Bitcoin seems to be trading in line with Trump’s Polymarket odds.

Which means one thing👇

If he wins there will be a “sell the news” event.📉

Ignore the lobbyists on both sides. These are special interest groups. Their success in crypto has no bearing upon your future success.

Should Futures & Options be made simple? Is there merit in simplifying a trading feature not often associated with beginners?

At @PeepalCo, our answer is a resounding YES. Today, I'm proud to announce the launch of F&O trading on @LemonnHQ. Trade derivatives in just 4 clicks! ✨

The way I see it: Simplicity is as valuable to an advanced user as to a beginner.

Product builders often tend to associate simplicity with just novel users. As a result, they overlook the need to simplify sophisticated products. But even the most advanced users can benefit from simplicity.

Paddle shifts are an example. Brought to production by #Ferrari in 1989 for its F1 race drivers.... so the most advanced and technically superior drivers on earth can go about their job a little easier.

The rest, as they say, is history.

F&O traders are like race drivers... their risk tolerance is higher and they've deep technical knowledge. But they too value simplicity.

Super proud of Devam Sardana & @LemonnHQ team for the effort they have put to this. They've questioned assumptions and taken a first-principles approach.

Take Lemonn for a spin, and let us know your feedback.  We will continue to iterate and refine @LemonnHQ — this is just the beginning.

You've read till now, so here's a bonus: ZERO brokerage for a whole year!
We are waiving off account opening fee and #trading #brokerage for the next 12 months for all new users.

US securities regulator approves #bitcoin ETFs in watershed for crypto market

Looks like several offshore exchange apps have started getting blocked on app stores in India, as per a government directive earlier.

If you'd like to move your crypto to a compliant, Indian exchange, head to @CoinSwitch PRO on https://t.co/TBopTe80HO

Historic! The US SEC approval of #BitcoinETF marks a monumental shift in the financial world. It's a watershed moment for crypto and will bring in a new wave of investors. Now, even the most cautious funds and the titans of Wall Street can tap into Bitcoin's potential.

⚡️Expect a retail influx:

An ETF will be the simplest form of Bitcoin exposure for retail users. Investors can seamlessly benefit from Bitcoin price movements without the complexities of digital wallets or drastic investment strategy overhauls.

Imagine the impact if 401(k) retirement plans start investing in Bitcoin ETFs. These funds manage a staggering $6 trillion for about 60 million Americans. That influx of retail investors will familiarize crypto even further and help onboard millions of new users to crypto.

⚡️Institutions to enter DeFi:

A Bitcoin ETF will also spur institutional adoption of crypto. High-frequency trading firms of Wall Street actively arbitrage on regular ETFs—trading on the difference between the face value and the underlying value.

These institutions will find new opportunities in crypto: Unlike the traditional trading hours of ETFs, the crypto market is round-the-clock. Expect these giant trading firms to become more active on DeFi in the coming years.

⚡️Gold standard:

While ETF news could bring some short-term volatility in the market, the bigger picture is the long-term potential. For comparison, Gold prices quadrupled since the SPDR Gold Shares—the first US-traded gold ETF—went live in 2004.

Bitcoin is also widely referred to as digital gold, and even scarcer with a capped supply of 21 million. With the growing demand for Bitcoin as a store of value, analysts predict strong potential for value appreciation in the long term.

Not financial advice. DYOR.

Transparency and diligent risk management are of utmost priority at @CoinSwitch.

Our decision last year to conduct an independent Proof of Reserves review, the first in India, spoke to this commitment. At the time, we pledged to continue this practice of transparency and trust-building.

Today, we are publishing the second edition of our Proof of Reserves.

The POR shows CoinSwitch's holdings are greater than our users'. That is, we maintain a holdings ratio of 1:1 or more—for crypto and fiat balance.

👉CoinSwitch’s total holdings, including crypto and fiat, is Rs 1944.8 crore; and the total holdings of the users, including crypto and fiat, is Rs 1431.30 crore.

The independent review was conducted on March 31, 2023, the closing day of the financial year 2023.

If you want the latest data, we got that covered too: Our POR release includes our wallet addresses.

Our POR brings together the reliability of proven standards and the transparency of blockchain technology. With our public wallet addresses, users can also review the holdings using blockchain explorers.

In addition to the independently reviewed POR data, we are also publishing the latest crypto holdings data (as of publishing date) to give our users up-to-date information.

With our second POR, users will not have to second-guess the safety of their assets.

Congratulations @singh_sequoia, @shaileshlakhani, and the Sequoia India team on the rebranding. You’ve been great investors and early believers in us and India's growth story.

Thank you for your continued support!

What was your introduction to #crypto? Mine was in 2014 when I started dabbling with Bitcoin nodes and codes.

Share your first experience of investing in crypto, and I’ll gift a pizza for the most unique story. Let's celebrate together with a #pizza! 🍕🍕🍕
#BitcoinPizzaDay

[Ashish Singhal @ashish343]

On May 22, 2010, #Bitcoin was used to purchase #pizza, a first-such use case for crypto. Prior to this, Bitcoin was only used for on-chain use-cases. However, Laszlo's purchase of 2 pizzas for 10,000 Bitcoins demonstrated crypto’s utility as a medium of exchange in real-world.
