Ray Dalio
Principles are formed in different ways. Sometimes it is influenced by acquired experience and reflection. Sometimes we inherit them from other people, such as parents, and sometimes we adopt a whole set of principles, like religious doctrines or a code of laws. The ambitions and goals of each person are unique, and they choose principles for themselves accordingly. Following the rules of others is not always necessarily bad. But if you follow them blindly and thoughtlessly, there is a risk that your behavior will be uncharacteristic for you and will prevent you from achieving what y

In 1979–1980, the state of the American economy was even more dire than during the 2007–2008 financial crisis, and the markets also exhibited higher volatility. Below are charts reflecting fluctuations in interest rates and gold prices up to 1940. As you can see, nothing similar to what happened before 1979–1982 occurred.
This was one of the turning points of the century. The political pendulum swung to the right worldwide, and Margaret Thatcher, Ronald Reagan, and Helmut Kohl came to power. The definition of "liberal" ceased to mean "progressive" and took on a new meaning—"paying people so th

Tether purchased over 6 tons of gold in the first quarter of 2026
Now they own more than 132 tons of gold — the largest holder of gold outside of banks and government institutions.
They use it as collateral for their assets along with bonds and Bitcoin.

According to Whale Alert data, Ripple unlocked 1 billion XRP, but 700 million XRP were re-locked within 24 hours as part of the escrow mechanism.

Van de Poppe also noted that over the past few months, market interest has noticeably shifted: artificial intelligence and related technological segments have taken a significant share of attention away from cryptocurrencies. A comparative example: since the beginning of the year, Nvidia (NVDA) shares — the largest company in the AI sector by market capitalization — have increased by 5.08%, while Bitcoin has lost about 10% over the same period. The last time Bitcoin traded above $100,000 was on November 13 — roughly a month after the large-scale liquidation of the crypto market on October 10,

Bitcoin has been unable to return above the $100,000 level for five months—and there is no consensus among analysts about what exactly could push it there. MN Trading Capital founder Михаэль ван де Поппе (Michael van de Poppe) believes that no catalyst is needed for that. “No narrative is needed that would push the price up,” he wrote on social media X. “The price is moving up, and the narrative creates itself.” In his view, for success it’s enough to rely on math, statistics, and logic, and Bitcoin’s current levels are still suitable for accumulation.#USSeeksStrategicBitcoinReserve

Co-founder of Solana Anatoly Yakovenko stated that the greatest danger at present lies in the possibility of hacking signature schemes based on post-quantum cryptography (PQC) using artificial intelligence.

Visser predicts that this huge profit on exchanges will eventually be realized, and investors will direct this capital into growth assets such as Bitcoin. A strategist expecting a significant influx of money into cryptocurrencies, especially in the second half of the year, adds that he has already taken positions in this growth through stocks of companies like MicroStrategy.
Visser states that high P/E ratios (price/earnings) for Nvidia and other semiconductor manufacturers do not pose a risk, but rather are "expectations of future bottlenecks." The strategist notes that investments are now sh

Regarding options, call options surpass put options in open interest.
The total open interest for call options is 241,222.88 $BTC compared to 169,755.09 $BTC for put options, resulting in a call/put ratio of approximately 58.69% to 41.31%.
Over a 24-hour volume, put options took the lead with a share of 53.65% versus 46.35% for call options, indicating short-term hedging activity by traders.

A key stage will be the case being heard in federal court. The decision will depend on how the market evaluates the actions of the $WLFI team and Sana's position.
If the court rules in favor of the plaintiff, the project will face serious consequences. Otherwise, $WLFI will be able to confirm its legal position and reduce pressure from investors.
The story has already changed the perception of the Sana and Trump alliance. The question is whether this conflict will become a private case or a signal for the entire industry.

Justin Sun's Alliance and World Liberty Financial fell apart before our eyes. TRON's founder filed a lawsuit against a project related to Donald Trump's family, claiming his tokens were frozen, his governance rights were revoked, and his share was attempted to be nullified through an asset burn mechanism.
Just a year ago, the situation looked different. San was considered a key investor in $WLFI, investing $75 million and taking on an advisory role. He also became the largest holder at a private dinner for $TRUMP meme token owners. Now, one of the project's main supporters has become the plain
