Bitcoin's price hits $79,000, signaling potential gains, say VanEck analysts.

Crypto pundit Star has revealed that decentralization in crypto is a myth, citing Tether's recent freeze of $344 million USDT. This action, coordinated with U.S. authorities, highlights the centralization within crypto networks and firms.

A private crypto conference hosted by Donald Trump features speakers like Mike Tyson, Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino, and Ark Invest's Cathie Wood. The event focuses on financial inclusion and the intersection of AI and cryptocurrency.
