🎄 Open Academy wishes you a Happy New Year!

The outgoing year 2025 has been a challenging one, both for the cryptocurrency industry and for many of its participants. The market went through prolonged sideways movements, sharp volatility spikes, and billion-dollar liquidations.

✔️ In such conditions, only those who keep moving forward and boldly embrace new challenges survive.

Despite the difficulties, the Academy stood its ground and managed to grow significantly. We have come a long way — from a small idea within TMA to a multi-platform solution with dozens of courses and strong partners on board.

▪️ Our plan for the coming year is to build a large, sustainable, and successful business that will reward every user for their trust and support.

We believe that 2026 will be the year when everything we have planned comes to life. And when, in this magical time of year, the conversation turns to big goals, it’s the perfect moment to make a wish!

✨ We invite you to make your most cherished wish right now ✨

And then, to help it come true for sure, congratulate your fellow students in the comments on the most wonderful holiday — the New Year!

May financial abundance, strong health, and creative fulfillment find each and every one of you. After all, the future that lies ahead belongs to us.

Happy holidays! 🥂

🤔 BITCOIN HAS SURPASSED GOLD — TRUTH OR MYTH?

Bitcoin has surpassed gold in market capitalization and taken 3rd place in the ranking of global assets.

▪️ What do you think — is this actually true?

Correct answer: ❌

In reality, Bitcoin is only 8th in the ranking, while gold holds the honorable 1st place. By the way, today it is once again pushing toward a new ATH — $4,670 per ounce!

🪤 Why are trading manuals dangerous?

In the chats of public crypto channels, you can often see messages like this:

I was cleaning my disk recently and found a lot of useful trading manuals. If anyone’s interested, message me — I can share them for free.

At first glance, it looks like a harmless offer, but in reality, it’s not.

Even ordinary PDF files can give scammers access to your device and cryptocurrency wallets.

How does it work?

1. A scammer exploits file format vulnerabilities and embeds malicious code inside the document. It runs as soon as the victim opens the PDF.
2. The file may contain malicious links that execute scripts when clicked.

The consequences can vary — from replacing wallet addresses during transfers to the silent theft of cryptocurrency.

❗️ To stay safe, learn only from trusted sources and never open suspicious files from strangers.
