FTX has started reimbursing some clients who had funds on the exchange in 2022.
The payouts are being made in dollars, based on the price at that time.
In other words, anyone who held 1 BTC will receive only $18,000 😭
This is why maximalists always repeat the basics—because the basics work: “Not your keys, not your coins.”
Don’t fall for illusions. Until there is a truly decentralized platform like Aave running on the Bitcoin network, don’t risk your sats chasing yield.

Follow the money.
This is Hayden Davis, advisor to Javier Milei, responsible for the memecoin $LIBRA scam.
He essentially admitted publicly to committing:
1. Insider Trading
2. Market Manipulation
3. Misappropriation of Funds (Potential Fraud)
4. Failure to Disclose Material Information
5. Theft or Unjust Enrichment
6. Conspiracy to Commit Financial Crimes
7. Regulatory Violations: Money Laundering and Securities Fraud
It is also possible that Hayden is involved in the $MELANIA memecoin, recently launched by the First Lady of the United States.
This is why MEMECOINS ARE A CANCER to this market.
If you want to avoid being scammed and robbed, buy Bitcoin and stay away from the easy-money narratives pushed by shitcoins.
This is why politicians, companies, and individuals should steer clear of “narratives” and focus on the ONLY decentralized currency—one with no insiders, no VCs, and no marketing team to deceive you.
Stay focused, stick to #Bitcoin.


Net inflows into #Bitcoin ETFs have dropped significantly in 2025, with both capital inflows and outflows flattening.

Curious fact: In the last 30 days, nearly $27 BILLION has flowed out of ETH, while over $33.5 BILLION has moved into BTC on-chain.
Not sure if this is what many meant by “capital rotation,” but it certainly looks like the market structure is different from the last cycle.


Mayor of New York City says, “Remember y’all laughed at me when I first got my #Bitcoin?”

Most of the Federal Reserve’s current quantitative tightening has been offset by increased liquidity through TGA and RRP.
If your thesis is based solely on “When does QE return?”, you’re likely seeing only part of the puzzle.
Liquidity is a set of tools, not just the Fed’s balance sheet.


🚨 Tether may sell $8 billion in #Bitcoin to comply with new U.S. stablecoin regulations, according to JP Morgan.
Currently, only 66% of its reserves meet compliance standards, while Tether holds approximately 83,758 BTC.
The STABLE Act imposes stricter reserve requirements and allows state-level regulation, while the GENIUS Act mandates federal oversight for major issuers and permits a broader range of reserve assets.
If either bill passes, Tether may need to restructure its reserves, likely increasing its holdings of U.S. Treasury securities.
