Many businesses struggle with sending and receiving money across borders. Traditional banking systems are slow, expensive, and filled with middlemen, leading to delays, extra fees, and uncertainty. For companies working with international suppliers, partners, or clients, high transaction costs, inconsistent exchange rates, and long settlement times can be major barriers to growth. Crypto payments have been proposed as a faster and more modern solution, but they come with their own set of challenges: price volatility, lack of regulatory clarity, and limited support from traditional financial institutions. This combination of issues leaves businesses in a tough spot—caught between outdated financial rails…

Bitcoin’s supply is famously capped at 21 million coins. It is widely believed to be a fundamental feature that ensures scarcity and protects long-term value. This hard limit, embedded in Bitcoin’s code by its pseudonymous creator Satoshi Nakamoto, mimics the scarcity of precious metals like gold and is central to its identity as a deflationary asset. But could that fixed supply ever change? Technically, Bitcoin is open-source software. Anyone can suggest changes to the code. However, making a change as fundamental as increasing the total supply would require a rare level of consensus among developers, miners, businesses, and users—a feat…

Understanding these risks is essential for keeping your funds secure in an increasingly digital and decentralized world. This article explores how typosquatting works, the tactics fraudsters use, real-world cases of crypto typosquatting, and the best…

What if you could combine the speed and sophistication of centralized exchanges (CEXs) with the transparency and user control of decentralized exchanges (DEXs)? That’s the premise behind Hyperliquid, a fully on-chain perpetuals exchange founded by Jeff Yan and Iliensinc, with contributions from alumni of Caltech, MIT, Citadel, and Hudson River Trading. Hyperliquid markets itself as a new breed of exchange that doesn’t force users to choose between performance and decentralization. It promises real-time trade execution, deep liquidity, and self-custody—all built on a custom Layer 1 blockchain. But in a space crowded with innovation and competition, does Hyperliquid live up to…

As blockchain adoption grows, so do the tactics of bad actors looking to exploit unsuspecting users. One emerging threat is address poisoning attacks, a deceptive scam that targets crypto users by tricking them into sending funds to fraudulent addresses. Unlike traditional hacks or phishing schemes that require breaching security systems, address poisoning relies on manipulation and human error. These attacks have become a growing concern in the crypto space, particularly on networks with frequent transactions like Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain. As more individuals and businesses engage in crypto transactions, the risk of falling victim to this subtle yet effective…

The future of digital transformation is being reshaped by one powerful enabler: Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS). As enterprises find ways to integrate secure blockchain adoption into their business strategies, the challenge often lies in managing the complexities of blockchain infrastructure. Traditional deployment requires deep technical expertise, robust hardware, and large-scale financial investments. These and more are roadblocks that deter many businesses from taking the leap. Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS) is a game-changing model that offers scalable blockchain solutions via the cloud. Just as Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) changed the way businesses access software, BaaS provides cloud-based platforms that simplify blockchain implementation, allowing enterprises to innovate faster…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming cybersecurity, playing a dual role by defending digital assets and enabling sophisticated cyberattacks. While AI-powered tools are improving online security, hackers are also using them to steal digital assets. This has become a big concern in the crypto world, where security is already a major challenge. These bots can scan for weaknesses, launch attacks quickly, and even adjust their tactics to bypass security measures. Because they operate 24/7 without human intervention, they can steal large amounts of crypto before being detected.  This raises a critical question: How are AI-driven threats evolving, and what steps…
