Trademark filings reveal plans for ETFs, including the Truth.Fi Bitcoin Plus ETF, signaling Donald Trump\u2019s persistent foray into the crypto world.<\/p>\n<p>Long story short: You are not nearly bullish enough.<\/p>\n<p>JUST IN:  Utah\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Bitcoin?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">#Bitcoin<\/a> Reserve Bill passes House vote!  <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/2Q2jHRIOzP\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pic.twitter.com\/2Q2jHRIOzP<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Swan (@Swan) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Swan\/status\/1887641156369981468?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">February 6, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p>Once a vocal supporter of Bitcoin during his campaigns, President Donald Trump\u2019s name carries weight in this space.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re pretty much all dependent on him to pump our bags in 2025. Well, partially. Bitcoin will perferom no matter who\u2019s president, right?<\/p>\n<p>The timing of all this aligns with a surge in Bitcoin ETF activity, bolstered by recent regulatory nods for spot Bitcoin funds.<\/p>\n<h2>New Pepe Airdrop: What You Need to Know<\/h2>\n<p>So I woke up this morning and saw \u201cPepe Airdrop\u201d was trending.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy\u201d I thought. I\u2019m pretty\u00a0<em>in the know.\u00a0<\/em>I work as a journalist, I listen to hip new artists like The Temptations. How could I miss this airdrop.

If someone sends you a message, no matter how affable or in some cases, coercive, never share any of your private information or funds.<\/p>\n<p>And if you have been scammed and fallen victim, as most of have at some time, there\u2019s no point regretting the past when it offers so many lessons. Just remember, there are always people willing to take advantage of you.<\/p>\n<h2>Is David Sacks Rugpulling Us Like The Pepe Airdrop?<\/h2>\n<p>People thought David Sacks of PayPal Mafia and\u00a0<em>All-In Podcast<\/em>\u00a0fame and his bros would lay out some sort of imminent and amazing plan for crypto.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, in his first press conference as Crypto Czar, all he essentially said was, \u201cWe\u2019re working on it.
