We have received some very significant news. It is reported that the Mexican drug lord, Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, commonly known as El Mencho, was killed during a military operation. According to a statement from the U.S. Deputy Secretary of State, Nemesio Oseguera died due to injuries sustained while being airlifted after the operation.
This individual was the leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel and played an extremely important role in the drug distribution network across Latin America. His influence was considerable.
The impact of this development is not limited to Mexico alone. I

Cryptocurrency trading often reveals that there can be a discrepancy between the price at which you place an order and the price at which it actually executes. This is commonly known as "slippage," and it's one of the costs that traders tend to overlook.
Slippage refers to the difference between the expected price of a trade and the actual price at which the trade is executed. It tends to occur more frequently during periods of high volatility or low liquidity. There are also positive cases where the trade executes at a better price than expected, but usually, it’s negative slippage—that is, y

I noticed that the funding rate for Bitcoin has turned negative, and this is actually a pretty interesting phenomenon.
So, what exactly is the funding rate? It’s the payment exchanged between long and short traders in the futures market. It plays a role in maintaining market balance. When it’s positive, people betting on the price going up pay those betting on the decline. Conversely, when it’s negative, those expecting a drop pay the ones expecting a rise.
Currently, with the funding rate being negative, it’s a sign that the overall market is feeling bearish. Everyone is betting on Bitcoin’s

Natural gas futures are declining. It seems that profits have shrunk to 1%. Looking at EIA data, last week's increase in natural gas inventories apparently exceeded market expectations. The inventories accumulating more than expected are likely influencing the market.
Since these inventory reports directly impact market sentiment, it seems necessary to closely monitor how natural gas futures will move afterward. People holding positions in energy-related assets should keep an eye on inventory trends.

Recently, discussions have increased in the market about the possibility of China gradually easing regulations on cryptocurrency trading. If China were to fully reopen its doors to cryptocurrencies, a large influx of funds from this country, which has the most tech-focused investors, could occur, potentially having a significant impact on the entire market.
In fact, the lifting of restrictions in the Chinese market has repeatedly served as a catalyst for bullish trends in the past. This time as well, it is attracting attention among market participants as it could bring new vitality to the cry

Elon Musk's marriage life has been a topic of discussion, but honestly, it's a bit too complicated. Three marriages, three wives, and six children—his private life is just on a whole other scale, isn't it?
His first wife was his girlfriend during his time in Canada, and they had five children, but they divorced after eight years. A month later, he remarried an actress, so his heart was probably elsewhere. It seems he was in the middle of launching Tesla at that time, and there are stories that he even borrowed money for meals, so he was likely under financial and mental stress.
Later, his rela

You often hear about ATH, but do you know exactly what it means? It’s a word that comes up no matter what when you’re trading, and in reality, it’s deeper than it looks.
ATH—meaning All Time High (spelled out as “all-time high”)—literally means “highest price,” but it’s not just a number. It’s an important point that reflects market psychology. It refers to the highest price level that a cryptocurrency has reached from the past up to the present, and the moment this level is reached becomes a time when investors are filled with a mix of excitement and anticipation.
In fact, ATH has a dual natu

Recently, while looking into how the bodies of world leaders are preserved, I came across a truly fascinating story. In fact, there are only 5 leaders’ bodies in the world that are still preserved permanently, and behind this are complex interwoven choices shaped by technology and by the times.
Lenin was the first pioneer. When he died in 1924, he was originally supposed to be buried normally, but the public’s overwhelming fervor for mourning was so intense that, after his body began to deteriorate, it was suddenly decided to preserve it by freezing. Soviet scientists then began serious resear

The CEO of Unicoins is serious. They reportedly rejected a settlement request from the SEC. It’s said to be around late April, and it seems they took issue with how the UNIC token distribution method and display were presented.
But this CEO isn’t just refusing; they’re also considering counter-suing. They’re apparently thinking about a damages claim worth billions of dollars. They claim it’s a legacy of the previous SEC administration. On Unicoins’ side, they probably believe that their explanation of "asset-backed" and "SEC-compliant" is legitimate.
These large-scale lawsuits tend to drag on.

If you want to master Polkadot JS, understanding the wallet features should be your top priority.
Recently, more people are entering the Polkadot ecosystem, but many are unaware that there are three main tools: UI, browser extension, and API. Especially around the Polkadot JS wallet, it often feels complicated for blockchain beginners.
Polkadot JS is essentially an integrated toolkit for interacting with the Polkadot network. From account management to asset transfers, staking, and more, you can do most things here. First, when you access the UI portal, you'll see organized functions such as a

Texas has finally taken action. Governor Greg Abbott signed SB21, making Texas the first state to establish an independent public-funded Bitcoin reserve fund. Arizona and New Hampshire have also passed similar bills, but what sets Texas apart is that it is not just an approval—Texas has actually allocated $10 million to a two-year budget. The fund is managed by the state comptroller and exists independently outside the traditional fiscal system.
A related bill worth noting is HB4488. This legally exempts the Bitcoin reserve fund from the state’s “fund sweep” mechanism. In other words, it canno

The rapid rise of Bitcoin continues. When I checked this morning, it had risen to the $81,000 range, clearly breaking through the $80,000 resistance. I think the fact that the $77,000 support is holding firmly is a bullish sign.
The macro environment isn't bad either. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq are hitting new all-time highs, and combined with the strong performance of the semiconductor sector, institutional investors are continuing to flow in. Physical Bitcoin ETFs have seen net inflows for four consecutive weeks, and BlackRock's IBIT also seems to be actively buying.
However, there are many bear

The cryptocurrency tax system in Malaysia is actually quite complex. Recently, regulations in this area have been rapidly developed, so it's valuable for market participants to understand them.
First, the basics. Malaysia has a tax system composed of direct and indirect taxes, but regarding cryptocurrencies, it has long been treated ambiguously. As of 2014, Bank Negara Malaysia explicitly stated that "Bitcoin is not legal tender." But what's important is that this did not mean it was "tax-exempt." Quite the opposite, it was the trigger for authorities to start paying close attention.
An intere

The debate that AI will take away jobs has really been everywhere lately, but actually, from an economic perspective, it's completely wrong.
There's a common claim that "the total amount of jobs is fixed," but this completely ignores 200 years of economic history. Let's look at the era when agriculture was mechanized. In the early 20th century, one-third of the U.S. workforce was engaged in farming, but by 2017, that had dropped to 2%. When tractors appeared, some probably thought, "This will cause all agricultural workers to become unemployed." But in reality, agricultural output tripled, a

After trying Polkadot JS, I realized how truly convenient this toolkit is. It has almost all the necessary features to connect with the Polkadot network. It consists of three main components: UI, browser extension, and API, designed to support both beginners and developers.
First, let me explain the Polkadot JS UI. This is an online wallet management tool that includes basic functions such as creating accounts, sending and receiving tokens, staking, and checking network status. It's reassuring that you can back up your account with a seed phrase.
The browser extension is also very useful. By i

This might become news about Buffett, but recently an interesting project has been trending on GitHub. Someone has seriously turned Buffett and Munger into AI agents and released it as open source.
The project is called AI Hedge Fund, and roughly speaking, it embeds the investment philosophies of 12 legendary investors into agents, making it accessible for individual investors. It includes Buffett, Munger, Benjamin Graham, Cathy Wood, Michael Burry, Nassim Taleb, and others. In addition to the 12 investor agents, there are 6 analyst agents that evaluate fundamentals, technicals, sentiment anal

In recent years, as the AI industry has expanded rapidly, one company has been drawing attention at an accelerating pace. That company is Micron Technology. To be honest, for a long time it was largely overlooked behind Nvidia and TSMC, but things have started to change significantly.
Looking back a bit in history, in 2012, Elpida—once a source of pride for Japan’s semiconductor industry—went bankrupt. Although it had the technological backing of three major players, NEC, Hitachi, and Mitsubishi, it disappeared completely from the DRAM market in just a little over 20 years. Micron acquired the

Recently, Deutsche Bank released an interesting report, and it says that cryptocurrency adoption in the United States is actually in a recovery trend. It looks like Bitcoin is still keeping a leading position as usual.
It seemed like the spread of crypto assets had calmed down from the earlier surge, but when you look at the actual data, it’s likely that solid demand remains in the U.S. market. I think Bitcoin’s continued central role reflects differences in trust levels among market participants.
When looking at the entire cryptocurrency market, as the regulatory environment gets better and i

The Japanese internet meme "114514" has finally become a cryptocurrency. The meme coin $114514 issued on the Solana blockchain has surged immediately after trading started, recording a spike of over 1,000%. As of the time of writing, the price has reached 0.011056 USDT.
This number is known from the catchphrases of the "Beast Senpai." The expression "Good! Come on!" which spread on Nico Nico Douga and social media, has somehow entered the world of cryptocurrencies. A major exchange has decided to list it, riding this trend. Within the community, it’s being talked about as " unstoppable."
