How did the blackout in Europe affect the Bitcoin network?
The blackout in European countries, Spain, Portugal, and France led to Bitcoin miners operating there having to cease their activities due to the lack of connectivity to the power grid and the internet.
According to data from the Czech mining pool Braiins, the computational power (hashrate) of the Bitcoin network recorded a slight decrease compared to April 27, from 822 EH/s (exahashes per second) to 807 EH/s. However, this decline does not seem to be largely linked to the massive blackout in Europe.
That metric, which measures the total processing power dedicated to mining on the network, did not show a significant reduction after the blackout, despite the fact that Bitcoin's hashrate has been experiencing a gradual decline since April 17.

The blackout in Spain is a call to action with Bitcoin
The power outage in the Iberian Peninsula reminds us of the fragility of digital systems.
This is the second national blackout we have experienced. The first was in Venezuela in 2019.
In these days in Spain, parts of Portugal, and France, Bitcoin was not a solution in this context either. Although there are ways to send BTC without the Internet, these are used in very few places in the world. For the rest of us, we are so accustomed to connectivity that we don’t even think about the need to have alternatives for the unexpected. Hence, cash, as it is often said, has been King.

#AirdropStepByStep An airdrop (English: air delivery), in the context of cryptocurrencies, is a procedure for distributing tokens granted to holders of a pre-existing cryptocurrency, such as Bitcoin or Ethereum, or to users of a specific online cryptocurrency exchange. Sometimes this is done in exchange for performing certain actions such as sharing on social media, inviting friends, installing an application, registering on a website, or filling out questionnaires.
All of this serves as an online marketing strategy to gain visibility and encourage the use of specific platforms, among other purposes. In the United States, this practice has raised questions about tax liabilities and whether they represent income or capital gains. An example of this is the one carried out by the company Omise, which gifted five percent of its cryptocurrency OmiseGO to holders of Ethereum in September 2017.

China advances to destroy Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies using quantum computers
🚨 A team of Chinese researchers has managed to break a cryptographic lock that until now remained intact. And the most concerning part is that they did it with an average quantum computer, without using any new special equipment.
📣 Although they are still far from being able to break the cryptography that makes your communications, financial transactions, or email accounts secure, the possibility of quantum computers deciphering all current security systems, including those protecting Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, is a significant step towards the dreaded Q-day, the moment when quantum computers will be able to instantly decrypt all current security systems.

#TrumpTaxCuts President Donald Trump reiterated on Sunday night an extraordinary ambition that he and members of his administration have expressed from time to time during his recent second term: one day, Americans will not have to pay income taxes, all thanks to Trump's tariffs.
"We are going to make a lot of money and we are going to reduce taxes for the people of this country," Trump said before boarding Air Force One for his return from Pope Francis's funeral in Rome. "It will take a little time before that happens, but we are going to reduce taxes and we may do a total tax cut, because I believe the tariffs will be enough to eliminate all income taxes."

#TariffsPause Ethereum is an active network, full of life and movement. It always has been. Perhaps the one with the most advancements and development. This is evidenced by its more than 5,000 active developers, including those who work on the main network, creating applications, and those who work at the level of the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM Stack).
In the past, such a large amount of human work has translated into advancements like the Ethereum Merge, which caused a transition from the consensus mechanism to proof of stake (PoS), increasing its energy efficiency (though undermining the systemic security of the network, according to some); or in the blobs, a function that allows temporary data packets to be introduced into the Ethereum blocks.
Blobs are a promising mechanism to improve the economy of Ethereum.

#EthereumFuture The low demand for data processing on the Ethereum network makes ETH inflationary, as the built-in burn mechanism is not sufficient to balance the new coins issued to cover staking rewards.
Despite being the clear leader in Total Value Locked (TVL), traders generally are not interested in this metric, as it has not translated into greater demand for the Ethereum network or increased scarcity of ETH.
As a result, even if the fundamentals of Ethereum improve, optimism among ETH holders is decreasing, while competitors—especially Solana and Ripple investors—are hopeful for the approval of their spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the U.S. Currently, spot ETFs in the U.S. are only available for Bitcoin and Ether, so additional offerings would likely reduce potential institutional demand for altcoins.

#BTCvsMarkets The price of Bitcoin
reached a new high at USD 94,700 on April 23, its highest value since March 2.
Several analysts claim that the next psychological resistance is still at USD 95,000, and that the price could fall to test support levels below.
"The USD 94K- USD 95K zone is clearly the resistance to beat," said Swissblock in a post on April 24 on X.
The onchain data provider stated that the next logical move for Bitcoin would be a pullback towards the USD 90,000 zone to gain momentum for a higher move.

The United States will have a "strategic reserve" of cryptocurrencies.
But beyond the flashy announcements, there are not many details. Thus, in practice, it is unclear how it will work or how it would benefit Americans, beyond the fact that, with this decree, Trump seeks to know the exact volume of cryptocurrencies in federal hands to deposit them in this reserve, which will be controlled by the Department of the Treasury.
This new reserve mainly considers bitcoin, the strongest digital currency currently, with a value close to US$ 83.000 per unit, although the quotation can vary quite a bit. According to the White House's "czar" for artificial intelligence and cryptocurrencies, David Sacks, it will be capitalized with bitcoins owned by the federal government that were seized in operations against criminal activities. "This means it will not cost taxpayers a dime," he stated. In addition to bitcoin, this reserve is expected to include more cryptocurrencies, such as Ethereum, XRP, SOL, and ADA.
