Recently, I’ve been analyzing something that many traders are overlooking: the connection between AI automation, the collapse of traditional software companies, and what’s happening in crypto. And trust me, it’s deeper than it seems.
Let’s start with the obvious. AI-powered automation tools are destroying the business models of conventional software. I’m not exaggerating; the numbers confirm it. Established companies reported revenue drops of over 15% just over a year ago. Why? Because customers are simply migrating to AI solutions that require less maintenance and cost less. It’s a huge shift

I just checked why cryptocurrencies are rising today, and the truth is that several factors are playing at the same time. Bitcoin is already touching $66.66K, Ethereum surpassed $2.06K, and XRP remains at $1.32. It’s no coincidence.
What had the biggest impact was the liquidation of over $323 million in leveraged positions in the last 24 hours. Most of them were shorts, so when prices started to rise, all those traders betting on a decline had to close their positions suddenly. This generated a strong squeeze effect that accelerated the upward movement.
But that only explains the initial push

I just noticed something interesting in Berkshire Hathaway's internal movements. It turns out that Ted Weschler, one of its key investment managers, is taking on a much more prominent role than many thought.
According to Greg Abel, Berkshire's executive, Weschler now controls approximately 6% of the company's investment assets. The interesting part is that this includes part of the portfolio previously managed by Todd Combs. It's not just a redistribution of responsibilities but a real expansion of his authority in comprehensive investment management.
What I find relevant is how this reflects

I recently saw everyone commenting that Bitcoin reached 100K, and I started thinking about something that probably many people don't question: what exactly is 100K? It sounds simple, but the answer has a pretty interesting history behind it.
The reality is that the 'K' you see everywhere represents 1,000 units. It's not something the crypto community invented; it comes from much earlier. Ancient Greeks used the letter kappa (χ) associated with the word khilioi, which literally means thousand. Over time, this abbreviation became popular in finance and commerce because, well, it's practical and

I've been observing for some time how more and more people are talking about Bitcoin as a store of value, and honestly, the concept isn't new; it just now makes sense in a digital context.
Let's think about this: historically, oro served as a store of value because it was scarce, durable, and accepted. What happened? Governments backed it, ancient civilizations accumulated it, and basically everyone trusted it. But here’s the interesting part: Bitcoin shares exactly those properties, only in a digital version.
Since ancient times, Egyptians, Romans, and others accumulated oro not just as curre

I just found some interesting options for motels with jacuzzis in Mexico City for February 14th, so I had to share. There are places like V Motel Boutique with modern suites and private terraces, as well as more themed options like Hotel Romamor. The good thing is they are spread out across central areas like Roma, Condesa, and Reforma, so it's not hard to find one near where you are.
If you're looking for something with more atmosphere, there's also Le Réve Love Hotel with very creative designs. What surprised me is that motels with jacuzzis in Mexico City offer everything from short stays to

Che, I recently started looking for different ways to celebrate love without it being so typical, you know? Because the 14th is fine, but the reality is that sometimes you don’t make it or the day just doesn’t work out. The important thing is the intention, nothing more.
I found some pretty cool places around Buenos Aires. There’s a bar in Chacarita called Yakinilo, like a Japanese izakaya, with a very intimate vibe and a playlist that sets the mood. They do omakase dinners with Japanese appetizers, sushi, and yakitori, costing around 80,000 per person and including wine or non-alcoholic drink

The Anses payment amounts for this month have just been updated with an adjustment of 2.88% according to January's inflation. Retirees and pensioners receiving the minimum benefit will also receive an extraordinary bonus, so the amounts are significantly higher than before.
Today, calendars are circulating with the payment dates for non-contributory pensions and other benefits. Everything depends on your DNI number: if it ends in 8 or 9, it's probably your turn today or tomorrow. Those receiving AUH, AUE, Prenatal, and Maternity also have their days assigned based on the last digit of their do

I just re-read about Picasso and it’s truly impressive how this guy managed to completely change the way we see art. He was born in Málaga in 1881, but his impact was global and endures to this day.
What fascinates me most is his ability to constantly reinvent himself. He didn’t stick to just one style, but went through the Blue Period, the Rose Period, and then revolutionized everything with Cubism alongside Braque. This was no coincidence, but the result of his relentless thirst for experimentation. Pablo Picasso’s artworks are not just beautiful canvases; they are documents of his artistic

After nearly 60 days without rain, relief finally arrived in Argentina's most affected agricultural areas. Over the past weekend, the Pampas region experienced significant rainfall that halted what seemed to be an imminent disaster for the crops.
The situation was critical. January was virtually dry across large productive areas, with high temperatures causing crops to suffer severe water stress. Southern Santa Fe, eastern and southeastern Córdoba, and the central-eastern and southeastern Buenos Aires were the most affected zones. Between February 14 and 16, the National Weather Service record

I just read about the color trends for this year, and honestly, Pantone has an interesting point. The Color of the Year 2026 is Cloud Dancer, a fluffy off-white with a hint of vanilla that looks like it’s taken straight from the inside of a marshmallow. Sounds strange, but when you see it, it really works.
Now, there’s debate in the industry. Stephen Westland, a professor of color science at Leeds, is quite straightforward: he says that the Color of the Year is mainly a trick to boost commercial interest. And he’s right that there are at least a dozen trend predictors choosing colors for 2026,

A while ago, I saw many people wondering what the real purpose of drinking warm water with salt on an empty stomach is. The truth is, the idea that it’s a miracle solution for hydration and electrolytes became quite popular, especially when they add Himalayan salt or a bit of lemon. But here’s the important part: science says otherwise.
First, you need to understand that sodium is necessary for the body. Electrolytes are crucial for cell function, nerve communication, and muscle activity. The issue is the amount. International organizations recommend about 2.3 grams of salt per day. The proble

I recently read about these prediction markets, and honestly, I find how they are evolving quite fascinating. Polymarket, in particular, has become quite relevant lately, especially when you see the news about Solana and how people are trying to predict where these assets are headed.
Basically, these markets work like this: people buy and sell shares based on future outcomes. It’s not just random speculation but reflects what the collective consensus thinks will happen. It’s like a voting with money, where the price of each share indicates the probability of something happening. Pretty clever,

If you have colon pain or suffer from irritable bowel syndrome, you probably already know how uncomfortable it can be. The truth is, there are several underlying causes, from Crohn's disease to colitis and infections, but the important thing is to know what to take to effectively reduce inflammation in the colon.
The first thing you need to understand is that diet plays a crucial role. Doctors often recommend dietary adjustments that really work. According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases in the United States, the key is to increase fiber, eliminate glute

I just looked up when sunrise was on Saturday, February 21, in Buenos Aires, and I was surprised by how precise all of this is. The morning twilight at 06:07, then the actual sunrise at 06:33. It seems like little time, but there's an interesting difference between when it starts to get light and when the sun actually rises. The exact time matters if you plan to go hiking early or something similar.
What caught my attention most was that on that day, the highest temperature reached around 28°C at 2:00 PM. Quite hot for February in Argentina. And then the sunset at 7:40 PM, with evening twiligh

Recently, I was thinking about something that probably all of us share without realizing it: when we need comfort, we look for a bowl of something hot and steaming. Everyone has their own version depending on where they come from. For some, it's chicken noodle soup; for others, pasta in broth like grandma used to make in Italy; for Asians, congees and slow-cooked rice porridges. In Eastern Europe, there's a strong tradition around beet soup, that sour borscht made with meat and vegetable broth that is almost synonymous with Ukrainian cuisine.
What's interesting is that these broths are not jus

I just checked the peso numbers and things look interesting. It’s been two days in a row gaining ground against the dollar, and today it closed at 17.15 pesos per dollar according to Banxico. The appreciation was modest but consistent, just 0.10 percent, but what catches my attention is that analysts say there’s still room for it to keep rising.
At bank counters, it’s already being sold for more, around 17.58 pesos. The curious thing is that the global dollar index fell 0.15 percent, and that’s reflected in several emerging currencies that also gained. The Hungarian forint, the South Korean wo

I can't believe that after 6 years without strikes at the start of the school year, now with Kicillof, this is happening again. Today, everything in Buenos Aires came to a halt, 5 million students without classes due to the teachers' strike. The unions rejected a salary increase they considered insufficient, so well, here we are again.
The interesting thing is that Suteba, which has always been an ally of Kicillof, also joined the national strike called by CTERA. Sonia Alesso, the general secretary, was very clear: a teacher with two positions loses more than 300,000 pesos a month, and if you

I recently discovered something interesting about a fruit you’ve probably seen at the market but never paid much attention to. It’s called the uchuva, that small orange ball wrapped in a kind of paper. Turns out, it’s not just an exotic-looking fruit, but it also has properties that make it quite special for health.
The thing is, in Colombia, where this fruit is grown year-round, researchers at the Industrial University of Santander conducted a comprehensive study on its nutritional value. What they found was impressive: a small portion of just 85 grams provides 35% of the daily recommended vi

I just checked the calendar and remembered that Carnival recently took place. The Carnival date for 2026 was February 16 and 17, Monday and Tuesday, so it was an extended four-day weekend if you include the Saturday and Sunday beforehand. Those two days are fixed public holidays by law, so anyone who worked on those days is entitled to double pay.
Honestly, Argentina has a strong tradition with this. Carnival dates back to the period before Lent, the 40 days leading up to Holy Week. The dates change each year because they depend on the Catholic liturgical calendar and lunar cycles. This year,
