Crypto

The cryptocurrency market in Ukraine is growing rapidly: according to international analysts, our country is consistently among the top 10 countries in terms of crypto activity among citizens. Along with the popularization of digital assets, the number of fraudulent schemes targeting ordinary Ukrainians is also growing. The Ukrainian cyber police records hundreds of calls related to the loss of funds in cryptocurrency every year, and the real number of victims may be much higher, because not all people contact law enforcement agencies with requests to investigate such thefts.

Ми, айтівці, схиблені на автоматизації. Чи не так? Якщо якусь дію треба повторити двічі — ми пишемо скрипт. Ми автоматизуємо деплої, тести, збір логів і навіть замовлення кави. То чому б не автоматизувати власні фінанси?

August 2024. Bitcoin loses almost 30% in three days — not because of a stock market crash or a regulatory ban, but because the Bank of Japan raised its interest rate by a quarter of a percent. Part of the market was operating in a mode of reduced summer activity. Liquidity was noticeably lower. The market simply had no one to put out the fire. That's when I realized: summer in crypto is not a pause or a rest. It's the season when the market becomes most vulnerable to any stimulus. A thin shallow water where an ordinary wave turns into a tsunami. But there is a nuance. The same market subtlety that in August 2024 turned a minor macro signal into a collapse, in another context gives the completely opposite effect - a sharp, uncontrolled upward movement. The question is not whether it is a "weak" or "strong" summer. The question is in what state the market enters this shallow water. That's what we will talk about.

This morning, Bitcoin briefly dropped to levels around $61K, however, unlike ETH and SOL, it did not renew its local lows.

While most companies are debating whether to implement AI in development, some already have six months of statistics. WhiteBIT is one such case.

In March 2026, Mastercard paid $1.8 billion for British company BVNK. The press release is full of the usual corporate talk about stablecoin infrastructure and expanding capabilities. But during a call with investors, an analyst asked why the company didn’t build an analogue on its own. The Mastercard representative’s answer is worth remembering: because it would take «quite a long time.»

There has been a lot of talk over the past two years about AI agents—programs that don’t just write text or generate images, but make decisions on their own, have personal access to user tools, and execute chains of actions. And almost as much talk about the future of digital products not just in agents, but in AI agents on blockchains—decentralized proxies. But the truth is that most AI agents don’t need blockchain.

Turn on any financial channel: inflation continues to eat away at the purchasing power of fiat money, geopolitical conflicts rewrite the world map, and traditional banks periodically run a feverish fever from a liquidity shortage. According to the classic logic of the 20th century, at such moments investors should have fled en masse to cash dollars and hidden gold bars in safes.

The largest European crypto exchange by traffic volume, WhiteBIT, has introduced two new tools that take over the routine of buying and selling cryptocurrencies — Spot Grid Bot and Martingale (DCA) Bot. Their main goal: to help ordinary users work more efficiently in a market where prices constantly and sharply jump, while giving maximum control over their own money.

The price of a crypto is often perceived only as the result of market processes, but unlike traditional assets, where rules exist above the market, in cryptocurrency they are originally built into the protocol — and it is they who shape the behavior and dynamics of the price.

Most IT professionals who get paid in USDT do the same thing: withdraw to fiat and forget. The logic is clear — a stable currency, a clear exchange rate, minimal headaches. But it is at this point that money stops working.
