Solana’s Messari State of Solana Q1 2026 report landed on May 19, and the headline numbers are hard to ignore: roughly 10.1 billion transactions processed in a single quarter, the highest in the network’s history, and real-world assets (RWAs) on the chain crossing $2 billion. On the surface, this looks like a clean growth story. But quarterly reports can flatter as easily as they inform. The more useful question isn’t whether the numbers are big; it’s whether they signal durable network health or a temporary spike driven by one-off activity. That’s what this breakdown is actually for. Messari State of…

Potential signalI am buying silver above the 50 day EMA, roughly $78.18, with a stop loss of $77.90 and a target of $79.75.Silver markets gapped lower, only to turn around and show signs of strength during the trading session on Wednesday as we have seen interest rates in the United States drop.

All things being…

Chris­tian­i­ty has long been close­ly iden­ti­fied with West­ern civ­i­liza­tion. The asso­ci­a­tion is espe­cial­ly strong, in mod­ern times, with the Unit­ed States of Amer­i­ca, that source of deri­sive­ly quot­ed, quite pos­si­bly apoc­ryphal argu­ments that “if Eng­lish was good enough for Jesus Christ, it ought to be good enough for our chil­dren.” But of course, Jesus nev­er heard a word of Eng­lish, and though the spread of the reli­gion named after him did shift into high gear not long after his death — to say noth­ing of after Con­stan­ti­ne’s — it took its sweet time get­ting to the Amer­i­can con­ti­nent. In fact,…

The first image of György Pálfi’s Hen – an extended close-up on a chicken’s cloaca as she lays an egg – might take the prize for the most arresting opening shot of 2025. It’s certainly a sight most cinephiles won’t have seen before, and there’s plenty of them to come in the Greek director’s poultry picture, which take a bird’s eye view from the very chick that hatches forth from that egg as she finds herself thrust into a world beyond the factory farm floor. Differentiated from the fluffy yellow sea of other chicks by her unusual dark brown plumage, one she’s grown, the central chicken’s…

Given the recent history of the Biden administration with its reliance on subsidies in its massive climate legislation, the Inflation Reduction Act, it is natural to ask whether liberal climate policy has moved beyond carbon-pricing instruments, at least in the United States.  To discuss this and related issues, I was fortunate to be joined in the latest episode of my podcast series, “Environmental Insights: Discussions on Policy and Practice from the Harvard Environmental Economics Program,” by Kenneth Gillingham, Professor of Economics at the Yale School of the Environment.  Please listen to our full conversation here. With experience as a senior…
