The EU just adopted its 21st sanctions package: 14 crypto platforms under full transaction bans, 94 banks and financial institutions frozen, MOEX on the list.
The headlines miss the real story. It's in the details.
What comes next matters more. The third-country transaction ban is, in essence, a European SDN list.
Platforms in the UAE, Georgia, Kazakhstan will start cutting risky flows preemptively. Analytics firms will recluster listed addresses within weeks.
Today Google Play removed MAX, VK, OK, Mail ru, Dzen and a batch of Russian apps. For users, this is not a ministry-vs-platform dispute. It is messaging, mail, cloud, music, work chats, files and contacts. When infrastructure becomes a battlefield, users clean up the mess.
“You can modify your software, but not anyone else’s.” — @adam3us on BIP-110
I’m skeptical of random BIPs that don’t solve real Bitcoin problems.
Curious how pool founders see this — what actual problem does BIP-110 solve? @janbraiins @slushcz @JihanWu @yhaiyang @satofishi
"Money reflects the value you give to the world."
No.
A famous painting sells for millions.
A life-saving medicine costs tens of dollars.
Price doesn't measure value.
It measures packaging, status, scarcity, and the luck of being in the right context.
OpenUSD is suddenly getting noisy.
Let’s see how Tether plays the next move while everyone tries to corner them.
I don’t see a clear reason for miners to support BIP-110.
It doesn’t improve mining economics, reduce operational risk, or make Bitcoin more secure from a miner’s view.
The question is simpler: who is the real beneficiary?
If it’s not clear, why should pools signal for it?
Foreign investors didn't just buy into Saudi stocks. They bought votes.
On Feb 1, the market opened to everyone for the first time. Within weeks foreigners were ~42% of buying. And votes quietly force companies to clean up their numbers.

9 years in crypto mining taught me what most investors still miss:
Cheap electricity isn't a cost. It's an asset.
#Saudi industrial power runs ~5¢/kWh, the lowest in the #G20. A country that shipped oil in barrels now exports compute.
How this re-prices a market:

The most underrated force in markets isn't earnings or macro. It's who's even allowed to buy in.
Saudi Arabia just opened its market to all foreigners. Within weeks, foreign institutions were ~42% of all buying.
Not inflow. A change of ownership.

And no visionary carries it all alone. Beside Musk stands Gwynne Shotwell: President & COO, employee #11. He sets insane goals and deadlines. She turns them into rockets and NASA contracts.
