    AI art is like the art in those crappy church pamphlets that told stories. Five-year-old me was not impressed.

    Bitcoin adjacent. More water is still wet.


    53% of Crypto Tokens Launched Since 2021 Have Failed, Most in 2025

    The study looked at token listings on GeckoTerminal between mid-2021 and the end of 2025. Of the nearly 20.2 million tokens that entered the market during that period, 53.2% are no longer actively traded. A staggering 11.6 million of those failures happened in 2025 alone — accounting for 86.3% of all token deaths over the past five years.

    100% of crypto tokens launched since Bitcoin have failed... when measured against Bitcoin.

    Depends on what you mean by 'good'.

    The protocol hasn't changed. The network is still robust and secure. It's still the hardest money ever.

    So, in that sense, yeah, we good.

    The Disclosure of Aliens Could Cause a Bitcoin Rush, Former Bank of England Analyst Says
    She warned of "extreme price volatility in financial markets due to catastrophising or euphoria, and a collapse in confidence."

    "catastrophising"

    I didn't know this was a real word that people took seriously.
