The chart highlights Bitcoin's performance, with the red line representing Bitcoin now and the yellow line depicting its price movement in 2016-2017. Could history be repeating itself?

Bitcoin's halving cycles often influence market behaviour. This visual clearly shows that patterns from the past can provide fascinating insights into current price trends.

What are your thoughts—are we about to see a similar bull run? 📈

Did you know farms are transforming cow manure 🐄💩 into #Bitcoin ⚡️?

https://x.com/SimplyBitcoinTV/status/1878218082969071770

Here's how it works:

1. Manure releases methane, a potent greenhouse gas.

2. Farms capture this gas and use it to generate electricity.

3. That electricity powers Bitcoin mining rigs.

The result? Lower emissions, extra income for farmers, and a sustainable way to mine Bitcoin. This innovation not only supports green energy but also helps tackle climate change.

It's another example of how Bitcoin technology unexpectedly pushes boundaries! Could this be the future of sustainable farming?

ADA and XRP are pulling up the crypto market today! 🚀

Cardano (ADA) and XRP are gaining momentum and lifting the broader market. Could this be the start of a sustained rally? Or are we seeing short-term volatility in action?

Let's discuss:

- ADA's ecosystem updates and staking activity

- XRP's ongoing developments and regulatory clarity prospects

What do you think the week's rest holds for Cardano and XRP? 📊 Drop your insights below! 🤔

Not the EU normally their pretty good at doing there own thing but they are also not stupid when it comes to tech so they know and someone's properly learnt about it and explained it

For me in the UK I with a bank call revolute and with them I can buy store and have a card that lets me spend my bitcoin so I put a little bit of my money into bitcoin as a kind of savings I don't worry about price either and then if I need fiat quickly and don't have enough and I can take bitcoin I can spend that immediately with the digital card that they give me

Scaramucci: Am I crazy to have 55% of my net worth in Bitcoin?

Anthony Scaramucci isn't shy about his belief in Bitcoin, with more than half his wealth riding on BTC. While some call it risky, others, like Tom Lee, suggest HODLing because "you don’t know what the ceiling is."

This raises a critical question for investors: How much conviction is too much? Scaramucci's move might seem extreme, but in the world of Bitcoin, faith in long-term potential drives its biggest advocates.

What's your opinion? Would you allocate over half your net worth to Bitcoin, or is this a case of excessive risk-taking?

Let's discuss it!

HOLY F*CK!!! 🚨 Cynthia Lummis, a long-time supporter of #Bitcoin, is doubling, encouraging people to buy and hold Bitcoin as part of their future and retirement plans.

This is BULLISH news and a massive win for Bitcoin adoption! With more policymakers recognizing the value of decentralized assets, the future looks brighter than ever for crypto enthusiasts and hodlers.

Could Bitcoin become a core part of financial planning? Time to stack sats and prepare! 🧡🔥

James Howells' $750M Bitcoin treasure remains buried—literally.

Over a decade ago, Howells mistakenly tossed a hard drive containing 8,000 BTC into a landfill. Despite relentless efforts to excavate the site, involving robotics and AI, a judge has rejected his latest plea to search through 110,000 tons of garbage.

This case highlights both the incredible value of Bitcoin and the irreversible nature of losing private keys. Once lost, recovery is nearly impossible without access to the original wallet.

Will his Bitcoin ever be recovered? Or will it remain a digital fortune lost to history?

🚨 European MP: "Donald Trump will create a Strategic #Bitcoin Reserve. What is the EU doing?" 🤯

The global financial chessboard is shifting, and Bitcoin is taking centre stage. If true, this move signals a massive step for state-level Bitcoin adoption. But it also raises questions:

- Why now?

- What's the EU's next move?

- Will this ignite a global Bitcoin reserve race?

*Bitcoin believers*—are you ready for this paradigm shift? And sceptics—how does this reshape your outlook on digital assets?

Web3's power lies in its potential to transform industries, but jargon keeps many at arm's length.

Read here: https://circuitryhubinsights.online/how-extracting-web3-jargon-can-unlock-its-full-potential"

Terms like "dApps," "DeFi," and "smart contracts" are exciting but confusing. By simplifying the Web3 language, we can reach a wider audience and drive adoption. Imagine explaining Web3 without needing a glossary.

At its core, Web3 represents ownership, decentralization, and transparency. These concepts are revolutionary but shouldn't require technical expertise to understand.

Dive into how removing buzzwords can demystify Web3 and create a more inclusive ecosystem.

Government Bonds in Web3: The Future of Debt Markets and Tokenization

Read here: https://circuitryhubinsights.online/government-bonds-in-web3-the-future-of-debt-markets-and-tokenization

The world of government bonds is undergoing a revolution. With blockchain and Web3, traditional debt markets are becoming more transparent, accessible, and efficient. Tokenization enables bonds to be securely issued and traded on decentralized platforms, breaking down barriers for investors globally.

This article explores how tokenization could redefine the financial landscape, from reducing inefficiencies in debt markets to democratizing access to one of the oldest investment instruments.

What does this mean for the future of finance? Are we witnessing the dawn of a new era in government debt markets?

That's just it right

One thing I don't get is if you look up tiktok even before the use government looked into them

1. The have over 8,000 employees most living in the US

2. The servers are in the US California if I remember right

3. They keep saying it owned by the Chinese and the owner himself is Chinese when intact it run by south Korean country from the US the owner is South Korean and there one of the Asian countries that do not allow china to control nothing because of there experience with North Korea

4. One of the people in the courthouse or government rooms not Shure witch said because it connects to the WiFi it automatically controls it showing they have no idea
