Wall Street analyst Tom Lee, who predicted the S&P 500's rise by exactly 24% in 2023, #Bitcoin's 2024 rise to $100k by the end of 2024—both claims which came to fruition—is now predicting Bitcoin's climb to $250k in 2025! This

Someone on Telegram just made this exquisitely incorrect statement... "Crypto is not a valuable currency; this is because if you take #Bitcoin for example, in one Bitcoin there are 100,000,000 sats, so it's safe to say one Bitcoin = $99,000, so Bitcoin is not as

I was at the grocery store this morning when I noticed this. It's one of those Coinstar kiosks that converts loose change into cash. Well, this one is upgraded, and it allows you to convert your change into sats, and you can directly purchase Bitcoin with cash as
