President Trump on Friday said he's considering issuing rebate checks for Americans based on the billions in new tariff revenue collected by his administration. Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) has introduced legislation to provide $600 tariff rebates to almost all Americans and to their dependent children, a proposal that would give a family of four $2,400.~This episode is sponsored by iTrust Capital~iTrustCapital | Get $100 Funding Reward + No Monthly Fees when you sign up using our custom link! ➜ https://bit.ly/iTrustPaul00:00 Intro00:17 Sponsor: iTrust Capital00:33 Why Doge Dividend Failed00:59 Tariff revenue Incoming01:43 Total Revenue Collected02:20 Trump Tariff Rebate: Media Reaction03:46 Josh Hawley Drafts Bill04:12 Economic Cost04:37 Investing $1,200 in Gold & Nvidia Stocks05:05 Bitcoin Hype over?05:45 XRP & Staked Ethereum06:06 Tokenized Stocks in 5 Years06:28 Solana Staked = Millionaire06:56 Tokenized Stocks on Solana07:20 Leveraged Crypto Plays07:34 XRP Leveraged Demand08:50 What Did Americans Buy with Checks?09:44 Dogecoin10:11 The Next Dogecoin?10:39 $PENGU Hail Mary11:20 Stablecoin APY Yields12:10 What would you do?12:35 outro?#Crypto #XRP #Bitcoin~$600 Tariff Rebate Check!

De koers van Bitcoin blijft opvallend stabiel rond de 118.000 dollar. Dat is slechts een paar procent onder het recordniveau, maar het zorgt ook voor een tamme markt. De echte beweging zit deze week opnieuw bij altcoins. Ethereum springt eruit, geholpen door het positieve sentiment dat volgde op de Amerikaanse stablecoinwet. Ook Solana, Dogecoin en XRP lieten flinke plussen zien, maar vielen in de nacht van woensdag op donderdag ook stevig terug. Voor Ethereum lijkt bovendien een nieuwe trend te ontstaan. Waar eerder vooral Bitcoin door bedrijven werd opgekocht, zien we nu ook grote en kleine partijen die Ethereum toevoegen aan hun balans. Sharplink Gaming, een relatief onbekende Amerikaanse speler, bezit inmiddels 360.000 Ether, goed voor zo’n 1,3 miljard dollar. Daarnaast is begin deze week The Ether Machine aangekondigd, een groep investeerders die in één klap wil beginnen met 400.000 Ether. Omdat het moet via beursgenoteerde voertuigen, kunnen alleen beleggers met een sterke maag mee in deze rit: de aandelenkoersen van dit soort bedrijven zijn nóg volatieler dan de cryptomarkt zelf. Tegelijkertijd gaat Michael Saylor onvermoeibaar door met het uitbreiden van zijn Bitcoinbezit. Zijn bedrijf Strategy – voorheen Microstrategy – koopt structureel nieuwe bitcoin door aandelen uit te geven. Daarnaast heeft hij een reeks nieuwe financiële producten gelanceerd, met namen als Strike, Strife, Stride en Stretch. Die leveren hem wekelijks tientallen tot honderden miljoenen aan kapitaal op, waarmee hij vervolgens nóg meer bitcoin kan kopen. Tot slot is er aandacht voor de opkomst van quantumcomputers. Als zulke krachtige machines werkelijkheid worden, kunnen ze de beveiliging van oude Bitcoin-adressen ondermijnen. Vooral de bekende miljoen bitcoin van Satoshi Nakamoto zou dan kwetsbaar zijn. Ontwikkelaar Jameson Lopp pleit daarom voor maatregelen: kwetsbare adressen blokkeren voor inkomende transacties en tegoeden uiteindelijk bevriezen. Zijn voorstel stuit op stevige kritiek, omdat het raakt aan het principe dat munten – hoe gevaarlijk ook – nooit mogen worden aangeraakt zonder toestemming. Toch groeit de consensus dat er nu al moet worden nagedacht over oplossingen, voor het geval quantumdreiging realiteit wordt. Deze week in de CryptocastWe hebben het over een verse trend in de cryptowereld: bedrijven die massaal Ethereum inslaan, volgens het voorbeeld van Michael Saylor van Microstrategy. Inderdaad: met geleend geld geen Bitcoin, maar Ether kopen. Daarvoor is Jasper Oelers te gast, mede-oprichter van beleggingsplatform De Lange Termijn. Hij volgt alle obscure bedrijfjes die dit nu al doen. Co-host is Raoul Esseboom. Met Daniël Mol bespreken we elke week de stand van de cryptomarkt.

In this episode of Macro Mondays, James Todd & Edward Hayden-Briffett unpack a high-stakes week in global markets; where rising bond yields, China's deepening economic slump, and Trump's provocative economic rhetoric have stirred volatility across assets. As fears of stagflation hit the UK, and the tech rally pushes into bubble territory, markets are bracing for unpredictable shifts ahead. 

Kanyi Maqubela's journey is nothing short of extraordinary—from fleeing apartheid South Africa as an infant, to living in a homeless shelter in New York City, to becoming a venture capitalist in Silicon Valley. As managing partner at Kindred Ventures, Maqubela sits at the intersection of culture, finance, and technology. In this episode, he talks with Scott McGrew about why he believes crypto has already succeeded—even if it doesn't look the way early critics expected.Maqubela argues that value isn't just stored in physical assets or spreadsheets—it can also be stored in memes. Whether it's gold, real estate in Las Vegas, or Dogecoin, he suggests that cultural momentum and shared belief can give something staying power and real economic weight. “Mimetic value is value,” he says, making the case that virality itself is a form of capital.This conversation explores why the blockchain matters, how meme coins might be more serious than they seem, and why the next generation is right to question the financial systems they inherited. It's a provocative look at the future of value—and the stories we tell to justify it.

De prijs van Bitcoin is weer flink gestegen en lijkt een nieuwe fase van de bullmarkt in te luiden. Begin deze week piekte de koers op 123.000 dollar en hoewel de munt iets terugzakte, was het herstel snel. Dat duidt op stevige vraag en weinig geduld bij kopers. Ook altcoins profiteren mee: Ethereum steeg 20 procent, XRP 25 procent, Dogecoin 17 procent en Solana 10 procent. Kleinere tokens lieten stijgingen tot wel 75 procent zien. Veel van die stijging lijkt speculatief, maar het laat vooral zien dat beleggers weer risico durven nemen. De Amerikaanse crypto-ETF’s varen ook wel bij het positieve sentiment. Bitcoinfondsen zagen een dagelijkse instroom van honderden miljoenen. Marktleider BlackRock bezit inmiddels meer dan 720.000 Bitcoin, goed voor ongeveer 80 miljard dollar. Opmerkelijk is dat het bedrijf meer verdient aan zijn Bitcoinfonds dan aan de S&P500-ETF, een van de grootste beleggingsproducten ter wereld. Ook de Ethereum-ETF’s laten eindelijk leven zien: met een nieuwe instroompiek staat het totaal aan beheerd vermogen nu op 11 miljard dollar. Tegelijkertijd is het ‘cryptoweek’ in het Amerikaanse congres, met stemmingen over drie wetsvoorstellen. De CLARITY-act moet helderheid geven over welke tokens onder effectenwetgeving vallen, de ANTI-CBDC-act moet een digitale dollar vanuit de overheid definitief blokkeren, en de GENIUS-act regelt het juridische kader voor stablecoins. Over die laatste wet ontstond tumult. Een groep MAGA-republikeinen verzette zich tegen de wet omdat zij vreesden dat de centrale bank alsnog een eigen stablecoin zou kunnen uitbrengen. Na een gesprek met Donald Trump draaiden elf van de twaalf zich echter om, waardoor de wet nu alsnog op voldoende steun kan rekenen. De Amerikaanse cryptosector bereidt zich ondertussen voor op de tussentijdse verkiezingen van 2026. In de vorige campagne gaven belangengroepen als Fairshake honderden miljoenen aan zowel Republikeinse als Democratische kandidaten. Inmiddels is er weer een oorlogskas van 141 miljoen dollar opgebouwd, mede dankzij een donatie van Coinbase. De sector lijkt dus opnieuw stevig in te zetten op politieke invloed. Tot slot blijkt dat de Verenigde Staten geen 200.000 maar slechts 29.000 Bitcoin in bezit hebben. Dat kwam aan het licht na een openbaarmakingsverzoek van een journalist. Trump had eerder aangekondigd die strategische reserve te willen behouden. De vraag is nu of hij zal proberen de ontbrekende munten alsnog aan te kopen. Bitcoin noteerde woensdagavond warrempel een nieuwe recordkoers: iets boven de 112.000 dollar. Inmiddels is de koers iets teruggezakt. Opvallend is dat daar geen échte retailhype omheen hangt. De vraag naar Bitcoin lijkt vooral te komen van bedrijven die massaal bitcoin inslaan voor op hun balans. Opmerkelijk is de aankoop van 70 miljoen dollar aan Bitcoin door designplatform Figma – zonder grote aankondiging of ronkend persbericht. Het lijkt steeds normaler te worden voor Amerikaanse bedrijven om in Bitcoin te stappen. Ethereum en XRP boekten deze week een winst van zo’n 10 procent. In Europa heeft de Spaanse grootbank BBVA een primeur. Als eerste grote Europese bank lanceert het een crypto-platform voor klanten. Via de bankapp kunnen gebruikers nu Bitcoin en Ethereum kopen en bewaren. De stap volgt na eerdere experimenten in Turkije en Zwitserland en betekent dat BBVA zich in eigen land profileert als koploper op het gebied van digitale assets. De bank spreekt de ambitie uit om in de toekomst ook stablecoins, getokeniseerde obligaties en fondsen aan te bieden. De Europese cryptowetgeving, bekend als MiCAR, speelt hierbij een belangrijke rol. Omdat banken als BBVA al onder streng financieel toezicht staan, kunnen ze relatief eenvoudig instappen. In Nederland blijft het vooralsnog stil: alleen Bunq biedt crypto aan, al zijn de kosten daar relatief hoog. Verder viel er iets bijzonders te zien op het Bitcoin-netwerk: een oude wallet met tachtigduizend Bitcoin, ter waarde van zo’n 8 miljard dollar, werd na meer dan een decennium weer actief. De munten dateren uit 2011, toen Bitcoin nog een nicheproject was. Op sociale media wordt gespeculeerd dat deze coins in handen zijn van Roger Ver, ook wel bekend als 'Bitcoin Jesus'. Hij raakte in ongenade na een scheuring binnen de bitcoingemeenschap en zit momenteel vast in Spanje wegens belastingontduiking. De munten lijken niet direct richting een beurs te zijn gestuurd, wat erop wijst dat ze vooralsnog niet verkocht worden. Mogelijk zijn ze enkel verplaatst naar een veiliger en nieuwer type adres. Deze week in de CryptocastEen gesprek met Ramon Korpel, over zijn project Bitcoin Babies. Hij steunt een groep moeders in Kenia met iedere week een kleine hoeveelheid bitcoin, terwijl hij hen én lokale ondernemers wat bijbrengt over de digitale munt. En hij gebruikt daarvoor het lighting network, de supersnelle tweede laag bovenop bitcoin. Co-host is Jacob Boersma. Met Daniël Mol bespreken we elke week de stand van de cryptomarkt.

The token for the Ethereum layer-2 blockchain, Arbitrum, gained 17% over the day amid speculation that the network will announce a partnership with US trading platform Robinhood Markets Inc. on Monday. Robinhood posted to X on Sunday that Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, Robinhood Crypto general manager Johann Kerbrat, and A.J. Warner, the chief strategy officer at Offchain Labs — which created and develops Arbitrum — would come together for a fireside chat on Monday.#Crypto #Robinhood #Ethereum~Robinhood MAJOR Crypto Announcement!!

In this insightful episode of Kiln DeFi Rendez-Vous, host Laszlo Szabo, CEO & Co-Founder at Kiln, sits down with Duncan Moir, President of 21Shares, the world's largest crypto ETP issuer, for a deep dive into the explosive growth of Bitcoin ETFs, the evolving landscape of institutional crypto adoption, and what's next for digital asset investing.Less than a year after their launch, Bitcoin ETFs have captured nearly 70% of the trading volume of gold ETFs (GLD)—a staggering milestone that underscores the pent-up demand for crypto exposure in traditional finance. Duncan breaks down why this is just the beginning, with the $40 trillion US pension fund market still largely on the sidelines.The conversation explores how major players like Goldman Sachs are entering the space, why Ethereum ETFs haven't seen the same success as Bitcoin (yet), and the critical role of staking in ETPs—especially in Europe, where 21Shares has pioneered innovative products. Duncan shares his unique perspective on regulation, from the UK's recent shift allowing retail crypto ETNs to the SEC's cautious approach in the US.With over 40 crypto ETPs under its belt, 21Shares has become a bellwether for institutional crypto adoption. Duncan reveals how the company selects new assets, from blue-chip tokens to emerging altcoins, and why Dogecoin—often dismissed as a memecoin—has surprising institutional potential. He also discusses the growing intersection of traditional finance and on-chain assets, including the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA) like BlackRock's BUIDL money market fund.Before joining 21Shares, Duncan spent years in hedge funds and asset management, eventually leading Aberdeen's digital asset division and serving on the board of Hedera Hashgraph. He shares lessons from his journey, including how blockchain can streamline archaic financial systems and why crypto is maturing beyond speculative trading into a strategic portfolio allocation.PODCAST INFO:

Today, I want to explain to you why we don't only trade the forex market. We look at other markets as well. So let's talk about that more right now. Hey there, Forex Traders! It's Andrew Mitchem here at The Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 593. We don't only trade the Forex market. Now being called The Forex Trading Coach you would assume that we trade only the forex market. Well we used to. And that's because years ago all that was available to us were forex pairs. And like the GBP/USD and USD/JPY, USD/CHF, etc. the main pairs. And then over time more and more pairs. What were called exotics or minor pairs got added. Things like NZD/CAD and then other pairs got added as times gone on, like ZAR/JPY, things like that, some more and more have been added. And then years ago they introduced a couple of metals and we could trade gold and silver against the US. More metals now available. And then more recently we've got access to more metal markets. So example Gold and Silver against the Pound and against the Uen and against the Chinese Yuan and different crosses like that, but also more metals such as, Palladium and Platinum and Copper. We trade Indices, Commodities and Cryptos.   We can trade indices like the Nasdaq and different American markets and different Canadian and Swiss franc markets, Yen markets. We can trade, things like commodities. We can trade coffees and Cocoas. We can trade cryptos, Bitcoins and Ethereums, etc.. So the beauty of trading today on a platform such as MetaTrader 5 is that you have access to so many more markets. More trading opportunities for high quality patterns. And you could think of that and go, well that's just going to create more work. Andrew. No, not at all. What it does is it gives you the opportunity once you know what you're looking for, and once you have a strategy that you can scan through the markets really quick, it's giving you more and more opportunity to look for the pattern on a higher quality chart. So for example, years ago you might have said, well, this trade on the GBP/USD, it's okay. It doesn't quite fit my criteria but it's okay. And you might have taken that trade. Rightly or wrongly. Whereas now you've got the opportunity to scan through more and more markets. And so the way that we trade I don't particularly care what I trade. It's the pattern that I'm looking for. It's where has that candle formation appeared within the chart. Has it got room to move to? The profit target has the stop loss got protection? All these type of things that we look for. And so if I'm trading the pattern, I'm giving myself a very high probability chance of success, because I'm looking for only the highest quality patterns, regardless of the market or direction. So simply because I live in New Zealand, it doesn't mean I have to trade New Zealand dollar pairs more, or I have to trade the EUR/USD because it's the biggest traded forex pair. Not at all. Trades I have open right now on non-FX markets. As an example, I've got a a monthly chart trade on Cafaro, which is one of the coffee markets on the commodities. I've got two weekly chart trades open right now on Dogecoin and Solana.

First up, we plunged headlong into our unofficial Horror Olympics, pitting the recycled slasher spectacle Halloween H2O against the gore-fuelled insanity of Terrifier. Los, my co-host and fellow horror heathen, came in hot with his predictable picks: masked maniacs, jump scares on demand, and “classic” kills that he swears “stand the test of time.” Meanwhile, I defended my unorthodox torchbearers—Disturbia, that suburban teenage thriller where Shia LaBeouf proves you don't need a chainsaw to feel hunted, and Ready or Not, the wildly inventive house-of-cards satire where wedding night turns into lawn-chair carnage. I laid out my argument that clever setup and character-driven tension beat thirty seconds of gratuitous forehead-stabbing any day, and Los grudgingly admitted that yeah, maybe I'm onto something—though he reserves the right to scream “that's so 2004” in my face.Apple's WWDC: When “Liquid Glass” Means “Blinded by the Future”Next, we jumped into Apple's annual pep rally—WWDC 2025—where they unveiled “liquid glass” as if we all suddenly cranked our devices through Drano and into a Black Mirror episode. I recapped the parade of translucent iPhones and speculated that next year we'll be holding our MacBook Air by firelight, because who needs a screen when you can have “milky clarity”? We tore into how Siri is still a glorified paperweight despite promises of AI wizardry, and why the average consumer probably won't care until iOS 26 auto-transforms their phone into a sentient sidekick that orders pizza for them. Los and I marveled at Vision Pro's new “polar vortex mode,” which literally chills your eyeballs to deliver immersion—but at the cost of your retinas. Moral of the story: Apple might soon merge hardware and hallucination, but they still can't figure out why we ask Siri to set alarms and it replies “Good luck with that.”TikTok Ban Scare Round… Whatever This IsIn political theater news, yet another TikTok ban scare is slated for June 19th—cue the gnashing of teeth and frantic downloader guides. I explained why this one's more PR stunt than policy: no executive order on the horizon, just another Washington soundbite designed to keep us distracted while they debate farm subsidies and military spending. Rumor has it Elon Musk weighed in—between tweets about Dogecoin dips—but I assure you, the app empire isn't crumbling (yet). So don't uninstall: keep those 15-second dance routines and cat lip-syncs flowing.TikTok's Jay Renshaw: The “Chit” Series That Actually ChitsSpeaking of TikTok, I fell down the rabbit hole of Jay Renshaw's “Chit” series—videos titled things like “Golf Chit,” “Wedding Chit,” and my personal favorite, “Corporate Chit.” This guy somehow distills every cringe corporate ritual into sub-30-second vignettes that feel like airport bathroom graffiti come to life. I shared my top picks and why, if you need a crash course in humanity's most bizarre habits, this is your masterclass. Warning: you may start narrating your own life with dramatic “Chit” captions—totally normal.Wedding DJ Confessional: When Photographers Duel with CaffeineIn a rare “real life” detour, I recounted my latest gig—spinning tracks at a wedding reception where the photographer, fresh from a bout of over-caffeination, chugged three cans of Hard Mountain Dew thinking it was Sprite. I described the ensuing dad-dance chaos as his shutter finger trembled like a seismic sensor. The bride and groom thought it was performance art. I thought it was a liability. Congratulations to Deb and Kev for capturing every jittery shot of Uncle Bob's twerking meltdown.Joe Exotic for President? Biden's Surprising Pardon PitchOn the political front, we dove into Joe Biden's off-the-cuff suggestion to free Joe Exotic—and no, I'm not making this up for clicks. ..

Bitcoin beweegt deze week rond de 108.000 dollar. De koers deed het deze week goed, met een lichte terugval na het onduidelijke handelsakkoord tussen de VS en China. Daarmee lijkt een aanval op het eerdere koersrecord van 111.800 dollar nabij. Een duidelijke aanleiding voor de koersstijging deze week is er niet, maar de rust op de financiële markten en structurele aankopen door bedrijven – groot én klein – zorgen voor een stevige ondergrond. Ethereum presteert opvallend beter dan Bitcoin en daar speelt een ander verhaal op de achtergrond. Want er is beweging in ETF-land. De succesvolle beleggingsproducten voor Bitcoin en Ethereum krijgen mogelijk gezelschap van soortgelijke fondsen voor altcoins. Analisten van Bloomberg achten de kans op goedkeuring voor ETF’s rond onder andere Litecoin en Solana op 90 procent, nog dit jaar. Ook XRP, Dogecoin, Cardano, Polkadot, HBAR en Avalanche maken kans. De Amerikaanse beurswaakhond SEC zou deze projecten behandelen als ‘commodity’ in plaats van ‘security’. Dat betekent minder zware regelgeving en opent de deur voor bredere adoptie. Toch leidde het nieuws niet overal tot koersstijgingen. Alleen Solana veerde zichtbaar op, al staat de munt nog ver onder het niveau van enkele maanden geleden. Ethereum zelf kreeg ook een boost, doordat de SEC vermoedelijk ‘staking’ goedkeurt voor de ETF’s. Dit mechanisme is essentieel voor het functioneren van het netwerk, vergelijkbaar met mining bij Bitcoin, en levert rendement op. Daarmee zouden beleggers in de Ethereum ETF straks mogelijk een jaarlijkse ‘yield’ ontvangen. Dat maakt de producten aantrekkelijker voor institutionele partijen die op zoek zijn naar rendement binnen risicovolle beleggingscategorieën. Ook stablecoins maken vaart, met nieuws uit de hoek van grote techbedrijven. Apple werkt aan een samenwerking met USDC-uitgever Circle, Airbnb kijkt naar een integratie via Worldpay, en X (voorheen Twitter) onderzoekt opties met fintechbedrijf Stripe. Daarmee lijkt Big Tech zich steeds nadrukkelijker te positioneren rond digitaal geld. Circle zelf is sinds vorige week beursgenoteerd. Het aandeel opende op 31 dollar, maar is inmiddels verdrievoudigd in waarde. Daarmee wordt het bedrijf, dat zich volledig richt op stablecoins, gewaardeerd op ruim 25 miljard dollar. Transparantie en regelconformiteit zijn kernwaarden van het bedrijf, dat zich daarmee onderscheidt van concurrent Tether. Deze week in de CryptocastEen gesprek met Pim Swart en Remy van der Nagel over een Hyperliquid, een nieuw decentraal handelsplatform. Dat wint snel aan populariteit en de koers van de bijbehorende coin gaat ook rap. Sinds april van 10 dollar naar ruim 40 dollar opgelopen. Hyperliquid zou zomaar kunnen uitgroeien tot één van de supersterren van deze cryptocyclus, maar dan moet het wel zijn enorm ambitieuze beloftes waarmaken.

This week we talk about kidnappings, ransoms, and bitcoin.We also discuss crypto wealth, robberies, and memecoins.Recommended Book: The Status Game by Will StorrTranscriptIn 2008, a white paper published by someone writing under the pen name Satoshi Nakamoto proposed a method for making a decentralized asset class called a cryptocurrency that led to the creation of bitcoin, which was implemented and began trading in 2009.While there were other variations on this theme, and attempts to create something like a cryptocurrency previously, bitcoin is generally considered to be the first modern incarnation of this asset class, and its approach—using a peer-to-peer network to keep track of who owns what tokens on a publicly distributed ledger called a blockchain—led to the development of many copycats, and many next-generation cryptoassets based on similar principles, or principles that have been iterated in all sorts of directions, based on the preferences and beliefs of those assets' founders.In its early days, bitcoin didn't make much of a splash and was considered to be kind of an anomaly, mostly interesting to a very small number of people who speculated about alternative currencies and how they might be developed and implemented in the real world, but as of mid-May 2025, the global market cap for all cryptocurrencies is $3.39 trillion, bitcoin accounting for more than $2 trillion of that total.That said, there are tens of thousands of cryptocurrencies available, these days, though the majority of them have been formally discontinued or simply allowed to go fallow, becoming functionally inactive.That's partly the consequence of a surge in interest during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the price of bitcoin popping from just over $5,000 at the start of the pandemic to around $68,000 in late-2021.Bitcoin and most of the other crypto-assets that sprung up during that tumultuous period then collapsed when the US Federal Reserve hiked interest rates, intending to temper inflation, which had the knock-on effect of reining in risky bets on things like seed-level startups and alternative assets classes, like crypto—bitcoin dropped to less than $17,000 in 2023, partly as a result of that move—but as inflation levels cooled and investors started to look for assets that might pay out big time again, there was another wave of crypto-asset launches, especially of the ‘meme coin' variety, which basically means a crypto token that's launched either as a joke, or to try to make some money off something that's trending—the most famous meme coin is probably Dogecoin, which was originally released in 2013 as a joke, but then boomed in popularity and price during the pandemic.Through it all, and well before most people knew what bitcoin or cryptocurrencies were, Coinbase has served as a central pillar of the crypto-asset ecosystem.The company was founded in 2012 by a former Airbnb engineer as a crypto exchange: a place where you can swap crypto assets for other crypto assets, but importantly, where you can also sell those assets for real world money, or buy them for real world money.And that's what I want to talk about today, and more specifically a recent hack of Coinbase, and the potential implications of that hack.—In mid-May of 2025, Coinbase reported, in a legally required Securities and Exchange Commission filing, that their company was hacked, and that the hack may end up costing Coinbase between $180 and $400 million, all told.According to that filing, Coinbase received an email from the hacker on May 11, saying that they'd obtained a bunch of information about Coinbase customers and their accounts, alongside other Coinbase documentation related to their account management systems and customer service practices. The hacker demanded $20 million from the company, which the company refused to pay.Coinbase officials have been keen to note that passwords and private keys were not compromised in the hack, so the hackers couldn't just log into someone's account and empty their crypto wallets or the real-deal money they might be keeping there, but they did access names, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses, alongside the last four digits of some users' social security numbers, their government ID images, like drivers licenses and passports, and their account balances.All of which isn't as bad as passwords and private keys being stolen, but it's not good, either. The hackers, or people working with them, have reportedly been launching phishing attacks against some of the higher net-worth individuals whose information was stolen, those attacks—which usually involve tricking victims into divulging other information, like passwords—made a million times easier because the folks doing the attacks had that stolen information.What's more, and this isn't necessarily obvious from reading the pieces published about this hack, but it's important context surrounding all of this, people who have a lot of money in crypto-assets are increasingly likely to be targeted for other sorts of crimes, compared to people with a lot of wealth in conventional assets, like money, homes, and stocks.Case in point, in early May of this year, a trio of Florida teens kidnapped a man at gunpoint in Las Vegas, drove him to a remote desert area about an hour away, and then stole about $4 million in crypto and other digital assets, like NFTs.They apparently waited for him at his apartment complex and when he pulled up, they threatened him, and said they had his dad, and would kill him if he didn't get in their car, and then they got his account passwords and other information from him, once he was away from any possible help.In Canada, back in early November of 2024, the CEO of a crypto company based in Toronto was kidnapped during rushhour, forced into the kidnappers' vehicle and forced to pay a million dollars in ransom before he was released.According to a security firm that specializes in protecting wealthy people with crypto-assets, that CEO's kidnapping was the 171st instance of criminals using physical violence, including kidnapping, but also other types of robbery, to steal crypto assets; they also said there tend to be more such cases when the price of these assets is high.Well, the price of a bitcoin is high right now, more than $103,000 per coin, as of the day I'm recording this, and France and other Western European nations are seeing a spate of kidnappings of high net-worth crypto-holders, some of which have resulted in mutilation, as was the case with a 60-year-old man who was kidnapped in broad daylight, at 10:30am in Paris—four men in ski-masks pushed him into the back of a delivery van, and his kidnappers demanded his crypto-millionaire son pay a ransom; they cut off the older man's finger during the ordeal.The kidnappers demanded something like 5-7 million euros, which wasn't paid, and they were eventually captured by police. But law enforcement is seeing a lot of this sort of thing all over the world right now, people who made fortunes in crypto being kidnapped, and in some cases their friends and family, or partners, also being kidnapped, or kidnapped instead. Whatever the specifics, the person with the crypto-wealth is then hit up for a ransom.Often, the people being targeted are known to be wealthy because their wealth, their gains in this particular asset market, is publicized.The big concern amongst many people in the crypto-world right now, then, is that although the Coinbase hack didn't result in lost passwords or keys, the information that was stolen, including the balance of users' accounts, could make these users targets, giving anyone with access to this stolen data a list of people they might steal from, and information about where to find them, how to contact them, and how much they can probably hit them up for.On top of that, they can see who has had large balances in the past, how much cash they sold their holdings for, and who maybe previously had large holdings on Coinbase, but then transferred those assets to a private wallet—so even if they don't have large Coinbase balances, they possibly have large balances hidden on a harddrive somewhere.Crypto wealth is generally considered to be easier to steal, and to get away with said theft, because of its very nature; it's largely disconnected from traditional banking systems and many traditional banking regulations, and it's often simpler to launder crypto assets than real money, converting bitcoin into stable coins into other coins before then converting those assets into real money, for instance.So while Coinbase seems to be doing what they can to make their users whole, including paying back users whose information was lost in the breach, that information then used to phish them, successfully—so if you were conned out of money because the hackers got this information and then tricked you—Coinbase will pay you back what you lost.But it's not really possible to undo other, non-immediate damage, like the new level of threat some of these hacking victims maybe face, as the global economy gets weird, job security is iffy for many people in many industries, at best, and there's this list of people who seem to have plenty of money, that money held in more-stealable-than-usual assets, alongside what amounts to a map to where they can be found, and all sorts of information that paints an incomplete, but potentially leveragable, portrait of their lives.Show Noteshttps://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/0001679788/000167978825000094/coin-20250514.htmhttps://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/15/coinbase-says-hackers-bribed-staff-to-steal-customer-data-and-are-demanding-20-million-ransom.htmlhttps://techcrunch.com/2025/05/15/coinbase-says-customers-personal-information-stolen-in-data-breach/https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/24/magazine/crybercrime-crypto-minecraft.html?unlocked_article_code=1.Hk8.UV7K.VEEqHFsUu24g&smid=url-sharehttps://www.yahoo.com/news/florida-teens-kidnap-las-vegas-200918594.htmlhttps://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/kidnapping-toronto-businessman-cryptocurrency-1.7376679https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/may/04/french-police-investigate-spate-of-cryptocurrency-millionaire-kidnappingshttps://www.advisor.ca/investments/market-insights/the-reasons-behind-bitcoins-surge/https://www.statista.com/statistics/863917/number-crypto-coins-tokens/https://www.forbes.com/digital-assets/crypto-prices/?sh=c86585d24785https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coinbasehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptocurrencyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcoinhttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0378437122005696https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meme_coin This is a public episode.

In this insightful clip, Rashad Bilal, Troy Millings, and Ian Dunlap break down Tesla's recent, shocking earnings report—a staggering 71% drop in net income for Q1 2025. Despite falling vehicle deliveries, dipping automotive revenue, and mounting struggles in China, the U.S., and Europe, Tesla's stock price went up. How does that make sense?The hosts dig deep into the surprising market reaction, discussing the key reason for the stock surge: Elon Musk's claim that he'll be stepping back from his distractions (like Dogecoin and Starlink) and refocusing on Tesla. But is that enough to restore investor faith? The trio questions whether Musk's “I'll do better” pledge can truly turn things around—especially when Tesla's facing tough competition, technical stagnation, and missed milestones with vehicles like the Model Y and Cybertruck.Tune in for a candid conversation about CEO privilege, market psychology, and the future of Tesla as both a car company and a tech company. Is Tesla about to regain its edge, or are we witnessing the beginning of the end of its dominance? Drop your thoughts in the comments—do you think Tesla's bounce-back is sustainable, or is this just a temporary show of confidence in Elon? *Hashtags:* #Tesla #ElonMusk #Stocks #Investing #Earnings #EV #TeslaStock #RashadBilal #TroyMillings #IanDunlap #Finance #MarketAnalysis #TechNewsOur Sponsors:* Check out NerdWallet: https://www.nerdwallet.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

I am Right episode 2 The Doge and other issuesIn a more recent development, the U.S. government announced the formation of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) in January 2025. This initiative, led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, aims to streamline government operations and reduce wasteful spending. The department's acronym, DOGE, is a playful nod to the Doge meme and Dogecoin cryptocurrency. The Doge meme has left a lasting impact on internet culture, evolving from a simple image macro to influencing cryptocurrency and even inspiring governmental initiatives. #doge #dogememe #dogememes #cheems #cheemsmeme #dankmemes #memes #meme #memesdaily #funnydoge dogememe #memesdaily #dogecoin #bitcoin #cryptocurrency #cryptom #ethereum #btc #binance #blockchain #litecoin #investing #TrumpPlease follow us on Youtube,Facebook,Instagram,Twitter,Patreon and at www.gettinglumpedup.comhttps://linktr.ee/RobRossiGet your T-shirt at https://www.prowrestlingtees.com/gettinglumpedupAnd https://www.bonfire.com/store/getting-lumped-up/Subscribe to the channel and hit the like button This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/rob-rossi/support https://www.patreon.com/Gettinglumpedup

What do Moo Deng the pygmy hippo, social media sensation Hawk Tuah, and the President of the United States all have in common? They've all inspired highly valuable, highly volatile memecoins. The humble memecoin began as a sort of satirical send up of speculation in the crypto world. But it was a joke that soon became very real. In the decade since the launch of Dogecoin in 2013, a series of cultural shifts and technological leaps enabled an explosion in the number of new memecoins. And this memecoin explosion has not only minted millionaires but also led to hordes of unlucky investors and untold scams. On today's show, what's in a memecoin? How they went from a one-off joke to a speculative frenzy worth tens of billions of dollars?

And also, time to start learning, because these terms come out of a new financial ecosystem—the world of crypto, a market that started 15 years ago and is now worth about $3.3 trillion. This new world has caught the attention of none other than President Donald Trump. Since coming to office, Trump has appointed a crypto czar and floated the idea of a national crypto stockpile. And shortly Trump took office, he launched his own meme coin—as did Melania. Trump's coin has reportedly generated $100 million in trading fees so far. And to top it all off, Trump is taking calls from the biggest names in the business. One of whom is our guest today—Brian Armstrong. Brian is a 42-year-old San Jose native who changed the nature of commerce not only in America but all over the world. He co-founded a cryptocurrency platform called Coinbase in 2012. Now, it's the largest crypto exchange in the US. To some, he's doing something as revolutionary as building rocket ships to Mars. To others, he's growing an industry riddled with scammers, grifters, and criminals. Armstrong says those stories are the sideshow and that Bitcoin—or perhaps another cryptocurrency—will prove itself to be as essential as the dollar. Today on Honestly, Bari asks Brian why he thinks crypto is the way of the future, how he navigates eager regulators, why he's been so politically active, how MAGA's "America First" ethos gets along with the borderless, decentralized crypto zeitgeist, and if crypto is really as dangerous as some make it out to be. We also talk about the DOGE, his recent meeting with Trump, and how he once stuck his neck out against the far-left mob.
