Richard Teng, CEO of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, Binance, believes the trading giant is past the cultural issues after it settled criminal charges from the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) with a $4.3 billion fine.

Following a relatively quiet weekend, in which BTC stayed at around the same levels, it went on the offensive once again on Monday to over $71,000. However, Bitcoin failed to overcome that...

A meme began making its way around crypto Twitter earlier this month, pointing out that Bitcoin now has the number of active users that the Internet had in 1997. But the reality is even more interesting: Bitcoin most likely has far more users today than the Internet had the year Amazon debuted on Wall Street. That means Bitcoin investors may be running out of time to capitalize on stellar market returns driven by growth in user adoption. Our Sources: 70M Internet Users 1997 |...
