Unsustainable Bond Yields Will Lead to Hyperbitcoinization: Analyst
Rising government bond yields signal a coming “structural” shift that will create a Bitcoin “supercycle” of rising prices, as investors flee debasing assets for one that cannot be inflated, according to Shang Wu, a senior research analyst at crypto exchange BitMEX. The yield on the 30-year US Treasury broke past 5.14% on Tuesday, while the Bank of Japan’s 10-year government bond yield touched 2.8%, Wu said. These yields are unsustainable in the long-term and will force governments to choose between debasing their currencies and a “sovereign debt collapse,” Wu said.…
Buterin Says Ethereum Foundation Is Not the ‘Center’ of Ethereum
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin responded to growing criticisms of the Ethereum Foundation’s role in the Ethereum ecosystem, pushing back against critics who want the organization to take a more active role in supporting token prices and marketing.

Dogecoin Price Repeating 2024 Setup With Retest Of Fib Fan Before Possible Breakout Wave
Dogecoin is at a technical area that will look very familiar to traders who followed its 2024 rally.
