the fees, gentlemen, are really very very low
stuff that hadn't been seen for many months
it means that whoever had to move things, moved them
obviously I'm referring to ordinals, inscriptions and runes

Now he seems very calm from that point of view
among other things I got an NFT

I did made use of the network yesterday. I sent Bitcoin from my wallet from my wallet yesterday and I was surprised by the amount of sats requested, it was asking for 6 sats actually and I did 7 sats for the transactions and under 7 minutes, my transaction got first confirmation, this is after 5 weeks I last did a transaction and I'm happy we are here but the question is will this last?

I think the reason for this is because the market is calm for now. If Bitcoin make a move to 70k or even above, we are going to experience another month of congestion or even more depending on if bull run click or not.

more than calm I would say that the market is heating up without going online, using ETFs and other financial amenities
this is the main reason why the price goes up
ETFs are asking for x3 times the bitcoins mined at the moment, it is obvious that in such a condition the price can only rise

In the long term, I am still optimistic about BTC's potential to reach $150K-170K in this bullrun. So, whether BTC fluctuates up or down 20-30% in the near future, my only action will still be DCA BTC + top ALTS.

For sure, Bitcoin will be reaching more than $150K in most probability in 2025 when the bull run will eventually reached its peak. of course, the road to that destination is going to be a mixed of many ups and downs, a very usual trait for Bitcoin that we already very much familiar with. And that is why it would be wise to be investing with BTC, alongside gold and silver as the global economy remains to be wobbling in many fronts and as the world is burning due to major conflicts happening in Middle East and in Russia-Ukraine saga. right now, Bitcoin stands at $70K which is getting nearer to the last ATH though am expecting some corrections - which can be so healthy for Bitcoin - before we can witness a new ATH within this quarter.

Bitcoin Policy Institute Launches Fund To Protect Non-Custodial Tools From Regulatory Challenges

The Bitcoin Policy Institute (BPI) has launched its Peer-to-Peer Rights Fund to safeguard the decentralized, peer-to-peer integrity of the Bitcoin ecosystem.

The fund aims to defend non-custodial tools and their developers from regulatory overreach to ensure innovation, privacy, and user autonomy... Read more here.

Their goal is rather important, especially after Tornado Cash developer got jailed recently. I'm not very familiar with BPI though, but it seems they previously only focused on research. Your opinion is greatly appreciated.

Does anyone have personal experience with Joinmarket or at least experience from a reliable source?

I can't access the website, so i assume you're talking about this JoinMarket https://github.com/JoinMarket-Org/joinmarket-clientserver. Personally i haven't tried it yet, since it's not very user-friendly. It also require you to run full node, so i expect almost none of us actually have actual experience with it.

After the departure of Samurai and Wasabi wallets from the Coinjoin feature, Joinmarket seems to be the only remaining "free" option.

You might want to https://joinstr.xyz/, although it's still in development and not ready for mainnet.

Congratulations to the many people who claimed Notcoin! Most of them were newbies to the crypto space, and that was a huge win. It really onboarded a lot of people to the crypto space, and I'm not surprised the project was a success. This got me thinking - these newbies who just got onboarded will need ways to get enlightened and learn more about the ecosystem. That's why I recommend a referral program. I just found out about it and suggested it to my junior brother, who just got onboarded. Since the referral entails joining a community, I feel like the program will help him gain more insight into web3 while inviting his friends to join in too. What do you think, guys? Do you have a better suggestion? Please mention it in the comments section below!

Speaking about referal reminds of the ongoing referral campaign on Bitget and yes, referral is a good start in this space earn some passive income but he has to be very careful about the site he shares to his friends cos one wrong move could tarnish his reputation and put his friends at risk of losing their money.

You're right. He needs to vet the information before wishing it out imo. Ermm, almost all the exchange has ongoing referrals programmes, why did you choose a specific one to be reminded about? Or probably talk more about it..
