Netflix breaks ground on 9,482 BTC production hub at Fort Monmouth in New Jersey

BlokchainB

This is wild who would've thought Fort Monmouth would turn into a film hub Netflix playing the long game.

wolfsbane

That’s wild — 9,482 BTC for a production hub sounds like something straight out of a cyberpunk novel. Hollywood better watch its back. Netflix planting roots in Jersey like this might just kick off an East Coast content renaissance. Imagine future hits stamped “Made in Monmouth” — and all backed by a BTC-sized flex.

1 in 10 people in India were still practicing open defecation in 2022

India has made huge progress, but with such a large population, even small percentages mean millions still lack proper sanitation there’s still work to do.

Something changed. It wasn’t just the halving, or the ETF hype, or the latest regulatory slap fight it’s deeper than that.

>_**Bitcoin is becoming the default exit from a failing system and it's happening fast. Fiat is bleeding credibility high inflation, monetary debasement, and record debt ceilings are now the norm not the exception. Central banks are increasingly political tools, and trust in institutions is at an all time low.**_

**Meanwhile,Bitcoin just keeps doing its thing:**
✅ _100% uptime_
✅ _Fixed supply_
✅ _Globally accessible_
✅ _Permissionless_
✅ _Immune to political manipulation_

> _**And here's the kicker the cultural momentum is shifting too. Wall Street is no longer mocking Bitcoin they're buying it. Politicians aren’t banning it they’re trying to regulate it into legitimacy. Gen Z doesn't trust banks they stack sats even some central banks are rumored to be watching the game closely.**_

**```We’re witnessing the monetization of an asset in real time a once in a civilization financial paradigm shift.```**

🚨 Bitcoin Is No Longer Just an Option It’s Becoming the Default Exit

When I was about 5, I grew up in a village in Jamaica, enveloped by a darkness that clung to my family like a curse. 

🥷🏿 Born into a ruthless clan, a pack of wolves where only the strongest survived, I faced a brutal world.

▫️I never went to school and had barely a rag for clothing. The villagers branded me cursed, spitting on me and striking me without cause. I grew up wild, stripped of humanity.

▪️Our home was a small board shack with a dirt floor, where rats chewed at my toes and my grandma’s in the night as we slept.

〰️ Hunger was my constant shadow. At just 5, I fished and hunted in the bushes to feed my sister. 

🍞 Poverty carved hardship deep into my soul, leaving me feeling less than human.

At 8, my grandma adopted me, and for the first time, I went to school and wore proper clothes. She began to humanize me, pulling me from the wild-from the grips of poverty. 

🟧 In 2024, that I discovered Bitcoin. The government’s oppressive fiat system—riddled with greed and corruption—had fueled the poverty and trauma that scarred my childhood.

〰️▪️〰️  Bitcoin became my shield, a decentralized path to freedom that restored my humanity and offered hope against the pain inflicted by those in power.

Now, I use Bitcoin poetry to heal and redeem others like me, transforming scars into songs of liberation for decentralization.

Music

_**Last week surprise performance at SZA’s Grand National Tour in LA should’ve been one for the books. Instead, it left fans with one question:**_

## “Is Justin Bieber okay?”

_```Justin stepped on stage to duet with SZA and what unfolded was unsettling.```_

🌀 _Eyewitnesses backstage described him as “disconnected,” “like a ghost,” and “mumbling to himself.”_

🍷 _Reports say he’d been drinking and smoking before the performance, and it showed his mic often wasn’t even at his mouth._

💔 _SZA seemed to recognize something was off and lovingly lifted his chin mid performance. That single act both tender and tragic has gone viral._

👀 Fans are calling it a cry for help.

🧠 _Others are speculating about mental health struggles, relapse, or the long term effects of Ramsay Hunt syndrome (which he’s publicly battled)._

💍 _All this is happening while rumors swirl about marriage issues with Hailey Bieber though she was there, supporting from the crowd._

>_**``His reps say there’s no drug abuse going on. But let’s be honest, something’s up. And it’s not just one off night this fits a pattern we’ve seen before.``**_

**Questions:**

```✓```Is Justin Bieber in crisis again?
```✓```Why do so many child stars seem to spiral as adults?
```✓```Should artists be protected from performing when they’re clearly not well?
```✓```Does the industry (or the public) exploit celebrity breakdowns for views?

rvn to btc? hypercompounding stacking sats?

rdytostack

Simple. Mine RVN → swap to BTC → repeat.

Hypercompounding stacking sats while fiat dies and the clown world burns. Energy into sound money. No alt holds, no gambling — just using the broken system to exit the broken system. 🧱⚡️

_**```Big moves happening in the Bitcoin space right now. BTC is currently trading around $104,000, down a bit from its peak near $112,000 just last month but don’t let the dips fool you. Traders and analysts are buzzing with optimism, and here’s why you need to pay attention```**_


## What’s Driving the Surge?

1. **```Options Market is Speaking Loud and Clear```**:

>**Over 50% of Deribit’s call options are betting on Bitcoin smashing through $125,000 by June 27. This isn’t just casual optimism these are big bets from serious players expecting massive upside in just a few weeks.**


2. **```Institutional Money Flooding In```**:

>**Analysts highlight growing institutional interest as a major catalyst. Hedge funds, family offices, and major investment firms are doubling down on BTC, driving demand and boosting confidence across markets.**


3. **```Political Winds at BTC’s Back```**:

>**Political support is also ramping up globally. Regulatory clarity and positive policy shifts are creating a more welcoming environment for cryptocurrencies, giving Bitcoin an added tailwind.**


 **```What Does This Mean for you Bitcoiners ```**?

```✓```_Volatility is Here Use It Wisely: BTC’s recent price swings mean traders can capitalize on short term moves but the bigger picture looks bullish._

```✓```_Get Ready for Possible Breakout: If BTC crosses $125K, it could open the floodgates for even higher gains and trigger a wave of FOMO (fear of missing out) across retail and institutional investors._

```✓```_Stay Informed, Stay Nimble: Keep your eyes on market sentiment and option flows these are powerful signals for what’s coming next._


 **Your Move, Crypto Community**

Bitcoin Eyes $125K: Deribit Bets, Institutional Demand, and Political Tailwinds

crypto

>⚡️ **Bitcoin is the tip of the spear, but the rest of the crypto ecosystem is exploding with developments that are impossible to ignore even if you’re a hard-nosed maxi. This post is a deep dive into what’s happening beyond BTC and why it matters for us all. Let’s explore**👇



🔗 1. **ETH Is Pumping While BTC Stalls. Why**?

•_Ethereum jumped 3.4% while Bitcoin dropped recently._

•_Cause? Surge in DeFi activity, institutional ETH staking, and treasury moves like SharpLink putting reserves in ETH._


Q: Are institutions signaling confidence in Ethereum’s long-term utility or is this just another narrative play?



🌐 2. **Blockchain = The New Financial Backbone**?

**```Joseph Lubin (Ethereum cofounder) says:```**

•“_Global finance is broken. Blockchain offers a new trust layer.”_

•_From asset tokenization to settlement rails, big finance is going Web3 quietly._

Q: Can decentralized ledgers really replace legacy trust systems? Or are we just handing the same power to new gatekeepers?



🏛️ 3. **Politics & Crypto: Trump’s $2.5B Bet**

•_Trump Media plans a massive $2.5B crypto investment._

•_Tied to his 2024 campaign and a pro-crypto agenda_

•_Promises full deregulation, backed by MAGA aligned capital_

•_But: deep questions about regulatory capture & political abuse_


Q: Is this the death of “neutral money” if statesmen start issuing tokens? Or just another grift?


📊 4. **The Altcoin Economic Engine**

## Top 5 coins by cap: BTC, ETH, USDT, XRP, BNB

>Altcoins are no longer just speculative plays they’re financial tools, L2 solutions, and stablecoin engines


Q: Are altcoins legitimate monetary experiments or ticking bombs?


🔮 5. **Where’s the Crypto Economy Headed?**

## Trends worth watching:

```✓```DeFi replacing banks in emerging markets.

```✓```Stablecoins as inflation hedges (especially in LatAm/Africa).

```✓```Layer 2 scaling (ZK-rollups, optimistic rollups) changing the speed of crypto integration.


🧠 **Final Thought:**

_Bitcoin is our foundation but crypto is now a multiverse.
If we’re serious about sound money and financial freedom, we need to understand the whole chessboard._

HELP ME REPLACE MY  STOLEN " Samsung Galaxy S24+ " THAT I USE FOR WORK

Heartbroken after my Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, my work lifeline, was stolen today. 

Saved 2 years for that $2,000 phone, and now I’m stuck with no way to replace it. 

If you’d like to help me get back on my feet for work, any zaps  would mean the world.

Lost my Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra today at the supermarket. Set it down to snap a pic for X, and within seconds, it was gone. Suspect a homeless guy near the door took it. 

Confronted him, but he denied it. Later saw him again, asked for my phone, and he pulled a knife, threatening to stab me. 

Had to walk away—past trauma with police in Jamaica (PTSD from their abuse) means I can’t call them. 

That $2,000 phone was my work tool, and I saved 2 years to buy it for my birthday last year. Gone in a flash. Can’t track it due to VPN and low battery. 

Feeling crushed, but I know I did the right thing avoiding violence. Hope that guy finds some joy in it. Now I’m stuck, as all my work platforms ran on that phone. 

No way I can afford another one. Just gotta keep moving forward despite the trauma.

At the same time, Michael Saylor dropped a bombshell hint: the Bank of England may be “on the brink of buying” Bitcoin, suggesting even central banks could soon be on board.

This kind of institutional momentum adds serious weight to the supercycle theory.

🔍 **What’s Next? All Eyes on the June Open**

**```As May 2025 wraps up, there are a few warning signs for traders and investors:```**

![](https://m.stacker.news/94277)

📉 The May monthly candle is closing in the red
📉 Weekly RSI is declining, even as price remains near multi-week highs.
📉 Bearish divergences and thinning volume are emerging.

_If June opens weak, it could confirm a short-term BTC correction is already underway._

🔐 **Key Levels to Watch**

**```Support & resistance zones that could define the coming weeks:```**

🟢 Immediate support: $102,000
🟠 Next key support zone: $96,000–$98,000
🔴 Resistance ahead: $106,500, then $110,000

_If BTC breaks below $102K and tests the $96K zone, it may trigger panic selling. Conversely, a strong bounce could reignite the rally._

✅ **Conclusion: Bullish Macro, Bearish Short-Term?**

_While long-term momentum remains intact, caution is warranted in the next 48 hours. If May ends weak and June begins with selling pressure, a Bitcoin price crash may already be underway._

**In short:**

```>``` The supercycle may be real but the path won't 
be smooth. Expect turbulence before liftoff.
