Federal Reserve moved up it's rate hike calendar as surging inflation concerns pushed Jerome Powell &amp;&nbsp;FOMC into raising it's inflation outlook as well.&nbsp; Federal Reserve officials&nbsp;indicated that rate hikes could come as soon as 2023, after saying in March that it saw no increases until at least 2024. The new 'dot-plot' marking Fed member expectations pointed to two hikes in 2023. This comes at the back of a higher than expected surge in inflation. The fed also raised their inflation targets&nbsp;to 3.4%, a full percentage point higher than the March projection. The more aggressive signal from the Fed&rsquo;s forecasts saw the dollar rise, stocks decline and yields on 10-year Treasuries jump. The market was not anticipating such move up in rate hike calendar which translates to earlier than anticipated&nbsp;wrap-up of the easy money policy by the world's most powerful central bank.&nbsp;

Do you think Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is Lex&nbsp;Luthor? Well... over 8,000 people think so and have signed a petition on Change.org to deny him re-entry into Earth after he makes a trip to the edge of space in July.&nbsp;
The cheekily written petition says that &ldquo;Jeff Bezos is actually Lex Luthor, disguised as the supposed owner of a super successful online retail store, who is actually an evil overlord hell bent on global domination."
The petition has created by someone named Jose Ortiz and goes on say that Bezos&nbsp;is "in bed with the flat earth deniers" and this is the &ldquo;only way they&rsquo;ll allow him to leave the atmosphere."
Bezos, his brother Mark and two others will fly up to&nbsp;the K&aacute;rm&aacute;n line, an imaginary boundary 100 kilometers above sea level where space begins. The space capsule will be launched by Blue Origin, the space rocket launch firm founded by Bezos.&nbsp;

Cryptocurrency is the trending chat all over the globe from altcoin to blockchain here is a list of the top 10 words you need to know get chatting about the cryptos: 1

Cryptocurrency is the trending chat all over the globe from altcoin to blockchain here is a list of the top 10 words you need to know get chatting about the cryptos:
1. Altcoin:&nbsp;To be put&nbsp;simply, an Altcoin&nbsp;is any&nbsp;cryptocurrency that is not Bitcoin.&nbsp;Bitcoin is the oldest and the biggest&nbsp;cryptocurrency, any digital&nbsp;coin or token that was created after was treated as an "alternative" or Altcoin.
2. Bitcoiner:&nbsp;A Bitcoiner&nbsp;is that friend of yours who cannot stop talking about Bitcoins. Despite the volatility of Bitcoin, a Bitcoiner believes in a future where Bitcoin continues to dominate the cryptocurrency market capitalization.
3. Blockchains:&nbsp;These are a series of individual blocks connected in a chain. Each block contains information about transactions. They also contain a unique identifier to differentiate them from every other block in the chain.
4. Hash: Each block contains a reference to the preceding block, in the form of a hash. This is the key security feature of blockchain technology which makes it virtually impossible to forge the ledger.
5. Crypto&nbsp;Mining: Blocks are created by solving cryptographic problems. The process of solving these problems is known as mining.&nbsp;Mining a block on the blockchain attracts a reward. For example, at the inception of the Bitcoin blockchain, miners solving the cryptographic hashing problem were rewarded with 50 BTC.
6. Decentralised:&nbsp;We hear this quite a lot,&nbsp;"blockchains are decentralized." Instead of being controlled by one central location, the blockchain is stored on the computers of every user of that given blockchain.&nbsp;
7. Buy The Dip:&nbsp;It is the modus operandi for cryptocurrency bulls as it implies that any correction or dip or fall in a cryptocurrency&nbsp;price should mean buying more.
8. Fiat currencies:&nbsp;Fiat currency is the&nbsp;traditional legal tender like the US Dollar, Euro or Rupee, that is issued by central banks.
9. CBDC:&nbsp;Central bank digital currencies or CBDC&nbsp;are fiat currencies that exist in a digital form and are issued by central banks.
10. DeFi: Almost all financial transactions in the real world involve an intermediary of some sort, generally banks. The DeFi or decentralised finance system is based on the idea that the financial system should not be controlled by 'monopolistic' third-party providers.
