Today at 11:30a in Waco, Texas, the Texas Blockchain Council and Riot Platforms, Inc., asked a Federal District Judge Alan Albright for a temporary restraining order blocking the Energy Information Administration from enforcing their “emergency” survey.

As the digital age reshapes finance, Bitcoin emerges as the 21st-century gold rush, offering a frontier of potential for the savvy investor. The cryptocurrency’s stellar performance is reflected in the gains of top public companies: Coinbase has soared by 86%, Square by 63%, MicroStrategy’s holdings have skyrocketed by 313%, and even Tesla has seen a 47% increase.
