It’s almost difficult to imagine that just a couple of weeks ago, bitcoin was riding high above $95,000, and the community was speculating about a potential run toward a six-digit price territory for the first time in 2026. Not only did that rally fail to materialize, but the bears woke up in the middle of […]
The substantial correction that began last week and culminated (for now) yesterday evening has not been kind to Pi Network’s native token. The asset, which launched just over a year ago, doesn’t seem to have found a bottom and marked yet another all-time low. Recall that PI was actually trading quite promisingly during the November […]
It’s hard to imagine now that just a few months ago, bitcoin was riding high, investors were hopeful about ‘Uptober,’ and the bulls dominated the market.

The increase is a dramatic reversal from 2024, […]
The Saturday massacre has only intensified in the past few hours, as bitcoin just plunged to $76,000 for the first time since the initial tariff threat in April last year. As such, the cryptocurrency extended its massive losses to almost $15,000 in just days, as it traded above $90,000 on Wednesday. The latest flash crash […]

At the same time, safe haven assets like gold and silver are praised for their stability, especially in times of uncertainty. That’s not what […]
Although the Senate passed a package of funding bills at the end of the business week, the US government still shut down partially on Saturday morning.
