Taiwan dollar plunges against the USD 📉 The TWD has fallen 10% in the last few days, the biggest drop in more than three decades 😱 I believe the two main reasons are: ⏺Taiwan may be tolerating its currency weakness to maintain export competitiveness or for political leverage in trade discussions with the U.S. ⏺Ongoing U.S.–China tensions and fears of escalation keep driving capital out of Taiwan into safer places because of geopolitical risk.

How to improve your trading discipline? 💸 Here’s a psychological trick I like to use 👇 Instead of jumping into a trade and placing a stop-loss at your invalidation level, try placing your limit order where you would have placed that stop-loss. 🧠 This often works because that’s where other traders are getting stopped out. When their positions are liquidated, it often creates a wick, which gives you a much better entry point. 🕯 In this SOL chart, many were tempted to go long on the double bottom at the $116 support level (blue). But the smarter entries were below $100, where many traders had their SL in place (green). That’s where you buy a long squeeze. Many people rush to open more trades. But, in reality, you need fewer trades and better entries. Let the market come to you — good patience pays off ⌛️ #FAQ

Prices of the Counter Strike 2 skins are going parabolic 🔼 Bruh, we are in the wrong industry 🤣

The official White House account posts AI-generated photos of Trump, depicting him as a character from Star Wars fighting 'radical left lunatics' 😲 😈 Ironically, he's holding a red lightsaber. Didn't they find anyone who watched SW movies to tell them that's the color of the bad guys? The matrix we live in is becoming increasingly absurd

Once again I must remind you: most coins fail. Sooner or later everyone thinks “what if I buy 100 different coins, at least one of them will definitely make 100x” 😐 Believe me, it usually ends badly. There are millions of different coins in crypto, most of them are doomed to go to zero. That's why it's better to keep the most of your portfolio in time-tested assets. There are very few of them and the most important one is Bitcoin 🤑 🤔 While some people refused to buy Bitcoin because “it's already too expensive, you can't make much on it”, others bought it at $16k in 2023 and made more than 6x in two years.

EU to Ban Privacy Coins and Anonymous Wallets by 2027 🇪🇺 The European Union has approved sweeping new AML rules that will outlaw privacy-preserving tokens like Monero and Zcash — and ban anonymous crypto accounts 😱 'Anonymous crypto accounts' includes non-custodial wallets not tied to your identity. This isn't just about money laundering. It's about tightening control ahead of the digital euro rollout. 🔥 Privacy is being framed as a threat — and in the EU, it’s being dismantled piece by piece.

After a long legal battle with Epic Games, Apple is now forced to allow apps to redirect users to external payment methods in the U.S. 🍏 While it might seem irrelevant for most of us, this actually means crypto payments and NFT purchases are no longer blocked inside iOS apps. 😮 It’s a massive unlock for crypto consumer apps. For years, Apple’s 30% cut and closed payment system acted as a gatekeeper. That gate just broke open. If this holds, we’re about to see a wave of blockchain-based apps flood into the mainstream. I believe it's way more bullish than most people think 🔗

I'm still bullish. Structurally and fundamentally 📈 💸 Bitcoin balances on exchanges just hit a 5-year low. Supply is vanishing from the open market. 💸 Spot ETFs are absorbing over a billion dollars in BTC every week. That’s consistent, deep demand — not retail hype. 💸 And now MicroStrategy is filing to raise up to $84 billion in preferred stock. Not for operations. To buy more Bitcoin. Ignore the noise. The flows tell the real story ❤️

How to Keep Your Bitcoin Safe from Social Engineering ❤️ Few days ago, 3,520 BTC (worth over $330 million) were stolen from an elderly Bitcoin OG who had held the coins for over 8 years. The theft was executed via social engineering, not hacking. The attacker convinced the victim to give up access, laundered the funds through instant exchanges, and converted them into Monero (XMR). Yeah, that's why it pumped 50% in a day 🤷‍♀️ Don’t want to end up in a headline? Then take your security seriously. Here’s how 👇 ⏺Use a hardware wallet. Storing coins on exchanges or browser wallets is asking for trouble. Cold storage devices like Ledger or SafePal are your first line of defense. ⏺Never store your seed phrase on your phone, computer, or cloud. Write it down and keep it offline, ideally on metal or split across secure locations. Never share it with anyone. ⏺Ignore all unsolicited “tech support.” If someone asks for your seed or offers to “recover” your wallet, it’s a scam. No exceptions. ⏺Don’t click random links or scan QR codes. Many scams start with just one click. Use official sites only and verify everything you install. ⏺Use a clean device for crypto. Don’t manage your keys on the same phone or laptop you use for social media, shopping, or browsing. ⏺Stay quiet. The more people know you hold crypto, the more of a target you become. Don’t share balances or flex wallets online. ⏺Social engineering attacks are designed to make you feel safe just long enough to lose everything. Stay paranoid about anyone contacting you about crypto — it’s part of the job. #FAQ

The art of gaslighting by Trump 😳 Donald Trump says:

This is Biden's stock market, not Trump's.

Very convenient 👍 When stocks go up — it's my achievement! 😡 When stocks go down — damn you Joe!

In the prediction market, the bet that Trump will declare that he would like to be the next Pope has long traded around 0% 📊 But today, out of the blue, Trump told Fox News reporters:

I would like to be pope. That would be my first choice.

It's an incredible time we live in. Interesting to know the thought process of those who were betting 'YES' on this one 😐

Trump Is Planning Another Token Launch 😱 After launching the $TRUMP memecoin and a series of NFT collections, Donald Trump is preparing to go even deeper into crypto. 📰 Truth Social, his social media platform, is now considering releasing a new crypto token. The token would first be used for subscription payments inside a Truth-branded digital wallet, but could later expand to cover a wider range of products and services across the platform. At the same time, Trump's team is moving forward with plans to launch ETFs that will combine stocks and cryptos — a further sign that crypto will be a core part of his media and tech empire. Trump has already shown he’s willing to tie his brand directly to crypto. Now, it looks like he’s trying to build an entire ecosystem around it but this does not mean at all that traders will be able to make money on this event, just rather the opposite 😁

Ray Dalio Warns: "It's Too Late to Stop the Collapse" 😱 Ray Dalio, billionaire investor and founder of Bridgewater Associates, says the changes in the world order are no longer a risk — they are a reality. Trade ties are breaking down, trust is gone, and companies are already moving away from deep connections with the United States. Whatever happens next with tariffs or negotiations will not change the bigger shift. 🚨 Dalio warns that America's financial position is collapsing. The world no longer believes it can lend to the U.S. and be repaid in stable dollars. The old model of America as the buyer and borrower of last resort is falling apart. At the same time, global alliances and political orders are breaking down. Other countries are already building systems to bypass the U.S., with less reliance on its economy, markets, and military 😨 Dalio still hopes for calm solutions, but admits that signs of rational leadership are missing. Chaos, political fighting, and volatility are now teaching lessons that may be impossible to undo. ❗️His message is clear: hoping for things to go back to normal is no longer a strategy.

Europe’s New Rules Could Force Entire Blockchains to Be Deleted 😱 The European Data Protection Board has released a draft of new guidelines that could seriously impact public blockchains like Ethereum. 🇪🇺 According to the document, if personal data recorded on a blockchain cannot be deleted individually, then regulators may require deleting the entire blockchain. The guidelines recommend that organizations move away from public blockchains toward private blockchains that can be controlled. Here are the main changes being proposed 👇 🔵Organizations must prove that using blockchain is absolutely necessary for their purpose. 🔵Smart contracts may have to include manual override options, even after they have been executed. 🔵Running blockchain nodes in multiple countries creates new legal risks under European data protection law. 🔵Storing personal data directly on the blockchain is strongly discouraged. Public consultation on these rules will end on June 30. After that, the guidelines could become binding across the European Union. 🚩 Still don't understand why it matters? If these rules are adopted, decentralized blockchains like Ethereum and many others may no longer be legally allowed to operate in Europe unless they are heavily changed (which I think will never happen). 🙅‍♂️ This strikes at the fundamental idea of blockchain technology, which is that the data is permanent, global, and resistant to censorship. This is not just about compliance. It is about whether public blockchains can survive at all under European law. Bureaucrats would rather cripple economic growth than loosen their grip on financial control 😠
