Sometimes you just want to get in the zone. I mean fully locked in, with zero calls messing up your flow. And for most people, the first thing we do is either switch on airplane mode or tap Do Not Disturb. I used to do the same thing.

Bitcoin goes up, ETH dips, and Solana consolidates. All crypto coins go through these phases. Or at least the ones with real use cases do. But what do these phases actually mean? And why do coins move like that? It usually comes down to a key metric: trading volume. A crypto asset’s trading volume tells how much of it is bought and sold within a given time frame. In this case, it says a lot about its momentum.
WHAT IS: Decentralized Exchange (DEX)

💡TL;DR - A Decentralized Exchange (DEX) is a peer-to-peer marketplace that allows users to trade cryptocurrencies directly from their wallets without a central authority or intermediary.

Startup funding across Africa and the Middle East dropped again this week, with total disclosed deals sitting around $45 million, down from $80 million last week and far below the $525 million peak earlier in May. The slowdown isn’t surprising, but the pattern is clear: fewer rounds, more focus, and a shift toward startups solving grounded, regional problems. Still, even with the drop, this week had a few notable deals worth unpacking.

It can be quite frustrating when you need urgent information, but it's in a language you don’t understand.

Needless to say, payment solutions like mobile payments, real-time transactions, and digital wallets have radically simplified and accelerated the way money moves. We no longer have to wait days for transfers to be cleared or stand in queues at banks because money now moves as fast as a tweet (or... post).

How to Make Money on Freelance Sites Like Upwork, Freelancer, or Taskbucks (Without Spending a Dime)

1 week ago | techloy.com | David Adubiina

To begin with, it is important to understand that earning money requires resources. And while most of us don’t count our smartphones or that old junior school laptop as a big investment, they still are, in a sense.

It can be skills, time, effort, tools, or even your network.

1 week ago | techloy.com | David Adubiina

Normally, when a new Plan is created in Microsoft Teams, notifications are turned on by default if you're part of that Plan from the start. So, if you're working remotely or your team uses Teams to manage tasks, there's a good chance you're already set up to get alerts the moment something drops. But default doesn’t always mean it’s working. Maybe you joined the Plan later. Maybe your desktop notifications are off. Or maybe your phone just isn’t syncing properly with the rest of Teams.
Sui’s Cetus Decentralized Exchange Hacked as Bitcoin Hits New All-Time High

But in a space built on code, decentralization, and trustless systems, you'd think the tech would hold up better. The thing is, it’s not just that blockchains still get hacked—it’s that as they grow, they also seem to open up new holes.
