$BTC

Bitcoin (BTC) es conocida como la primera criptomoneda digital de fuente abierta y peer-to-peer desarrollada y lanzada por un grupo de programadores independientes desconocidos llamado Satoshi Nakamoto en el 2008. Bitcoin no tiene ningún servidor centralizado utilizado para su emisión, transacciones y almacenamiento, ya que utiliza una tecnología de base de datos pública de red distribuida llamada blockchain, que requiere una firma electrónica y está respaldada por un protocolo de prueba de trabajo para proporcionar la seguridad y legitimidad de las transacciones monetarias. La emisión de Bitcoin es realizada por usuarios con capacidades mineras y está limitada a 21 millones de monedas. Actualmente, la capitalización bursátil de Bitcoin supera los $138 mil millones y esta es la clase de moneda digital más popular. La compra y venta de criptomonedas está disponible a través de plataformas especiales de bolsas de Bitcoin o cajeros automáticos.

#FOMCMeeting

The Federal Reserve evaluates the impact of tariffs

In recent weeks, Federal Reserve officials have been reluctant to lower interest rates from their currently high levels, as they are concerned that Trump's tariffs may reignite high inflation, which has been reduced at an almost unstoppable pace from the Federal Reserve's target of 2% per year, after soaring in the post-pandemic era. For his part, Trump has frequently criticized the Federal Reserve for not cutting rates this year, even going so far as to label its chairman, Jerome Powell, as an "idiot".

A lower federal funds interest rate could boost the economy and encourage job creation, but it could also alleviate some of the downward pressure on inflation.

Fed officials have been under a "communication silence" during the past week leading up to the meeting, but before going silent, members of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) said they wanted to see how the economy responded to Trump's tariffs before making any policy decisions.

Bitcoin (BTC) is known as the first open-source and peer-to-peer digital cryptocurrency developed and launched by a group of unknown independent programmers called Satoshi Nakamoto in 2008. Bitcoin has no centralized server used for its issuance, transactions, and storage, as it uses a public distributed network database technology called blockchain, which requires an electronic signature and is backed by a proof-of-work protocol to provide the security and legitimacy of monetary transactions. The issuance of Bitcoin is carried out by users with mining capabilities and is limited to 21 million coins. Currently, the market capitalization of Bitcoin exceeds $138 billion, and this is the most popular type of digital currency.

#USChinaTradeTalks

A new round of talks aimed at resolving the trade war between the US and China has started in central London.

A senior US delegation including Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick met Chinese representatives such as Vice Premier He Lifeng at Lancaster House to resolve tension between the world's two largest economies, which is threatening global growth.

Chinese exports of rare earths, which are crucial for modern technology, as well as Beijing's access to US products, including computer chips, are expected to be high on the agenda.

Last month, Washington and Beijing agreed a temporary truce over trade tariffs but each country has since accused the other of breaching the deal.

The US says China has been slow to release exports of rare earth metals and magnets which are essential for manufacturing everything from smartphones to electric vehicles.

Meanwhile, Washington has restricted China's access to US goods such as semiconductors and other related technologies linked to artificial intelligence (AI).

#CryptoCharts101

A cryptocurrency chart is a visual representation that shows the historical price evolution of a cryptocurrency, or a set of cryptocurrencies, over time. It allows for the analysis of price patterns, identification of trends, and making more informed investment decisions.

Preparation:

What information do they show?

Cryptocurrency charts typically display the price of the cryptocurrency on the vertical axis and time (hours, days, weeks, etc.) on the horizontal axis.

Types of charts:

There are several types of cryptocurrency charts, with the most common being candlestick charts, bar charts, and line charts.

How are they used?

Cryptocurrency charts are an essential tool for technical analysis, allowing for the identification of price patterns, such as bullish or bearish trends, and making more informed investment decisions.

#TradingMistakes101

Common Trading Mistakes:

Lack of Trading Plan:

Not having a defined plan can lead to impulsive decision-making and a lack of discipline in trading.

Emotional Trading:

Letting emotions, such as fear or greed, influence decisions can lead to irrational choices.

Poor Risk Management:

Not setting risk limits can expose traders to significant losses.

Ignoring Volatility:

Not taking into account market volatility can lead to prediction errors and missed opportunities.

Over-Diversification or Under-Diversification:

An overly diversified portfolio can dilute opportunities, while a portfolio that is too concentrated can be vulnerable to market movements.

Not Cutting Losses:

Not recognizing when a trade is going against you and failing to cut losses can lead to much larger losses.

Not Maintaining Control of Exposure:

Risking a large portion of capital on a single trade can lead to significant losses in the event of a negative trade.

Uncontrolled Leverage:

Using leverage without a complete understanding of the risks can lead to substantial losses.

Not Conducting Research:

Not thoroughly researching the market or asset being traded can lead to uninformed decisions.

Following the Herd:

Crypto fees and commissions: what they are and what they are for

We help you understand the variable costs of operating with cryptocurrencies, which depend not only on each blockchain network but also on the dapps we use.

‍"Ethereum gas is very high"... "Trading on Solana is cheaper for me"... "I only play play-to-earn on the Binance Smart Chain because of the fees". If you've been around the crypto ecosystem for a while, you certainly hear these types of phrases quite often.

Fees are amounts paid when operating with cryptocurrencies (and with other types of blockchain tools, such as NFTs), and are a daily matter for anyone dedicated to trading, or for those who are constantly trying to optimize their token and cryptocurrency portfolios.

These amounts represent a payment for using a network or a crypto tool based on blockchain, and are generally allocated to its maintenance: in some cases, they cover the mining costs of the operations and in others represent a payment for the services offered by a platform, such as an exchange.

‍Where the price of a fee comes from

‍Keep in mind that these fees serve to regulate two aspects of the crypto ecosystem. On one hand, having a cost to "do things" on blockchain networks keeps the environment cleaner and more serious. And, on the other, it finances a transparent system of validation and recording of operations, known as mining.

#CryptoSecurity101

In order to delve into the subject of security tokens, we must first establish the foundations of the concept of a token. A token is a digital asset that is developed on the blockchain of an existing cryptocurrency; in most cases, it is based on the Ethereum network and its smart contracts. Security tokens, like other tokens, are offered in an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) or, as we know it in Spain, in an Initial Coin Offering. Their main objective in this process is to create a new way of financing to fund startups or other innovative projects.

Now let's define more concretely what a security token is.

A security token is simply a type of cryptocurrency token linked to traditional securities, meaning they are tied to financial assets, which gives the owner a series of rights and obligations (right to dividends or to vote).

#CEXvsDEX101

Centralized Exchanges (CEX) and Decentralized Exchanges (DEX) are two types of cryptocurrency trading platforms with key differences in their operation, security, and user experience.

In summary:

CEX:

These are intermediary platforms where a central company manages transactions and users' funds. They offer greater liquidity, ease of use, and regulatory compliance, but are more susceptible to cyber attacks and data breaches.

DEX:

These are peer-to-peer platforms that use smart contracts to facilitate transactions directly between users without intermediaries. They offer greater privacy and control over funds, but may have lower liquidity, more complex interfaces, and a higher risk of vulnerabilities in smart contracts.

#Liquidity101

Liquidity management is essential in financial planning and decision-making for businesses. It focuses on the company's ability to meet its current obligations, which are usually short-term.

What is a liquidity ratio?
The liquidity ratio is a metric that measures a company's ability to meet its short-term financial obligations. It indicates the financial health of the company by evaluating its current assets, such as cash, marketable securities, and accounts receivable, in comparison to its short-term liabilities, such as short-term debt and other payables.

The most common liquidity ratio is the acid-test ratio. This measures a company's ability to settle its short-term debts with liquid assets, such as cash equivalents or working capital. Another popular measure is the current ratio, which assesses whether a company has enough current assets to cover its short-term liabilities.

#OrderTypes101
Order Types:
1. Market Order:
Executed at the best available price in the market at the time of the order.
Guarantees execution, but not the price.
Useful when the order needs to be executed quickly.
2. Limit Order:
Allows the trader to specify a maximum price (for buying) or a minimum price (for selling).
The order is only executed if the price reaches or exceeds the limit price.
Useful for controlling the transaction price.
3. Stop Loss Order:
Triggers a sell order when the price reaches a specific level (stop price).
Helps to limit losses in case of a price drop.
It is a conditional order that executes when the price reaches the stop level.
4. Take Profit Order:
Triggers a sell order when the price reaches a predefined profit level.
Helps to secure profits.
It is a conditional order that executes when the price reaches the profit level.
5. Stop Limit Order:
Combines the stop order with the limit order.
The order is activated when the price reaches the stop price, and then it executes as a limit order at the specified price or better.
Useful for controlling both the price and the activation of the order.
6. Trailing Stop Order:
Automatically adjusts to a specific level below the market price (for buy orders) or above the market price (for sell orders).
Helps to protect profits as the price rises or falls.
The stop loss moves with the market price.

#TradingTypes101

Trading types are diverse and can be categorized by duration, strategy, or the type of market they involve. Common types include day trading, swin g trading, position trading, and algorithmic trading, each with varying risk levels and timeframes. Additionally, there are types like technical trading, fundamental trading, and options trading, which differ in their approach to analyzing markets.

Swing Trading:

Position Trading:
Focuses on long-term investments, holding positions for months or even years.
Scalping:
Exploits minute price differences to make small profits, often involving frequent trading.
Algorithmic Trading:
Uses computer programs to execute trades automatically based on pre-defined rules.
Technical Trading:
Relies on technical analysis of price charts and patterns to identify trading opportunities.
Fundamental Trading:
Analyzes economic factors, company financials, and industry trends to make trading decisions.
Option Trading:
Involves buying and selling contracts that give the right (but not the obligation) to buy or sell an asset at a specific price within a set time.
Momentum Trading:
Seeks to capitalize on strong price trends, either uptrends or downtrends.

purchase of Bitcoin by the company amid the recent drop from the all-time high of $ 112,000 reached on May 22.

"I only buy Bitcoin with money that I can afford to lose," Saylor wrote to his 4.3 million followers in a post on X.

The company's most recent purchase of 7,390 BTC on May 19, valued at nearly $765 million, raised Strategy's total holdings to 576,230 BTC.

If Strategy completes the acquisition on May 26, it will mark the seventh consecutive week of Bitcoin purchases for the company.

#BinancePizza

May 22 is not just any date for the crypto ecosystem: it commemorates Bitcoin Pizza Day, the milestone that marked the first recorded purchase with Bitcoin. Exactly 15 years ago, Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas, a gesture that seemed trivial in 2010, but today symbolizes the beginning of a global financial revolution.

On the occasion of this anniversary, Binance, the leading global provider of crypto and blockchain infrastructure, is driving a series of celebrations in Latin America and around the world, reinforcing its commitment to the mass adoption of cryptocurrencies.

From two pizzas to one billion dollars

What at the time was 10,000 BTC for a dinner worth USD $ 41, today represents a fortune exceeding USD $ 1.000 billion. This contrast reflects the exponential growth of Bitcoin and how it transitioned from a disruptive idea to becoming a significant financial asset in the global economy.

are known for entering the market during periods of euphoria, usually after strong monthly gains or a new all-time high. This time is no different, with Bitcoin approaching $104,000 on May 14 as mainstream interest and retail activity continue to lag.

Analysts estimate that in 2025, retail investors were the largest net sellers of BTC, while institutions were the primary buyers. But if historical patterns hold, a surge in retail appetite is likely to occur approximately a week after Bitcoin surpasses the $109,350 mark.

#CryptoRegulation

During a panel on May 14 at Consensus 2025 in Toronto, she stated that the state of New York is frequently asked to provide guidance to regulators. "Regarding federal regulation and legislation [...] members of Congress often come to us [NYDFS] asking about our process, our regulations, about guidance, how they should be thinking about legislation," Harris said.
