Trump Tariffs Send Investors Scrambling: Is Bitcoin the New Swiss Bank?


“Geopolitical tensions, tariffs, the usual dramatic choreography—never too dull under our man Trump, even when he ‘walks back’ his own policies with the theatrical precision of a stage magician misplacing a rabbit. Yet, all the thumping and bumping about Mr. Powell’s future has made markets queasier than a first-year undergraduate at the May Ball. If Bitcoin were ever to have its own ‘coming out,’ this would certainly be the moment for it to curtsy. 

The separation from your father’s risk assets is, I admit, in its adolescence: promising, awkward, with spots of hope. For those monitoring crypto tickers with the sleep habits of an insomniac undertaker (guilty!), you can feel a change in the air. Still, hard evidence remains as elusive as a short-sold penny stock. Our favorite barometer—a 90-day rolling window—suggests, ironically, that Bitcoin is still feeling rather chummy with US equities.”

Old Bond vs Young Bond: Which Idea Will Reinvent the Franchise?

The debate over who will take on the role of James Bond next, following Daniel Craig’s departure after No Time To Die, has been ongoing and shows no signs of abating. Earlier statements by Barbara Broccoli and Eon suggested they were seeking a 30-year-old to embody the legendary character, but Amazon’s acquisition could potentially open up new possibilities. As of now, no official announcement has been made, but it’s also plausible that spin-off projects will be developed, expanding the universe of James Bond even more.

It Was Always in My Mind

In a conversation about her MCU comeback in the movie “Thunderbolts”, John-Kamen discussed whether Ghost would continue to be a part of the cinematic universe. She mentioned that since her character didn’t die at the end of “Ant-Man and the Wasp”, she believed it was only a matter of time before Ghost reappeared in some capacity within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In other words, given that Ghost survived her encounter with the main characters, John-Kamen expected to see more of her character in the future.

The Strangest Moment in Aragorn’s Coronation Had a Deeper Meaning Than Most The Lord of the Rings Fans Realize

The words, hailing from J.R.R. Tolkien’s “The Lord of the Rings” novel, were originally spoken by Aragorn in the storyline. Interestingly, as detailed in the commentary for “The Return of the King,” this quote was transformed into a song in the movie. Despite the film not providing subtitles for Aragorn’s song, there was a translation in the book, particularly in the chapter “The Steward and the King” from “The Return of the King.” This song was known as the Oath of Elendil, and it carried a rich history in Middle-earth.

Trump’s “Gold 2.0”? Commerce Secretary Declares Bitcoin America’s Top Treasure

Trump holding Bitcoin

In a tête-à-tête with Frank Corva of Bitcoin Magazine (and really, who among us hasn’t sipped questionable coffee whilst discussing fiscal revolutions?), Lutnick assured the world: forget the coin toss, Bitcoin is no longer just a speculative amusement. It’s become the cornerstone of trade, energy, and American investment—almost glamorous, if one squints hard enough.💫

Greta Gerwig’s White Witch Reinvention: How Emma Mackey Changes the Narnia Villain

As a passionate cinephile, I eagerly anticipate the unique take that Greta Gerwig and Netflix will bring to the Narnia films, as they undoubtedly reimagine certain aspects from the books and prior adaptations, infusing their distinct vision into the story’s foundation. The iconic character of Jadis, once rooted in the Snow Queen archetype from The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, has evolved over time and taken on a more humanly sinister form under Tilda Swinton’s enchanting portrayal. This evolution, coupled with contemporary analysis, has only served to deepen her impact. Gerwig and Mackey are set to reinvigorate this cherished fantasy antagonist, making it an opportune moment to reflect upon the past interpretations of her character.

Every David Cronenberg Movie, Ranked

Instead of consistently startling neighbors with shocking antics, it’s worth noting that David Cronenberg, a groundbreaking and contentious filmmaker from Canada, typically avoids resting on his laurels or his controversial image. True to form for a director who is fascinated by transformation, he has continually evolved throughout his career. His body of work tells a story of violence, but it’s divided into distinct phases: From the raw titillation of “Shivers” to the respected Hollywood horror of “The Fly,” the provocative art-house controversy of “Crash,” and the unexpected prestige recognition during his Viggo period. Despite their differences, all his films share an intense intellectual curiosity that matches the intensity of the violence they depict. Initially dismissed (and much to John Carpenter’s dismay), Cronenberg has always been the choice for intellectuals who appreciate a bit of sleaze and slither in their cinema.
