Web3 isn't some far-off sci-fi fantasy anymore. Yet it’s so much more than crypto bros and dodgy ICOs. It's a fundamental shift in how we think about the internet, and it's about to hit Indian businesses hard. I’m not talking about market disruption, this is a seismic shift that will...

Alexander Gurevich. Or should we call him Alexander Block? The name change, the unexpected ticket to Russia, the airport arrest – it all adds up to an intimidating picture, right? A portrait of madness, a portrait of zealotry, a portrait of desperation, of a man cornered. What compelled him to...

The elephant in the room? Bitcoin isn't lighting fast. Solana has millions of daily active users, Bitcoin is lucky to have a few hundred thousand. The instinct reaction is to dismiss Bitcoin as obsolete, too slow, even inferior. Here’s why I say that this imagined flaw is, in fact, its...

Bitcoin halving biting hard. And then, out of nowhere, BAM! They're pivoting to AI. High-performance computing. Now, all at...

The UK is clamping down on crypto. We all know the headlines: new regulations, increased scrutiny, and restrictions on borrowing to buy digital assets. The official line is consumer protection.
