Be very careful of who you listen too and make sure your not shopping for the answers you would like to hear. Remember those folks are there to sell ads or pump (Saylor). It's not all bad either, sometimes the have some ideas or indicators to follow up on your own about.

I've tracked all the big names like Wood, Pomp, Paul et al. They have all been equally as wrong or right.  Charts are a joke... I to listen to Dalio on the markets, he has an excellent grip on the history and why of things.

The news is a joke mostly and the government lies and manipulates data beyond recognition.

Watch actually news (numbers) and historical reactions from those real numbers.

getting investing news of media outlets would be akin to getting a wife off of onlyfans, or worse

After all that, by the numbers, we are in a recession after we are completely done exporting inflation.

The bitcoin users, and anybody who wants to, just run the bitcoin software that makes you a node, and you are part of the people managing and guding the bitcoin development, there is no leader or single human being that is in control, it is all collective stuff and that is why it is decentralized.
Bitcoin is an open source software and anybody can join in the decision making through running the full bitcoin software, those who do that are called nodes, and they alongside the miners communicate to validate transactions and reject the ones that are against the bitcoin protocol. So it goes without saying that there is no hidden or special team like in centralized services, anybody can be involved if they want to.
In centralized services one person or a small group can make a change, in bitcoin that is decentralized a change can't be made in that way or forced on the network, devs can implement additions to make the network better and more user-friendly like Lightning network implementation for example, but they can't make a change to the existing protocol because it won't be agreed upon by the entire community.

What I've read is that USDT is backed up by Fiat funds stored in the bank as a guarantee for every transaction

Usdt is a known stablecoin and minted as erc20 and live on ethereum network. But I believe there are usdt already on other chain too.

Here: https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/tether

Youll find all the contract address supported on different blockchain for tether.

There is no need to change contract address when tether is being minted. It will be fixed and not change. If you found a newly minted usdt with different contract address then thats a scam.

У ЧИА были отличные вводные и тот кто придумал такую гениальную схему с фармингом на жестких дисках, которые неумолимо летели в урну при активном и регулярном майнинге он без сомнений гений.
Другой вопрос что никто не мог подумать, что производители жестких, которые могли снять отличный гешефт при таком раскладе, так жидко обделаются. Прибыль сама шла в руки, надо было только грамотно толкать тему вперед, листить на биржи, шилить у биткоинифлюенсиров за долю малую, короче хоть как-то двигать проект, но видимо сверхприбыли производителям дисков не нужны, чай не производители видеокарт чтобы с протянутой рукой стоять.
Чиа вообще чем-то походит на другой проект раптореум. Там также кто-то двинул грамотно тему с процами АМД и неплохо подняли продажи, но также застряли не пойми где.

Надеюсь у Дурова хватит кэша и ума, чтобы поддерживать жизнь в проекте, пока с регуляторами и законами не станет попроще. Плюс у Дурова тут неплохая крыша, так что с майнингом ТОН проблем быть не должно, электростанции в сибири ждут не дождуться загрузки мощностей. Да и в целом Паша вроде толковый, возможно действительно нормальное что-то выйдет.   

People are waiting for it because it will most likely pump the price. There are a lot of regulations which doesn't allow some institutions ti buy btc directly (such as pension funds), but they can buy an ETF.
