Turns out most people use a bitcoin wallet the same way they'd use any wallet:
To hold their own money and spend it on their own terms
Our new report with @GlobalDigitalFi, @trmlabs, @coinbase & @blocks shows this in new data — and it's why we're building Bitkey for you: True ownership of your money, no middleman holding your keys.

As the cherry on top of this week 🍒 the ravens concluded at this dinner hosted by @GlobalDigitalFi, @binance, and @elliptic. Our warmest thanks to @Elise_X_Digital and @lwintermeyer for such a wonderful way to close the week!
Humanoid robot kick boxers might disagree but @BillGates, The Bank of England and The IMF all say that we are in the middle of an #AI bubble. Big investors also disagree.

The recent Bybit hack spotlights an urgent truth: Web3 needs a robust, decentralized defense against evolving cyber threats.
This new @Forbes article by @lwintermeyer examines how DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) could transform Web3 security—featuring insights from Naoris Protocol about how we create a trustless, collaborative cybersecurity layer for the entire blockchain ecosystem.
Why it matters?
• No single point of failure: Centralized systems remain prime targets for malicious actors.
• Community-driven protection: A decentralized approach, like Naoris Protocol’s, mitigates risk by dispersing the security function across the network.
• Building safer digital worlds: DePIN is an important part of next-gen security frameworks—ensuring integrity, resilience, and trust in Web3.

.@YuvalRooz, our CEO and co-founder, stresses the importance of moving from theoretical discussions to practical applications. He sees the main opportunity in collateral mobilization, where participants seek real-time DVP and measurable business value. This shift can bring tangible benefits and solutions to the table.

It was my privilege to engage with Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji of India — a nation projected to ascend as the world's third-largest economy by 2027.
His address at The Times Group Global Business Summit 2024 was a testament to India's burgeoning economic prowess.
The summit, in its 8th iteration, convened in New Delhi, distinguished itself with an assembly of eminent speakers and was orchestrated with commendable finesse — a reflection of India's organizational acumen on the global stage.
