Popular economist Henrik Zeberg believes Bitcoin (BTC) and crypto will witness a huge burst to the upside due to central bank intervention. Zeberg tells his 179,800 followers on the social media platform X that he thinks the global economy is slowing down to the point that it is transitioning from growth to contraction. While the analyst believes that a recession is in sight, he says central banks will likely step in and prop up the economy with money printing to the benefit of Bitcoin and crypto. “We are at an important inflection point in the Business Cycle. From my perspective, the Economy is NOT crashing yet – but it is rolling over! At this point, we should begin to see liquidity surge as the central banks will try to plug the holes of the economy. They will likely be short-term successful. Markets may rally strongly in the final phase. Crypto may explode higher. However, the Titanic has hit the iceberg – and liquidity will only delay the inevitable...

In 2024, popular influencer Andrew Tate reversed his previous stance and decided to get involved with cryptocurrencies, investing in Bitcoin (BTC), endorsing – though some might say shilling – blockchains, and promoting a self-themed meme coin: Daddy Tate (DADDY). During the year, DADDY recorded notable gains as the celebrity posted numerous social media posts urging his followers to invest and saw several peaks. Shortly after launch, in mid-June, it hit its all-time high (ATH) at $0.2641. Though it swiftly plunged toward $0.078, it enjoyed several subsequent surges to $0.21 in July, $0.158 in September, and $0.164 in October.  Despite the sometimes positive volatility, it is difficult to miss that Daddy Tate has been in a death spiral since its launch, spending most of its time on the decline in the cryptocurrency market. With its press time price of $0.039, DADDY is 85.25% down in the all-time chart and has collapsed 32.61% since 2025 started. ...

An Irish man who confessed to spying for payroll firm Deel while working for rival company Rippling claims to have been paid in crypto as part of an alleged James Bond-inspired plot.  Rippling filed a lawsuit against Deel in March 2025, accusing the firm of misappropriation of trade secrets, racketeering, and tortious interference. Now, an affidavit filed in Ireland’s high court has revealed the confession of Keith O’Brien, the alleged spy involved.  O’Brien claims he spied for Deel after its CEO, Alex Bouaziz, offered him roughly €5,000 ($5,500) to obtain information on Ripplings’s “way of doing things” in a meeting where James Bond was mentioned.  He accepted and claims he received his first payment before Alex’s father, Deel’s CFO Philippe Bouaziz, told him that “future payments would be made via cryptocurrency, as this method would leave ‘no trace.’” O’Brien says he was paid in Ethereum to his blockchain.com wallet and subsequently converted the funds to ...

Crypto and the Future of Music: How Blockchain is Revolutionizing the Industry! The music industry has long been dominated by intermediaries—record labels, streaming platforms, and distributors—who often take a significant portion of an artist’s earnings. However, blockchain technology is changing the game, empowering musicians with more control over their work, creating innovative revenue models, and fostering direct engagement with fans. Decentralization and Artist Empowerment Traditionally, artists earn only a fraction of the revenue generated by their music due to complex contracts and industry gatekeepers. Blockchain introduces a decentralized approach where musicians can tokenize their work as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) , allowing them to sell directly to fans. This means no middlemen, no excessive fees, and a fairer share of earnings for creators. NFTs: Ownership, Royalties, and Exclusive Content NFTs have revolutionized music distribution. By minting music as NFTs, artists can:...
