Bitcoin Breaks $100,000 Mark: A New Era for Cryptocurrency?

  

Bitcoin surpasses $100,000 for the first time, marking a historic milestone in cryptocurrency's evolution. Explore its institutional adoption, political support under President-elect Trump, and future prospects in the financial mainstream.

In a historic moment for the financial world, the price of Bitcoin surged past $100,000 for the first time on Wednesday, peaking at $103,844.05. This milestone reflects a dramatic increase of over 45% since November 5 and more than 140% year-to-date in 2024.

The rise comes amid an increasingly crypto-friendly political environment, fueled by President-elect Donald Trump’s promises to support the industry.

As you can see from the price chart above, at the time of writing this article on December 5, Bitcoin was at $101,904 with a 5.54% increase. In fact, in the last 24 hours, the price of BTC reached $112,000.

A New Chapter for Bitcoin

Bitcoin, launched 15 years ago by an unknown entity under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto, has transcended its origins as an experimental digital currency. Initially envisioned as a peer-to-peer payment system, many now view Bitcoin as a store of value and a hedge against geopolitical instability and inflation.

Institutional interest in cryptocurrency has skyrocketed, with exchange-traded funds (ETFs) playing a pivotal role.

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF, the largest of its kind, has seen significant growth since its launch in January, now valued at over $45 billion.

"There’s growing interest across institutional and wealth-management spaces," said Jay Jacobs, BlackRock's U.S. head of thematic and active ETFs. ETFs have simplified Bitcoin investment, allowing mainstream and institutional investors to capitalize on its volatile yet lucrative price movements.

Political Winds Favoring Crypto

President-elect Donald Trump’s surprising pivot from crypto skepticism to advocacy has invigorated the industry. During his campaign, Trump pledged to establish a U.S. Bitcoin "strategic reserve," eliminate taxes on crypto transactions, and create policies to encourage domestic Bitcoin mining.

His pick of Paul Atkins, a known crypto advocate, as the next SEC Chair signals a likely shift toward lighter regulation, contrasting with the strict enforcement under outgoing Chair Gary Gensler.

Trump’s engagement with the crypto community extends beyond policy. From headlining the Bitcoin Conference in Nashville to using Bitcoin for a high-profile purchase in Manhattan, he has actively courted the crypto demographic.

His administration also plans to establish a dedicated crypto policy role in the White House, marking an unprecedented move in U.S. financial governance.

Market Reactions and Future Prospects

Bitcoin’s rally has sparked renewed interest in the broader cryptocurrency market. Altcoins like Ethereum Classic (ETC) and Bitcoin SV (BSV) have seen double-digit percentage gains, reflecting broader market enthusiasm.

Experts suggest the bull market is far from over, with eToro’s Josh Gilbert noting, “This feels like the early stages of a sustained rally.”

However, Bitcoin’s notorious volatility remains a cautionary tale. Market analysts warn against overexuberance, emphasizing the potential for price corrections. Pav Hundal of Swyftx remarked on the momentum but advised caution, noting that "assets rarely rise in a straight line forever."

A Paradigm Shift in Financial Markets

Bitcoin’s ascent has drawn comparisons to gold, with Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell describing it as a “digital competitor to gold” rather than a rival to traditional currencies. Institutional players like Fidelity, Invesco, and Charles Schwab are preparing to enter the crypto market, underscoring Bitcoin’s growing legitimacy.

Mike Novogratz, CEO of Galaxy Digital, summed up the sentiment: “We’re witnessing a paradigm shift. Bitcoin and the entire digital asset ecosystem are on the brink of entering the financial mainstream.”

Looking Ahead

As Trump prepares to take office in January, the cryptocurrency community is optimistic about a regulatory environment that fosters innovation and mainstream adoption. While challenges remain—from security concerns to potential regulatory hurdles—Bitcoin’s milestone signals a transformative moment for the financial landscape.

The road ahead may not be smooth, but with institutional adoption rising and political support strengthening, Bitcoin’s journey from a niche asset to a global financial staple appears inevitable. Whether this surge heralds a new era or is merely another peak in its volatile history, one thing is clear: Bitcoin has cemented its place in the financial world.

Conclusion

The strengthening of support for Bitcoin has made cryptocurrency more trusted and investors with traditional investment instruments are slowly looking at crypto.

Master Pogi: The Pinoy Version of Mr. Satan and Master Roshi

In the world of Philippine pop culture, one character stands out for his unique blend of humor, martial arts prowess (or lack thereof), and charm—Master Pogi. Known as the "Pinoy version" of Mr. Satan from Dragon Ball or Master Roshi, this character is beloved for his comic relief, exaggerated bravado, and entertaining antics. He may not have the physical strength of the iconic martial artists from the Dragon Ball universe, but Master Pogi is a force to be reckoned with in his own right, offering a dose of hilarity and heart to those who follow his exploits.

Who is Master Pogi?

Master Pogi, a character created by Filipino writer-director and artist, is often compared to other well-known martial arts comic characters like Dragon Ball’s Mr. Satan (or Hercule) and Master Roshi. These characters, while not the most skilled fighters, possess larger-than-life personalities that endear them to fans. Master Pogi follows in their footsteps, embodying traits that make him both a figure of ridicule and a surprisingly relatable character in the Philippine entertainment landscape.

Though often portrayed as a fraud in terms of combat ability, Master Pogi has cultivated a reputation of being a hero in the eyes of the public. His "underdog" appeal is one of the reasons audiences love him. Similar to how Mr. Satan is seen as a "champion" in the Dragon Ball world, despite his inability to face off against the true threats like Goku or Vegeta, Master Pogi’s fame is based largely on his self-proclaimed mastery of martial arts—though anyone who observes him closely can tell he's more about style and showmanship than substance.

The Character’s Origins

Master Pogi was introduced in Filipino TV series, movies, and comics as a martial artist who often finds himself in situations that demand far more bravery than his actual abilities can provide. Unlike Mr. Satan or Master Roshi, who are directly linked to their respective universes’ martial arts traditions, Master Pogi’s abilities are more about the image he projects. He is often a symbol of the everyman in the Philippines—someone who claims greatness but struggles to meet expectations.

His roots are deeply tied to the Filipino comedic tradition, which has a long history of characters who are both larger-than-life and grounded in relatability. The Filipino penchant for humor mixed with heroism can be traced back to beloved icons such as Enteng Kabisote or Si Agimat. Master Pogi fits into this mold perfectly: he’s charming, exaggerated, and never quite as skilled as he claims to be.

His Fighting Skills and Personality

While Master Pogi's claim to fame is his “martial arts mastery,” his skills leave much to be desired. Like Mr. Satan, who thrives on the fame of his victory over Cell, Master Pogi often finds himself in situations where he must pretend to be a great warrior, even if his “powers” are nothing more than exaggerated claims or, in some cases, pure luck.

His fighting style, if it can be called that, is often clumsy, relying more on showmanship than actual technique. He’ll frequently talk a big game, drawing on his years of experience as a self-proclaimed martial arts master, yet when push comes to shove, he struggles to deliver. Despite this, he retains an undeniable popularity among fans because of his amusing nature, antics, and a sense of "feel-good" entertainment.

Similar to Master Roshi’s role as a wise but often goofy teacher in Dragon Ball, Master Pogi also carries an aura of mentorship, albeit in a much more comedic light. His students or disciples may not take him seriously, but they often find wisdom in his humor, a trait that further endears him to audiences.

Master Pogi in the Philippines’ Cultural Landscape

Master Pogi’s popularity speaks volumes about Filipino entertainment’s embrace of exaggerated characters who reflect the nation’s values and humor. Just as Dragon Ball’s Mr. Satan was a media darling despite being more of a showman than a fighter, Master Pogi enjoys similar success. He represents the Filipino's ability to laugh at themselves while also embracing characters who defy expectations.

His role in pop culture also serves as a commentary on the perception of fame and heroism in the modern world. In a society where social media influencers and reality TV stars often ascend to celebrity status, Master Pogi acts as a satirical reflection of this trend. He reminds us that fame and popularity do not always equate to actual skill or ability. Instead, it's the bravado and confidence that often carry the day, no matter how misplaced they might be.

Comparisons to Mr. Satan and Master Roshi

While Master Pogi’s origins and antics are more localized, his role in Philippine pop culture can be compared to both Mr. Satan and Master Roshi, albeit with a distinct Filipino twist. Like Mr. Satan, Master Pogi enjoys a reputation far greater than his actual fighting ability. He becomes a champion in the public eye, not because of any great feats of strength but because of his ability to charm, deceive, and entertain.

On the other hand, Master Roshi’s role as a mentor and teacher resonates with Master Pogi’s attempts at sharing his martial arts wisdom (though more in jest). Both characters are integral to their respective universes as comic relief, but also as figures who provide valuable life lessons, albeit with a sense of humor.

Conclusion: 

Why Master Pogi Endures

Master Pogi’s place in Philippine pop culture is cemented by his ability to entertain, even when he’s not the most skilled fighter in the room. His charm, bravado, and relatable flaws make him an endearing figure—one that Filipino audiences can laugh with and root for, even if he’s not quite as heroic as he claims to be.

In a world where true strength is often measured in power and ability, Master Pogi reminds us that sometimes, it’s not about being the best but about how you carry yourself and how others perceive you. He may not have the abilities of Dragon Ball’s Goku or the unyielding bravado of Mr. Satan, but he has something even more important: the hearts of the Filipino people. And that, perhaps, is the most powerful trait of all.

Master Pogi, being a witty and charismatic character, would likely have an opening dialogue that immediately establishes his charm, confidence, and a hint of humor. :

“Bakit Nag-Viral si Master Pogi sa SM? Clue: Sobrang Gwapo, Walang Kapantay!”

“Master Pogi’s SM Adventure: Shopping, Smiles, and Sobrang Pogi Moments!”

“Pogi Points Overload! Master Pogi’s Day Out at SM Supermalls Will Make You LOL!”

“Nagkagulo ang Mall? Master Pogi Spotted at SM Supermalls—Find Out Why!”



"Magandang araw sa inyong lahat! Ako si Master Pogi—hindi lang sa pangalan, kundi pati sa gawa, at siyempre, sa hitsura! Dahil ang kagwapuhan ko, hindi ito basta-basta—mana sa talento, kasabay ng sipag at tiyaga. Kaya, relax lang kayo diyan at ako na ang bahala!"

"Hoy! Hinto muna kayo diyan, baka malaglag kayong lahat sa kinauupuan niyo—dumating na si Master Pogi! Oo, tama ang narinig niyo... 'Master' sa talino, 'Pogi' sa mukha! Hindi ko na kasalanan kung pinanganak akong perfect. Kung may reklamo kayo, sa magulang ko kayo dumiretso! Hahaha! Pero seryoso, nandito ako para bigyan kayo ng aliw, kwento, at siyempre, ng konting gabay sa buhay… kasi sa hitsura ko pa lang, inspirasyon na, ‘di ba?"



"Mga kaibigan, alam kong matagal niyo na akong hinihintay… huwag kayong mag-alala, nandito na si Master Pogi! Kung nagtataka kayo kung bakit ako ganito ka-guwapo, simple lang ang sagot—hindi ako nag-effort, natural lang talaga. Kung pwede lang ipamahagi ang kagwapuhan ko, matagal ko nang ginawa… kaso bawal daw, baka mawalan ng trabaho ang mga artista. Hahaha! Pero seryoso, huwag kayong mainggit, masama 'yan sa kidney! Chill lang tayo, ako ang bahala sa inyo!"



"Teka, teka! Alam kong nagulat kayo—oo, totoo ito, hindi kayo nananaginip! Ako po ito, si Master Pogi, ang pambansang pampasaya, pambansang pogi, at pangarap ng bayan! Sabi nila, ang gwapo raw ay parang pizza—lahat gusto, pero hindi lahat makakakuha. Pasensya na po, exclusive lang ako para sa mga deserving! Hahaha!"


"Mga kaibigan, pakihanda ang mga mata niyo... baka kasi maluha sa sobrang ganda ng tanawing kaharap niyo ngayon—ako! Oo, si Master Pogi! Huwag kayong mag-alala, hindi ko kayo sisingilin sa pagtingin, libre ito ngayon. Pero ‘pag nalampasan ko na si Brad Pitt, baka magbago ang presyo! Hahaha!"


"Alam niyo ba kung bakit ako tinawag na Master Pogi? Kasi nung ipinanganak ako, sabi ng doktor, 'Congratulations! Napaka-pogi ng anak niyo!' Sabi ng nanay ko, 'Hindi ba dapat maganda lang?' Sagot ng doktor, 'Hindi puwede, sumobra na kasi!' Kaya heto ako ngayon, pang-lifetime ang kagwapuhan!"


"Mga kaibigan, huwag niyo akong tinititigan nang matagal… baka ma-in love kayo. Ang gwapo ko kasi parang traffic—nakakabighani pero nakakabaliw din! Kaya kung ayaw niyong magka-heartbreak, pumikit na lang kayo habang nagsasalita ako. Hahaha!"


"Ako po si Master Pogi—ang kauna-unahang tao na sobrang gwapo, kailangan pang ipa-verify sa Guinness Book of World Records. Pero sabi nila, ‘Sorry, Master Pogi, hindi ito pwedeng isali, baka mawalan ng kumpiyansa ang ibang tao!’ Kaya wala na akong choice kundi maging humble… kahit mahirap!"


"Tandaan niyo ito, mga kaibigan: Ang buhay ay parang pagtingin kay Master Pogi—maikli pero sulit! Kaya sulitin niyo ang bawat segundo, kasi sa sobrang gwapo ko, baka maubusan kayo ng hangin! Hahaha!"


"Mga kaibigan, alam kong hindi niyo ako makalimutan... kasi ang gwapo ko, parang WiFi—kahit saan ka pumunta, connected ka pa rin sa akin! At kung mabagal ang signal, huwag mag-alala, pagtingin niyo pa lang sa akin, full bars na agad!"


"Excuse me po, huwag niyo akong tinitigan ng ganyan, baka mapa-'wow' kayo nang hindi oras. Ako po si Master Pogi—ako lang ang taong pinagmamasdan ng salamin at sinasabing, 'Salamat at ikaw ang nasa harap ko!' Hahaha!"


"Alam niyo bang bawal akong dumaan sa salamin nang walang paalala? Kasi tuwing dumadaan ako, bumubulong ang salamin, 'Easy lang, Master Pogi, baka matunaw ako sa kagwapuhan mo!' Kaya para safe tayo lahat, lagi akong nagdadaan nang nakapikit!"


"Marami ang nagtatanong: Master Pogi, ano ang sikreto mo sa kagwapuhan? Simple lang, mga kaibigan—uminom ng tubig, matulog ng maaga, at… huwag masyadong umasa, kasi hindi niyo ako matutularan. Natural lang kasi! Hahaha!"


"Kung iniisip niyo kung bakit sobrang ganda ng araw na ‘to, simple lang ang sagot—nandito ako! Si Master Pogi, ang nag-iisang taong kayang magpa-araw kahit gabi na. Pero relax lang, hindi ko sinasadyang maging ganito ka-perpekto!"


"Mga kaibigan, huwag niyo akong masyadong lapitan, baka magka-short circuit kayo sa sobrang electrifying ng presence ko. Parang kuryente kasi ang dating ko—high voltage sa kagwapuhan, at shockproof sa lahat ng haters!"


"Hindi ko naman sinasabi na ako ang pinaka-gwapo sa balat ng lupa… pero isipin niyo, kung beauty contest ito, wala nang second place. Ako na agad panalo! Kaya ‘wag nang magtaka, Master Pogi kasi ito!"



"Mga kaibigan, bago ko simulan ‘to, mag-ready muna kayo ng panyo. Bakit? Kasi pag nakita niyo ako, baka mapaiyak kayo sa sobrang ganda ng nilikha ng Diyos! Hindi ko rin kasalanan ‘to—si Lord na ang nagbigay, ako na lang ang nagdala!"


"Alam niyo ba kung bakit hindi ako sumasali sa mga pageant? Kasi unfair daw. Sabi ng mga judges, ‘Pag ikaw ang kasali, tapos na agad ang laban!’ Kaya ako na lang nagbigay ng chance sa iba… humble naman ako eh!"


"Hoy, tigilan niyo na ang kakahanap sa Google ng ‘Poging Tao’—nandito na ako sa harap niyo! Si Master Pogi po, live and in HD. At kung hindi pa kayo naniniwala, subukan niyo akong i-zoom—lalo akong gagwapo!"


"Marami nang nagsabi na hindi daw ako totoo. Sabi ko naman, ‘Hindi ako alamat, hindi ako chismis… Ako’y Master Pogi—ang taong kayang magpa-fall kahit walang ginagawa!’ Kaya ‘wag niyo akong tinititigan nang matagal, baka ma-in love kayo nang biglaan."


"Sabi nila, bawal daw ang perpekto sa mundo. Pero nung dumating ako, sabi ni Lord, ‘Sige na nga, gagawa ako ng exception!’ Kaya heto ako ngayon, naglalakad-lakad lang, pero para akong art exhibit na pinagkakaguluhan!"


"‘Master Pogi, totoo bang walang forever?’ Naku, mali kayo! Merong forever—at ang forever na ‘yon ay ang kagwapuhan ko. Hindi naluluma, hindi nawawala, at lalong hindi bumababa ang kalidad. Lifetime warranty po ito!"


"Paalala lang sa mga nagmamahal sakin: Bawal magselos, isa-isa lang. Alam kong mahirap, pero kaya niyo ‘to. At kung hindi niyo kaya, huwag mag-alala—naka-schedule naman ang lahat ng pagtingin sa akin! Hahaha!"


"Kung beauty ang usapan, ako ang ‘Pambansang Sumbungan.’ Bakit? Kasi tuwing nakakakita kayo ng gwapo, iniisip niyo agad—‘Bakit hindi ako ganun?’ Huwag mag-alala, mahirap talagang maging katulad ni Master Pogi!"


"Alam niyo ba, na minsan nalilito ang mga tao kung artista ba ako o superhero? Sabi ko, ‘Pareho!’ Kasi tuwing dumadaan ako, may naririnig akong ‘Wow!’ at ‘Whew!’ Ganyan kalakas ang impact ko, mga kaibigan!"


"Huwag kayong magtaka kung bigla kayong mapangiti. Ako na kasi ang nasa harap niyo. Master Pogi po—pampagaan ng araw, pampawala ng lungkot, at pang-forever sa puso ng bayan!"




"Mga kaibigan, sabi nila walang perpektong tao… pero nung makita nila ako, nagbago ang mundo. Master Pogi po, pinatunayan kong may ‘perfect’—at hindi lang ito tsismis, totoo ito sa 4K resolution!"


"Pasensya na po kung na-distract kayo, alam kong mahirap mag-focus kapag ganito kagwapo ang kaharap niyo. Kaya bigyan ko kayo ng 5 seconds… Huminga muna kayo, relax lang. Okay na? Sige, tuloy tayo!"


"Alam niyo bang bawal akong maglakad sa kalye nang walang bodyguard? Hindi dahil sa danger—kundi dahil baka magka-traffic sa sobrang dami ng gustong magpa-picture! Master Pogi kasi, trending kahit sa personal."


"Sabi ng kapitbahay ko, ‘Master Pogi, ano ba secret mo sa kagwapuhan?’ Sabi ko, ‘Simple lang—maligo ka, mag-toothbrush, at huwag kang umasa na magiging katulad ko. Bihira lang ang ganito sa mundo!’"


"Mga tropa, pagpasensyahan niyo na kung hindi ko kayo agad napansin. Minsan kasi, kahit ako nalulula sa sarili kong kagwapuhan. Sabi ng salamin, ‘Chill ka lang, Master Pogi, baka sumabog ako!’"


"Teka, huwag niyo akong sisihin kung sumakit ang mga mata niyo—ganyan talaga kapag sobrang ganda ng tanawin. Si Master Pogi po ito, certified eye candy at pambansang pampasaya ng bayan!"


"Isang paalala sa mga pogi wannabe: Huwag kayong magmadali, hindi lahat ng pogi ay pwedeng maging Master. Pero huwag kayong malungkot, balang araw, maaabot niyo rin… kahit sa panaginip lang!"


"Alam niyo ba kung bakit hindi ko sinasagot ang mga nagpapalipad-hangin sa akin? Kasi ako po, Master Pogi—ako ang nag-iisang goal, hindi option. Kaya, huwag kayong umasa na madali lang akong lapitan!"


"Huwag kayong mag-alala kung medyo nahihirapan kayong huminga habang nandito ako. Sabi ng mga doktor, natural lang daw ‘yan kapag nasa paligid ang sobrang gwapo. Pero huwag kayong mag-panic—kasama na sa package ko ang life support!"


"Mga kaibigan, ito ang katotohanan: Ang kagwapuhan ko ay parang gamot. Wala sa botika, pero nakakagaan ng loob, pampatanggal ng stress, at side effect lang ang pagka-in love. Kaya ‘wag kayong matakot, subok na ito!"

These punchlines continue to showcase Master Pogi as a larger-than-life, hilarious, and self-proclaimed “king of pogi,” mixing comedy, charm, and wit to keep everyone entertained!



Here are some witty and humorous Master Pogi dialogues related to SM Supermalls:

"Mga kaibigan, sabi nila 'We got it all for you' ang SM. Pero nung dumaan ako, sabi ng guard, 'Sir, kulang na po pala kami ng isa—kagwapuhan niyo!' Kaya ayun, nadagdagan ang pogi points ng buong mall dahil sakin!"


"Nagtataka ba kayo bakit mahirap maglakad sa SM kapag nandito si Master Pogi? Simple lang—lahat kasi ng tao napapatigil at napapatulala. Sabi ko nga, ‘Sorry po, hindi ko sinasadya!’ Pero huwag kayong mag-alala, may sapat pang space para sa ibang shoppers!"


"Ang SM Supermalls ay may 'Endless Shopping, Endless Fun.' Pero nung dumating ako, nadagdagan pa—‘Endless Poginess!’ Kung nagtataka kayo, huwag niyo nang isipin, Master Pogi kasi ito, certified crowd drawer!"


"Sabi ng saleslady sa SM, ‘Sir, may hinahanap po ba kayo?’ Sabi ko, ‘Wala na po, nakita ko na ang lahat… sarili ko lang pala sa salamin.’ Kaya kahit hindi ako bumili, sulit na agad ang punta ko dito!"


"Alam niyo ba, favorite ko ang SM kasi may ‘mall-wide sale.’ Pero tuwing dumadaan ako, biglang may ‘heart-wide sale’—lahat ng puso, bumabagsak sa akin! Kaya kung single kayo, ‘wag nang lumapit, baka madagdagan ang brokenhearted dito!"


"Nung pumunta ako sa SM, naghanap ako ng Customer Service. Sabi ko, ‘Miss, nawawala po ako…’ Sabi niya, ‘Sir, saan po kayo nawawala?’ Sabi ko, ‘Sa sobrang dami ng nagkakagusto sakin dito!’ Kaya ‘wag kayong magtaka kung saan-saan ako napapadpad!"


"Kahit saan ka pumunta sa SM, may free WiFi. Pero nung dumaan ako, biglang bumagsak ang connection. Bakit? Kasi masyadong hotspot ang presensya ko! Sabi nila, ‘Master Pogi, bawasan mo ang signal mo, nasisira ang sistema!’"


"Sa SM Foodcourt, sabi ng tindera, ‘Sir, kumain po kayo nang marami.’ Sabi ko, ‘Miss, sa hitsura ko palang, busog na lahat ng tao sa kagwapuhan!’ Pero syempre, umorder pa rin ako… kasi pogi ako, pero gutom din minsan!"


"Sabi ng mga taga-SM, ‘Here at SM, we got it all for you.’ Kaya nung dumating ako, sabi ko, ‘Paano yan? Ako lang ang kulang!’ Ngayon kompleto na sila, Master Pogi kasi ito—limited edition!"


"Kapag nasa SM ako, parang may free show sa lahat ng floor—ako ang bida. Nagtataka tuloy ang mga tao, ‘Sino ba ‘yan? Artista ba?’ Sabi ko, ‘Hindi po, ako lang si Master Pogi—mall ambassador ng kagwapuhan at kacharmingan!’"

These dialogues mix humor and exaggerated confidence while cleverly integrating SM Supermalls slogans and features for an entertaining delivery. Perfect for Master Pogi’s witty personality!
