#DigitalAssetBill 💀 25% of tokens are dead: the crypto market is experiencing a wave of project extinction, — NewsBTC / CoinGecko.

📉 What happened:

▪️ In the first quarter of 2025, 1.8 million tokens went bankrupt — this is 25% of all issued since 2021
▪️ This is the largest cleansing in the history of the crypto market
▪️ The number of scams, abandoned projects, and "dead tokens" is hitting anti-records

🔥 Why this is important:

* The era of “made a token in 5 minutes” is coming to an end
* Investors have stopped feeding empty shells
* A new phase of the market is beginning: from hype — to fundamentals

"This is not a crash — this is a cleansing. Now only those who build survive, not just **make noise**"

📌 Conclusion:
2025 is the year of rebooting. The market is removing the weak.
⚠️ Ahead — quality instead of quantity, trust instead of memes, and new leaders who will rise from the ashes of old projects.

🟠 Trump is preparing the 2026 budget: at the center is the strategic BTC reserve, reports CoinCu.

🔥 What we know:

▪️ This Friday, Donald Trump will present the budget for the 2026 fiscal year
▪️ For the first time in U.S. history, it will include the establishment of a state bitcoin reserve
▪️ BTC is considered part of strategic assets, alongside gold and energy resources

📌 Why this is important:

* This is an official recognition of BTC as a national reserve of the U.S.
* A step that brings crypto closer to the status of a geopolitical tool
* It may influence the positions of other countries and the global dynamics of bitcoin demand

💬 Conclusion: Trump is betting on BTC not as speculation, but as a new digital asset at the core of the U.S. economy. This is a historic moment that could change the structure of global reserves.
