Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Bitcoin and the broader crypto market have seen a steady recover in recent months following the price crash in April and May that wiped more than a trillion dollars from the overall market cap.

But a rocky roll out of El Salvador’s pioneering Bitcoin Law, together with hoax news articles about litecoin and more market-moving tweets from Elon Musk, have caused a chaotic few days for cryptocurrencies.

To help make sense of it all, as well as speculate on what the future holds for bitcoin and other leading cryptocurrencies, The Independent has invited two experts in their fields to offer their thoughts and predictions.
