He told Pompliano:The private markets have solutions — blockchain technology is a great one. If you can timestamp things and make sure there’s an identifier for each…

As the global cryptocurrency mining industry pushes the absolute boundaries of computational physics, a highly critical, undeniable truth has rapidly emerged in 2026: raw processing power is no longer the sole determining factor of mining profitability. You can engineer the fastest microchip in existence, but if you cannot efficiently control the massive physical environment it operates in, that chip will inevitably fail. The undisputed, number one enemy of modern ASIC mining hardware is not network difficulty or volatile energy prices—it is extreme, highly destructive thermal output. For the everyday investor looking to purchase hashpower, a very serious operational question must…

Opinion by: Joshua Kim, CEO and founder of DonaFi.Traditional crowdfunding has always been pitched as a lifeline for creators. For non-fungible token (NFT) artists, most centralized models feel out of sync with reality.
