Bored Candle

Once upon a time there was a small, unknown boy named Bitcoin. He was born in January 2009 in a dark, quiet cave full of cryptographic wizards. No one paid any attention to him — he was worth almost nothing, less than a speck of dust. But inside him burned a great dream: to climb the highest mountain in the world, a mountain whose peak no one knew, because it hid in the mists of the future. He told himself: “My height will be my strength. The higher I climb, the freer I will become.”
At first it was very hard. For the first years (2009–2010) he crawled along flat ground — his price barely rose above a grain of sand. Then came May 2010, and Bitcoin took his first real step: he traded 10,000 of his pieces for two pizzas. People laughed: “An entire fortune for pizza?” But he knew this was his first true move upward.
In 2011 he reached the level of one dollar for the first time — as if he had climbed onto his first small hill. Joy! But mountains are cruel. Soon came the storm (the first big hack and crash) and he slid back down.
Then came 2013 — like a new path suddenly opening. He rose quickly: from $150 to $350, then to $1,242! People started shouting: “Look, the boy is climbing!” But the mountain grew angry — in 2014 an avalanche swept him down to $340–530. He lay long in the valley of sorrow and pain.
Yet Bitcoin never stopped dreaming. In 2017 a real tailwind arrived. First he broke $2,000, then $5,000, $8,000, $17,000… and in December 2017 he stood at almost $20,000! Everyone cheered: “He’s almost at the top!” But the mountain was still much taller. In 2018 a terrible storm knocked him down to $3,300. He lay there broken; many already mourned him as dead.
But fairy tales about brave heroes do not end in the valley.
In 2020 came a great darkness — a sick world, fear, a drop to $5,000. But Bitcoin rose again. He began to climb once more: $10,000, $19,000, $40,000… In 2021 he reached a peak no one had imagined — $64,800! He danced on a rocky ledge while the world applauded.
But mountains show no mercy. In 2022 more storms came — he fell to $16,000, even below $18,000. People cried: “He’ll never reach the summit again!”
Bitcoin just smiled into the fog and whispered: “I’m not at the top yet. This mountain is higher than anyone thinks.”
And then came 2024 — a new path opened. Past $45,000, then $73,000… In December 2024 he crossed the magical line of $100,000. People stared with open mouths.
And in August 2025… he reached a summit no one expected: $125,725! He stood there, in wind and sunshine, looking down at all the valleys, avalanches, storms, and at those who once abandoned him.
But do you know what he discovered?
The mountain has no end.
Every peak he reached only revealed another, even higher ridge ahead. So Bitcoin stands on what he thought was the summit, and once again looks upward. He smiles and says:
“I’m not at the end of the journey yet. I’ve only realized that this mountain is endless… and I was born to climb forever.”
And so he continues — sometimes falling, sometimes soaring, but never giving up.
Because the one who was born worth almost zero and decided to climb a mountain with no known peak… has already won long ago.
The end? No. Just another rest before the next steep ascent. 🚀⛰️

2020 - انفجار DeFi وأول اعتماد مؤسسي لعملة البيتكوين
1. صيف DeFi 🚀🚀🚀
طفرة هائلة في التمويل اللامركزي.
قفزت القيمة الإجمالية المقفلة (TVL) في بروتوكولات DeFi من حوالي 1 مليار دولار في بداية العام إلى أكثر من 15 مليار دولار بنهاية العام. وقد مثل ذلك أكثر من 1400% نمو في 12 شهرًا فقط. تم إطلاق جنون الزراعة بالعوائد بشكل رئيسي من قبل Compound (يونيو 2020 - إطلاق التعدين السائل مع رمز COMP)، Yearn.finance (يوليو - الإطلاق العادل لرمز YFI)، ومشاريع أخرى حيث وصلت APYs إلى المئات إلى الآلاف من النسب المئوية.

تصحيح / انهيار سوق ضخم والسؤال "هل هذه القاع؟"🤣🤣🤣
بيتكوين انخفض ~45–50% من أعلى مستوى له في أكتوبر، وإيثيريوم وسولانا أعمق (ETH -60%، SOL -70%+). مؤشر الخوف والجشع عالق في الخوف الشديد لفترة طويلة (~12). الناس يتناقشون: "هل هذا أسوأ من 2022، أم مجرد تصحيح صحي بعد overheating؟"
"هذه المرة مختلفة" مقابل الذعر❤️❤️❤️
الكثير من النقاش حول المؤسسات (بلاك روك، جي بي مورغان)
لا يذعرون
- لا يزالون يوظفون لأدوار التشفير، تتدفق صناديق الاستثمار المتداولة، واللوائح تصبح أكثر وضوحًا (مثل قانون GENIUS للعملات المستقرة في الولايات المتحدة). حتى جي بي مورغان يقول: "2026 ستكون إيجابية، بفضل التدفقات المؤسسية بشكل رئيسي." في هذه الأثناء، يقوم التجزئة بالبيع بكثافة ويسألون إذا كان هذا "فرصة شراء جيلية."

مرحبًا! إليك بعض الحقائق المثيرة والحديثة حول XAUT (تيثير الذهب) وPAXG (ذهب باكس) - أكبر رمزين للذهب الرمزي في عام 2026 (اعتبارًا من فبراير 2026):
تمثل كلتا الرمزين 1 أونصة تروى (أونصة) من الذهب الفعلي في الخزائن (معيار LBMA، نقاء 99.5%+)، لذا فهي مدعومة بنسبة 1:1 من المعدن الحقيقي. يمكنك تداولها على مدار 24 ساعة في اليوم، وامتلاك أجزاء منها، واستخدامها في DeFi - دون الحاجة لتخزين الذهب الفعلي.
حقائق مثيرة للاهتمام ومقارنة (2026):
هيمنة السوق:
معًا، تتحكم في أكثر من 95% من سوق السلع الرمزية على السلسلة. XAUT لديها قيمة سوقية أكبر (~$2.55–$2.62 مليار، ~520k رمز متداول) من PAXG (~$2.26–$2.33 مليار، ~459k رمز). وبالتالي، فإن XAUT لديها سيولة أعلى وأحجام تداول يومية (غالبًا ما تتجاوز $500–800 مليون+).

مرحبًا! إليك بعض الحقائق الرئيسية حول XAUUSDT (حتى فبراير 2026):
XAUUSDT ليست عملة ذهبية رمزية كلاسيكية (مثل XAUT أو PAXG)، بل هي عقد مستقبلي دائم على Binance.
إنه يتتبع سعر الذهب الفوري (XAU/USD) في الوقت الحقيقي.
إنه مشتق (عقود آجلة دائمة) يتم تسويته بالـ USDT، دون تاريخ انتهاء - يمكنك الاحتفاظ بالمراكز طالما تريد (باستخدام آلية سعر التمويل).
أطلقته Binance في أوائل يناير 2026 كالأول في سلسلة من العقود الآجلة الدائمة TradFi (تديرها Nest Exchange في ADGM – أبوظبي، تحت إشراف هيئة الخدمات المالية).

Mt. Gox didn't start as a Bitcoin exchange.
It originally began in 2007 as a platform for trading cards from the game Magic: The Gathering Online (hence the name Mt. Gox = Magic: The Gathering Online eXchange).
In July 2010, it was repurposed into the first major Bitcoin exchange and quickly became the world's largest, handling up to 70% of all Bitcoin transactions by 2013–2014.
In June 2011, a major hack caused a flash crash — Bitcoin price on Mt. Gox dropped from ~$17 to $0.01 (1 cent) in minutes. The exchange went offline briefly, and the hacker only stole ~2,000 BTC.
Then, in February 2014, the exchange completely collapsed — ~850,000 BTC vanished (worth ~$460 million at the time, tens to hundreds of billions today).
Main reasons:
Long-term draining of the hot wallet (started as early as 2011)Chaotic accounting and terrible securityOwner Mark Karpelès wrote the code and managed everything himself
Consequences:
Biggest crypto theft of its eraHelped push better practices (cold storage, proof-of-reserves, audits)Creditor repayments still ongoing (as of 2026)
Classic lesson: Not your keys, not your coins.

Here are some really dark and grim facts about the US dollar that most people prefer to ignore (data as of February 2026):
Since the creation of the Federal Reserve in 1913, the dollar has lost ~96.8–97% of its purchasing power
What you could buy for $1 in 1913 now costs roughly $31–$35.
In other words: The Federal Reserve (the system meant to “stabilize” the currency) has enabled endless money printing → chronic inflation → a silent theft of savings from ordinary people. Many call it legalized wealth transfer from the middle and lower classes to those who own assets (stocks, real estate, bonds, gold).Nixon Shock in 1971 – end of the gold standard turned the dollar into pure fiat paper
Until then, the dollar was at least partially backed by gold. Nixon unilaterally ended it because the US was spending more than it had (Vietnam War + Great Society programs). Since then, the government + Fed can create dollars out of thin air – essentially unlimited. Result? Explosive debt growth, recurring crises (2008, 2020, …), and a dollar that's basically backed by trust in the US military and global hegemony.Weaponization of the dollar – the US's biggest weapon in the world
The US uses dollar dominance (SWIFT, clearing systems, central bank reserves) for sanctions, asset freezes, and financial warfare against adversaries (Iran, Russia, Venezuela, etc.).
Critics (including some allies) call it financial imperialism – freezing billions just because someone disagrees with US policy. Result? Even allies (Saudi Arabia, India, China, Brazil) are rushing to build alternatives (BRICS payment systems, CIPS, local currencies, gold). In 2025–2026, it's increasingly seen as a self-defeating move – the US is sawing off the branch it's sitting on.More than half of all $100 bills are held outside the US – the dollar is de facto global black-market cash
Huge volumes of dollars circulate in the shadow economy, corruption, drugs, arms, and bribes worldwide. The US quietly tolerates it because it sustains demand for the dollar (the so-called “exorbitant privilege”). In plain terms: America's currency is the world's most-used tool for global crime and corruption.Hyperinflation potential – all fiat currencies eventually fail
No fiat currency in history has lasted forever without massive devaluation. Since 1971 (end of gold backing), fiat currencies have seen the highest average inflation in history. If trust in the US cracks (debt over $38.6 trillion, political instability, geopolitical blunders), a rapid loss of confidence could come – and the dollar could lose reserve currency status within a decade (or faster).
So in summary – the dollar isn't “just a currency.” It's a tool of power that let the US live way beyond its means for decades, but at the cost of quietly robbing its own citizens of savings, financially extorting the rest of the world, and building a massive debt + distrust bomb that could explode at any time.
