The Japanese company Metaplanet, listed in Tokyo, announced the acquisition of an additional 150 bitcoins, bringing its portfolio to 3,350 BTC. A decision made just a few days after the appointment of the son of the former American president to its advisory board. Behind these figures lies a bold maneuver: to transform Metaplanet into a global giant of bitcoin reserves. But why this sudden appetite for the queen of crypto, and what role does Eric Trump play in this equation?

With over 47 million users, Pi Network intrigues as much as it divides.

Bitcoin mining has never been a walk in the park, but lately, it has become downright arduous.

Imagine a world where gold regains its crown, not in the form of bars hidden in a vault, but through shimmering digital tokens.

How?

In the midst of a volatility session, crude oil has seen a spectacular turnaround, driven by major geopolitical signals.

On March 20, 2025, Elon Musk spoke live from Austin in an attempt to contain the storm shaking Tesla.

Bitcoin is wavering, experiencing a loss of over 20% since its all-time high, reviving fears of a sharp reversal. However, some see it as merely a pause in an ongoing cycle. For Timothy Peterson, this decline remains moderate compared to previous bear markets and fits into a classic consolidation phase rather than a structural collapse.

The crypto universe has never feared the absurd. But when blockchain gets entangled with biblical prophecies, even the most seasoned raise an eyebrow. On Polymarket, a decentralized predictive betting platform, a bold contract challenges the laws of the sacred: a 3% chance that Jesus Christ will return before the end of 2025. An unusual bet, certainly, but indicative of an era where decentralized finance embraces the most improbable mythologies.

Take a deep breath: Bitcoin now represents 1.3% of the world's currency, with a market cap flirting with 1.7 trillion dollars. Yes, you read that right.

We may still be a long way from flipping the table, but clearly, Satoshi has set his napkin down well.

While cryptocurrencies are often associated with volatility and risk, Robert Mitchnick, head of digital assets at BlackRock, debunks this narrative. In a context where Bitcoin has lost 20% of its value since its peak at the end of 2023, his recent statements on CNBC resonate like a bold advocacy.
