In the midst of the buzz surrounding artificial intelligence (AI), a developer has crafted a fresh chat platform that harnesses the power of Openai’s Chatgpt. However, this creation sets itself apart by being trained on a myriad of resources specifically focused on Bitcoin and its enigmatic founder, Satoshi Nakamoto. Meet the AI Chatbot ‘Talk2Satoshi’ On May 31, bitcoin enthusiast and author Pierre Corbin unveiled a chatbot platform infused with the essence of Bitcoin. This unique platform, akin to Openai’s Chatgpt, functions as a conversational program capable of responding to queries and engaging in dialogue with users. What sets talk2satoshi.com apart is that Corbin, with the assistance of Hugo Ferrer , the co-creator, fed the chat program with a diverse array of sources, including Satoshi Nakamoto’s emails and forum posts, Saifedean Ammous’ 2018 book “The Bitcoin Standard,” and Corbin’s own work, “The Great Reset and the Rise of Bitcoin.” Our news team posed a series of inqu

Although the U.S. has averted defaulting on its debt obligations, Fitch Ratings still has concerns about the country’s ability to repay its debt. As a result, the credit rating agency has placed the U.S. “AAA” rating on negative watch, emphasizing that recent events have lowered “confidence in governance on fiscal and debt matters.” Fitch Ratings Still Has Concerns About the US Fitch Ratings, one of the three largest credit rating agencies in the U.S., announced on Friday that the United States’ “AAA” credit rating remains on “negative watch” despite the recent debt limit agreement reached in Congress.

His son, crypto enthusiast Spencer Schiff, warned users in a tweet not to follow the link posted by the unknown attackers trying to lure victims using his father’s name. ‘Dad Almost Certainly Hacked,’ Son Tweets After Peter Schiff Launches $GOLD Token on Twitter Hackers obviously took control of economist Peter Schiff’s Twitter account to promote the supposed launch of a “groundbreaking cryptocurrency token” called $GOLD. A series of tweets posted in the space of a few hours suggested that the digital asset represents tokenized gold and is “a complete and utter gamechanger for gold-backed DeFi” that will “empower the #Web3 community.” “Claim your $GOLD,” as it is “extremely close to selling out,” the perpetrators of the apparent scam urged followers of Schiff, who is a well-known gold proponent but also a vocal critic of cryptocurrencies like bitcoi

Bitcoin started the weekend in the red, as markets continued to digest the latest nonfarm payrolls in the United States. Despite payrolls coming in better than expected, the unemployment rate also rose, hitting 3.7%, which is its highest point since last October. Bitcoin Bitcoin ( BTC ) was mostly consolidating to start the weekend, as traders continued to digest the latest U.S. nonfarm payrolls data.

For many, a recent upward crossover of the 10-day (red) and 25-day (blue) moving averages was a signal that bullish momentum was set to return. However, yesterday’s economic data has added more questions than provided answers, as to what the Federal Reserve could do in its upcoming meeting. A ceiling at $27,300 remains a key hurdle for bulls to overcome, and should this occur, the chances o

Lord Jim O’Neill, the British economist credited with coining the acronym BRIC, has explained that the U.S. dollar will lose its dominant status. He expects the Chinese yuan and possibly the Indian rupee to become “much more important currencies for the world.” Lord Jim O’Neill on USD Losing Its Dominant Status British economist Lord Jim O’Neill discussed de-dollarization and the potential for a proposed common BRICS currency or the Chinese yuan to replace the U.S. dollar as the world’s reserve currency in a couple of interviews this week. O’Neill, a former Goldman Sachs economist, coined the acronym BRIC over 20 years ago to describe the economic potential of Brazil, Russia, India, and China.
