Bitcoin Solaris Presale Gains Strong Momentum Ahead of Upcoming Launch
Designed to address long-standing limitations in scalability, speed, and accessibility, Bitcoin Solaris combines a Proof-of-Work base layer with a Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) execution layer, enabling over 10,000 transactions per second (TPS), sub-2-second finality, and dramatically lower energy consumption. According to the project team, Bitcoin Solaris operates with 99.95% less energy usage than traditional mining-based blockchains.
Why Everyone Is Now Talking About BTC-S
From influencer videos to Telegram channels, the buzz around Bitcoin Solaris is not just hype. It is driven by fundamentals and real innovation. Even major voices in the space are weighing in.
A detailed review by Crypto Vlog breaks down why this project stands out from the sea of recycled layer-1s and copycat tokens. From smart contract flexibility to cross-chain compatibility, BTC-S is getting attention for being bold and original.
Early Bitcoin Changed Lives, BTC-S Is the Second Chance
Presale Momentum: Fastest Rise in the Market?
Investors are rushing in. And for good reason. The Bitcoin Solaris presale is being called one of the shortest and most explosive in crypto history.
That means a 150 percent return is practically baked in for early investors. For receiving your BTC-S tokens securely on launch day, Trust Wallet and Metamask are the preferred options.
And this isn't just FOMO. BTC-S has passed major due diligence. It's already audited by Cyberscope and Freshcoins. Community discussions are alive on Telegram and X, where crypto veterans and curious newcomers alike are lining up for early access.
A Future Built on Speed, Security, and Smart Contracts
Bitcoin Solaris was engineered to solve what Bitcoin cannot. High fees, slow confirmation times, and limited programmability are outdated in the Web3 world. BTC-S fixes that with:
And all of this will soon be in the palm of your hand. Mining BTC-S will be possible through the upcoming Solaris Nova app, which turns your phone into a revenue stream. Curious about earnings? Use the profit calculator to see daily estimates based on your phone type.
What's Next: Roadmap Highlights
While the presale hype is real, Bitcoin Solaris is building for the long game. According to the public roadmap, the next milestones include:
This isn't a roadmap filled with vague promises. Every phase is tied to deliverables, integrations, and real-world applications. BTC-S is setting up a full ecosystem that doesn't just aim for the moon; it builds the launchpad first.
Conclusion: One of the Smartest Bets of the Year?
Let's be clear. Bitcoin Solaris is not just another altcoin. It's a second chance at generational wealth, powered by scalable tech, early incentives, and unmatched mobile mining accessibility. As BTC-S gears up for launch, the only question left is who acted early enough to catch the 150 percent wave before it's gone.

These Stylish Bluetooth Headphones With Unbelievable Battery Life Are Still Cheaper Than Ever After Prime Day
Amazon Prime Day discount still available: Marshall's Major V headphones are worth it even at full price, but right now they're at an all-time low price of $100 -- or around 38% off. Move quickly though, because with Prime Day done and dusted, who knows how long this price will stick around. I might not be a true battle-tested headphone expert like CNET's David Carnoy, but I still love headphones and I'm confident in what I like about them. My most recent pickup, the Marshall Major V on-ear Bluetooth headphones, quickly became a pair that I adore. What is Marshall? Marshall is a British audio hardware company that got its start back in the early '60s and became renowned for producing amps and speakers for live music performances. More recently, it's made a mark in consumer audio, producing home speakers with a distinctly rock 'n' roll aesthetic -- think rough-patterned black leather materials, gold trim and prominent physical buttons. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. The brand has also brought its signature sound and style to headphones. Recently, I picked up the Major V, Marshall's latest iteration of its on-ear Bluetooth model (that's V as in 5), and I could hardly love them more. Marshall boasts that these headphones can last up to 100 hours on one charge, an almost ludicrous number that has largely held up as I've used them. The audio quality, while not a patch on the heavier hitters in the Bluetooth market, is excellent for its price, with strong bass and clean high notes. Vocals can sometimes come off a little shabby at first blush, but I find you get used to it real quick. The connectivity performance has also really impressed me. For such a cheap pair of headphones, the Major V easily maintain connections to at least two devices at a time and can switch between them almost seamlessly. That's not something I've found to be the case for a lot of the affordable Bluetooth headphones I've tried in the past. It's a strong contender overall in the budget Bluetooth headphones space. Why does this deal matter? I was able to scoop up the Marshall Major V for $100, the lowest their price has gone since they debuted last year. For that price, it's basically a steal. For the amount of blissful use I've gotten out of them so far -- listening to music, watching movies or getting through my audiobooks -- it's been more than worth the price of admission. For now, only the standard black Major Vs are on sale. They also come in brown, cream and midnight blue varieties, but those will cost you closer to full retail price for now. They usually retail for around $160, making their current price a 38% discount. While I was able to get this deal well in advance of Prime Day, there's no telling how long it'll stick around now that the event is over, so get a move on if you're interested in picking a pair up.

Stock market today: Nasdaq eyes record close as investors shake off tariff threats, bitcoin touches latest record
US stocks rose modestly on Monday as Wall Street braced for a turbulent week, as renewed trade tensions injected uncertainty ahead of a key inflation report and the first wave of second quarter earnings. The S&P 500 (^GSPC) and Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) drifted about 0.2% higher, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) added around 0.4%. Meanwhile, bitcoin (BTC-USD) spiked above $123,000 for the first time as investors greeted the open of Congress's "Crypto Week," but the asset dropped back near $120,000 later in the day. Stocks with crypto ties also rallied as the House of Representatives weighs three key pieces of crypto-related legislation. Earlier in the day, investors showed a diminished appetite for risk after President Trump said Saturday that the US will impose 30% tariffs on goods from the EU and Mexico from Aug. 1. The increased pressure on key US trading partners is testing the market's previous resilience in the face of escalating tariff tensions. Faith in the idea that Trump will back off from threatened hikes helped lift stocks to all-time highs last week. Officials from the EU and Mexico are pushing to continue negotiations with the US in hopes of securing a lower rate via a new deal. The hiked tariffs as they stand are seen as likely to remake global trade relations and add to existing inflationary pressures. Read more: The latest on Trump's tariffs That adds uncertainty ahead of consumer inflation data scheduled for release this week. Investors are looking to the June CPI report for signs of how earlier rounds of tariffs are impacting prices across the US economy. The reading will feed into expectations for the Fed's decision on interest rates due in just over two weeks. Meanwhile, Trump ratcheted up tensions with Russia over the war in Ukraine on Monday, threatening to impose "secondary" tariffs of up to 100% on the country. He also said the US would provide weapons to Ukraine. Earnings season kicks into swing this week, with all the major US banks due to report results starting on Tuesday. Investors are showing interest in IPO and M&A markets, while Wells Fargo (WFC) reports after being freed from a decade of stringent regulatory restrictions. June's Consumer Price Index (CPI) is expected to show prices rose at a faster clip compared to May. The report, due Tuesday at 8:30 a.m. ET, comes as investors closely monitor whether President Trump's tariffs are starting to filter through to what consumers pay, even as inflation data has so far remained more resilient than expected. According to Bloomberg data, headline CPI is expected to have increased 2.6% year over year in June, up from a 2.4% rise in May. On a monthly basis, prices are forecast to climb 0.3%, marking an acceleration from the 0.1% gain the prior month. On a "core" basis, which strips out volatile food and energy prices, the annual inflation rate for June is expected to come in at 2.9%, a slight pickup from May's 2.8%. Core prices are also projected to climb 0.3% month over month, outpacing the previous 0.1% rise seen in May. In May, falling car and apparel prices, categories seen as early indicators of tariff impacts, contributed to a cooler-than-expected core CPI reading. But economists expect those trends to reverse in June, potentially pushing core inflation higher. The report lands amid renewed trade tensions between the US and other countries. President Trump has unveiled new letters to over 20 countries outlining tariffs ranging from 20% to 50%, including a 35% duty on Canadian goods and 30% tariffs on imports from Mexico and the European Union. He has also floated sweeping 15% to 20% tariffs on most trading partners. The EU, in response, is scrambling to negotiate while preparing potential countermeasures. Read more here. The stock market continues to shake off President Trump's latest tariff threats. New letters from Trump over the weekend threatened 30% duties on goods from Mexico and the European Union. On Monday, he threatened 100% tariffs on Russia. Still, the S&P 500 (^GSPC) rose about 0.2% on Monday. Sure, perhaps part of this is the so-called TACO trade, a calling card for investors to stay invested because "Trump always chickens out" on his highest tariff threats. But Morgan Stanley chief investment officer Mike Wilson points out there's likely something more mathematical at play. The recent tariff announcements have said nothing about China, and as our Chart of the Day from Wilson shows, that's what matters to the widest array of industries. Wilson segmented various industries into different subsectors of exposure to tariffs. Seven categories, including technology and semiconductors, have "more material risk," meaning that import exposure in that group from China is more than 15% of the global total of imports. In other words, tariffs on China would hurt sectors like the tech sector more than tariffs on nearly any other country listed in Wilson's work. "The more material trade-elated risk for equity indices would be if tariff rates on China were to increase materially from here," Wilson wrote. "China is significant not only because of the number of industries with tariff cost exposure, but also because of the market cap weighting of those industries, in aggregate."

"Meta Superintelligence Labs will have industry-leading levels of compute and by far the greatest compute per researcher," Zuckerberg wrote in a post on Threads. The news followed several high-profile AI hires at Meta as the tech company looks to spend billions to advance its AI efforts and break free of its dependence on third-party companies. Yahoo Finance's Daniel Howley reports: Read more here. Procter & Gamble (PG) stock slipped about 2% on Monday after Evercore ISI analysts downgraded shares to In Line from Outperform, citing retail channel shifts and macro uncertainty. The analysts noted that P&G's sales growth could become capped as more consumers purchase household and personal care (HPC) items online with Amazon (AMZN) instead of at retailers like Walmart (WMT) and Costco (COST). "Our concern ... increasingly lies in adverse shifts in retail channels that challenge Procter's growth potential," the analysts wrote. "In the U.S., Amazon now accounts for 50% of all HPC growth, which creates a 2-point growth gap or one point globally relative to Procter's core retailers, mainly Walmart and Costco, where the firm remains competitively advantaged given scale and product superiority. A parallel shift to pure online in China compounds macro pressures and could delay a turnaround, in our view." Procter & Gamble's market share at Amazon is about one-third its share at Costco and Walmart, the analysts noted. They cut their price target on P&G stock to $170 from $190. Yahoo Finance's Jennifer Schonberger reports: Read more here. US stocks were little changed after President Trump floated secondary tariffs of up to 100% on Russia if the country does not make progress toward ending its war with Ukraine in 50 days. The S&P 500 (^GSPC) and Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) were roughly flat Monday afternoon, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) added about 0.2%. Per the FT: The tariffs Trump threatened would theoretically apply to the imports of countries that trade with Russia. Direct US trade with Russia has plummeted amid the war, but Russia still trades with many countries in Europe and Asia — most notably China. Yahoo Finance's Pras Subramanian reports: Read more here. Another Wall Street firm no longer sees the S&P 500 declining to finish the year. In a note to clients on Sunday, RBC Capital Markets boosted its year-end S&P 500 target to 6,250 from a prior target of 5,730. As RBC Capital Markets' Lori Calvasina noted, the adjustment comes amid the market's more than 25% bounce back from the April lows and essentially moves their target back to where it sat in mid-March before the bulk of the tariff turmoil began. "We feel neutral on the outlook for stocks in the 2nd half of 2025, and are mindful that our new price target is essentially in line with recent levels," Calvasina wrote. "We expect choppy conditions in the back half of the year, and swings in both directions." Calvasina noted that it's likely still "too early to stop worrying about tariff impacts" on corporate earnings and also highlighted a slowdown in recent momentum as reasons she remains cautious that the next major move for the benchmark index is higher. While Calvasina is at least the ninth strategist tracked by Yahoo Finance to recently raise their S&P 500 target from their April downward revision, she's also part of a growing list of those who aren't pounding the table for the rally to continue. Yardeni Research president Ed Yardeni, who maintains a 6,500 year-end target for the S&P 500, wrote in a note to clients on Sunday that the recent V-shape recovery in stocks could soon look more like a "square-root shaped pattern" where the rapid rise higher stalls out.

Tariffs are ruining Volvo's plans to sell new EVs in the US.
Tariffs are ruining Volvo's plans to sell new EVs in the US. The Swedish automaker said it will take a one-off, non-cash impairment charge of 11.4 billion Swedish kronor ($1.19 billion) in the second quarter related to two plug-in models: the EX90 and ES90. That means Volvo is basically reducing the value of the EVs on its balance sheet. The reason is because Donald Trump's tariffs are making it impossible for Volvo to make a profit on these models. The EX60 is still on track, apparently.
