Here is your weekend crypto update with all the juicy details…
Here's what's in today's issue:

Look What MicroStrategy Did
MicroStrategy has become a Bitcoin development company that owns 1% of Bitcoin’s total supply.
So it’s no surprise that Michael Saylor’s next move is to build on Bitcoin….but wait for it…using Ordinals-like inscriptions.
I don’t think the Bitcoin Maxis were quite expecting that little detail.
Saylor unveiled his grand plans for “MicroStrategy Orange” at the MicroStrategy World Bitcoin For Corporations Conference.
It’s a decentralized identity app on Bitcoin that allows users to create decentralized identifiers (DIDs).
Essentially an orange checkmark for your email, it uses the Bitcoin blockchain to verify a user’s identity online.
MicroStrategy believes every Bitcoin Wallet should have a digital identity built into it. So, its use cases go far beyond email…e-commerce apps, social media and messaging platforms too.
