Yesterday, Cardano’s founder claimed Ethereum might not survive the next decade — ironic coming from someone whose own project is long dead and forgotten.
💥 FOLLOW ME FOR EVERY LATEST MARKET UPDATE 💥
Let’s be real: ETH hasn’t been in top shape lately. It's underperforming not just BTC and SOL. Why?
In my view — retail got wrecked. Everyone was betting on ETH going to 10k early in the bull. And as always — where the crowd piles in, you get the weakest growth and nastiest corrections.
Add to that the L2 bubble that popped. Remember the 2024 hype around Layer 2s? Everyone thought it was the 🚀 future of DeFi. And what’s the result? STRK — despite raising hundreds of millions — pulls in $200 in daily revenue.
A wave of inflows is shifting from ETH to SOL, with people publicly distancing themselves from Vitalik.. But I’ve seen this movie before — early in the bull, it was the opposite: everyone ignored SOL and bet big on ETH. Feels like history is rhyming.
Regardless, I remain bullish on ETH! 🚬 Most of my portfolio is in it. It already has an ETF, and staking will likely be legalized soon. The Pectra upgrade is coming in May. Big players like BlackRock are loading up on supply — clearly betting on the upside.
The hate? It means nothing. It’s just more fuel for the rocket to $10,000!
OM/USDT just dropped nearly 90 percent in less than two hours. A project once worth billions is now completely wrecked.
What happened here feels like another Luna moment. The price was pumped, manipulated behind the scenes, and then dumped hard. Most likely, there were shady OTC deals and insiders who knew exactly what was coming while retail traders were left holding the bag.
This is a painful reminder for every trader/ Investor out there.
Always use a stoploss. Don’t get greedy. Take profit along the way. Protecting capital is more important than chasing highs.
Imagine someone holding OM from the bottom, watching their portfolio grow for months, only to see everything vanish in one candle. That’s how unforgiving this market can be.
Hope everyone reading this is safe. Learn from it.
Be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful - Buffet
This famous quote from Warren Buffett encapsulates a core principle of contrarian investing: Meaning & Application to Markets: "Be fearful when others are greedy" → Caution in bullish markets. When euphoria drives stocks to overvalued levels (e.g., meme stocks, bubbles), smart investors reduce risk. Example: Selling during the 2021 SPAC/crypto frenzy or before the 2008 crash. "Be greedy when others are fearful" → Opportunity in crises. Panic creates undervalued assets. Buffett bought during the 2008 crisis (e.g., Goldman Sachs, Bank of America). Example: Buying quality stocks during COVID-19 market lows (March 2020). How to Use This Now: Current "Greedy" Signals (2024): AI stock mania (e.g., NVIDIA at high P/E ratios). Record-high S&P 500 (potential overextension). → Consider trimming overvalued positions. Current "Fearful" Opportunities: Beaten-down sectors (e.g., regional banks, commercial real estate). Stocks with strong fundamentals but short-term headwinds. → Research undervalued buys. Buffett’s Track Record: Bought Coca-Cola (KO) during the 1987 crash. Invested in Apple (AAPL) when skeptics doubted its growth. Held cash during the dot-com bubble, avoiding losses.
🔴 Trump's revelation : Many are wondering why Trump is acting like this: is he crazy or does he have an agenda? And Trump isn't hiding his agenda.
He's straight up calling for the Fed to cut rates, and yesterday he just took to Truth Social and reposted this video to himself.
🚬 Watch this. It's obvious. I have written to you about this repeatedly. Trump is no fool. He has a plan, even if it is very painful for us in the moment. There will be positives in the long run.
While you're panicking — BlackRock is buying.
🤬 Everyone is going crazy over Trump's predictions. The media headlines are full of information about recession, trade war and the end of the world economy.
I have a question: does a recession exactly happen when everyone is talking about it? Or does it happen unexpectedly like a black swan?
When the media screams about something, the opposite usually happens. We got a recession scare in '24, but BTC didn't stop that from breaking $100k.
👮 Trump's tariffs are a real negative and bad for the market. However, Trump played them in 2018 and we still bought the legendary bull 21.
🤴 China announced retaliatory tariffs of 34% on all US goods on April 10. Also, the EU is due to submit retaliatory tariffs soon.
And Trump imposes duties on April 9. First, China and other countries had time to think. Now the U.S. has time to think. They even gave us a day to spare.
For me, all this fuss is long-term positive, because the worse it is locally, the better it is globally for crypto. Just in the moment prices will fall even more. But this is not terrible for those who are on the spot and came in with free money. Should we wait for the benefit of a big growth? Let's wait.
It is the plight of the United States and the fear of an impending recession that may lead to an emergency Fed rate cut. And then there will be an infusion of new liquidity, and the markets will pop.
🐑 This is the scenario I see so far.
Let's give the market time. I'm sure the situation will calm down in a couple weeks. Trump is tough, but he sure has a plan.
MicroStrategy's average BTC buy price is around $67K. Once we fall below this level, their entire Bitcoin bet will be in the red, likely triggering liquidation talks.
Crypto and stocks could bounce back if Trump clarifies policies at events like the upcoming Crypto Summit fallout or if the Fed cuts rates further (Jerome Powell’s hinted at this). But if tariffs escalate or recession fears grow, the dumping you’re feeling might linger.
Whether he’s the cause or just the lightning rod, the markets are speaking louder than his Truth Social posts right now.
▶ BREAKING: China just legalized ownership of $BTC & crypto! 🇨🇳
China’s Crypto Policy in 2025: Separating Fact from Hype Recent claims that China has "legalized Bitcoin" are misleading. While a November 2024 Shanghai court ruling affirmed that individuals can own crypto as property, China’s strict bans on trading, mining, and payments remain unchanged. Social media hype in March 2025 misrepresented this as a new policy shift, but no official reforms have occurred.
China’s stance is still hostile toward decentralized crypto, prioritizing its digital yuan (CBDC). Although personal ownership is tolerated, citizens cannot legally buy or sell crypto, limiting market impact. While Hong Kong has embraced crypto ETFs, mainland China continues to block exchanges and suppress speculation.
Investors should ignore exaggerated headlines and focus on real developments—such as Hong Kong’s growing crypto hub—rather than unverified rumors. Until China’s government explicitly reverses its 2021 bans, the "legalization" narrative remains more hype than reality.
Will Declining Mortgage Rates in 2025 Boost the U.S. Stock Market?
1. The Impact of Lower Mortgage Rates on the Economy & Stocks ?
Yes, falling mortgage rates are generally bullish for the U.S. stock market, but the effect depends on why rates are dropping and which sectors benefit most.
Key Mechanisms: 📉 Lower borrowing costs → More homebuying, refinancing → boosts housing market (homebuilders, real estate stocks). 💵 Increased consumer spending (homeowners refinance, freeing up cash) → Benefits retail, banks, and consumer discretionary stocks. 🏦 Fed rate cuts (if driving the decline) → Lower yields → Bullish for growth stocks (tech, small-caps).
2. Sectors That Benefit Most - LOOK on PICTURE
3. Potential Risks & Caveats If rates fall due to recession fears, stocks may drop short-term before recovering. Regional banks could suffer if net interest margins compress too much. Inflation rebounds? If the Fed pauses cuts, mortgage rates may stagnate.

Breaking: "We have decided to roll back the ETH tariffs for now". - Trump.
The impact of Trump's statements on ETH tariffs (assuming this refers to taxes or regulatory restrictions on Ethereum) depends on broader market sentiment and context. Here’s how to interpret it:
1. "ETH Tariffs Coming This Week" – POTENTIAL BEARISH PRESSURE
Why? Tariffs or new taxes on ETH could:
Increase costs for traders/investors, reducing demand. Signal stricter crypto regulations, causing fear in the market. Lead to short-term sell-offs as traders price in uncertainty. Market Reaction: Likely dip in ETH price unless countered by strong bullish fundamentals (e.g., ETF approvals, institutional adoption).
2. "Rolling Back ETH Tariffs for Now" – POTENTIAL BULLISH RELIEF
Why? A reversal suggests:
Regulatory easing, reducing barriers to ETH trading/investment.
Positive sentiment as uncertainty fades (short-term rally possible).
Strengthened confidence in crypto-friendly policies. Market Reaction: Likely bounce, especially if paired with other bullish news (e.g., ETH ETF progress).
Key Considerations: Trump’s Influence: His pro-crypto or anti-crypto stance could sway market sentiment. If he’s seen as softening regulations, it’s bullish.
Broader Trends: ETH’s price depends more on adoption, tech upgrades (e.g., Ethereum 2.0), and macro trends (Fed rates, Bitcoin movements).
Short-Term vs. Long-Term: Tariff news may cause volatility, but ETH’s long-term value hinges on utility, DeFi, and institutional use.
Final Take: Tariffs Announced → Short-Term Bearish (sell-off risk). Tariffs Rolled Back → Short-Term Bullish (relief rally).
Long-Term ETH Outlook depends on fundamentals, not just politics.

The $1.25T US stock market drop on March 28, 2025, was likely driven by trade war fears from 👉 FOLLOW 👈 Trump's tariff policies, causing investor uncertainty. No new tariffs hit that day, but cumulative tensions and a grim GDP forecast (-2.8% for Q1) fueled the sell-off. Inflation and geopolitical worries also contributed, hitting tech giants like Google (-5.04%) and Amazon (-4.85%). Trade remains the key trigger.
