For more than a month, Bitcoin has remained firmly above the $100,000 mark, which is a bullish accomplishment in and of itself. However, the fact that it has not been able to break above $110,000 with any degree of certainty is beginning to cause some concern. Bitcoin has retraced to $107,900 after reaching a peak just below its all-time high. It is currently stalling at significant resistance and may be losing momentum. Technically speaking, Bitcoin is still above three significant moving averages: the 50-day EMA ($105,750), the 100-day EMA ($103,011) and the 200-day EMA ($98,082), indicating that the overall trend…
Ethereum’s ether ETH$2,746.44 token, which has been in the shadows of bitcoin BTC$109,154.38 for a long time, is now becoming the new favorite.

Argentina’s anti-corruption office has cleared President Javier Milei of any wrongdoing related to his public promotion of the Libra crypto token, according to Bloomberg. The agency reportedly said on record that Javier didn’t break any laws when he posted about Libra on X in February, adding that the post was made in a personal capacity, didn’t involve federal resources, and didn’t violate any public ethics codes. That ruling officially ends the government’s internal investigation, though a federal court case is still ongoing and hasn’t been closed yet. The scandal started when Javier shared a message about Libra just hours after…
According to Conor Grogan, director at Coinbase, there are 50 million different crypto tokens in circulation today, a figure that highlights both innovation and speculation on the market. Grogan puts this in perspective: “That’s roughly 6,000 tokens for every listed U.S. stock or ETF. One token exists for every K–12 public school student in the United States. If someone tried to read every token name, one per second, it would take nearly 600 days nonstop.” There are 50 million different crypto tokens in circulation todayThat’s:-6,000 tokens for every listed US stock/ETF-1 token for every public school student in the US…

Over 30% of Bitcoin’s (BTC) circulating supply is now concentrated in the hands of just 216 centralized entities, according to the latest blockchain data from a Gemini and Glassnode report. The trend reflects both expanding institutional adoption and growing custodial centralization in the world’s largest cryptocurrency. The scale of this shift is striking. A decade ago, centralized exchanges collectively held just under 600,000 BTC for their users. Today the total amount of Bitcoin held across major institutional and custodial entities has surged to an estimated 6,145,207 BTC, a 924% increase over the past ten years.
