Token burning sometimes… is fake. Some projects announce that they are "burning" tokens, but: they may burn tokens that are not theirs, but belong to those who lost access. Or they send tokens to controlled "dead" addresses. Sometimes this is simply used as a publicity stunt.
● Reminder ● You may lose tokens… if you enter the wrong address. For example, by sending BTC to an ETH address, you lose coins forever. Be careful, even from seemingly minor or silly mistakes, no one is immune.
● Interesting fact ● Tens of millions of dollars are lost each year due to network errors, token incompatibility, and carelessness.
Most miners $BTC are located in non-obvious countries. After the ban on mining in China, the largest hashing powers moved to Kazakhstan, Iran, the USA, and Ethiopia. Mining today is a business with government support in some countries that receive free or cheap energy.
USDT (Tether) and USDC (USD Coin) are popular stablecoins denominated in US dollars, but they have significant differences that may affect your choice depending on what matters more to you — liquidity, transparency, or decentralization. Comparison: $USDT •Transparency of reserves is limited, audits are not always published.
What are stablecoins? Stablecoins are cryptocurrencies whose price is tied to stable assets, most often the US dollar (USD), but can also be tied to the euro, gold, or oil. Their main goal is to avoid sharp price fluctuations, like those of Bitcoin or Ether.
Dollars held under stablecoins are not always real. Stablecoins like USDT, USDC claim 100% reserves, but: often these reserves consist of corporate papers, bonds, rather than real dollars. This makes them vulnerable during liquidity crises, as seen during the brief "depegging" of USDT in 2022.
Do you hold any assets in stablecoins? I am not a risk-taking person, so for me, it's some kind of stability, maybe confidence, but in reality, it's fear; I have regretted many times that I frequently held assets in stablecoins. But often it saved me as well, so it’s two sides of the same coin. What do you prefer more (though the difference is small) but still prefer $USDT or $USDC ? By the way, the next post will be dedicated to stablecoins. #stablecoin
As a beginner in this field, namely writing posts, engaging the reader, I am trying a little and looking for interesting facts, useful facts, and soon I will start sharing my personal opinion on each situation that occurs. But for this, as they say, I need to test the waters and get more involved in this area of activity. So if someone has already gone through this stage, I would be grateful for any advice, any criticism. I like that there are many people here and most of them are for real. You learn something new, you look at the situation from a different angle, so I hope that my content will also be useful and interesting. #Write2Earn
The anonymity of cryptocurrencies is a myth. Bitcoin and Ethereum are not anonymous; they are pseudonymous. All transactions are visible, and wallets can be traced back to individuals. Intelligence agencies and analytical companies (Chainalysis, Elliptic) successfully track even mixing services. Truly anonymous networks are Monero (XMR) and Zcash (ZEC), but even they can be partially compromised due to user errors. #CryptoFacts
Blockchain is not eternal: old blocks can be lost.
Some users believe that blockchain is "forever." In reality, nodes are not required to store the entire blockchain, and old blocks are sometimes discarded to save space.
This does not threaten the network, but part of the history actually disappears (if not preserved by archival nodes).
And briefly, what is blockchain: ■ Blockchain is a digital database in which information is stored in the form of a chain of blocks. Each block contains: a list of transactions, a timestamp, a link (hash) to the previous block. These blocks are connected in a chain — and you cannot change one block without changing all subsequent ones, which makes blockchain very reliable and secure.
•Key properties: Decentralization — stored not on a single server, but immediately by thousands of users. Transparency — anyone can verify any transaction. Impossibility of forgery — thanks to cryptography. •Example: When you send bitcoin to a friend: 1. Your transaction goes into a block. 2. The block is added to the chain. 3. All participants in the network receive an updated copy. #blockchain
99% of cryptocurrencies ever created are already dead. According to Coinopsy, out of over 24,000 tokens that have ever existed, more than 20,000 are no longer active (scams, abandoned, or not traded). Many were created solely for the purpose of pumping and scamming.
Have you ever fallen for scam projects, scam coins, or just been deceived in general? I have been clean so far, although there have been attempts, but there is some feeling of distrust towards people. The last time someone wanted to buy my nickname on Telegram for 5000 $TON but always remember: "If you don't see a fool in the market, then maybe it's you" - Warren Buffett.
● Interesting Thoughts ● Since tonight is dedicated to $BTC let's discuss the theory about the creator of the most famous cryptocurrency, namely: Satoshi Nakamoto could have been... a collective. Despite Satoshi being presented as one person, the style of his writings, code, and knowledge in cryptography, economics, and programming indicate a multidisciplinary team. Some even believe that it could have been a government project (NSA, MI6, etc.)
My thoughts are this: if it is one person, then he is extraordinarily smart and lucky, perhaps even a time traveler (just a joke), honestly I never asked myself such a question before, but now I have an interest in learning as many facts as possible about this mysterious person. But I still tend to lean towards the theory that it is a team. In general, what do you think? Be sure to share your opinion, knowledge, or guesses; I would love to read them. And I will probably go dig through the internet in search of the creator #BTC What do you think of the chart $BTC
Satoshi Nakamoto left traps in the Bitcoin code. The original Bitcoin code contained Easter eggs and strange limitations, for example: the number of blocks per day — exactly 144 (6 per hour) — an oddly precise setting. The first transaction (genesis block) cannot be spent intentionally — a kind of "phantom coin".
Several useful facts to keep in mind ○The first cryptocurrency is Bitcoin (BTC) Bitcoin was created in 2008 by a mysterious figure (or group of people) known by the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. At the time of the first message about Bitcoin, its price was $0.0008 per coin.
Today an important event in the crypto space is taking place: Ethereum Community Conference (EthCC) The largest European conference on Ethereum is held from June 30 to July 3, 2025, in Cannes, France. Today, July 3, is the fourth (final) day of the conference. Today at EthCC, several key discussions and workshops are expected, including topics on AI, privacy, and DeFi. ●Active crypto news today: ▪︎Oasis Protocol launched a mainnet called ROFL — this will enable private computations for AI and financial applications using TEE ▪︎ Ripple applied to the OCC for a national banking license for its stablecoin RLUSD ▪︎JPMorgan and S&P Global have partnered to explore the tokenization of carbon credits on the blockchain ●Why this matters: EthCC is a great opportunity to learn about new developments in Ethereum, hear from leaders in DeFi, privacy, and AI. Oasis ROFL expands privacy and computation capabilities in blockchain applications. Ripple and JPMorgan are reaching important regulatory and infrastructure milestones — this impacts the future of stablecoins and asset tokenization. #ETH #Ripple #news #CryptoNews
How long ago did you first learn about/encounter the world of crypto?
A brief history of the popularity of cryptocurrencies ✅ 2009 — launch of Bitcoin Satoshi Nakamoto mines the first block (genesis block). Almost no one takes BTC seriously — it was a project of enthusiasts. ✅ 2011–2013 — the first exchanges, growth to $1,000 The emergence of Mt.Gox, trading BTC for dollars. The first wave of interest, but a crash after the Mt.Gox hack in 2014.
When to buy cryptocurrency (not financial advice, but guidelines). 1. During corrections (declines of 15–30%) After a strong rise, crypto often corrects — this is an opportunity to enter at a lower price. Example: Bitcoin fell from $73K to $58K — it's reasonable to consider a partial purchase. 2. When the market is in a "fear" phase (according to the Fear & Greed Index)
