🚨MUSK VS TRUMP!!

Everything in this contest is a risky game, both for Musk and for Trump 👁️

Let’s break this down. What do you think is really going on?

how to become a P2P, does anyone know?

> P2P already has great platforms that have all that figured out and are working well. Try Bisq and the platform from the other comment.
Okay 🧡

I’ve been thinking about becoming a Bitcoin P2P — buying and selling directly with people, without relying on exchanges.

But I want to understand how it really works in practice:

How do you build trust and reputation?

Where do you find clients?

What tools or platforms do you use (if any)?

What risks should I be aware of?

If you’re a P2P or have tried it, I’d love to hear how you got started and what you’ve learned.

Appreciate any tips from the field! ⚡

French authorities have indicted 25 suspects — including 6 minors — in connection with a wave of crypto-related kidnapping attempts. One target: the daughter of Paymium's CEO.

The attackers? Mostly young people lured by money and used as foot soldiers by still-unidentified organizers.

This wave of organized crime is shaking confidence in France’s ambitions to become a European crypto hub. Despite increased security efforts, the masterminds remain at large — and the threat persists.

💡 AI data centers to consume more energy than Bitcoin mining by end of 2025?

One thing’s for sure: Bitcoin makes the entire fiat system uncomfortable.

New research by Alex de Vries-Gao projects that AI data centers could use up to 23 GW of electricity by late 2025 — surpassing the 20 GW currently used by Bitcoin mining. 🧠⚡

This estimate is based on the explosive growth of chip production (especially at TSMC), which has doubled capacity between 2023 and 2024. Yet, most big tech companies aren’t transparent about their AI energy usage.

Are we ready for AI’s environmental impact?

Should there be mandatory energy reporting for AI infrastructure?

And remember:
AI surpassing Bitcoin in energy consumption doesn’t harm Bitcoin directly.
On the contrary — it might actually help its image, sparking a more honest conversation about what qualifies as “legitimate” energy use in our digital world. ⚡💻🧠

🧠 Quantum Computing vs. Bitcoin: Are We Nearing Q-Day?

Totally agree — it's a real risk, but obviously the media loves to blow it out of proportion. Sensationalism sells.

🌐 Quantum Computing vs. Bitcoin: Are We Nearing Q-Day?

📰 Google warns quantum computers could crack RSA 20x faster than expected

Google’s recent research indicates that quantum computers might crack RSA encryption 20 times faster than previously believed.
This revelation has intensified concerns about Bitcoin’s security — especially since it relies on elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), which could be vulnerable to quantum attacks like Shor’s algorithm.

While current quantum hardware isn't yet capable of breaking Bitcoin’s encryption, advancements are accelerating.
Some experts suggest that within 5–7 years, quantum computers could pose a real threat to cryptocurrency security.

💬 So, what do you think?

🔸 Is the crypto community prepared for the quantum era?
🔸 Will post-quantum cryptography solutions be implemented in time?
🔸 How should investors and developers respond to these emerging threats?

📢 Share your thoughts and insights below! Let’s discuss the future of Bitcoin in the age of quantum computing. 🧵👇

After breaking the psychological barrier of $100,000 last year — fueled by hopes of more favorable regulation under Trump’s return — Bitcoin has officially entered a new era. 🚀

Institutional adoption is ramping up. ETFs are flowing. Public companies are stacking. And miners? Thriving.

But here’s the real question:
Where do you see the Bitcoin price closing in 2025?

Will we hit $180K? Maybe $250K?
Or is a big correction around the corner?

Drop your wildest — or most reasoned — end-of-year prediction below. 🧠👇
Let’s see who gets closest when December comes around.





📈 Bitcoin hit $100K in 2024… but what’s next?

GameStop, the iconic video game retailer turned meme stock, has made a bold move into the cryptocurrency world by purchasing 4,710 Bitcoins, valued at approximately $513 million. This strategic acquisition was disclosed in their recent SEC filing and marks the company's first significant foray into digital assets .

The funds for this purchase were raised through a $1.5 billion convertible bond offering completed in April. GameStop's board had previously updated its investment policy in December 2023, allowing for investments in digital assets like Bitcoin .

This move aligns GameStop with other companies like MicroStrategy and Tesla, which have incorporated Bitcoin into their treasury strategies. However, it's worth noting that GameStop's stock experienced a 10% drop following the announcement, indicating investor uncertainty about this new direction .

Is this a visionary step towards financial innovation or a desperate attempt to revitalize a struggling brand? Share your thoughts below.
