On January 20th, a significant rise may come as President Donald TRUMP takes power in the presidency of the United States of America 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸. We saw it on the day he was declared the winner; all cryptocurrencies increased by up to 15, 20, and 30%. 📊📉

During his campaign, he promised that cryptocurrencies would operate in a more favorable environment, indicating that he would eliminate several regulations issued by the previous government.

Another relevant player in this context is Elon Musk, the billionaire and Trump ally, who has also shown himself to be an active defender of these assets.

The story of Karl Bushby is one of the most ambitious endurance journeys anyone has attempted. In 1998, he set out from Punta Arenas, Chile, driven by a simple bet: to walk back to England without using any form of transportation. What began as a challenge turned into a 27-year quest known as the Goliath Expedition, a continuous route around the planet powered solely by his steps.

He crossed the Darién Gap, one of the most unforgiving jungles in the world that very few traverse on foot, and later managed to walk on the shifting ice of the Bering Strait, one of the most iconic achievements of his journey.

Along the way, he faced legal issues in Russia, including a period of detention related to his visa. Even with delays, obstacles, and extreme environments, he continues to move toward his goal. His determination has transformed a wager into a historic attempt to complete a circumnavigation of the globe solely by walking.

"I am the daughter of Elon Musk but that doesn't mean I am a millionaire. I live in a shared house with other people, trying to make a living on my own merits."

The 21-year-old, with 14 siblings and a famous last name, decided to forge her own path: Vivian Jenna Wilson - daughter of Elon Musk - revealed that she does not live like a millionaire heiress, even though her father is "the richest man in the world."

Vivian shared that she has not received support from her father since 2022—the year she legally changed her name and gender and decided to cut ties to forge her own identity.
She lives in Los Angeles with three roommates to reduce expenses and honestly admits: "People assume I have a lot of money. I don't have hundreds of thousands of dollars."

Despite everything, she says she feels relatively fortunate to have a roof, food, friends, and some disposable income - although she does not aspire to her father's wealth.

Vivian made it clear that her goal is not to live under the famous last name, but to define herself. She refuses to be seen as "the daughter of," rejected the fortune that many take for granted, and asserted that she does not have that inheritance.
Although her father is globally known for his wealth and power, she prefers to build her life with her own hands - conscious modesty in a reality of inherited privileges.

Nicolás Maduro asked Donald Trump for guarantees to leave power during a call of less than 15 minutes on #21Nov, according to Reuters.

According to four sources consulted by the news agency, Maduro requested:

Total amnesty for himself and his family

Lifting of all his sanctions

- Closure of the case he faces before the International Criminal Court

- Annulment of measures against more than 100 regime officials accused of drug trafficking, corruption, and human rights violations.

He also demanded that Delcy Rodríguez, the regime's vice president, lead a

"transitional government" before a possible electoral process.

Trump rejected almost all the demands and gave Maduro a week to leave Venezuela with his family, with a safe conduct pass to the destination of his choice. That deadline expired on Friday, and according to two sources cited by Reuters, the immediate response from the US president was the announcement of the total closure of Venezuelan airspace.

The White House did not provide details of the call, but Trump briefly confirmed that the conversation took place. Meanwhile, the regime remains publicly silent, although Maduro appeared before supporters assuring "absolute loyalty" and promising that "they will never remove him," without referring to the failed negotiation revealed by Reuters.

In the novel Operation Thunder (Thunderball, 1961) by Ian Fleming, the Venezuelan bolívar appears as one of the most solid and reliable currencies in the world in the 1950s. Thanks to the support of the oil boom, Venezuela enjoyed a robust economy and its currency was seen as a safe haven, on par with Swiss francs.

For this reason, in the book, the criminal organization SPECTRE converts its illicit gains precisely to Swiss francs and Venezuelan bolívars. In the words of the text itself (my translation):
«…the total collected so far —not counting the last dividend yet to be distributed— is around one and a half million pounds sterling, which we have converted to Swiss francs and Venezuelan bolívars; we do this for prudence, because they continue to be the two strongest and most stable currencies on the planet».

Fleming did not choose the bolívar by chance. Part of the action takes place in the Caribbean, and Venezuela was then the most prosperous and strategic country in the area: a major oil producer, a gateway for capital in and out, and a regular scene for arms trafficking, smuggling, and intelligence operations.

Including the bolívar adds realism to the story: the great criminals and spies of the time really diversified their fortunes in the few currencies that resisted devaluations and inflation. Moreover, the detail reflects the weight that Venezuela had on the geopolitical and financial map of the 50s and early 60s, when it was one of the richest countries in Latin America and its currency circulated with authority throughout the hemisphere.

Colombia expressed its support for a plan that proposes the departure of Nicolás Maduro and the establishment of a transitional government responsible for organizing new elections. Foreign Minister Rosa Villavicencio stated that Maduro could accept the proposal if security is guaranteed and he does not face imprisonment.

President Gustavo Petro and his Brazilian counterpart, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, have demanded legitimate elections following the fraud reported in 2024. Villavicencio pointed out that a negotiated exit would be "the healthiest option," although it requires support from the opposition.

The regional scenario is tense following threats from Donald Trump to attack targets linked to drug trafficking and the U.S. military deployment in the Caribbean, which Colombia warns could generate a new Venezuelan exodus.

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 President Trump says he would love to replace Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell "right now."
That's a heavy statement.
If Powell's seat becomes uncertain, markets will quickly begin to price in policy volatility.
Bond yields, the USD, and risk assets could swing on this — not because of what Powell does, but because uncertainty in Federal Reserve leadership affects how traders model the next 12–18 months.
A comment like this doesn't remove Powell…
…but it does shake confidence.

🔴 Disaster in Tenerife: the worst air tragedy in history (583 dead)

📅 March 27, 1977. Two Boeing 747s —one from KLM and another from Pan Am— collided on the runway of Los Rodeos Airport (Tenerife North) under dense fog, in a tragic accident caused by communication errors and lack of visibility.

The KLM 747 began its takeoff without authorization while the Pan Am aircraft was still on the runway. The impact caused a massive explosion that claimed the lives of 583 people, making it the worst air disaster in history.

After the disaster, the aviation industry implemented profound changes in communication between pilots and controllers, giving rise to the universal use of standardized phrases in English and stricter ground control procedures.

🚨 THAT'S WHY THE EGYPTIANS LOVED THEM 🐈🐱

Cats were adored by the Egyptians, and modern science now explains why: the domestic cat is one of the most efficient and balanced creatures on the planet. Its body has a flexible spine capable of rotating 180°, reflexes faster than those of an athlete, and night vision up to six times better than that of humans.

Its heart works with almost athletic precision, and its brain shares surprising structural similarities with that of humans. Additionally, its ears detect frequencies that no other domestic mammal perceives.

But its perfection goes beyond the body: it combines independence with empathy, power with calm. For this reason, for many biologists, the cat is not just an evolutionary wonder, but a perfect balance between strength, agility, and intelligence.

💧 For years, it was believed that the wrinkles that appear on the fingers when they spend a lot of time in water were simply because the skin "absorbed" the water and swelled... but science discovered something much more interesting. 🧠

The wrinkling is not a coincidence; it is a reaction controlled by your nervous system! When you stay submerged for a long time, the nerves instruct the blood vessels in your fingers to constrict. This contraction causes the skin to fold, forming grooves and wrinkles.

🔬 It is a biological reflex that could have an evolutionary reason: to improve grip in wet conditions. In other words, your fingers adapt to hold objects better, as if activating a natural "non-slip mode." 🖐️

So the next time your hands look like raisins... remember: it’s not just moisture; it’s your body adapting to the environment! 🌍✨

Two thousand years ago, while the world was still overflowing with the darkness of the unknown, the Romans had already descended to the bottom of the sea, not through poetry or superstition, but through engineering. Without oxygen, without neoprene, without Google. Only with grass pipes, courage, and a fixed idea in your head: to tame nature.

They invented concrete that hardens underwater - a miracle that even modern reinforced concrete cannot match. With this secret, they erected ports at the bottom of the sea, like that of Caesarea, commissioned by Herod. A work so daring that even today it would make an engineer break out in a cold sweat.

The divers? Going down with air bells glued to their heads. Thirty meters below the surface, chest open, facing the pressure, the darkness, the unknown. They searched for shipwrecks, built foundations, and nailed Poseidon right on the head.

Ancient Rome was not just toga, senate, and circus bread. It was sweat, calculation, engineering, and a pact with the impossible. And that is what still stands two thousand years later: not the empire, but the concrete.

“The Nike logo cost the company only 35 dollars.” 👟💸

In 1971, Phil Knight, founder of Nike, needed a logo for his sneaker brand. He hired a design student named Carolyn Davidson. She created the famous “Swoosh,” inspired by the wing of the Greek goddess of victory.

The curious and almost outrageous thing is that they paid her only 35 dollars for a symbol that is now worth billions. Years later, when Nike became a giant, Knight gifted her shares of the company as a way to compensate her… but the anecdote had already been recorded: the most iconic logo in sports was born with a minimal payment. 🚀🔥

“Never underestimate what you do today… it can become an eternal icon.” ✨

A monkey named Caesar is revealed as the mastermind behind a laboratory escape in Bangkok. An animal research facility in Bangkok is shocked after a troop of macaques orchestrated a prison break, as if it were a movie, led by a clever primate named Caesar. He earned the name for being unusually intelligent and kind, a playful nod to the movie Planet of the Apes.

A surveillance video shows the shocking truth: for two weeks, Caesar had been studying the scientists. He listened to the doors opening and closing, counted the staff leaving, and memorized the only 30-minute window when there was no security personnel.

When the time came, he attacked. Caesar suddenly pounced on a researcher he had captivated for months, snatching the keys and freeing the others. In a matter of minutes, the cages opened and dozens of monkeys ran into the nearby jungle.

Since the escape, locals have photographed the troop wandering through markets and raiding fruit stands. Some appear to be mistreated, prompting wildlife activists to call for them to be set free instead of being dragged back to the lab. When asked about Caesar's name, the scientist nervously laughed: "It was supposed to be a funny reference to a movie... now I'm worried about the sequels".
