I just saw that Robert Kiyosaki is once again making strong waves with his market predictions. This time he warns of a possible stock market crash in 2026 that, according to him, could be the biggest in history. And honestly, after following his career for years, his analyses on where money is headed are always worth listening to.
His argument is interesting: he claims that the financial problems of 2008 were never truly resolved, only covered up. This has left huge vulnerabilities in the system that are now manifesting. If you have market experience, you probably recognize the logic behind th

I recently came across an interesting perspective from Chamath about where capital is headed in the AI era. Basically, the argument is that as artificial intelligence continues disrupting all traditional sectors, the assets that survive are those immune to that disruption.
And this is where Bitcoin comes in. Chamath describes it as Digital Capital, and the logic makes sense: it is scarce, it is neutral, it cannot be disrupted by technology because its value does not depend on a business model or traditional competition. While conventional tech companies see their competitive advantages evapora

Stani Kulechov will be in Cannes at the end of this week speaking at Cointelegraph Connect, so if anyone is interested in DeFi, it’s probably worth listening to him. The guy is the founder of Aave, so he knows quite a bit about the subject.
I don’t know if many realize, but Stani Kulechov has been one of the people who has led Aave to become what it is today. The talk is on April 2nd at the Canopy by Hilton, nothing extraordinary but it sounds interesting for those who want to hear perspectives on the future of decentralized finance directly from someone on the front lines.
Is anyone else goin

I just saw an interesting exchange in the crypto community worth commenting on. Michael Saylor has been arguing that the limited supply of Bitcoin makes it virtually impossible for the global population to own the cryptocurrency, but Samson Mow, CEO of Jan3, responded with a straightforward mathematical analysis to refute that position.
Samson Mow's point is simple but effective: if we take the 21 million Bitcoins and distribute them evenly among the 8.1 billion people on the planet, each person could have approximately 259,259 satoshis. Basically, he's saying that the narrative of absolute sc

I just saw that Elon Musk's fortune has already surpassed 800 billion dollars. It's something that never ceases to amaze, honestly. According to the latest Forbes data from March, his net worth reached 839 billion, making him the first person in history to reach this level of wealth.
What’s interesting is how all of this has escalated in recent months. Just in the last month, he accumulated another 64 billion, and since the start of 2026, he has gained over 100 billion in his net worth. It’s basically like earning the GDP of entire countries every month.
Looking back, the milestones have happe

I just found out that BRICS is moving forward with a new digital currency called Unit. It's not just another project, but a pretty ambitious prototype aimed at changing how trade happens among these countries.
What’s interesting is how it’s structured. The BRICS-backed currency supported by Unit combines two elements: 40% physical gold and 60% of the member countries’ currencies (Brazilian real, Chinese yuan, Indian rupee, Russian ruble, and South African rand, all with equal weight). That is, it’s not just air; it has tangible backing.
Think about it for a moment. This is no coincidence. BRIC

I just found out that in the State of Mexico, the validity of license plates is 5 years, while in Mexico City they only last 3. I don't know about you, but that's a pretty significant difference if you own a car. Basically, it means that if you live in the State of Mexico, your registration card is renewed every 5 years, saving you paperwork and headaches compared to the capital. The validity of the plates is directly linked to the document, so everything is together. I also learned that there was an incentive program for those with pending debts. If your plates were from 2021 and you owed veh

I just reviewed a quite revealing McKinsey study about what separates fintechs that truly take off from those that remain stuck. The conclusion is straightforward: those that master data analysis grow 2.6 times faster. And what's interesting is that the gap isn't closing; quite the opposite. Companies with mature analytical capabilities continue to gain an advantage as they refine their models.
But here’s what many in the fintech news industry still don’t understand: data analysis isn’t a support department. It’s literally the engine of competition. Without it, growth becomes costly and fragil

I just found out that Canelo's daughter has a pretty serious modeling career. Emily Cinnamon Álvarez Beltrán closed a runway show at New York Fashion Week with an incredible dress by designer Alonso Máximo. Honestly, I didn't know Canelo's daughter was involved in international modeling.
She is only 18 years old and is already walking runways in New York, not bad at all. The dress she wore was from the Morelia collection, with a wide skirt and puffy sleeves, each color representing something different according to the designer. It seems it was a tribute to a dog the designer once had.
The cute

I just saw that Polymarket is making a pretty interesting move. They integrated Pyth Pro and now offer prediction markets for traditional assets like gold, silver, stocks, and commodities. That is, it's no longer just for political or sports events in the crypto world.
What caught my attention is that traders can now access daily contracts on things like WTI crude oil, natural gas, Tesla, Nvidia, Palantir, and major index ETFs. The charts update every second with live data, which is quite different from what we were used to in these spaces.
According to Polymarket, demand for exposure to real-

Here is the summary of how the pension bonus in February 2026 went. ANSES confirmed that it maintained the monthly mobility scheme, so all pensions were adjusted according to December's inflation, which was 2.84%. With that, the minimum pension increased from $349,299 to $359,219.42. Not bad considering how things were.
What many were waiting for was the extraordinary bonus of $70,000 paid in February 2026. This boost was granted to retirees with the minimum pension, beneficiaries of PUAM, and pensioners for disability or old age. If you earned a little more than the minimum, you received a pr

I just read something interesting about SpaceX that is generating quite a buzz in investment circles. Apparently, Elon Musk's company filed a confidential IPO application with the SEC, and according to Bloomberg, this could be one of the largest listings in U.S. history. We're talking about a valuation above $1.75 trillion with the potential to raise up to $75 billion if the process proceeds as planned.
What caught my attention is that the structure includes dual-class shares to preserve internal control, with around 30% reserved for retail investors. Wall Street banks are already in discussi

I just found out that on March 16th, classes were suspended at the SEP for Benito Juárez's birthday. Basically, it was a three-day long weekend because they moved the official date to the third Monday of the month, so students and workers had extra time off. The thing is, many people didn't realize and continued with their normal plans.
What's interesting is that this happened just before Holy Week, which in 2026 started on March 30th. So, if you planned well, you could have almost two weeks of consecutive vacation. Some colleagues said it was the best month of the year to rest.
Anyway, it jus

I just saw an analysis from JPMorgan that got me thinking: the aluminum market is caught in what they call a "black hole" of supply, and honestly, the situation looks more complicated than many believe.
What happened is quite serious. Iran recently attacked two key refineries in Abu Dhabi and Bahrain, causing a capacity loss that is not easy to recover from. The price of aluminum in London has already surpassed $3,600 per ton—the highest level in four years. But here’s the interesting part: JPMorgan is saying this is just the beginning.
The institution issued an official warning to its clients

Interesting things are happening in the currency markets lately. The conflict in Iran seems to be accelerating carry trade movements in the G10, and the results are quite positive for certain players.
What catches my attention is that the carry trade betting against the yen and the Swiss franc is working wonderfully. Meanwhile, those betting in favor of the Australian dollar, the Norwegian krone, and the British pound are also seeing green numbers. There is a clear logic behind this.
On one hand, the Australian dollar and the Norwegian krone have strengthened because they are commodity-exporti

Something pretty crazy just happened in the market. Allbirds, that shoe brand that a few years ago was the favorite of Silicon Valley tech bros, shot up 876% in a single day on Wednesday. The price jumped from $2.49 to $24.31. Yes, you read that right.
But wait, there's a twist. The company isn't saving its footwear business. In fact, it's doing the exact opposite: it's completely abandoning it.
Allbirds just announced that it's pivoting toward AI computing infrastructure and will rebrand as NewBird AI. The company secured a funding round of up to $50 million, which is expected to close in the

I have been observing for some time how the U.S. debt of $39 trillion is becoming an increasingly central topic in market conversations, and honestly, the scenario painted by Jerome Powell is not something to take lightly. The Federal Reserve chairman acknowledged that although the current situation "is not unsustainable," if action is not taken quickly, the path toward possible fiscal bankruptcy is very real. What’s interesting is that this is not just a theoretical problem: with interest rates between 4% and 5%, the cost of servicing the debt could reach 5.5% of the U.S. GDP, which practical

I just noticed something quite important that has been causing noise in the financial markets lately. The Bank of England has been issuing serious warnings about what might happen in the coming months, and honestly, it's worth paying attention.
The thing is, volatility related to conflicts in the Middle East is affecting much more than many thought. We're not only seeing turbulence in government bonds but also in private credit markets and especially in those U.S. tech companies focused on artificial intelligence. The Bank of England has pointed out that uncertainty is so high that the market

I just reviewed Ark Invest's quarterly report and there's something interesting: the spot Bitcoin ETFs in the United States remain quite stable. We're talking about holdings that ranged between 1.26 and 1.31 million BTC during the first quarter, and by the end of March, they reached 1.29 million.
What catches my attention is that this happened while Bitcoin dropped up to 23% in its maximum drawdown. Normally, when you see such sharp declines, institutional investors start to sell, but that didn't happen here. The positions in these crypto ETFs hardly moved.
This says a lot about institutional

I just found out that Retractable Technologies is distributing severance packages. Something like $122,000 in total for employees affected by internal changes. Apparently, it's part of the company's normal adjustments when restructuring operations.
The interesting part is that analysts say this is quite common in the medical sector now. Supply chains are changing rapidly, technology is advancing nonstop, and all companies are optimizing staff to stay competitive. It is said that the impact on the company's overall operation won't be serious, so it seems to be a moderate adjustment.
