TRUMP price continues to fall in a wedge and the MACD shows that bears are in control as volume and OI decrease.

Cryptocurrency may have started as a fringe financial experiment, but for Gen Z, it’s become a legitimate—and in many cases, preferred—form of investment. Born between 1997 and 2012, Gen Z is rewriting the rules of wealth building. One of the most striking signs of this shift? A staggering 42% of Gen Z investors own cryptocurrency, compared to just 11% who have retirement accounts, according to a 2025 study by YouGov. But why choose crypto over stocks? The answer lies in a complex web of digital culture, skepticism of traditional finance, the promise of financial freedom, and the fast-paced nature of…

Memecoin-focused blockchain MemeCore launched a rewards program with a special focus on screening out bots. Memecoin season is in full swing, and platforms are looking to capitalize. On Friday, June 27, MemeX, a memecoin launchpad on the MemeCore blockchain, launched a viral campaign to reward its users, but also to highlight the problems with AI in blockchain. In particular, MemeX will distribute $700,000 in rewards to its users, with close attention to screening out bots. For this reason, they rolled out a tongue-in-cheek verification system called Proof of Sh*t. The idea behind it is simple: bots can’t fake bodily functions. Finally.…

The crypto revolution began in 2009 with Bitcoin, and it has reached unprecedented heights with the cryptocurrency leading the charge. However, the tides are changing, and Bitcoin’s role in the future of the industry is being debated. Should legitimacy come from nations and institutions holding Bitcoin in their reserves? Or does crypto need robust regulations to earn mainstream acceptance? Some argue that Bitcoin reserves signal trust and stability. Others insist that without clear legal frameworks, crypto will remain volatile and misunderstood. The real question may not be which approach is better, but whether both are necessary for crypto’s long-term credibility.…

Still, PEPE is flashing some bullish signals that may support a rebound in the coming…

Bad actors managed to siphon roughly $2.1 billion worth of crypto across 75 incidents in the first half of 2025. According to a report by blockchain intelligence firm TRM Labs, the majority of these losses stemmed from infrastructure attacks that targeted the technical backbone of crypto systems.

On average, such attacks yielded 10 times more in value than other methods. TRM Labs noted that the largest incident so far this year was the $1.5 billion breach of Dubai-based crypto…
