On January 12, JPMorgan (NASDAQ: JPM) CEO Jamie Dimon told CBS News that his pejorative views on the values of the BTC token haven’t really changed much since he outed himself as a ‘crypto’ skeptic a decade ago.

Although miners quidkly left the pool and reduced its hashpower to 35%, it’s clear that the problem is not solved. At the same time, ASICs threaten to further centralize the very production . One approach to solving the problem is the one I advocated in my previous…

Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) have changed the way we think about digital art and collectibles. Instead of simply looking at a painting on your computer screen, NFTs let you truly own a piece of digital content—like a painting, a music track, or even a moment in sports history. Because NFTs are unique (no two NFTs are exactly the same), creators can sell them much like traditional artwork. Now, “NFT launchpads” are stepping into the spotlight as specialized platforms that help creators raise funds (also known as crowdfunding) through the sale of these unique digital items. In this guide, we’ll explore the…

Donald Trump‘s inauguration is less than a week away, and analysts are now bracing for “heightened volatility” in the crypto market. Singapore-based QCP Capital suggested in its latest report that, similar to 2017, Trump’s actions are already shaking global markets before he officially takes office on Jan. 20.
