▪️You can say hopefully about something you want to happen (but you do not know if it will happen or not).
▪️Say thankfully about an established fact.
▪️Both “hopefully” and “thankfully” can be used in the past, present, or future – but thankfully is about confirmed facts and hopefully is about unconfirmed facts:
▫️Future:
➖Hopefully, this project will be finished by the end of the month. (= I’m not sure if it will be finished by the end of the month or not, but I want it to).
➖Thankfully, this project will be finished by the end of the month. (= The project will definitely be finished by that time).
▫️Present:
➖Hopefully, there isn’t a long line at the bank. (= I am not yet at the bank, so I don’t know if the line is long or not)
➖Thankfully, there isn’t a long line at the bank. (= I am at the bank now, and I can see that the line is not long).
▫️Past:
➖Hopefully, George got home safely last night. (= I don’t know if he got home safely or not)
➖Thankfully, George got home safely last night. (= I know for a fact that George is OK – perhaps he called me and confirmed it)

A leaked Telegram discussion by 50 so-called crypto influencers has exposed the extraordinary steps they take in order to profit on the back off unsuspecting defi investors. According to a leaked screenshot of the chat, an elaborate plan to defraud defi investors using the worthless “$Few” tokens had been hatched. $Few tokens would be airdropped to some of the influencers who in turn promoted these to unsuspecting followers on Twitter.
What Is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that you can buy, sell and exchange directly, without an intermediary like a bank. Bitcoin’s creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, originally described the need for “an electronic payment system based on cryptographic proof instead of trust.” Each and every Bitcoin transaction that’s ever been made exists on a public ledger accessible to everyone, making transactions hard to reverse and difficult to fake. That’s by design: Core to their decentralized nature, Bitcoins aren’t backed by the government or any issuing institution, and there’s nothing to guarantee their value besides the proof baked in the heart of the system. “The reason why it’s worth money is simply because we, as people, decided it has value—same as gold,” says Anton Mozgovoy, co-founder & CEO of digital financial service company Holyheld.
