Bitcoin is literally changing the economies of countries around the world. El Salvador recently joined the list along with the likes of Nigeria, Vietnam, and of course Switzerland. With all of that going on, there is no reason why Bitcoin shouldn’t be a part of the American Dream. When Bitcoin hit $50K last week, it stayed up for a moment and then dropped a few thousand. As we called it, that was the small dip before the surge. It was a great time to buy because I might have said this before, but that would be the lowest it would

Bitcoin Rise Projected By One US Mayor As Feds Keep Stamping More USD

While most politicians are behind the curve in understanding Bitcoin, one U.S. Mayor has a good grasp of the way the digital currency is going. When Jackson, Tennessee Mayor Scott Conger tweeted his predictions, he made it clear what will be at the source of Bitcoin’s consistent growth far into the future. It’s not that most politicians throughout the U.S. aren’t aware of what Bitcoin is. The problem is they keep trying to find a way to straddle it.

In the early 90s, when the Soviet Union fell apart, Cuba lost its backup. As the economy deteriorated, the infamous Maleconazo uprising broke out but Fidel Castro was able to squash it early and most Cubans weren’t even aware that it had happened. Today in the day of the internet,

‘Inherently Borderless’; Acting OCC Chief On Crypto, State Licenses & DeFi

Brian Brooks, the former Coinbase legal chief, took office as Acting Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) at the end of May, barely two and a half months after being appointed First Deputy at the federal banking agency. In that time he’s already publicly suggested a federal payments charter for fintech companies, asked state and local governments to consider lifting COVID-19 lockdowns to protect the banking system and published a request for public input on how banks look at crypto.

Rising Institutional Investment Setting Standard For Crypto Growth

Financial institutions have begun to enter crypto with a quickening pace, setting the tone for the remainder of 2019 and 2020.
