When I was accused of being “financially illiterate” by a random guy in a bar during a conversation about investing last year, it knocked the wind out of me. After I completely flubbed my words in an attempt to stay afloat, I realized that a new form of anxiety had crept into my subconscious: I, a 36-year-old, grown-ass woman, know nothing about money.I’m not sure how I ended up here.

Best video communication software solutions help me walk teammates through campaigns, share asynchronous updates, and explain ideas to clients when a long message just won’t cut it.

Bitcoin miner selling pressure has fallen sharply, with BTC inflows from miners to Binance dropping to levels not seen since mid-2023. The shift matters because miner distribution is one of the market’s more persistent sources of structural sell-side pressure, and the latest data suggests that pressure has eased for now.
