🔥 I Don’t Trust in Music NFTs”: French Electronic Producer DJ Agoria

While some see music NFTs—unique digital assets that often have both musical and visual components—are the future of the music industry, opening up new opportunities for both artists and fans, DJ Agoria, a prominent French electronic producer, composer, and DJ isn't too keen on the hype.

“Since the beginning, I was saying that I don't trust in music NFTs, even if I'm a DJ, an artist, and a musician. We don’t want to make music NFTs mainstream, we want music NFTs to be rare, and the fact that we develop things that people desire or fight to get, excites me more,” DJ Agoria told Decrypt at this year's NFT Paris.

For him, it's about going beyond platforms like Spotify where "for $10, you can have any type of music at any time."

DJ Agoria started his career back in the 1990s when raves dotted clubs around Europe, and those vibes are still alive today, making him “really believe in the desire and the need to look for something more.”

💬STOCK MARKET REVIEW (DXY & SPX)

U.S. Dollar Index has been unstoppably growing for 12 weeks straight! As the result, S&P500 Index was falling during this time. Crypto survived not the best time as well.

However, at the moment DXY is approaching a strong ascending trend line, while SPX is reaching the strong support level.

What does it mean? If U.S. Dollar Index stops growing and rejects from the resistance, we may finally see some bullishness on SPX and therefore on Crypto too.

🔼Bitcoin is up 75% since Jim Cramer told investors to 'get out' in January

Renowned television personality and esteemed host of the popular show “Mad Money,” Jim Cramer, has emerged as a prominent critic of cryptocurrencies, particularly Bitcoin (BTC).

In a bold statement made on January 9, Cramer advised his audience that the current climate presented a “good chance again to get out of crypto,” specifically referencing Bitcoin’s trading value at $17,093.

However, it is worth noting that since Cramer’s cautionary declaration, the flagship digital asset has experienced a remarkable surge, presently trading at $30,020—an impressive 75% increase.

Year-to-date, BTC soared by more than 80%. Remarkably, over the past week alone, Bitcoin has surged by an impressive 17%, exemplifying its resolute upward trajectory. The cryptocurrency’s value soared from $25,500 to above $30,000, resulting in a substantial boost of $80 billion to its market capitalization.

Such overwhelming Bitcoin ETF interest from esteemed institutional investors like BlackRock (NYSE: BLK), Invesco, and WisdomTree has undoubtedly contributed to Bitcoin’s recent surge, further reinforcing its position as a digital asset of immense significance.

➡️Digital Art Collective Wildxyz Introduces Curatorial Board to Grow Experiential Art Program

Douglass Kobs, CEO of Wildxyz, told CoinDesk that the board will help carry forward the company’s mission of becoming a patron of digital and experiential art.

“Everything we do at Wild is geared towards supporting and uplifting forward-thinking creatives and artists as they define the next era of the spatial internet,” said Kobs. “We also want to foster an incredibly safe, collaborative, rich space for collaboration – making Wild a place where you can truly do your best work.”

In March, Wildxyz raised $7 million in seed-funding to build out its residency program focused on experiential art. In May, Wild Curatorial Board artist Harm Van Dorpel teamed up with vehicle manufacturer Mercedes Benz and digital art organization Fingerprints DAO to create an NFT collection inspired by automotive concepts.

💸Billionaire Michael Saylor Responds to Charlie Munger's Criticism of Bitcoin – This is What He Said

Michael Saylor, the co-founder and former CEO of MicroStrategy, has addressed Charlie Munger's criticism of Bitcoin, claiming that he hasn’t taken the time to understand Bitcoin.

In a Friday interview with CNBC, Saylor said he is "sympathetic" to Munger's criticism of the broader crypto market, noting that thousands of altcoins are little more than avenues for "gambling." However, he argued that Warren Buffett’s right-hand man would have had a different idea about Bitcoin if he studied it.

“If he was a business leader in South America or Africa or Asia and he spent a 100 hours studying the problem, he’d be more bullish on bitcoin than I am,” Saylor explained, adding:

“The Western elites have not had the time to study … but I’ve never really met someone with an incentive living in the rest of the world that spent some time thinking about it that wasn't enthusiastic about bitcoin.”

👥Did Bitcoin Price Crash to $25K Because of Fake SpaceX News?

The price of Bitcoin, the flagship cryptocurrency, experienced a sharp decrease, dropping 8% and falling below the $26,000 mark for the first time since June.

Some attribute the sudden plunge to a social media post by Bitcoin Magazine, which claimed that Elon Musk's SpaceX had sold all of its $373 million worth of Bitcoin. The post went viral, generating over 2.4 million views. However, subsequent clarifications have raised doubts about the accuracy of this claim.

The Wall Street Journal, cited as the source of the news, had in fact reported that SpaceX "wrote down the value of Bitcoin it owns" last year (as noted by a Community Note next to the post).

This means that the company had not recently offloaded its Bitcoin holdings, contrary to the narrative presented by Bitcoin Magazine.

The misleading information led to a wave of reactions, with social media users like Autism Capital accusing the magazine of spreading "FUD" (fear, uncertainty, doubt) and damaging its credibility.

➡️Beeple Goes Punk With $208K NFT Purchase

The artist who created the most expensive non-fungible token ever sold has finally made his first profile-picture NFT purchase.

On Tuesday afternoon, Mike Winkelmann, better known as Beeple, bought CryptoPunk 4953 for 113.7 ETH, which cost him $208,000, according to data from Etherscan.

Last week, Beeple posted a tweet sharing he was “in the market for a punk,” claiming he had “never actually purchased a single PFP.” Several days later, he asked his followers what the best traits were for his punk purchase.

While Beeple didn’t immediately confirm he purchased the punk, CryptoPunks Brand Lead Noah Davis posted a tweet sharing a text conversation he had with Beeple about the NFT purchase. It’s somewhat of a full circle moment for Davis, who previously worked in digital art sales at auction house Christie’s and helped facilitate the record-breaking $69 million sale of Beeple’s Everydays: The First 5,000 Days in March 2021.

Late Tuesday evening, Beeple shared an original digital artwork titled “A Punk Is Born,” featuring himself made up as his new punk, with CryptoPunk 4953 in the upper right corner of the image as well as on the tiny computer screen.

Beeple chose one of the rarer punks in the collection, making his purchase the most expensive NFT sold in the past 24 hours according to data from CryptoSlam.
