The past 24 hours have seen some major stories and analyses of the upcoming Bitcoin halving — which is a mere 10 days away — and the consequences of the quadrennial event. Some industry experts and analysts warn that the market may be sailing into choppy waters in the short term as traders approach the halving as a “sell the news” event, but ultimately, fortune will favor the patient. In other news, Charles Hoskinson defends Cardano as it comes under fire, and some damning analysis on memecoins might have you second guessing that moonshot.
