November 2020 has been a record-smashing month for crypto. From coin derivatives, to flat-out Bitcoin (BTC) price, the roller coaster keeps climbing up. With power behind Bitcoin like never before, the next few months look exciting. All-Time Higher and higher So the golden price of $20,000 for 1 BTC never happened, but $19,725 was not half bad. Cryptocurrencies are having another year to remember, and November was perhaps that most exciting month yet. According to Coingecko’s monthly report, November saw plenty of highs. The crypto market cap reached $554 billion.

The rapid growth of the decentralized finance space, the rise in demand, the improvement of its protocols, and the breadth of offered services and opportunities will provide retail users with the options they are sorely lacking in the existing financial system. And it will enable institutions to move real-world assets onto the blockchain, generating untold cost-savings and improved efficiencies.But it doesn’t have to be a violent revolution. DeFi doesn’t necessarily need to overthrow the incumbent system. I believe that DeFi will complement traditional finance, force it to do better, and,

Some of the best cryptocurrencies to prospect on are also some of the best values. What if we were to tell you three altcoins — currently priced in the low cents — are all potential sleepers? [embedded content] In the case of XRP (Ripple), XLM (Stellar), and ADA (Cardano), all three altcoins have unique growth potential on the crypto market.  Ripple, for example, has a rich history in e-payments dating back to the days of ripplepay.com, as an early competitor to PayPal.  In 2011, crypto-mogul Jed McCaleb (more on him

Is Bitcoin Too Hard To Understand? I’ve spent a huge part of the last three years explaining Bitcoin to general audiences and the most common form of resistance I encounter is: “Bitcoin is too complicated. The masses will never understand it.” It’s a fair argument. Bitcoin is complicated and if you want to reach a competent understanding of the big picture then, at a minimum, you’d better get ready to learn about peer-to-peer networks, cryptography and the history of money. It’s for this reason that I find it bizarre when

Hope you had an excellent weekend. It’s become a bit of a rarity lately while bitcoin was sitting flat, but now that crypto is in a bull market again, I suppose it makes sense to see some volatility over the weekend. Hope it’s not surprising to anyone. Stocks are moving up, precious metals are marching higher, and capital is flowing toward new age financial technology in a way that we’ve never really seen before. There’s a lot more liquidity these days, and it has been floating into all sorts of

Censorship has always been one of the biggest problems, and circumventing; it has been one of Bitcoin’s most significant alluring properties. The latest in such occurrences is that of Ben Taylor, a photographer who was recently banned for life from Western Union as a result of his activities in Africa.“No Explanations. Just Leave” In a recent YouTube video, the photographer, better known as Pleasant Green, explained that he established a photography business in Africa as a means of doing some charity work.

Humans have always been on a developmental journey. When we are born into thousands of years of inventions and improvements, it’s easy to take for granted what’s around us— as if they always existed. We seldom think about the changes it took to get to where we are.Take for example, the creation of language and how that opened up a new course in human history. How it led to communication, collaboration, communities and organizations. From there, people organized a set of doctrines and came up with story-telling, a precursor to
