US adding firing squads, electrocution and gassing to federal execution methodsApril 24 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump's administration plans to add firing squads, electrocution and gas asphyxiation as alternative methods of executing people convicted of the gravest federal crimes, it announced on Friday, noting difficulties in obtaining drugs for lethal injections.
The recommendation came in a Justice Department report fulfilling Trump's promise to resume capital punishment at the federal level in his second term, although it will likely be several years before another federal execution can be scheduled.
Shortly before his first term ended in 2021, Trump, a Republican, resumed executions at the federal level after a 20-year gap, putting 13 federal prisoners to death with lethal injections in his final few months in office. There had been just three federal executions in the preceding 50 years.
Most executions in the U.S. are carried out by state governments.
Returning to the White House last year, Trump rescinded a moratorium on federal executions by his predecessor, former President Joe Biden.
Trump's Justice Department is now seeking the death penalty against more than 40 defendants across the country, although none have yet gone to trial, each of which can take years.
Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, in his introduction to the 52-page report, wrote that the Biden administration's moratorium had "undermined the federal death penalty and left victims, their families, their communities, and the Nation to bear the consequences."
In the report, Blanche instructed the Justice Department's Bureau of Prisons to modify its execution protocol "to include additional, constitutional manners of execution that are currently provided for by the law of certain states," pointing to the older methods of firing squads and electrocution, and the new gas asphyxiation method pioneered by Alabama in 2024.
Adding alternative methods to the protocol will allow for executions "even if a specific drug is unavailable," the report said.METHODS ARE DAUNTING
It can take years for condemned prisoners to exhaust all legal avenues for challenging their death sentences, and none of the three men on federal death row are eligible, under current Justice Department rules, to be given execution datesActing Attorney General Todd Blanche, in his introduction to the 52-page report, wrote that the Biden administration's moratorium had "undermined the federal death penalty and left victims, their families, their communities, and the Nation to bear the consequences."Biden, a Democrat, commuted the sentences of 37 of the 40 men awaiting executions on federal death row, leaving only three behind: Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, convicted in 2015 for the deadly bombing of the Boston Marathon; Dylann Roof, convicted in 2017 of killing nine worshipers at a South Carolina church; and Robert Bowers, convicted in 2023 of killing 11 people at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
The U.S. is one of very few Western nations that still uses the death penalty, although public support for capital punishment has gradually declined among Americans. According to long-running Gallup surveys, opens new tab, 52 percent said they supported it for murder last October, the lowest in more than 50 years, while 44 percent said they opposed it.

Typically, when a U.S. state or the federal government adopts a new execution protocol, death row prisoners can mount legal challenges arguing the new method violates the U.S. Constitution's prohibition of "cruel and unusual punishments."
Such challenges have always failed at the U.S. Supreme Court, which has never previously found an adopted execution method to be unconstitutional. However, some methods, including the firing squad and electrocution, have not been revisited by the court since the 19th century, and the court has not yet agreed to hear challenges to gas asphyxiation.
In 2024, Alabama became the first state to execute someone by forcing nitrogen into their airways through a face mask, suffocating them. This method has since been adopted by Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Oklahoma.
Some opponents of executions criticized Trump for adopting these additional methods. Cassandra Stubbs, director of the American Civil Liberties Union's Capital Punishment Project, said the Justice Department "embraces forms of execution that have been widely denounced for their cruelty and unnecessary infliction of extreme pain."

S&P500: Intel Surge Lifts US Stocks as Oil Dip Boosts Market ForecastJune E-mini S&P 500 Index futures are pushing higher Friday morning and two things are driving it. Intel soared 24% in premarket after a blowout earnings report and word out of Pakistan suggests U.S. and Iran negotiations may be back on. That combination gave buyers a reason to show up after a week that was shaping up as a losing one for the major averages. Keep reading for the key levels and what traders need to watch into the close.
June E-mini S&P 500 Index futures are edging higher shortly before the cash market opening on Friday. The overnight trade has been volatile, producing two-sided trading action
At 13:04 GMT, it’s trading $7158.00, up $14.50 or +0.20%.
The index hit a record high at 7189.50 early in the session. Traders are going to have to take out this level to resume the uptrend. From the top down, the key levels to watch today are Thursday’s close at 7143.50, last week’s close at 7161.50 and the minor swing bottom at 7079.25
A close below 7161.50 will produce a weekly closing price reversal top. If confirmed, this could trigger the start of a 2 to 3 week correction. Finishing below 7143.50 will form a daily closing price reversal top. If confirmed, this could trigger the start of a 2 to 3 day correction. But the combination of the daily and weekly reversal could send a strong signal that momentum is shifting lower
A trade through 7079.25 will change the minor trend to down and confirm the shift in momentum. This could lead to a steep break into the short-term retracement zone at 7079.25
Longer-term targets are the 50-day moving average at 6833.36, the 200-day moving average at 6826.00 and the retracement zone at 6771.50 to 6672.75.
A Pakistani government official told reporters that Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi is expected in Islamabad Friday evening and that U.S.-Iran negotiations are likely to follow. Oil pulled back on the news and futures pushed higher. That’s the trade in one sentence. Any credible signal that talks are resuming takes risk premium out of energy prices and gives equities room to breathe.
Trump also announced Thursday that Israel and Lebanon agreed to extend their ceasefire by three weeks. The Strait of Hormuz situation remains active with both the U.S. and Iran seizing commercial ships this week. The Middle East is still capable of moving this market on any headline and Friday proved it again.
Intel jumped 24% in premarket after beating earnings estimates and issuing strong guidance. That’s the kind of move that pulls the whole semiconductor space higher and the sector needed it. The iShares Semiconductor ETF posted its 17th straight positive session Thursday and is on pace for a 6% weekly gain. The rally in chips is the one thing holding this market together right now. Everything else is flat to lower on the week with the S&P 500 and Dow both down about 0.3% and the Nasdaq off 0.1%
The weekly close is the number that matters most today. A finish below 7161.50 puts a weekly closing price reversal top on the chart and that’s a signal traders around the world will notice over the weekend. Intel and the Iran talk headlines bought the bulls some time Friday morning. Whether that holds into the close decides how next week sets up.

JPMorgan says persistent security flaws curb DeFi’s institutional appealA $20 billion hit from the KelpDAO exploit highlights systemic risks, while flat ETH-denominated growth and a shift to stablecoins point to ongoing fragility in DeFi
The KelpDAO exploit, which the bank said erased about $20 billion in TVL within days, exposed structural risks.
An attacker breached a cross-chain bridge, minted $292 million in unbacked rsETH and used it as collateral to drain lending protocols, leaving roughly $200 million in bad debt. Contagion spread beyond directly affected platforms, underscoring how DeFi’s interconnectedness can amplify shocks.
Much as traditional investors shift towards cash in uncertain times, crypto participants have responded to recent exploits by seeking refuge in stablecoins," wrote analysts led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou in the Wednesday report.
Hacks and exploits remain a central risk for crypto because they directly undermine trust in systems that rely on code rather than intermediaries. Smart contract bugs, phishing and cross-chain bridge flaws can expose large pools of locked assets, with attackers often needing to exploit just a single weak point to trigger outsized losses.
These vulnerabilities are amplified by the complexity and interconnectedness of blockchain infrastructure. Cross-chain bridges, for example, expand functionality but also increase the attack surface, and have been responsible for billions of dollars in losses because they rely on complicated designs, shared infrastructure and sometimes weak validation mechanisms.
Beyond the immediate financial damage, repeated exploits erode confidence across the ecosystem. Each major hack can drive users and institutions away, prompt stricter regulation and slow adoption, making security a foundational constraint on crypto’s growth.
The bank's analysts noted hack losses this year are tracking 2025 levels, with infrastructure and bridge exploits still the primary vulnerability despite gains in smart contract auditing.
Growth also remains muted. While TVL has partially recovered in dollar terms, it is largely unchanged in terms of ether (ETH), suggesting limited organic expansion and raising questions about DeFi’s ability to scale for institutional use, the report said.
In periods of stress, investors continue to rotate into stablecoins. Following the exploit, capital flowed from DeFi lending into Tether’s USDT, which benefits from deeper liquidity and faster off-ramps, reinforcing its role as a preferred flight-to-safety asset, the report said.

In periods of stress, investors continue to rotate into stablecoins. Following the exploit, capital flowed from DeFi lending into Tether’s USDT, which benefits from deeper liquidity and faster off-ramps, reinforcing its role as a preferred flight-to-safety asset, the report said.

The KelpDAO exploit, which the bank said erased about $20 billion in TVL within days, exposed structural risks.
An attacker breached a cross-chain bridge, minted $292 million in unbacked rsETH and used it as collateral to drain lending protocols, leaving roughly $200 million in bad debt. Contagion spread beyond directly affected platforms, underscoring how DeFi’s interconnectedness can amplify shocks.
Much as traditional investors shift towards cash in uncertain times, crypto participants have responded to recent exploits by seeking refuge in stablecoins," wrote analysts led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou in the Wednesday report.
Hacks and exploits remain a central risk for crypto because they directly undermine trust in systems that rely on code rather than intermediaries. Smart contract bugs, phishing and cross-chain bridge flaws can expose large pools of locked assets, with attackers often needing to exploit just a single weak point to trigger outsized losses.
These vulnerabilities are amplified by the complexity and interconnectedness of blockchain infrastructure. Cross-chain bridges, for example, expand functionality but also increase the attack surface, and have been responsible for billions of dollars in losses because they rely on complicated designs, shared infrastructure and sometimes weak validation mechanisms.
Beyond the immediate financial damage, repeated exploits erode confidence across the ecosystem. Each major hack can drive users and institutions away, prompt stricter regulation and slow adoption, making security a foundational constraint on crypto’s growth.

Alameda moves $16 million in Solana's SOL token for possible creditor distributionAlameda unstakes $16 million worth of Solana's SOL token, according to Arkham.
The latest move follows a familiar pattern: unstake coins and route them to addresses used to reimburse creditors. About a month ago, Alameda did the same, directing funds to the same distribution address. That prior move ultimately raised expectations that the funds were part of an ongoing creditor repayment process tied to the firm’s restructuring.
While there has been no formal confirmation that this specific tranche will be distributed imminently, the repetition of the pattern suggests continuity in the process rather than an isolated movement.
SOL, the native token of programmable blockchain Solana, has a market capitalization of $47.26 billion, which makes it the seventh-largest digital asset in the world. As of writing, SOL traded near $82, largely unchanged on a 24-hour basis, but down significantly from its all-time high of $293 hit in January last year.
Alameda, founded by Sam Bankman-Fried in 2017, began as a quantitative trading shop focused on arbitrage opportunities in digital assets, exploiting price differences across exchanges and markets.
At its peak, Alameda was a major liquidity provider across crypto markets and was deeply embedded in the ecosystem, trading billions in volume and operating across spot, derivatives, and structured products.
Alameda still holds about 3.5 million SOL worth $294.10 million, per Arkham.

M27 works 'cost us millions' as route reopensThe boss of a global haulage firm has said the two-year lane closures on part of one of the south coast's busiest roads has cost the firm £2.4m.
National Highways' work to resurface the M27 between junction five at Eastleigh and junction seven at Hedge End first began in 2024. It fully reopened from 06:00 BST, although a temporary 50mph limit is expected to be in place until the end of June.
Speaking ahead of its reopening, Bob Terris, from the Southampton-based haulage firm Meachers Global Logistics, said he was "relieved" the "critical" route would be back up and running.
National Highways praised motorists' "patience" and said the works would create "smoother, quieter and safer" journeys.
Terris estimated the disruption had cost the company, which runs 60 lorries in the Southampton area each day, £2.4m.
We know exactly what it costs for the trucks, we know how much time we're losing - it's not rocket science, it's a lot of money," he said.We know exactly what it costs for the trucks, we know how much time we're losing - it's not rocket science, it's a lot of money," he said.
Terris, who began working at Meachers in 1962 and went on to own the company, welcomed the resurfacing project but bemoaned the economic impact.
It's reduced the productivity of the vehicles, so our costs are higher, and our revenues lower because we don't get paid if they're not moving," he explained.
It's not just the trucks, it's the admin, the telecom, the systems and everything [you have to do] to accommodate all this.
It's an absolutely huge thing, but we're only one company, just multiply this across the whole region and see how much it's costing."
Professional magician Darren Snelgar said the traffic caused by the roadworks had been a problem as he has been travelling to gigs
It's been a bit of a nightmare, with the traffic building up every night around about three, half-past three, so it's been a right pain," he said.
The two-year £83m project to upgrade the motorway, which runs between the New Forest and Portsmouth, first began in March 2024.
It came as part of a National Highways scheme to replace routes built using concrete with asphalt to reduce noise and ensure the road lasted longer.
It has also involved work to improve drainage and strengthen the central reservation.
Richard Scrase, programme delivery manager at National Highways, said they were "grateful" for motorists' "continued patience".
These improvements have created a smoother, quieter and safer journey for drivers, while helping the road last for generations to come," he added.

Algeria’s ex-minister of industry jailed in high-profile corruption caseFormer Algerian Industry Minister Ali Aoun has been sentenced to five years in prison after being convicted of corruption, local media reported.
Aoun, who was the minister for industry and pharmaceutical production between 2022 and 2024, was jailed on Monday in a high-profile corruption case that saw several senior figures convicted, the Algerian online news site Dzair Tube reported
According to the news site, prosecutors had sought a 12-year sentence for the former minister, and 10 year sentences for several other defendants. Aoun was also ordered by the Economic and Financial Criminal Court in the capital, Algiers, to pay a fine of 1 million Algerian dinar (approximately $7,500
Local media said the case revolved around the irregular sales of ferrous and non-ferrous metal waste in violation of public asset management rules
“The case centred on accusations of corruption, mismanagement and the unlawful awarding of industrial and investment contracts, notably involving the trade in ferrous waste and copper residues,” Dzair Tube reported
The AFP news agency said that several other officials were also convicted, though some were acquitted due to a lack of evidence
Among those convicted was the former minister’s son, Mehdi Aoun, who was handed a six-year prison term as part of the same case, while investors, an official at a state-owned business and a prominent businessman received sentences of between three and 10 years, according to Dzair Tube
The case and the convictions come amid an ongoing anticorruption drive launched by Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, who came to power in 2019 amid widespread pro-democracy protests.
Tebboune’s campaign against corruption has targeted senior officials, including from the era of former President Abdelaziz Bouteflika, AFP reports.

Ships, Signals, and Tension: What’s Really Happening in the Strait of Hormuz
I spent the whole weekend glued to the news, just hitting refresh over and over, hoping things would chill out. Nope. One update says the Strait of Hormuz is business as usual, the next it’s like, “Surprise, here’s a mini war zone.” That kind of back-and-forth usually screams chaos behind the scenes—like, not just fog of war, but everyone pulling in different directions and accidentally stepping on each other’s toes.
Here’s where things get weird: The US isn’t actually shutting down the strait, which would turn into a legal train wreck because, hey, you can’t just block a major global shipping lane and pretend international law doesn’t exist. So they’re going with Plan B—basically making life miserable for ships headed to Iranian ports, but doing it from a distance. It’s all very technical and low-key. Ships get a heads-up. Most bail out early. The stubborn ones get a little taste of escalation, ratcheted up one notch at a time.
And that ramping up? Legally murky, but not totally wild. Firing on a ship isn’t straight-up illegal if you’re trying to enforce a legit blockade and you follow all the warning steps. Going by what’s out there, the US isn’t freelancing. They’re ticking the boxes—“Hey, turn around,” “Seriously, last chance,” and then, maybe, shots fired with a side of restraint.
Iran, on the other hand, just feels all over the place. Shooting at random commercial ships in a crucial shipping lane? Good luck justifying that under international law. You can’t just start blasting at neutral tankers because you’re in a mood.
So really, it’s not just saber-rattling. It’s all about sending signals—basically, high-stakes political negotiation playing out on the ocean, with warning shots taking the place of awkward small talk. And when those signals get scrambled? Sometimes people stop talking and start shooting. That’s what we’re watching. #Write2Earn #orocryptotrends

Buenas tardes mis Troyanos me pareció importante mostrarles la siguiente comparación .
Oro Vs Bitcoin
El oro y el Bitcoin son activos de refugio y reserva de valor con escasez limitada, pero difieren drásticamente en madurez y volatilidad. El oro ofrece estabilidad histórica (5,000 años) y protección contra la inflación, mientras que el Bitcoin ofrece alta rentabilidad potencial, descentralización y portabilidad, pero con una volatilidad extrema y riesgo especulativo.
*Comparación Detallada:
-Naturaleza: El oro es un activo físico tangible; el Bitcoin es oro digital descentralizado.
-Volatilidad: La volatilidad anualizada del oro es baja (12%-15%), mientras que la del Bitcoin es muy alta (60%-80% o más).
-Historial: El oro es un refugio confiable de larga trayectoria, mientras que Bitcoin tiene menos de dos décadas.
-Almacenamiento y Transferencia: El oro físico es costoso de almacenar y difícil de transportar; Bitcoin se almacena digitalmente y se transfiere al instante globalmente.
-Escasez: Ambos son escasos: el oro por su abundancia limitada en la corteza terrestre, y Bitcoin por su límite de 21 millones de unidades.
¿Cuál elegir?
-Oro: Mejor para preservar patrimonio a largo plazo y reducir riesgo (inversor conservador).
-Bitcoin: Mejor para buscar altos rendimientos, diversificación tecnológica y coberturas ante crisis globales (inversor arriesgado).
A mediados de abril de 2026, el oro mostraba fuerza con un aumento del 46% anual, mientras que Bitcoin experimentaba correcciones tras alcanzar máximos.

ARK Just Tweaked Its Crypto Bet—and It’s Not as Boring as It Sounds
I saw that headline and just laughed. Honestly? It was only a matter of time.
ARK is ditching Circle, which is classic Cathie Wood if you've been paying attention. They move fast—sometimes too fast. But there’s still that weird "vibe shift" when it actually happens. It’s like watching a friend who’s always loud suddenly go dead silent. It makes you wonder. What do they know that we don't?
And now they’re doubling down on Bullish.
That’s where it gets messy. It’s not just swapping one ticker for another; it feels like they’re betting on a totally different center of gravity. Circle is basically crypto plumbing. Essential? Sure. Boring? Absolutely. But Bullish? That’s where the chaos lives. Trading, speculation, the stuff that keeps people up at 3 AM for no reason.
Maybe that’s the play.
Stablecoins are the utilities. You need the lights to stay on, but nobody gets rich off the power company. Exchanges are the wild west. That’s where the volume—and the drama—actually happens.
But look, let’s be real. ARK’s timing is... questionable at best. They’ve had plenty of "genius" ideas that went absolutely nowhere. I wouldn’t treat this like some divine signal. It’s just a fragment of a puzzle that never really stays put.
Honestly, I’m just left with questions.
Are they over stability? Are they just chasing the traders because the "backbone" of the system is too slow? Or is this just some portfolio spring cleaning disguised as a "grand strategy"?
Hard to say.
But it definitely makes you look twice at where the real momentum is hiding—whether it’s in the boring, solid stuff... or the part of the market that never stops moving.

It’s like watching a friend who’s always loud suddenly go dead silent. It makes you wonder. What do they know that we don't?
And now they’re doubling down on Bullish.
That’s where it gets messy. It’s not just swapping one ticker for another; it feels like they’re betting on a totally different center of gravity. Circle is basically crypto plumbing. Essential? Sure. Boring? Absolutely. But Bullish? That’s where the chaos lives. Trading, speculation, the stuff that keeps people up at 3 AM for no reason.
Maybe that’s the play.
Stablecoins are the utilities. You need the lights to stay on, but nobody gets rich off the power company. Exchanges are the wild west. That’s where the volume—and the drama—actually happens.
But look, let’s be real. ARK’s timing is... questionable at best. They’ve had plenty of "genius" ideas that went absolutely nowhere. I wouldn’t treat this like some divine signal. It’s just a fragment of a puzzle that never really stays put.
Honestly, I’m just left with questions.
Are they over stability? Are they just chasing the traders because the "backbone" of the system is too slow? Or is this just some portfolio spring cleaning disguised as a "grand strategy"?
Hard to say.
But it definitely makes you look twice at where the real momentum is hiding—whether it’s in the boring, solid stuff... or the part of the market that never stops moving.

ARK Just Tweaked Its Crypto Bet—and It’s Not as Boring as It Sounds

Markets on Edge: Macro Tension Rising While DeFi Gets a Reality Check#KelpDAOFacesAttack
Markets are so tight lately, it’s almost like they’re all standing in a hallway, nobody breathing, just waiting for something—anything—to happen. I can’t shake the feeling that every number, every headline, is loaded. You’ve got those big macro tremors—take the Strait of Hormuz, for example. The news keeps floating by, but, I don’t know, it’s not background noise anymore. If something happens there… well, inflation isn’t just a chart line. Suddenly, everything you buy gets more expensive and nobody acts surprised. Central banks love that, right? They swoop in, start tinkering. It always ricochets all the way back to us.
And then, crypto. Ah, crypto. You’d think by now we’d be used to its fool’s trapeze act, but nope. Just recently, the Kelp DAO exploit—almost $292 million, just gone... Like someone cut a rope holding up a piano and didn’t bother to yell “Look out below!” There’s this domino thing that happens. Aave jumps in, clamps down, trader liquidity evaporates—blink and you’ll miss it—literally billions just vaporizing in moments. I swear, people keep calling this “volatility.” No. That’s a blood vessel bursting.
Here’s what actually eats at me: it’s not the money itself, or well, not just the money. It’s how everything just melts. Poof—trust gone. I mean, these collateral chains get so elaborate you could mistake them for modern art. And just like that, you realize, oh, all this stuff? It’s toothpicks stacked. Looks sturdy until it doesn’t.
I always tell myself, “Hey, this works,”… up until I see it doesn’t (usually while clutching my coffee, staring at price charts, trying to breathe). And it doesn’t go out with a whimper, either. It snaps—like an old guitar string mid-song.
You can feel the tilt already. Borrowing gets pricier, and money—real, hard cash—starts behaving like water seeping through cracks, always finding the quickest escape route. Suddenly, people don’t want to play musical chairs with leverage. Risk? People actually notice it, now, price it like it’s heavy.
And if you close one eye and squint, you see it—that rising pressure. Not just from outside, with oil and headlines and geopolitics, but inside, where the crypto machinery keeps rattling. The seams are starting to show.
#Write2Earn #orocryptotrends
You get the urge to relax—tell yourself, “Maybe it’ll settle down.” But honestly? This doesn’t feel like the time for comfort. Not unless your idea of comfort is sleeping on a bed of thumbtacks.

You get the urge to relax—tell yourself, “Maybe it’ll settle down.” But honestly? This doesn’t feel like the time for comfort. Not unless your idea of comfort is sleeping on a bed of thumbtacks.Man, I probably spent way too much time glued to those altcoin charts—and honestly, it wasn’t even because they were interesting at first. Far from it. They were just... flat. But for some reason, staring at those patterns, a weird sense of déjà vu crept in. Not the spooky kind, more like “hey, haven’t I seen this movie before?” but with price lines. I usually brush off that kind of gut feeling, chalk it up to seeing what you want to see—you know, classic confirmation bias. But this time was different.
Suddenly, I hit this wall. You know the moment—the relentless downhill slide that just grinds for months, everything bleeding out till the chart basically flatlines. It’s boring. Dull. The kind of market action that nobody tweets about because, well, nothing seems to happen… but weirdly, under the surface, a lot is bubbling.
Reminds me a lot of those early months in 2020. Not the fireworks. The snooze-fest before things took off. I remember sitting there, just as bored, watching tickers like paint dry. But looking back—man, that was when stuff was actually changing.
Take ARB. It’s the messiest example I can think of. I mean, the thing nosedived, lost over 80% of its value—a graveyard for hype and hopium. Most people bailed. Close the chart and don’t look back, right? But then, bizarrely, these tiny quirks started popping up. Suddenly price inches above a moving average, RSI just refusing to make new lows. Tiny things. If you blink, you miss them.
But, here’s the wild part: I keep circling back to this—the real flips, the actual turning points? They rarely show up with a headline. No trumpets, no Reddit threads. It’s just quiet. You squint, scratch your head, and wonder if your eyes are playing tricks.
Look, don’t get me wrong—I’m not jumping up and down here. I’m still skeptical. Way skeptical. It’s easy to spot patterns, connect dots, and suddenly convince yourself you’ve cracked the code. I’ve seen that script. “Oh, look, early signals, new phase…” blah blah blah. Sometimes that’s all it is—a head fake the market cooked up just to humble you. Been there, felt that sting. Plenty of times.
People love to talk about this so-called “base-building” thing. Like it’s a clean process: two to four months, nice horizontal movement, accumulation, then BOOM, breakout. But if you’ve actually lived through it? It’s chaos. Stops and starts, weird shakeouts, prices drifting sideways till even the die-hards tune out, and just when your guard drops—smack—they knock you out of your position.
Bitcoin echoing the same sleepy price action at the same time? Sure, it means something. Maybe. Or maybe it just makes things louder than they really are, because let’s be real—correlation can mess with your head, fool you into seeing connections that aren’t there.
And those “bull case” projections? Up 150%, 300%, even 400%? That stuff always makes me laugh—half nervous, half suspicious. Sure, anything can happen, but those numbers? They’re like catnip for traders. Pull you in before anything’s even confirmed.
So, what’s it all mean? For me, it’s not really bullish, not full-on bearish either. It’s just… early. Way too early. That itchy, in-between stage where you know something’s brewing, but you’re never sure if you’ll nail the timing or whiff completely.

$BTC If you zoom in on the recent BTC/USDT price moves—hourly, daily, even those 4-hour candles—there’s this weird tension just under the surface. You get that sense, the one you get before something big shifts in mood. Like earlier, I was scrolling through the 4h chart and started spotting that green, almost staircase-like setup rising after all that hanging around near $74k. It’s one of those classic patterns, but every time, especially when the volume starts creeping up during recovery, it hits a bit differently.
But honestly, the price pumps are almost the least interesting part for me right now. What catches my eye is the stuff running underneath—the backbone. Lately, there’s all this attention on decentralized verification, identity stuff, protocols that put trust before hype. Every time the market twitches these days, my brain drifts to the behind-the-scenes action; things like selective disclosure, modular security, these are what’s holding everything together. I mean, we’re not all just chasing wicks anymore. The big story is how institutions keep sliding toward tokenizing real-world assets and actually using on-chain data you can check and trust.
So, I’m still holding. Watching those moving averages (MA(7) and MA(25) if you’re curious) just kind of scoop the price up—almost supporting it. Feels like there’s finally some distance from those desperate “get-rich-quick” models. I could just be wearing rose-colored glasses, but man, it all seems more grown-up this time.

Being filmed in my home was torturous, voyeurism victim saysA woman who was secretly filmed in her own home has said the experience has "taken over her life" and left her feeling unsafe
Lucy Domaille, from Guernsey, has waived her anonymity as the victim of a sexual offence to speak publicly about the impact voyeurism has had on her and her family
I don't sleep," she said. "Every noise, every time the door opens, you just feel like someone is watching you 24/7
It's taken over my life completely. It's consumed my mind."
In October last year, Guernsey Police told Lucy she had been the victim of voyeurism
A man she had known socially for about 25 years had secretly filmed her getting out of the shower at her home, through a gap in her curtains as he crouched outside her window.
For Lucy, the incident has occupied her every waking thought since
She said: "I'm just not the same person. It's soul-destroying, it's torturous
When you go home, that is supposed to be the place that you feel safe, and I've lost that completely," she explained.
It has also stripped her of her safety.
I'm obsessed. I don't sleep... I have lost all of that."
Lucy was walking round a supermarket when her husband called her to tell her two plain clothes officers were at their home and asking to speak to her.
She later learned she had been a victim of Kirk Bishop, whose crimes she had first seen reported in a social media post by Guernsey Police the previous month.
She said the "emotional trauma" of it meant she was "not the same person - I don't think I ever will be".
As a mother of two young children, she said it had also changed the way she interacted with them at home.
She said: "Sometimes a child gets out of a bath and they'll run down the hallway to their bedroom with no clothes on. I don't want that now.
They've taken away my children's innocence. I'm constantly making sure they're covered."
If you are changing a law based on a crime that someone has committed, surely they should be punished in line with that?" she said.
Bishop is due to be sentenced on 15 May.
Lucy concluded: "One of the best things about Guernsey was that you felt safe. I've lost all of that."

South Africa names apartheid-era politician as new ambassador to the USSouth Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa has appointed Roelf Meyer, who served in the last government of the apartheid era, as his new ambassador to the US, his office has said.
The country has not had a top envoy in the US since Ebrahim Rasool was expelled last year after he accused President Donald Trump of trying to "project white victimhood as a dog whistle".
This worsened already strained relations between the nations, which took a downward spiral after Trump's return to office last year.
Ramaphosa's spokesperson Vincent Magwenya confirmed Meyer's appointment to the BBC, saying it would be "immediate".
"I can confirm that President Cyril Ramaphosa has appointed Meyer as South Africa's ambassador to the US," he said
Meyer, 78, played a key role as one of the chief mediators, alongside Ramaphosa, during the talks to end the racist system of white-minority rule known as apartheid in South Africa in the 1990s
He was the chief representative of the National Party (NP), which introduced apartheid, while Ramaphosa represented the African National Congress led by Nelson Mandela.
Meyer was constitutional affairs minister in the last NP government and went on to join the government of national unity formed in 1994 when Mandela became president

Popular DeFi platform warns users to stay away from its site after security breachThe team that helps operate the platform, CoW Swap, said that it was working to resolve the issue for the DEX aggregator.
DNS hijacking allows attackers to redirect users from a legitimate domain to a malicious lookalike site, often with the goal of draining crypto wallets or harvesting private data. The attack vector has become a persistent weak point in decentralized finance, where users typically rely on web-based interfaces to access otherwise secure smart contracts.
CoW Swap operates as a decentralized exchange aggregator, sourcing liquidity across venues and using a mechanism known as “Coincidence of Wants” to match trades directly between users or batch them for more efficient execution. Orders are handled by competing “solvers” that optimize trade outcomes, a design intended to reduce slippage and limit exposure to maximal extractable value (MEV).
MEV is a practice on the blockchain where bots reorder transactions to extract profit at users’ expense, making mitigation key to ensuring fair pricing and protecting traders.
The platform is governed by CoW DAO, a decentralized autonomous organization spun out of the Gnosis ecosystem. The project has positioned itself as a user-protective alternative in DeFi trading, emphasizing execution quality and fairer trading outcomes
We are now actively working to resolve the situation. Please continue to refrain from using swap dot cow dot fi until we confirm that it is safe to use,” the team wrote on X.

# What is Near Protocol? Information About Token NEAR$NEAR
## What is NEAR Protocol?
NEAR Protocol is a blockchain platform that employs a public proof-of-stake and sharded architecture. Designed for high scalability and cost-efficiency, it provides an environment for developers to easily create decentralized applications (dApps). Unlike side chains or specialized blockchains, NEAR operates as a standalone Layer-1 protocol, supporting the Open Web platform independently.

NEAR Protocol is structured to address system design challenges, with a strong focus on developing scalable and efficient dApp platforms. Its organization is geared towards continuous protocol development and maintenance, ensuring longevity and relevance.
**Community-Driven Cloud Platform:**
The platform functions like a community-managed cloud service, leveraging a novel consensus algorithm and sharded architecture to achieve scalability and meet high-level design objectives.
### Core Technologies of NEAR
**Sharding:**
NEAR utilizes a sharding mechanism to distribute computational tasks across multiple parallel shards, enhancing scalability.
**Consensus Algorithm (Nightshade):**
The Nightshade algorithm achieves consensus across all nodes, ensuring security and efficiency.
**Staking and Game Theory:**
Stakers are selected through a secure random process, optimizing the distribution of resources and incentivizing good behavior among participants.
**Randomness:**
The use of an unpredictable random approach further secures the protocol.
