Nearly a year after five people died aboard the OceanGate "Titan" submersible while on a deep-sea voyage to the site of the Titanic, a billionaire has announced plans to go to the infamous wreck.

Entrepreneur and real estate investor Larry Connor said this week that he and Triton Submarines CEO Patrick Lahey are planning their own deep-sea expedition in a submersible.
Asked why, Connor told "Good Morning America" correspondent Will Reeve that the purpose of the voyage is to "demonstrate safety" of certified submersibles.

"If you look at submersibles that have been DNV certified ... there's never been an accident," he said. "The OceanGate vessel was not certified and never would have been."

While on a tour of the Titanic wreckage off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada, in June 2023, the OceanGate submersible imploded underwater, killing all five people on board, including OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush. Following a dayslong search, the remnants of the missing submersible were found on the ocean floor about 1,600 feet from the bow of the wrecked Titanic.

Experts called the carbon fiber construction of the Titan fundamentally flawed and a whistleblower who worked on a predecessor to the Titan vessel raised concerns about the inefficiency of the hull design.

Rush had previously defended the decision to manufacture the submersible with carbon fiber, saying he believed it would have a better strength-to-buoyancy ratio than titanium. The exact cause of the implosion remains under investigation by federal authorities.

Argentinian authorities are looking to work with officials in the Bitcoin-friendly El Salvador to enhance their adoption of the leading digital asset.

According to an official report from the Argentinian National Securities Commission (CNV), the agency’s president and vice president, Roberto Silva and Patricia Boedo, held a meeting with Juan Reyes, the president of El Salvador’s National Digital Assets Commission (CNAD), last week to discuss the Central American country’s experience in adopting Bitcoin.

Argentina Taps El Salvador for BTC Adoption Strategy

The report revealed that Silva and Boedo talked about the growing use of cryptocurrencies in global economies, exchanging concepts with Reyes about El Salvador’s journey so far.

“El Salvador has emerged as one of the leading countries, not only in the use of bitcoin, but has also stood out in the world of crypto assets…We want to strengthen ties with the Republic of El Salvador and therefore, we are going to explore the possibility of signing collaboration agreements with them, said Silva.

Recall that El Salvador was the first country to recognize Bitcoin as legal tender in 2021. Over the years, the country has unveiled several Bitcoin-related projects, including Bitcoin bonds, volcano-powered Bitcoin mining, and a citizenship-by-Bitcoin-investment program, and embraced a strategy that allows it to accumulate and hold the asset. As of mid-May, the country had mined 474 BTC using volcanic energy and held over 5,750 BTC.

El Salvador created the CNAD specifically for overseeing and enhancing its crypto operations and Argentina is looking to follow the same path.

As of May 27, Former President Donald Trump’s crypto portfolio has surpassed $10 million.

Former U.S. President and Republican frontrunner Donald Trump’s crypto investments have been paying off. His on-chain crypto holdings have exceeded the $10 million mark. The surge was primarily driven by a rise in the value of the MAGA (TRUMP) meme coin.

According to data from ArkhamIntel, Trump’s holdings in $TRUMP alone are valued at $7.3 million, making up most of his crypto investments. Trump also holds over 463 Ethereum (ETH), currently valued at $1.8 million. Trump does not publicly own any Bitcoin (BTC).

The price of the TRUMP coin, a political meme coin based on Solana, has increased over 60% in the last seven days and currently rests at $12.40.

Trump and crypto
Trump has not shied away from expressing a pro-crypto sentiment during his most recent campaign trail. Historically, Trump has had a mixed stance on cryptocurrency. In 2019, he expressed skepticism about Bitcoin, calling it “highly volatile.”

However, during this election cycle, Trump said he would embrace crypto in his next presidential term. “Crypto is moving out of the U.S. because of hostility toward it. I don’t want that. If we are going to embrace it, we will have to let them be here,” he said in a recent rally.

On May 21, The Trump campaign introduced a fundraising page that accepts donations in any cryptocurrency available on the Coinbase platform.

Most recently, on on May 26, Trump announced his intention to support the appeal of Ross Ulbricht’s conviction. Ulbricht founded the infamous online marketplace, Silk Road, which was dismantled in 2013.

The impact of this support will cause massive adoption of cryptocurrency

Former United States President Donald Trump claims he is "very open minded" to "all things related to this new and burgeoning industry."

The United States must not settle for anything but top place in the cryptocurrency industry, according to former U.S. President Donald Trump.

“Our country must be the leader in the field, there is no second place,” Trump declared in a May 25 post on Truth Social — a social media platform owned by Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG).

“I am very positive and open minded to cryptocurrency companies, and all things related to this new and burgeoning industry,” he claimed, before taking aim at the current president, Joe Biden, whom he is up against in the 2024 presidential race, with the US election day scheduled on November 4.

"CROOKED JOE BIDEN, ON THE OTHER HAND, THE WORST PRESIDENT IN THE HISTORY OF OUR COUNTRY, WANTS IT TO DIE A SLOW AND PAINFUL DEATH. THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN WITH ME!"

His comments were made ahead of his scheduled speech at the Libertarian Party’s National Convention in Washington on the same day.

Trump’s recent positive attitude towards crypto has raised expectations among the crypto industry of his potential victory.

According to Polymarket, a New York-based crypto prediction platform, Trump has a 56% chance of winning the election, while current President Joe Biden holds a 38% chance.

This comes just after Trump announced his presidential campaign would accept cryptocurrency donations.

On May 21, the Trump 2024 campaign said it had launched a fundraising page for eligible people to donate in crypto using the Coinbase Commerce product.

Many people who have not travelled to East will doubt what kalu said. Many contents you see in Nigeria are manufactured in Nigeria but they will write it made in china and package it very well... I don't doubt kalu at all because I know what easterners are capable of doing.
If kalu is saying that solar lightings are produced in ABA, believe him because the solar panel you may be using in Nigeria that has the label of made in china, may have been manufactured at the backyard of Nnewi but repackaged to made in china..

Very bad

Lol

Andrey Stoychev, Head of Prime Brokerage at Nexo, has predicted that Ethereum price could hit $10k if it succeeds in getting the spot Ethereum Exchange Traded Funds (ETF) approved by the United States’ Securities and Exchange Commission ( SEC).

According to CoinTelegraph, Stoychev said the US SEC approval of Ethereum spot ETF could take months, but it might become the main catalyst catapulting the price of the second largest cryptocurrency to $10k.

The prediction follows an impressive bullish run by Ethereum which saw its price surge to two-month high of $3700, signifying a 21% rise in the last 24 hours.

The recent Ether rally is driven by reports that the US SEC has a made a U-turn on its stance on spot Ethereum ETF approval asking ETF exchanges to update their 19b-4 filings, according to reports.

Stoychev explained that despite the timeline for a potential spot bitcoin ETF approval still being difficult to predict, the recent moves by the US SEC are very positive and spells good for the crypto industry.
