Fed Rates Steady, Crypto Meltdown: A Tale of Two Turkeys

by

The FOMC, that most enigmatic of committees, declared that economic activity “continues to expand at a solid pace”-a phrase so elastic it could stretch from here to Mars. Job gains, they noted, were “low,” and inflation, that rambunctious guest at the party, remained “somewhat elevated.” As for the Middle East conflict, they described it as “an additional variable,” which, in layman’s terms, means “we’re not entirely sure what’ll happen, but it’ll probably be bad.”

Ethereum’s Price: A Bitcoin Puppet Show

by

What of the grand promises? Regulatory clarity? Institutional access? Tokenized assets? All fine and dandy, but what good are they when the price chart looks like a drunkard’s scribble on a tavern wall? Bitwise’s model, built on 406 weeks of data, concludes with the bluntness of a hammer: Bitcoin’s coefficient is 0.99, rendering Ethereum’s “fundamentals” as impactful as a whisper in a cannon’s mouth. The network’s active addresses? A mere flicker compared to BTC’s blazing sun. Revenue generation? Removed from the model as one removes a fly from soup-“noise rather than signal,” indeed.

Cyberpunk Becomes Kickstarter’s Most Funded TCG Ever

by

Many people know Cyberpunk from the video game Cyberpunk 2077 or the anime Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, but it actually began as a tabletop role-playing game. This original game created a rich history that goes back much further than the more recent versions of the story.

10 Game Boy Advance JRPGs Still Locked on the Original Hardware

by

The Game Boy Advance was selling incredibly well, so many developers started making games for it. While some were marketed as spin-offs, they were often entirely new games. Because of this, several Japanese role-playing game (JRPG) series that didn’t appear on the PlayStation 2 found a new audience on the GBA, either to keep their classic pixel art look or because they wanted to work with Nintendo.

TARA’s XRP $100 Gambit: Five Cycles of Hope and Fibonacci Dreams

by

The methodology? A delicate dance of 0.618 extensions, applied to a 12-month candlestick chart like a poet arranging syllables. Peaks rise and fall in orderly procession, each followed by corrections and accumulation phases-financial hibernation for the asset. Cycle 1, a historical artifact now, capped at $3.65 in July 2025. Cycle 5, the final crescendo, projects a top of $153. All without a single mention of time, as if the future were a clockless village where everyone waits for someone else to decide the hour.

WDS’s Crusades: Book II Review

by

I researched the Crusades using several sources to prepare for this review, including Thomas Asbridge’s scholarly book The Crusades, James Reston Jr.’s engaging Warriors of God, and the How the Crusades Changed History lectures.
