I think that we are still early - even if we are not anymore early adopter.
Likewise for many reason... first of all we haven't already a legal framework in all countries but it's still in development for the first time.
There are many options to collect with a high level of privacy your coins.
You can still enjoy financial returns that you can't see in classic market, even without paying taxes and with an easily setup.
You will always have access to all btc advantages. Until these work for your advantages.
I think that at a certain point, due FIAT Collapse, anyone would be forced to join btc - at this point probably it would be late.

True that ser, I agree 100%, everyone will be forced to join btc soon or later

96% of the World Is Still on the Sidelines of Bitcoin
by
Sioni
on 27/09/2025, 09:25:48 UTC
It’s wild to think that after more than a decade of headlines, less than 4% of the world actually owns Bitcoin as per RIVER statistics. Yet if you are user of any of this platforms, X, Reddit, or crypto Telegrams, it often feels like Bitcoin community is already over saturated.

The truth is: perception ≠ reality. We hear about BTC nonstop because the people who do own it are loud, passionate, and online. Add in a media cycle that thrives on price swings, and it’s easy to believe “everyone’s already in.”

But just zoom out. If 96% of the world still hasn’t touched Bitcoin, then aren't we still very very early?.

Now I want you to imagine what happens when we have 10%, 15%, 20%, what in a big bang explosion will happen?

Are you feeling late? I am here to tell that you’re actually early, very!!!.

So the real question isn’t “Am I early?” but “when will I join?''

Turning Real-World Assets into Something You Can Actually Use On-Chain
by
Sioni
on 26/09/2025, 22:47:51 UTC
Web3 often talks about bridging traditional finance, but most “RWA” projects end up as empty wrappers with no real ownership.


Mira is taking a different path with MIRA-20, a chain built to tokenize and fractionalize real companies, making them tradable, stakable, and verifiable with AI-powered checks. Backed by $9M from Bitkraft, Framework Ventures, and others, its token $MIRA will power gas, staking, governance, and revenue sharing.


With BG UEX push (CEX+DEX+RWA), $MIRA looks primed for a major listing, and the community will have plenty of ways to earn through PoolX, Launchpool, and Candybomb.


An RWA chain like this could be a big step toward harmonizing real-world value with Web3.

Bitcoin Dips Below $109K, Market Cap Feels the Shock
by
Sioni
on 26/09/2025, 22:25:40 UTC
Bitcoin slipped under $109,000 this week as risk appetite cooled ahead of the U.S. core PCE inflation print. The trigger? ETF outflows flipped negative: $258M drained from U.S. spot BTC ETFs on Sept. 25 (only BlackRock’s iShares saw inflows), while ETH ETFs shed another $251M.

Add in nearly $1B in leveraged long liquidations across crypto, wiping out 225,000 traders and you’ve got a textbook “leveraged washout.” Whales have been net sellers since August, long-term holders are taking profits, and post-Fed uncertainty isn’t helping.

Why the global crypto market cap dropped harder than BTC

Bitcoin sets the tone. Once BTC cracked, ETH and altcoins logged double-digit weekly losses. The market cap shrank faster than Bitcoin’s own dip.

ETF outflows means less institutional demand. ETFs had been structural buyers. Redemptions mean liquidity support is gone.

Liquidations amplify pain. Forced exits turn corrections into broad sell-offs.

The road ahead

History says October often favors bulls, but right now the market is fragile. To regain momentum, BTC needs to reclaim the $113.5K–$116K zone with volume and see ETF flows stabilize. Until then, the global crypto market cap is stuck in a cautious, choppy phase.

My take

This isn’t the time to chase every bounce. Short-term: protect capital, cut leverage, and let the dust settle. Medium-term: upside is still on the table, but the market has to prove it first.

Re: Can Bitcoin Escape the “Market of Maybes” as Fed Signals Caution?

I doubt local ETFs have any major effects on bitcoin price, specially nowadays where a lot of more important news are out there that are making investors more "cautious". From inflation and recession all the way to the fresh tensions that are increasing in Europe these days (every day I read their airports shutting down due to invaded airspace! and they deploy military aircrafts to the scene. NATO is also moving from proxy war with Russia to direct war with Russia these days). Some silly rate cuts seem like nothing in comparison!
True that, ETFs might not really have a weighty impact on Bitcoin price these days but atleast they show us what the current sentiment is from institutional point of view and that helps. Don't forget sir, Individuals then Institutions then Nationals

Re: B HODL Starts Strong With 100 BTC and Lightning Ambitions

From what I understood from the news article, this is not an ordinary company that just holds Bitcoin in its treasury. B HODL buys Bitcoin to support its operations on the Bitcoin Lightning . It seems they plan to be, or already are, Lightning providers, and their goal is to earn through routing fees on the network.

Can Bitcoin Escape the “Market of Maybes” as Fed Signals Caution?
by
Sioni
on 25/09/2025, 19:09:51 UTC
Wall Street is showing signs of confidence in Bitcoin again, with spot BTC ETFs pulling in $241M of fresh inflows on Wednesday (led by BlackRock’s iShares fund) after two straight days of outflows. That’s a healthy vote of confidence, even as the Fed tempers enthusiasm with cautious messaging.

Ethereum, meanwhile, tells a different story, $79M in outflows from U.S. spot ETH ETFs the same day, reflecting weaker sentiment compared to Bitcoin.

The Fed is in “wait-and-see” mode: Powell made it clear last week’s rate cut was cautious and not the start of an aggressive easing cycle. This keeps crypto in what analysts call a “market of maybes”, maybe the ETF inflows hold, maybe BTC breaks above $113.5K, or maybe weakness drags it back toward $105K–$90K.

Bottom line: This is cautiously bullish for Bitcoin, Wall Street inflows show dip-buying demand, especially ahead of a historically strong Q4. But with the Fed holding back on rapid cuts and resistance levels still intact, upside is possible but not guaranteed.

You can take it a responsibility to always include reference in some specific post that has to do with an update news.

Am more excited because all these are coming form either UK or US to introduce the adoption of bitcoin as national reserve, treasury or other investment plan as they may find more suitable, we should be expecting for more bigger updates as the entire world continue to move towards the direction of bitcoin adoption more than ever before.
I will definitely include reference next time, thank you very much for pointing my attention to it.

I am also very excited about the adoption, I hope we can see more coming from that part of the world

B HODL Starts Strong With 100 BTC and Lightning Ambitions
by
Sioni
on 24/09/2025, 10:44:22 UTC
So, a new UK-listed company called B HODL just bought its first 100 Bitcoin, spending around $11.3 million. For context, that instantly put them in the top 100 public Bitcoin-holding companies. Not bad for a first move.

To put it in perspective, they’re still tiny compared to the big boys. Another UK firm, Smarter Web, holds over 2,500 BTC, and then there’s Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy with a mind-blowing 639,000+ BTC (that’s $72 billion worth).

What I find interesting is B HODL’s strategy. They’re not just stacking Bitcoin for the sake of it, they plan to use it to power the Lightning Network, which helps make Bitcoin payments faster and cheaper. They want to earn fees by running these payment channels, kind of like being a toll operator on Bitcoin’s fast lane.

It’s early days, but this move shows how even new players are starting to treat Bitcoin as a strategic reserve, like digital gold that can also power real-world payment systems.

Re: Crypto’s Rich List Is Growing Faster Than Ever

Crypto is minting more millionaires than ever. A new report says the industry now counts 36 billionaires and 241,700 millionaires, with wealth growth driven mostly by Bitcoin’s rally. That’s a 40% jump from last year, as global crypto adoption nears 590 million people
Would you mind sharing the report link here, please.

They are likely project founders and scammers while many people lost money to shit coins.

This total tracked cryptocurrencies chart shows how altcoin appearance inflation is since the last two years. You can scroll down and see the Total Tracked chart at the bottom.
https://coinmarketcap.com/charts/number-of-cryptocurrencies-tracked/

You can see from about 3M in September 2024, now one year later, the figure is more than 24M altcoins. This chart means total altcoins have increase about 8 times within one year and it's only tracked cryptocurrencies. There are more scam altcoins created and died in hours or days.
Would love to share link but I am not sure I can yet to avoid my account getting flagged by moderators. Do you think I can share links?

Still, crypto millionaires make up less than 0.5% of the world’s 60 million millionaires, showing there’s room to grow. Bitcoin alone accounts for most of this surge, with nearly 60% of crypto millionaires and 17 billionaires tied to it.


In short, Bitcoin’s bull run hasn’t just moved markets, it’s reshaping the global wealth map.

Strive-Semler Merger Creates $1B+ Bitcoin Powerhouse
by
Sioni
on 22/09/2025, 14:58:49 UTC
Strive, a company that buys and holds Bitcoin (co-founded by Vivek Ramaswamy), is merging with Semler Scientific, another big Bitcoin buyer. Instead of paying cash, Strive will give Semler shareholders Strive stock, at a very high premium (over double Semler’s last share price).

Together, they’ll control more than 10,900 Bitcoin making them one of the largest corporate holders. Strive alone just bought nearly $675 million worth of Bitcoin at an average of $116,000 each.

This deal shows a trend: Bitcoin treasury companies are no longer just raising money to buy Bitcoin they’re now merging and consolidating to grow faster and manage risks.

After the announcement, Semler’s stock jumped over 20%, while Strive’s stock dropped about 7%.

What do you think about this merger, bullish or bearish for btc?

Senate Democrats Call for Joint Bipartisan Effort on Crypto Market Structure Leg
by
Sioni
on 21/09/2025, 20:57:01 UTC
A group of 12 Senate Democrats want more say in shaping new U.S. crypto rules. Right now, Republicans are leading the effort with a bill already passed in the House, but Democrats don’t just want to comment on it after the fact, they want to co-write it.

The Democrats argue that something as big as crypto regulation should be written together from the start. They’ve already released their own framework and want the final law to reflect input from both sides.

The key issues:

Who’s in charge of crypto? The Republican draft gives the SEC and CFTC joint responsibility, while the Democrats want the CFTC to handle most non-security tokens and leave securities to the SEC.

Conflicts of interest: Democrats also want to block government officials (and their families) from starting or profiting off crypto projects while in office.

More resources: They’re pushing for extra funding for regulators to handle oversight properly.

Bottom line: This is less about whether to regulate crypto (both sides agree on that) and more about how to do it and who gets the final say.

Grayscale Wants a Dogecoin ETF
by
Sioni
on 20/09/2025, 09:52:21 UTC
Grayscale just filed new paperwork (S-1) with the SEC to turn its Dogecoin Trust into an ETF. If approved, it would trade on NYSE Arca under the ticker GDOG. Coinbase is set to be the broker and custodian.

This comes right after the SEC made it easier and faster for crypto ETFs to get listed. That’s why we’re suddenly seeing a wave of filings: Dogecoin, Ethereum Trust updates, and even new multi-asset funds and maybe more to come.

Why does this matter?

DOGE futures already exist in U.S. regulated markets.

SEC just approved new listing rules and it comes with less red tape for crypto ETFs

Other players like REX and Osprey also just got the green light for DOGE funds

Bottom line: Grayscale is pushing hard to get DOGE into the ETF world. With new SEC rules, the path looks smoother than ever.

Do you think we will see more ETF filed and approved before the end of the year?

MetaMask’s MASK Token Might Be Closer Than We Think!!!
by
Sioni
on 19/09/2025, 09:50:47 UTC
For years, the crypto space has been buzzing with the same question: Will MetaMask ever launch its own token? Now, we finally have something close to an answer.

Joseph Lubin; Ethereum co-founder and CEO of Consensys just confirmed on The Block’s podcast The Crypto Beat that the long-awaited MASK token is indeed coming. And his exact words? “Sooner than you would expect.”

That’s a big deal. MetaMask isn’t just another crypto wallet; it’s the most widely used gateway into the Ethereum ecosystem. A token tied to it could reshape how users interact, govern, and even benefit from the platform. According to Lubin, MASK will be “significantly related to the decentralization” of MetaMask itself, which lines up perfectly with Ethereum’s wider push toward progressive decentralization.

It’s worth noting that this isn’t just talk. Earlier this month, Consensys rolled out the LINEA token for its Ethereum Layer 2, showing it’s not afraid to move forward with big launches. If MASK follows a similar path, we could see not just another token, but a mechanism to give the community a real stake in MetaMask’s future.

Personally, I find this moment exciting. I remember back in 2021 when whispers of a MetaMask token first started circulating, many dismissed it as speculation. Now, hearing Lubin himself call the launch “concrete and near” makes it feel real. Whether MASK turns into a governance powerhouse, a tool for incentivising usage, or simply another way to reward loyal users, it’s clear that something meaningful is on the horizon.

Connections, Referrals, and Big Breaks — The Power of Blockchain Conferences
by
Sioni
on 18/09/2025, 12:17:55 UTC
My buddy came back from Token2049 with stories that honestly blew my mind. He wasn’t just there to vibe, he left with a stack of new connections, founders, investors, devs and the crazy part? Those handshakes have already turned into gigs, partnerships, and a bunch of referrals that keep paying off.

That’s the power of being in the right room. It’s not just about the panels or the keynote speeches, it’s about those side conversations, the late-night meetups, and the WhatsApp groups that get spun up afterwards. He told me Token2049 literally changed the way he approaches networking.

Now, with Blockchain Life 2025 in Dubai coming up, I can’t help but think, this is one of those can’t-miss moments  whether you are a bitcoin OG or an altcoin maxi. These conferences are where opportunities hide in plain sight, waiting for you to just show up, say hello, and connect the dots.

If you’ve been on the fence, don’t sit this one out. The crypto game moves fast, and events like this are where doors really start to open.

Re: Can we have BNB at 1.5k EOY?
by
Sioni
on 18/09/2025, 11:22:18 UTC
This is just a guess, I may be wrong.

I think BNB is not going to $1500 because it is an altcoin like others. I mean like ethereum and other ones that will have bull period and it will cool down.

I think the people will be satisfied with $1000 for now and drag the price down a bit with it not getting there again for now.

It’s still hard to make a final statement, because as you know, the price of altcoins like BNB and others are unpredictable. It reminds me of the time when Bitcoin was only around $1,000,
and many didn’t believe that its price would go higher — but now, after 8 years, here it is at $117K so far.

In other words, it’s difficult to underestimate the potential of cryptocurrencies like BNB. Maybe before Bitcoin’s bull run ends,
the peak price of BNB could reach somewhere between $1,000–$1,500. It could happen, or maybe it won’t.
I strongly believe BNB has the potential to reach 1.5k amongst all the alts because of its backing. Yes, I know it will cool down at some point for now, we are on giga send mode. I will be watching closely though.

BTC is currently heading back to ATH and major alts are also pumping with it, sol, bnb, eth etc, the major one that caught my attention is bnb which hit a new ATH this morning of 1k. My question now is if BTC maintain this momentum, can we have bnb at 1.5k by the end of the year or? I am sure other tokens like solana and ethereum will also reach new highs

With the kind of pump we have seen with bitcoin this year alone, ATH upon ATH, we have consistently seen btc push higher time and time gain this year. Waking up to see bitcoin at 117k this morning makes me ask the question, will we have see btc below 90k again. I am not ruling out the possibility, but such an occurrence seem very far-fetched at this point. I think we will have dips every now and then, but unless there is some global disaster or something we might never see btc below that 90k zone ever again. What do you think?

Come to think of it, i hard that the in the news that Nigerian politicians has started campaign for 2027 election in this year 2025, which inec officials has called to attention of those politicians that are campaigning in 2025 that it is too early for this campaign that they should wait till in the year 2026 when the campaign will finally flag off for any that is eligible to be for voted in, i believe that this politicians doesn't really care about the bad economy situation currently in the country and i also believe that some politicians that are coming out for the 2027 election are coming out because they have the mindset of changing the current down fall in the economy in the country.
Nigerians will be making a big mistake to think any politician in this country actually cares about them. 99% of these guys only care about their pocket. The remaining 1% will not be allowed to top positions where they can actually effect real change that will have a lasting impact
