In the world of cryptocurrencies, various major topics currently play a role. While Ripple, Binance and Coinbase are fighting for their legal classification with the SEC, Altcoins such as XRP, SOL and ADA are faced with the question of whether they should be regarded as securities.

In the middle of all of these discussions, however, there is also a new focus on the veteran of the crypto industry: Bitcoin. Under the radar of public interest, the so -called Lightning Network is gradually expanded and more and more financial giants suddenly want to launch Bitcoin Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs).

2. XRP, SOL & ADA-The big security question
Similar to Ripple, other old coins such as XRP, SOL and ADA have the regulatory questions in the room whether they should be classified as securities. The answers to this can have a significant impact on the course of these cryptocurrencies.

3. Why Bitcoin is
