Year in Review 2025: Crypto Enters Adulthood
From adolescence to adulthood, 2025 marked the year blockchain crossed from fringe to core financial infrastructure. Seventeen years after Bitcoin's release, the industry has found product-market fit and come of age: stablecoins and tokenization are rewiring legacy finance with institutions bridging liquidity to onchain capital markets. As institutions continue to “tokenize everything” the distinction between onchain and off-chain asset classes are dissolving. The total value of tokenized rea...

Stablecoin Summer on Wall Street
Wall Street is moving onchain - migrating to a parallel financial system where anything of value moves at the speed of the internet. Last month, Congress passed the GENIUS Act, providing institutional legitimacy for the +$257 billion stablecoin market and regulatory clarity for payment stablecoins issued in the United States. Fundstrat Global Advisors’ Tom Lee refers to stablecoins as the “ChatGPT moment for crypto". One of the first products in the sector with mainstream utility. The GENIUS ...

Twelve Years of Magic Internet Money
I started My Crypto Advisor (MCA) in 2018 after several failed attempts at explaining Bitcoin and self-custody to colleagues, family, and friends since 2013. We started in local coffee shops and small business groups, attracting all walks of life to our presentations. No business model. No plan. Just a passion for educating the community on Web3.

TradFi in the Front, DeFi in the Back
Software is disrupting financial services – a renaissance is emerging as the closed proprietary systems of Traditional Finance (TradFi) converge with permissionless, open-source Decentralized Finance (DeFi) protocols on public blockchains. The wider impact on society is presently unnoticeable to the general public.

Bitcoin: From "Digital Gold" to Consumer Applications
From the streets of El Salvador to the boardrooms of Wall Street, shifting market dynamics have propelled Bitcoin from the fringes of the internet to the center of global financial discourse. The return of Tether (USDt) on Bitcoin signals its evolution from the “digital gold” and “store-of-value” narrative to a payment network powering the tokenization of financial assets. Bitcoin holds a dominant position in the digital asset sector, reflected by a 60% dominance, and market capitalization of...
