From an abandoned breeding facility in Japan to becoming the face of Dogecoin and influencing real markets, Kabosu’s journey blends tenderness, chaos, internet culture, economics, and humanity. A story about how something small can trigger enormous consequences in the digital world.

WHY I FELL IN LOVE WITH MACHIAVELLI (THE MISUNDERSTOOD BAD REPUTATION GUY)
A personal dive into the real Machiavelli — not the villain pop culture invented, but the sharp observer of human fear, power and fragility. The post unpacks why his brutal honesty still feels like an act of care: he doesn’t sweeten reality, he reveals it. And in that clarity, he gives you space, judgment, and a way to stay whole in a world that pushes you to disappear.

The bank that was never going to touch crypto… opened a wallet
A European central bank that was supposed to “never touch crypto” quietly opened a Bitcoin wallet. The Czech National Bank bought BTC, stablecoins and a tokenized deposit—an institutional gesture that matters far more than the amount. If confirmed, it puts Europe ahead of the U.S. in legitimization, sets precedent for bigger banks, and signals a shift in how traditional finance relates to digital assets. A small move on paper, a structural crack in the global narrative.

Movements that shouldn’t be happening this in sync
A walk through the week’s most unsettling crypto signals: from Argentina’s AL30 turned into a token to massive Bitcoin outflows from Binance, Visa’s fiat→USDC bridge, IBM’s quantum leap, and new global tactics for seizing Bitcoin. Between infrastructure shifts, regulation pressure, AI trading on its own, and markets that behave like living systems, the landscape stops being “news” and becomes a symptom.

Bitcoin, GTA 6 and the predictions that feel scripted
The crypto market feels scripted: Google adds Polymarket to Finance, Bitcoin-to-a-million predictions jump 48% after GTA 6’s new delay, and Zcash skyrockets a thousand percent. Willy Woo foresees the end of the correction, Tangem links wallet and Visa, and a legal case reminds us that behind the code are real people. A loop between hype, markets, and fiction.

Globant + YPF and the fable that 'only now' AI is replacing us
Globant and YPF announce their alliance with AI, but the text dismantles the illusion of novelty: from PID controllers to modern algorithms, machines have always been “thinking.” The post blends irony and critique to reveal that the real replacement isn’t driven by technology — but by learned docility. From television to algorithms, manipulation changed format, not method. An ardent reflection on obedience, faith, and independent thought.
