Gold was king. For millennia, it has served as the ultimate safe haven, the physical embodiment of value and solidity. Let’s face it — betting on gold in 2025 is the equivalent of picking a horse-and-buggy in the auto race. It’s really not practical in the era of Tesla! I’m...
Look, I get it. You saw Bitcoin surge. You heard the stories of overnight millionaires. For a brief moment, it felt like finance’s future would indeed be digital and decentralized. Even skeptics imagined that it would make gold itself superfluous, consigning it to the dustbin of history. And yes, back...
Traditionally, gold and Bitcoin have both been seen as safe havens. Today they are headed in radically different directions. This divergence is causing analysts to re-evaluate their role in today’s broad financial landscape. Gold, which has been a store of value for thousands of years since at least ancient Egypt...
Historically, gold has been the ultimate safe haven asset, a reliable store of value during periods of economic dislocation. Then along came Bitcoin, the great digital disruptor, taking on gold’s crown. Token ATH! is here to help break it down and show you how these two assets will act very...

While others chased fleeting trends and unsustainable valuations, OpenSea quietly focused on building a platform, not just a marketplace...
Now that the digital dust has settled on DraftKings’ $10 million settlement… That’s particularly the case with their Reignmakers NFT platform, which is at the center of this decision. The class-action lawsuit alleged DraftKings was offering unregistered securities. To the surprise of many, a federal judge expressly ruled that these...
Imagine this: a bright-eyed college student, let's call him Alex, scrolling through Twitter, sees the hype around DraftKings' Reignmakers NFTs. He's a sports fan, tech-savvy, and figures, "Why not? It's a fun way to maybe make some extra cash." He loads up a few hundred bucks into these dorky looking...
The crypto market has no shortage of excitement. At the moment, we have all our eyes on how the possible interest rate cuts would affect it. Will it be seen that way on the 19th, and will that lead to a new bull run like we saw during the pandemic?...
Alright, let's cut to the chase. The rumors spread and the heat is on. Despite all outward appearances, though those may be deceiving, the Fed is preparing to cut interest rates any day now. Trump has not just been highly publicized, he has been opinionated. I’m deeply cynical about following...

It’s closer to giving Wall Street keys to a shiny but ill-tempered Ferrari.Stability or Speculation?Let's be real. The stated reasoning for this...
