Estou desenvolvendo uma ferramenta e gostaria de feedback.</title><description><![CDATA[&#x200B; Nos últimos meses venho estudando como a Inteligência Artificial pode ajudar na análise do mercado de Bitcoin, principalmente na identificação de tendências, gerenciamento de risco e redução das decisões emocionais. Percebi que muitos traders ainda enfrentam os mesmos desafios: Entrar cedo ou tarde demais. Definir Stop Loss e Take Profit. Operar por impulso durante períodos de alta volatilidade. Por isso comecei a desenvolver uma ferramenta de IA que analisa dados do mercado e gera informações para auxiliar na tomada de decisão. O objetivo não é prever o futuro nem prometer lucros, mas fornecer análises baseadas em dados. Tenho algumas perguntas para a comunidade: Quais indicadores vocês consideram indispensáveis para analisar o Bitcoin? Vocês utilizariam uma IA apenas como apoio à decisão ou preferem fazer toda a análise manual? Quais recursos fariam vocês confiar em uma ferramenta desse tipo? Se alguém tiver interesse em conhecer o projeto e dar um feedback, deixo o link aqui: https://iapurotrade.com/index.html⁠� Toda crítica e sugestão são muito bem-vindas. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/According_Current_27 [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/como-voces-usam-ia-para-analisar-o-bitcoin-estou-desenvolvendo-uma-ferramenta-e-gostaria-de-feedback</link><guid>872662</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Como vocês usam IA para analisar o Bitcoin?

I wonder how they&#39;re doing. Not in a &quot;point and laugh at the obvious shit-stirrers getting their comeuppance&quot; kind of way, because despite my disdain for the NFT craze and the sneering contempt NTFbros had for everyone outside of their community, there was zero excuse for the negligence shown by the party organisers and nobody deserves to go blind because they went to a dinky fuck-ass little dance party like these guys did. More than anything, I want to know if there were any long-lasting health effects due to the burns and I&#39;d be fascinated to hear about how the affected people feel about the NFT craze and Bored Ape specifically in the aftermath of the incident.

See You in 10 Years.</title><description><![CDATA[I sold every other asset I owned, stopped my pension contributions, took out loans, and we even sold our old flat in Delhi. Altogether, I have invested around $90,000 to $95,000 into BTC. I started buying near $100k, continued as it climbed toward $126k, and added more during the recent lows. This is risky, but it was calculated. My salary covers the loan payments, and based on my calculations, I should be able to repay everything within two and a half years. I would not recommend anyone blindly copy this. But after years of learning about Bitcoin, money, inflation, and scarcity, this is where my conviction is strongest. Maybe it becomes the biggest mistake of my life. Maybe it changes my family’s future. Repay the debt. Secure the Bitcoin.

I re-ran the same query today. The table now holds 112,114 contracts, and the all-time rate rose to 59.8%. But the average buries the story. Of the 31,172 tokens deployed since that post, 76.4% are scams, and the monthly rate just hit 82.8% in July. Honesty check, because I got asked this directly: how much of the 46 -&gt; 60 jump is a scammier chain vs a sharper detector? Both, and I can&#39;t cleanly separate them: - More scams: every real-time month lands between 70% and 83% at a fixed 70+ threshold. - Sharper detector: a scam now carries 11.06 flags on average vs 8.27 in May (+34%), new detectors landed (serial-scammer bytecode, drainer kits, hidden kill-switches). Our score floors on flag COUNT, so more flags push more contracts over the line. - Late rugs: ~30% of the table gets re-scored a day+ later. A token clean at launch that pulls liquidity a week later flips clean -&gt; scam with zero new scams deployed. TL;DR - 78,723 -&gt; 112,114 contracts in 2 months. - All-time scam rate 46.1% -&gt; 59.8% (three overlapping causes, not one). - New launches since May: 76.4% scams. July: 82.8%. - 441,762 distinct victim wallets traced across 5.26M scam-token transactions.

No link here, just sharing because I think the underlying facts are worth this sub’s time on their own. On July 7, President Tokayev signed a decree that bundles three things worth knowing: 1/ Tax. A planned exemption from personal income tax on gains from digital asset transactions conducted through Kazakhstan’s regulated infrastructure. Officials have described this as “planned,” so the implementing rules aren’t fully live yet, but the direction is explicit and it came straight from the Ministry of AI and Digital Development. 2/ Mining. A new mechanism letting associated petroleum gas and natural gas that isn’t needed for state use be converted into electricity for mining operations. This is aimed at monetizing stranded/flared gas that was otherwise being wasted. 3/ Offshore coins. A framework to bring previously unregistered or offshore-held crypto assets into the regulated domestic system, alongside groundwork for stablecoin-based cross-border settlement. Context that makes this land differently: Kazakhstan is the world’s third-largest Bitcoin mining nation by hashrate, behind only the US and China. This is the same country that banned mining and slapped punitive electricity tariffs on miners back in 2021–22 after the post-China-ban influx overloaded its grid. Going from “we’re taxing you out” to “0% on gains, here’s some stranded gas to mine with” in four years is a real reversal. On the tax point specifically: if this holds as written, it puts Kazakhstan ahead of most G7 countries, several of which still tax Bitcoin gains as ordinary income with no exemption at all. For reference, across the ~140 countries I track, the current split is roughly 6 clearly pro-Bitcoin, 11 openly hostile, and the rest (~123) somewhere in between with unclear or inconsistent policy. Genuinely curious what this sub thinks: is this a real long-term bet on Bitcoin infrastructure, or a play to grab mining revenue and hashrate share while the window’s open, and does it matter which one it is? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/The_Bitcoin_Act [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/kazakhstan-just-moved-toward-0-tax-on-bitcoin-gains-and-legal-gas-powered-mining</link><guid>872517</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Kazakhstan just moved toward 0% tax on Bitcoin gains and legal gas-powered mining</dc:text></item><item><title>Bitcoin can never go to zero.

Now I want to build something meaningful.</title><description><![CDATA[11 years in corporate. Somewhere around reorganization number 10 and slide deck number 500, I stopped counting and started thinking. I don&#39;t want to be in the flywheel anymore, obeying things that make no sense and bending over to corporate politeness. I want to build something of my own and prove I can do it by myself. When I discovered Bitcoin 8 years ago, I put in the hours to understand it. After that, I could not unsee it. The mission is noble, and Bitcoin is the only thing I&#39;ve ever felt worth building for. Not for the glory. For the mission. I dream about it, it occupies my mind every night before I fall asleep. Money that cannot be debased. Freedom. A heritage you can actually pass on to your kids. That resonates with me. So this year I stop watching and start building. Nights and weekends, next to the day job. Something that helps normal people get in and hold their own keys. I will probably fail in public a few times. Fine. I&#39;m more scared of reorg number 20 than of failing at something I believe in. If you feel the same flywheel, follow along. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Bitcoin_First [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/calling-it-a-day-after-11-years-in-corporate-and-slide-deck-number-500-now-i-want-to-build-something-meaningful</link><guid>872434</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Calling it a day after 11 years in corporate and slide deck number 500.

They only suggest that I be patient, and that they&#39;ve sent the documents that I&#39;ve already sent them to the proper department without any follow up. I&#39;ve used NC Wallet for the better part of 3 years sending to and from the same wallets every time and never had a real issue, (other than the lack of providing a TxID for sometimes several days before actually processing and completing,) until I finally deposited a decent amount from a casino ($5,000) and then all of the sudden there&#39;s a problem and they need to verify my identity, (which it literally says is not required and won&#39;t even let you until they flag the KYC Verification, and that I&#39;ve now been waiting 2 weeks for.) Now, for obvious reasons I&#39;m submitting reviews on Reddit, Trustpilot, Google Play Store and the major social media platforms about the type of trap this wallet is. I will also be reporting to the DFPI if for whatever reason they cease to communicate with me entirely. Like I said, I&#39;ve never really had a problem with the app and would like to continue using it or at leaat get my funds back, however, I&#39;m not about to just let $5,000 of mine just get taken without doing something about it. I&#39;ve read a couple of posts that said they were able to get their accounts back, idk on the legitimacy of that, but I would love to be one of them. If anything, this post is more to let the people that may not know that NC Wallet is definitely not the Wallet to store any of your crypto if you want to have control of your funds. Learn from mine and many others mistakes.. I will edit this post if for some miracle they push my verification through.

I started posting on a loopring specific sub a couple of days ago. I was calling out what appeared to me a significant move toward a negative funding rate on 7/14 but looking at the chart now that seems a blip compared to the level of negative funding rate as of today. We are also starting to see liquidations as well with short liquidations outnumbering long liquidations. We will see what happens into the future. Two questions that I wanted to dig into today: With the closing of Loopring&#39;s L2 DEX and the distribution back to L1 does that provide enough LRC tokens that this funding rate disconnect will wash out and go back to normal? Let&#39;s look at the data. From the token distribution file that the Loopring team posted on this X post (https://x.com/loopringorg/status/2072987477405835340), specifically phase-1/token-list for LRC, we see this value &quot;user_balance_minus_dust&quot;: &quot;44952786.682053&quot;. At the current approximate price as of the time of this posting ($0.01661) that represents ~$750,000 dollars worth of LRC The current open interest for LRC from the screenshot above is $8.53M which increased more than 600% in the last 24 hours. Even if every single holder that held LRC on layer 2 immediately sold right now the perpetual market has increased exposure at least 6-7x that in the last 24 hours. How much is it currently costing net short perpetual futures parties per day to continue to maintain their short position Just looking at OKX at the time of writing this up OI was $2.01M and the funding rate was -0.4832% which gives a value of $9,712.32 that needs to be paid per period which on OKX there are 3 periods per day So for one platform this is ~$30,000 a day that needs to be paid to longs just to maintain the current level of short. Are there coins that you hold where it seems like the perpetual futures market dwarfs the spot market? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/epistmeme [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/717-lrc-perpetual-snapshot</link><guid>872272</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>7/17 LRC Perpetual Snapshot</dc:text></item><item><title>Will BIP 110 Succeed?</title><description><![CDATA[ Great video.

The timing just feels awful because I wasn&#39;t planning to sell anything right now. Most of my BTC and ETH are part of my long-term holdings, and I try not to touch them unless it&#39;s for a major expense. The last time I sold any was to help pay for a car. I also have a much smaller perpetual futures position that I opened a few weeks ago, but it hasn&#39;t reached the profit level I was hoping for. Now I&#39;m stuck deciding whether to close that position or sell a small portion of my long-term holdings instead. Looking back, I definitely wish I&#39;d kept a larger cash emergency fund instead of being in this position. For those who&#39;ve had to raise cash unexpectedly, how did you decide what to sell? Did you protect your long-term investments and close shorter-term trades first, or did you take a different approach? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Street_Area1297 [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/need-cash-but-hate-deciding-which-crypto-position-to-cut</link><guid>872266</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Need cash but hate deciding which crypto position to cut</dc:text></item><item><title>Is my Money forever lost?

This article might get everyone, involved in the movement prepared. Let me start off by saying I’m not pro-BIP110, and I’m not anti-BIP110. If it actually succeeds as something that gains true consensus within the network and ends up being enforced by a majority of the network… cool. If so, then we’ll go with it because the network has spoken and accepted it, and all nodes, including non-BIP110 nodes, will be pulled along for the ride. Unfortunately for proponents of the proposal, that simply isn’t currently the case by any measurable metric, nor does it appear to have a trajectory suggesting that will change, either. There’s been a lot of misleading information about this whole thing, especially in the context of mining. Few quick key bullet points to briefly counter some hyperbole from proponents: BIP110 is NOT inevitable. It CAN fail. BIP110 can and will cause a chain split/fork in a minority hashrate situation. BIP110 is NOT without risk to miners choosing to adopt it. Miners not supporting BIP110 are not suddenly mining “invalid” blocks just because a proposal that isn’t yet adopted simply exists. You’re not a bad person or evil simply because you don’t like or support BIP110. (The fact that I feel the need to point out that last part is actually kind of sad…) I was going to write a long post to help keep miners informed about things they need to remain aware of as this all plays out… before realizing I already did so months ago as a document I authored that I had hoped could be put out as a miner education piece at OCEAN. Sadly, it never got published. So I went ahead and updated it, and well, here it is: https://docs.google.com/document/d/14DfMSVYBHTHIOmW32JTOR6BAP7AITbinvrhl8rJuvvc/edit?usp=sharing Again, keep in mind this was written months ago, intended to be as agnostic as possible in an effort to make it acceptable as a corporate post. That effort failed, so I&#39;m posting it as a personal document today instead. As a miner making important decisions about your operations, you need to be aware of all of this without the sugarcoating and frankly outright misleading information coming from some of the BIP110 proponents. You must be vigilant, and decide what’s right for you. While there is certainly some misleading information from the opposition as well, nothing I’ve seen is nearly as egregious as the extremely premature claims of victory and accompanying hyperbole pushed by the BIP110 side. Summarizing my doc a bit, my personal suggestion to miners is this: Signal if you support BIP110 Do not signal if you don’t support BIP110 or don’t care Either way, monitor the network on/around/before block 961632. If you continue to see non-signaling blocks from major pools you can be reasonably certain they’re not going to suddenly decide later to throw away millions of dollars worth of revenue to backtrack and signal for BIP110. If they do by some chance start to signal for BIP110, you should monitor that and consider switching as required to stay on the heaviest chain. Key point being that realistically, only one side can win. It’s either BIP110 succeeds and miners not on the BIP110 side fail, or BIP110 fails and miners on the non-BIP110 side succeed. Moving on, let’s dive into some small fraction of my rationale. ????QUICK FACT: Between 7 and 15% of Bitcoin Nodes are signaling support for BIP110. Depending on which centralized crawler you look at… no way to know for sure. My personal private crawler puts this number much lower, but that’s a discussion for another day. Suffice it to say, I think it’s logical and correct to say that even 15% is not a majority. “But Jason! UASF got Segwit activated with fewer nodes!” Yep, because many miners, merchants, users, etc all actually wanted Segwit. There was tremendous economic and community weight behind it. Without rehashing that whole thing (plenty of resources on the topic from before BIP110 that are worth a read), suffice it to say that BIP110 and Segwit activations are not quite comparable, as many have already pointed out. Segwit, for example, went into its UASF territory with around 1/3rd of the network hashrate already signaling support. With that kind of backing, the UASF to help push the MASF over the tipping point made a lot of sense. It doesn&#39;t make sense here for BIP110. ????QUICK FACT: 0.6% of blocks over the past 60 days have signaled support for BIP110. Pretty stark contrast to even Segwit’s low baseline support. Yes, I know it&#39;s increased slightly in the past couple of weeks, but no new entrants. Just more clearly rented hashrate from one of the same small proponants. Something to keep in mind is that mining BIP110 signaling blocks via DATUM on OCEAN carries virtually no risk to the miner up until the fork point at block 961632. The cost is negligible, as you&#39;re effectively guaranteed to recoup rental costs, etc. It&#39;s awesome that the ability to do so exists, and I wouldn&#39;t have it any other way... but just something to keep in mind when weighing signaling from such blocks in the grand scheme of things from a risk/reward/money-on-the-table perspective. “But Jason! Miners have no incentive to signal until the last minute!” I also see no evidence to suggest that this could be the case. Subjectively, I disagree with the premise, as it’s not in a mining pool’s best interest to destabilize the network in such a way. Part of the reason for early signaling and lock-in periods is to help coordinate upgrades in a smooth fashion. Waiting until the last minute negates that benefit entirely. I see no compelling rationale or upside to doing so. Continuing on this, as part of my personal node monitoring setup, I specifically monitor nodes known to belong to various entities, such as other mining pools, exchanges, large lightning nodes, merchants, etc. A supermajority of which are monitored with explicit permission and confirmation/coordination. ????QUICK FACT: All major mining pools I monitor are currently running some variant of Bitcoin Core v30 or v31 (except OCEAN). Expanding on that, most have updated their nodes since the proliferation of BIP110’s release, even since the release of Knots 29.3. Additionally, it is known that many mining pools run modified versions of their node software to facilitate various requirements of their specific infrastructure. Such changes would need to be ported to a BIP110 compatible client, tested, evaluated, and deployed ahead of time. I currently see no evidence that this is the case currently. As far as I can tell, the pools are aware but ignoring. “But Jason! Miners don’t determine consensus! Nodes do! Otherwise they’ll just cancel halvings!” This is one of the funniest and most ridiculous arguments I’ve heard from the pro-BIP110 crowd. Comparing a consensus change that can be unilaterally enforced upon the network by miners and accepted by 100% of existing nodes (a soft fork), with a hard fork which no existing node will accept… is disingenuous at best. Tightening rules (like BIP110): Soft fork, can be enforced by miners if they choose to do so. Loosening rules (like canceling a halving): Hard fork, can not be enforced by miners without effectively 100% buy-in from the entire network……. Which isn’t likely to happen. Comparing the two is, bluntly, just stupid. “But Jason! If you don’t upgrade to the latest consensus rules, you’re insecure! You’ll lose funds! You’ll mine invalid blocks! You’ll [insert additional hyperbole here]!” This would be true of a consensus change that has, well, consensus. While BIP110 has made a valiant effort to gain that consensus, it has yet to have any measurable majority at what is now arguably the 11th hour. Not in nodes, not in hashrate, not in the social layers (consensus.health has a cool visual there where you&#39;ll find me in the middle). If somehow BIP110 gains 51%+ of the network hashrate on/before block 961632… then, alright. It’s enforced, since as a soft fork a majority of miners can unilaterally enforce it in the absence of a fully adopted URSF (effectively a misnomer, as this would kind of be a hard fork). “But Jason! It can’t gain consensus by already having consensus! You have to give it a chance!” Firstly… no I don’t, even though I have. Second, it’s a rushed proposal that never had the time to even try and gain real consensus. It’s been 7 months since the release of the first BIP110 client. There’s ~3 weeks to go before “mandatory” signaling starts as of now (less by the time you read this). 90% of the time available has passed with no change in overall sentiment from any relevant players. If it hasn’t gained sufficient adoption in the past 7 months, it’s not likely to do so in the next 3 weeks. &quot;But Jason! CSAM! CSAM! Pedophiles! CSAM!&quot; I&#39;ll be the first to say, even I personally overstated the risk here early on when Core proposed its OP_RETURN change. I personally expected something particularly egregious to hit the chain almost immediately, and to the best of my knowledge that&#39;s not yet happened. Could it still happen? Yeah, I suppose. But considering from a technical perspective, byte-for-byte the same contiguous arbitrary data can provably end up stored in the current chain or the BIP-110 chain without much issue... this particular argument for BIP-110 falls pretty flat to me at this point. Do I want CSAM in the chain? Of course not. Am I a pedophile if I don&#39;t support BIP110? Also not. ... I could continue to go on and on and on, but I&#39;ll stop here. I&#39;ve wasted enough time on this. I&#39;m sure I&#39;ve done plenty to annoy both sides of the BIP110 debate at this point, as I don&#39;t adopt either stance. I&#39;m sure I&#39;ll catch flack from all angles simply for daring to speak my mind on it. Overall, I mostly think it was silly to approach addressing a real problem (the OP_RETURN default change in Bitcoin Core) with the maximum anti-spam manifesto based soft fork proposal... which provably cannot stop spam, arbitrary data, etc. ????‍♂️ (Yes, I know, proponents will claim it&#39;s not about spam... and will also make semantic arguments that it does stop data as well... neither of which appears to be correct.) I&#39;ll close with the concession that I could be wrong. I&#39;m not Nostradamus, and I can&#39;t accurately predict the outcome with 100% certainty. I can only go by what the data tells me, and so I give BIP110&#39;s success less than a 5% chance of actually succeeding... and I consider that generous. You can take my opinions on this however you wish, but I highly recommend you don&#39;t discount the actual data points, remain vigilant, and do what&#39;s best for you and your mining revenue. Don&#39;t be gaslit by either side of the debate, and make your own decisions.

Here's how it works.</title><description><![CDATA[There&#39;s a question nobody in the AI industry has properly answered: how do AI agents pay for things? Credit cards require human identity. Banks require passports. None of that works for software making thousands of micropayments per hour autonomously. Lightning Labs released lightning-agent-tools in February 2026, seven composable modules that give AI agents everything they need to operate natively on Lightning. The core of it is L402 plus lnget: an AI agent hits an API, the server responds with HTTP 402 &quot;Payment Required&quot; plus a Lightning invoice, lnget automatically pays the invoice, receives a macaroon credential, retries the request. Total time under one second. Total human involvement: zero. The full toolkit includes remote key isolation with keys on a separate signer machine, scoped macaroons for spend limits per agent, Aperture to turn any API into a pay-per-use service, and MCP support for Claude, GPT, and custom frameworks. Why Bitcoin and not stablecoins? Transactions on Inferior Centralized Altcoin Chains cost cents to dollars, unviable for micropayments. A Lightning payment for 1 sat costs a fraction of a sat. And no one can freeze your sats. For node runners: AI agent traffic means more routing opportunities and demand for liquidity. Your node becomes infrastructure for the machine economy.

Full breakdown of what the numbers actually show.</title><description><![CDATA[Most coverage treats ETF flows and Lightning usage as separate stories. Put them side by side and something interesting shows up. ETF flows in the last three weeks: a ten day outflow streak that drained 2.73 billion dollars in late June, then a reversal on July 2 with 221 to 223.5 million coming back in, then 510 million across three sessions with BlackRock&#39;s IBIT leading, then a fresh 424.66 million in outflows on July 13. Year to date net outflows still sit around 5.4 billion, essentially unmoved by the July bounce. Meanwhile Lightning Network volume is up 266 percent year over year despite public channel count declining. Average transaction value has nearly doubled to around 223 dollars. Merchant adoption of Lightning payments reached 15 percent of Bitcoin transactions by mid 2024 and kept climbing through 2025. The interesting part is that these two trends look increasingly disconnected. ETF flows are macro driven, tracking dollar strength and Fed policy on a day to day basis. Lightning volume growth looks adoption driven, growing regardless of what price is doing. That is arguably a healthier signal than previous cycles where everything correlated with speculation. There is also a consolidation trend worth watching. Average channels per node dropped roughly 30 percent between 2020 and 2024, meaning the network is routing through fewer, more concentrated hubs rather than a wide peer mesh.

Hyperliquid Is Now the 2nd Largest Perpetuals Exchange By OI</title><description><![CDATA[ On top of breaking into the top 10 crypto rankings by market cap, Hyperliquid&#39;s Open Interest hit $9.3B on July 1, 2026, surpassing Bybit, MEXC, Gate, and other major CEXs to become the second-largest perp exchange by OI, behind only Binance ($22.1B). A primer for those unfamiliar with Open Interest (OI): it is the total number of outstanding derivative contracts that have not yet been settled or closed. For the perps space, OI is the equivalent of Total Value Locked (TVL) in DeFi it basically shows how much capital is actually live and trading. Besides HIP-3&#39;s constant OI records, HYPE also experienced a trend shift with stocks perps tripling its share of HIP-3 trading volume to 47%, with commodities declining to 21%. This is from our Q2 2026 crypto industry report ,more charts and breakdowns on Hyperliquid, HYPE, and the rest of the market in the full writeup if anyone&#39;s interested. writeup: https://www.coingecko.com/research/publications/2026-q2-crypto-report &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/khai0001 [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/did-you-know-hyperliquid-is-now-the-2nd-largest-perpetuals-exchange-by-oi</link><guid>872144</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Did You Know?

Could anyone more knowledgeable on the topic share their thoughts and explain what is happening in the simplest terms possible? What are the potential consequences of either outcome, and what is the root cause of the conflict?

They involved someone being convinced to act, often by a person posing as support, security, or a helpful stranger. In one of the biggest cases on record, the attacker posed as wallet support and talked the victim into handing over their wallet backup. Hundreds of millions gone, zero code broken. A few habits that hold for any wallet: - Real support will not ask you to move funds, confirm a transaction, or share a recovery phrase to fix a problem. - Slow down when a message creates urgency. That pressure is the attack. - Verify through the official app yourself instead of any link someone sends you. - Treat unsolicited help with suspicion, especially right after you post about a wallet issue anywhere public.

They also said bitcoin futures flows look more positive, which usually hints more at institutional activity than retail just panic-clicking buy and sell. So yeah, spot ETF outflows look ugly on the surface, but under the hood, some bigger players might still be positioning. I’m still watching flows, still holding, and keeping the mining side active through OneMiners instead of letting every ETF headline cook my brain.

Trying to decide the best way to use it. Options I&#39;m weighing: Put most/all of it toward catching up my TFSA so I max out the annual limit before the tax year ends Put most/all of it into Bitcoin instead Some kind of 50/50 split For context if you&#39;re not familiar with TFSAs, it&#39;s the SA equivalent of a Roth IRA. You get an annual contribution limit (currently R46k) and a lifetime cap (R500k), and anything inside grows completely tax-free. But unlike Bitcoin, unused room in a given tax year is gone for good, you don&#39;t carry it forward. I&#39;m posting here specifically instead of a general investing sub because I feel like Bitcoiners tend to be a bit more balanced on this. Most of you are bullish on BTC but still hold ETFs/index funds too, whereas the generic investing subs tend to have zero exposure to Bitcoin at all and will just tell me to dump everything into index funds without engaging with the BTC side of the question. So, genuinely asking: if you were bullish on BTC long term but also had tax advantaged room expiring, how would you actually split a windfall like this? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/ArugulaPotential366 [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/tfsa-catch-up-vs-bitcoin-how-would-you-split-a-bonus</link><guid>872094</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>TFSA catch-up vs. Bitcoin — how would you split a bonus?</dc:text></item><item><title>Daily General Discussion July 17, 2026</title><description><![CDATA[Welcome to the Daily General Discussion on r/ethereum https://imgur.com/3y7vezP Bookmarking this link will always bring you to the current daily: https://old.reddit.com/r/ethereum/about/sticky/?num=2 Please use this thread to discuss Ethereum topics, news, events, and even price!

Individual withdrawal limits are set to $1,500 and deposit limits are $3500, starting August 15th. https://x.com/xenumonero/status/2076807666731520248 I personally confirmed this with Kraken Support on Twitter as well. How are people feeling about this? I know there will be some who carry on as usual with the mantra that CEXs don&#39;t matter, but hypothetically if you carried a large monero balance (6 figures, etc)... you&#39;ve pretty much lost your liquidity. Monero can be used P2P to a certain extent... but for big purchases like a house? I imagine it&#39;s niche. Do you hold out and hope for DEXs like Thorchain or Serai? Do you derisk a bit before Aug 15th? Keep holding Monero without liquidity for awhile and hope for the cyberpunk P2P future? Is there a replacement that&#39;s feasible already I&#39;m unaware of? Overall I think it&#39;s a big negative to lose Kraken. However, I&#39;m curious how others think about it. It is also a bummer this is happening with the &quot;pro crypto White House&quot; in a country where we are &quot;free.&quot; Lastly I hope it is temporary but I doubt Kraken will roll this back... Anyway. Curious about your thoughts. Cheers.

Visa, one of the world’s largest payment processors, appears to be well on its way to adapting to this new paradigm. On Thursday, the company announced a new service to help its customers do the same. The Visa Stablecoin Platform is an internal system that lets banks and fintechs handle stablecoins, which are a form of cryptocurrency that are backed with reserves to maintain a 1-to-1 peg to the dollar, within their existing Visa payment and treasury workflows. Visa, which settles roughly $15 trillion in payments annually, already processes several billion dollars in stablecoin settlements and hopes to grow that by offering a simpler way for its network of about 15,000 financial institutions and more than 200 million merchants to use stablecoins. “It’s less about accessing stablecoins and more about how… this interoperate[s] with their treasury settlement, their money movement workflows, [and] their existing bank setups,” Rubail Birwadker Visa’s global head of growth, told Fortune.

My philosophical take</title><description><![CDATA[I&#39;ve been digging into the concept of Civic Bitcoin for a while and wanted to share a breakdown, because I think it&#39;s philosophically way more interesting than it looks at first glance. Quick heads-up: Civic Bitcoin is not a technical fork and not a new coin. It&#39;s a voluntary governance and usage layer on top of Bitcoin – the idea of treating the protocol as public infrastructure to be used collectively and for a purpose (mining and Lightning fee revenue flows into social causes instead of private profit). Why do I find this interesting? It reconciles two camps that usually just talk past each other On one side, the cypherpunk/libertarian crowd: money must be neutral and rules-based. On the other, the &quot;money must be democratically controlled&quot; crowd. Civic Bitcoin basically says: The neutrality of the protocol is a feature, not a bug – but what we do with it, we get to decide together. So: neutral base + a voluntary ethos on top. It&#39;s almost a Rawlsian split between the &quot;basic structure&quot; and &quot;what people pursue within it.&quot; Bitcoin as a commons (Ostrom would approve) Elinor Ostrom won the Nobel Prize for showing that common-pool resources need neither pure state nor pure market – self-organized rules can work. Civic Bitcoin applies this to a digital, non-rival good. The protocol = a digital commons. Transparency instead of trust All inflows/outflows on-chain and public. Philosophically neat, because trust is shifted away from people and toward verifiable procedures. Classic &quot;don&#39;t trust, verify,&quot; but applied to public-good funding. But – and this matters – there are real weaknesses: The governance paradox: The moment you say &quot;the community decides,&quot; all the old democracy problems come back – unequal participation, elite capture, tyranny of the majority. The neutrality you celebrate at the protocol level gets abandoned at the governance level. The incentive problem: Bitcoin runs economically on self-interest (mining profit). A model that redirects profit has to explain why people participate voluntarily. Free-rider problem, anyone? Scaling solidarity: Ostrom-style commons work best in small, clearly bounded groups. Whether this scales globally and anonymously is an open question. &quot;Social fork&quot; is rhetorically elegant but fragile: An ethos with no technical enforcement is only as strong as the voluntary commitment of its adherents. TL;DR: Civic Bitcoin is essentially a communitarian-republican superstructure built on a libertarian-neutral base. It&#39;s less a finished theory than a normative bet: that neutral infrastructure and deliberately democratic use don&#39;t have to be mutually exclusive. Whether it collapses in practice under the governance and incentive problems is the real million-sats question. What do you all think? Utopian idealism, or a realistic path to using Bitcoin for the common good? Anyone know of concrete projects already doing this? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/btcbrother [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/civic-bitcoin-a-social-fork-of-the-idea-of-money-my-philosophical-take</link><guid>871950</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Civic Bitcoin – a "social fork" of the idea of money?

The decision comes after social media users expressed fears that bad actors could make mischief at airports in order to collect a payout, and after popular airline-tracking service FlightAware said Kalshi could not use its data to resolve the contracts. Kalshi had planned to begin listing flight cancellation contracts on Wednesday, according to a regulatory filing, but a spokesperson on Thursday told Fortune that the company has opted not to go forward for now. Kalshi’s proposed contracts applied to airport-wide cancellations, not individual flights, and included detailed rules prohibiting insiders—including TSA agents and airport and union officials—from placing wagers. Nonetheless, skeptics seized on the news to warn that airport workers seeking a payoff might collude to cancel a flight, or that crooks could call in fake threats to shut down air travel. It’s unclear to what degree the concern over the Kalshi flight contracts was justified given the prohibition of wagers by insiders, and in light of stiff criminal penalties for threats or hoaxes directed at the airport industry.

This is wrong. Sure there is the automatic exchange of information between your tax residency and your bank account, however if you plan on becoming tax compliant through a voluntary tax disclosure while you are preparing your compliance documentation for the bank. Amongst the crypto community it is very normal for people to have not declared their taxes, especially if they started early. As back in 2011, most people were not treating it as a serious investment most did not know where it would be today. When you are introduced to a private bank by a trusted third party, the bank is comfortable with you getting your new tax residency documentation after your account is opened or if you are becoming tax compliant through a voluntary tax disclosure as long as you are about to or in the process of becoming tax compliant you can open and cash-out before the taxes are due. Since the automatic exchange of information era, Swiss banks require some form of tax conformity from clients. What&#39;s poorly understood is what &quot;conformity&quot; can mean in practice. At certain institutions and this depends heavily on the bank, the jurisdiction, and the specific facts it does not have to mean &quot;every past year already settled.&quot; It can mean the client is demonstrably in the process of becoming compliant: tax counsel engaged, a voluntary disclosure or regularization initiated, or a residency change properly sequenced, all with a paper trail. I&#39;ve seen onboarding with Swiss private banks happen in parallel with a disclosure or a change in tax residency. Many people choose more tax friendly jurisdictions such as Monaco or Dubai. I have written a post about obtaining residency in Monaco with crypto origin wealth (private banks help you obtain residency): https://www.reddit.com/r/Monaco/s/6Ey0AJ5P04 Remember that even fully compliant holders struggle here everyone knows the frozen-funds and closed-account stories from retail off-ramps (CEX to retail bank at large volumes). That&#39;s precisely why people go to private banks, and why they don&#39;t show up empty-handed. The approach that gets through compliance committee at the bank is a professionally prepared source-of-wealth file: chronological origin-of-wealth narrative, wallet lists with proof of control, independent forensic screening, surviving records with gaps explained, where relevant, a concrete, documented process for fixing a tax situation that isn&#39;t currently in order as opposed to a vague intention to sort it out someday.. Important note: this is not &quot;you don&#39;t need to pay tax,&quot; and it varies enormously by country and institution. None of it is tax, legal, or banking advice this situation requires actual advisers in the actual jurisdictions involved. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/alt-co [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/undeclared-gains-does-not-make-you-unbankable</link><guid>871711</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Undeclared gains does not make you unbankable</dc:text></item><item><title>Did anyone else receive dozens of Bitstamp emails this morning?</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/llikegiraffes [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/did-anyone-else-receive-dozens-of-bitstamp-emails-this-morning</link><guid>871712</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Did anyone else receive dozens of Bitstamp emails this morning?</dc:text></item><item><title>Is there a good source to get the bitcoin related news (no shitcoins and no other unrelated stuff)?</title><description><![CDATA[Watcher guru is full of unrelated spam (and shitcoin news).

Over the last year, they&#39;ve outcompeted many chains from the 2024/25 era and are still going strong. I&#39;ve made posts about Katana in the past. I work in web3 and this project is one of the most exciting I&#39;ve seen because of the design of the chain and the way emissions are structed. If you&#39;ve ever farmed an incentive program, you know the arc. Emissions turn on, TVL floods in, the APY looks unreal for six weeks, emissions taper, capital walks to whoever&#39;s paying more. Most chains are renting their liquidity and calling it growth. Katana does it differently. There where no VC-term deals to raise liquidity favorably. All revenue stayed on the chain from day 1 as Katana did a really great job of being opinated and owning the stack. On most chains, TVL is a cost. You pay for it. On Katana, TVL is the revenue. When you bridge an asset onto a normal chain it sits in a contract doing nothing. That&#39;s true almost everywhere. VaultBridge routes those bridged assets into yield strategies instead, so the deposits themselves earn. The chain takes revenue off that. That revenue funds chain-owned liquidity, meaning pools the chain owns outright and permanently, which cannot walk out because they were never rented. And it funds incentives, paid out of income rather than out of a printer. So the flywheel spins the right way. More TVL means more revenue, which means more owned liquidity and a bigger incentive budget, which means more TVL. On a normal chain that same loop runs in reverse: more TVL means a bigger incentive bill, which drains the treasury faster, which shortens the clock to the announcement. That&#39;s the difference between a chain that compounds and a chain that burns. Year one, by Katana&#39;s own published numbers: Day one: $250M+ bridged, 15 apps live including Morpho, Sushi, Spectra Aug 2025: $488k in revenue generated and distributed Oct 2025: Sushi passed $1B in spot volume on the chain Jan 2026: in-house quests platform, 6k+ users completing 5+ quests Mar 2026: KAT staking live, listed on Binance, Coinbase, OKX, Kraken, Upbit, Bithumb Mar 2026: acquired IDEX, the team that built the #1 DEX of 2018, relaunched as Katana Perps Apr 2026: Binance Earn and OKX Earn integrations, $600k+ in revenue from those alone Jun 2026: perps volume past $400M, three trading competitions, $155K+ USDC paid straight to traders Year one total: $4M+ in protocol revenue, 28M+ KAT compounded since TGE It also got stress tested twice, which is the part that gets skipped. It ran normally through 10/10 when plenty of things did not. It stayed liquid through the April crunch and serviced tens of millions in outflows without gating anybody. A chain that holds up while people are running for the door is a fundamentally different asset than one that only works when everything is green. And you can still farm right now. There are stablecoin vaults sitting in the 8-10% range, avKAT in the 50% range (pays to coordinate liquidity, expect to drop over time), and season quests, The thing I&#39;m actually watching in year two: KAT as a liquidity coordinator. You lock KAT, you get voting power, you point emissions at whatever part of the chain you think deserves liquidity. That&#39;s a ve model and you&#39;ve seen it on Curve and Aerodrome. The difference is those coordinate liquidity for one DEX. Katana&#39;s runs at the chain level. So the question stops being &quot;which pool gets emissions&quot; and becomes something closer to capital allocation. Lending markets, perps, yield venues, spot pools, all competing for the same liquidity, with token holders arbitrating between them. Right now it&#39;s mostly DEX pools, which is the boring version of this. The interesting version is a chain where holders are steering liquidity across every venue on the stack based on where it earns most. Nobody&#39;s really run that at chain scale. Watching it develop is genuinely the thing I&#39;m most curious about this year. My honest read is the gap between what&#39;s been built and what it&#39;s priced at is the widest of anything I hold. That either means the market is early or the market looked and disagreed. I lean early. I&#39;ve been wrong before. TL;DR: Katana recently turned 1. $4M+ protocol revenue, no VC, no presale, IDEX acquired and relaunched as perps, listed on every major CEX, survived 10/10 and the April crunch. It inverted TVL from a cost into a revenue source, which is why it has no expiry date while chains that bought their TVL are announcing pivots. Still farmable, stablecoin vaults in the 8-10% range from borrow interest plus incentives. We&#39;ve all watched chains rent TVL with emissions and die when the money ran out. Katana is the only one I can name that built the revenue engine first and never took the VC money that starts the clock. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/TimmyXBT [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/the-katana-blockchain-after-1-year-defi-can-still-be-safe-exciting</link><guid>871713</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>The Katana blockchain after 1 year - DeFi can still be safe &amp; exciting</dc:text></item><item><title>Feds Arrest Florida Man Over Video Game Malware That Stole $220K in Crypto - Decrypt</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/pappa4484 [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/feds-arrest-florida-man-over-video-game-malware-that-stole-220k-in-crypto-decrypt</link><guid>871707</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Feds Arrest Florida Man Over Video Game Malware That Stole $220K in Crypto - Decrypt</dc:text></item><item><title>Polymarket's Bitcoin Bets Were Rigged in the Final 10 Seconds</title><description><![CDATA[A small group of traders extracted $8.2 million from Polymarket’s five-minute bitcoin contracts by pushing the spot price on Binance just before settlement, researchers from Stanford University and Singapore Management University found. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Webclues_Infotech [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/polymarkets-bitcoin-bets-were-rigged-in-the-final-10-seconds</link><guid>871816</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Polymarket's Bitcoin Bets Were Rigged in the Final 10 Seconds</dc:text></item><item><title>Bitcoin Savings Grow More Appealing as Confidence in the Dollar Shifts</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/andix3 [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/bitcoin-savings-grow-more-appealing-as-confidence-in-the-dollar-shifts</link><guid>871703</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Bitcoin Savings Grow More Appealing as Confidence in the Dollar Shifts</dc:text></item><item><title>I built a completely serverless, zero-telemetry E2EE chat app using WebRTC and Double Ratchet. How can I improve the P2P stability?</title><description><![CDATA[Hey everyone, I wanted to share a project I&#39;ve been engineering called VAULT. The goal was to build a messaging hub that leaves absolutely zero footprint—no servers storing data, no emails, no phone numbers, and local identity generation. How the stack works: Messaging: Uses the Double Ratchet protocol for end-to-end encryption. Message routing and voice/video calls are handled entirely peer-to-peer (DTLS-SRTP) via WebRTC. Data Storage: Ephemeral by design. Messages have a 24-hour auto-decay window and live only in local storage. Integrations: I also integrated a non-custodial wallet infrastructure supporting Solana and EVM chains directly into the chat interface, using zk-SNARKs for private transaction rails and ERC-4337 for gasless payments so users don&#39;t need native tokens to transact. Because it&#39;s fully serverless, signaling is the trickiest part. I&#39;m currently looking for feedback on handling WebRTC STUN/TURN fallbacks more efficiently when both peers are behind symmetric NATs. I&#39;ll drop the project link/repo in the comments if anyone wants to check out the pre-release or look at the architecture! &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/mylifeasdisha [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/i-built-a-completely-serverless-zero-telemetry-e2ee-chat-app-using-webrtc-and-double-ratchet-how-can-i-improve-the-p2p-stability</link><guid>871706</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>I built a completely serverless, zero-telemetry E2EE chat app using WebRTC and Double Ratchet.

Sell and invest elsewhere or hold?</title><description><![CDATA[I&#39;m 31, married, no debt myself, stable job, and unexpectedly discovered I still own about 0.219 BTC (~$14,000 today). The backstory...In 2015 I bought about $117 worth of Bitcoin, sold part of it a few weeks later, and completely forgot about the remaining 0.219 BTC. Coinbase recently sent me an inactivity/unclaimed property notice, and when I logged in I discovered it&#39;s now worth around $14k. At one point the holding was worth roughly $27k, but it&#39;s currently around $14k. My financial situation: Age 31 Married No high-interest debt Thinking about starting a family in the next few years I honestly forgot this existed for more than a decade. If I sell, I&#39;d expect to owe capital gains taxes and net somewhere around $10k–11k after taxes. My Q: If this were you, would you: Keep the Bitcoin? Sell all of it and invest elsewhere? Sell part and keep part? And if you sold, where would you put the money? Broad index fund (VTI/VTSAX/VOO)? HYSA? CD?

What Now?</title><description><![CDATA[We&#39;ve been seeing a lot of questions come up regarding the email being sent out to crypto investors in Australia from the ATO. Just dropping some info below that can hopefully clear things up. If this post isn&#39;t supported feel free to remove. The ATO is emailing Australian taxpayers it believes bought or sold crypto after 1 July 2025. What the email means, how to check it&#39;s real, and the steps to respond. If you just opened an email from the Australian Taxation Office with a subject like &quot;What to do if you&#39;ve bought or sold crypto&quot;, take a breath. You&#39;re not in trouble. You&#39;re one of a very large group getting the same message, and it&#39;s fixable. Here&#39;s what it means and what to do about it. First: Is This Email Even Real? Before you act on anything, confirm the email is legitimate. The ATO&#39;s own message warns that scammers impersonate these communications, and a crypto tax prompt is exactly the kind of email a scammer loves to fake. A genuine ATO email will: Never include a link to a login page. The real ATO does not send you a link to sign in. Never ask for your confidential details by email, including your TFN, passwords or bank logins. Point you to search the ATO website yourself (using &quot;QC&quot; reference codes) rather than click through. If something feels off, don&#39;t click. Forward suspicious emails to [ReportScams@ato.gov.au](mailto:ReportScams@ato.gov.au), then get to myGov independently by typing the address in yourself. When in doubt, treat the email as a nudge to check your own records, not a reason to click anything. What The Email Actually Means The ATO runs a crypto asset data-matching program that collects identity and transaction data from Australian exchanges (it calls them &quot;designated service providers&quot;). It covers the 2014-15 through 2025-26 financial years and captures data on an estimated 700,000 to 1.2 million individuals and entities every year. So the ATO has records that suggest you bought or disposed of crypto. That doesn&#39;t mean it knows your full tax position, only that an exchange reported activity linked to you. This email is a prompt, sent because that data shows activity on or after 1 July 2025. Think of it as the polite tap on the shoulder before you lodge your FY2025-26 return. Respond correctly now and this is a non-event. Ignore it, lodge a return that doesn&#39;t line up with their data, and you invite a review. What You Need To Do The email points to three situations. Work out which apply to you, because most people hit more than one. If you held and disposed of crypto as an investment. Selling, swapping, gifting or spending crypto all count as disposals, and each one triggers capital gains tax. You report the net capital gain (or loss) in the CGT section of your return. Losses aren&#39;t just paperwork either: reporting them in the year they happen lets you offset gains now and carry the rest forward. If you earned income from crypto. Staking rewards and airdrops are ordinary income, taxed at their AUD value on the day you received them. These go in the &quot;Other income&quot; section, separate from your CGT. If you were carrying on a crypto business. Trading, mining or operating an exchange as a business gets reported as business income (gross income less deductible expenses), not CGT. It&#39;s a smaller group, and if it&#39;s you, a registered tax agent is worth the call. Whichever applies, keep your records for at least five years from the date you lodge. What To Do, Step By Step Confirm the email is real (see above). Don&#39;t click any login links. Pull your data together: every exchange account and wallet you&#39;ve used, plus transaction dates, types and AUD values. This is the part people underestimate. Categorise each transaction as a disposal (CGT), income (staking or airdrops), or a non-taxable event like a transfer between your own wallets. Make sure your figures are complete. Capture every exchange account and wallet so nothing is missing from your return. Any prefilled crypto data in myGov is a useful cross-check, but it won&#39;t be the full picture, so don&#39;t rely on it alone. Gaps between what you lodge and what an exchange reported are what trigger reviews. Lodge, or amend prior years if you&#39;re behind. Then keep your records. Steps 2 to 4 are where a manual spreadsheet falls apart across hundreds of trades. That&#39;s the exact job crypto tax software is built for: connect your accounts and it tracks cost base and AUD values automatically. What If I Haven&#39;t Reported Past Years? If you&#39;ve left crypto off past returns, this is the part worth getting right, because coming forward before the ATO contacts you directly changes what you&#39;ll pay. The ATO treats taxpayers who come forward voluntarily, before being contacted about a review or audit, far more generously. Under the ATO&#39;s rules on voluntary corrections, if you disclose a shortfall before the ATO tells you it&#39;s examining your affairs, the base penalty is reduced by 80%. Where that shortfall is under $1,000, the penalty is reduced to nil, and the general interest charge on what you owe can also be remitted. The practical path: amend the relevant prior-year returns to include the missed gains or income, gather your records, and pay any shortfall. If you&#39;re behind on several years or the numbers are large, a registered tax agent can manage the disclosure for you. This email is your window to fix it on the best possible terms. You Might Owe Less Than You Think The instinct after one of these emails is to assume a big bill. Often it&#39;s the reverse, because getting your reporting accurate tends to work in your favour. Depending on your circumstances: Losses can count. A rough few years in crypto may leave you with capital losses that can be offset against gains, but generally only if you report them. There&#39;s a 50% CGT discount. If you&#39;ve held crypto for more than 12 months, you may be eligible for a discount that can halve the taxable gain. Every disposal has a cost base. You&#39;re generally taxed on the gain rather than the full sale price, so what you originally paid comes off the top. Leave it out and you could overpay. People who report from memory tend to leave money on the table. People who reconcile properly often owe less than they expected. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/summ_app [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/i-got-an-email-from-the-ato-about-crypto-what-now</link><guid>871699</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>I Got An Email From The ATO About Crypto.

I would mostly look at the chart, funding, and where price was sitting around support or resistance. After this CPI move, I think that is harder to ignore. BTC pushed higher as inflation came in cooler and rate hike expectations dropped, so the trade was not just about a clean technical breakout. The macro data changed the risk appetite behind the move. For now I’m trying to adjust around that. If CPI or FOMC is coming up, I’d rather reduce size, avoid opening a fresh leveraged position right before the release, and wait until the first reaction settles. I was watching the BTC perp on bydfii during the move. It made me more aware of how quickly the setup can change after one data comes out. Are you also paying attention to these macro dates now? How does the data affect your strategies? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Choice_Employee_7739 [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/btc-seems-sensitive-to-macro-data</link><guid>871657</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>BTC seems sensitive to macro data</dc:text></item><item><title>OkoBot Malware Framework Injects Seed Phrase Phishing Into Ledger and Trezor Apps</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/1001001 [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/okobot-malware-framework-injects-seed-phrase-phishing-into-ledger-and-trezor-apps</link><guid>871603</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>OkoBot Malware Framework Injects Seed Phrase Phishing Into Ledger and Trezor Apps</dc:text></item><item><title>Help collecting money from the deceased’s account</title><description><![CDATA[In a bit of a hairy situation, my father recently passed and while collecting stuff for his estate we’ve discovered that he had assets with crypto.com.

Wasn’t Bitcoin supposed to be part of the anti-war movement? Early Bitcoin culture was not only about getting rich, ETFs, corporate treasuries, or governments building strategic reserves. Bitcoin was presented as a way to challenge the monetary system that makes endless war possible. The basic argument was simple: Governments can wage wars that voters would never support if they had to pay the full cost immediately through higher taxes. Instead, wars are financed through debt, monetary expansion, and inflation. The costs are spread across decades and hidden inside higher prices, interest payments, and a weaker currency. Bitcoin was supposed to change that equation. A fixed-supply, politically neutral form of money would theoretically make it harder for governments to create money, quietly expand debt, and pass the cost of war onto future generations. Bitcoin would not make war impossible. But it could make the cost of war more visible. Yet during the Iran war, much of Bitcoin culture seems strangely silent. The conversation is mostly about whether oil prices will push Bitcoin higher, whether governments will buy more Bitcoin, and whether war will become another bullish catalyst. That feels like a major cultural shift. Bitcoin began as an attempt to separate money from state power. Now parts of the movement seem more interested in getting Bitcoin adopted by the same governments, financial institutions, and military powers it was originally supposed to constrain. Maybe Bitcoin itself has not changed. The network remains neutral. But the culture around it has. So here is the uncomfortable question: Did Bitcoin fail as an anti-war movement—or did Bitcoiners simply stop caring about the anti-war part once the price started going up? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/elder-millennial5813 [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/whatever-happened-to-bitcoin-not-bombs</link><guid>871567</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Whatever Happened to “Bitcoin, Not Bombs”</dc:text></item><item><title>Kroll Claims Notification for Terraform Labs Bankruptcy Filing</title><description><![CDATA[Just received an email from Kroll (official) notifying me about the total losses incurred and whether I wanted to accept or deny (fight the amount they totaled).

Convening today in Washington, D.C. to build on the foundations laid during their September meeting in Berlin, Council members are highlighting a major expansion of blockchain-backed aid delivery in high-stakes environments. Most notably, according to UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, it has scaled its use of reloadable cards through HesabPay, the Algorand-powered payments platform, to support more than 625,000 refugee returnees and over 17,500 internally displaced people in Afghanistan, with more than $35 million in assistance. This operational milestone reflects the network&#39;s ability to support large-scale aid disbursement in a live deployment and provide secure, immediate financial empowerment in regions where traditional banking infrastructure is absent or limited. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/semanticweb [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/algorands-hesabpay-supports-over-600000-refugee-returnees-in-afghanistan-since-councils-berlin-meeting</link><guid>871465</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Algorand's HesabPay Supports Over 600,000 Refugee Returnees in Afghanistan Since Council's Berlin Meeting</dc:text></item><item><title>The case for sound money, and what we are building on it - Jeff Booth is launching a new venture called Orange Juice</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Fiach_Dubh [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/the-case-for-sound-money-and-what-we-are-building-on-it-jeff-booth-is-launching-a-new-venture-called-orange-juice</link><guid>871568</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>The case for sound money, and what we are building on it - Jeff Booth is launching a new venture called Orange Juice</dc:text></item><item><title>Who remembers this 8 year old banger</title><description><![CDATA[ Lemme hear your favorite bitcoin songs! &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Generationhodl [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/who-remembers-this-8-year-old-banger</link><guid>871422</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Who remembers this 8 year old banger</dc:text></item><item><title>The calm before the storm????????</title><description><![CDATA[ Bitcoin was having a great this year until one lightning strike hit the market. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Pretend_Analysis6787 [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/the-calm-before-the-storm</link><guid>871423</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>The calm before the storm????????</dc:text></item><item><title>Bitcoiners in a bearmarket be like..</title><description><![CDATA[ I&#39;m a toxic bitcoin maximalist but some reactions in the bear market are funny. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Generationhodl [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/bitcoiners-in-a-bearmarket-be-like</link><guid>871424</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Bitcoiners in a bearmarket be like..</dc:text></item><item><title>Has anyone found a swap platform that consistently delivers good rates?</title><description><![CDATA[I know rates can change from trade to trade, but after enough swaps you start noticing certain platforms giving better results more often than others.

The idea was a web-app and a mobile app where you add the wallet address you want to watch. Cointer checks the blockchain for you. When a watched address gets a deposit, you get a notification and a dashboard of activity/totals. No accounts, no passwords. Just a single personal key that ties everything together. This is aimed at people who receive donations via crypto, streamers, or people who want to watch their wallets. Of course, most wallets already have this feature, but this takes it to the next step. It allows you to be notified over mobile push notifications, ntfy, Discord, Slack, or just by email. Then, it compiles (up to 90 days) all transactions into a clean dashboard showing your totals for the last day, week, and month with a breakdown by watched addresses and assets. There is an activity page with a full history of deposits and pagination. I&#39;ve developed quite a few OSS projects and gotten sponsors from many hosting companies which is what allowed me to set this up for a beta. However, for this beta the amount of users I can support is quite small. There is no real catch here. Know that there is a 10 wallet and 10 notification channel limit and notifications are not always guaranteed. More info in the comments.

If it&#39;s inactive for over 30 days, I&#39;ll be closing it. It&#39;ll have auto-fees and rebalancing from my end. My plan is to giveaway roughly 10 channels over the next few days. If the channel is active, I&#39;ll increase it&#39;s size. This will be different than my past giveaways as I&#39;ll be opening it with my new node, focused on smaller channels (and as a test environment for me). My requirements to participate are that you have 2m capacity and 4 channels already (to prevent idle capacity on my end). I won&#39;t be duplicating channels I already have open, and if I opened one in my last giveaway I may not open a new one (due to lack of routing). -A *PS* My next post plans to be that long promised architecture post in the next few weeks - along with an update of the monitoring dashboard I&#39;ve been working on &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/AuthenticityBTC [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/free-lightning-channels-liquidity-giveaway</link><guid>871429</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Free Lightning Channels / Liquidity Giveaway</dc:text></item><item><title>Many people will be off by 25% again this cycle.</title><description><![CDATA[At the previous low of around 16K many were waiting on the side line, hoping for 12K, which is 25%.

I split them into a long-term position and grid bots for short term votality on bydfi. That feels like a smart decision when looking back now.

The changes introduce stricter oversight, including insider trading rules, enhanced disclosure requirements, and tougher penalties for non-compliance. The move comes as crypto adoption continues to grow across Japan and is widely viewed as a step toward aligning the country&#39;s regulatory framework with international standards. With implementation expected within the next year and full adoption targeted by fiscal year 2027, the reforms could boost investor confidence and support greater institutional participation in the crypto market. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Webclues_Infotech [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/cryptocurrencies-are-set-to-be-recognized-as-financial-assets-in-japan</link><guid>871337</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Cryptocurrencies are set to be recognized as financial assets in Japan</dc:text></item><item><title>VoskCoin toured a 70MW Bitcoin mining facility and showed what industrial mining actually looks like</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/absurdcriminality [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/voskcoin-toured-a-70mw-bitcoin-mining-facility-and-showed-what-industrial-mining-actually-looks-like</link><guid>871340</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>VoskCoin toured a 70MW Bitcoin mining facility and showed what industrial mining actually looks like</dc:text></item><item><title>Trading Tools</title><description><![CDATA[Not sure if anyone uses tools or AI to trade, but something I came across that seems like it’ll be beneficial for nubs and AI enthusiasts. https://x.com/swarmx\\\_402/status/2077021515325792645?s=20 &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Puzzleheaded-Ad-3850 [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/trading-tools</link><guid>871343</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Trading Tools</dc:text></item><item><title>Japan's upper house committee just approved the crypto-as-financial-instrument</title><description><![CDATA[ Japan upper house committee approved reclassifying crypto under the FIEA, the same law that governs stocks and bonds, moving it out of the payment services act. the full floor vote is still coming but with the LDP controlling both chambers it&#39;s expected to pass easily cabinet approved the draft in april, lower house passed it in june, and now this and once in effect, crypto tax drops from a progressive rate topping out near 55% to a flat 20%, though that piece runs on a separate timeline and doesn&#39;t kick in until 2028. the FIEA reclassification itself targets fiscal 2027 and clears the legal path for spot crypto ETFs on the TSE, with listings realistically landing in late 2027 or 2028 It also brings new insider trading bans, mandatory annual disclosures for issuers, and stiffer penalties for unlicensed operators, up to 10 years and ¥10M in fines versus the current 3 year max Japan has over 13 million crypto accounts and its high tax rate has long been blamed for weak trading volume relative to its tech adoption &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/ocean_protocol [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/japans-upper-house-committee-just-approved-the-crypto-as-financial-instrument</link><guid>871335</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Japan's upper house committee just approved the crypto-as-financial-instrument</dc:text></item><item><title>US turns stablecoin issuer Tether into a financial weapon against Iran, freezing nearly $500 million</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/GreedVault [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/us-turns-stablecoin-issuer-tether-into-a-financial-weapon-against-iran-freezing-nearly-500-million</link><guid>871334</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>US turns stablecoin issuer Tether into a financial weapon against Iran, freezing nearly $500 million</dc:text></item><item><title>Strike vs Finst: testing low-fee Bitcoin DCA in Europe</title><description><![CDATA[For years I’ve been reading positive things about Strike by Jack Mallers, especially because you can apparently buy Bitcoin with very low fees (and even fee-free options depending on how you use it). I’ve tried Strike on and off in the past with mixed results, but now I want to properly test it. I’m comparing it against Finst, a Dutch exchange that currently offers some of the lowest Bitcoin buying fees in Europe (around 0.15%). Over a long period of DCA, small fee differences can really add up. My Bitcoin journey started years ago on Coinbase. Looking back, the fees there were pretty painful, with large spreads and transaction costs. One thing I did like about Coinbase at the time was the occasional free crypto rewards, but eventually I moved on. After Coinbase, I switched to Bitvavo, which is one of Europe’s largest exchanges by trading volume. Their fees are around 0.25%, which was already a big improvement. Currently I use Finst, but because I keep seeing so many positive experiences with Strike, I decided to test it myself instead of just relying on other people’s opinions. I created a spreadsheet where I’ll compare my weekly DCA purchases. My setup: - €100 Bitcoin DCA every Friday - Compare Strike vs Finst - Track the actual amount of BTC received and the total costs My first purchase was last Friday (July 10). At the moment I received slightly less BTC on Strike compared to Finst, which is expected because of the higher costs/spread on the first transaction. But the interesting part will be how this develops over several weeks and months. One thing I already like about Strike: it’s Bitcoin-only. No altcoins, no distractions, just Bitcoin. I’ll keep updating this thread with the results. Curious to hear from others in Europe: what platform are you using for your Bitcoin DCA, and why? Disclaimers: Not sponsored by Strike, Finst, or anyone else. I’m just a Dutch guy who likes comparing fees a little too much. ???????? Bitcoin is risky. Only invest what you can afford to lose. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/BetterSeesaw [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/strike-vs-finst-testing-low-fee-bitcoin-dca-in-europe</link><guid>871426</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Strike vs Finst: testing low-fee Bitcoin DCA in Europe</dc:text></item><item><title>I built a automated stock solution - now I build one for Crypto ja</title><description><![CDATA[Hi everybody For the past years I’ve been heavy focused on the stock market as a Quant using technical/sentiment/news driven style. Focusing mainly on momentum. I have been a loyal HLOD’er for many years but feel the market is leaving the four year cycle and moving into stock structure territory. I am the owner of Shishin Research - which focuses on stocks. But I’ve decided to expand into Crypto. For now it’s only testing, SEO and setting up on my new site. But I am to cover a large array of topics and show how you can successfully build your own trading bot. What moving pieces you need, which ones work and which ones doesn’t. In the end I publish everything. In the past i have a solid track record in automating trading strategies, manual strategies and overall market knowledge from my professional time as a Quant. If you enjoy a site that will build the entire infrastructure in public over the next few months. Keep taps on Koryu. For now it’s just a basic sentiment/momentum board. But in a few months I will have built a solid ranking board with an automated bot trading whatever is listed. And yes. I know numbers and models - but not making websites. So thanks Claude. For now.

(Nice read)</title><description><![CDATA[Tony DiCarlo calls it the “money glitch”: Issue liabilities in a depreciating asset, hold an appreciating one, and let the spread do the work. Strategy is the clearest example. It raises capital through fixed dollar-denominated obligations and uses the proceeds to buy Bitcoin. Over time, the liability may become easier to service in real terms, while the Bitcoin backing it may grow in value. What makes the idea interesting is that it may not stop with Digital Asset Treasuries. The same principle could potentially extend to mortgages, insurance float, corporate debt and even sovereign reserves. It is not risk-free. The model still depends on Bitcoin performing over the medium to long term. But it raises a bigger question: Could Bitcoin adoption happen not just through more people buying it, but by being built into the financial products they already use? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/makingcryptoeasy [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/could-bitcoin-eventually-reduce-the-cost-of-mortgages-insurance-and-sovereign-debt-nice-read</link><guid>871427</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Could Bitcoin eventually reduce the cost of mortgages, insurance and sovereign debt?

Bitcoin does an incredible job of verifying ownership and transactions without trusting a third party. But when an application needs to know whether something happened in the real world, things get messy. For example: Was a package actually delivered? Did someone really visit a location? Was an inspection completed? Most systems seem to fall back to GPS, a centralized API or simply trusting whoever reports the data. Do you think this is something Bitcoin should stay completely out of, or is there room for protocols that verify real-world events while using Bitcoin purely as a settlement layer?

For example: Did someone actually visit a location? Was a delivery completed? Did an inspection really happen? Can an AI agent prove it interacted with the physical world? GPS alone isn&#39;t enough anymore, and centralized systems require trust. I&#39;ve been working on an open protocol called GeoProof that explores using multi-signal verification to generate cryptographically verifiable attestations for real-world events. The goal isn&#39;t to replace existing blockchains, but to provide a reusable verification layer that applications can integrate regardless of which chain they use. I&#39;d really appreciate feedback on whether this problem is worth solving and whether you think an open protocol is the right approach.

Genuinely lost track of what stage we&#39;re even at. Last I checked: Hack happened July 2024, ~$230M gone INR withdrawals opened in phases, then a chunk stayed frozen &quot;due to investigations&quot; Singapore court approved some restructuring scheme in Oct 2025 Trading resumed, some crypto withdrawals unlocked in stages Recovery tokens were supposed to cover 75-80% of balances But my account just sits there. No withdrawal option that actually works, no clear status update, re-KYC done and still nothing moving. Anyone actually gotten their money out recently? Is there a real timeline anywhere or are we all just supposed to keep waiting indefinitely?

One pool shows around $0.34, another around $0.92, and a very small pool shows around $0.968. My understanding is that each pool has its own liquidity range and reserves, so the displayed price can diverge when liquidity is fragmented. The smallest pools may also show extreme price movements even when very little capital is involved. Would arbitrage normally bring these prices back together, or can low liquidity and routing limitations leave the pools disconnected for a long time? Interested in hearing how experienced Uniswap LPs interpret this. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Actual-Ad2198 [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/why-can-the-same-token-pair-show-three-very-different-prices-on-uniswap-v3</link><guid>871142</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Why can the same token pair show three very different prices on Uniswap V3?</dc:text></item><item><title>Trump Urges Senate to Pass CLARITY Act as US Government Moves $288M in Bitcoin &amp; Ethereum</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/andix3 [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/trump-urges-senate-to-pass-clarity-act-as-us-government-moves-288m-in-bitcoin-ethereum</link><guid>871134</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Trump Urges Senate to Pass CLARITY Act as US Government Moves $288M in Bitcoin &amp; Ethereum</dc:text></item><item><title>Crypto ETF Inflows Rebound as the Fed Quietly Expands Liquidity</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/andix3 [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/crypto-etf-inflows-rebound-as-the-fed-quietly-expands-liquidity</link><guid>871138</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Crypto ETF Inflows Rebound as the Fed Quietly Expands Liquidity</dc:text></item><item><title>Why multi-billion dollar crypto networks are missing from Wikipedia</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/itsmeamirax [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/why-multi-billion-dollar-crypto-networks-are-missing-from-wikipedia</link><guid>871136</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Why multi-billion dollar crypto networks are missing from Wikipedia</dc:text></item><item><title>Bitcoin Feels Like 2022 Again, And That's Not a Bad Sign</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/JayW132 [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/bitcoin-feels-like-2022-again-and-thats-not-a-bad-sign</link><guid>871096</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Bitcoin Feels Like 2022 Again, And That's Not a Bad Sign</dc:text></item><item><title>Coinbase Opens Registration to Chinese Users</title><description><![CDATA[What benefits do you think this will bring to the development of cryptocurrency?

The people who bought at $1,000 had to endure years of media outlets calling it a dying fad. The people who bought at $10,000 had to hold through massive, soul-crushing 80% drops where everyone around them said &quot;I told you so.&quot; Bitcoin isn&#39;t just a stock or a ticker that goes up and down on a screen. It is a fundamental shift in how the world defines value. It is the first time in human history that we have a currency that cannot be printed into oblivion by a central entity. When you look back at today from five or ten years in the future, the current price won&#39;t look like a peak. It will look like a flat line at the very beginning of the chart. Stop staring at the 1-minute candles. Stop stressing over the daily noise. Zoom out. The best time to understand Bitcoin was ten years ago. The second-best time is right now.

Something lighthearted for a green day (let me have this we don&#39;t have many): Ethereum Foundation → Guinan. No command rank and no orders, just moral and spiritual guidance that the whole ship trusts above almost anyone&#39;s. It steers values, not operations. (Personally I think a retired Admiral Picard also works here). Ethlabs → the Enterprise&#39;s main computer. The core protocol and infrastructure substrate everything else runs on top of — foundational, always-on, invisible until it breaks. Not a crew member, but the layer that makes the crew possible. Ethereum Institutional → Counselor Troi (as ship&#39;s ambassador). It reads what the institutions actually need and coordinates first contact, handling engagement, education, and market intelligence. The empathic diplomat who bridges the ship to the wider civilization. EthSystems → Data and Geordi combined. Data takes the abstract institutional directive — private from the market, transparent to the regulator — and computes it into precise architecture, while Geordi engineers it into production systems that carry real financial activity. I forgot to ask about Etherealized. Maybe it&#39;s like Commander Riker in that First Officer exchange episode.

Many businesses, though, are still getting up to speed on how to integrate dollar-pegged tokens into customer payments, and London-based startup Velocity—which on Tuesday announced a $38 million Series A funding round—is one of the firms helping them to do so. “These are companies that do not understand that they can be using stablecoins to solve their problems. Those are the people we are going for,” said Rob Hadick, a general partner at the venture capital firm Dragonfly, which has carved out a niche in backing firms that facilitate fiat-to-bridge transactions. Dragonfly and Firstmark led Velocity’s Series A round, which also included investments from Coinbase, Capital One Ventures, QED Investors, Activant Capital, Ripple, and Wintermute. Eric Queathem, founder and CEO of Velocity, declined to specify at what valuation his startup raised its most recent stash of capital. Founded in 2025, Velocity aims to tap into the industry’s rapid expansion, with its name pointing to its goal of making payments faster through stablecoins. The company declined to name specific clients but said its customers include a mix of global merchants, payment providers, fintechs, and financial institutions.

I will never use Binance again for any reason and honestly I feel stupid and ashamed that I ever used it to begin with. I just wanted to share with you all, because I&#39;m happy and relieved the nightmare is over. For 4 months I was constantly being looped around by AI &quot;support agents&quot;. They threw many bogus allegations at me like &quot;you have transacted with fraudulent addresses&quot; (I didn&#39;t) and &quot;your funds come from sources outside our terms of use&quot; (they don&#39;t). I have literally hundreds of pages of chat &amp; email correspondence with them. They kept trying to bait me into saying something that might be self-incriminating. I suffered psychological harm and at one point got close to harming myself in a major way. In the end I contacted basically every crypto lawyer I could find in my town and threatened Binance legally. Even after they unfroze my account, pretty much every withdrawal I tried to make after that, even to my OWN FUCKING WALLET, some bogus alert or other came up, and I went through a number of other shorter account freezes. I&#39;m probably going to die a few years early because of the emotional toll. My supposed &quot;crime&quot;? Sending $40 to a known, trusted friend. Can&#39;t have that now, can we? And based on what I&#39;ve read, I&#39;m probably one of the lucky ones. I know someone who has had 6 figures in equivalent USD locked up for a year for sending $1.2 to the &#39;wrong&#39; address. Another person has had their account frozen for 3 years. Just wanted to share with you all.

There are at least five key stakeholders - miners, users, developers, market, and exchanges. All the stakeholders have at least two senior partners who express forms of control. From above, the relationship would look like five players linking arms together, heads in, while collaborating in mutually supportive, competitive, and highly incentivized encounters. With Bitcoin, there is no trusted third party, instead, the relationship is divided at least five ways. This decentralizes trust, which distributes risk. The system is also constructed whereby the players have direct mechanisms for punishment as well as reward constrained to behaviour exhibited. Collaborative behavior is rewarded with mutual security while anti-social behaviour is discouraged through collective financial penalties. At the end of the day, the one thing we all have in common is the desire for the system to facilitate greater feats of cooperation. (That’s number go up). &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/HappyOaks21 [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/bitcoin-gametheory</link><guid>870916</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Bitcoin Gametheory</dc:text></item><item><title>Incase you didn't know, you can dca while waiting at the bottom because</title><description><![CDATA[because you will never know about when is the bottom, but i think personally from previous cycle, this is a very cheap buying region! hodling loss, and keep dca and also preparing lump sump when it dips more is a wise move but again there&#39;s always 50/50 chance so just do it lmao &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/unthocks [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/incase-you-didnt-know-you-can-dca-while-waiting-at-the-bottom-because</link><guid>870917</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Incase you didn't know, you can dca while waiting at the bottom because</dc:text></item><item><title>SBI VC Trade Launches Japan’s First Trust-Based Yen Stablecoin Lending Service with 3% Promotional Yield</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/norbertgehrke [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/sbi-vc-trade-launches-japans-first-trust-based-yen-stablecoin-lending-service-with-3-promotional-yield</link><guid>870846</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>SBI VC Trade Launches Japan’s First Trust-Based Yen Stablecoin Lending Service with 3% Promotional Yield</dc:text></item><item><title>Help me understand this whole BIP-110 saga</title><description><![CDATA[so, I&#39;ve been following this BIP-110 vs Core saga for some time now, and I feel like I understand very well why BIP-110 is being proposed. they don&#39;t want bitcoin Core to allow the use of bitcoin as a cloud storage server.

Geopolitics, some ETF flows going the other way for a bit, and BTC just sitting lower after coming off higher levels. It’s easy to see why a lot of people are cautious or outright bearish on the near term. What’s interesting though is the RSI on the daily. It’s been moving with price lower but now looks like it’s starting to curl back up. Not screaming reversal yet, but the momentum is shifting off those lower levels in a way that’s caught my eye. I’ve seen setups like this enough times to know they usually feel the worst right when the early signs show up. The core reasons I’m still bullish on Bitcoin long term haven’t changed. Institutional access through ETFs is still there, adoption keeps creeping forward, and we’re still dealing with the supply side from previous halvings. Buying more in the low 60s feels like one of those spots that could look pretty good twelve months from now when we’re looking back. I’m personally adding on these dips instead of waiting for everything to line up perfectly. Could still chop or retest support, that’s always possible. But sitting in cash waiting for the all-clear has cost me opportunities before.What are you guys seeing with the RSI or your own setups right now? Adding, holding, or waiting for more confirmation? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/FreedomFund_Goatechs [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/this-is-one-of-those-pivotal-moments-everything-looks-bearish-but-rsi-is-flipping-and-getting-a-64k-bitcoin-is-going-to-look-genius-a-year-from-now</link><guid>870812</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>This is one of those pivotal moments - everything looks bearish, but RSI is flipping and getting a 64k bitcoin is going to look genius a year from now</dc:text></item><item><title>US Government Transfers $288M in Bitcoin and Ether to Coinbase Prime From Multiple Seized Wallets</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Resident_Caramel763 [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/us-government-transfers-288m-in-bitcoin-and-ether-to-coinbase-prime-from-multiple-seized-wallets</link><guid>870843</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>US Government Transfers $288M in Bitcoin and Ether to Coinbase Prime From Multiple Seized Wallets</dc:text></item><item><title>In 10 years, the hardest part of Bitcoin will not be buying it. It will be explaining why you didn’t.</title><description><![CDATA[The hardest part of Bitcoin isn&#39;t buying it. It&#39;s surviving the moment you were right too early. Everyone wants to buy Bitcoin when the future looks obvious. That is the problem. The greatest opportunities in every cycle usually appear when the evidence is still incomplete, the chart looks ugly, and the majority has a reasonable explanation for why waiting is smarter. Human beings are not bad at recognizing value. We are bad at recognizing value before consensus approves it. The market is not designed to test your intelligence. It tests your patience, your conviction, and your ability to act without emotional permission. Maybe the biggest mistake isn&#39;t buying too early. Maybe it&#39;s waiting until nobody can convince you anymore that you&#39;re wrong. Ten years from now, what do you think people will regret more: buying Bitcoin too early, or never buying because they were waiting for the perfect moment? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/No-Net3991 [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/in-10-years-the-hardest-part-of-bitcoin-will-not-be-buying-it-it-will-be-explaining-why-you-didnt</link><guid>870805</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>In 10 years, the hardest part of Bitcoin will not be buying it.

From western countries and their local tax policy moves, to conflict in eastern europe or the middle east, to local policy decisions in asia. But bitcoin is so much larger than any localised narratives, bitcoin is not a local stock market. All that news is nothing but noise. Bitcoin only cares about aggregate liquidty, and when it comes to aggregate liquidity only one question matters, when the next global &quot;event&quot; hits will global central banks keep rates high and allow a recession to take hold or will they drop rates and stimulate the global economy with money printing? The answer is simple, since 2008 the worlds central banks and governments have proven unequivocally that their only response to any macro event or crisis will be to cut rates and stimulate because the alternative would smash the global financial system. The next time central banks and governments face a global crisis they will cut rates and stimulate, and thats all we need to know because easy money policy is what fuels bitcoins adoption and exponential price growth. So many commentators are expecting a business cycle recession that will crash markets but since 2008 global central bank policy has been stimulus at all costs to protect the traditional financial system. Central banks wont allow a global recession, at the first sign of any recession or crisis they will stimulate and that means scarce assets will be the best protection from easy money policy. So forget the local news headlines, ignore any talk of a recession, and just understand that bitcoin will benefit from easy money policy during any potential global crisis. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/slvbtc [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/bitcoin-benefits-no-matter-what-happens</link><guid>870803</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Bitcoin benefits no matter what happens</dc:text></item><item><title>U.S. government moves $8.8M of Bitcoin that Trump said would never sell</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/kirtash93 [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/us-government-moves-88m-of-bitcoin-that-trump-said-would-never-sell</link><guid>870842</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>U.S. government moves $8.8M of Bitcoin that Trump said would never sell</dc:text></item><item><title>Trump invested crypto gains in stocks and bonds, filings show</title><description><![CDATA[&#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Lisaismyfav [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/trump-invested-crypto-gains-in-stocks-and-bonds-filings-show</link><guid>870684</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Trump invested crypto gains in stocks and bonds, filings show</dc:text></item><item><title>TIL: Some tokens from Drift Protocol hack are claimable</title><description><![CDATA[Drift Protocol has opened up for some of the insurance claims from the hack that happened a while back.

So here&#39;s all I know about this agreement: What happened? Singularity Future Technology was accused of misleading investors about its shift from a logistics company into a crypto hardware business, including claims about mining equipment, partnerships, and business operations. After reports questioned these claims, $SGLY dropped more than 90%, and investors filed a lawsuit. Now the company has agreed to settle $3 million with investors for their losses. Who can claim this settlement? If you bought $SGLY shares between 2021 and 2023, you may be eligible to participate, even if you sold your shares How long does the payout process take? It typically takes 4 to 9 months after the claim deadline for payouts to be processed, depending on the court and settlement administration.

[Master's research]</title><description><![CDATA[Hi all, I&#39;m conducting research for my Master&#39;s thesis on whether a fixed, algorithmically-determined money supply could function as a viable monetary system. The research examines the trade-offs between rule-based credibility (H1) and macroeconomic risks (deflation, financial stability, policy flexibility). I&#39;m looking for respondents with economic or finance background to complete a 10 minute survey that assesses: Whether algorithmic rule-binding increases monetary credibility Deflation mechanics in a fixed-money-supply economy Crisis stabilization mechanisms (or lack thereof) Overall viability as a practical alternative to Fiat systems The survey is anonymous, GDPR-compliant, and will contribute to the broader academic debate about alternative monetary architectures. If you have professional experience in economics, finance, or related fields and are interested in this question—your informed perspective would be valuable. → Survey: https://www.soscisurvey.de/MA544116/ Im aware that this is not necessarily the optimal place to look for answers, but it should be neutral regardless.

The real headache is the off-ramp logistics. It feels like traditional commercial banks have completely tightened their compliance algorithms lately, and trying to pull a decent chunk of money out of an exchange is a fast track to getting your account frozen or hit with endless source of funds requests. I am honestly considering shifting away from digital wires entirely for my profit-taking strategy. I was looking into alternative cash settlement networks where you swap your assets and they just have a courier bring physical paper cash straight to your door or send it via mail. Bypassing the banking system entirely sounds like a perfect solution for privacy, but I am super skeptical about how it plays out in real life. If a courier turns up on your porch with an envelope of paper bills, how do you even verify everything is totally legit before they walk away? Has anyone here actually tried a physical cash delivery method to protect their trading profits from bank lockdowns, or is the physical security aspect way too risky to mess with compared to traditional methods? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Vane1st [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/what-is-your-actual-strategy-for-taking-profits-when-legacy-banks-flag-everything</link><guid>870688</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>What is your actual strategy for taking profits when legacy banks flag everything?</dc:text></item><item><title>How does this bear market stack up to cycles prior?</title><description><![CDATA[I&#39;ve been DCA in since October of 2024 but have recently allotted more to my DCA figure during this bear market.

I will cut to the chase and let you guys know how this conclusion was drawn. For this, I analyzed the past 7 bear markets in the last 10 years (including this one), and studied how long it takes for the current price of BTC to exceed the 200D moving average during bear markets (this is the signal for the end of the bear market). From each bear market’s market bottom, it historically takes 65 to 166 days for BTC to recover. Our last bottom was $58K back on June 30, 2026. Assuming BTC doesn&#39;t crash any lower than $58K in this bear cycle, at an average between 65 and 166 days, the end of the bear market would be November 5, 2026. At the longest recorded recovery time of 166 days, the end would be December 26, 2026. While past performance is not indicative of future performance, current data also shows that this bear market is not that bad relatively speaking, as compared to previous bears such as the most recent 2022 FTX crash where BTC declined 76.7% from its highs compared to our current bear market where BTC only declined 51.2% from its highs.

I’m all about the stock market and other forms of “investing” but I am knowledgeable enough on the subject as crypto is the reason my brother bought a house lmfao. Here’s the thing, I know bitcoin uses hashing such as SHA-256 and it uses the signature system ECDSA (correct me if I’m wrong). Some may argue that quantum’s increasing power (through the years) is will make breaking the hash easier, but idk how long it’ll be before it’s near instant. However, wouldn’t the private keys be the real issue? I talk to my brother about this but his cope is crypto will develop stronger hashes with time. But wouldn’t that leave existing cryptocurrencies in shambles as time passes? I’m no expert, but wouldn’t the advancement of these technologies make Bitcoin obsolete later on? I appreciate all opinions just insightful. I find this a bit fascinating for someone who doesn’t invest in Crypto lol. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/69philosopher [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/will-quantum-computings-advancement-make-bitcoin-obsolete</link><guid>870455</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Will quantum computing’s advancement make bitcoin obsolete?</dc:text></item><item><title>Saylor posted "Bitcoin has no spam problem" and 65% of the replies tore into him.</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Bcom_Mod [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/saylor-posted-bitcoin-has-no-spam-problem-and-65-of-the-replies-tore-into-him</link><guid>870453</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Saylor posted "Bitcoin has no spam problem" and 65% of the replies tore into him.</dc:text></item><item><title>The US just funded its first Fannie Mae-backed mortgage where the collateral is Bitcoin.

I almost tossed it, but for some reason decided to boot it up. After 20 minutes of watching that Windows Vista loading circle, I noticed a folder labeled &#39;Important Stuff&#39; with a text document inside. The document contained what I now know is a private key for a Bitcoin wallet, along with a note I&#39;d written to myself: &#39;Don&#39;t lose this $100 worth of magic internet money.&#39; At first, I didn&#39;t think much of it. But something made me download Electrum and import that key. When the blockchain finished syncing and I saw the balance, my hands started shaking. It&#39;s still there. All 0.1 BTC. At today&#39;s prices, that&#39;s over $6k. But here&#39;s the thing, I can&#39;t move it. Why? I&#39;m starting to think there&#39;s something wrong with the key format or maybe the wallet structure has changed too much since 2013. Has anyone ever experienced this? The irony is killing me, I find my lost treasure only to discover I can&#39;t open the chest.

What DAC8 actually requires DAC8 (Directive (EU) 2023/2226, adopted by the EU Council in 2023) took effect January 1, 2026. It requires &quot;crypto-asset service providers&quot;, the exchanges most Bitcoin holders use to buy, sell, or cash out, to collect each customer&#39;s identity and transaction history and report it annually to their national tax authority. That data is then automatically exchanged with tax authorities in other EU member states, and eventually with non-EU countries that adopt the OECD&#39;s parallel Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF). Worth being precise here: DAC8 does not regulate self-custody or on-chain activity directly. It&#39;s a reporting obligation on regulated exchanges. But if you&#39;ve ever bought or sold Bitcoin through an EU-licensed exchange, your identity is now tied, inside a government database, to your transaction history. Key dates DAC8 in force: January 1, 2026 French decree signed: December 19, 2025 (Décret n° 2025-1276) Summary petition filed: February 24, 2026, followed by a more detailed legal brief First reports (covering 2026 activity) due: before September 30, 2027, after which automatic cross-border data exchange begins The legal argument Bull Bitcoin&#39;s case rests on Article 52 of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights, arguing that blanket, suspicionless collection of financial data fails the necessity-and-proportionality test. One procedural limit worth flagging: the Conseil d&#39;État can only annul the French decree, not the EU directive itself — though it could refer a question to the Court of Justice of the European Union if it finds a genuine EU-law interpretation issue. Bull Bitcoin has said it&#39;s prepared to escalate to the CJEU and France&#39;s Constitutional Council if this fails. The physical-security angle The petition also raises a safety argument. France&#39;s Interior Minister, Laurent Nuñez, said on June 30, 2026, that authorities have recorded 77 cases of kidnapping, extortion, or attempted extortion linked to the crypto sector since the start of 2026, up from 45 for all of 2025. That count comes from the ministry itself, independent of Bull Bitcoin&#39;s filing. Bull Bitcoin argues that centralizing identity-linked financial data raises the odds that a future breach could help criminals locate holders; that specific causal chain hasn&#39;t been established by French authorities, so treat it as the plaintiff&#39;s argument, not a proven fact. What to watch next A ruling on the merits isn&#39;t expected for one to two years. Worth watching: whether the Conseil d&#39;État refers the case to the CJEU, and whether other EU member states see similar challenges filed. This is the first formal legal test of DAC8 anywhere in the EU, so the outcome (however far off) will matter well beyond France.

I have probably 5,000 shares of XRP and $2000 split between SOL, LINK, HBAR, ETH, BTC, XLM, and flare. The more I read this sub the more XRP sounds like a scam. My average cost is $1.62, should I hold and hope it reclaims ATH after a catalyst like the clarity act or dump it now? I&#39;m holding for long term growth/retirement, and I don&#39;t understand this field enough to know what to invest in long term. XRP has lots of utility so I thought it&#39;d be good, but BTC and ETH seem better despite btc having no real world use case and ETH being outdated. Any advice? Is there a real argument for btc and eth growing over the coming decades? EDIT: I&#39;ve seen enough people tell me to do my research, I will no longer engage in comments pointing out my errors without offering any explanation or assistance. You people help give crypto a bad name, this sub has been very unhelpful to someone starting out.

Statistically most of us will never hit a block, and the actual fun lives in the moments nobody celebrates: your best share ever, the near miss at 2 AM that was 90% of a block, surviving your first year of mining. So I shipped an achievements system for miners on my pool: 26 badges computed live from your real mining stats. Nothing to sign up for, no account, your payout address just earns them by mining. Best-share ladder from Copper to Obsidian, near-miss badges for the heartbreakers, block finder tiers, luck badges (block under 10% effort), loyalty and fleet milestones. https://preview.redd.it/hlpuc2zqftch1.png?width=1324&amp;format=png&amp;auto=webp&amp;s=f7d73da3578280899cde5101ede8f39f28fc1b42 Check it out here: https://mkpool.com/btc/address/bc1q8exwdf3ex8htykd0nzmqpansf2j4qv7c7mqswr/achievements The detail I&#39;m most happy with: Steam-style rarity on every badge. &quot;5% of miners have this&quot; next to Golden Nonce hits different when you&#39;re one of them. Nobody holds the top share tier yet on any coin. Every unlock has a live share card you can drop in a forum signature or paste in Discord/Telegram and it unfurls with your actual stats. Feedback welcome, especially ideas for achievements that don&#39;t need any signup to work.

Your feedback led to an alcohol-free version.</title><description><![CDATA[Hi r/Bitcoin, A few months ago I shared a slightly unusual experiment here: beer with sats hidden under every cap. I’m Altan from Beer of Satoshi. The idea was to make someone’s first Lightning interaction as simple as opening a bottle. You scan the QR code under the cap, reveal the reward in your browser, and claim the sats with a Lightning wallet. The response to the first post was much bigger than I expected, but the comments were more valuable than the attention itself. Some people loved the concept. Others were very direct about its weaknesses. The first Genesis batch was expensive at roughly €7 per bottle. And for people who did not drink alcohol, the product simply was not an option. One comment in particular stayed with me: “I like the idea, but I don’t drink alcohol.” That was a fair point. If the goal is to give more people a simple first Bitcoin experience, alcohol should not be a requirement. We had already produced a small alcohol-free test batch for Bitcoin Amsterdam 2025. It sold out, but the more interesting part was watching what happened after people opened the bottles. They scanned the caps, compared their rewards, helped each other with Lightning wallets, and made claims right there at the event. That convinced us to turn the test batch into a proper release. It is called Beer of Satoshi Zero. Zero is alcohol-free, but the Bitcoin experience under the cap stays the same. Every bottle reveals a sats reward in the browser, which can then be claimed over Lightning. No account is required, and you do not need a wallet just to reveal the amount. You only need one when you actually want to claim the sats. We also worked on the price. The 24-pack pre-order is €70.80, which comes to €2.95 per bottle. Smaller packs are available as well. This is a pre-order rather than ready stock, and the first shipments are planned for Q1 2027. Since the original Reddit thread, the public leaderboard has grown to 1,780 claims from 767 users, with 470,228 sats distributed. Those are still small numbers in the wider Bitcoin world, but they are enough to show why the concept can work. Telling someone to install a Lightning wallet because Bitcoin is interesting often creates friction. Showing them that sats are already waiting under a cap gives them a concrete reason to take the next step. That moment — when Bitcoin changes from something a person has only heard about into something they have actually received — is still the reason we are building this. Here is the original discussion: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1p4oili/beer_of_satoshi_my_experiment_to_get_real_people/ Beer of Satoshi Zero: https://shop.beerofsatoshi.com/products/beer-of-satoshi-zero Public claim leaderboard: https://leaderboard.beerofsatoshi.com The feedback on the first post genuinely changed the product. So before we finalise the production run, I would like to ask the community again: What would you improve about the first-time scan-and-claim experience?

Here there are miners to mine the coins to perform the duty cycle as usual.But the holders just download an app that asks you a certain sum as a security deposit for the wallet size that determines the size of transaction that can be made through the wallet.This deposit serves as a contribution to the app interface for its functioning so that intermediaries dont run away with the payees money meant for the person getting paid Now hypothetically,if 20 people download the app(which will be like u torrent or bit torrent).I want to transact currency from C to F in exchange for a service or hard cash and suppose C and F both have 100$ in their security deposit and wallet. C will initiate a transaction to F for certain amount of SlowCoin(SC) say 20$.The 20$ from C&#39;s account will go to his security deposit(120$) . 20$ from F&#39;s security deposit moves to his main account. Suppose lets say we have A,B,D,E in the vicinity of C.G,H in the vicinity of A,B,D and G,H in the vicinity of F.B and D will give to F a certain amount from their security deposit to F till their security deposit&#39;s proportion is equal to F&#39;s security deposit proportion,then G,H,A will give a certain proportion of security deposit to B and D till their secDep equalizes proportionally.Similarly F&#39;s security deposit equalizes proportionally with A,B,D,E like a pipeline from C to F. To keep the system active the rules are:- 1.The participants must facilitate transactions for a certain time ,for users around you to facilitate the participants transactions for the same amt of time 2.The number of other participants the O.P facilitated the transaction for (based on the proportion of security deposit).That many devices would facilitate transactions for the OP. 3.The devices would be connected to each other via bluetooth and money will only be managed by their devices itself. 4.Programs can be made tamper-proof by some sort of hash-key system assigned to the program by the mining duty cycle. The miners can also function as a balancer between geographical areas that are excess in (SC) and shortage of (SC).

I’m building PredictAsiaX, an Asia-focused prediction market platform designed around USDT access, multi-chain deposits and withdrawals, and multilingual users. The platform is roughly 95% complete based on our internal development checklist. That is a founder estimate—not an external audit, public-launch claim, or evidence of user traction. The current build includes: - Prediction markets across sports, politics, crypto and technology - Multi-source market-resolution and oracle infrastructure - Double-entry accounting - Risk controls and circuit breakers - 13-language support - USDT deposit and withdrawal infrastructure across multiple chains - Administrative systems for market, risk, treasury and user operations The platform is still gated and under development. Settlement currently runs off-chain through the production database. On-chain settlement is part of the future roadmap, but the target chain is still TBD. PAX, the platform’s utility token, is already deployed on Polygon and listed on CoinGecko. The token being live does not mean the platform is fully launched. I’m currently looking for: Early users interested in testing the product when gated access becomes available Honest feedback from traders, developers and prediction-market users Introductions to early-stage backers who understand the risks of a pre-launch crypto product Questions I would especially appreciate feedback on: What would you need to see before trusting the resolution process? Should settlement move fully on-chain, or would publishing on-chain proof hashes be sufficient? Which features would make an Asia-focused prediction market meaningfully different? What should be independently audited before public access opens? Project links Platform: https://predictasiax.com Whitepaper: https://predictasiax.com/whitepaper.pdf PAX on CoinGecko: https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/predictasiax For creators interested specifically in the PAX token KOL program: https://airdrop.predictasiax.com/kol-signup This is a development update and request for feedback, not financial advice or a promise of returns.

France already shows the failure mode: a tax office clerk sold investor data to kidnapping gangs</title><description><![CDATA[ Since January 1, 2026, every crypto exchange and broker serving EU residents has been collecting, for tax authorities, a file on each client: name, home address, date and place of birth, tax numbers, and aggregate yearly values of everything bought, sold, and swapped. Transfers to addresses the platform does not recognize are reported too, which in practice flags withdrawals to self-custody. In 2027 these files start flowing between the tax administrations of all 27 member states. The fiscal purpose is legitimate and the data is not public. That is precisely why the honest question is not whether the system is sealed on paper but how comparable datasets have actually escaped. The record is complete: a hacked private provider (Ledger 2020, 270,000 customers with home addresses), a bribed insider at a support contractor (Coinbase 2025, about 70,000 users including KYC document scans, with bribes reportedly starting in the hundreds of dollars), a corrupt official (a clerk at a French tax office, in custody since June 2025, allegedly ran queries for crypto investors and sold the results to organized crime), and a breached crypto tax platform (Waltio, January 2026, database on the dark web). In 2019 Bulgaria leaked the tax records of nearly every adult in the country. The stakes differ from ordinary financial data. A bank balance is a claim on an institution, protected by reversals and AML holds; self-custodied crypto is a bearer asset, seized together with the person. Knowing someone&#39;s deposit helps a fraudster; knowing someone&#39;s hardware wallet helps a kidnapper. The CJEU understood this in 2022 when it struck down public beneficial-ownership registers, listing fraud, kidnapping, blackmail, extortion, harassment, and violence as the risks of exposing wealth data. What proportionate design would look like: strict data minimization, logged and audited access per official, serious criminal exposure for misuse, independent audits of the exchange systems. What individuals can lawfully do meanwhile: shrink the KYC surface to one provider, never ship wallet hardware to a home address, and structure custody so that leaked knowledge is useless to an attacker. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Robert-Nogacki [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/the-eu-is-compiling-registries-of-crypto-holders-dac8-live-since-january-france-already-shows-the-failure-mode-a-tax-office-clerk-sold-investor-data-to-kidnapping-gangs</link><guid>870274</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>The EU is compiling registries of crypto holders (DAC8, live since January).

Anyone else running this exact tactic?</title><description><![CDATA[Hey everyone, I wanted to throw my current strategy out there, see what the community thinks, and find out if anyone else is running this exact same setup. First, the ground rules for my portfolio: I am a long-term Bitcoin believer. I DCA into BTC weekly, I have zero intention of stopping, and my core cold-storage stack is completely untouchable. I’m not selling it. However, life is happening right now. My family loves to travel, and I want to spend money making memories while the kids are young. I don&#39;t want to look back in 10 or 15 years wishing we had taken those trips. At the same time, I absolutely refuse to sell a single sat from my core BTC stack to fund vacations. To bridge the gap, I’ve started running a parallel strategy using MicroStrategy (MSTR) stock: The Long-Term Base: Keep the weekly spot BTC DCA running automatically in the background (generational wealth, never to be touched). The Travel Vehicle: Direct extra, separate capital into MSTR stock inside a traditional brokerage account. The Target: MSTR acts like a high-beta, corporate-leveraged play on Bitcoin. When BTC ultimately hits a major milestone like $200k+, MSTR should theoretically give me an amplified return on that specific capital. The Exit: I take profits strictly by selling the MSTR stock to fund family travels, leaving my actual Bitcoin completely intact. To me, it feels like the ultimate way to &quot;have my cake and eat it too.&quot; I get to use the explosive upside of the crypto market to enjoy real-life experiences today, without violating my golden rule of never selling my real Bitcoin. I know the risks—MSTR’s corporate leverage cuts both ways during drawdowns, and the Net Asset Value (NAV) premium can be highly erratic. But treating it strictly as a volatile lifestyle trading tool feels cleaner than touching cold storage. Is anyone else out there following this exact same tactic? If you use MSTR as a profit-taking satellite asset while maintaining a separate, permanent spot BTC stack, how has it worked out for you? What do you guys think of this approach? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Worldly-Ad-1274 [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/using-mstr-as-a-lifestyle-travel-fund-while-keeping-the-btc-stack-completely-untouched-anyone-else-running-this-exact-tactic</link><guid>870347</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Using MSTR as a "Lifestyle &amp; Travel Fund" while keeping the BTC stack completely untouched.

They essentially use options to create &quot;dividends&quot; for shareholders at pretty substantial yields. Pretty juicy returns when BTC was in a bull market and still good but decreasing in conjunction with the drop in BTC prices. I&#39;m thinking of taking on some shares, but then thought, how will these do when the price of BTC is rising since they use option strategies such as covered calls? They would probably have to close out their options if BTC goes parabolic, but would still experience the share price appreciation from holding BTC ETFs.

The archive preserves court filings, source-code snapshots, public posts, private-message records, Research Club transcripts, and screenshots. After law enforcement seized Samourai Wallet’s servers, William Hill—TDevD—messaged an associate: “Not good.” “I’m not thinking so much about Whirlpool as I am about the wallet backends (xpubs).” An extended public key cannot spend a user’s bitcoin, but it can reveal the addresses derived from a wallet and follow their history. For years, I had argued that Samourai’s default backend created exactly this point of failure. Hill’s message, reproduced in the government’s sentencing memorandum, showed that he understood why the seizure of that backend mattered. The seizure did not create the xpub problem. It exposed the consequences of a design choice that had been there from the start. I do not offer this post-mortem as vindication. A prison sentence cannot settle a protocol dispute, and an indictment cannot make every allegation true. I will distinguish what the public record establishes, what I infer from it, and what I remember but cannot independently prove. To understand what was sitting on that server—and why I had spent years shouting about it—we have to go back to a README file in July 2017, before the feud began. How ZeroLink actually began I wanted Samourai to succeed in implementing ZeroLink. I wanted more wallets to implement serious Bitcoin privacy, and I wanted ZeroLink to become useful software rather than another specification admired by a small circle and ignored by everyone else. I created ZeroLink. The repository history makes the chronology clear. I opened it on July 28, 2017. Before Samourai made a single commit, I had made 19 commits and written a 184-line, 2,883-word document containing the framework’s core architecture. Samourai’s first commit arrived two days later. Its title was “Fix typos”. It did exactly that. ZeroLink was not merely a name for a CoinJoin transaction. It was a privacy framework for Bitcoin wallets: blinded coordination together with rules for network privacy, coin selection, transaction chains, and spending after the mix. Chaumian CoinJoin was the protocol; ZeroLink was the wider wallet framework. That is the work Samourai later claimed to have co-created. At the August 14 publication snapshot, Git blame attributes 6,126 of the document’s 6,627 words to me and 242 to Bill/TDevD. Their only sizeable technical addition concerned BIP47 and stealth addresses. At the time, I did not understand what problem that proposal solved or why it belonged in ZeroLink. Instead of challenging it, I assumed I was missing something and accepted it out of politeness. Two days later, I clarified that BIP47 was not part of the protocol, and I removed the section in 2019. The rest of their work was overwhelmingly light editing. I had also placed TDevD in the Authors section before that proposal was committed. Both decisions came from the same reflex: they spoke with confidence, I assumed any confusion was mine, and I tried to be generous. That politeness was later used to support an authorship claim the repository does not support. By 2022—three years after I had publicly challenged the co-creation story, with the Git history still open for inspection—Samourai was still repeating it. I regard those later repetitions as a lie. “Collaboration” can be innocent shorthand before anyone disputes it. It stops being innocent after the primary record is placed in front of you and you continue telling the version that promotes you from reviewer and prospective implementer to co-creator. Our contact was limited. We barely spoke, and I was never part of Samourai. I had created ZeroLink; Samourai said it intended to implement it. Brian “Shinobi” Trollz, who observed the dispute at the time, later recalled a specific turning point. I asked for a week to consider whether coordinators could be run altruistically. During that week, he said, Samourai’s posture toward me shifted into mockery. By April 2019, I had recorded that they were no longer interested or responsive and that I had continued independently. People can disagree about why our limited contact ended. The authorship record is not a matter of recollection. The central privacy difference The authorship dispute mattered to me. The architectural difference between the wallets mattered to users. Wasabi’s default architecture was designed to deny its own operator the wallet graph. The backend distributed block filters; clients checked addresses locally; wallet traffic went through Tor; and blinded CoinJoin credentials prevented the coordinator from linking a registered input to its output. A user did not have to operate a personal server to hide addresses and transaction history from us. Privacy from the service operator was the default. Samourai’s default client sent extended public keys to Samourai’s hosted backend. Whoever possesses an xpub can derive its associated addresses and follow their transactions. Samourai’s own Dojo documentation disclosed the consequence indirectly. Running MyDojo improved privacy by “completely bypassing” the default hosted servers, while its Tracker recorded registered xpubs and addresses. Then came the clearest lie in the xpub argument. In October 2022, Kruw pointed out that the default app exposed the user’s xpub and asked why Samourai would not use BIP157/BIP158 client-side filters. The official wallet account refused, defended what it called “the best architecture for our needs,” and claimed it had been “open and truthful from day one.” When asked whether wider BIP157 adoption would change that decision, the official account answered: “We are a full node wallet. Always have been.” That statement remains public. It was false. The Android app was a light client of a backing server. Dojo could place that server and a Bitcoin Core node under the user’s control, but it did not turn the phone into a full node. Samourai’s own 2019 announcement said default users had to trust its servers with their public keys. Hill’s sentencing submission later described the architecture as one used by “light wallets.” Tor support existed, but it was not enabled by default. Samourai’s signed source allowed a user to create a wallet while Tor remained off, treated the Tor preference as false unless the user enabled it, and used the ordinary network path for xpub requests when Tor was disabled. An April 2023 report on Samourai’s own GitLab included the wallet-creation screen with Tor off, Dojo unconfigured, and Create a new wallet still available. The issue, titled “Important privacy features are disabled by default,” proposed enabling Tor and Dojo by default or at least warning users what the disabled settings exposed. A Samourai project owner said the proposal would not be merged, called the report “concern trolling,” issued a “first and final warning,” and immediately closed it. The archived issue preserves the exchange. The privacy problem was reported on their own development platform. Their response was to reject the change and threaten the reporter. An earlier exchange used a different evasion. In July 2022, a user wrote: “Xpub is sent to whirlpool servers.” Hill answered: “No xpubs are handled by the coordinator.” The xpubs went to Samourai’s wallet backend, not the Whirlpool coordinator. He changed the noun while avoiding the issue. In the same reply, he claimed Samourai had implemented ZeroLink “on spec,” something I supposedly “didn’t have the skill set to do.” The post simultaneously evaded the backend question and reversed the authorship record. Sentinel, Samourai’s watch-only app, made the architecture even easier to see. A watch-only wallet legitimately needs an xpub, and Sentinel correctly said it could not spend the user’s coins. The privacy question was what happened after the user imported that xpub. In August 2017, Samourai committed a change titled “move XPUB multiaddr to Samourai API”. From then on, Sentinel sent tracked xpubs to Samourai’s hosted backend. It did so for more than two years before Tor routing was added. When Tor arrived, its preference defaulted to off. Sentinel could not steal users’ coins. Its hosted mode could map their wallets. That collection was integral to the product, not incidental telemetry. Dojo arrived years later Dojo did not erase what the default client had already disclosed. Dojo’s server code was released on June 2, 2019, nearly four years into Samourai’s life. Even then, Samourai said the wallet required another update before it could pair with Dojo. Version 0.99.81 finally added pairing on July 11, 2019, but only for a newly created wallet. Restoring an existing wallet was explicitly unsupported. Samourai’s own release announcement instructed users to create a new wallet after pairing. An earlier user who wanted to stop using Samourai’s hosted servers therefore had to create a new wallet behind Dojo and move funds out of the old wallet. That could prevent disclosure of the new wallet’s xpub. It could not retract the old xpub or history already sent to Samourai. A direct transfer between the wallets would also remain visible on-chain. Dojo gave later self-hosters a way to avoid future disclosure. It did not retroactively protect default users. The Blockchain.info lineage William led the Blockchain.info Android wallet project that preceded Samourai. He opened the surviving Android-Wallet-2-App history with its April 2014 initial commit and is its dominant visible developer by commit count. His sentencing submission calls him Blockchain.com’s senior mobile developer. Contemporary coverage identifies Keonne Rodriguez as the product lead responsible for the refreshed wallet’s interface and user experience. William’s commits even include “UI prep for shared coin”, referring to Blockchain.info’s earlier mixing product. They did not create Blockchain.info itself. They did lead the mobile-wallet project from which Samourai emerged. Samourai then kept its own source private for approximately a year. At the time, it said this delay was deliberate and intended to give the product a competitive “leg-up.” When the first public Samourai snapshot appeared in March 2016, it contained unmistakable Blockchain.info lineage. That does not mean the entire application was a verbatim copy. It does contradict the image of a clean-sheet privacy wallet appearing from nowhere. SharedCoin matters because its trust problem was already understood. It was noncustodial, but its server constructed the joins and knew their links. Public transaction ambiguity could not provide privacy from the operator that already knew the mapping. Samourai rebuilt that operator-trust problem by collecting wallet-level public keys on its default server. I raised this before the seizure. In an April 2020 Wasabi Research Club discussion about ZeroLink, I described the rejected design plainly: a trusted central server to which everyone sends their xpubs. That, I said, “obviously sounds pretty stupid,” which is why ZeroLink used blinded coordination. In July 2021, I again explained that if a server possesses the xpub, repeated mixing cannot erase what the server already knows. In September 2022, during a discussion of balance-query architectures, I warned that an xpub retained on another computer could later be exposed through hacking or seizure. The government seized Samourai’s servers in April 2024. The practical distinction was whether the operator was technically prevented from learning wallet relationships or merely trusted not to use them. Wasabi was not perfect against every imaginable adversary. No honest system built on Bitcoin, Tor, fallible software, and human behavior can promise that. But against the service operator—the adversary at the center of this dispute—Wasabi placed cryptography and local processing between the user and us. Samourai relied on trust in its operator. Sockpuppets and attacks on critics My first SamouraiLeaks investigation began with the suspicion that one of Samourai’s developers was promoting the project and attacking critics through an identity presented as independent. In April 2019, I published the evidence that “foneBTC” and “fone-btc” were TDevD/William Hill’s sockpuppet accounts. The investigation itself contains the proof. The problem was not the use of a pseudonym. Pseudonyms are normal in Bitcoin. The problem was hidden affiliation used to manufacture consensus: one participant appearing to be several, promotion made to look organic, and an interested party presenting himself as a neutral observer. In a field where few users can audit every cryptographic claim themselves, reputation becomes part of the security model. Astroturfing corrupts that model. Before publishing, I tried private discussion, sought a mediator, and offered to stop discussing Samourai if the attacks stopped. Eventually, I concluded that my silence was being treated as permission rather than de-escalation. Other developers then began describing the same treatment. Gregory Maxwell said architectural criticism was answered with harassment and accusations instead of a technical response. Nicolas Dorier described the reaction he received after pointing out that the default backend received users’ extended public keys. Their comments remain in the original discussion, including Dorier’s account. Luke Dashjr said that disclosing an RPC-password exposure in a setup guide brought an accusation that he operated a criminal protection racket. Chris Belcher later described substantive BIP47 objections being answered by smears against the people raising them. These were independent developers, not a Wasabi group. Several of them also criticized Wasabi. Their accounts described the same response: technical objections were redirected toward the critic’s motives, status, or character. Accuse loudly, qualify quietly After enough repetitions, the pattern became predictable: begin with something real—an uncertainty, compromise, or bug—then attach the most damaging possible interpretation and promote that interpretation as the headline. When contrary evidence appears, place the qualification where fewer people will see it: inside a reply, outside a screenshot, or silently inside a later code change. Samourai claimed I had admitted Wasabi supplied its own liquidity. I had made no such admission. The journalist responsible for the report corrected that characterization, but the correction never travelled as far as the accusation. Another observer documented how Samourai’s presentation excluded my correction and contrary replies. The same technique appeared in the Tor-identity dispute. In April 2023, a user asked whether Whirlpool changed Tor circuits between input registration and output registration. Keonne Rodriguez answered categorically that it did and dismissed the questioner as a known liar. In March 2024, the Whirlpool client added an explicit changeIdentity() call immediately before output registration. The code comment said the new identity was used to “unlink from input.” The later commit cannot establish that previous users were deanonymized or that anyone exploited the earlier behavior. It does establish that the categorical answer was not justified. A precise response in 2023 would have explained what the code did, what had been verified, and what remained uncertain. Rodriguez answered with certainty and an insult. The code changed later. That response culture made reporting problems socially expensive. Even small bugs became difficult to discuss because the reporter risked becoming the subject. OXT was owned by Samourai OXT was not an independent research group that happened to agree with Samourai. In December 2017, Samourai announced that it had “finalized the acquisition” of OXT in an all-bitcoin transaction and described the purchase as a long-term strategic investment. Years later, an OXT developer’s support letter included in William’s own sentencing submission described OXT as a Bitcoin forensic tool “owned and operated by Samourai Wallet.” The government separately described William and Keonne as operating OXT as a tracing and wallet-attribution tool. Samourai denounced surveillance companies while owning and operating a blockchain tracing and wallet-attribution tool of its own. In August 2020, this Samourai-owned research arm announced two supposed Wasabi vulnerabilities, rated them High/Critical, claimed they could cancel privacy gained from earlier mixes, and gave us forty-eight hours to publish a warning on its terms. The full report contained a fatal premise: the attacker had to know the composition of the target’s wallet at a chosen point in time and know events affecting that wallet’s participation in later rounds. That was not a small condition. It supplied the wallet membership the alleged attack was supposed to uncover. OXT’s demonstration avoided the problem by controlling both sides. Its “Alice” started with a known coin. Its “Eve” already knew which funds belonged to Alice and ran a modified Wasabi client that logged round events. Given the wallet’s exact starting state, public coin-selection code could sometimes predict which coins the client would offer next. That showed that known software can behave predictably when the observer is handed its private starting state. It did not demonstrate how an outside observer could discover an unknown wallet’s contents, identify an unknown mixed output as the target’s, or recover the blinded input-to-output link. Even in that constructed test, predictions failed because of confirmation states, failed rounds, and coordinator behavior. OXT called those deviations “exogenous randomness.” Its reported “adjusted anonsets” were values produced by its own model—not identities uncovered or input-output links recovered. My contemporaneous response explained that distinction. Adding randomness can be reasonable hardening without validating a claimed exploit. Samourai later treated Wasabi 2’s different coin-selection behavior as an admission that OXT had been right. The timeline contradicts that story. The Wasabi 2 research effort began in January 2020, and WabiSabi was publicly presented in June—before OXT’s August disclosure. The hypocrisy was direct: OXT’s hypothetical attacker needed to begin with a target’s wallet map, while Samourai’s actual default backend collected wallet maps. OXT itself later wrote that privacy guarantees must come from default software behavior, not burdens placed on users. Samourai’s default failed that standard. Avoiding its hosted backend required the user to run Dojo. Criminal association as a marketing weapon Samourai and OXT repeatedly attached Wasabi’s name to alleged criminal activity and then treated the association itself as evidence against us. The trap worked either way. If we answered, we helped spread the association. If we stayed silent, they presented the silence as a concession. In some cases, answering meaningfully would have required disclosing operational knowledge or investigative methods that could not safely be made public. The absence of a public response did not mean agreement. Samourai’s double standard became especially ugly after Luke Dashjr’s theft. On January 4, 2023, OXTObserver flagged 204.77460928 BTC as #LUKE-JR_STOLEN_FUNDS and described the wallet as controlled by hackers. Samourai Wallet reposted the alert. A user asked what Samourai would do if the thieves tried to mix the coins in Whirlpool. The official account answered: “If they go into Whirlpool? Relish in the delicious irony and extra salt in Luke’s gaping wound.” The exchange remains public. It does not establish that the stolen coins entered Whirlpool. It establishes how Samourai’s official account reacted to the possibility because the victim was Luke. By 2022, legal and regulatory pressure on zkSNACKs was threatening the survival of the company-run coordination service. The default coordinator began rejecting some UTXOs. I had argued against blacklisting, and users who felt betrayed had a legitimate grievance. That policy was censorship by one service. It did not reveal the relationship between accepted inputs and their outputs. The protocol still blinded that relationship; Wasabi remained MIT-licensed; and alternative coordinators could operate without zkSNACKs’ policy. Samourai turned the policy dispute into the claim that Wasabi had become a surveillance wallet. The comparison ignored the architectures: zkSNACKs refused some inputs without learning their outputs, while Samourai’s default backend received and retained ordinary users’ wallet maps. The megaphone was bigger than the product Samourai’s Twitter presence made the rivalry look symmetrical despite the large difference in usage. Dumplings—my reproducible CoinJoin scanner—separated fresh bitcoin entering a mixer from coins merely being remixed. From Whirlpool’s first detected month in April 2019 through the dataset’s end in August 2022, it identified approximately 247,675 fresh BTC entering Wasabi and 30,228 entering Whirlpool. Wasabi led in every one of those forty-one months. This measures bitcoin volume, not unique users. It is nevertheless the opposite of adoption parity. Whirlpool’s headline transaction totals were enlarged by free remixes, through which the same bitcoin could appear in round after round without representing a new user or newly arriving funds. Samourai had a large social-media megaphone. It did not have comparable adoption by this measure. Moving privacy problems did not solve them Whirlpool advertised CoinJoin transactions with no toxic change. Its TX0 transaction kept the change outside the CoinJoin and placed it in a separate account so users would be less likely to spend it accidentally with mixed coins. That was useful. It did not make the toxic change disappear. Samourai itself later called those coins “unmixed toxic change” while proposing a way to swap them into Monero. TX0 publicly joined the deposit inputs, created fixed-denomination premix outputs, and exposed which first Whirlpool rounds spent them. Peeling change off before the CoinJoin did not create another on-chain break between that change and the first mix. It moved the point where the change appeared. Fixed denominations created costs at both ends. A user could have to combine inputs publicly to enter a pool. Later, an ordinary payment would rarely equal one pool denomination, so the user could have to combine post-mix outputs and create new change. Equal-output CoinJoins still provided privacy. Remix counts alone could not show whether that privacy survived the eventual spend. The coordinator-fee address revealed another double standard. In 2020, Samourai condemned Wasabi’s reuse of a coordinator-fee address in absolute terms and said there was “no going back” from the damage. In October 2023, Kruw reported that Whirlpool’s coordinator had reused one fee address across 37 transactions. In one cited transaction, 36 outputs from that address were consolidated as inputs. The archived report survives. That reuse does not itself prove Whirlpool users were demixed. The issue is the standard Samourai applied: it described address reuse in Wasabi as irreversible architectural damage, while Kruw says his equivalent report about Whirlpool was deleted. Precision matters in both directions The record contains real Samourai security failures, ambiguous claims, and some historical mislabeling. They should not be treated as one undifferentiated charge sheet. In 2021, an independent researcher disclosed a genuine local PIN-bypass weakness. Restarting the app reset the attempt counter; wallet metadata required for an offline PIN search was available on the device; and the PIN space was small. The issue became CVE-2021-36689. That was a defined security failure with a specific version and threat model. It was not evidence that every Samourai wallet could be drained remotely. My SamouraiLeaks Part 3 investigation concerned an earlier and different codebase: the Blockchain.info Android wallet William led before Samourai. That repository contained a generator that fetched entropy from Random.org over unencrypted HTTP. Under a narrow fallback path on older Android devices, a redirect combined with failed local entropy could produce deterministic key material. Ars Technica reported the conditions and risks in 2015. That history documents a serious engineering failure under particular conditions. It does not establish that every Samourai wallet used broken randomness or that William stole anybody’s coins. Those distinctions are what responsible security disclosure requires: what happened, who was affected, what is inferred, and what remains unknown. Samourai’s communications culture often treated those distinctions as weakness when answering critics, then demanded endless qualification when scrutiny turned inward. When you wrestle with a pig, you both get dirty The public posts document individual incidents, but they cannot fully convey their cumulative effect over several years. I began to approach technical conversations as possible trials of character because bug reports, imprecise reporting, and edited recordings could all be reframed as evidence of bad intent. Leaving a false claim unanswered allowed it to spread. Answering prolonged the conflict. I spent time preserving evidence that I wanted to spend on code. Friends and independent developers had to decide whether correcting the record was worth becoming the next target. I did not handle that well. I called the project “Scamourai” and swore at them. In 2019, CoinDesk quoted one of my replies simply saying, “Fuck you.” That anger produced little of value. The childish nickname allowed a long evidentiary record to be mistaken for reciprocal mudslinging and made it easier for outsiders to conclude that both sides were merely marketing tribes. I also sometimes spoke with more certainty than the evidence allowed. Receiving an xpub, retaining it, selling it, and maliciously querying it are separate claims. I knew the default backend received wallet-level public information. Before the server analysis became public, I did not know everything Samourai retained or did with it. I should have marked those boundaries in an angry tweet as carefully as I would in a protocol review. I regret the way I spoke. It made the documented issues easier to dismiss. Threats and doxxing By April 2023, the conflict had passed far beyond professional hostility. I received multiple threats that I understood as death threats from William Hill. I also received anonymous private threats during the same campaign. The screenshots cannot establish who controlled those anonymous accounts, so I distinguish them from Hill’s public posts. One anonymous message sent me a full address in Besenyszög. I censored the street-level portion before preserving it. Another sender claimed to have checked an address and seen me and my “stinking tribe,” asked whether I thought I could stay safe, and ended: “Don’t worry Nopara. We shall meet. Won’t be pretty on your end.” The screenshots establish what I received. They do not establish who operated the anonymous accounts. Hill’s public conduct requires less inference. He posted my parents’ home address more than once. I will not reproduce or link to those posts, because documenting doxxing does not require doing it again. On April 18, 2023, the official Samourai Wallet account posted “Snitches get stitches”. Two days later, Hill addressed me directly: “As a die hard collaborator, you deserve much worse.” “Let’s see how this plays out, OK bud?” The attached image showed armed men surrounding a seated captive whose head was being shaved. I understood the combination of those words and that image as a threat. The post remains available here. In February 2024, Hill wrote that I was “way overdue to get yours” and appended the name of my parents’ town. A follower replied: “Hope he gets stitches and ends up in a ditch.” Hill answered: “Yes.” “Soon.” The first post and Hill’s reply remain public. Six weeks later, Hill wrote: “It ain’t over until the fat boy is gutted (see bio).” He placed those words above Yasushi Nagao’s famous photograph of the onstage assassination of Japanese Socialist Party chairman Inejirō Asanuma. I had originally misremembered the victim as a Japanese prime minister. The recovered post identifies the photograph correctly. That correction does not change the nature of the post. As preserved on July 10, 2026, Hill’s public profile still named me, repeated the “gutted” language, and appended the small town where my parents live. Publishing my family’s location beside violent language was intimidation. What the server seizure revealed When Samourai’s founders were arrested in April 2024, I refused to treat the indictment as a verdict. Privacy software is not money laundering simply because criminals use it. The legal boundary around noncustodial software was—and remains—important. But law enforcement also seized Samourai’s servers, and later court filings addressed the technical issues I had been raising for years. In October 2025, the government said its server analysis showed that Rodriguez and Hill had retained enough information to trace or “demix” many mobile users’ Whirlpool transactions. By cross-referencing stored xpubs with past, present, and future Whirlpool transactions, an analyst could connect inputs and outputs through complex analysis. The filing stated an important limit: this did not by itself connect those transactions to real-world identities. The defense did not deny xpub collection. Hill’s sentencing submission tried to recast it as a functional necessity: users without their own nodes needed the backend to calculate balances, it said, and the design affected “only 20%” of Whirlpool users. That was a consequence of Samourai’s chosen architecture, not a universal requirement of light wallets. Wasabi obtained block filters and checked addresses on the client without giving our server the wallet’s xpub. The filing supplied no citation, methodology, underlying counts, or independent measurement for its 20 percent figure. It may have been a figure provided by Samourai and repeated by its lawyers. The public submission gives us no way to know. Even if accepted for the sake of argument, one in five Whirlpool users is not trivial. More importantly, the argument conceded the architecture I had objected to: A class of users gave its wallet graph to Samourai’s infrastructure. Samourai retained that information. The seizure placed it in government hands. The government’s “demix” finding is a representation in a sentencing memorandum, not an independently published forensic report. That qualification matters. So does the fact that Hill’s own post-seizure concern was not primarily Whirlpool itself, but “the wallet backends (xpubs).” The darknet double standard The June 2025 superseding indictment reproduced private messages and Dread posts in which Hill steered people who openly described criminal proceeds away from a competing mixer and toward Whirlpool. It alleged that Rodriguez knew Hill was doing substantial promotional work on Dread. This mattered because Samourai and OXT had repeatedly used alleged criminal use of Wasabi as part of their public case against us. The later record showed Samourai pursuing those same users as customers. On Dread, competitor disparagement was not abstract privacy research. It was a sales pitch aimed at people asking how to conceal criminal proceeds. In August 2025, Rodriguez and Hill each pleaded guilty to conspiring to operate a money-transmitting business knowing it transmitted crime proceeds. The money-laundering conspiracy count was dropped through their plea agreements. In November, Rodriguez received five years in prison and Hill four. The sentences did not resolve the software arguments. The prosecution also raised troubling due-process questions. Before the pleas, the defense argued that prosecutors had disclosed too late a FinCEN communication saying Samourai’s lack of control over users’ keys strongly suggested it was not a money-services business under FinCEN’s rules. The government disputed the significance of that communication. Anyone who cares about open-source privacy software should care about that issue too. The lies and hypocrisies Developers can be mistaken, remember events differently, or speak with unjustified confidence. I use “lie” more narrowly: a materially false account repeated after contrary evidence has been presented because the false version remains useful. By that standard: The ZeroLink co-creation story was a lie. The framework predated Samourai’s involvement. Its first contribution fixed typos. Samourai kept repeating the joint-origin account after I challenged it with the repository. The claim that I admitted Wasabi supplied its own liquidity was false. The journalist corrected the interpretation, but Samourai continued promoting the damaging version without my correction. The categorical Tor answer was false or recklessly certain. Rodriguez insulted the person asking, and the code later added the identity change the question had asked about. “We are a full node wallet. Always have been” was false. Without Dojo, the Android application was a light client of Samourai’s backend. The coordinator answer was an evasion. The Whirlpool coordinator may not have handled xpubs, but Samourai’s wallet backend did. OXT was not an independent referee. It was acquired, owned, and operated by Samourai while presenting severe claims against Samourai’s main competitor under a research label. Samourai’s position on surveillance was hypocritical. It denounced blockchain-surveillance companies while operating a tracing and wallet-attribution tool and collecting wallet maps on its default backend. Its position on address reuse was a double standard. It described Wasabi’s reuse as irreversible architectural damage, while equivalent reuse later appeared in Whirlpool. Its use of criminal association was selective. It attacked Wasabi through alleged criminal use while privately promoting Whirlpool to darknet users describing criminal proceeds. Its central privacy promise was contradicted by its defaults. The wallet sent xpubs to Samourai’s hosted backend and left Tor off unless the user enabled it. In that configuration, the same service could receive both the wallet graph and the connecting IP address. I use the name “Scamourai” to describe what I see as a false central promise, not as a legal accusation of fraud. The product sold resistance to surveillance while placing its operator in a position to surveil. It promoted verification while asking default users to trust that Samourai would not misuse wallet information its servers retained. To me, that went beyond imperfect privacy because the contradiction was built into the default architecture. Post-mortem The lasting damage was not only personal. It affected the authorship record and the possibility of productive competition. I gave TDevD more credit than the repository justified. Samourai inflated that credit into co-creation. Minor edits became joint research through repetition. The same culture made correction look like surrender and uncertainty look like weakness, turning technical competition into personal hostility. I contributed to that hostility by answering contempt with contempt. I cannot undo those words, but I can document the history more carefully now. Future privacy developers should not take this essay as a request to trust me or as a rule that every server and coordinator is unacceptable. The practical lesson is simpler: examine what an operator can learn if its infrastructure is compromised, coerced, hacked, or seized. Team identity, marketing, and a founder’s character are not privacy guarantees. A sound privacy protocol should continue protecting its users when trust in the operator fails. That is the standard I tried to build into ZeroLink. It is also the standard Samourai told its users to expect. The seized servers show why the difference mattered. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/nopara73 [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/post-mortem-what-happened-between-samourai-wallet-and-me</link><guid>870137</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Post-Mortem: What Happened Between Samourai Wallet and Me</dc:text></item><item><title>Stay away from Kraken</title><description><![CDATA[ I just wanted to share and inform about the mischievous activity of Kraken towards their users. If you check r/KrakenSupport , you will find dozens and dozens of posts regarding unanswered tickets, frozen deposits or withdrawals etc. All of them remaining unanswered. If you try to go spread the news, Kraken tries to silence you. I myself have been muted by kraken and my post was taken down. The only way to contact Kraken is via ticket or via reddit. They do not offer phone calls or emails. You may also talk to a useless AI Agent, which keeps repeating the same answer. https://preview.redd.it/6p4hr6um6nch1.png?width=760&amp;format=png&amp;auto=webp&amp;s=c7b95d6a9e27c2ddc4c30f416c5c3fa32261d51c That being said, Kraken is supposed to be one of the more trustworthy crypto exchanges, backed by the Bank of Ireland I thought. What are your experiences with Kraken? Could you recommend better crypto exchanges (living in the EU, so MiCA required...) Edit: Some of these comments seem to suggest I did something wrong and falsely accuse me of improper use being the explanation for my frozen assets. So I want to use this edit to make few things clear: 1. I have opened the account 7 days ago 2. I verified successfully immediately 3. I have transferred money using their proposed SEPA mandate, after verification 4. My fiat Bank account provides documents for the successful transfer. The money was sent. 5. Immediately after the transfer, a popup message shows up on kraken, describing my account as restricted and promoting me to please check my mails for further info 6. My mail account is empty. No kraken info 7. Yes, I quadruple checked 8. Yes, I quintuple checked Spam also 9. I tried using their premade support solutions on the support page. No success 10. I tried reaching out via the chatbot. It created 5 tickets, all of which have been closed unanswered 11. I failed to find an official mail or phone number. Hence I went to reddit. After my first post, they started the &quot;just wait&quot;-mechanics. 12. I don&#39;t even think I am overreacting or being a nuisance. Someone said this behavior is normal for any financial service, and I strongly disagree. Everyone and anything has ever perfectly explained to me any transaction, any ban, any restriction ever going on with any financial issue on every single bank account I never owned. I had 10k€ vanish because of a software bug on an investment portfolio. Support was marvelous, and they explained clearly where the money went, how they will get I back etc. 13. I sent the money from a bank account in my name, matching the name in the legal documents I had to provide for verification. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Adventurous_Heat1003 [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/stay-away-from-kraken</link><guid>870067</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Stay away from Kraken</dc:text></item><item><title>Just curious how many buy on exchange versus stuff like Venmo or Cash App</title><description><![CDATA[And then transfer it to a cold wallet? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/SamFisherXboxOG [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/just-curious-how-many-buy-on-exchange-versus-stuff-like-venmo-or-cash-app</link><guid>870057</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Just curious how many buy on exchange versus stuff like Venmo or Cash App</dc:text></item><item><title>I built an autonomous ESP32-S3 controller to mine Bitcoin strictly using solar surplus (Zero grid consumption). Open Source! ☀️⛏️</title><description><![CDATA[ Hey everyone, I just dropped v4.0 of my open-source Solar Crypto Mining Farm project, and I wanted to share the architecture. The goal was simple: mine Bitcoin only when there’s free solar energy, and never pay for grid electricity to do it. I’m running a 7,740Wp solar array into a custom mining fleet (Avalon Q, Nerd Octaxe, NerdQAxe+, and a BitAxe Gamma). To orchestrate this, I built an edge-computing controller using an auto-detected ESP32-S3. How it works: The ESP32-S3 polls a 6-channel Refoss EM06P energy monitor every 30 seconds via HTTP API. It calculates the exact solar surplus across a bi-phase circuit (W, VA, and VAR). The decision engine automatically switches between 16 calculated mining profiles (from a single 21W BitAxe up to a 2001W full fleet blasting 104.5 TH/s) to perfectly match the live surplus. Relays handle the smaller ASICs, while the Avalon Q is controlled via CGMiner API commands to scale its modes (Low/Mid/High). Everything is logged to a Supabase cloud database, and the ESP32 serves a live local web dashboard. I also built a live Three.js 3D visualization of the whole cluster operating in real-time. You can check out the live 3D dashboard here:https://0xraphael.com/solar-mining-clusterAnd the full repo (including the v4 per-phase W/VA/VAR scalar math and Tasmota configs) is available here: https://github.com/0xrphl/Solar-crypto-mining-farm-maximization-control Would love to hear any feedback on the energy modeling or the edge logic! &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/0xrphl [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/i-built-an-autonomous-esp32-s3-controller-to-mine-bitcoin-strictly-using-solar-surplus-zero-grid-consumption-open-source</link><guid>870052</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>I built an autonomous ESP32-S3 controller to mine Bitcoin strictly using solar surplus (Zero grid consumption).

It seems like the most rational, reasonable approach would be to heavy index funds along with some Bitcoin ETFs. Safe and uncomplicated. I&#39;m going with real Bitcoin in cold storage. Why?

He struggled with addiction for years, and even though we tried everything to help him, it eventually took his life. Going through his things afterward was one of the hardest experiences I’ve ever had. Mixed in with the chaos of his old notebooks, devices, and personal items, I found a Bitcoin wallet he had been using. It has around 1 BTC in it. I know that’s not a fortune, but right now it feels huge. I’m out of work, and I have a baby to take care of. Every day is a balancing act between grief, responsibility, and trying to keep us afloat. That 1 BTC wouldn’t fix everything, but it would give us some breathing room — something I haven’t felt in a long time. The problem is: I can’t find his seed phrase.

You put $2000 in a perpetual futures vault, or some combination of blue chip pools, and then you spend 25 cents a day to bribe your way out of ads. Why did nobody integrate web3? People spent more in gas to move a jpeg than a monthly news subscription. I should be able to use fixed yield tools to continuously fund my favorite websites and creators, without either party exposing themselves to insolvency risk. The tooling is there to build yield-based subscription models, but very few sites are integrating with the Metamask compatible framework that all the gambling sites run on. It&#39;s like stepping into the future for a brief moment, only that they offer something that is mathematically predestined to reward specific behaviors over others in a negative sum fashion given the gas cost to do anything (it&#39;s still cheaper and more open than traditional payment routing methods). If the NYT needs 4 bucks a month to run, let me park $100 in some fixed-yield derivative of a degen farm where the future payout is guaranteed to the site for a year or something. I get like $90 bucks back on a bad year when I unlock my liquidity provisions, and we both make out in the green, because either the degen yield trader lost the farm, or leverage users had a Tuesday. Assuming the internet remains primarily free and ad driven, what obstacles are we dealing with? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/flersion [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/i-lowkey-wouldnt-mind-providing-liquidity-to-gamblers-to-nickel-and-dime-my-way-through-the-internet</link><guid>869890</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>I lowkey wouldn't mind providing liquidity to gamblers to nickel and dime my way through the internet</dc:text></item><item><title>He Made $70 Million From His Bedroom.

Theres dozens of reasons one could argue for in favor of either side whether they support gold or Bitcoin. However the one reason that trumps them all, I think, is the fact that as we all know, there will only ever be 21 Million BTC. On the flip side, who knows if one day a massive amount of gold will be discovered? Advances in mining technology, whether it be more efficient processing equipment or high tech scanning instruments, could greatly increase the global supply of gold. Perhaps an asteroid will crash from outer space one day bringing incomprehensible amounts of gold with it. The point being, there are a ton of unknowns with the future of the gold supply, meanwhile the Bitcoin supply is completely predictable, and will be as long as the internet is still up and running. Does anyone agree or disagree with this thought? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/IHopeYouHaveSomeBTC [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/bitcoin-is-better-than-gold</link><guid>870060</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Bitcoin is better than gold</dc:text></item><item><title>US to Drop Charges for Alleged $722 Million Crypto Fraudster</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Lisaismyfav [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/us-to-drop-charges-for-alleged-722-million-crypto-fraudster</link><guid>869892</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>US to Drop Charges for Alleged $722 Million Crypto Fraudster</dc:text></item><item><title>Risk it all</title><description><![CDATA[There’s 2 types of people with $10,000 First type buys a $3,000 and invests the $7k The second buys a $25,000 car and makes payments for the next 5 years.

Two things always bugged me though: you can&#39;t change how it looks, and it only ever shows the whole market, never your coins. So I built one into the tracker I work on. Bubbles sized by price change, market cap or volume, timeframes from 1H to 1Y, and you pick how many assets are on screen. There&#39;s a theme system if the default look isn&#39;t yours, and besides the market view you can load your own portfolio or watchlist as the bubbles, which is the part I actually use. Physics is d3-force, so they drift and collide for real instead of looping a canned animation. https://mantapex.com/visualization I work on Mantapex, so read this with the appropriate suspicion. The market view is free and needs no account, that&#39;s what the link opens. Portfolio and watchlist modes do need one, since it has to know what you hold. And if all you want is a quick look at the whole market, cryptobubbles honestly does that fine too. Curious which theme people end up on. The default is called Big Blue but I keep switching to Asteroids. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Drakuf [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/i-got-tired-of-bubble-charts-i-couldnt-customize-so-i-built-one-where-you-can-restyle-everything-free-no-login</link><guid>869796</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>I got tired of bubble charts I couldn't customize, so I built one where you can restyle everything (free, no login)</dc:text></item><item><title>What crypto card is the best for living in Europe?</title><description><![CDATA[I have a Ukrainian residence.

At the moment, you can kind of use -connect. You can use -connect to make it connect to local computers on your LAN, like -connect=192.168.0.100. If you start it out blank and don&#39;t let it connect to the main network, the difficulty is still at the original low difficulty. If you&#39;ve port-forwarded though, then outside nodes might still connect inward to you. With -connect it still uses IRC, do you think it shouldn&#39;t get on IRC when you&#39;re telling it to only connect to specific nodes with -connect? The main scenario for - connect is where you have a server farm, with two connected to the network and the rest connected to the first two. In that case, you wouldn&#39;t want the -connect computers on IRC. void ThreadIRCSeed(void* parg) { if (mapArgs.count(&quot;-connect&quot;)) return; Satoshi, would you be open to a --testnetwork (or something) flag to bitcoin that swapped to an alternate genesis block, data directory, listen port and IRC channel? Maybe with a really short average block generation time, too (like once per minute instead of once per 10 minutes) so everything happens ten times a fast to make testing quicker. I second this, however I don&#39;t think block generation time should be changed. I think it should be identical to the production network. This, for example, would allow testers to try to subvert the system by creating nodes with particularly low latency, and keep the results applicable to the real network.

We often focus a lot on how to replace normal fiat transactions, but there are so many cool, entirely new things you can do with BTC. Essentially, whenever you have reservations or artificial barriers in place for completing a transaction, Bitcoin enables a cut and dry value exchange minimizing or even erasing this deadweight loss. No tracking, no security leaks, no authority breathing down your neck, no middle man taking a cut or dictating terms, etc. First of all, you can buy things online without creating an account, sharing card info, etc. That in itself removes a pretty significant attack vector in case of data breaches. Several times my CCs have rejected random payments, whereas no one or nothing can stop me from paying a Lightning invoice. You can pay for completely private and encrypted AI inference, where no one but you sees your input / output. Other necessary privacy infra, especially VPNs which are seeing massive pressure from governments recently, can now be accessed more securely and anonymously. We have completely anonymous and censorship-free tipping, crowdfunding, etc. to prevent cancel culture or regulatory burdens from silencing controversial projects, individuals, protests, etc. While obtaining non-KYC Bitcoin is a challenge, Lightning is fairly private for payments. There are even better privacy solutions that integrate into Lightning as well, such as Fedimint or Cashu, although they have a temporary custodial tradeoff in order to achieve premium privacy. I think over time as we continue to build out the Bitcoin economy&#39;s infrastructure, more and more of these use cases will become apparent. I&#39;m interested to hear others&#39; thoughts on potential areas where paying with fiat is untenable, but would be viable with BTC. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/lexicon_riot [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/we-dont-appreciate-enough-how-much-incredible-commerce-gets-unlocked-with-bitcoin</link><guid>869774</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>We don't appreciate enough how much incredible commerce gets unlocked with Bitcoin</dc:text></item><item><title>When BTC shows you some mercy</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/Cryptomuscom [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/when-btc-shows-you-some-mercy</link><guid>869771</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>When BTC shows you some mercy</dc:text></item><item><title>Bitcoin in 2040</title><description><![CDATA[Just wanted to have a general discussion about where we all think BTC / the market will be in general in 40 - aka 4 halving down the line. 2028 / 2032 / 2036 / 2040 - I see a lot of wild speculation and hopium out there, but what do we think is realistic? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/IAmTheNorthwestWind [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/bitcoin-in-2040</link><guid>869698</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Bitcoin in 2040</dc:text></item><item><title>Daily Discussion, July 10, 2026</title><description><![CDATA[Please utilize this sticky thread for all general Bitcoin discussions!

Until yesterday, opening browsercoin for the first time meant downloading and re-verifying the entire chain (~26,000 blocks) before you could mine. On a decent machine that was ~20 minutes of staring at a progress bar. That&#39;s now gone. What happens now when you open the site fresh: Your browser downloads just the block headers (~3.6 MB for the whole chain) and checks every one locally: the hash linkage back to genesis, the exact difficulty schedule, timestamp rules, plus spot-checked proof-of-work on a random sample. It fetches a compact snapshot of every balance and verifies it against the state commitment inside the header chain. Every block header commits to a fingerprint of the full ledger inside its proof-of-work so a fake snapshot would require redoing the chain&#39;s mining. No server is trusted at any point. You&#39;re synced and can mine. In testing this takes seconds usually well under a minute even on slower hardware. The full block history still downloads quietly in the background (you&#39;ll see a &quot;history N%&quot; pill in the top bar). Once it finishes, your tab is a complete archival node, exactly like before it can serve the chain to other browsers, show full history, everything. So the deal is: everyone is still a full node you just don&#39;t have to verify the entire history before your first hash. Verification that used to block you now happens behind you, and if anything ever fails the check, your node throws it all away and re-syncs from genesis the old way. Credit to pijemcolu for pushing on this the suggestion and it turned out the chain design already supported something stronger: verifying the snapshot immediately against proof-of-work. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/swompythesecond [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/browsercoin-dev-update-fast-sync-new-users-can-start-mining-in-seconds-instead-of-20-minutes-on-a-fresh-device</link><guid>869695</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Browsercoin Dev Update: Fast sync! new users can start mining in seconds instead of ~20 minutes on a fresh device!</dc:text></item><item><title>Ethereal news mini #1 | Vitalik: updated Strawmap explainer, Ethlabs &amp; Ethereum Institutional hiring, Devcon 8 speaker applications open</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/abcoathup [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/ethereal-news-mini-1-vitalik-updated-strawmap-explainer-ethlabs-ethereum-institutional-hiring-devcon-8-speaker-applications-open</link><guid>869693</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Ethereal news mini #1 | Vitalik: updated Strawmap explainer, Ethlabs &amp; Ethereum Institutional hiring, Devcon 8 speaker applications open</dc:text></item><item><title>The Dead-Key Alliance: Why Satoshi’s 1.1 Million Bitcoin Will Never Move</title><description><![CDATA[Disclaimer: I’m no expert—just someone with a simple theory to share. I used AI to help organize my thoughts and make this a smoother read. A Synthesis Theory: For over a decade, the greatest mystery of the digital age has been the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto and the fate of the 1.1 million Bitcoin (worth tens of billions) sitting entirely untouched in the genesis wallets. Two major documentaries—HBO&#39;s Money Electric (pointing to Peter Todd) and the data-driven film Finding Satoshi (pointing to Hal Finney and Len Sassaman)—have attempted to unmask the creator. Both left gaps. However, when you cross-reference their findings with strict cryptographic realities, a definitive answer emerges. Satoshi Nakamoto was not an individual with superhuman discipline. Satoshi was a small, brilliant team—and the world&#39;s largest crypto fortune is permanently trapped by the unyielding mathematics they created. Part 1: The Multi-Person Team (The Lineup) Bitcoin is too multi-disciplinary to have been built by a lone genius in a vacuum. It required mastery of academic whitepaper formatting, flawless network architecture, and complex C++ coding. The evidence points to a three-man team operating under a shared pseudonym: The Academic (Len Sassaman): A brilliant young cryptographer specializing in decentralized anonymity networks. Linguistic and &quot;digital footprint&quot; data science shows Sassaman’s writing style, timezone patterns, and academic prose perfectly match the 9-page Bitcoin whitepaper. The Coder (Hal Finney): A legendary software engineer who built the closest precursor to Bitcoin (Reusable Proof of Work). He possessed the world-class C++ capability needed to code the first version of the software and famously received the first-ever Bitcoin transaction. The Architect (The Surviving Member): A third early cypherpunk pioneer—likely someone like Adam Back (inventor of Hashcash) or Nick Szabo—who acted as an advisory sounding board during the conceptual phase. Part 2: The Cryptographic Dead Man&#39;s Switch If Satoshi was a single person who is still alive today, leaving tens of billions of dollars completely dormant requires an impossible, non-human level of restraint. The far more logical reality is that the wallet is mechanically inaccessible. To prevent any single creator from going rogue and stealing the fortune, the founding team almost certainly secured the 1.1 million BTC using a Multi-Signature (Multi-sig) wallet or a split private key. To sign a transaction and move the coins, it likely required the digital keys of all three members, or a minimum threshold (e.g., 2 out of 3). Tragedy naturally triggered an unbreakable lock: April 2011: Satoshi sends a final email to developers: &quot;I’ve moved on to other things.&quot; July 2011: Len Sassaman tragically passes away at age 31. His private key fragment dies with him. August 2014: Hal Finney passes away after a long battle with ALS. A second vital key fragment is lost forever. The moment the team dissolved into history, the multi-sig structure became a mathematical vault. [ Satoshi Nakamoto Master Wallet ] │ ┌────────────┼────────────┐ ▼ ▼ ▼ [Len Sassaman] [Hal Finney] [Surviving Member] (Died 2011) (Died 2014) (Alive but ❌ ❌ Key Incomplete) │ │ │ └────────────┴────────────┘ │ ▼ [ WALLET PERMANENTLY BRICKED ] Part 3: The Trap of the Surviving Member If a third member of the Satoshi alliance is still alive today, they are trapped in a state of permanent paralysis: They cannot move the coins: Because their partners’ keys are buried in the grave, they cannot physically authorize a transaction to spend the 1.1 million BTC. They cannot claim the legacy: Even if they stepped forward to prove they were part of the team, doing so without the ability to move a single Satoshi coin would leave them exposed to extreme public scrutiny, target them by global intelligence agencies, and invite endless legal liability—all with zero financial reward. Conclusion: The Ultimate Irony Bitcoin was engineered to strip away the need to &quot;trust&quot; human beings, replacing human error with cold, unyielding mathematical certainty. The ultimate poetry of Bitcoin is that its creator’s hoard remains safe not because of human willpower, but because of the protocol&#39;s own design. The code did exactly what it was written to do: it locked out the unauthorized, even when the unauthorized were the creators themselves. Satoshi&#39;s coins are gone forever, and that is exactly why Bitcoin can live on. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/OGPRESTAR [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/the-dead-key-alliance-why-satoshis-11-million-bitcoin-will-never-move</link><guid>869593</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>The Dead-Key Alliance: Why Satoshi’s 1.1 Million Bitcoin Will Never Move</dc:text></item><item><title>SpaceX Moves Bitcoin for First Time in Six Months as $325M Stock Donation Puts Company in Spotlight</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/andix3 [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/spacex-moves-bitcoin-for-first-time-in-six-months-as-325m-stock-donation-puts-company-in-spotlight</link><guid>869592</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>SpaceX Moves Bitcoin for First Time in Six Months as $325M Stock Donation Puts Company in Spotlight</dc:text></item><item><title>Fountain codes for IBD - Bitcoin Optech Newsletter #413</title><description><![CDATA[ Bitcoin Optech newsletter #413 is here: describes research into using fountain codes to allow pruned nodes to contribute to initial block download Bitcoin Core 31.1, LND v0.20.2-beta Optech Newsletter #413 Podcast https://bitcoinops.org/en/newsletters/2026/07/10/ Lucas Lima posted to Delving Bitcoin about his latest research on using fountain codes to allow pruned nodes to contribute to Initial Block Download (IBD), without significantly increasing their storage requirements... https://bitcoinops.org/en/newsletters/2026/07/10/#using-fountain-codes-for-ibd Bitcoin Optech will host an audio recap discussion of this newsletter streaming live on X/Twitter Tuesday at 16:30 UTC. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/bitschmidty [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/fountain-codes-for-ibd-bitcoin-optech-newsletter-413</link><guid>869673</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Fountain codes for IBD - Bitcoin Optech Newsletter #413</dc:text></item><item><title>Why operational control may be the most overlooked part of RWA tokenization</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/absurdcriminality [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/why-operational-control-may-be-the-most-overlooked-part-of-rwa-tokenization</link><guid>869591</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Why operational control may be the most overlooked part of RWA tokenization</dc:text></item><item><title>Does anybody else park their Crypto on AAVE?</title><description><![CDATA[I&#39;m holding 30 AAVE tokens on an exchange and am considering bringing it over to AAVE to potentially earn some coin lending it out but am unsure of whether or not it&#39;s worth it.

One correction up front: the statute&#39;s actual name is the Virtual Currency Kiosk Consumer Protection Act, not a &quot;Bitcoin&quot; act, it covers any cash-to-crypto kiosk, not Bitcoin specifically. In practice, though, Bitcoin is what most of these machines trade, so this is the relevant read for anyone using a kiosk in NC. What changes, effective January 1, 2027: Daily transaction limits: $2,000 for new customers (first transaction within the past 30 days), $5,000 for existing customers. Aggregate fees, including spread, capped at 12%, current kiosk fees in the state reportedly run 20–30%, so this is a cut, not a hike. A 48-hour hold applies only to a customer&#39;s transactions made within their first seven days using a given operator. Mandatory interactive fraud-warning screens (10-second minimum display, yes/no scam check) before each transaction, plus a ban on QR-code/barcode login at kiosks. Kiosk operators must run blockchain analytics against the destination wallet address before releasing funds, and must hold a state money transmitter license under the Commissioner of Banks. Full refund for new customers, or fee refund for existing customers, if a transaction is reported within 30 days and the Commissioner rules it fraudulent. What it means for self-custody holders: this only touches the kiosk on-ramp/off-ramp — it doesn&#39;t touch self-custody, wallets, or on-chain activity directly. The more concrete friction is the wallet-address screening step and the 48-hour hold for first-week users. Cities and counties also keep their zoning authority, so some localities could still restrict kiosks even under this framework. Worth watching: New Jersey&#39;s SB 2141, which would ban kiosks outright rather than regulate them, has passed the full Senate and is sitting in an Assembly committee, not yet law. Indiana, Tennessee, and Minnesota have already enacted outright bans, so NC&#39;s regulate-rather-than-ban approach is currently the minority path among 2026 state actions.

The first sweep overshot the balance and failed, so the script corrected itself and took the rest 36 seconds later. No seed phrase was stolen. The victim approved a token permission that looked routine. The pattern keeps repeating because people approve signatures they cannot fully read. Two habits help on any hardware wallet. Keep keys generated and stored offline, and verify the exact permission and amount on the device&#39;s own screen before signing.

For years it was mostly a meme. In 2026 it is a fast-growing category of violent crime, and the profile of who gets hurt has quietly shifted. The numbers, from CertiK&#39;s Q1 2026 Wrench Attacks Report and French law enforcement (PNACO): These attacks rose 75% in 2025, then another 41% in Q1 2026 alone Europe now accounts for 82% of them worldwide, and France alone for 70%, roughly one attack every two and a half days More than $101M was extorted in just the first four months of 2026 And most striking: more than half of this year&#39;s victims held no crypto at all Price goes down but $5 dollar wrench attacks are going parabolic That last point is the one people miss: the victims are increasingly spouses, children and elderly parents of holders, targeted either as direct victims or as leverage. Your own operational security does not protect an elderly parent living 500km away or a kid at school in another city. And none of these relatives ever signed up to a crypto platform or consented to being in any database. Here is where policy makes it worse. Since January 2026, the EU&#39;s DAC8 directive forces crypto platforms to report each user&#39;s identity, home address, tax residence and full transaction history to tax authorities, including transactions with no relevance to any tax event. That data is then set to be automatically exchanged across all 27 member states starting in 2027. It is, functionally, a continent-wide map of who holds crypto, roughly how much, and where they live. The obvious objection is &quot;government databases are secure.&quot; The recent track record says otherwise: A French tax official was jailed in January 2026 for selling home addresses and tax profiles to criminals, specifically targeting crypto investors In Italy, corrupt police exfiltrated over a million tax, police and bank records (the Equalize case) In 18 months, more than 100 million records of French citizens were compromised from state or contractor databases The Waltio breach (a French crypto tax platform) reportedly fed directly into at least three kidnappings So the question is not hypothetical. What happens when you take a dataset like that, tie real identities to crypto holdings and home addresses, and share it across every member state of the EU, at the exact moment physical attacks against holders and their families are accelerating?

The ceremony exists to prevent any single party from retaining the secret randomness used to build the proving keys, a scenario that would let a malicious holder forge withdrawal proofs and drain deposited funds.

Isn’t that like a win-win for everyone? If we all do it, we could restore the value of Bitcoin, and we could win the Perps as well. If we needed to liquidate for some reason, we could sell our Long Perps position, and not the coin. This wouldn’t affect the value of the coin, and cause others to panic sell. I know Perps are new, and people are experimenting with it, but isn’t this a win-win?

I know people say “not your keys, not your coins” - Prefer to not have to physically own cold wallet, unless this form of exposure to crypto has the most likely chance of highest returns - if ETF, would be in brokerage and not tax advantaged account - Don’t need to buy on weekends or market after hours. Okay buying jsut during the week and DCA - Do not intend to do covered calls or anything like that - Assume Fidelity won’t go under in the next 20 years (I know it could) - I care about which has the most growth. Ultimately, I’m thinking about “is the juice worth the squeeze” for owning in cold wallet vs buying an ETF Would love for any advice you all may have &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/dabo54sweeney [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/actual-btc-vs-bitcoin-etf</link><guid>869384</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Actual BTC vs Bitcoin ETF</dc:text></item><item><title>RWAs &amp; Tokenization – Hype, Hope, or Actually Happening?</title><description><![CDATA[ &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/mrmogul914 [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/rwas-tokenization-hype-hope-or-actually-happening</link><guid>869425</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>RWAs &amp; Tokenization – Hype, Hope, or Actually Happening?</dc:text></item><item><title>Who's actually using Trezor's Shamir Backup (SLIP39) in practice and is it worth it?</title><description><![CDATA[&#32; submitted by &#32; /u/_adam_smasher_ [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/whos-actually-using-trezors-shamir-backup-slip39-in-practice-and-is-it-worth-it</link><guid>869428</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Who's actually using Trezor's Shamir Backup (SLIP39) in practice and is it worth it?</dc:text></item><item><title>Ethereum May Be Massively Undervalued: TVL Just Surpassed ETH's Market Cap</title><description><![CDATA[ Ethereum seems highly undervalued! For the first time in history, the value locked ON Ethereum is bigger than the value OF Ethereum itself! ETH fully diluted market cap: ~$210B Total value locked: ~$260B The blue area just crossed above the orange line The economy running on the chain now outweighs the asset securing it. That has never happened before, not even in the depths of 2022! Either the Ethereum economy is overbuilt, or ETH is underpriced.

I had chances to sell high last year and just... didn&#39;t. Told myself I was in it for the long haul, that timing the top was a fool&#39;s game, all the usual HODL logic. And on one level I still believe that. But some nights I do the math on what I left on the table and it stings. I am still a Bitcoin maxi but I&#39;m constantly thinking I could have doubled my BTC in a single year. For people who&#39;ve been through a few of these cycles, how do you actually make peace with a decision that felt right at the time but looks wrong in the rearview mirror? &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/0bs3ssed [link] &#32; [comments]]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/how-do-you-deal-with-the-regret-of-not-selling-at-the-top-last-year</link><guid>869381</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>How do you deal with the regret of not selling at the top last year?</dc:text></item><item><title>Who else is happily stacking?</title><description><![CDATA[ Haven&#39;t been this happy in awhile to keep stacking sats and filling my bag. &#32; submitted by &#32; /u/pomplemice [link] &#32; [comments] ]]></description><link>https://smtp.coinsnews.com/who-else-is-happily-stacking</link><guid>869382</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content /><dc:text>Who else is happily stacking?</dc:text></item></channel></rss>
