🌱 Bitcoin Goes Green & BlackRock's ETF Breaks Records 🚀

Important updates from this week

In partnership with

Hey crypto trailblazer, 👋

Two massive developments are reshaping the crypto landscape this week - Bitcoin's surprising green revolution and BlackRock's ETF crushing it with record inflows.

These aren't just headlines - they could fundamentally change how institutions and environmental investors view crypto. Let’s dive in.

🌿 Bitcoin Now 52% Powered by Sustainable Energy

The latest Cambridge University study has dropped a bombshell - 52.4% of Bitcoin mining now runs on zero-emission sustainable energy sources. This isn't just a minor improvement - it's a complete narrative flip for an industry long criticized for its environmental impact.

Breaking down the numbers: 42.6% comes from renewables like wind and hydropower, while nuclear energy contributes another 9.8%. Bitcoin mining is actively contributing to grid stability too, with miners curtailing 888 GWh of electrical load in 2023 to assist during peak demand periods.

What this means for investors: Bitcoin is positioning itself ahead of many traditional industries in sustainable practices, potentially unlocking trillions in ESG investment funds that previously avoided crypto. This green milestone could be the catalyst that brings environmentally conscious institutional investors into the market.

Apple just secretly added Starlink satellite support to iPhones through iOS 18.3.

One of the biggest potential winners? Mode Mobile.

Mode’s EarnPhone already reaches +45M users that have earned over $325M, and that’s before global satellite coverage. With SpaceX eliminating "dead zones" worldwide, Mode's earning technology can now reach billions more.

Mode is now gearing up for a possible Nasdaq listing (ticker: MODE) but you can still invest in their pre-IPO offering at $0.30/share before their share price changes.

💰 BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF Scores $970M Single-Day Inflow

BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) is on an absolute tear, buying a staggering $970 million worth of Bitcoin on April 28th alone. This marks IBIT's second-largest day of inflows on record, trailing only the massive $1.12 billion purchase made back on November 7, 2024.

The institutional appetite is undeniable: U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw total net inflows of over $590 million that day, with IBIT alone accounting for the lion's share while some competitors experienced outflows. The numbers are eye-watering: BlackRock's IBIT now manages over $54 billion in assets, controlling 51% of the total U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF market share and ranking as the 33rd largest ETF globally across all categories.

Bitcoin now hovers around $95,000 and may reclaim $100K very soon.
