By 2025, TVL is concentrated in lending, liquid staking, and restaking protocols.
The shift shows DeFi moving from activity-heavy apps to balance-sheet infrastructure, where capital stays parked and productive for longer periods.
DeFi is maturing.

$660,000,000 in Bitcoin… Locked Behind 2 Password Guesses
He owns 7,002 $BTC
Worth $660,000,000 today.
And he can’t access any of it.
This is Stefan Thomas’ nightmare 👇
In 2011, he got paid 7,002 #BTC for making a simple “What is Bitcoin?” video.
He stored it on an IronKey USB.
Military-grade encryption.
Password written on paper.
Then… he lost the paper.
The catch:
IronKey allows only 10 password attempts.
After that → self-destruct. Forever.
He’s already used 8 attempts.
❌ Only 2 guesses left.
One wrong move = $660M gone forever.
A top cybersecurity firm says they can crack it.
He said NO,

SINCE 2020: NVIDIA Dominated… But the Next Cycle Could Belong to Bitcoin
#NVIDIA Market Cap
$120.59B → $4.9T ( ~41× )
#Bitcoin Market Cap

Reality Check: NVIDIA outperformed Bitcoin over the last cycle.
But markets rotate. What led yesterday doesn’t always lead tomorrow.
Looking ahead, the Next 4–5 Years are more likely to favor $BTC as Liquidity, Adoption, and Monetary shifts play out.
Cycles change. Leaders change.

$ETH ON-CHAIN WARNING ZONE
Ethereum is sitting on critical on-chain support.
Three key metrics are being stress-tested 👇
→ MVRV Z-Score
→ Market Cap Growth
→ Delta Growth
