Michael Saylor offers critical piece of advice as BTC price struggles
Bitcoin enthusiasts in Prague have recently had a chance to get a crucial piece of BTC advice from Michael Saylor, MicroStrategy's former CEO, during his recent appearance at the BTC Prague event as a speaker. The topic of the billionaire's speech was "21 rules of Bitcoin," apart from other important theses that Saylor wanted his audience to remember, such as "You will never be done learning about Bitcoin" or "Bitcoin is for everyone." In Saylor's opinion, everyone who is holding Bitcoin should never sell it. "You do not sell your Bitcoin. What do I mean? Bitcoin is energy. Bitcoin is life. Don't squander your life. Conserve your energy…Don't let the fire go out. When the fire is what keeps your family from freezing, do not let the fire go. Don't throw yourself off a cliff," he stated.

Cardano (ADA) soars 162% despite $435 million market downturn
Data provided by CoinMarketCap demonstrates that yesterday, Cardano's trading volume spiked by 162%, reaching $574.9 million. This spike is noteworthy, particularly in light of the overall market downturn, which has resulted in $435 million in crypto liquidations. There could be a number of causes for the spike in ADA trading volume, but one possibility is that investor positioning is at play. Higher volatility frequently leads to higher trading volume as a result of traders buying and selling in large quantities. According to reports, Cardano has recently garnered popularity among institutional investors, which may also explain the increase in trading volumes. Currently, ADA is trading at $0.384, up 3.18% over the past 24 hours, per CoinMarketCap.
