Atomic Habits for Crypto Investors: Tiny Decisions, Big Results
Most people think crypto success comes from one big bet, the perfect entry, or timing the next bull run. In reality, it’s the small, boring habits you repeat every week that decide whether you build lasting wealth or stay stuck in boom‑and‑bust cycles.
If you can automate tiny behaviours – like a regular DCA, a simple review routine, and cl...
Bitcoin just had its ugliest flush since the FTX era — but under the surface, the story is more complex than pure panic. Short‑term holders are capitulating as economic worries bite, while spot Bitcoin ETFs bleed capital and sentiment hits new lows.
At the same time, network difficulty has just seen its biggest drop since China’s 2021 mining ban, easing pressure on miners but highlighting how tough this phase...
When the crypto market feels terrible and your portfolio is deep in the red, your next move shouldn’t be panic—it should be a plan. In my latest piece, I break down how long‑term investors can survive drawdowns without blowing up their future: zooming out, looking after your headspace, cleaning up your portfolio and setting rules so the next crash feels uncomfortable, not existential.

60 second crypto news – by orangebrickroad.com.au
Bitcoin has just seen one of its sharpest pullbacks since breaking above its old cycle highs, with a 10 to 11 percent weekend drop knocking price back into the high‑seventy‑thousand zone and briefly under key support.
In just a few days, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw over a billion dollars in net outflows, raising the question: is this the start of a new...
Professional market makers don’t treat an exchange as “just a place to trade” – they treat it as a critical tech partner that can make or break their strategy. They look past headline liquidity and dig into execution quality, depth, spreads in volatility, API stability, latency, fees, margin rules, and risk controls before wiring serious capital.
If the pros are this picky about depth, latency, security,...
“From Chaos to Clarity: How UpTrade Alpha Cuts Through the Crypto Noise”
Most Aussies learn about crypto through exchanges – until something goes wrong.
Frozen accounts, blocked bank transfers, no human support, and high stress the minute you move serious money.
That’s why more serious investors are shifting to crypto brokerage. In my new chat with Jeff Zylstra, CEO of UpTrade, we break down what...
Orange Brick Road Podcast — New Episode Out Now!
In this episode, I sit down with Jeff Zylstra, Founder and CEO of UpTrade Crypto Brokerage, to unpack the what, who, and why of using a crypto brokerage in today’s fast-moving market.
We dive into:
What exactly a crypto brokerage does (and how it differs from exchanges)
Who benefits most from brokerage services
Why trust and education matter mor...
Why Leverage Keeps Blowing Up Crypto Traders (And What To Do Instead)
“Leverage Just Snapped: Why the Latest Flush Wasn’t ‘News’ – It Was Liquidations”
Leverage and derivatives have been around since ancient Greece, but they’re still blowing up modern portfolios. What started as a simple way to hedge has turned into a casino where over‑leveraged traders get liquidated so the big players can walk...
“From Bricks to Blockchain: How RWAs Let You Own Property from Your Wallet”
Real‑world assets are finally going on‑chain – and it’s not just Wall St. playing. Platforms like Blocksquare.io and Oceanpoint.fi are taking real estate, slicing it into digital shares, and letting everyday investors get exposure from their crypto wallet instead of needing a deposit and a bank loan. RWAs mean your portfolio can mix B...
Binance founder CZ is back in the headlines after calling for a Bitcoin “supercycle” and arguing this run could break the old four‑year boom‑and‑bust model as banks, asset managers, and even governments lean further into crypto. At the same time, gold and silver have already punched into new all‑time highs, showing how much capital is rotating into hard assets while Bitcoin is still lagging those moves, which som...
Bitcoin’s 2026 outlook is turning into a high‑stakes institutional gamble, not a guaranteed moonshot. Major banks, analysts, and crypto heavyweights now have targets scattered between 75k and 250k, all depending on how strong ETF and institutional demand really is.
Some big names have already cut their forecasts, while others are still calling for six‑figure prices if Bitcoin ETFs keep pulling in tens o...
Ethereum just hit record activity, is fighting an “institutional midlife crisis”, and is being hammered by a new wave of address‑poisoning scams—at the same time.
In this episode/newsletter, Orange Brick Road breaks down:
Why the Ethereum Foundation is suddenly marketing hard to banks and asset managers
How rival chains like Solana and BNB are challenging its institutional story
Ho...
Real‑world assets (RWAs) are one of the biggest narratives building into 2026, as more traditional assets like gold, stocks, bonds, and real estate are being brought on‑chain. Tokenized gold alone has seen volumes reportedly outpace many ETFs, and infrastructure providers such as Chainlink are working on data feeds that can tap into the massive U.S. equity market, while stablecoins like USDT continue to play a role in...
Bitcoin just failed a major “digital gold” test.
When Trump’s new tariff threats on key European allies hit the tape, gold and silver sprinted to fresh all‑time highs, while Bitcoin was sold hard below 93k in minutes as traders rushed to de‑risk and clear leverage. Instead of acting like an instant safe haven, BTC behaved like a high‑beta liquidity asset – sold first, explained later – even though on‑chain me...
“Metals Are Rallying, Bitcoin Is Lagging – Why That’s Been Bullish Since 2019”
Gold and copper are ripping higher while Bitcoin chops sideways – and that gap might be the tell. Since 2019, this exact metals‑up / Bitcoin‑lagging pattern has shown up before every major crypto breakout, as markets quietly price in easier liquidity long before central banks officially pivot.
Right now, gold is reac...
Most people enter crypto through hype, not a strategy.
If that’s you, you’re not alone.
Just dropped a new Orange Brick Road breakdown on building a personalised crypto plan built around:
Your age, tech confidence + real time available.
Clear goals + realistic time horizons.
Long‑term holds, short‑term ideas + passive income.
Smart tax / trust / company / super...
In the show we talk about:
How 99% of cyberattacks target end‑user devices, and why “invisibility” is the new frontier of cybersecurity.
Why ephemeral virtual machines and air‑gapped sessions are a game‑changer for high‑value online transactions, crypto, and DeFi users.
How technology originally developed by BankVault Cybersecurity (with 14+ patents and global awards) now powers VanishingP...
The crypto story for 2026 isn’t just about price — it’s about credibility.
Bitcoin is now trading on more than Fed rate expectations. As the clash between President Trump and Jerome Powell escalates, markets are starting to question whether US monetary policy is still truly independent. That’s when assets like Bitcoin and gold shift from “risk trades” to potential credibility hedges.
My latest news l...

Major assets consolidating after a volatile start to 2026
The crypto market is kicking off the week in a holding pattern, with major assets consolidating after a volatile start to 2026 while traders watch macro data and regulatory headlines. Volatility is still elevated after early‑January liquidations, but the pullback remains milder than past cycles, and institutions are eyeing clearer rules as the gat...
