My bet on crypto is that its next breakthrough is not going to be when some new concept emerges in this space. But when it seeps in so deep that the common man will use it without even thinking about the technology behind it. #Crypto #Blockchain

Always good to see governments embracing Bitcoin with open arms. Hoping to see this level of acceptance in India as well. #Thailand #Crypto
🇹🇭 Thailand’s supreme court rules Bitcoin as legal property. • Clearer status for contracts and disputes. • Crypto has been regulated since May 2018. • 0% capital gains unchanged, valid until 2028.

You can manufacture narratives around gold and diamonds but you can’t manufacture more Bitcoin The 21 million hard-cap is the whole game ₿ #Bitcoin #BTC
Creating net-new gold with alchemy is becoming real. The lab grown diamond industry is growing rapidly. But you can’t invent anything that will increase Bitcoin supply. There will only ever be 21M.

One of the smartest designs that I’ve come across Reinvesting dividends into Bitcoin is an interesting way to bring #BTC into traditional portfolios without asking investors to change how they invest This is how adoption sneaks in #FranklinTempleton
JUST IN: 🇺🇸 $1.8 trillion asset manager Franklin Templeton files for S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 ETFs that automatically reinvest stock dividends into Bitcoin.

70% of the web running on the same language is wild when you really think about it. One weak spot and suddenly a huge part of the internet could be exposed. That’s not exactly what you’d call a great design. #PHP
Two critical vulnerabilities have been identified in PHP, a widely used programming language that powers websites and web applications. These vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619) could allow malicious cyber actors to remotely execute code in PHP core, potentially compromising sensitive data and networks. The FBI urges organizations to take the following steps now: ➡️ If an immediate update is not feasible it is recommended that organizations take the system offline until it can be fully mitigated. ➡️ Immediately update affected PHP installations following the guidance on php.net. Inventory where PHP runs in your environment, prioritizing internet-facing systems and vendor products that bundle PHP. ➡️ Monitor web servers for suspicious activity, including PHP processes unexpectedly launching command shells or downloading files. Ensure appropriate process-monitoring capabilities are in place to help identify potential exploitation. ➡️ If you find signs of compromise, isolate affected systems, preserve your web server and PHP logs, and report it to your local FBI field office or ic3.gov. Those reports help us identify the actors involved and warn other organizations before they become victims. For the latest information, follow PHP’s announcement on php.net, CERT-EU Security Advisory 2026-018, and CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.

Always interesting to see where the conversation around fiat is heading when crypto is back at making headlines. The contrast is hard to miss. #BullMarket #crypto

India doesn’t just need more startups. It needs to create more of what it currently relies on others for. That’s why this push into deep tech matters. AI, semiconductors, quantum, robotics… and blockchain. Blockchain deserves a place in this conversation too. Not because every problem needs a blockchain but because this tech can give India ways to build better digital infrastructure without depending on foreign platforms. The next phase of India’s tech story should be about building the technology the world uses… and blockchain deserves a spot in that. #India #Web3 #blockchain

Great insights by @jerallaire Progress isn’t stopping, regardless. Global Crypto market growth rate is projected to increase from USD 8.47 billion in 2026 to USD 27.02 billion by 2034, exhibiting a CAGR of 15.60%. The momentum is only getting stronger.
BREAKING: Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire just laid out the reality after CLARITY's failure. "If you remember, the GENIUS Act failed cloture too. And then weeks later it passed." Still hopeful the bill gets another shot. Same day, he launched Arc, Circle's own mainnet. BlackRock, DTCC, ICE, Visa, Mastercard as founding validators. No crypto-native firms among them. Called it "one of the biggest launches" in Circle's history. Timing wasn't a coincidence. His actual message: policy is "responsive to what's actually happening in the real economy." Progress "isn't stopping" regardless of how the Senate vote landed. Here's the mechanism now filling the gap. SEC Chair Atkins: "With or without legislation, we will act decisively within the SEC's statutory authority." JPMorgan's own read: agency rules can offer guardrails, but they're "less durable than legislative statutes." A future administration can repeal them without Congress. The final vote: 50 to 49. Not a landslide against it. One vote short. Allaire's bet is simple. Even a failed statute doesn't stop institutions from building the rails now, with or without Washington's signature.

Big week ahead for stocks and crypto 👀 Monday 🇺🇸 Markets reopen after AI leaders call for slower development. Tuesday 🇺🇸 CLARITY Act procedural vote in the Senate. Wednesday 🇺🇸 Fed interest rate decision. Thursday 🇬🇧 Bank of England interest rate decision. Friday 🇯🇵🇺🇸 Japan’s CPI report, BOJ interest rate decision and quarterly U.S. options expiration. Which event will move markets the most?

Fixed Math> Centralised Money Management BlackRock published an official whitepaper on Bitcoin titled ‘Re-Underwriting Bitcoin: Still a Portfolio Diversifier After the Pullback?’ In this report, the Wall Street giant made a point that traditional finance can no longer ignore: Bitcoin is a hedge against the exploding U.S. debt. As currency devaluation is on the rise and global debt is hitting record highs, BlackRock’s data highlights these critical points: -Over the last decade, Bitcoin’s price has risen right alongside global money printing. As fiat currency loses value, fixed-supply assets like Bitcoin absorb the value. -When governments print money to pay off debt, holding an asset with a fixed supply is a basic move to protect your holdings. -Bitcoin sometimes drops with traditional stocks during short-term panics but over long cycles, it follows its own path. For years, Wall Street treated crypto like a speculative toy to trade. Now, they are using it for the exact reason it was built: protection against fiat dilution. Hard-coded limits will always beat endless currency creation. #Bitcoin #BlackRock #TradFi

This is actually true! Apply this to anything, literally anything Playing it too safe is a huge risk in itself No risk, no reward!
you can't afford to not understand this

Fingers crossed🤞 Hope the CLARITY Act gets past the finish line soon! #CLARITY #ClarityAct
September is going to be huge for Crypto. We have the CLARITY Act. vote in a couple weeks, possible surprise rate cuts, and a US government that openly stated they are going to be buying Bitcoin. Everyone is going to be talking about Crypto soon. Retail is going to get curious and start to flood into your coins. Whoever still believes and kept accumulating is going to get rich af.

Great insights by @jvisserlabs Bitcoin’s scarcity is built into the code. It isn’t a feature on the side. 21 million.. and that’s it. #Bitcoin #BTC
"The debasement trade is just a narrative." — Jordi Visser, 22 Research (ex-Weiss CIO) @jvisserlabs "Scarcity is becoming something that people want to invest in." "More people will save in Bitcoin."

Good to see everything going back to green! Bitcoin just had its best week since March, 2023, jumping over 23% in just a week. This is just the warm-up, don’t fumble it this time. #HODL #BTC

Right now, owning even 0.5 BTC is a flex. And with Bitcoin’s supply capped at 21 million, it will always remain a competitive asset. #BTC #Bitcoin

Give businesses clear rules and they’re more willing to build. Clarity gives the confidence to commit for the long-run. #cryptorules #cryptoregulation
BIG: 🇨🇭 Switzerland is becoming a major global crypto hub. The country now has 1,766 blockchain companies, while FINMA has cut its average fintech and DLT consultation response time by 82%. Clear regulation attracts innovation.

Blockchain’s use cases extend well beyond finance. Its biggest contribution may be fixing systems we’ve simply learned to live with.
Most people think blockchain is just about crypto. It isn’t. Blockchain is simply a digital record that is difficult to alter. That makes it useful for payments, supply chains, identity verification, gaming, and much more. Understanding the technology matters more than chasing the next token.

Brazil has always been at the forefront in the crypto space. Rather than banning digital assets or responding with restrictive policies, it has steadily integrated crypto into its financial infrastructure. This has benefitted Brazil in many ways: -Brought over $300 billion in total crypto value. -Sparked tokenisation boom. -Expanded citizen financial inclusion. The countries that benefit the most from new technologies are rarely the ones that fight them but learn how to build with them. #Brazil #crypto
LATEST: 🇧🇷 The IMF says Brazil's stablecoin market has grown rapidly since 2017, with cross-border crypto flows outpacing traditional capital flows.
