Not FUDing, but BTC is showing signs of a bear market If confirmed, it could hit in the next few months. Definitely something to keep an eye on. Many people still believe that ETFs are the main driver of BTC price. That was true in 2024, but it’s no longer the case in 2025. This year, corporations have become the dominant force, they’ve bought 3 times more BTC than funds and ETFs, and 7 times more than governments. Governments, in reality, don’t have as much buying power as companies. They can support BTC adoption and make it easier for businesses to get BTC, but they’ll always remain secondary players. What’s unfortunate is that retailers are selling their BTC to corporations and ETFs.

Binance History: From Startup to Global Crypto Leader
Binance was founded in 2017 by Changpeng Zhao (commonly known as CZ) in China. Within just a few months, it quickly became one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges by trading volume. Binance stood out due to its user-friendly platform, wide range of cryptocurrencies, and low trading fees.
Despite regulatory challenges and relocating its headquarters multiple times, Binance continued to innovate—launching Binance Coin (BNB), its own blockchain (Binance Smart Chain), and expanding into DeFi, NFTs, and more.
Today, Binance serves millions of users globally, offering a comprehensive ecosystem that includes trading, staking, saving, and education. Its mission remains to increase the freedom of money worldwide through blockchain technology.
Here are Top 3 Crypto Tips every Binance user should know:
1. Always Use Stop-Loss Orders Protect your capital. Set stop-losses to automatically exit a trade if the price drops too much — especially in volatile markets like Futures or Leveraged tokens.
2. Don’t Trade with Emotions Fear and greed are the enemies of smart trading. Stick to your strategy, avoid revenge trading, and never invest more than you can afford to lose.
3. Secure Your Binance Account
Enable 2FA (Google Authenticator)
Use a strong, unique password
Avoid phishing links and only use official Binance domains

Mastercard’s Stablecoin Vision: Bridging Traditional Finance & Web3
Mastercard is making significant moves in the Web3 space by integrating stablecoins like USDC into real-world payment systems. Through strategic partnerships, including recent collaborations with platforms like MoonPay and Stables, Mastercard is enabling users to spend stablecoins directly via payment cards that convert digital assets to local fiat in real-time.
While its co-branded crypto card program with Binance ended in 2023 due to regulatory pressures, Mastercard continues to lead with new innovations.
