Feels like a win-win dream come true for the institutional players weary from DeFi’s wild west. AIDSocialFi, mapping user behavior with AI? Intriguing, and maybe a little unnerving. The...
Can Wall Street truly teach Main Street? That's the question swirling around SkyCrest Capital's Sky Academy, led by Professor Nathaniel Ross. On the surface, it sounds promising: a program designed to bridge the gap between traditional finance (TradFi) and the sometimes-murky world of decentralized finance (DeFi). If it is, indeed,...
Realizing that the NFT space, for all its buzz about disruption, was actually just a gilded cage.

The AAA password era is coming to an end, and good riddance. Face it, how many different flavors of “Password123!” have you gone through. Passwords period, passwords are a joke.

The crypto world loves a good narrative, and Humanity Protocol's H token is dripping with one: a fairdrop revolution. Yet the promise is unmistakable. We will fight to reclaim airdrops from the arms of the bot armies and restore them to actual, live human beings. The method? Palm scans. Yes,...

Zuckerberg wants AGI. Personal superintelligence, he calls it. An AI that essentially runs your life. Sounds convenient, right? Maybe.
