https://youtu.be/KbC8FHuWgpg - Bitcoin surged to new heights in 2021 as companies like Tesla and Mastercard warmed to crypto. But with regulators circling, the currents ahead are likely choppy.
Bitcoin is the talk of the financial world. Bitcoin surged to new heights in 2021 as companies like Tesla and Mastercard warmed to crypto.
Bitcoin has matured from a virtual currency used by criminals to an asset that's been embraced by Wall Street firms. Many investors now liken the cryptocurrency to gold, believing it provides a store of value akin to the precious metal.
But as regulators start taking a closer look at crypto and volatility plagues the market, whether bitcoin can continue its stellar run looks increasingly uncertain.
So, what's next for bitcoin? Watch the video above to learn what the future holds in store for the No. 1 crypto.
https://youtu.be/Aqi4qxmFVJU - Stablecoins are supposed to be everything tokens like bitcoin and ether aren’t.
Whereas bitcoin’s price fluctuates sharply, stablecoins are designed to be worth the same as something else — usually the U.S. dollar. Many stablecoins are also issued directly by companies, whereas bitcoin operates independently of any central authority.
Recent events have shown that not all stablecoins are as stable as they’re made out to be. TerraUSD, a so-called “algorithmic” stablecoin, fell below its peg dramatically, eventually crashing to a fraction of a cent and bringing an associated coin down with it.
The debacle has led to fresh scrutiny from regulators, who are worried stablecoins will one day get so big they could cause damage to the larger economy if they fail.
Tether, the world’s largest stablecoin, is a $70 billion juggernaut in the crypto world. But the company, which claims each of its tokens can be redeemed for exactly one dollar, has long faced doubts about the assets that underpin it.

https://youtu.be/eAMCcnxXLhM - Some crypto enthusiasts want a new kind of internet that yanks power away from Big Tech and hands it to people. Can they succeed?
Remember AOL chatrooms and downloading songs through Napster? The internet has come a long way.
Today, it’s dominated by Meta, Google and a handful of other tech giants whose services have made it easier for billions of people to communicate and share content online.
But at what cost? “If something is free, you are the product,” so the saying goes — the only reason platforms like Facebook and YouTube can offer their services for free is because they use our personal data to target us with ads.
“Right now, you have big organizations who are controlling your data and providing you services that use your data,” says Bertrand Perez, chief operating officer of the Web3 Foundation.
Web3 is a hypothetical, future version of the net based on blockchain technology. Crypto enthusiasts say their vision for the web would decentralize it, pushing it closer to its roots. But big-name detractors — from Jack Dorsey to Elon Musk — aren’t convinced.
