I just found out something interesting: in Mexico City, there is a legal way to have tinted windows without the risk of a fine. It’s not for everyone, but if you have a dermatological condition or photosensitivity, you can actually apply for an official permit.
The thing is, SEMOVI allows this, but you need a medical certificate from a public health institution. The process costs 417 pesos and is recorded on your vehicle registration. Without this, the fine can be up to 3,394 pesos, so the difference is significant.
The important thing to know is that there are transmissivity standards you mus

Hey, I just saw that last Tuesday was pretty chaotic in Mexico City with the blockades. About 9 protests took place at different locations, from 6 a.m. until after 6 p.m. There was a main march from the Angel of Independence toward the Zócalo at 9 a.m., with family members demanding information about a missing soldier. But the crazy part is that, in addition to that, there were blockades at the Chamber of Deputies, the Anthropology School, Río Churubusco, Reforma where that big corporate building is, again at the Zócalo in the afternoon, and even at a market in Coyoacán. Basically, any route y

I just found out that in Edoméx, the validity of license plates is 5 years, while in Mexico City (CDMX), they only last 3. That’s a pretty big difference considering that here in the capital, you need to renew every 3 years. The vehicle registration in the State of Mexico is directly linked to those plates, so basically you don’t have to go through paperwork every year.
What’s interesting is that the state government activated a program some time ago for people with outstanding debts. If your plates were from 2021 and you had pending payments, you could get 100% forgiveness on past due vehicle

I've been watching how crypto ETFs have been having a tough time lately. March 27 was quite intense: $$225 million worth of Bitcoin spot ETFs were released in a single day, and Ethereum wasn't far behind with $48.54 million in withdrawals. Interestingly, this marks eight consecutive days of net outflows in both markets. It seems institutional investors are taking profits after that initial rally when these products were approved.
What catches my attention is the difference in how the market is reacting. Bitcoin experienced that big hit of $$225 million, but Ethereum has seen more consistent

Recently, a case that many had forgotten resurfaced on social media: the death of El Pirata de Culiacán. And it’s no coincidence that it’s trending again right now, after all the buzz generated by the confirmation of Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes’s death a few days ago. The influencer’s name is forever linked to that story of violence, but there are details that remain disturbing.
Juan Luis Lagunas Rosales, known as El Pirata de Culiacán, was a YouTuber who exploded on social media before turning 18. He started from the bottom, washing cars, but moved to Culiacán at 15 and began uploading videos

Hey, if you missed the BTS ticket in Goyang, don't worry. They will broadcast all three concerts live on Weverse, so you can watch them from Mexico without any problem. Just keep in mind, you'll need to wake up early: the shows are on April 9, 11, and 12, but here they will be streamed on April 8, 10, and 11 at 4 a.m. If you can't get up at that time, there are replays afterward. Access costs from 700 pesos for one day or 2,130 pesos for all three concerts in HD. With an ARMY membership, it's a bit cheaper. You need to create a Weverse account, but it's free. Is anyone else planning to watch t

I just saw what's happening with gold this week, and honestly, it's quite surprising. The precious metal plummeted below $4,350 in just a few hours, losing over one trillion dollars. Along with silver, the total losses approached two trillion dollars. Why is gold falling like this? That's what many traders are asking now.
Normally, when there are geopolitical tensions, gold rises. But this time, everything is the opposite. Despite the conflict in Iran and global instability, the metal remains under pressure. The main reason I see is the increase in US bond yields, which have risen around 4.40%

I just saw the numbers regarding what’s happening with Bad Bunny in Argentina, and it’s quite impressive. The guy arrived at River with three sold-out shows, and meanwhile, Bad Bunny’s fortune reached US$100 million. Less than a year ago, it was at US$50 million, so he doubled his wealth in less than 12 months. It’s a brutal acceleration.
What’s interesting is that this is no coincidence. The DTMF World Tour is the main machinery. In just 12 initial dates, it generated US$107 million. That’s almost US$11 million per night. Meanwhile, his streaming numbers are out of this world: over 100 millio

Recently, one of those events that Mexico City organizes every year took place, and honestly, it’s worth paying attention to the next edition. The Día del Amor y la Amistad Night Ride was on February 21, and the truth is it gathered a lot of people eager to explore the capital in a different way.
The route was quite comprehensive: it started from Fuente de Petróleos, went through Reforma, crossed Chapultepec, and reached the Centro Histórico with an extension toward Plaza Tlaxcoaque. About 20 kilometers of route between 7:00 PM and 11:00 PM. The best part is that you didn’t necessarily need to

Recently, someone asked me what ARB is, and honestly, it's simpler than it seems. Basically, ARB is the governance token of Arbitrum, a Layer 2 network built on Ethereum that solves one of the biggest problems of blockchain: extremely high fees and congestion.
To understand what ARB is, you first need to know what Arbitrum does. Ethereum is incredible, but it’s constantly saturated. Gas fees can be unbearable, especially during high activity periods. Arbitrum changed the game by processing transactions off the main chain and then confirming them on Ethereum. The result: almost instant transact

I just saw that many beginners ask about scalping, so I decided to share what I've learned about this strategy. Honestly, scalping isn't for everyone, but if you have discipline and quick thinking, it can be quite profitable.
Basically, scalping involves executing many trades throughout the day, aiming to capitalize on small price movements. We're talking about trades that last from a few seconds up to a couple of minutes at most. The goal is simple: make a small profit on each trade, but do it many times. It's like fishing with a net instead of waiting for the big catch.
What makes scalping d

I just read that Paolo Ardoino, the CEO of Tether, is quite confident that Bitcoin and gold will dominate over any other currency. Honestly, it's an interesting stance coming from someone in his position in the crypto industry.
I don't know, maybe he's right. Gold has been a safe haven for centuries, and Bitcoin—well, we know the history. But I wonder if Paolo Ardoino truly believes he will exclude all other options or if it's more of a strategic bet.
Anyway, when someone at that level speaks, there's always some weight behind it. What do you all think? Do you believe this?

A couple of years ago, I was looking for cryptocurrencies that would explode in 2024, and I came across several that really seemed to have something special. They’re not the typical trendy coins, but projects with real use cases and communities that are genuinely building something.
Let’s start with GALA. This token is behind the whole blockchain gaming wave that kept growing. When I started researching, I saw that the platform already had several games running and the developer community was quite active. The price was very accessible, so the growth potential was interesting if the blockchain

Recently, I realized something that many people overlook when entering the crypto world: most investors understand they can earn returns, but they don't really know how to compare different opportunities. This is where a concept comes into play that can completely change your perspective on investments.
What exactly is APY? The Annual Percentage Yield, or APY, is basically your tool to measure how much you'll actually earn with an investment over a year. But it's not just a simple rate. APY takes into account something powerful: compound interest. Imagine earning yields, and those yields gener

Recently, I started thinking about what a ton really is because it's a word we hear all the time, but many people don't know exactly what it refers to. The thing is, there isn't just one answer, and that can cause quite a bit of confusion, especially in international business.
Basically, what a ton is depends on where you are or what industry you're in. Americans work with the short ton, which is 2,000 pounds or about 907 kilograms. Sounds specific, right? The British and some Commonwealth countries use the long ton, which is a bit heavier: 2,240 pounds or approximately 1,016 kilograms. And th

I just read a rather provocative analysis by Max Keiser about what's really happening with Bitcoin these days. And honestly, it touches on a point that many prefer to ignore.
For those who don't know, Max Keiser is that guy who has been involved in the Bitcoin world for years, an advisor to El Salvador, and quite vocal on social media. Well, his main concern isn't the price — in fact, he's still quite optimistic there. He predicts that Bitcoin will continue its upward trend, that the price still has a lot of room to grow thanks to its scarcity and technical robustness.
But here’s where it gets

I just reviewed the MMT chart and noticed something interesting. The hammer candle that formed just before the bullish move is an almost textbook example of what you should be looking for in your analysis.
For those who don’t know, the hammer candle is that pattern that looks exactly like its name: a hammer. It has a small body at the top and a long tail downward. And the important thing is that it appears after the price has been falling sharply. What’s happening here is that sellers pushed the price down, but in the same move, buyers stepped in and pushed it back up. It’s basically a battle

So you want to mine cryptocurrencies with a PC from your home in 2024? Well, the reality is that Bitcoin is no longer viable on a regular machine, but there are other interesting options if you're willing to try. If trading volatility scares you but you want to ride the crypto wave, setting up a small home mining operation could be your move. That said, forget about cloud mining – almost all of those are scams.
The first step is choosing what to mine wisely. Dogecoin (DOGE) remains popular among home miners. Although it started as a meme, Elon Musk popularized it, and today it has a market cap

Recently, someone asked me what a long position is in trading, and I realized that many in the community still confuse these basic concepts. So I thought I’d share what I’ve learned about long and short positions because honestly, they are the foundation of everything in crypto trading.
Let’s start with the basics: a long is basically betting that the price will go up. You buy an asset now expecting to sell it at a higher price later. If you believe that token at $100 will reach $150, you just buy it and wait. The profit is the difference. Sounds easy, right? Because it really is.
But here’s

Recently, I started researching how much money actually exists in the world, and the answer is quite revealing.
The most surprising figure is that all the physical cash in circulation—banknotes and coins—amounts to just about $9 trillion. It seems like a lot, but when you compare it to other forms of money, it’s practically nothing.
Where there is significant volume is in bank accounts. Regular deposits total around $100 trillion, and if we add large deposits and institutional investments, we reach about $150 trillion. That’s money that exists, but not necessarily in your pocket.
Now here’s th
