality actually means on Cardano, why transactions can look complete long before they are deeply settled, and how that affects people moving assets across chains.The episode focuses on two practical examples: the USDCX bridge between Ethereum and Cardano, and the Midnight canonical bridge. Both highlight the same pain point. When finality takes too long, bridging becomes slow, awkward and hard to trust. Peras aims to shorten that wait dramatically and make Cardano far more competitive for cross-chain movement.Peter also walks through the role of settlement, slot battles and why this upgrade matters beyond a single feature release. If Peras lands as expected, it could improve the experience for everyday users, bridge operators and ecosystem apps without changing Cardano's core security priorities.Key Takeaways:- Peras is aimed at reducing Cardano finality from roughly 12 minutes to around 2 minutes.- The episode separates visible on-chain inclusion from deeper settlement, which is what bridges and larger transfers really care about.- Cardano slot battles and rollback risk explain why a transaction can appear complete before it is fully final.- Slow finality creates a poor experience for cross-chain movement, especially on bridges like USDCX and the Midnight canonical bridge.- Faster finality could make moving assets between Cardano, Ethereum and Midnight feel much more practical.- Peter connects Peras to broader Cardano infrastructure work, including bridge usability and future scaling improvements like Leios.Links & References:- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/2IPGKJ- tweag.github.io: https://link.learncardano.io/YN0A3N- Governance action | Cardano Explorer: https://link.learncardano.io/d4wTYs- A statement from Tweag by Modus Create to the Cardano community - Tweag: https://link.learncardano.io/3WTv5W- USDCx Bridge: https://link.learncardano.io/uj8fobWebsite: https://link.learncardano.io/bQ68RcX/Twitter: https://link.learncardano.io/3a1QtvDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.

Cardano Foundation has partnered with the Brazilian Olympic Committee on a three-year roadmap focused on sports innovation, and this episode breaks down why that matters beyond the headline. Peter walks through the practical use cases being discussed, including digital identity, certification, fan engagement, equipment tracking, and on-chain governance.Rather than treating this as vague adoption theatre, the episode looks at where blockchain may genuinely fit within sporting institutions, especially when legacy systems are fragmented, paper-based, or difficult to audit. It is an early-stage pilot, but it offers a concrete example of how public blockchain infrastructure could be tested in a real-world national organisation.Key Takeaways:- The partnership is framed as a three-year roadmap between Cardano Foundation and the Brazilian Olympic Committee, not a one-off marketing announcement.- The four main areas discussed are identity and certification, fan engagement, equipment tracking, and on-chain governance.- Digital identity is one of the clearest use cases because therapists, facilitators, and staff could carry portable verified credentials across venues and events.- NFT-based fan engagement could enable ticketing, access control, collectibles, and direct on-chain rewards without relying on traditional account systems.- Supply-chain style tracking for sporting equipment could improve visibility, reduce loss, and make logistics easier across multiple locations.- The governance angle is still early, but transparent voting and funding decisions are a natural area for blockchain experimentation inside sporting bodies.- Peter's broader view is that blockchain is often easiest to introduce where processes are still inefficient or only partly digitised.Links & References:- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/FI3qpg- https://link.learncardano.io/O4QES6- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/hA8ejv- x.com: https://link.learncardano.io/cHnUwyWebsite: https://link.learncardano.io/bQ68RcX/Twitter: https://link.learncardano.io/3a1QtvDisclaimer: This content is for educational purposes only.
