For over twenty years, Xbox and PlayStation have been rivals in the gaming console market, a competition that began when the first Xbox launched in 2001. The original Xbox found huge success with the popular first-person shooter Halo: Combat Evolved.

The world of digital coins – that strange, shimmering mirage of hope and hype – saw its river of money swell again last week. $921 million flowed into crypto ETPs like thirsty farmers watching rain finally hit their parched land. And all because folks started whispering that maybe, just maybe, the mighty Fed might cut rates. Hope – that old trickster – is back in town. 💸
