Hello beginners in crypto! Amid the hype around memecoins that often trigger FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out), it's crucial for us to remember that not everything that glitters is gold. Recently, there was a shocking case involving Eric Adams, former mayor of New York City, who launched a memecoin called $NYC Token. Instead of becoming a tool to "fight anti-Semitism and anti-Americanism" as he claimed, the token was allegedly victim to a rug pull—a classic scam scheme in the crypto world. This serves as a hard reminder for beginners: don't blindly follow trends without doing thorough research.

You often hear people say "Bitcoin is so expensive, over $90,000 per BTC!" But think again: Bitcoin is actually made up of 100,000,000 satoshi (1 BTC = 100 million satoshi). So, if you buy 1 satoshi (sat), its price is just one hundred millionth of the BTC price. On January 13, 2026, the Bitcoin price was approximately $91,000–$92,000 USD (based on real-time data from Yahoo Finance, CoinMarketCap, and official Bitcoin X updates), meaning 1 satoshi ≈ $0.00091 USD or about IDR 14–15 (exchange rate IDR 16,000/USD).

If you're new to the blockchain or crypto world, you've probably heard terms like "decentralization" or "peer-to-peer" (P2P). Well, one of the pioneers is BitTorrent, a technology that has existed since 2001 – long before Bitcoin emerged in 2009.
BitTorrent is not just a tool for downloading movies or music (although it was initially popular for that), but it's a crucial foundation for today's decentralized world.

If you're new to Bitcoin, you've probably heard people say things like, "Bitcoin is super secure" or "The network is super strong." But what do they mean? Why can't Bitcoin be "hacked" or shut down by governments or major banks? Let's explain it in simple language, without complicated terms.
1. What is the Bitcoin Network?
Bitcoin isn't owned by a single company or server like an online bank. It's a worldwide network of interconnected peer-to-peer (P2P) computers. Each of these computers is called a node (there are thousands, even tens of thousands of active nodes). They collectively maintain a copy of a ledger of transactions called the blockchain.

The news is currently trending in Indonesia's tier 1 media (such as Detik, Kompas, CNBC Indonesia, ANTARA, etc.) as of January 12, 2026. The Metro Jaya Police reportedly received a REPORT OF SUSPECTED CRYPTO INVESTMENT FRAUD (trading digital assets) on January 9, 2026, with the complainant initials Y.

The majority of victims are Gen Z (aged 18-27 years), promised profits up to 500% but ended up losing billions of rupiah (estimated total loss of over IDR 200 billion according to several reports).

Hello crypto fam who are still learning! 🚀
You've probably often heard the term "burn" in the crypto world, but what does it actually mean? And why is it important for coins like BOS (the token from BitcoinOS)? This article is for beginners like you: we'll explain buy and burn in simple terms, without complicated technical jargon. This mechanism makes tokens scarcer, potentially increases their price, and creates a healthier ecosystem. Let's dive in!

What Is Buy and Burn? (The Absolute Basics for Beginners)
Imagine you own an ice cream shop with 100 cups in stock. If many people buy, you use the sales revenue to buy more cups from the market and "burn" (permanently remove) some of the stock – making your ice cream rarer and increasing people's desire to buy at a higher price. In crypto, buy and burn works similarly: projects use part of their revenue (transaction fees) to buy their own tokens from the market (buy), then permanently destroy those tokens (burn). The result?

Imagine Bitcoin not just being stored in a wallet, but actually working on its own: earning interest, voting on projects, or even having special rules like a game or smart investment. Bitcoin has always been super secure, but it's been less "smart" compared to Ethereum.

Well, BitcoinOS (BOS) is changing all of this with a super cool feature called Charms! It's like "magic" for Bitcoin without altering its core rules. Let's dive into what Charms are and why this could make Bitcoin even crazier in 2026!

Hey, Crypto fam! In 2026, Bitcoin remains the king with a trillion-dollar market cap, but so far it's been just a store of value. Slow transactions, no smart contracts, and DeFi has struggled to enter. Enter BitcoinOS (BOS)—a Layer-2 protocol dubbed the "operating system" for Bitcoin.

Imagine Bitcoin having its own OS that enables it to run dApps, DeFi, programmable tokens, and even seamless cross-chain functionality—without changing a single line of Bitcoin Core! BOS makes this possible using advanced zero-knowledge proofs (ZK-proofs) technology.

To get started, we need to understand each type of trading. Alpha trading is usually related to more complex investment strategies and may require a deep understanding of the market. Spot trading, on the other hand, is the most straightforward direct transaction, where you buy or sell crypto assets at the current market price. This is often considered the best choice for beginners because it is easier to understand and the risks are more manageable.

Challenges and Opportunities of Bitcoin
In the context of the weakening dominance of the Dollar, Bitcoin has emerged as an attractive alternative. This cryptocurrency offers several advantages that could make it relevant amid the global crisis.

Advantages of Bitcoin
1. Decentralization: Unlike the Dollar, Bitcoin is not controlled by a single country or institution. This means that policy decisions affecting its value are not centralized in one entity, thereby reducing the risk of dependency on the policies of a single country.

BitcoinOS and LitVM are collaborating to create a more integrated and efficient ecosystem. By using Bitcoin as the foundation, BitcoinOS enables various blockchains to interact without compromising the security and reliability that Bitcoin is known for.

On the other hand, LitVM provides the necessary infrastructure to run applications and smart contracts from multiple blockchains simultaneously. This means users can leverage the features and advantages of various blockchains without having to switch or move their assets to a single platform.

With BitcoinOS and Charms, the future of the crypto world could become more inclusive and integrated. Each blockchain can leverage its own strengths without having to compete directly. This opens up new opportunities for innovation and broader collaboration among crypto communities.

With Charms, we can envision an ecosystem where users can easily switch from one blockchain to another without losing the benefits of security and liquidity. This also means developers can build more advanced and interconnected applications, harnessing the power of various blockchain technologies.
