The Chairman of the Fed issues a message. In short, he defends the institutional independence of the Federal Reserve as a fundamental pillar for setting interest rates based on objective economic data, rather than under the influence of political preferences. Having served under four different administrations (Republican and Democratic), he reaffirms his commitment to fulfilling his mission of price stability and maximum employment without fear or favor, even in the face of threats (a shot at Trump).
He concludes by emphasizing that public service sometimes requires standing up to intimidation, and that he will continue to act with integrity in service to the American people.
It's clear that the standoff with Trump is far from over for him. Trump doesn't have the direct power to fire him, and both of them know it 😆.#USNonFarmPayrollReport #FOMCWatch $BTC $ETH

People mock this man/woman, yet what they achieved with ZCash is one of the greatest technological accomplishments.
Zcash was the first network in the world to deploy zero-knowledge proofs (zk-SNARKs), and let's be clear, this was back in 2016.
This enables: to prove a transaction is valid without revealing: the sender, the recipient, or the amount.
It's this technology that Ethereum's Layer 2 solutions now use, ten years later, to add speed to Ethereum and reduce fees. I'm referring to projects like ZK Sync, Starknet, Linea, etc. I know some, like Starknet, use Stark-type ZKs, but I don't want to dive too deep into technical details.
I just want to emphasize how brilliant the Zcash team truly is. I'll be closely following their new project. I don't know if they'll continue developing Zcash.#USNonFarmPayrollReport #WriteToEarnUpgrade $BTC $ETH
Well, the Cameroonian players will finally be going back home tonight! Guys, you can't go to a competition without your best goalkeeper. You were even happy when he lost at his club and when he was kicked out of MU just to please the great Etoo—don't you see the injustice and malice don't get you far?
Well, I didn't want to talk more about it, but since you insist. I told you that #Core was garbage, didn't I? You insulted me, right?
I don't even want to go into detail. Here's what a quick analysis under 5 minutes can reveal.
Core claims they have over 2,657 BTC locked, which should result in a TVL of at least $240M. However, when checking onchain, we see the actual #TVL is just $40M.
But $40M isn't bad, you might say, and you're right. Only when digging deeper do we see that this TVL mainly comes from two protocols: one is exclusively based on Core's #blockchain and has only $28 TVL, and the other operates on three chains, but we'll focus only on the one running on the Core network.
This is #CoreLend, a lending and borrowing protocol. When reviewing its data, we see that only 228M Core are locked, representing $28M, and 0.008 BTC, which is approximately $800.
In other words, they've locked their own Core tokens to inflate the TVL, and the actual value locked on the network doesn't even exceed $5,000 in real terms.
I often make strong statements, I admit it, but it's because I see so many scams that it frustrates me, and when I try to warn the community, they turn against me😅 and no one stands up for me.#USNonFarmPayrollReport #FOMCWatch $BTC $ETH
$Monero regaining ZCash's customers😅. Normally, the fees on #ZCash I think will go through. In fact, Monero should have benefited from this rise, but Qubic ruined everything with its Monero mining 😆#CPIWatch #WriteToEarnUpgrade
Some people think it's the coaches who are holding back the crypto market, or that we hold the key to the bull run: triggering it or stopping it.
Let's be serious. Coaches, experienced investors, or beginners, everyone is subject to the market and its changes.
If this cycle is different from all previous ones, it's neither the fault of a project, nor a coach, nor an analysis. It's a large-scale manipulation that has completely overturned the rules of the game.
Our role isn't to control the market, but to help investors avoid emotional decisions that could lead to significant losses.
Yes, some of us are down on certain projects. But know that there are people who have lost everything or have already exited the market.
So it's really naive to believe that all of this is the fault of some ordinary individual. Here, it's neither PetronPay nor Crown1.
It's a market subject to international rules and interests, and everyone is affected… unless you're part of the Trump family or work at BlackRock.
🟩🟨 MONDE-" I told Macron, Emmanuel, I'm giving you until January 14th to raise the prices of pills in France. The US can't pay 14 times more than you. He replied, no no no, I can't do that. I said, yes, you will do it as I say, I'm not asking for your opinion. He said, it's difficult. I said, if by the 14th you haven't raised the prices, I will destroy the rest of your economy. I will raise tariffs on all your products, wine, perfumes, flowers, and everything you sell, to 100%. Emmanuel, you've been warned".
🟥🟨 ——- URGENT IRAN DECLARES END OF RETREAT: WE ARE READY FOR THE INEVITABLE. THE CHILLING MESSAGE THAT IS TERRIFYING.
The Islamic Republic of Iran is going through one of its most perilous tests at the beginning of 2026. The government finds itself caught between public anger and the war drums Donald Trump is sounding from Washington.
Military Deterrence: "The time of retreat is over"
Iranian President Massoud Pizzeria issued a chilling warning to the international community: Maximum readiness: He stated that the Iranian armed forces are today more prepared than ever to defend the territory. Lightning-fast retaliation: Any external aggression will be met with a "harsher and firmer" response, signaling that Tehran possesses the means to massively destabilize American interests in the region.
Facing Trump's threats: Sovereignty is non-negotiable
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs reacted violently to Donald Trump's remarks, who threatens intervention in case of crackdown on protests: Rejection of interference: Tehran labels Trump's threats as "incitement to violence" driven by the Israeli agenda. Widespread chaos: Iran warns that an American miscalculation would plunge the region into total chaos, with Washington being solely responsible.
Rial collapse: Pizzeria admits his mistakes
In an unusual display of frankness, the Iranian president confronted the reality of the economic crisis shaking the country since December 28th: Freefall of the currency: The Rial has reached historic lows, triggering protests in several major cities. Admission of responsibility: Pizzeria admitted that public discontent is "justified." He urged officials to stop blaming foreigners and acknowledge that internal mismanagement is the main driver of the crisis.
Trump in trouble. Friday, there is a 77% chance that the Supreme Court will rule that President Trump's tariffs are illegal.
Well, as a consequence, the tariffs should stop, and companies that have suffered under the tariffs could even request refunds.
On the market side, this would be excellent news because uncertainty would finally be lifted. I don't know why the media underestimates this information.#BTCVSGOLD #FOMCWatch $BTC $ETH

Ondo is about to unlock 1.9 billion tokens this month, specifically on the 18th, worth approximately 860 million dollars.
Today's altcoins are designed to make founders and their friends rich. Every fund manager knows they should not get involved in these projects before 2028. In the meantime, sell every small rise on these trash coins.
It's not that the projects aren't good, but they're all built to extract as much as possible from us until 2028. By then, either the winners will emerge with healthier tokenomics—meaning zero dilution—or they will abandon the project and launch a new one, since there will be no more team tokens left to sell.#USJobsData #FOMCWatch $BTC $ETH

This is called the Genesis Block, did you know? 🔎 ➡️ 17 years ago, a simple file of a few kilobytes changed the course of history. On January 3, 2009, the Bitcoin Genesis Block was mined by a certain Satoshi Nakamoto. This block contained a hidden message: “The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks” A critical wink at the traditional banking system. Since that day, Bitcoin has operated without interruption. No banks, no states, no CEOs: just code, cryptography, and a silent revolution.
