#Write2Earn The Trump administration is planning to permanently relocate one million residents of the Palestinian Gaza Strip to Libya, the African country. On Saturday (May 17), the US media NBC News reported this information, citing two people directly involved in the plan and a former US official. However, after the publication of this report, a spokesperson for the US State Department claimed that it was untrue. The report said that the Trump administration is seriously considering this relocation plan. The US has held talks with important figures in Libya to implement the plan. And in exchange for the resettlement of Palestinians in Libya, the Trump administration will return billions of dollars seized in the United States more than a decade ago. However, no final agreement has been reached with Libya yet. In addition, Israel has been informed about these discussions.

#BitcoinWithTariffs Trump’s $BTC Surprise: Using Tariff Money to Buy Crypto? HoldOnTight! Big news just hit! The Trump team has shared a wild idea that could change both crypto and America’s money plans. Watcher.Guru tweeted: "JUST IN: Trump administration says US may buy Bitcoin using tariff revenue." And boom—this news lit up the internet! So, what’s the plan? Trump’s people are thinking about using tariff money (that’s the money the U.S. collects from taxes on goods it imports) to buy Bitcoin. Yes, you heard that right—the U.S. government might start buying Bitcoin!
#USElectronicsTariffs The global market just took a serious hit —and crypto isn’t immune. Trump’s latest post just confirmed what many of us feared: Tariffs are NOT going anywhere. In fact, they’re intensifying. With no tariff exception announced and a direct focus on semiconductors and the entire electronics supply chain, this sends a chilling message to the tech and finance sectors. As someone knee-deep in these markets daily, I immediately felt the ripple—BTC’s structure just got a lot more bearish. Why? Because this kind of policy pressure amplifies uncertainty, especially when aimed at global trade dynamics. China, being at the center of both global manufacturing and tension, only makes this more volatile. The market hates uncertainty. And with tariffs being enforced more aggressively, capital begins to shift cautiously, risk assets like crypto start showing stress, and Bitcoin’s already fragile structure looks even weaker. We can no longer pretend crypto is isolated from the world stage. We are now undeniably tethered to global policy shifts. What happens in trade, regulations, and macroeconomics immediately affects us. One ripple in a corner like tariffs on semiconductors can turn into tidal waves across crypto markets. The bottom line: crypto is global now. And every decision, every policy, every tweet—it matters. Stay sharp, stay aware. This is not the time to sleep on headlines. DYOR Follow me

#StaySAFU “With Great Difficulty, I Make Profits… Only to Lose It All Again—And More of My Own Capital.” If you’ve ever felt this way—like every small win is quickly followed by a bigger loss—you’re not alone. In fact, this cycle is one of the most common and heartbreaking traps in trading. The Boom-Bust Cycle You work hard. You stay patient. You finally catch a good move. The trade plays out. You’re up. But instead of stepping back and managing your win, you double down, overtrade, or chase something new.
#TradingPsychology Trading psychology refers to the mental and emotional aspects that influence trading decisions. Successful traders cultivate discipline, patience, and emotional control. Fear and greed are two dominant emotions that often lead to impulsive decisions, losses, and missed opportunities. Developing a strong mindset involves managing stress, accepting losses, sticking to a plan, and maintaining realistic expectations. Overconfidence, revenge trading, and hesitation can also undermine performance. Journaling trades, continuous learning, and self-awareness are key to improvement. Ultimately, mastering trading psychology is just as crucial as technical or fundamental analysis in achieving long-term success in the markets. Mind over money wins the game.
