Trump’s campaigns focused on the crypto community before the elections. The president-elect spoke at the Bitcoin Conference 2024, the world’s largest Bitcoin gathering. He promised the crypto community that he would end the war on crypto initiated by the

Before Joe Biden even set foot in the Oval, his administration had already placed a $1.9 trillion bet that would define his presidency—and not in the way Democrats had hoped.

With the ink barely dry on a $900 billion COVID-relief package passed under Trump, Biden and his advisers decided to double down. Their plan? The American Rescue Plan (ARP), a sweeping fiscal package to pull the U.S. out of the pandemic’s grip.

It was bold. It was expensive. And it backfired… spectacularly.

Ripple’s CEO Brad Garlinghouse told NBC’s Trina Robinson that XRP was the second most valuable crypto token before the U.S. SEC’s interference. Garlinghouse said the government was arbitrarily picking crypto winners and losers instead of providing a level playing field for digital assets like it was meant to.

The Ripple boss expressed his disappointment, saying that the lengthy legal battle between Ripple and the U.S. SEC had been frustrating for the XRP family. He mentioned that Ripple had spe

Nvidia has been running circles around the rest of the S&P 500 all year. So far this year, the company has tripled its market cap, single-handedly driving market returns while leaving rivals choking on dust.

With its earnings set to drop exactly two days from now, investors are waiting to see if the chipmaker can keep up the pace. But Trump’s comeback tour, featuring promises of new trade wars, is rattling nerves.

The artificial intelligence boom has sent Wall Street bankers, private equity giants, and debt financiers into a frenzy as they scramble to get a piece of the $1 trillion—and possibly $2 trillion—needed to power AI’s takeover of the world.

Data centers, power grids, and communication networks are the battlegrounds, and nobody wants to sit this one out. Morgan Stanley reportedly hosted a high-profile dinner this weekend in New York to strategize.

Donald Trump has always treated the stock market like his personal scoreboard. Back in his first term, he used every high in the S&P 500 as a victory lap, bragging about 401(k)s and pushing Americans to buy the dip whenever the market stumbled.

He even blamed Fed Chair Jerome Powell for selloffs and reportedly considered firing him at one point. Now, as he prepares for a second term, he’s making the S&P 500 the centerpiece of his economic agenda all over again.

For Wall Street, that’s good and

The recent Bitcoin surge has caught personal finance advisors unwilling to adopt Bitcoin and other digital assets off-guard.

According to several finance experts and analysts, some advisors are still against their clients dipping their feet in the crypto sector. A research carried out by Cerulli Associates in July showed that out of 1,500 financial planners, only 2.6% told their clients about crypto, while only 13.7% had ever used crypto with their clients.
