What You’re Actually Paying For When You Subscribe to Crypto Advice
Crypto advisory services charge $250-350 monthly, creating fee burdens of 6-30% depending on portfolio size. You’re buying emotional support and commodity information available free elsewhere, without fiduciary duty or liability. For most investors, especially retirees, a one-time consultation and a boring plan beats perpetual subscriptions that profit from your engagement. Continue reading
What Your Crypto Advisor Isn’t Telling You About Bear Markets
Bitcoin’s down 46% from its peak, and crypto advisors are unanimous: it’s time to accumulate. But that advice glosses over opportunity costs, tax headaches, and platform risks. Technical analysis isn’t science, moving averages aren’t magic, and “stay calm” is cheap when it’s not your money on the line. Continue reading
When Your Trading Bot Meets 12 Months of Market Chaos: An Honest Translation
EFX sent a carefully worded update explaining why their bot’s performance has been terrible for a year. Translation: Markets have been historically volatile with multiple back-to-back rare events, the bot is still technically working as designed, and “environmental stress” is a polite way of saying everything’s on fire but the bot hasn’t exploded yet.

Christopher Wood at Jefferies just dumped his entire Bitcoin position for gold, citing quantum computing threats. With 6.26 million BTC—including Satoshi’s fortune—sitting in vulnerable addresses, the crypto industry launched its first quantum-safe testnet. Wall Street’s taking quantum risk seriously.

Why write skeptical posts about alternative investments? Because someone needs to counterbalance the hype—and my red-filled spreadsheet volunteers me as tribute. Continue reading

The Trump Memecoin: A Case Study in What Can Go Wrong
President Trump’s $TRUMP memecoin crashed 92% from its $75 peak. While 764,000 investors lost money, 58 wallets made $1.1 billion and Trump collected $324 million in fees.

Why Your Bitcoin Might Be in for a Rough 2026 (And What to Watch For)
Bitcoin faces mounting headwinds: the Clarity Act is stalled over stablecoin yield disputes, institutional ETF flows remain weak, and the 50-week moving average test ahead will determine if we’re still in a bull market or heading into extended consolidation. Meanwhile, macro uncertainty from government transitions adds complexity to an already murky picture. Continue reading
Privacy Tokens: The Crypto Sector That’s Actually Making Money
While Bitcoin was busy losing money in late 2025, privacy tokens like Zcash were up 861%. Turns out people don’t actually want their boss, government, and random internet strangers seeing every financial transaction they make. Who knew? Now regulators are nervous, which means this sector is either headed for the moon or straight to the VERY hot place. Continue reading
