🪙 Pavel Durov, the founder and CEO of Telegram, says Bitcoin could someday reach $1,000,000. He adds that it’s his Bitcoin holdings — not Telegram’s revenue — that bankrolls his luxurious lifestyle 💸 Durov recalls buying his first BTC when the price was around $750. I truly believe in this. This is how money should work — free and independent. No one can seize your Bitcoin, and no one can silence you for political reasons. It’s the ultimate form of exchange. And since we’re talking Bitcoin, this idea extends to cryptocurrencies as a whole. In fact, it’s my Bitcoin investments that have allowed me to maintain my lifestyle. Some people assume that if I stay in luxury spots or travel privately, it’s funded by Telegram, but that’s not true — Telegram actually costs me money. Bitcoin has helped me stay financially independent. Watch the podcast. AFRO CRYPTO

September closed with Bitcoin up about 5.16% and Ethereum down roughly 5.71%, per CoinGlass. Still, both finished the month in the red. ➡ Bitcoin cooled a bit as chatter about a possible U.S. government shutdown intensified toward month-end. ➡ Ethereum spent most of September moving in a narrow range, still trying to rebound from earlier losses. ➡ Analysts say both assets are in a wait-and-see mode—the next move could be one of the biggest in this cycle. That lull could be short-lived. History shows that after a period of consolidation, breakouts can be substantial. 🐴 Powered by White Horse AFRO CRYPTO
