Bitcoin has smashed a new all-time high of $111,861 on CoinMarketCap—and it happened on Bitcoin Pizza Day! Exactly 15 years ago, Laszlo Hanyecz spent 10,000 BTC on two pizzas in what's now seen as the first-ever real-world Bitcoin transaction. Today, those two pizzas are worth over $1.1 billion. Absolutely insane! This historic rally is being fueled by major institutional buying from Michael Saylor's Strategy, which now holds over 576,000 BTC, and a surge of inflows into spot Bitcoin ETFs—over $609 million just yesterday. Adding to the momentum, a key stablecoin bill advancing in the U.S. Senate is giving markets hope for long-awaited regulatory clarity under a pro-crypto Trump administration.

In contrast with yesterday's guest, the Paris based Financial Times writer Simon Kuper, the newspaper's London based columnist Jemima Kelly hasn't quite given up on the United States of America. Trump, she suggests, might be the end of the line for the MAGA movement. Indeed, like another recent guest on the show, former Wired editor Peter Leyden, Kelly suggests that the Republicans might be flirting with the destruction of their brand for the next political generation. Unlike Leyden, however, Kelly isn't particularly bullish on the future of the Democratic Party, arguing that there is a desperate need for a formal national opposition to Trump's MAGA Republicanism. And in contrast with Leyden, Kelly doesn't see much of an opposition - moral or otherwise - from seemingly spineless tech billionaires like Mark Zuckerberg or Marc Andreessen. 5 Key Takeaways* Kelly is most concerned about Trump's "utter disregard for the legal system and the kind of lawlessness" that characterizes his second administration.* She believes Democrats lack cohesive opposition structure, noting America could benefit from a shadow cabinet system like the UK's to provide clear alternative voices.* Kelly predicts "MAGA is going to finish with Trump" as there's no viable successor who can match his charisma and stage presence.* She criticizes tech leaders like Mark Zuckerberg for capitulating to Trump, questioning how they justify abandoning values for business interests.* Kelly argues that maintaining moral principles is crucial for Democrats, as sinking to Trump's level only erodes institutional trust, which has already been significantly damaged. Full Transcript Andrew Keen: Hello, everybody. It is Wednesday, April the 23rd, 2025. Headlines today remain dominated by Donald Trump. Every story above the fold, at least above the digital fold in the Financial Times, seems to be about him. Yesterday, we talked to FT columnist Simon Cooper, a Dutchman living in Paris, who had an interesting piece earlier this week suggesting Americans should move to Europe, indicating the American dream was over. Cooper seemed to relish this news. Today, we're talking to another FT columnist, Jemima Kelly. She's based in northeast London, in Hackney, and she's talking to us today from the FT offices in the heart of London City. Jemima, what's your take on Simon's column this week? Is it indeed time for most Americans to move to Europe?Jemima Kelly: I thought it was a very interesting column. I'm particularly interested in this idea that you discussed on your show about the brain drain that has been going in the direction of America and that might start to come back in the other direction, which I hadn't really properly considered before in those terms. But I must say that I'm not really a fan of encouraging people to all be digital nomads. He's actually followed it up with a piece today about how to be a digital nomad in Paris. I'm not really a fan of that kind of lifestyle because I think that it means people aren't particularly invested in their local communities, and I think it makes a bit of a crappy neighborhood if everyone is just working their own jobs. The dream of earning a US salary while working remotely living in Europe—I'm just like, please don't do that because then we're just importing inequality.Andrew Keen: Although to be fair, was Simon actually saying that?Jemima Kelly: I think he did say that the ultimate life, the ultimate arbitrage was doing that. And it's true, it is the ultimate arbitrage. It's just not one that I would particularly want people to pursue. It's like the Airbnb culture—it's destroyed a lot of cities and priced out local people, meaning certain cities you visit have no locals, just tourists, which is quite crap as a tourist.Andrew Keen: I guess the other critique of Simon's piece, which is an extension of yours, is for Americans who don't like Trump—and there are many, including myself—it's not time to move to Europe. It's not time to retreat. It is time to stay and fight and try to change America. So there's no reason why you have to shift. Jemima, you're a columnist at what you call on your X account "Friends of the Deep State" (FT). I'm using you as the voice of the European deep state. What's the take from London on Trump on April 23, 2025? It's so hard to make any sense of it. In a meta sense, in a structural sense, what's your take on what's happening?Jemima Kelly: I'm going to answer that in three parts. First, the "Friends of the Deep State" is obviously a reference to Liz Truss, who referred to the FT as the deep state.Andrew Keen: I want to come on to Truss later, another rather clownish character, your version of Donald Trump.Jemima Kelly: Yes, Britain's proudest export. Second, I would probably not want to speak for Europe or Britain. Maybe I can start by saying what I think the mood is.Andrew Keen: You live in Hackney in northeast London, so maybe you can speak on behalf of Hackney. What's the take on Trump from Hackney?Jemima Kelly: Just utter dismay. And I mean, I would say that's probably the mood I'm getting, even from people who thought there was too much hyperbole used about Trump in the run-up to his election. I didn't think comparisons to Hitler were particularly helpful.Andrew Keen: You're not alone. We've had that conversation many times on the show. I strongly agree with you.Jemima Kelly: So while there were people who were very hysterical about the idea of a Trump 2.0 being worse than the first time, I think so far, it does seem kind of worse, doesn't it?Andrew Keen: I'm asking you.Jemima Kelly: I would say there is a sense that things are quite scary at the moment. I think what I personally find most worrying, and that many balanced people are talking about, is the utter disregard for the courts and the rule of law. I was amazed looking at Truth Social earlier. I saw a post from Trump about an alleged MS-13 gang member.Andrew Keen: The Venezuelan who was illegally extradited or seized and taken to El Salvador.Jemima Kelly: I think this guy is actually Salvadoran. Trump has posted a picture of an alleged knuckle tattoo with four symbols which some people have extrapolated to mean MS-13. It's very obviously just computer-generated text superimposed on the image. Trump has posted it and appears to believe this is actually tattooed onto the man's knuckles, using that as justification. I think the utter disregard for the legal system and the lawlessness of Trump 2.0 is for me the most disturbing aspect because where does that end? It's just utter chaos.I might write this week about how Trump sees the world as just deal-making and transactions. The ends will always justify the means. He's openly saying he's going to keep pushing as hard as he can to get what he wants. But his followers, who are constantly rushing to justify everything he does, including his vice president, are glorifying the means themselves, which Trump himself doesn't even really believe in. People are willing to take what he says at face value and make it happen, like Vance going to Greenland on this supposed visit.Andrew Keen: You said in an excellent column earlier this month that Vance has "the zeal of the convert" and that's the problem.Jemima Kelly: Yes, because he once called Trump "America's Hitler."Andrew Keen: And he didn't mean it in a complimentary way.Jemima Kelly: I don't think he did.Andrew Keen: So, Jemima, stand back a little. Simon noted that he'd always believed in America growing up. A lot of his friends went to America. You're a slightly younger generation from Simon. When you graduated from university, did a lot of your friends go to America? Did you ever think maybe you should go to America as a singer or a journalist?Jemima Kelly: Did any of my friends? It's quite difficult as a British person going to America. Quite a few of my friends have ended up there, particularly in LA for some reason. I almost moved to New York with my previous employer, Reuters, and have considered it, but wanted to stay in London. I love America; it's a completely amazing and fascinating place. But it does feel like people I speak to at the moment are feeling concerned. Someone in New Orleans told me that when conservative columnists in the New York Times are writing that it's time for some kind of uprising...Andrew Keen: That was David Brooks. And Simon wrote about a friend of his in Georgia who said he couldn't even go out because he was scared to bump into Trump people.Jemima Kelly: I saw that. That's not how I personally believe that divisions should be handled. The idea that you shouldn't go out because you might bump into some Trump fans—I don't know about that.Andrew Keen: I couldn't agree more. Your last column, in the spirit of Easter, was titled "It's the hope that saves you." It was a broader column, not just about America. But do you still have a vestige, a glimmer of hope in America? Have you given up?Jemima Kelly: Oh, God, yes, I still have hope. I am an optimist. But I also believe that being optimistic and hopeful, which as I explain in the column are slightly different things, gives you a higher chance of things going well. If you don't resort to cynicism and nihilism, which I don't think is particularly helpful.Another column I would like to write in the coming weeks is that I am becoming convinced that MAGA is going to finish with Trump. There is no MAGA after Trump. One thing that convinced me of this was listening to the "Triggered" podcast with Donald Trump Jr. I tried to listen to a range of podcasts, some more painful than others, and I listened to a full episode the other day and couldn't believe the level of imbecility.Andrew Keen: Well, we know what you mean anyway, even if that isn't the word.Jemima Kelly: And he's the best friend of the vice president, who's supposedly this genius.Andrew Keen: I'm sure in a year or two JD will have moved on to other "best friends."Jemima Kelly: Maybe, but I think they've been friends for a while. The thing with Trump is that he masks so much with his charisma and stage presence and what he calls "flexibility," not U-turning. And his people skills. Then you get the distilled version of him without all of that, and it's just so painfully bad and unpersuasive. There's no successor. Vance is the only one who the bookies currently have as the favorite, but that's because there's no leader on the other side; we don't know who the Democratic leader is.Andrew Keen: Peter Leyden, who was on the show a few days ago, the former editor-in-chief of Wired, believes that Trump is essentially destroying the Republican brand for a generation. It does provide an opportunity for the Democrats in the long term, although the Democrats probably have many problems of their own. Do you agree that ultimately the Republican brand has been decimated and is headed for 20 or 30 years of political isolation?Jemima Kelly: I think what they have going for them is that MAGA has its own name—there was always the MAGA part of the Republican Party and then the "other part" and the RINOs. Now they have somewhat merged, but I imagine that will start to separate if the Trump project keeps doing as badly as it seems to be. But it doesn't feel like there's any separation now between Trump and the institutions that are supposedly independent, with the Fed being an exception despite his saying he'd terminate Powell and then claiming the press made a big deal of it. It does feel like it will be difficult for Republicans to extricate themselves from Trump. There isn't anyone standing up and being vocally anti-Trump on that side at the moment.Andrew Keen: You noted that your satirical X profile "Friends of the Deep State" was borrowed from Liz Truss, who made a fool of herself and now is in political exile. Can we learn anything from the Truss fiasco? It seems to me as if Trump a couple of weeks ago on the bond front was, so to speak, "Trussed"—the market spoke and he had to retreat. Can we learn anything from recent British political or economic history to make sense of what's happening in the US, particularly in terms of Truss, who was humiliated by the markets?Jemima Kelly: Trump has the advantage of shamelessness, doesn't he?Andrew Keen: So you're saying that Liz Truss is not shameless?Jemima Kelly: That's a very good point. You could see the embarrassment on her face. Maybe that is just my projection of how I would feel.Andrew Keen: For people just listening, it's a picture of Liz Truss in New York with a MAGA hat on looking like a complete idiot.Jemima Kelly: Just before the inauguration saying, "It can't come soon enough."Andrew Keen: And she says "the West needs it," whatever that means.Jemima Kelly: She's constantly "saving the West." She was at a Bitcoin conference last weekend giving a speech on saving the West. It's really exciting that we have such capable hands to save the West.Andrew Keen: Especially at the Bitcoin conference.Jemima Kelly: Exactly. They're the real people to do it. What can we learn from Truss? What we can learn, and this takes us into the Democrats, is that a few people have floated the idea that America should have some form of shadow cabinet. One of the reasons that Truss lasted for only 42 days—less than the lettuce—was that we have such a vocal opposition in this country. It's very clear who the spokesperson is from the opposing party. So when a journalist is writing a story about Truss's mini budget, right away, you've got the shadow chancellor to tell you why it's a terrible idea. In America, it's not so clear, and I think that's a disadvantage.Andrew Keen: You wrote an excellent column in the last month on why America needs a "serious opposition."Jemima Kelly: It really opened my eyes, this idea of the shadow cabinet. Obviously, the government has a different structure in the US, and it's not a monarchy, etc. But the idea of some form—even if just in name only—if the Democrats were able to put forward a representative for each of the major government departments, it would help. It made me think that American media often sees itself as "the resistance"—the media is the resistance. I feel like our job is to report the news. Too often it feels like the media was trying to stop Trump from getting reelected or trying to hide that Biden was too old for another four years. The media is far too often doing the work that an opposition should be doing.It dawned on me that this is partly because of the lack of structure that we have with the constant back and forth. As a journalist, rather than having to explain why the Liz Truss mini-budget was bad, you've got someone on the other side to tell you. The Democrats are in disarray. Usually, there's nothing like a common enemy to unite you, and Trump should be that. Amid the tariffs, the trade war, the deportation of immigrants, threats to deport others to horrific Salvadoran prisons—if there were a time to be united, it would be now. This is peak Trump fear, and yet the Democrats have record low approval ratings among their supporters. A Gallup poll showed Republican approval of their congressmen is at 76 percent while Democrats are at 39 percent among Democrats. There is a real void of cohesive or coherent opposition.Andrew Keen: You've been quite critical of the Democrats. Back in July, you talked about the "Biden debacle" and the absurdity of a man clearly out of his depth. But you've also written more recently about Democrats not abandoning their morals. When historians look back, how much of a debacle was the Biden regime? Will it be seen as the trigger that enabled Trump 2.0, or would these things be seen separately?Jemima Kelly: I don't think it was Biden's administration; I think it was the cover-up of his physical decline.Andrew Keen: I wasn't surprised by that debate he had with Trump. He clearly was way beyond his shelf life. It was self-evident if you watched interviews with him.Jemima Kelly: It was already evident. I got into trouble for talking about this before the 2020 election because he had gotten the name of an interviewer wrong, and fact-checking organizations rushed in to say he hadn't. They were lying on his behalf, which shocked me.Andrew Keen: Does that make Trump's point on Truth Social that the media is really the Democratic party, or the two are inseparable?Jemima Kelly: It's funny because every time I've written about this, I've gotten pushback. I was the first "ritual sacrifice" on BlueSky a few months ago because I dared to say it was an echo chamber. Apparently, I implied that I wanted more Nazis on BlueSky, which is obviously sarcasm. One thing I find interesting—if you type "New York Times" into BlueSky, you'll get people complaining about how pro-Trump they are or how they're "both-sides-ists." If you type "New York Times" into X, you'll get people complaining about how anti-Trump they are and how it's just an extension of the Democratic Party.I think there's something like 3-4% of American journalists who vote Republican, so clearly, the media does lean left or Democrat. Trump is now letting really marginal right-wing news outlets into his briefings, which in some ways I don't think is all bad. I think it would be good to have a more balanced media.Andrew Keen: You wrote a good piece in December, "Democrats must not abandon their morals," which I guess goes without saying. There are still morals in the Republican party. Well, certainly ex-Republicans like David Brooks and Peter Wehner seem to be the most convincingly moral Americans. But that's another issue. What advice would you give the Democrats? On one hand, you've got a civil war within the party between its left—Bernie Sanders and AOC—versus centrists. They agree on almost nothing apart from being in the same big tent party. What advice would you give Democrats?Jemima Kelly: I don't feel in a position to give advice.Andrew Keen: What would you like to see then?Jemima Kelly: Just to be clear about the "Democrats shouldn't abandon their morals" column, that was written after Biden pardoned his son Hunter, which I found uncool. I hate that. I was arguing that if you're going to talk about how immoral the Trump project is and how full of lies it is—and it is all those things—then you have to show that you're better. I felt that was a failure during the first Trump term.I think outlets like the New York Times are doing better this time around. But there was an op-ed written after the first Trump victory about how objectivity needed to be abandoned, like there was a new game to play. I think that's really short-termist and will set a terrible precedent. Trump has come in again on the back of a massive loss of trust in institutions, which was already happening but was made worse by COVID—all the debates about origins, vaccines, etc. That chipped away at trust in science, government, and institutions in general.I write a lot about virtue and honor. I just wrote about hope. I don't think we think about values enough. Only the right in America seems to talk about religion. I'm not even a Christian myself—I was raised Catholic but don't consider myself that anymore—but I feel that values and morality aren't spoken about enough. The Democrats need to take the high ground. They were pulling up placards saying "Lie" at Trump's address to Congress, wearing colors to represent protest. AOC was doing videos saying "choose your fighter," trying to appeal to young people. It was all so cringe and inauthentic. When Trump is being seen as authentic, and Bernie Sanders, who does come across as authentic, there's such a vacuum of authenticity.Andrew Keen: You noted that one of the reasons why Trump is so successful is his eccentricity. That's one of his attractive qualities. A couple of quick questions before we go. You're at the FT, so you're supposed to understand the global economy. Back in September, you talked about America's crypto election. I have a nagging suspicion that crypto might be one of the things that ultimately blows up Trump. There is a lot of fraud within the administration on crypto, with some people making vast fortunes. Trump or his administration is in bed with the Bitcoin bros. What do you make of this association? Because Trump historically has always been ambivalent about crypto. Is this a sideshow or could it become the main show?Jemima Kelly: I don't think it could become the main show just because crypto is still not systemically important enough. If we compare it to the trade war, it pales in comparison in terms of numbers. The IMF downgrading forecasts by one percentage point for the US—that is far more likely to bring down Trump economically.Andrew Keen: Could we be seeing a restructuring of the global financial economy where crypto becomes an alternative to the Fed, given Trump's hostility towards the Fed?Jemima Kelly: God, no, not in my opinion. My ultimate point with crypto—and by the way, people who believe in Bitcoin (and I use the word "believe" deliberately because I do regard it as a belief system) think that Bitcoin is different from other crypto because it's the first one and will only have 21 million coins ever minted. But these are just strings of digits. Then someone comes along and says, "oh no, Bitcoin and Ethereum," and someone else adds Dogecoin as well.These aren't companies like the S&P 500 where there's a finite list. Each of these coins does absolutely nothing, and there's no limit to the number that can exist. I could speak about crypto for hours, but I always come back to the fact that there is no scarcity. Bitcoiners hate when I say this because they claim Bitcoin is different. There is no limit to the number of cryptocurrencies that can exist. If you look at CoinMarketCap.com, they used to count how many cryptocurrencies there were, but I think it got embarrassing because the counter disappeared. There are tens of thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands at this point. How can there be value when there's no scarcity?Andrew Keen: I hope you're right on that front. Finally, you've been very critical of Silicon Valley and big tech. You wrote a piece recently on Mark Zuckerberg caving into Trump. Zuckerberg caved in, Bezos appears to have with the Washington Post, some law firms have, some haven't. Do you think this will come back to haunt opportunists like Zuckerberg? Is it in the interest, not just moral but economic, of American business leaders, university leaders, and heads of law firms to stand up to all this nonsense?Jemima Kelly: I think so, yes. We have so glorified wealth that people only seem to think value exists in financial terms. If I were Mark Zuckerberg, I would care about what people thought of me, but that's even superficial. I would care about being able to sleep well at night. I don't know how these people justify it.I heard a Mark Andreessen podcast a few months ago where he said, "The one thing people don't understand about billionaires is they don't care about money. They just want people to like them." I thought that was really interesting, but it doesn't seem to match their actions.Andrew Keen: Well, we probably should end. I'm not sure if you've written any columns on Musk, but he seems to represent all of this. He's clearly distancing himself from Trump, just as Trump is distancing himself from Musk. Are we beginning to see the end of this love affair between the Musks and the Andreessens with Trump?Jemima Kelly: It's interesting because Musk was supposedly the savior of electric cars, but the current-day Musk would be so skeptical of electric cars. It's weird that he was that guy and now has to keep being that guy to a certain extent because it's his brand. I think he's been radicalized by people not liking him, and he's being pushed further into this corner because he wants to feel part of a tribe. Now he feels like he fits in at Mar-a-Lago and hangs out with Trump.Do I think that's the end of their relationship? It's hard to know. I wouldn't be surprised if they did fall out quite soon. But they're both very strange people, aren't they?Andrew Keen: To put it mildly. You've got a big picture of the two of them in a Tesla on the cover of the Financial Times. I think they're both secretly fans of Millwall Football Club with their famous song "Nobody Loves Us, We Don't Care."Jemima Kelly: What?Andrew Keen: I'm joking, but maybe the same is true of Donald Trump and certainly Elon Musk.Jemima Kelly: They care so much. That's what's funny. Trump cares more than anyone about people loving him. I think that's what drives him. He really wants to be seen as a good president, which comforts me when things are going badly because I think he wants people to love him. He really wants the Nobel Peace Prize, which is hilarious, but he does want that.Andrew Keen: Well, one thing we've resolved today is that Donald Trump is not a fan of Millwall Football Club. He wants everybody to love him. He does care if they don't. Jemima, I know you don't really care because you're someone who will always say what you think. We'll have to get you back on the show for The View from London. Not an eccentric view, but an irreverent view. Thank you so much, Jemima Kelly, columnist of the FT. We will have you back on the show. Keep well.Jemima Kelly: Thank you, you too. This is a public episode.

Dans cet épisode du NFT Morning, (enregistré le 21 janvier) nous continuons à nous intéresser à l'actualité brûlante qui anime la crypto-sphère dont les tokens polémiques liés à la famille Trump, l'état de l'écosystème Ethereum, et les tendances globales du marché. Voici les points clés abordés dans cet épisode vibrant et provocateur :1. Un marché en effervescenceLes cryptos marquent un rebond significatif cette semaine, cependant, ce regain d'énergie est éclipsé par un nouvel acteur très controversé : le Trump Token, dont la valeur stagne autour des 40 $, propulsant sa capitalisation plus de 8 milliards de dollars. Ce token, lancé dans un climat de chaos assumé, alimente les spéculations et incarne le Far West actuel du marché crypto.2. Les tokens Trump : Entre satire et réalités financièresLe "Trump Token" a non seulement attiré les projecteurs, mais aussi vidé une partie des liquidités du marché crypto. Même les tokens Melania et d'autres dérivés de la "dynastie Trump" ont créé un phénomène spéculatif sans précédent.* Est-ce une tentative de "pump and dump" par l'entourage Trump ?* Comment ce token pourrait redéfinir les rapports entre régulation, présidence, et cryptos ?3. Ethereum dans la tourmente : Crise de confiance dans la FondationL'épisode revient sur la crise interne au sein de la Fondation Ethereum, vivement critiquée par des OG comme DCInvestor. Plusieurs griefs sont soulevés :* Manque d'innovation face à des concurrents comme Solana et Base.* Absence de roadmap claire et baisse d'attractivité pour les projets NFT et DeFi.* Lenteur dans l'adaptation technologique (notamment la réduction des frais de gaz).4. La régulation : Entre nécessité et chaos organiséL'épisode pose une question centrale : la crypto a-t-elle besoin d'une régulation stricte pour survivre ?* Les décisions récentes de l'administration Trump, comme la grâce présidentielle du fondateur de Silk Road, et les achats massifs de cryptos par son entourage, illustrent un environnement oligarchique.* La perspective de voir les États-Unis devenir un "paradis fiscal crypto", à la manière de Dubaï ou des îles Caïmans, est évoquée avec scepticisme.John et Rem appellent de leurs vœux une régulation équilibrée qui pourrait éviter que le secteur ne sombre dans un chaos permanent.5. NFT et tendances du momentAlors que les NFT semblent en perte de vitesse dans cette période de spéculation crypto, quelques collections tirent leur épingle du jeu, notamment :* Milady Maker, qui connaît un regain d'intérêt grâce à son lien avec l'art et l'enthousiasme de figures comme Vitalik Buterin.* Des rumeurs entourant Azuki et son futur token anime, bien qu'elles peinent à capter une attention significative dans le contexte actuel.Cet épisode illustre parfaitement les paradoxes et tensions qui définissent le paysage crypto actuel : un mélange d'opportunités, de chaos et d'interrogations sur l'avenir. Phrase clé de l'épisode"Le monde crypto ressemble de plus en plus à un Far West assumé, où la seule règle semble être : tout est possible jusqu'à ce que ça devienne légal."Liens utiles cités dans l'épisode* Cookie.fun : Un outil indispensable pour suivre les valeurs liées à l'IA sur les blockchains comme Solana et Base (cookie.fun).* Conférence ETHCC à Cannes : L'événement crypto à suivre en 2025, en lien avec les initiatives pro-crypto de la ville.* Compte Twitter de DCInvestor* World Liberty et ses tokens dérivés : Recherche des valeurs sur les plateformes comme CoinMarketCap ou CoinGecko.* Découvrez le replay vidéo de l'épisode This is a public episode.

**Alameda Dumps 143K WLD on Binance: Worldcoin Crash Imminent?**In a recent move that has sent shockwaves through the cryptocurrency market, Alameda Research, the sister company of bankrupt crypto exchange FTX, has transferred 143.77K Worldcoin (WLD) tokens to Binance, a leading centralized exchange (CEX). This transaction has raised concerns about the potential decline of Worldcoin, given Alameda's significant sales of WLD tokens in recent months.Founded by Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) and Tara Mac Aulay in 2017, Alameda Research has been at the center of several high-profile controversies. One of the most notable is the secret backdoor access to FTX customer funds, which was revealed during the bankruptcy proceedings of FTX in 2022. This scandal led to severe repercussions, including prison sentences for SBF and some of his associates, including Alameda CEO Caroline Ellison.The latest WLD token transfer is part of Alameda's efforts to liquidate its assets and repay debts. Since August 9, the company has deposited a substantial 2 million WLD tokens to Binance, valued at approximately $3.46 million. Despite these efforts, Alameda still holds a significant 23.01 million WLD tokens, worth over $47.6 million, which it may take over three years to fully liquidate at the current rate.The market reaction to these transactions has been mixed. Worldcoin's trading volume has fallen 17.48% in the past 24 hours to $210.35 million, with its market capitalization standing at $1.22 billion. The cryptocurrency is trading 82.36% below its all-time high of $11.82. However, CoinMarketCap data shows that WLD is currently trading at $2.08, having reached a daily high of $2.14 in the past 24 hours.The implications of these actions are far-reaching and highlight the complexities of the cryptocurrency market. As Alameda continues to navigate its financial challenges, the fate of Worldcoin remains uncertain. Whether this latest dump will indeed lead to a crash or merely be a blip on the radar remains to be seen.

Crypto Bloodbath - Black Monday 05th August Date: August 6, 2024 Guests: Markose Chentittha, RA George Overview: In this episode, we dive deep into the events surrounding the "Crypto Bloodbath" on Black Monday, where over $2.9 trillion was wiped out in just 24 hours, surpassing the losses of the 2008 financial crisis. We'll explore the impact on various markets, the geopolitical factors at play, and what this means for the future of cryptocurrency. Key Metrics: Over $500 billion disappeared from the crypto market. Bitcoin dominance: 56% (CoinMarketCap), 58% (CoinGecko). Tether USDT 24-hour volume: $184 billion. Ethereum market is down by over $100 billion. DeFi Total Value Locked (TVL) is down to $79 billion from $100 billion. Aave records $6 million in profit from fees. DEX metrics remain unchanged, indicating possible conversion to fiat. Discussion Points: Why the Crypto Bloodbath? Speculation of a US recession, despite media-driven narratives vs. factual data. Bureau of Labor Statistics and FOMC meeting reports indicate better-than-expected labor market conditions. Potential for the Federal Reserve to reduce interest rates, viewed positively for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency prices. Geopolitical Chaos: Benjamin Netanyahu's speech at Congress, followed by rising tensions between Iran, Israel, and Hezbollah. Japan's Nikkei Stock Average dives 4,451 points, surpassing the Black Monday crash of 1987. Global Market Reactions: South Korea has experienced the biggest stock market crash since 2008. India's stock market drops by 15 lakh crore ($181.38 billion). UK civil unrest and dissatisfaction with the Labour Party, which is not favourable toward Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. Bangladesh's PM resigns and escapes to India amid political turmoil. Corporate and Industry Impact: Upcoming earnings reports from Meta, Amazon, and Nvidia, with insights from Seeking Alpha and The Motley Fool. The long-term impact on the Bitcoin mining industry and new ATM installations. Justin Sun's $1 billion fund with promises of action yet to be realized. Metrics to Watch: Stablecoin volume fluctuations. Continued geopolitical developments in the Middle East. Follow IDF's Twitter account and Whale Alert (@whale-alert) for updates.

Telegram haalde in 2018 een recordbedrag op met hun ICO om vervolgens een eigen cryptomunt te ontwikkelen. Het ging om een bedrag van maar liefst 1.7 miljard dollar. Daarmee staan ze op nummer twee van de allergrootste ICOs ooit, met op nummer een EOS die 4.1 miljard dollar heeft opgehaald. Echt soepel ging de ontwikkeling bij Telegram niet. Ze werden door de SEC onder druk gezet om te stoppen met hun crypto project. Uiteindelijk gaf de Amerikaanse rechter de SEC gelijk en moest Telegram hun crypto ontwikkeling staken. Toch was dit niet het einde van Toncoin. De geschreven code was open-source, waardoor The Open Network Foundation dit crypto project kon door ontwikkelen. De populariteit van TON is de afgelopen maanden enorm gestegen, waardoor ze nu zelfs op positie negen staan op Coinmarketcap. Waar komt deze populariteit vandaan? Verder kwam er opmerkelijk nieuws van Ark. Deze vermogensbeheerder biedt momenteel een Bitcoin ETF aan, en het was ook de bedoeling dat ze samen met 21Shares binnenkort een Ether ETF gingen aanbieden. Plots trekt Ark zijn handen van deze Ethereum ETF. Zo vertelde de CEO van Ark (Cathie Wood) dat ze helemaal niks verdienen met hun Bitcoin ETF. De hoofdreden hiervan is dat meerdere partijen met elkaar concurreren op lage transactiekosten. Het lijkt er dan ook op dat deze concurrentie ook plaats gaat vinden bij de ETH ETF. Is het goed nieuws of slecht nieuws voor de consument dat deze fees zo laag zijn? De lage transactiekosten waren voor Cathie Wood in ieder geval een belangrijke reden om uit de nieuwe ETF te stappen, want de verwachting is dat zij hier niks aan verdient. Ondanks dat de SEC zijn goedkeuring heeft gegeven voor de Ether ETF, moeten we nog even wachten voor deze wordt aangeboden. Weten we ongeveer wanneer we hem kunnen verwachten? Dit alles bespreken we met co-host Jacob Boersma.

By Selva Ozelli SNPIT is a groundbreaking snap-to-earn blockchain platform that allows photographers to monetize their photography by creating NFT's and selling them. Developed by Gallusys and published by Zeal Nova, SNPIT has garnered significant attention and success in Japan. SNPIT a blockchain solution for photography SNPIT taps into the contemporary habit of frequent photography by allowing photographers to earn rewards for their work by creating NFTs. Tokenizing photography is the practice of creating and selling unique digital editions of photographs as NFTs on blockchain platforms like SNPIT. These NFTs can include anything from fine art prints to press photos, to photos of art work and they are often accompanied by exclusive content like videos or audio recordings. A photographic NFT is more than just an expensive jpeg or a digital license allowing a collector to share photographer's art freely. It is a digital asset and photographer's proof of provenance traceable to the photographer at its origin on the blockchain. Since its beta launch in September 2023 after the NFT market boom, the SNPIT platform has garnered immense attention. Within a mere 21 hours, SNPIT completely sold out its collection of 10,000 Camera NFTs priced at 150 $MATIC each. In the US, on June 5 and then again on November 20, 2023, the Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC') named Polygon's $MATIC as an 'unregistered security' involved in the digital asset trading on the Binance and Kraken crypto exchanges. Since then, CoinMarketCap's data revealed that $MATIC's price dropped considerably. This swift sell-out of NFTs in exchange for $MATIC in Japan, underscores the platform's rising popularity and the considerable interest in its unique features. SNIPIT is now expanding globally to introduce its innovative features to new markets focusing on Korea, MENA, and English-speaking regions Website hopefully with regulatory compliance in each new jurisdiction as the company expands globally following the tokenized collectibles trend. Toshiyuki Otsuka, the visionary CEO and founder of SNPIT, explained "SNPIT transcends being just an app; it's a movement empowering users to transform everyday moments into valuable assets. Our successful debut in Japan validates our vision, and we are excited to introduce SNPIT to a global audience. We firmly believe that our innovative blend of lifestyle and GameFi, powered by DePIN technology, will resonate with users worldwide, and we remain committed to expanding our influence." Strategic partnerships have been instrumental in enhancing SNPIT's visibility and attracting a diverse user base. Recently, SNPIT has launched the "World Repository," a photo database leveraging DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network) technology, allowing users to upload photos with precise timestamps and location data. The "World Repository" aims to revolutionize how we document, share, and use visual data, fostering a more connected and informed world by enhancing map services with detailed area information. By inviting global contributions, the "World Repository" securely stores and makes these photos accessible worldwide. The database supports various applications, including cultural heritage restoration, metaverse content creation, environmental conservation, and generative AI training. For example, photographers could celebrate World Environment Day on June 5th hosted by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia with theme of land restoration, desertification and drought resilience by uploading their photos of the desert from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to the World Repository. Or photographers can celebrate World Oceans Day on June 8th, hosted in-person at the UN Headquarters in New York and broadcast digitally live worldwide with a theme Awaken New Depths by uploading photos from the UNESCO OCEAN DECADE TIDES OF CHANGE WAVES OF HOPE ART SHOW hosted by Art on the Ave NYC at Fulton Center of art work of artists: Alfons Rodriguez (Melting A...

În această nouă ediție audio a Upgrade 100 Tech Leaders Talk fondatorul Upgrade 100 Dragoș Stanca l-a invitat la un schimb de idei pe Felix Crisan, co-fondator Netopia Payments și Ronin, head of research la MultiversX, expert fintech & blockchains, investitor în startupuri tech. Pretextul “la zi” a fost legat de Bitcoin halving - dar discuția generală s-a axat pe explorarea ideilor despre o lume în care vom vedea o adopție tot mai largă a conceptelor web3. Cum va arăta bankingul și business-ul în general, care ar fi consecințe sociale, politice, culturale? Felix Crișan e o combinație rar întâlnită de antreprenor tech “clasic”, care a co-fondat una dintre principalele companii fintech din România (alături de Antonio Eram) și anume Grupul Netopia (achiziționat în 2023 de Innova Capital), dar care e un player activ și în zona crypto / blockchains. Nu e însă un promotor irațional al acestui spațiu, ci un expert cumpătat și foarte atent la nuanțe. Câteva dintre întrebările pe care i le-am adresat: Predicții despre adopția Web3 În ce etapă crezi că ne aflăm din punct de vedere al stucturii si evoluției economico-financiare actuale? În cât timp vor iesi din faza teoretică sau de nisă principii diferite de funcționare a economiei, a sistemului bancar si poate chiar statelor - si ce considerăm azi “normal” si “final” va fi înlocuit? Va fi? Ce sanse sunt - si cât va dura procesul? Despre Bitcon Ce e Bitcoin Halving șii de ce e un eveniment important. Care e predicția legată de evoluția prețului principalei cryptomonede de pe plan global. Ce a adus nou cel de-al 4-lea halving, care sunt evenimentele de remarcat și de ce ne-ar păsa: de ce e important pentru cei interesați de acest spațiu, de ce ar putea fi interesant si pentru cei care nu sunt interesați de acest spațiu? Cine a câstigat, cine a pariat greșit în acest halving, de ce? Ce explicații sunt pentru variațiile semnificative de preț ale Bitcoin înainte de halving, de la zona 40k la zona 60-70k USD. Ce a urma? Despre Bitcoin și adopția graduală în main stream. Despre Bitcoin ETFs. Despre aparenta contradicție: suporterii spațiului sunt în general mai degrabă libertarieni sau adesea anarho-capitaliști dar totuși doresc și recunoasterea de la instituții guvernamentale centralizate. Viața crypto dincolo de Bitcoin Doar pe CoinMarketCap sunt peste 9.700 de proiecte listate. Cum separăm proiectele făcute pentru îmbogățirea inițiatorilor de proiecte valide ce analizează un expert când decide să investească? Despre implicarea în MultiversX ca Head of Research - care sunt cele mai importante avantaje ale ecosistemului dezvoltat la Sibiu, ce milestones s-au mai atins, ce e admirabil la proiect, cum e versus altele, de ce crede în el și nu în altele? Ce alte proiecte din domeniu - în afară de Bitcoin și Multiversx admiră și de ce? Despre blockchains, în general De ce tehnologiile blockchain pot avea un impact major în modul în care va funcționa lumea, în viitor? De ce nu au, deja? Ce le împiedică? Care sunt aplicabilitățile cele mai importante ca impact în viețile noastre, dincolo de partea de plăți și bani. Cum poate un blockchain deveni o “masină a adevărului” care să ne scape de haosul informațional din era Web2? Despre bani digitali și blockchains “private” - ce părere are, pro/cons. Cum pot folosi statele zona crypto și blockchains, cum ar trebui să folosească? Despre banking, azi Apar concepte ajustate, neobanking, elemente din zona web3 (apropo si de lansarea SALT Bank cu “fondatori” ca primi utilizatori) Care sunt principalele probleme ecosistemice “de rezolvat” în mediul de banking și business tradițional? Despre explozia A.I. + Visual Computing + Robotics AI, Visual Computing, Robotics. Perfect storm? Cum vede etapa în care suntem - temeri? Doar optimism? Un viitor guvernat de tehnologie, Network States etc sau va urma opusul? Sau si, si? Resurse adiționale și educaționale Recomandări de cărți, podcasts, resurse pentru continuarea explorării si auto-educare.

In recent news, if you are watching CoinMarketCap and following Cardano, you would have seen that Toncoin (TON) has flipped Cardano and pushed it into the number 10 spot. For some who are only just discovering TON, we look into how this crypto got a higher market cap than one of the biggest Layer-1 blockchains in the space. From analysis, whales hold most of TON, with the top 100 holders holding over 90% of the circulating supply of TON. This opens it up to market manipulation and wash trading.

Après une année 2023 très lucrative pour le marché des cryptomonnaies, l'année 2024 s'annonce encore plus folle pour ce secteur. Et pour cause, le Bitcoin vient d'atteindre son cours le plus élevé à plus de 70 000 dollars… un cours qui pourrait même encore s'envoler dans les mois à venir.Le fait de voir le Bitcoin dépasser son record historique de plus de 60 000 dollars que beaucoup pensaient ne jamais revoir, et bien cela a étonné plus d'un observateur. D'autant que ces derniers jours, le cours du jeton s'est même maintenu aux alentours des 70 000 dollars ! Evidemment la tendance a sans doute bougé au moment où vous écoutez ce podcast, mais début mars, il s'agissait d'un moment d'histoire pour les cryptos. Et si le Bitcoin impressionne, c'est en réalité tout l'écosystème des cryptomonnaies qui s'est finalement relevé de la terrible année 2022, marquée d'abord par la chute de la crypto LUNA, puis par la fermeture de FTX, qui était au moment de sa faillite la seconde plus grande plateforme au monde après Binance. C'est ainsi que la capitalisation globale du marché des cryptomonnaies a été multipliée par trois depuis décembre 2022, atteignant à ce jour selon le site CoinMarketCap les 2 620 milliards de dollars. D'ailleurs, un événement fait grandement parler : le halving, attendu pour la mi-avril, avec une récompense pour chaque bloc miné passant à ce moment de 6,25 bitcoins à 3,125 bitcoins. En claire, beaucoup espèrent ce qu'on appelle un « bull run », ce qui correspond à une explosion rapide des prix suite à ce halving. Ça c'est déjà vu dans le passer, et beaucoup espère que l'histoire se répète dans les semaines à venir.Une autre nouvelle incite les investisseurs à l'optimisme : les ETF Ethereum. À l'image des ETF Bitcoin, acceptés par la Securities and Exchange Commission, me gendarme financier américain le 10 janvier dernier, des ETF Ethereum, qui donc concerneraient la deuxième plus grosse crypto, sont en développement. Et si le régulateur financier américain ne cesse de repousser sa réponse, il sera dans l'obligation d'officialiser sa position le 23 mai prochain. Si l'autorisation était finalement accordée, il se pourrait ainsi que l'Ethereum connaisse le même genre d'afflux d'argent qui a suivi le lancement des ETF Bitcoin. Ces derniers sont en effet une véritable réussite actuellement du côté des États-Unis. À leur lancement il y a deux mois, ils représentaient 30 milliards de dollars. Deux mois plus tard, avec la hausse des cours et l'achat de nouveaux bitcoins, ils représentent déjà 50 milliards de dollars. Ce qui a évidemment aidé à pousser les prix vers le haut.

På en kvart får du veta hur kryptovalutan, som började som ett alternativ till den traditionella ekonomin, nu är på väg att bli en del av den. Med Henning Eklund, techreporter på SvD.

Bitcoin is in the news, and there's an amazing rush on cryptocurrencies and seemingly a new coin coming out every day. So it's becoming more obvious that we're in a bubble. But what's the real future of cryptocurrencies? Jason Hartman talks to Tama Churchouse, co-founder of Churchouse Publishing Limited and lead cryptocurrency analyst at Stansberry Churchouse Research, about what's going on in the world of cryptocurrency. Tama explains the differences between things like Bitcoin and Etherium, and the two look into what the government's future role in cryptocurrency will look like.

08.18.23 - Weekly Crypto ReviewWelcome back everyone, it's Friday August eighteenth, twenty three, and this is your weekly Crypto review. Here are some highlights to bring you up to speed… On Thursday, bitcoin fell 7.2% in its biggest one-day drop since November 2022 when FTX exchange collapsed. Investors sold $489 million in bitcoin futures over a 24-hour period, the largest single-day liquidation since June 2022, according to data provider Coinalyze. It's our opinion, the dip is most likely due to big movement in China markets, and potentially Blackrock and other large players, pushing the prices down, in order to buy low to pump future ETF positions. The New York Times is contemplating legal action against OpenAI, the organization behind ChatGPT. The crux of the dispute lies in copyright concerns surrounding the use of the newspaper's content. This is a contemporary theme MVMT Media will be tracking and repotting on more in the future. Coinbase, the largest crypto exchange in the U.S., announced on Wednesday that it obtained regulatory approval to offer crypto futures trading services to eligible clients in the country. The Shiba Inu (SHIB) token launched its layer-2 scaling solution, Shibarium, on the Ethereum blockchain on Thursday, but US$1.7 million worth of ETH was stuck on the Shibarium bridge, according to on-chain intelligence firm PeckShield, leading an over 7% drop in SHIB's price. Binance announced the shutdown of its crypto payment service, Binance Connect, on Wednesday. Previously known as “Bifinity,” Binance Connect was a fiat-to-crypto payment ramp for the exchange, allowing users to buy cryptocurrencies through Mastercard and Visa. XRP, the fifth largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, dropped 20.09% to US$0.505 after the SEC was granted the request to file an interlocutory appeal in its lawsuit against Ripple Labs. Litecoin, the world's 15th largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, fell 21.65% to US$65.12, as part of a broader downward movement in the crypto market. The global crypto market capitalization stood at US$1.06 trillion on Friday at 9:00 p.m. in Hong Kong, down by more than US$100 billion over the past week, CoinMarketCap data shows.
