Opinion by: Dr. Scott Lehr In the early 2000s, getting a loan in the United States without verifying your income or assets was possible. It was called a “no-doc” or “low-doc” loan. The aim was to help self-employed or contract workers, but it was widely abused. Today, lenders verify income, assets, debt and employment. Whether the centralized fraternity likes it or not, the financial world is changing. What once required W-2 wage-and-tax forms, gatekeepers and credit files is now being rebuilt on transparency, autonomy and a blockchain wallet. For the…

Embedding human rights into crypto isn’t optional, it’s foundational
Opinion by: Shady El Damaty, co-founder of Human.Tech Beyond the hype of accelerationist and technophile circles, a quiet crisis of confidence is taking hold in emerging technologies. Crypto and decentralized identity solutions still carry enormous potential to empower individuals and distribute power — but many builders and users are sounding the alarm.

Bitcoin’s breakout isn’t about the Fed, it’s about market structure: analysts
Bitcoin’s record-breaking climb past $118,000 isn’t tied to Fed policy or equities. Instead, analysts say spot ETF demand and corporate treasury strategies are driving this historic move. Meanwhile, altcoins are surging in BTC’s wake.

Bitcoin Maxi Isn’t Buying Hype Around New Crypto Holding Firms
