#TrumpVsMusk 🧨 Musk vs Trump — and the USA is already cracking at the seams
28 days left until the vote that could collapse the budget, suspend NASA flights, and shatter BTC into pieces. But no one thinks it will actually happen...
$3 trillion at risk. SpaceX could be 'seized'. Tesla — without subsidies. And Musk? He is already threatening to stop Dragon. And hints that this is just the beginning. — who are these 5 senators and why do they decide more than the president — how the Musk-Trump conflict is breaking 'power by agreement' — what does $600 billion in liquidity have to do with Bitcoin — why the deadline of July 4 is the point after which scenarios will follow the Chinese model — and how funds, not bloggers, are preparing for this
#CryptoSecurity101 📱Bitcoin is stuck at $105K — CryptoQuant warns of market overheating
In particular, demand for BTC over the last 30 days has reached 229,000 coins — almost like the peak in December. Whale balances are also increasing, but the accumulation rate is slowing down.
Analysts warn: there is a risk of a pullback.

#CEXvsDEX101 🧐Ethereum Pectra update has become a tool for hackers — Wintermute
The anticipated update EIP-7702 was supposed to make using Ethereum more convenient. But instead — hackers are massively stealing cryptocurrency.
According to Wintermute:
— 97% of delegations are used for stealing funds — 80% of attacks are carried out through the same malicious script — CrimeEnjoyor — The script automatically 'cleans' wallets with lost private keys.
In particular, one user lost nearly $150,000 due to a phishing transaction. There are suspicions that the service Inferno Drainer is behind all this.
#TradingTypes101 🤷♂️SEC questions the legitimacy of crypto-ETFs with staking
▪️The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has questioned the launch of ETFs on Ethereum and Solana from REX Financial and Osprey Funds.
▪️These funds offer income from staking, but the regulator believes they may not meet the requirements for ETFs under U.S. federal law. Therefore, the launch has been temporarily postponed.
▪️SEC Commissioner Caroline Crenshaw referred to this case as an example of the regulator's ambiguous approach to the crypto market. According to her, crypto assets are "sometimes recognized as securities, sometimes not — depending on convenience"🤔
In addition, Changpeng Zhao spoke at Token2049 in Dubai:
"You press a button — you create a token with a name. But the usefulness of 99.99% of these tokens is like garbage. I want to see real AI agents that do something and bring value".
The founder of Binance also noted that artificial intelligence will radically change the experience of interacting with cryptocurrencies: it will improve app interfaces, technical support, risk monitoring, and more.
#Trump100Days The USA is on the brink of a political upheaval against Trump. Interview with Bezsmertny
When Trump promised "peace in one day" in Ukraine, he relied on the principle of "peace through strength." But 100 days in power have shown: instead of strength — concessions, instead of pressure on the Kremlin — an attempt to appease Putin at Ukraine's expense.
At the same time, the Kremlin continues its game of stalling. Publicly accepting the idea of direct negotiations with Zelensky, who was recently labeled an illegitimate president in Russia.
Ukrainian diplomat and politician Roman Bezsmertny shared his thoughts on these and other current issues in an exclusive interview with OBOZ.UA.

According to a study by Cambridge University, the use of renewable energy in Bitcoin mining has increased to 52.4%. In comparison, just in 2022, this figure was only 37.6%.
This means that most miners are transitioning to renewable energy sources — hydropower, solar panels, wind energy, etc.
For the market, this means: less pressure from regulators, a better reputation for BTC in the long term, and increased interest from ESG investors.
