The financial system isn't fair. We all know it. It is structured to reward the privileged, while the rest of us are left scrambling to claim crumbs. Imagine if you had a chance to even the odds. What if crypto was less about getting rich quick, and more about redistributing...
Is Bitcoin really for everyone? We read the same headlines, the same millionaires created overnight, the huge demonstrations of institutional adoption. To be perfectly frank, go on and get real with yourselves. For most of us, especially Gen Z and millennials shackled with debt and inflationary wages, being able to...
Let's be blunt. Think of the entire crypto market as a toddler throwing a tantrum, and Donald Trump as the parent with the television remote. One minute, he's promising to be crypto-friendly, the next he's hinting at tariffs, and the whole damn thing swings wildly. We saw it this week....
Let’s face it, for many people outside the traditional financial system, it’s a rigged game. We're saddled with student loan debt, stagnant wages, and a housing market that's laughably out of reach. Instead, they ask that we pull ourselves up by our bootstraps. At the same time, they succeed in...

Mahomes launching "The Museum of Mahomes"? It's got my attention, but as someone who's seen trends come and go, I'm asking: is this a touchdown or an interception?NFT Craze: The New Beanie Babies?Let’s face it, the NFT marketplace hardly resembles old-school technology innovation and more closely resembles the dot-com bubble...
Patrick Mahomes. The name itself evokes an entire mythology of no-look passes, Super Bowl championships and a seemingly infinite reservoir of charm. He's a cultural icon. Now, he's stepping into the world of NFTs with "The Museum of Mahomes," and while the ambition is clear, I can't help but wonder...
