Ignore what the suits on Wall Street would have you believe. They want to continue to have you stuck in their rigged game. While you sit there clipping coupons for pathetic payouts, they’re the ones taking home the big bucks. Here’s the thing: DeFi is the new frontier, a digital...
Our surrogate Sarah, a recent college graduate drowning in the burden of student loan debt, represents the pain and struggle of our entire generation. Every time she scrimps and saves, she invests in a future where she’s not one emergency away from financial ruin. In this uncertain landscape, crypto, with...
Okay, let's be real. Noticing Bitcoin inching towards $85,000 and catching the buzz of $100K once more? It's exciting. That temporary tariff relief combined with the stock market gains should signal an optimistic outlook. Even the institutions that are betting big are signalling a very bullish future! We're talking potential...
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...

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...
