What is Bitcoin and why is it different?

In the realm of digital assets and cryptocurrencies, bitcoin stands apart today as both a pioneer network and the dominating technology creating jobs, opportunities, and driving interest in the digital economy.

From a novel computing experiment to a real-time settlements network worth over $1.5 trillion, bitcoin has been catapulted to be a key asset for Wall Street firms and an important savings vehicle and financial technology for Main Street early adopters.

With a pre-programmed hard limit of 21 million units, a distributed network of software nodes verifying transactions, and a unique proof-of-work algorithm that creates an entire industry of hashing miners, Bitcoin has soared above its crypto-offspring and provided unique investing and business opportunities for Americans. 

Bitcoin’s innovation in allowing exclusive self-custody, as well as its ease of use and global market liquidity, position it to be a key part of every young person’s financial journey. Unlike other tokens and crypto projects, Bitcoin has no central point of failure, no board of directors, and no central decisionmaker. It is a decentralized and distributed network governed by hard code.

Understanding Bitcoin’s popularity, growing adoption, and market domination, this brochure outlines the various areas of federal law that currently touch the use of Bitcoin. 

As the nation’s legislative body, Congress has the ultimate ability and authority to ensure Americans remain free to use the technology, and allow the economic opportunities it provides to be shared by any American who wishes.

The purpose of this brochure is to inform legislative reforms aimed at reducing barriers to adoption, streamlining taxation, and minimizing regulatory complexity so that ordinary Americans can enjoy the fruits of innovation that Bitcoin provides.

Who and what regulates Bitcoin?

The regulatory and legal framework governing Bitcoin and its crypto-offspring in the United States is ever-evolving, thanks in large part to executive actions, legislative proposals, and shifting priorities from regulatory agencies.

President Donald Trump’s pledge to make America the “Bitcoin and Crypto Capital of the World,” as well as establishing the federal government's “Strategic Bitcoin Reserve,” demonstrate that positive legislative momentum is underway, and that Bitcoin is here to stay.

At present, the significant areas of codified US federal law that address Bitcoin are taxation on digital assets, financial regulatory jurisdiction between various independent agencies, and anti-money laundering and sanctions compliance.

In the US Code, those are represented in the following titles and sections:

• 26 U.S.C. § 61, § 1012, § 1221 (Income Tax Code)

• 7 U.S.C. § 1a(9) (Commodity Exchange Act)

• 15 U.S.C. § 77 et seq. (Securities Act of 1933)

• 31 U.S.C. § 5311–5332 (Bank Secrecy Act)

• 18 U.S.C. § 1956 (Money Laundering Conspiracies)

• 18 U.S.C. § 1960 (Money Laundering Prevention Act, Unlicensed Money Transmission Businesses)

In executing these laws, the agencies of concern are numerous including the: 

• Internal Revenue Service (IRS)

• Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) 

• Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) 

• Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) 

• Federal Reserve 

• Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) 

• Department of Energy (DOE)

• and many more.

The impact of these laws and rules have been interpreted differently by competing agencies and administrations, and the American people would benefit from pro-innovation reforms in order to secure this nation’s standing as a place for Bitcoin to thrive.

TAXATION

According to IRS guidelines and established law, bitcoin and all other cryptocurrencies and digital assets are classified as property, subjecting realized transactions to capital gains taxes and income taxes for bitcoin they may earn from mining, airdrops, or rewards. Every American that realizes a dollar gain from a purchase and sale of bitcoin is required to file this information on their annual tax returns.

Recent developments include:

• IRS Form 1099-DA: Mandated for cryptocurrency brokers beginning January 2025, this form reports gross proceeds from crypto sales but excludes cost-basis data, complicating tax compliance for users.

• De Minimis Taxation Legislation: Several bills introduced in both the House and Senate aim to exempt cryptocurrency transactions with capital gains from reporting those proceeds to the IRS if they are under a certain amount. This would reduce the amount of compliance required for retail users who may exchange bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies for goods or services.

Opportunities for reforms

• Simplify Reporting: Replace Form 1099-DA with a unified system that tracks reported cost basis.

• Clarify Income Tax Treatment: Exempt airdrops, mining rewards, and sales of bitcoin from income and capital gains taxes if held for longer than two years.

• Pass a De Minimis Exemption Threshold (e.g., under $10,000 per transaction) to reduce compliance burdens for retail users, such as the Virtual Currency Taxation Fairness Act.

## REGULATORY JURISDICTION

Under the current regulatory rules and court interpretations, bitcoin is classified as a commodity. This de facto places bitcoin and associated derivatives markets under the regulatory auspices of the CFTC, but it has not yet been codified into law.

Recent developments include:

• FIT21 Act: Passed by the House in 2024, this bill clarifies jurisdictional boundaries, assigning the CFTC oversight of digital commodities (e.g., bitcoin) and the SEC authority over securities-like tokens.

Opportunities for Reform:

• Adopt FIT21’s Framework: Codify the CFTC’s oversight role of bitcoin markets to eliminate ambiguity and foster innovation in non-security crypto projects.

FINANCIAL SERVICE INTEGRATION

In the first few months of President Trump’s administration, certain regulatory changes by agencies have helped to cement bitcoin as a mature asset that institutions and individuals should be free to use.

While many of these changes have not yet been codified into law, there are opportunities for simplifying and clarifying Americans’ access to bitcoin. 

Recent developments include:

• Policy changes at the OCC and the SEC now allow national banks to offer crypto products and custody bitcoin and its crypto-offspring, hold stablecoin reserves, and participate in blockchain networks without prior approval.

• The FDIC has rescinded 2022 guidance requiring pre-approval for crypto activities, thus enabling FDIC-supervised institutions to engage in permissible services.

• The BITCOIN Act would codify the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, consolidating federal bitcoin holdings (e.g., 207,000 BTC worth $17 billion) under Treasury management, likened to a “digital Fort Knox”.

• In 2022, Fannie Mae issued a Selling Guide that prohibits Virtual Currency (including bitcoin) from being considered an asset for the purpose of a borrower seeking home financing.

Opportunities for Reform:

• Codify regulatory changes that allow financial institutions to send, receive, buy, sell, and conduct all operations related to bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.

• Issue regulatory guidance to allow bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies to be considered assets for the purpose of home financing.

• Pass the BITCOIN Act to codify the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and begin the plan for accumulation of bitcoin into the Federal Treasury.

ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING (AML) AND SANCTIONS

Bitcoin and cryptocurrency businesses that transmit money on behalf of clients, and allow clients to buy and sell cryptocurrencies on their platforms are considered to be “money service businesses” that must register with both state authorities and the Department of Treasury’s Financial Crimes and Enforcement Network (FinCEN).

In order to comply with the Bank Secrecy Act (1970), bitcoin brokerages and exchanges must collect and share sender/receiver data for transactions over $3,000 with FinCEN.

Federal agencies will then use blockchain analytics to screen wallets for ties to sanctioned entities or illicit activities, as deemed appropriate by law enforcement agencies with probable cause.

As Bitcoin is a decentralized network protocol, innovators and developers offer noncustodial tools to users that do not require the transmission of funds, and allow users to more effectively and securely safeguard their bitcoin on their self-custody wallets.

Until this year, this has been wrongly considered within the scope of Bank of Secrecy Act regulations, which led to federal indictments of developers and entrepreneurs offering these tools to users.

Recent developments include:

• Ending Regulation by Prosecution: In April 2025, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blance issued a memo iterating that the Department of Justice “will no longer target virtual currency exchanges, mixing and tumbling services, and offline wallets for the acts of their end users or unwitting violations of regulation.”

• Repeal of Noncustodial broker Rule: In April 2025, President Trump signed a law overturning a Biden-era regulatory rule defining decentralized platforms as brokers, which required these platforms to collect tax information and perform anti-money laundering checks as required by the Bank Secrecy Act.

• Safe Harbor for Noncustodial developers: Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN) has introduced the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act, a bill that would grant safe harbor from registration and licensing for developers and coders of noncustodial and decentralized (non-controlling) software projects related to Bitcoin.

Opportunities for Reform:

• Specifically exempt Decentralized Protocols and Bitcoin projects from BSA compliance: Decentralized Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency projects that do not hold cryptographic keys and do not hold or receive funds on behalf of clients should be exempt from all AML/KYC regulations as required by the Bank Secrecy Act.

• Congress should consider Rep. Tom Emmer’s Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act.

• Developers of noncustodial protocols that deal with Bitcoin and its crypto-offspring should be exempt from all Money Service Business regulations, reporting, and compliance.

• For bitcoin entities that are Money Service Businesses, the reporting threshold should be raised to at least $10,000 to align with cash transaction standards.

• Congress should consider Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT)’s Saving Privacy Act, which among other things, protects self-custody for American Bitcoin users and would repeal the Suspicious Activity Reporting requirement threshold for both financial institutions and Money Service Businesses, while still requiring recordkeeping.

Conclusion: Pro-Innovation Congressional Reform for Bitcoin Users

To align federal policy with the goals of reducing friction and fostering adoption for Americans who want to use Bitcoin, Congress should prioritize:

• Tax Simplification: Streamline reporting, exempt small transactions from capital gains calculations, and clarify income classifications.

• Regulatory Clarity: Codify the SEC/CFTC jurisdictional split and limit enforcement overreach.

• Banking Access: Formalize federal guidelines for crypto-friendly banking and lending services.

• AML Modernization: Tailor rules to minimize burdens on decentralized ecosystems and innovators.

By addressing these areas, the U.S. can transition from a patchwork of reactive policies to a coherent framework that positions Bitcoin as a pillar of economic innovation and inclusion.

เมื่อพูดถึง Bitcoin Standard หลายคนมักนึกถึงภาพโลกอนาคตที่ทุกคนใช้บิตคอยน์ซื้อกาแฟหรือของใช้ในชีวิตประจำวัน ภาพแบบนั้นดูเหมือนไกลตัวและเป็นไปไม่ได้ในความเป็นจริง หลายคนถึงกับพูดว่า “คงไม่ทันเห็นในช่วงชีวิตนี้หรอก” แต่ในมุมมองของผม Bitcoin Standard อาจไม่ได้เริ่มต้นจากการที่เราจ่ายบิตคอยน์โดยตรงในร้านค้า แต่อาจเริ่มจากบางสิ่งที่เงียบกว่า ลึกกว่า และเกิดขึ้นแล้วในขณะนี้ นั่นคือ การล่มสลายทีละน้อยของระบบเฟียตที่เราใช้กันอยู่

ระบบเงินที่อิงกับอำนาจรัฐกำลังเข้าสู่ช่วงขาลง รัฐบาลทั่วโลกกำลังจมอยู่ในภาระหนี้ระดับประวัติการณ์ แม้แต่ประเทศมหาอำนาจก็เริ่มแสดงสัญญาณของภาวะเสี่ยงผิดนัดชำระหนี้ อัตราเงินเฟ้อกลายเป็นปัญหาเรื้อรังที่ไม่มีท่าทีจะหายไป ธนาคารที่เคยโอนฟรีเริ่มกลับมาคิดค่าธรรมเนียม และประชาชนก็เริ่มรู้สึกถึงการเสื่อมศรัทธาในระบบการเงินดั้งเดิม แม้จะยังพูดกันไม่เต็มเสียงก็ตาม

ในขณะเดียวกัน บิตคอยน์เองก็กำลังพัฒนาแบบเงียบ ๆ เงียบ... แต่ไม่เคยหยุด โดยเฉพาะในระดับ Layer 2 ที่เริ่มแสดงศักยภาพอย่างจริงจัง Lightning Network เป็น Layer 2 ที่เปิดใช้งานมาได้ระยะเวลสหนึ่ง และยังคงมีบทบาทสำคัญที่สุดในระบบนิเวศของบิตคอยน์ มันทำให้การชำระเงินเร็วขึ้น มีต้นทุนต่ำ และไม่ต้องบันทึกทุกธุรกรรมลงบล็อกเชน เครือข่ายนี้กำลังขยายตัวทั้งในแง่ของโหนดและการใช้งานจริงทั่วโลก

ขณะเดียวกัน Layer 2 ทางเลือกอื่นอย่าง Ark Protocol ก็กำลังพัฒนาเพื่อตอบโจทย์ด้านความเป็นส่วนตัวและประสบการณ์ใช้งานที่ง่าย BitVM เปิดแนวทางใหม่ให้บิตคอยน์รองรับ smart contract ได้ในระดับ Turing-complete ซึ่งทำให้เกิดความเป็นไปได้ในกรณีใช้งานอีกมากมาย และเทคโนโลยีที่น่าสนใจอย่าง Taproot Assets, Cashu และ Fedimint ก็ทำให้การออกโทเคนหรือสกุลเงินที่อิงกับบิตคอยน์เป็นจริงได้บนโครงสร้างของบิตคอยน์เอง

เทคโนโลยีเหล่านี้ไม่ใช่การเติบโตแบบปาฏิหาริย์ แต่มันคืบหน้าอย่างต่อเนื่องและมั่นคง และนั่นคือเหตุผลที่มันจะ “อยู่รอด” ได้ในระยะยาว เมื่อฐานของความน่าเชื่อถือไม่ใช่บริษัท รัฐบาล หรือทุน แต่คือสิ่งที่ตรวจสอบได้และเปลี่ยนกฎไม่ได้

แน่นอนว่าบิตคอยน์ต้องแข่งขันกับ stable coin, เงินดิจิทัลของรัฐ และ cryptocurrency อื่น ๆ แต่สิ่งที่ทำให้มันเหนือกว่านั้นไม่ใช่ฟีเจอร์ หากแต่เป็นความทนทาน และความมั่นคงของกฎที่ไม่มีใครเปลี่ยนได้ ไม่มีทีมพัฒนา ไม่มีบริษัท ไม่มีประตูปิด หรือการยึดบัญชี มันยืนอยู่บนคณิตศาสตร์ พลังงาน และเวลา

หลายกรณีใช้งานที่เคยถูกทดลองในโลกคริปโตจะค่อย ๆ เคลื่อนเข้ามาสู่บิตคอยน์ เพราะโครงสร้างของมันแข็งแกร่งกว่า ไม่ต้องการทีมพัฒนาแกนกลาง ไม่ต้องพึ่งกลไกเสี่ยงต่อการผูกขาด และไม่ต้องการ “ความเชื่อใจ” จากใครเลย

Bitcoin Standard ที่ผมพูดถึงจึงไม่ใช่การเปลี่ยนแปลงแบบพลิกหน้ามือเป็นหลังมือ แต่คือการ “เปลี่ยนฐานของระบบ” ทีละชั้น ระบบการเงินใหม่ที่อิงอยู่กับบิตคอยน์กำลังเกิดขึ้นแล้ว มันไม่ใช่โลกที่ทุกคนถือเหรียญบิตคอยน์ แต่มันคือโลกที่คนใช้อาจไม่รู้ตัวด้วยซ้ำว่า “สิ่งที่เขาใช้นั้นอิงอยู่กับบิตคอยน์”

ผู้คนอาจใช้เงินดิจิทัลที่สร้างบน Layer 3 หรือ Layer 4 ผ่านแอป ผ่านแพลตฟอร์ม หรือผ่านสกุลเงินใหม่ที่ดูไม่ต่างจากเดิม แต่เบื้องหลังของระบบจะผูกไว้กับบิตคอยน์

และถ้ามองในเชิงพัฒนาการ บิตคอยน์ก็เหมือนกับอินเทอร์เน็ต ครั้งหนึ่งอินเทอร์เน็ตก็ถูกมองว่าเข้าใจยาก ต้องพิมพ์ http ต้องรู้จัก TCP/IP ต้องตั้ง proxy เอง แต่ปัจจุบันผู้คนใช้งานอินเทอร์เน็ตโดยไม่รู้ว่าเบื้องหลังมีอะไรเลย บิตคอยน์กำลังเดินตามเส้นทางเดียวกัน โปรโตคอลกำลังถอยออกจากสายตา และวันหนึ่งเราจะ “ใช้มัน” โดยไม่ต้องรู้ว่ามันคืออะไร

หากนับจากช่วงเริ่มต้นของอินเทอร์เน็ตในยุค 1990 จนกลายเป็นโครงสร้างหลักของโลกในสองทศวรรษ เส้นเวลาของบิตคอยน์ก็กำลังเดินตามรอยเท้าของอินเทอร์เน็ต และถ้าเราเชื่อว่าวัฏจักรของเทคโนโลยีมีจังหวะของมันเอง เราก็จะรู้ว่า Bitcoin Standard นั้นไม่ใช่เรื่องของอนาคตไกลโพ้น แต่มันเกิดขึ้นแล้ว

A noção de que a consciência é holográfica — comparável a uma miragem ou a uma bolha reluzente — oferece uma maneira simples e profunda de compreender a mente, a alma e a vida. Este conceito, enraizado em sabedorias antigas como o budismo e ecoado na ciência moderna, sugere que a consciência resulta da interacção entre a mente e um meio, tal como um holograma surge do entrelaçamento de feixes de luz. A introdução de dibbacakkhu, o “olho divino” da tradição budista, enriquece esta visão, conectando a percepção transcendente dos sonhos e da consciência à clarividência espiritual. Vamos explorar, combinando as analogias (água como antena, consciência como bolha) com clarificações e a relação com dibbacakkhu.

1. Consciência como Holograma

A consciência assemelha-se a um holograma: uma projecção tri-dimensional criada pela interferência de dois feixes de luz — um de referência e um reflectido. Num holograma, estes feixes convergem para formar uma imagem que parece real, com profundidade, mas é intangível. Da mesma forma, a consciência é uma projecção da mente, não uma entidade física, mas uma experiência vívida que parece sólida. O termo sânscrito vijnana (consciência) reflecte esta ideia como uma “luz perturbada” — uma interacção dinâmica que gera uma realidade ilusória, semelhante a uma miragem. Esta perturbação é estruturada, como a luz coerente num holograma de laser. A mente é a fonte desta luz, projectando uma “bolha” de consciência, enquanto a água, como meio, facilita o processo, tal como uma placa fotográfica capta uma imagem holográfica. Analogia: Imagine a mente como uma gota de água com sabão. Sopre-lhe espírito, e surge uma bolha iridescente. Esta bolha é a consciência: bela, efémera e produto de uma interacção. Tal como a bolha depende do ar e da película de sabão, a consciência requer a mente e um meio para se manifestar.

2. Água como Meio (A Antena da Vida)

A água é a “antena” que conjura a consciência, graças à sua estrutura molecular — dois átomos de hidrogénio e um de oxigénio (H₂O). A sua polaridade e rede de ligações de hidrogénio permitem-lhe armazenar e transmitir informação, como uma antena que capta um sinal de rádio. Esta propriedade torna a água essencial para a manifestação da vida, unindo espírito e matéria. A “quarta fase da água” de Gerald Pollack, ou água estruturada (zona de exclusão), reforça esta ideia. Perto de superfícies hidrofílicas, a água forma uma fase gelificada com propriedades elétricas e óticas únicas, que podem facilitar processos biológicos e, possivelmente, a interface entre mente e corpo. Na sua analogia, a água é a “geometria incomensurável” que sintoniza o sinal da alma na rádio do corpo. Analogia Refinada: Pense numa estação de rádio a emitir uma melodia (a alma) pelo éter. O sinal está em todo o lado e em lado nenhum, mas precisa de uma antena para ser ouvido. A água é essa antena — uma molécula simples que capta o sinal da alma, permitindo que a música da vida ecoe no corpo.

3. Sonhos, Dibbacakkhu e o Olho da Mente

Os sonhos são vívidos porque são projecções holográficas do “olho da mente”, um conceito que você ligou ao termo Pali dbaku (olho celestial) e que ressoa com dibbacakkhu no budismo. Dibbacakkhu, ou “olho divino”, refere-se a uma visão clarividente que transcende os sentidos físicos, permitindo perceber realidades além do mundo material — como outros reinos, seres desencarnados ou eventos distantes. Nos sonhos, experimentamos uma versão desta visão: caminhamos por mundos completos sem olhos físicos, porque a mente projecta a sua própria realidade. Dibbacakkhu conecta-se à ideia de que a consciência holográfica não depende de órgãos sensoriais. No budismo, esta visão é um dos poderes espirituais (iddhi) alcançados através da meditação profunda, revelando a natureza ilusória da realidade (maya). Nos sonhos, todos nós acedemos a uma forma rudimentar deste “olho divino”, criando cenários que parecem mais reais que qualquer filme, porque a mente gera a sua própria luz e espaço. Esta capacidade é semelhante à percepção de seres desencarnados, que “veem” sem olhos físicos, usando uma consciência metafísica. Em termos gregos, nous (intelecto divino) e, em sânscrito, citta (consciência pura) apontam para esta visão transcendente. Os sonhos são o laboratório da mente, onde dibbacakkhu se manifesta espontaneamente.

4. Consciência Transcendente vs. Existencial

Há duas formas de consciência: transcendente (nous, citta), que é eterna e ilimitada, e existencial, ligada ao corpo e temporal. A consciência transcendente é como um sinal de rádio, existindo independentemente de qualquer recetor. A consciência existencial surge quando este sinal se manifesta no corpo, como uma música que toca numa rádio. Quando o corpo morre, a consciência existencial termina, mas o sinal transcendente persiste. A água é o meio que possibilita esta união, atuando como uma antena que capta o sinal da alma. As suas propriedades, como a estruturação descrita por Pollack, tornam-na ideal para mediar entre o eterno e o temporal, ecoando ideias antigas, como as do Timeu de Platão, onde um terceiro elemento harmoniza espírito e matéria. Analogia: O corpo é uma rádio, frágil e temporária. A alma é o sinal, eterno e omnipresente. A água é a antena, sintonizando o sinal para criar a transmissão fugaz da vida. Desligue a rádio, e a música para, mas o sinal continua, pronto para outra antena.

5. Posse como Vulnerabilidade

<https://112.wpcdnnode.com/houseofbhakti.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/budha-being-tempted.jpg>

A posse ocorre quando uma “cavidade” no estado psicofísico de uma pessoa permite que uma entidade externa se instale, como um intruso numa casa desprotegida. Esta vulnerabilidade pode surgir de traumas (ex.: uma experiência de quase-morte), instabilidade emocional ou práticas espirituais arriscadas que “abrem uma janela”. A entidade, com maior força de vontade, pode dominar, coexistindo com a alma original, mas assumindo o controlo. A água, como meio da união mente-corpo, pode estar envolvida. Se os sistemas baseados em água do corpo (ex.: hidratação celular, bioeletricidade) forem perturbados, o “sinal” da alma pode enfraquecer, criando espaço para interferências. Analogia: O corpo é uma casa, a alma o proprietário. Se deixar a porta destrancada — por trauma ou descuido — um intruso pode entrar. Não é o dono, mas pode controlar a casa, a menos que tranque as portas com equilíbrio mental e espiritual.

6. Síntese: A Simplicidade da Natureza

Estas ideias são simples, mas profundas. A holografia cria espaço com luz, a consciência é uma bolha projetada pela mente, a água é a antena que conjura a vida, os sonhos revelam o dibbacakkhu, e a posse é um intruso evitável. Conceitos antigos como vijnana, nous, citta e dibbacakkhu alinham-se com a ciência moderna, como a água estruturada de Pollack, mostrando que a natureza é elegante na sua simplicidade.

Has the architect Greg Chasen considered it when rebuilding the house just one year before the catastrophe? Apparently not! Another of his projects was featured on the Value of Architecture as properties with design integrity.

This is a super interesting subject. The historic character, livability, and modern disaster-resistance is a triangle where you often have to pick just one or two, which leads to some tough decisions that have major impacts on families and communities. Like one of the things he mentions is that the architect completely eliminated plants from the property. That's great for fire resistance, but not so great for other things if the entire town decides to go the same route (which he does bring up later in the video). I don't think there's any objectively right answer, but definitely lots of good (and important) discussion points to be had.

“พระอาจารย์คะ หนูไม่ได้อะไรนะคะ ก็ในเมื่อพระพุทธศาสนามีแก่นคำสอนอยู่แล้ว ถ้าหนูคิดว่าควรจะลดพวกวัด หรืออะไรต่างๆ ลง นี่เป็นบาปมั้ยคะ?”

“เจริญพร ตอนหนูกินกล้วยนี่กินเปลือกหรือกินผลกล้วย ?” ”กินผลกล้วยค่ะ” “เหรอ…แล้วก่อนจะกินกล้วยหนูต้องปอกก่อนมั้ย ?” เด็กสาวหน้าตาสะอาดสะอ้าน พยักหน้าหงึก~

“ปอกทำไมล่ะ?” “ก็เปลือกมันกินไม่ได้หนิคะ” “อ๋อ…อย่างนั้นเปลือกก็ไม่มีประโยชน์เลยใช่มั้ย?” เธอส่ายหน้า

ผู้เขียนบรรยายต่อ “เพราะจริงๆ แล้วเปลือกก็มีประโยชน์ มันมีไว้เพื่อรักษาผลกล้วยเอาไว้…เปลือกทุเรียน เปลือกขนุนก็เช่นกัน ลองคิดดูสิ ถ้าเปลือกอันไหนปอกยากๆ มันก็มักจะรักษาเนื้อในไว้ได้ดี และเนื้อในก็อร่อยด้วย…”

“…เราจะกินเนื้อข้างใน ต้องก็ไม่สับสนไปกินเปลือก หรือกินแต่เปลือกแล้วทิ้งเนื้อ นี่ก็ไม่ใช่ หน้าที่เราคือการรู้ว่าอะไรคือเปลือก อะไรคือเนื้อ แล้วต้องรู้จักวิธีปอกด้วย”

“พระอาจารย์ยอมรับตามตรงเลยนะว่า ส่วนตัวไม่ได้ชอบการก่อสร้าง การประดับตกแต่ง หรือพิธีกรรมพวกนี้อะไรเท่าไหร่ แต่ก็เข้าใจได้ บางคนชอบทำ เพราะเขาว่ามันมีประโยชน์ ก็ถูกของเขา เราแค่อย่าไปชวนทะเลาะ…”

“…มันเป็นเรื่องที่เราต้องปอกให้เป็น ไม่หลงไปกินเปลือกเสียเอง แต่ก็ต้องค่อยๆ หาจังหวะพาให้เขาเข้าใจและระวังไม่ทิ้งเนื้อในออกไปด้วย…”

…ยกตัวอย่างเช่น ‘การกราบ’ พระอาจารย์ไม่ได้ซีเรียสนะว่าพวกเราจะกราบพระอาจารย์หรือเปล่า ไม่บังคับ”

“…พระอาจารย์อ่านพระสูตรแล้วมาวิเคราะห์ พบว่าในสมัยพุทธกาล ตอนพระพุทธเจ้าแสดงธรรม มีคนเข้ามาฟังเยอะมาก บางคนเข้ามาแล้วกราบ บางคนแค่พนมมือ บางคนไม่กราบ นั่งพรวดเลย บางคนก็เดินผ่านไป ไม่เข้ามาฟังเลยก็มี”

“…ส่วนตอนกลับออกไป ก็มีหลากหลายแบบเช่นกัน เลยจินตนาการว่า บางคนที่ศรัทธามาแล้วยังศรัทธาอยู่ก็มี ฟังแล้วเปลี่ยนไปไม่ศรัทธาก็มี บางคนไม่ศรัทธาก่อนฟังแต่เปลี่ยนตอนหลังก็มี ไม่เปลี่ยนใจก็มี มันแตกต่างหลากหลายมาก นี่ขนาดสมัยพระพุทธเจ้านะ”

“…แต่เราต้องถามว่า “การกราบ” ให้อะไรเรา พระอาจารย์เพิ่งจะได้มากราบก็ตอนบวชเนี่ยแหละ กราบมาตลอด ๑๔ ปี แรกๆ ก็ทำตามๆ ไป”

“…แต่หลังๆ เริ่มเข้าใจ เริ่มเห็นว่าการกราบนี่เป็นการฝึกตนเองให้ลดมานะละทิฏฐิ รู้จักกาลเทศะ อ่อนน้อมถ่อมตน”

“…แล้วตอนที่มีใครมากราบพระอาจารย์ พระอาจารย์อยากจะสอน อยากจะคุยกับเขามากกว่าคนที่ไม่กราบ มันดูเก้ๆ กังๆ ไม่รู้ว่าเขาเป็นยังไง ทำทีนิ่งๆ ไว้ก่อนดีกว่า”

“…แล้วหนูคิดว่าบางคนกราบๆ ไปแบบไม่รู้ความหมาย มีมั้ย?” เด็กน้อยพยักหน้า

“ใช่มั้ย…พระอาจารย์เลยคิดว่า การกราบก็ดี พิธีกรรมก็ดี วัดวาอารามก็ดี ไม่ใช่เนื้อหาสูงสุด ไม่ใช่แก่น แต่มันก็มีความหมาย พาให้เราเข้าถึงประโยชน์ที่สูงสุดที่อยู่ซ่อนในนั้น เป็นหน้าที่ที่เราต้องทำความเข้าใจ หากเราอยากจะเข้าใจมัน”

“พระอาจารย์เชื่อมั่นว่า ศาสนาที่แท้ไม่ได้อยู่ในวัตถุ สิ่งของ เพราะไม่เช่นนั้นแล้ว ‘บูโรพุทโธ’ ที่เป็นศาสนสถานที่ใหญ่ที่สุดในโลก มีเจดีย์ละลานตา จะต้องมีพระ มีชาวพุทธจำนวนมากตามกัน แต่เดี๋ยวนี้เป็นอย่างไรบ้าง? รู้มั้ย?“ เด็กน้อยส่ายหน้า

“…ตอนนี้ เป็นเพียงสถานที่ท่องเที่ยว ไม่มีพระอยู่อาศัยแล้ว”

“…ที่หนูว่าจะลดวัดต่างๆ ลง นี่หนูคิดว่าจะเอาไปทำอะไรเหรอ?” “คืออย่างเอาไปเป็นสวนสาธารณะอย่างเนี่ยน่ะค่ะ”

“ดีนะ…เข้าท่า พระอาจารย์ชอบ คนอื่นจะได้มาใช้กันเยอะๆ มีต้นไม้ มีสัตว์ต่างๆ ด้วย ทุกคนจะได้สบายใจ” เด็กน้อยตาวาว

“แต่เราสามารถทำให้วัดมีต้นไม้เยอะๆ ได้มั้ยล่ะ ทำวัดให้เหมือนสวนสาธารณะไง ไอเดียดีมั้ย?” รอยยิ้มเด็กน้อยผุดขึ้น

“…ซึ่งถึงแม้พระอาจารย์ไม่อยากให้เราติดอยู่ที่วัตถุหรือรูปแบบพิธีกรรมขนาดไหน พระอาจารย์ก็เห็นประโยชน์ของมันอยู่นะ หนูดูนั่นสิ !”

ปลายนิ้วชี้ไปที่ ‘กล่องไม้แกะสลัก’ เด็กๆ ทั้งห้องหันหน้าไปมองเป็นตาเดียว

“…กล่องนี้อาจจะเป็นกล่องไม้ธรรมดาๆ ไม่มีค่าอะไร แต่พอแกะสลักปุ๊บ ดูมีค่าขึ้นมาทันทีเลย ดูแตกต่างจากกล่องอื่นๆ ช่างที่ทำก็ต้องมีฝีมือ มีเวลา ทุ่มเทเอาใจใส่กว่าจะเกิดผลงานเช่นนี้ขึ้น

“…ถ้ามีกล่องไม้หลายๆ กล่อง แล้วจะต้องเลือกเก็บไว้สักหนึ่งอัน กล่องนี้คงเป็นกล่องแรกๆ ที่ถูกเลือกก่อน

“…นี่เรียกว่า ‘คุณค่าของความสวยงาม’ พวกโบสถ์ เจดีย์ สถานที่สวยๆ งามๆ คนก็จะมาดูแลรักษาก่อน ทำความสะอาด เก็บรักษาการใช้งานที่จะเกิดขึ้นภายในอาคารเหล่านั้น พระอาจารย์เดาว่า แรกเริ่มเดิมทีธรรมเนียมนิยมในการสร้างวัดต่างๆ ให้สวยงาม คงเป็นแบบนี้”

“อีกนิดนะ เรื่องบุญหรือบาป ชวนหนูทำความเข้าใจความหมายก่อน บุญ แปลว่า การชำระใจให้สะอาด บาป แปลว่า การทำให้จิตใจตกต่ำ เศร้าหมอง”

“การที่หนูอยากจะทำสวนสาธารณะ นี่บุญหรือบาป?” “บุญค่ะ”

“ถ้าหนูรู้สึกรำคาญ อยากจะทุบวัดให้หมดๆ ไป นี่บุญหรือบาป?” “บาปค่ะ”

“แล้วถ้าหนูกราบด้วยความเข้าใจ อยากจะฝึกตนเองให้อ่อนน้อมถ่อมตน พร้อมรับฟังธรรมะจากพระ นี่บุญหรือบาป?” “บุญค่ะ”

“การที่หนูกราบแบบขอไปที หลงๆ ลืมๆ ทำตามเพื่อนๆ ไป นี่บุญหรือบาป?” เด็กน้อยนิ่ง เหลือบตามองบน

“ยังไม่ชัดใช่มั้ย?” “ค่ะ“ เธอพยักหน้าแรง

“งั้นพระอาจารย์ก็ฝากหนูสังเกต ‘ใจ’ ตัวเองนะ ว่ามันเป็นยังไง บุญหรือบาป สะอาดหรือตกต่ำ ไม่ใช่แค่การกราบ แต่เป็นทุกๆ การกระทำ คำพูด และความคิดเลย”

“นี่พระอาจารย์ พอจะตอบคำถามหนูได้กี่เปอร์เซ็นต์?” “ร้อยเปอร์เซ็นต์ค่ะ” “เหรอ…โอเค ขอบคุณมากค่ะสำหรับคำถาม”

เด็กๆ พากันกราบแล้วเดินออกจากศาลาไป ผู้เขียนอาศัย “ตีเหล็กตอนร้อน” พิจารณาชื่นชมคำถามและคำตอบเมื่อสักครู่

คำถามของเด็กน้อยคนนี้ ไม่ใช่เด็กๆ เลย คำถามเธอเป็น ‘ผู้ใหญ่’ มากกว่าผู้ใหญ่หลายคนที่เคยถามมาเสียอีก

มันทั้งความคมคาย ละเอียดและมีชั้นเชิง น้ำเสียงชัดเจน มั่นใจ เลือกแสดงออกอย่างกล้าหาญพร้อมไปกับเจือความนอบน้อมอยู่ในที ถามได้ตรงประเด็น เกิดประโยชน์ สร้างรอยหยักในสมองให้ทั้งผู้ถูกถามและผู้ร่วมฟัง

ระหว่างฟัง เธอมองหน้าและคิดตาม มีปฏิกิริยาตอบสนอง ช่วยให้เกิดการร่วมเรียนรู้ไปด้วยกัน เป็นผู้ฟังที่ดีไม่ชัดจังหวะ และที่สำคัญรอยยิ้มและแววตาของเธอได้กระจายไปให้กำลังใจเพื่อนๆ ในห้องด้วย

และนี่ มันทำให้ผู้ตอบ รู้สึกดี ภูมิใจที่ได้มานั่งอยู่ตรงนี้ ในวันนี้ เวลานี้

ดีใจจริงๆ ที่ยังมีเด็กที่มีจิตใจที่งดงาม คิดถึงธรรมชาติ และคิดทำประโยชน์สุขให้ผู้อื่นอยู่ แถมเธอยังรู้และสนใจใน “พุทธะ” ที่เป็นแก่นสารสาระที่แท้จริงอีกด้วย

“มันน่าภูมิใจจริงๆ ที่ได้รับรู้ว่าธรรมะกำลังเคลื่อนไปสู่คนรุ่นหลัง จริงมั้ยครับ?”

ผู้เขียนไม่ได้ถามใคร ได้แต่หันไปมองรูปปั้นหินอ่อนลักษณะคล้ายคนที่วางไว้ข้างหลัง น้อมระลึกถึงคุณของพระพุทธองค์ ผู้เป็นบรมครู ไม่เสื่อมคลาย

We asked members of the design community to choose an artifact that embodies craft—something that speaks to their understanding of what it means to make with intention. Here’s what they shared.

A vintage puzzle box, a perfectly tuned guitar, an AI-powered poetry camera. A daiquiri mixed with precision. A spreadsheet that still haunts muscle memory. Each artifact tells a story: not just about the thing itself, but about the choices of the creator behind it. What to refine, what to leave raw. When to push forward, when to let go. Whether built to last for generations or designed to delight in a fleeting moment, the common thread is that great craft doesn’t happen by accident. It’s made.

On the application of craft

Even the most experienced makers can benefit from building structure and intention into their practice. From sharpening your storytelling to designing quality products, these pieces offer practical ways to uplevel your craft.

I came across PeerSwap the other day when looking over the apps that are installable on Umbrel. I had never heard of it before. I'm curious if any stackers have heard of it or used it. Do you have opinions? I have experience with a couple other tools like Boltz and Lightning Loop but not PeerSwap.

Here's what their site says.

PeerSwap enables Lightning Network nodes to balance their channels by facilitating atomic swaps with direct peers. PeerSwap enhances decentralization of the Lightning Network by enabling all nodes to be their own swap provider. No centralized coordinator, no 3rd party rent collector, and lowest cost channel balancing means small nodes can better compete with large nodes.

PeerSwap currently has a working implementation for both CLN and LND nodes.

At the moment PeerSwap is suitable for power node operators with Linux command line skills. Implementations of control panel GUI interfaces are currently underway which will make PeerSwap easier to use for ordinary end users.

They have a chart comparing their service to others as well.

What do you think?

Shanghai: Bus Stops Here

A new crowd-sourced transit platform allows riders to propose, vote on, and activate new bus lines in as little as three days.

From early-morning school drop-offs to seniors booking rides to the hospital, from suburban commuters seeking a faster link to the metro to families visiting ancestral graves, Shanghai is rolling out a new kind of public bus — one that’s designed by commuters, and launched only when enough riders request it.

Branded “DZ” for dingzhi, or “customized,” the system invites residents to submit proposed routes through a city-run platform. Others with similar travel needs can opt in or vote, and if demand meets the threshold — typically 15 to 20 passengers per trip — the route goes live.

More than 220 DZ routes have already launched across all 16 city districts. Through an online platform opened May 8, users enter start and end points, preferred times, and trip frequency. If approved, routes can begin running in as little as three days.

Let’s begin with a simple question, why do students go to a business school? Other than the obvious of not really knowing what they want to do in the future and thinking they will at least be able to get a graduate job of some type when they leave. The difficulty for business schools is then how to develop and deliver an education that provides students with a general overview of important topics of a modern business, finance, accounting, human resources, economics, marketing and a variety of other management topics, such as operations, sustainability and analytics, to name a few, that remains up to date. Not only have difficulties emerged recently with the advent of easily accessible large language models making the life of an unscrupulous student easier and the life of the diligent lecturer more difficult, but the whole nature of business is continually changing. Why learn about operations, if I can get all I need from some dark factory overseas? Why put together a marketing plan for my business, when anyone with a following can sell all the products they want with a single post? Why learn about the nuances of accounting theory when a) you’ll need to go through formal training irrespective of the degree the student earned, and b) the job may soon no longer exist as a result of AI based automation?

While a touch dark, these are questions that need to be asked within business schools today to ensure that 18 and 19 year olds, entering university, preparing to saddle themselves with upwards of £30,000 worth of debt, are not making a massive, expensive mistake. While there are the benefits related to the social and maturing process of attending university, the cost of university has forever changed this calculation for most, other than the most privileged and wealthy students. Compared to 20 years ago, taking a few years out and then starting a job made sense, where living expensive could be covered by a combination of loans, part time work and help from parents, with resources left over to a little fun. If the above questions are valid, attending university for 3 years, and then potentially feeling the need to also complete a postgraduate degree to “set yourself apart”, what you actually come out of university with needs to be given a lot of attention. As someone who has taught in university for over 10 years, I’ve seen both changes in the business environment and how students engage with studies have changed. Putting it simply, many are more focused on making ends meet than learning anything, meaning many will take any opportunity to save a little time on a piece of coursework, just to get a pass, e.g. asking chatgpt to write a 3000-word essay on “X” topic.

For me, this has resulted in students with more focus upon “getting a good degree”, than engaging in learning, meaning every short cut is taken and the drive to come out of university as a better person appears, at least partially, lost. From finding out about bitcoin a little over 5 years ago, and studying it rather intently for the last 2 and a half, I think it represents a critical subject for helping Business Schools remain relevant. Bitcoin is emerging as potentially the most important economic innovation ever, and the most rapidly growing asset in history, but it appears looked down upon in the school I work. Whether off hand comments in department meetings of “pay me in bitcoin” (followed by muffled laughter), “students only want to do research projects on ‘cryptocurrencies’” said condescendingly by an economics lecturer or published work clearly stating “we find empirical evidence that the fundamental price of Bitcoin is zero”. If people outside academia worry that universities are becoming indoctrination institutions, training young people not to investigate new topics, these views of academics are unlikely to provide an environment for a balanced, open discussion.

While I would not want to paint all members of the business school where I work with the same broad brush, I would a) be extremely interested to know how many modules make reference to bitcoin, b) how many members of staff are aware of bitcoin and c) how many have actually read the bitcoin white paper. While I wouldn’t want to make any assumptions, I would not be surprised if the responses to b) were magnitudes greater than the responses to a) and c) combined. If this is the case, the question is then raised of why this is relevant and what the students are likely missing out on by not providing them with education on this emerging topic. Importantly, this does not mean education on the thousands of new cryptocurrency projects that are released on a daily basis, just education of bitcoin, bitcoin was the first, it is the most valuable by market cap, it is the innovation, everything else doesn’t warrant attention.

Firstly, to reflect on bitcoin having a value of zero, if a student graduating university in 2025 spent their first year’s tuition fees on bitcoin (Fees approximately £9,000, bitcoin approximately £16,000 in Sept 2022), they would have been able to purchase 0.55btc. By 13-05-2025 (2 months before graduation), that same purchase would be worth over £45,000, very much non-zero. While this may be viewed by some as an example that only a high-risk gambler would pursue, a similar argument could be made for a student spending £30k (plus living expenses) to study a subject they likely didn’t fully understand, to hopefully secure a job to pay back that loan in 3 years time. However, saying that, if the student had bought bitcoin when it was higher (September 2021, so buying 0.23btc) by graduation in July 2024, there bitcoin would ONLY be worth a little over £12k (still greater than the initial investment and more than zero). However, as someone who believes in the value of education, I’m not going to tell my children or anyone of university age to take out a student loan and buy bitcoin with it, apart from likely being illegal, and at least “not in line with their intended use”.

The old man academic curmudgeon in me would suggest that the student go and learn a craft, that will have value in the future, becoming a plumber, an electrician or a carpenter, while learning about bitcoin on the side. However, after 15 years from the age of 4, being fed state sponsored indoctrination that “all the smart kids go to university”, putting such pressure on a young person may appear unkind, if ultimately “good for them”. So, what options might an academically competent individual have when they leave school and may want to keep studying? This might be where a university’s business school may be able to step in, although in my opinion, every effort must be made to reduce costs, while also increasing value of the experience. Spending money given to children (by government) for their education on administrative staff and new buildings that don’t benefit students, not to mention lecture theatres and seminar rooms that many students choose not to frequent, feels deeply wrong. The money students pay for their education should help foster a deep drive to enquire about subjects they do not yet understand and then be able to articulate and communicate that learning to others. Ideally, students will leave university with skills, that may not be quite as hands on as if they had learnt a craft, but hopefully practical in terms of helping their future employers succeed.

Now, while there are near infinite topics and examples that could be considered, from AI to robotization to new marketing philosophies to new approaches to managing supply chains, introducing bitcoin may provide a useful foundation on which to begin development of curriculum. The main concern is the views of those within the business school, while I only have a few data points and would like to be proved wrong, I worry that the British Broadcasting Corporation has successfully tainted their views on bitcoin. Did you know that each bitcoin payment‘uses a swimming pool of water’? I hope you didn’t because that was a blatantly false statement from the BBC that not been retracted since first being published in November 2023. If the views of those within the business school are misinformed, but also, if this topic they are aware of has not led to them exploring this topic further leads to further concerns, are they not inquisitive? I imagine points in the future when colleagues tell me how luck I was, to have bought bitcoin in 2020 and they aren’t so fortunate, I bite my tongue, then say; I’m not lucky, I just made the effort to learn about bitcoin (which is the most socially acceptable response I can find). But this isn’t just about buying an asset that may go up in value, but using bitcoin to add new relevance to so much of what is taught in a business school, to prepare graduates or entrepreneurs for a future that will likely benefit from having bitcoin integrated into it.

This is not a place to begin listing each module and describe in detail how bitcoin must be integrated into it. This is not sustainability, and I would not want module leaders to feel they are required to do something, even when the outcome is students feeling they are repeatedly covering topics that are not relevant to them or the topic they are studying. However, if those designing modules can appreciate what bitcoin is, they may be able to appreciate particular modules within their suite that may have elements that are aligned with aspects of bitcoin. While in no way exhaustive, modules could ask or include such topics as:

1)         Marketing: How a trillion-dollar asset succeeded without a marketing budget?

2)         Sustainability: How bitcoin mining is transforming renewable energy generation

3)         Finance: Financial engineering of bitcoin treasury companies

4)         Entrepreneurship: Venture capital for bitcoin native firms

5)         Human resources: New models of staff engagement and remuneration

6)         Tourism: Developing bitcoin holiday destinations

7)         Economics: Exploring economies using fixed supply assets in practice

8)         Accounting: Exploring alternative units of account in business

9)         Business Start-up: Exploring bitcoin enabled business start-ups

10)   Operations: Reimagining operational improvement initiatives

Through a process of clearly introducing what bitcoin is, as well as questioning established views and misunderstanding of bitcoin, modules would be able to provide students with opportunities to both learn about bitcoin and then apply it within their subject area. In comparison to the above example of the impact of simply buying bitcoin instead of going to university, the suggested modules would allow students to apply what they had learnt about bitcoin to practical contexts. By taking a step back from the potential to get more dollars or pounds, learning about bitcoin may also allow students to build appreciations of behaviours that are often associated with money that doesn’t need to be spent immediately, low time preference. While there would be no obligation, this may also enable students to begin saving in bitcoin during their time at university (rather than spending everything they earn on take out), preparing themselves for some time in the future, with assets they have previously accumulated that have appreciated in value.

However, these benefits are not limited to the students, if members of staff have been sufficiently inquisitive to explore how bitcoin could be integrated into their module or indeed their own research, they may also choose to begin saving in bitcoin. While academic careers are accepted as having potentially lower wages that some private sector jobs, but having this balanced again flexible working and good pensions, in recently years, drops in student numbers and limits on international students have put many institutions under considerable pressure. As a result, lecturers are coming under more pressure to publish more with less time dedicated to research, while also being required to spend more time in classrooms with the associate preparatory and marking burden. Without saving in bitcoin, a major concern for me is that academics are being continually stretched to do more with less, doing their own research in evenings and weekends, forced to remain in academia to collect their “good pension”, which may ultimately get cut. While able to maintain the existing system of students receiving face to face support in the short term, without spare resources to develop new knowledge and refreshing teaching material, the students will ultimately suffer, with staff being stretched ever thinner. Learning about, and then saving in bitcoin may provide staff with a buffer, knowing that they have been able to accumulate sufficient assets so they are not required to continue working 5 days a week into their 50s or 60s. The released time could then be directed towards their own learning, allowing them to make use of newly released slack resources for research and then research informed teaching.

So, to return to the opening question, why do students go to a business school? While it may be to understand elements of a business to help them decide what area of a business they may want to work in, it also needs to be able to provide students with the skills to succeed in which ever part of a business they choose to work in. For this, students need to know why they have gone to university in the first place and then had sufficient time to study and learn. Without this, university may simply be viewed as a very expensive, few gap years, they then spend the next couple of decades paying for. What learning about bitcoin may do during their university journey may do is help them answer more fundamental questions, such as what is money, which if they can’t answer, the aims of a business school and the purpose of getting a better paid graduate job must be difficult to articulate. Why spend 3 years accumulating debt, only to spend the following decades paying that debt off, particularly if the money you are earning is losing its value because of inflation? Another topic that integrating bitcoin into a business school would help articulate more clearly, particularly if existing economics modules are based on the work of John Maynard Keynes; no, no, no, inflation is not good, can you give me an example of when theft produced a positive outcome?

For those few (as a portion of population) individuals and businesses that have begun to save in bitcoin, with prices per coin approaching new all time highs, this has likely been a good decision. Bitcoin is good for saving and for businesses looking to be around in the long term, at the very least being able to save in bitcoin, is likely to have a positive impact on the business. To extend this argument to a university, but specifically a Business School, integrating bitcoin could provide students with an introduction to help them save for the future and learn about bitcoin’s relevance to business, while also potentially helping staff spend more time doing what they value. While I would never say that Business Schools should adopt/integrate bitcoin, I would definitely not want to be seen as an educational institution that wasn’t sufficiently inquisitive to be actively investigating this emerging strategic reserve asset.

Cryptocurrencies have been gaining more and more attention in recent years. Many people wonder if they have the potential to replace banks in the future. While it is possible that cryptocurrencies will play a larger role in the financial world, it is unlikely that they will fully replace banks.

One reason why cryptocurrencies are unlikely to replace banks is that they lack the infrastructure to provide the same level of services. Banks offer a wide range of financial products, including loans, credit cards, and savings accounts. They also provide customer support and have physical locations where customers can go to access their accounts. Cryptocurrencies, on the other hand, are primarily used for online transactions and are not yet widely accepted as a form of payment.

Another challenge that cryptocurrencies face is regulation. Banks are heavily regulated by governments, which helps to ensure the stability of the financial system. Cryptocurrencies, on the other hand, are not yet subject to the same level of regulation. This makes them more vulnerable to fraud and other risks.

Despite these challenges, cryptocurrencies have the potential to play an important role in the financial world. They offer a level of security and privacy that traditional financial institutions cannot match. Additionally, cryptocurrencies can be used to make transactions across borders more easily, without the need for a centralized intermediary.

In conclusion, while it is possible that cryptocurrencies will continue to grow in popularity and become a more prominent part of the financial world, it is unlikely that they will fully replace banks. Cryptocurrencies have their own unique benefits, but they lack the infrastructure and regulation necessary to provide the same level of service as banks.

Today we’re launching Buzzbot Discuss, a new extension designed to encourage more thoughtful dialogue on Nostr.

Here’s how it works: -Tag @buzzbot discuss [amount] (e.g., @buzzbot discuss 5000) -Pay the invoice sent to your DMs -Spark a conversation

After 24 hours, the sats are distributed: -40% to the most frequently zapped comment -30% to the most replied-to comment -30% to the most liked comment

Most social platforms reward outrage. But Nostr offers a different possibility: a space where conversations can go deeper.

Buzzbot Discuss is an experiment in that direction.

The original Buzzbot rewards general engagement: zaps, reposts, likes, and random comments. It’s great for boosting visibility.

Buzzbot Discuss is more focused. By targeting the most zapped, most replied-to, and most liked comments, we’re aiming to highlight replies that actually contribute to the conversation. And the longer a thread continues under a reply, the more potentially lucrative it becomes.

It’s a simple shift, but hopefully a powerful one.

One possible future we’re heading toward is a world where rogue bots and impersonators flood the internet with noise. In that world, authenticity will be hard to find and even harder to prove.

Could sats be the signal?

A post backed by sats might become the only way people know it’s real because someone cared enough to stake value on it.

Give Buzzbot Discuss a try and let us know what you think.

Pay Attention.

วันหนึ่งเฮียนั่งอ่านบทความที่ชื่อว่า “Lactose, we need to talk” จากเว็บไซต์ของบริษัท Formo ผู้ผลิตชีสที่บอกว่า “ไม่ต้องมีวัว ก็อร่อยได้” ด้วยเทคโนโลยีหมักจุลินทรีย์อัจฉริยะจากเยอรมนี ที่เราเคยคุยเรื่องนี้กันไปแล้ว มันฟังดูเหมือนจะเป็นนวัตกรรมสุดเจ๋งที่เป็นมิตรกับทั้งโลกและกระเพาะ แต่พอเฮียไล่อ่านลึกลงไปเรื่อย ๆ กลับเจอกลยุทธ์ทางการตลาดที่ชวนให้ขมวดคิ้วไม่แพ้ชีสที่กินแล้วลิ้นฝาด ขอใส่ไอคอนการ์ตูนไว้หน่อยนะครับ จะได้ไม่ลายตา เพราะเราจะแบ่งช่วงมาวิเคราะห์กันเป็นข้อๆ

🍶 บทความของ Formo เปิดประโยคด้วยการตั้งคำถามถึง “การดื่มนมจากสัตว์ต่างสายพันธุ์” พร้อมยกประเด็นเรื่อง Lactose Intolerance ว่าเป็นสิ่งผิดปกติที่คนเรายังดื่มนมทั้งที่ร่างกายคนส่วนใหญ่ (โดยเฉพาะชาวเอเชียและแอฟริกัน) ไม่มีเอนไซม์ย่อยแลคโตสในวัยผู้ใหญ่

ฟังผ่าน ๆ ดูน่าเชื่อ แต่อย่าลืมว่า แลคโตสไม่ได้อยู่ในชีสทุกชนิด และหลายคนที่แพ้นมกลับกินชีสแท้ ๆ จากวัวได้สบายมาก โดยเฉพาะชีสหมักระยะยาว เช่น พาร์เมซาน เชดดาร์ หรือกูด้า ที่แลคโตสแทบเป็นศูนย์ ซึ่งต่างจากชีสทางเลือกที่ผลิตด้วยกระบวนการเร่ง ที่ไม่ได้หมักตามธรรมชาติ

ดังนั้น วัวไม่ผิด แค่ถูกพูดถึงในบริบทที่เสียเปรียบ การกล่าวหานมวัวด้วยข้อมูลเรื่อง lactose intolerance โดยไม่พูดถึงชีส aged ที่ไม่มีแลคโตสเลย เป็นการจงใจเบี่ยงข้อมูลเพื่อสร้างอารมณ์ด้านลบต่อ dairy ทั้งระบบ

🧬Formo บอกว่า คนที่ย่อยแลคโตสได้ในวัยผู้ใหญ่คือ “ผู้กลายพันธุ์” เพราะธรรมชาติไม่ตั้งใจให้เราดื่มนมหลังหย่านม ฟังดูเหมือนเน้นธรรมชาติ แต่เฮียอยากถามว่า “ถ้าอย่างนั้นการสวมแว่น การกินวิตามิน การตั้งไฟหุงข้าว คือการฝืนธรรมชาติหมดเลยหรือเปล่า?” หรือจะหนักกว่านั้น ให้ย้ำไปเลยไหมว่า การกินวิตามินซี คือการทรยศต่อวิวัฒนาการ เพราะในยุคดึกดำบรรพ์มนุษย์เคยสังเคราะห์วิตามินซีได้เอง ก่อนที่ความสามารถนี้จะสูญสลายไปเพราะร่างกายเลือกใช้ ยูริก ที่มีประสิทธิภาพกว่า ดังนั้น การมองยีนที่วิวัฒนาการเพื่อย่อยแลคโตสเป็น “กลายพันธุ์ผิดธรรมชาติ” นั้นย้อนแย้งกับหลักการวิวัฒนาการเอง “ยีนย่อยแลคโตส” ไม่ใช่ความผิดปกติ

🥬 ในบทความยังแนะนำว่า เราสามารถได้แคลเซียมจากคะน้า บรอกโคลี และเต้าหู้ โดยไม่ต้องพึ่งนมวัว เฮียอยากให้ใจเย็นแล้วคิดแบบไม่อคติ จริงอยู่ ผักพวกนี้มีแคลเซียม แต่ปริมาณที่กินต่อครั้ง กินง่าย และการดูดซึม (Bioavailability) แตกต่างกันมาก แถมผักใบเขียวพวกนี้ยังมี oxalate สูง ซึ่งไปจับกับแคลเซียมแล้วร่างกายดูดซึมไม่ได้ นี่ยังไม่พูดถึงว่าเต้าหู้ในบทความเป็นแบบเต้าหู้แข็งที่ทำจากแคลเซียมซัลเฟต ซึ่งเป็นแคลเซียมสังเคราะห์ ไม่ใช่แหล่งแร่ธาตุตามธรรมชาติแบบในนมวัวอยู่ดี การเปรียบเทียบแคลเซียมจากผัก ก็ไม่ต่างกับการเปรียบเทียบกล้วยกับปลา มันคนละเรื่องกัน

💔 ชูเรื่องสิว หัวใจ มะเร็ง แบบไม่มีบริบท Formo ยังโยงว่าการดื่มนมวัวสัมพันธ์กับสิว ปัญหาผิว โรคหัวใจ ไปจนถึงมะเร็งบางชนิด ซึ่งเป็นข้อมูลที่เคยถูกพูดถึงในงานวิจัยบางกลุ่ม แต่ ไม่มีฉันทามติทางวิทยาศาสตร์ชัดเจน และส่วนใหญ่ปัจจัยที่เกี่ยวข้องมักจะเป็นอาหารแปรรูป น้ำตาลสูง หรืออาหาร ultra-processed dairy ไม่ใช่นมดิบหรือชีสแท้จากฟาร์มจริง

🧀 แล้วชีสจาก Formo มีดีจริงรึเปล่า ก็ต้องยอมรับว่าเทคโนโลยี precision fermentation ที่ใช้เชื้อรา (เช่น Aspergillus oryzae) ผลิตโปรตีนคล้ายเคซีนของ Formo นั้นล้ำและน่าสนใจในแง่วิทยาศาสตร์ แต่ในแง่ ความสมบูรณ์ทางโภชนาการและความใกล้ชิดธรรมชาติ ยังห่างจากชีสแท้ที่เกิดจากนมและจุลินทรีย์ตามธรรมชาติแบบหลายช่วงตัว ชีสแท้ ๆ มีจุลินทรีย์โพรไบโอติกส์ กรดไขมันสายสั้น และวิตามินจากหญ้า เช่น K2 ที่เกิดจากวัวที่เลี้ยงด้วย grass-fed ซึ่งทั้งหมดนี้ Formo ยังเลียนแบบไม่ได้ เทคโนโลยีชีสไร้วัวอาจดูสะอาดและควบคุมได้ดีในห้องแล็บ แต่ยังไม่ใช่ "อาหารตามธรรมชาติ" ที่ร่างกายรู้จักมาตลอดวิวัฒนาการ

Formo ใช้บทความ “Lactose, we need to talk” เป็นเหมือนการ “ตั้งวงซุบซิบนินทาวัว” อย่างมีชั้นเชิง ด้วยการเอาข้อเท็จจริงมาครึ่งหนึ่ง แล้วผสมกลิ่นอารมณ์และความรู้สึกผิดเข้าไปอีกครึ่งหนึ่ง จนกลายเป็นการเล่าเรื่องที่ดูจริงใจแต่ซ่อนความตั้งใจขายของอยู่ข้างใน

เฮียไม่มีสิทธิ์บอกว่า Formo ดีหรือไม่ดีนะครับ แม้นวัตกรรมแบบนี้อาจมีที่ยืนในโลกอนาคต ไม่ว่าเราจะเลือกได้หรือไม่ได้ก็ตาม แต่ในปัจจุบันในฐานะผู้บริโภค เราควรฝึกการมองตลาดด้วยสมองและสัญชาตญาณ ไม่ใช่แค่ตามกระแสที่โจมตีวัวในขณะที่ยกย่องแล็บ

โลกทุกวันนี้มักใช้วิธีนี้เช่นกันครับ มันเป็นวิธีเดิมๆ ที่ได้ผลเสมอ ดังนั้นปัญหาจึงไม่ได้อยู่ที่ว่าพวกเขาจะพูดด้านเดียวบ่อยแค่ไหน เพราะจุดประสงค์เขาคืออยากให้เราเชื่อ ปัญหาจึงอยู่ที่พวกเราต่างหาก ว่าสะสมความรู้ให้เพียงพอกับการรับมือการใช้สื่อ จากคนบางคนได้อย่างมีภูมิคุ้มกันแค่ไหน เพราะเกมส์นี้ก็ยังคงต้องดำเนินต่อไปจนกว่าการครอบครองตลาดจะสมบูรณ์ครับ ดังนั้น information attack ก็ยังคงดำเนินต่อไป ไม่ว่าจะด้านสารอาหาร การรักโลก หรือ สิ่งที่ทำให้หนักใจเสมอ แล้วมีความกดดันอย่างสูงนั่นคือ การลงมาเล่นด้าน จริยธรรม

คำถามที่สำคัญเหนือสิ่งใดคือ ทางรอดคืออะไร

ผมแนบต้นฉบับบทความนั้นมาให้ด้วยครับ ต้องยอมรับครับว่าเขียนได้ดีเลยและน่าคล้อยตามมากๆ อ่อ อ่านแล้วคุ้นๆไหมครับ ที่เฮียเคยเตือนว่า อย่าไปตั้งให้นมเป็นอาหารเทพนัก หลายๆส่วนระหว่างบรรทัด ก็ใช่ว่าจะไม่จริงไปเสียทั้งหมดนะครับ แค่บริบทโดยรวม มัน mislead ไปหน่อย

Lactose, we need to talk: The drama behind dairy’s hidden sugar

Cue the violins—it’s the classic love story with a tragic twist: us and dairy. We crave it, we drizzle it, we melt it, we scoop it. But hidden beneath that creamy, dreamy goodness? A troublemaker called lactose.

It might sound harmless, but for a lot of us, lactose is the culprit behind dairy’s not-so-pleasant side effects. In fact, the majority of the world’s population struggles to digest it properly.

So why do we keep chugging cow’s milk like it’s the elixir of life? And how did dairy become such a staple in our diets?

Grab your favorite cheese alternative (might we suggest Frischhain?) and join us for a deep dive into the world of lactose—what it is, why it matters, and how we are stepping in with our animal-free cheese to save the day.

“In a way, being able to chug a glass of milk without consequences is actually a genetic anomaly—one that we pretty much engineered ourselves over thousands of years.” The inside scoop: What’s LActose? Let’s start with the basics. Lactose is the natural sugar found in dairy milk—a built-in sweetener, if you will. But here’s the twist: your body needs a special enzyme called lactase to break it down. Without enough lactase, lactose turns into the life of the digestion-party you didn’t RSVP to: bloating, cramps, and a whole lot of regret.

As infants, our bodies produce plenty of lactase to digest breast milk. But for most of us, that enzyme naturally switches off once we grow into adulthood. In fact, until just a few thousand years ago, lactose intolerance (or “lactase nonpersistence”) was the norm for all adults.

Lactose Tolerance: A genetic Mutation Still today, nearly 70% of the global population are actually lactose intolerant—so, a heck of a lot of people. In certain regions, like East Asia and Africa, that number shoots up to almost 100%. But then, there’s a select few of us who can drink dairy milk without any drama. How’s that possible?

Well, here’s where it gets interesting. The ability to digest lactose as adults—also known as “lactase persistence”—isn’t evenly spread across the globe. Instead, it’s much more common in certain populations—specifically, those with a long history of dairying. Over 10,000 years ago, some humans began herding cows and drinking their milk, eventually triggering a genetic mutation that allowed them to keep producing lactase into adulthood. This trait is especially common in Northern Europe, for instance in Scandinavia and the Netherlands, where dairy farming has been a way of life for millennia.

It may sound weird, but essentially, some populations forced their own evolution by consuming a whole lot of dairy. That’s right. In a way, being able to chug a glass of milk without consequences is actually a genetic anomaly—one that we pretty much engineered ourselves over thousands of years.

The Dairy dilemma: why drink milk from cows? When you really stop and think about it, the need for this genetic mutation kind of makes sense—because, well, we’re not baby cows.

Just like human breast milk is designed to nourish human babies, cow’s milk is specifically made to take a tiny calf and turn it into a full-grown, 500-kilo cow—fast. It’s packed with nutrients meant to help calves double their birth weight in just a couple of months and pack on hundreds of kilos in their first year.

And yet, here we are, well past weaning age, still reaching for a glass of milk—and not just any milk, but milk from an entirely different species. Yeah… kinda weird, huh?

Wait… Do we even need Dairy milk? Remember those food pyramids we all grew up with—the ones that taught us that milk = calcium = strong bones? Well, here’s the interesting part: while we’ve been led to believe that dairy is the ultimate source of calcium, we can actually absorb up to twice as much calcium from leafy greens like kale and bok choy or from broccoli than from milk. Plus, other plant-based sources like firm tofu, fortified plant milks, and fortified juices have plenty of calcium, too.

And here’s the real kicker: more milk doesn’t always mean stronger bones. In fact, several recent studies suggest that high dairy consumption may actually increase the risk of fractures—especially in women. Who saw that coming?

Oh, and while we were all chugging milk to “build strong bones,” no one mentioned the extra ingredients tagging along—cholesterol, antibiotics, growth hormones… and who knows what else.

Some not-so-lovely side effects Alright, let’s get real for a moment. Dairy isn’t just a digestion bummer for many—it can be linked to serious health risks:

Heart Disease & High Cholesterol: Dairy is loaded with saturated fat, contributing to heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and even Alzheimer’s. Increased Cancer Risk: High dairy intake has been tied to higher risks of liver, breast, ovarian, and prostate cancers. Skin Woes: Acne, eczema, and premature aging can be unwelcome side effects of dairy consumption. Dairy has been marketed as a universal health food for decades, yet its consumption patterns have been shaped more by industry influence than genuine nutritional necessity. Lactose intolerance isn’t a niche issue—it’s a reminder that our dietary norms are far from one-size-fits-all.

Beyond lactose: The ripple effects of dairy But avoiding dairy isn’t just about avoiding an upset stomach—it’s about the planet and the animals, too. Dairy farming uses a staggering amount of water and land, and the industry is a huge contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. Not to mention, billions of cows suffer day in, day out, just so we can drink their milk.

And, while we’re at it, let’s bust a myth real quick. That comforting little story about how somehow, we’re “doing cows a favor” by milking them constantly—because otherwise, they’d explode or something? Well…that’s not exactly how it works. Like humans, cows don’t just produce milk on command. They only lactate after giving birth, and in the dairy industry, that’s usually after forcible artificial insemination. Mother and baby are separated almost immediately, and the male calves? They’re either sent to the veal industry or killed right away as surplus.

Cows aren’t built to be milked non-stop, and the constant milking can cause serious health problems, like mastitis (a painful udder infection), lameness, and other injuries.

So yeah—not exactly the family-friendly scenes you might imagine.

“Our mission goes beyond creating tasty alternatives—we’re envisioning a future where indulgence doesn’t come at the expense of animals or the planet.” The frischhain twist: animal-free, lactose-free, problem-free Let’s face it: traditional dairy has a lot of baggage. But breaking up with lactose doesn’t mean giving up on cheese*alternatives. That’s where we come in.

Our animal-free cheese is crafted without cows, using cutting-edge microfermentation to produce Koji protein—closely resembling traditional whey proteins. The result? Delicious cheese*alternatives that’s better for your tummy, your health, and the planet.

No more bloating. No more stomach aches. Just cheesy*alternative goodness—guilt-free.

What’s more, each pack of our cream cheese alternative Frischhain packs 10.9g of protein, saves 1.2kg of CO2 emissions, and uses far less water and land. If that’s not reason enough to give it a go, we’re not sure what is!

why cutting down on dairy is a win for everyone Look, even if you’re not lactose intolerant, switching to animal-free dairy has major perks:

Happy Digestion: Dairy-free options make digestion smoother and help prevent bloating, discomfort, and even energy crashes. Better Skin & Hormones: Going dairy-free can improve skin clarity, reduce inflammation, and balance hormones. Planet-Friendly: Ditching dairy helps reduce excessive water use, land destruction, and greenhouse gas emissions. It’s an easy way to reduce your carbon footprint. Cruelty-Free: Supporting dairy alternatives means less harm to animals, especially the billions of cows in factory farms the future of dairy: diverse, delicious, and dairy-free One of the most exciting aspects of shifting away from traditional dairy is the sheer diversity of alternatives. From fermented nut cheeses to innovative proteins made with micro fermentation, the industry is moving beyond simple substitutions and into entirely new taste and texture experiences. Lactose-free options have never been more delicious or more readily available. And the best part? They’re made for humans, not cows.

Our mission goes beyond creating tasty alternatives—we’re envisioning a future where indulgence doesn’t come at the expense of animals or the planet. So, whether you’re lactose-intolerant, eco-conscious, or just obsessed with really good cheesealternatives, why not give our cow-free cheesealternative a try? The future of dairy is here—and it’s deliciously dairy-free.

Nukleáris politika – 2025. május 14. | Írta: David Dalton

Dánia fontolgatja a 40 éve tartó atomerőmű-tilalom feloldását

Dánia fontolgatja a 40 éve érvényben lévő atomerőmű-tilalom feloldását, hogy javítsa energiaellátásának biztonságát, és elkerülje az olyan áramszüneteket, mint amilyenek múlt hónapban Spanyolországot és Portugáliát sújtották – közölte az ország energiaügyi minisztere.

Lars Aagaard a dán Politiken napilapnak május 13-án elmondta, hogy a koppenhágai centrista koalíció egy évig elemzi majd az atomenergia újbóli bevezetésének előnyeit és hátrányait.

„Láthatjuk, hogy fejlődés zajlik az új atomenergia-technológiák, például a kis moduláris reaktorok terén” – mondta Aagaard.

„De önmagában nem elég, hogy ezekben lehetőség rejlik. Azt is tudnunk kell, mit jelentene a dán társadalom számára, ha lehetővé tennénk ezeknek a technológiáknak a bevezetését” – tette hozzá.

Május 14-én Aagaardnak nyilvános meghallgatáson kellett megjelennie a parlamentben, hogy válaszoljon az ellenzéki pártok kérdéseire, amelyek támogatják az atomenergia visszahozatalát.

Az 1985-ös tilalom feloldása Dániát azon országok növekvő csoportjába sorolná, amelyek az atomenergiát a megújuló energiaforrások kiegyensúlyozására használják az áramtermelésben.

A szomszédos Svédország jobboldali kormánya megpróbálja újjáéleszteni az atomenergiát az országban, ahol még három atomerőmű működik, miután a Three Mile Island-i (USA) 1979-es baleset óta folyamatosan vitatkoznak a bezárásukról.

Norvégia eközben bizottságot hozott létre az atomenergia lehetőségeinek vizsgálatára, és olyan cégek jelentek meg, amelyek kis moduláris reaktorok telepítését tervezik.

Anders Fogh Rasmussen, Dánia volt miniszterelnöke és a NATO egykori főtitkára a brit Financial Timesnak azt mondta, támogatja a „nevetséges” tilalom feloldását.

Dán milliárdos alapja támogatja az atomenergiát

Dánia Európában az egyik legmagasabb megújuló energia részaránnyal rendelkezik az áramtermelésben, köszönhetően a partjai mentén található hatalmas tengeri szélerőműveknek.

Dániában sosem működtek kereskedelmi atomerőművek, de három kutatóreaktort üzemeltettek 1957 és 1960 között. Ezeket mind leállították, jelenleg leszerelik őket.

Múlt hónapban Joachim Ante dán milliárdos által támogatott alap bejelentette, hogy 350 millió eurót kíván összegyűjteni a fejlett atomenergia-ipar és annak ellátási láncának támogatására. A 92 Capital az atomenergia újjáéledésére számít, mivel egyre nagyobb az aggodalom az energiaellátás biztonsága miatt.

Ante, aki a Unity nevű videojáték-szoftvercéget alapította, eddig 50 millió eurót fektetett be saját vagyonából.

Az alap korábbi változata, a 92 Ventures, befektetett a svéd Blykalla és a finn Steady Energy cégekbe, amelyek mind kis moduláris reaktorok fejlesztésén dolgoznak.

A dán Seaborg Technologies több országban vizsgálja kompakt, olvadt sóval működő, úszó „erőmű bárka” technológiájának telepítési lehetőségeit.

Urán és üzemanyag – 2025. május 14. | Írta: David Dalton

Az USA felgyorsítja a Utah-i uránprojektet, miközben Trump az „energia-válság” megoldására törekszik

Az amerikai belügyminisztérium bejelentette, hogy gyorsított környezetvédelmi engedélyezési eljárás alá vonja az Anfield Energy által javasolt Velvet-Wood uránbánya projektet Utah államban, hogy elősegítse Donald Trump elnök törekvését a hazai energiatermelés növelésére.

Ennek eredményeként a projekt környezeti felülvizsgálata mindössze 14 nap alatt lezajlik – közölte a minisztérium.

Az ilyen vizsgálatok általában évekig tartanak az uránbányászat lehetséges környezeti hatásai miatt.

A kanadai Anfield Energy szerint a Velvet-Wood az első uránprojekt, amelyet az amerikai kormány gyorsított eljárásban kezel Trump energiafüggetlenségi vészhelyzeti nyilatkozata alapján. A cég szerint ez „határozott elmozdulás a hazai nukleáris üzemanyag-ellátás szövetségi támogatása felé”.

Doug Burgum belügyminiszter szerint Amerika riasztó energiavészhelyzettel néz szembe az előző kormányzat „klímaszélsőséges” politikája miatt.

„Trump elnök és kormánya gyorsasággal és erővel válaszol, hogy megoldja ezt a válságot” – mondta.

„A bányászati projekt gyorsított felülvizsgálata pontosan az a határozott lépés, amelyre szükségünk van energia-jövőnk biztosításához.”

Ha jóváhagyják, a San Juan megyében lévő Velvet-Wood bánya uránt termelne, amelyet atomerőművek üzemanyagaként és nukleáris fegyverek előállításához is használnak, valamint vanádiumot, amely akkumulátorokban vagy acél és más ötvözetek erősítésére használható.

A belügyminisztérium szerint a projekt egy korábbi bányászati művelet helyszínén valósulna meg, és csak három hektárnyi új felszíni zavarás keletkezne.

Az Anfield tulajdonában van a Shootaring Canyon uránfeldolgozó üzem is Utah-ban, amelyet újraindítani tervez. Ez az üzem az uránércet urán-koncentrátummá alakítaná, amely atomerőművek üzemanyagaként használható.

Az Anfield 2015-ben vásárolta meg a Velvet-Wood bányát az Uranium One-tól. 1979 és 1984 között az Atlas Minerals mintegy 400 000 tonna ércet bányászott ki a Velvet-lelőhelyen, és körülbelül négy millió font triurán-okt-oxidot (U3O8) nyert ki.

Az U3O8, más néven „sárga sütemény”, egyfajta urán-koncentrátum por, amelyet atomerőművek üzemanyagának előállítására használnak.

Új építés – 2025. május 14. | Írta: David Dalton

Brüsszel „jelentős kockázatot” lát a Dukovany atomerőmű projektben a tisztességtelen állami támogatás miatt

Brüsszel „jelentős” kockázatot lát abban, hogy a dél-koreai cég, amely elnyerte a két új atomerőmű szállítására kiírt szerződést a csehországi Dukovany telephelyére, tisztességtelen állami támogatásban részesült.

A Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power (KHNP), az állami Kepco leányvállalata, a francia állami EDF és az amerikai Westinghouse előtt nyerte el a szerződést.

Brüsszel azonban arra kérte a cseh kormányt, hogy függessze fel a szerződést, amíg az EU külföldi támogatásokról szóló rendelete alapján döntés nem születik, amely az uniós vállalatokat hivatott védeni a jelentős állami támogatásban részesülő külföldi versenytársakkal szemben.

Stéphane Séjourné, az EU belső piacért felelős biztosa május 2-i levelében azt írta, hogy „jelentős jelek” utalnak arra, hogy a KHNP állami támogatásban részesült, ami torzíthatja az unió belső piacát, és tisztességtelen előnyt adhat az európai versenytársakkal szemben.

A széles körben ismertetett levél szerint a szerződés aláírása veszélyeztetné a bizottság vizsgálati lehetőségét.

Egy cseh regionális bíróság május 6-án felfüggesztette a szerződést az EDF fellebbezése után, amely szerint a szerződés precedenst teremtene, lehetővé téve a dél-koreai cég számára, hogy agresszíven pályázzon más európai szerződésekre.

Egy EU-tisztviselő szerint Séjourné, aki francia, kizárólag az uniós jog betartatása érdekében lépett közbe, nem pedig hazája érdekeinek védelmében.

A cseh CTK hírügynökség idézte Petr Fiala cseh miniszterelnököt, aki szerint a levél a biztostól származik, de nem képviseli a bizottság hivatalos álláspontját, és nincs kötelező ereje.

Az Euractiv szerint egy bizottsági szóvivő május 12-én újságíróknak azt mondta, hogy Séjourné levele „egyáltalán nem kérte a dolgok felfüggesztését”.

A cseh cég szerint az állami támogatás vádja „spekuláció”

A reaktorprojektért felelős cseh cég, az Elektrárna Dukovany II (EDU II) közleményt adott ki, amelyben megvédte a kiválasztási folyamatot, és felszólította az EDF-et, hogy hozza nyilvánosságra a pályázat során benyújtott ajánlatát.

Az EDU II, a cseh állami közműcég, a ČEZ leányvállalata, közölte, hogy „teljes kártérítést” követel, és megvédi a részvényesi értéket a pereskedéssel szemben.

A közlemény szerint az illegális támogatás vádja „a sikertelen pályázó spekulációja”.

Dél-Korea és Csehország megerősítette elkötelezettségét az atomerőmű-szerződés aláírása mellett, a bírósági döntés ellenére is.

Sajtóhírek szerint a cseh kormány május 7-i ülésén közölte, hogy az EDU II a lehető leghamarabb folytatja a szerződéskötést a KHNP-vel két atomerőmű építésére.

A két új, nagy kapacitású APR1400 típusú blokkot a KHNP szállítja, és a dél-csehországi Dukovany atomerőmű meglévő telephelyén építik fel, mintegy 50 kilométerre az osztrák határtól.

Az eredetileg május 7-re tervezett szerződéskötést elhalasztották, miután bírósági végzést adtak ki az EDF jogi kifogása miatt.

Kutatás-fejlesztés – 2025. május 14. | Írta: David Dalton

Vizsgálati program bizonyítja a szállítható atomerőművek robusztusságát – állítja a Prodigy

Egy elsőként végrehajtott vizsgálati program bizonyítja, hogy a szállítható atomerőművek képesek ellenállni baleseti és veszélyhelyzeti forgatókönyveknek – és kritikus adatokat szolgáltat a kereskedelmi engedélyezés támogatásához 2030-ig.

A kanadai Prodigy Clean Energy és a Serco közölte, hogy a vizsgálatokat részben a kanadai szövetségi kormány 2,7 millió kanadai dolláros támogatása finanszírozta, amely a kis moduláris reaktorok fejlesztését célozza.

A Prodigy szerint szállítható atomerőművei tengeri létesítményben készülnek, majd a helyszínre szállítják őket, így gyors telepítési megoldást kínálnak az új atomenergia gyors és versenyképes költségű bevezetésére.

A cég lényegében „csomagolja” a kis moduláris reaktorokat és mikroreaktorokat előre gyártott, áthelyezhető erőművi szerkezetekbe. Az egységek kombinálhatók, így 5 megawattól 1000 megawattig terjedő kapacitás érhető el.

„A szállítható atomerőművek nagyon kis partszakaszt igényelnek, és testre szabhatók reaktortípus és méret szerint” – közölte a cég.

Azt is közölték, hogy a brit központú Serco-val együttműködve tesztelik a szállítható atomerőművek ellenállását és szerkezeti teljesítményét „a legnehezebb körülmények között”, beleértve a repülőgép-becsapódást és hajóütközést; földrengést, jeget és más szélsőséges időjárási és óceáni eseményeket; tüzet és árvizet; valamint a belső rakétabecsapódás elleni ellenállást.

„A Prodigy elvégzi a szükséges munkát, hogy a szállítható atomerőművek időben piacra kerülhessenek Észak-Amerikában” – mondta Mathias Trojer, a cég elnök-vezérigazgatója.

Hozzátette, hogy a Prodigy reaktortechnológiái mostanra elérték azt a szintet, hogy részletes mérnöki együttműködéseket indíthatnak komoly partnerekkel.

A Prodigy szerint szállítható atomerőművei szén-dioxid-mentes alapterhelést tudnak biztosítani távoli bányák, közösségek, védelmi létesítmények és sarkvidéki adatközpontok számára.

Egyéb hírek

• Szerb atomenergia-tanulmány június végére készül el: Előzetes tanulmány készül Szerbia atomenergia-használatáról, amely a második negyedév végére várható. A francia állami energiaszolgáltató EDF és a francia Egis Industries mérnöki vállalat nyerte el a tanulmány elkészítésére kiírt pályázatot, amely egy lehetséges nukleáris program ütemtervét is tartalmazza. Szerbiában nincs kereskedelmi atomerőmű, de tavaly öt minisztérium együttműködési megállapodást írt alá húsz tudományos és állami energetikai intézménnyel az első atomerőmű telepítésének lehetőségét vizsgálva.

• Az U3O8 spot árfolyama kissé emelkedett, de bizonytalanság marad: Az amerikai TradeTech szerint az U3O8 spot árfolyama 70 dollár fontonként, ami 7,7%-os emelkedés áprilishoz képest, de év eleje óta 7,9%-kal alacsonyabb. A középtávú ár 72 dollár, a hosszú távú ár 80 dollár fontonként. A bizonytalanság oka többek között az USA és Oroszország közötti kapcsolatok javításának nehézségei, valamint az amerikai mesterséges intelligencia-fejlesztések energiaigénye, miközben a kínai versenytársak hatékonyabbak.

MUCH BETTER

@ 8d34bd24:414be32b

In case you haven’t noticed, I’ve spent a lot of time reading Revelation lately. Last night, I was reading the letters to the seven churches in Revelation. It got me thinking about the church or churches today.

“To the angel of the church in Laodicea write:

The Amen, the faithful and true Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God, says this:

‘I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot; I wish that you were cold or hot. So because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of My mouth. Because you say, “I am rich, and have become wealthy, and have need of nothing,” and you do not know that you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked, I advise you to buy from Me gold refined by fire so that you may become rich, and white garments so that you may clothe yourself, and that the shame of your nakedness will not be revealed; and eye salve to anoint your eyes so that you may see. Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline; therefore be zealous and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me. He who overcomes, I will grant to him to sit down with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’ ” (Revelation 3:14-22)

Sadly the church in Revelation, that the majority of American churches most closely resembles, is the church in Laodicea. (FYI, like most large generalizations, there are exceptions, of course)

Last I heard, America still had the most churches, Christian book stores, Christian radio stations, etc., but is America still the most Christian? I strongly have my doubts. Most modern, American churches seem to be more about socialization, entertainment, and making people feel good about themselves, even if what they really need is repentance. I even have doubts that many institutions that call themselves churches are churches (as defined by God) or have any true believers as members.

‘I know your tribulation and your poverty (but you are rich), and the blasphemy by those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan. (Revelation 2:9)

Although this verse is referring to those who call themselves Jews and are not, I think we are seeing those who say they are Christians and are not, but are a church of Satan. Of course this is definitely not true of all churches.

The most common thing I see, though, is the lukewarm churches, where members show up on Sunday, check that off their list, and then go on living life like everyone else around them. Surveys show that rates of divorce, abortion, and other anti-biblical choices are as common among self-proclaimed Christians as among those who claim no faith.

These churches hear the Bible, but don’t hunger for the Word of God. They listen to God’s commands, but don’t live them out in their daily lives. Just like the Pharisees, they have the trappings of religion, but not the spirit of God. Worship is singing along with a rock band rather than falling on their face in awe of their Creator.

Just like what was predicted:

For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths. (2 Timothy 4:3-4) {emphasis mine}

Church services become self-help services. The word of God gets subverted by culture and “science.” Some church leaders intentionally ignore certain passages and take others out of context, so they will be popular and have growth. Sadly a growth in “butts in seats” is not what matters, if it isn’t accompanied by a growth in trust in Jesus and a growth in discipleship. These churches give a lot of people the false hope that they will be going to Heaven when they die. They will be shocked to hear “I never knew you.”

“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.’ (Matthew 7:21-23) {emphasis mine}

Like the church in Laodicea, the church in America is rich in material wealth compared to others. Like the church in Laodicea, the American church relies too much on their wealth and freedom instead of putting their faith in God through good times and bad. Like the church in Laodicea, the American church has the trappings of faith without the reality of faith as shown by works (lifestyle). Most unfortunately, like the church in Laodicea, the American church is full of people who will almost certainly hear “I never knew you.”

What does Jesus say the solution is? “Be zealous and repent.”

Nothing in life should be more important to us than our relationship with our Creator and Savior. If we’ve relegated Him to the margins, we need to repent. We need to turn back to God and seek Him first.

Do not worry then, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or ‘What will we drink?’ or ‘What will we wear for clothing?’ For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. (Matthew 6:31-33) {emphasis mine}

Even if we aren’t actively doing evil, it is so easy to get distracted by life and not include God in our lives. Instead of God being just someone who we worship for and hour or two on Sunday morning and pray to at meals, He should be our guiding force for all things in our lives. He should be our focus and guiding light. We should long for His word and study the Bible daily. We should seek His guidance in decisions big and small. We should interact with others with the same goals and love as Jesus did when He was living a mortal life on earth. Our lives should look different.

I love what was said about Jesus’s disciples:

Now as they observed the confidence of Peter and John and understood that they were uneducated and untrained men, they were amazed, and began to recognize them as having been with Jesus. (Acts 4:13) {emphasis mine}

I want everyone who meets me to see Jesus in me and recognize that I have been with Jesus. Do you? Or do you want to blend in and look like those around you because that is easier and more comfortable?

Now for this very reason also, applying all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence, and in your moral excellence, knowledge, and in your knowledge, self-control, and in your self-control, perseverance, and in your perseverance, godliness, and in your godliness, brotherly kindness, and in your brotherly kindness, love. For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they render you neither useless nor unfruitful in the true knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. For he who lacks these qualities is blind or short-sighted, having forgotten his purification from his former sins. Therefore, brethren, be all the more diligent to make certain about His calling and choosing you; for as long as you practice these things, you will never stumble; for in this way the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be abundantly supplied to you. (2 Peter 1:5-11) {emphasis mine}

Peter gives some good advice on becoming more Christ-like and fruitful. He tells us to apply all diligence in:

• faith

• moral excellence

• perseverance

• godliness

• brotherly kindness

• love

He tells us that lacking these traits is “blind or short-sighted” and leads to us being unfruitful and useless. I don’t know about you, but I do NOT want Jesus to think of me as useless.

May the God of heaven increase your faith, grow your desire to know God through prayer and study of His Word, and help you to live the life you were designed to live. May he help you to avoid worldly distractions and to have the strength to stand firm on the foundation of Jesus especially when this means you have to stand up against the crowd. May you be fruitful and useful all of the days of your life.

Trust Jesus.

(Textículo em prosa erudita sobre a Ideologia Anarco-Capitalista-Cristã)

https://davipinheiro.com/01-escravos-da-cara-inchada/

A cultura #Woke apropriou-se da imagem sobre a #escravidão. Quando uma pessoa aculturada imagina um #escravo, vem em sua mente a imagem de um ser humano negro, magro e flagelado. Para quem enxerga além das cortinas da mentira, vem em sua mente a imagem de um ser humano de qualquer etnia, gordo e doente.

Democracia, péssimo regime de governo assim classificado pelo seu próprio idealizador: Platão em A República, é o grito da hienas de dentes arreganhados para ampliação do regime escravocrata fomentado pelos #GlobalistasSatanistas.

Um escravo da cara inchada é todo aquele ser humano ignorante inconsciente que alimenta esse sistema em troca de intoxicantes como flúor¹, cloro, glutamato monosódico, gordura trans, corantes, conservantes, refrigerantes, bebidas alcoólicas, psicotrópicos e remédios sintomáticos, tudo embrulhado com mentiras reiteradas.

Como consequência, após os 18 anos de idade o corpo do #EscravoDaCaraInchada sucumbe à tamanha intoxicação e passa a inchar, sendo fisicamente perceptível sua condição de escravo da cara inchada tanto à olho nú quando por reconhecimento facial de qualquer pseudo inteligência artificial.

O círculo vicioso da #EscravidaoDemocratica é tão simples e tosco como o “pão e circo romano”, Mesmo assim é muito difícil para o escravo da cara inchada perceber a própria condição tamanha é sua intoxicação física e mental.

Se um Anarco-Capitalista-Cristão (#Ancapcristão) chega para um escravo da cara inchada e explica sobre esses intoxicantes como instrumento de escravização, dificilmente o escravo da cara inchada irá acreditar pois diferentemente do antigo e aposentado chicote, o novo instrumento da escravidão não dói de imediato e os próprios efeitos da intoxicação impedem-no de raciocinar com clareza.

Portanto, para que os #GlobalistasSatanistas obtivessem sucesso na democratização da escravidão, tiveram que criar um chicote químico e uma ideologia favorável. Quanto às etapas utilizadas para formação dessa ideologia no inconsciente coletivo passo a elencar as 6 grandes mentiras em ordem cronológica:

(1ª etapa) Iluminismo: distanciamento de #Deus e seus ensinamentos, criação de sociedades secretas, exacerbação do ser humano perante o criador na tentativa de projetar o ser humano como seu próprio deus, tornando-o responsável sobre os rumos naturais do planeta. Assim formou-se a base ideológica para o materialismo, ambientalismo, feminismo, controle populacional e ideologia de gêneros;

(2ª etapa) Materialismo: perda do propósito espiritual e do sentido da vida², o que passa a importar são apenas as coisas materiais, acima inclusive do próprio ser humano. A perpetuação da espécie também fica em segundo plano. Assim formou-se a base ideológica para o ambientalismo, feminismo, controle populacional e ideologia de gêneros;

(3ª etapa) Ambientalismo: redução do ser humano à mero câncer do planeta superlotado, atribuído-lhe a responsabilidade por qualquer desastre natural. Assim formou-se a base ideológica para o controle populacional e ideologia de gêneros;

(4ª etapa) Feminismo: enfraquecimento do ser humano por meio da sua divisão em duas categorias: macho e fêmea, os quais são inimigos e não cooperadores. A ideia de igualdade de gêneros é tão antagônica que beira ao conflito cognitivo³: Eles querem separar para dizer que são iguais... Ora, como não pode haver diferenças entre os gêneros se eles são fisicamente e mentalmente diferentes? Nesse diapasão, mesmo não sendo os estados nacionais os arquitetos da escravidão democrática e sim meros fantoches dos globalistas satanistas, o voto feminino foi fundamental para aprovação de leis misândricas com o fito de acelerar a destruição da base familiar do escravo da cara inchada. Importante mencionar que a base familiar dos globalistas satanistas continua sendo patriarcal. Assim formou-se a base ideológica para o controle populacional e ideologia de gêneros;

(5ª etapa) Controle Populacional: “Crescei e multiplicai-vos” é o caralho, Deus não sabe de nada (Iluminismo), o que importa é o dinheiro e filho é caro (Materialismo), para que colocar mais um ser humano nesse planeta doente e superlotado (Ambientalismo), além disso o sexo oposto é meu inimigo (Feminismo). Essa é base ideológica que antecede a ideologia de Controle Populacional, ainda reforçada pela apologia à castração, já que em todas as mídias produzidas com patrocínio oculto de capital globalista satanista tentam normalizar a castração do homem (perda da capacidade de reprodução) desde em desenhos infantis até grandes produções cinematográficas, ora em tom de humor ora em tom de tortura. Assim os escravos da cara inchada do sexo masculino perderam sua identidade, essência e desejo de ser o que são, formando-se a base ideológica para o homossexualismo, ou seja, para a ideologia de gêneros.

(6ª etapa) Ideologia de Gêneros: É a cereja do bolo para os planos do Diabo (Anjo invejoso de Deus que quer destruir a maior criação: nós). Enquanto os globalistas satanistas, dentro de sua sábia ignorância, acreditam estarem chefiando a democratização da escravidão, na verdade também não passam de meros fantoches do Anjo Caído. Com a sexta e última etapa de mentiras para extinção da humanidade (#apocalipse) posta em prática através da Ideologia de Gêneros, fecha-se o ciclo vicioso de mentiras que se auto justificam: Se #Deus não presta, o que vale são os bens materiais, o ser humano é um câncer no planeta, o sexo oposto é inimigo e ter filhos é uma péssima ideia e ser homem másculo é crime, então ser #homossexual é a melhor opção, inclusive vamos castrar os meninos antes da puberdade sem o consentimento dos pais ou mães solo. Aqui também há uma grande bifurcação do círculo vicioso de mentiras, qual seja o gritante conflito cognitivo³: Se todos os homens deixarem de ser másculos, quem vai comer os #gays afeminados? Ou se todas as mulheres deixarem de ser femininas, quem as #sapatonas irão comer? E o pior, se todos passem a ser homossexuais quem vai perpetuar a espécie? Seremos extintos no lapso temporal de apenas uma geração, pois a fraudulenta medicina moderna jamais terá a capacidade de gerar bebês de chocadeira à tempo.

É interessante enxergar que mesmo os Globalistas Satanistas, dentro de sua sábia ignorância, acreditando estarem democratizando a escravidão em benefício próprio, na verdade apenas estão fomentando o apocalipse, ou seja sua própria extinção. Também não terão qualquer lugar especial no inferno, sinônimo de mal é mentira. Portanto os #GlobalistaSatanistas são meros fantoches do #Diabo enganador, tão submissos quanto o Escravo da Cara Inchada…

Interessante também enxergar que o livre arbítrio é uma condição obrigatória para independência da criação (anjo e ser humano). Todos somos livres para escolher entre o bem e o mal, se iremos ser escravos de #Deus ou escravos do Diabo. Se assim não fosse, inexistiria criação pois seríamos mera extensão da consciência do #Criador, em outras palavras: para que exista uma criação, essa deve ter a capacidade de decisão de forma independente, o chamado livre arbítrio.

Com base nisso, temos que não cabe à nos fazer qualquer revolução, tudo está normal, a luta entre o bem e o mal sempre irá existir pois um não existe sem o outro. Nos cabe apenas escolher o lado. Nesse contexto, tenho a seguinte mensagem destinada à você para encerrar o presente Textículo Anarco-Capitalista-Cristão:

------ > Se você for um ANARCO-CAPITALISTA-CRISTÃO passe esta palavra à diante para que a verdade atinja o maior número de ignorantes inconscientes possível;

------ > Se você for um GLOBALISTA SATANISTA, vai viver sua vida, desfrutar da própria fortuna e pare de ser fantoche o Diabo, mentiram para você: não terá qualquer lugar especial quando morrer;

------ > Se você for um ESCRAVO DA CARA INCHADA e não entendeu o que eu disse, por favor me pergunte ou debata comigo, terei o prazer em lhe ajudar a enxergar a verdade. Pare de trabalhar por dinheiro fiduciário, passe a aceitar #Monero e #Bitcoin em troca do seu trabalho, pois isso é o único jeito de sermos financeiramente livres, se tiver alguma dúvida sobre #criptomoedas me pergunte e terei o prazer e ensinar. Se ainda assim você se recusa a enxergar a verdade exposta aqui, por favor aceite #Monero e #Bitcoin quando for dar o seu cú. Ou melhor, cometa suicídio, já que você é um câncer no planeta, salve a natureza.

CHAPTER NINETEEN

“Please! I’m your sister! I just needed a little help!” she cried dramatically. “How could you do this to your own blood?!”

Gasps echoed through the grand hall.

Guests froze in place, their judgmental stares directed at James. Cameraman didn’t hesitate to raise their lenses. Phones were pulled out. A social media storm was already brewing in real time.

James stood still, eyes narrowed. He didn’t move, didn’t speak.

Tracy, standing beside Helen, discreetly snapped more photos, already typing up the next round of false headlines to feed into the media engine.

Helen smirked at the chaos and whispered, “This is it. The downfall begins.”

But James wasn’t shaken.

With quiet authority, he raised his hand, and two personal bodyguards appeared from the sidelines. He looked Evelyn square in the eye, then said, loud enough for the nearest guests to hear, “Escort this woman outside. She is not my sister. And she has no place here.”

Evelyn’s cries turned more dramatic, but it was clear to the more discerning eyes in the room that something about her act was off. Her appearance was too deliberate, her performance too exaggerated.

As security led her away, some guests began to murmur with skepticism.

“Wait… that woman doesn’t even resemble him.” “Isn’t it strange she showed up right after that story went viral?” “Could this be a setup?”

Suddenly, a hush fell over the grand hall. The doors swung open and in walked Mr. and Mrs. JP, their presence commanding immediate respect and admiration. The atmosphere shifted, charged with reverence. The orchestra paused, and every individual in the room instinctively rose to their feet.

The couple moved with elegance and dignity, their attire speaking volumes of their legacy Mr. JP in a classic black suit with golden cufflinks, and Mrs. JP in an emerald silk gown that shimmered under the chandeliers.

As they made their way toward the stage, hosts and VIPs bowed subtly, showing deference. Whispers rippled through the audience.

"That’s the founder himself..." "And she’s the matriarch elegance personified." "Do you think they know about the scandal?"

When the couple finally ascended the stage, Mr. JP gestured politely for the crowd to take their seats. The applause lingered like a standing ovation for royalty.

Taking the microphone with a measured breath, Mr. JP began, his voice calm, dignified, and layered with authority.

“Distinguished guests,” he said, scanning the crowd with a nod. “Tonight marks a milestone not just in our company’s journey, but in our personal lives. Sixteen years ago, this empire was only a dream... Today, it is a reality that spans borders and inspires millions.”

The audience clapped again, some even rising briefly in acknowledgment.

“We did not build this alone,” he continued, eyes softening. “From those who’ve been with us from the beginning, to the new minds who’ve steered us through recent storms this success belongs to all of you.”

Then, a slight pause.

Mr. JP took a breath, his tone shifting to something deeper.

“Among those responsible for the rebirth of JP Enterprises… is someone very close to me. Someone many of you may not recognize today, but who has been pivotal in our turnaround.”

People exchanged curious glances.

Helen furrowed her brows. Mark leaned forward, visibly tense. Even Tracy, who had been busy on her phone, paused, sensing something big.

Mr. JP looked toward James in the crowd. “Please rise.”

James stood up slowly, every eye in the room locking on him.

Gasps echoed across the hall.

“That’s him?” “The guy from the news?” “The so-called cruel brother?”

Mr. JP smiled proudly.

“Ladies and gentlemen,” he said, his voice growing firm, “the man you see before you is not only the current President of JP Enterprises… but he is also my son James JP.”

Silence fell like a heavy curtain.

Helen's wine glass slipped slightly in her grip. Mark's jaw dropped. Tracy froze.

Mr. JP continued, “Some of you may have seen recent headlines. Falsehoods spread by those who fear his rise. But let me be clear this man was once wrongly accused, cast aside, and even disowned. A mistake I will regret all my life. Yet despite all that, he rebuilt everything. He turned loss into legacy.”

He turned to James, emotion glistening in his eyes. “Son, I’m proud of you. You are not just a worthy heir, you are a better man than I ever was.”

A standing ovation erupted.

The audience rose again, this time with sincere admiration. Applause thundered across the hall.

James slowly approached the stage, his head held high, the moment heavy with vindication. He took the microphone, looked across the sea of faces, some still stunned, some clapping with tears in their eyes.

“Thank you,” he began, his voice steady. “There was a time I stood outside this very building, invisible, broken, and ignored. Today, I stand here not for revenge… but to remind us all: never underestimate the strength of the overlooked.”

The applause grew louder.

“I will protect this company with everything I have,” he declared. “But let it also be known betrayal has no place in this legacy. Truth always finds a way to rise.”

Helen swallowed hard.

Mark clenched his fists beneath the table.

Tracy shrank slightly into her seat.

The atmosphere in the grand ballroom of the JP Enterprises Headquarters was thick with suspense. Mr. JP stood tall behind the polished podium, his presence commanding silence. The air practically crackled with curiosity as the crowd leaned forward in their seats, eager to hear the revelation everyone had been waiting for.

“I know many of you are wondering who my son is,” Mr. JP said, his voice deep and firm, echoing through the hall. “The one who will inherit not just my fortune, but my legacy. The heir to JP Enterprises and everything I have worked for in my lifetime.”

Marty's Bent

via me

It seems like every other day there's another company announced that is going public with the intent of competing with Strategy by leveraging capital markets to create financial instruments to acquire Bitcoin in a way that is accretive for shareholders. This is certainly a very interesting trend, very bullish for bitcoin in the short-term, and undoubtedly making it so bitcoin is top of mind in the mainstream. I won't pretend to know whether or not these strategies will ultimately be successful or fail in the short, medium or long term. However, one thing I do know is that the themes that interest me, both here at TFTC and in my role as Managing Partner at Ten31, are companies that are building good businesses that are efficient, have product-market-fit, generate revenues and profits and roll those profits into bitcoin.

While it seems pretty clear that Strategy has tapped into an arbitrage that exists in capital markets, it's not really that exciting. From a business perspective, it's actually pretty straightforward and simple; find where potential arbitrage opportunities exists between pools of capital looking for exposure to spot bitcoin or bitcoin's volatility but can't buy the actual asset, and provide them with products that give them access to exposure while simultaneously creating a cult-like retail following. Rinse and repeat. To the extent that this strategy is repeatable is yet to be seen. I imagine it can expand pretty rapidly. Particularly if we have a speculative fervor around companies that do this. But in the long run, I think the signal is falling back to first principles, looking for businesses that are actually providing goods and services to the broader economy - not focused on the hyper-financialized part of the economy - to provide value and create efficiencies that enable higher margins and profitability.

With this in mind, I think it's important to highlight the combined leverage that entrepreneurs have by utilizing bitcoin treasuries and AI tools that are emerging and becoming more advanced by the week. As I said in the tweet above, there's never been a better time to start a business that finds product-market fit and cash flows quickly with a team of two to three people. If you've been reading this rag over the last few weeks, you know that I've been experimenting with these AI tools and using them to make our business processes more efficient here at TFTC. I've also been using them at Ten31 to do deep research and analysis.

It has become abundantly clear to me that any founder or entrepreneur that is not utilizing the AI tools that are emerging is going to get left behind. As it stands today, all anyone has to do to get an idea from a thought in your head to the prototype stage to a minimum viable product is to hop into something like Claude or ChatGPT, have a brief conversation with an AI model that can do deep research about a particular niche that you want to provide a good service to and begin building.

Later this week, I will launch an app called Opportunity Cost in the Chrome and Firefox stores. It took me a few hours of work over the span of a week to ideate and iterate on the concept to the point where I had a working prototype that I handed off to a developer who is solving the last mile problem I have as an "idea guy" of getting the product to market. Only six months ago, accomplishing something like this would have been impossible for me. I've never written a line of code that's actually worked outside of the modded MySpace page I made back in middle school. I've always had a lot of ideas but have never been able to effectively communicate them to developers who can actually build them. With a combination of ChatGPT-03 and Replit, I was able to build an actual product that works. I'm using it in my browser today. It's pretty insane.

There are thousands of people coming to the same realization at the same time right now and going out there and building niche products very cheaply, with small teams, they are getting to market very quickly, and are amassing five figures, six figures, sometimes seven figures of MRR with extremely high profit margins. What most of these entrepreneurs have not really caught on to yet is that they should be cycling a portion - in my opinion, a large portion - of those profits into bitcoin. The combination of building a company utilizing these AI tools, getting it to market, getting revenue and profits, and turning those profits into bitcoin cannot be understated. You're going to begin seeing teams of one to ten people building businesses worth billions of dollars and they're going to need to store the value they create, any money that cannot be debased.

nostr:nprofile1qyx8wumn8ghj7cnjvghxjmcpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqqgy8fkmd9kmm8yp4lea2cx0g8fyz27g4ud7572j4edx2v6lz6aa23qmp5dth , one of the co-founders of Ten31, wrote about this in early 2024, bitcoin being the fourth lever of equity value growth for companies.

Bitcoin Treasury - The Fourth Lever to Equity Value Growth

We already see this theme playing out at Ten31 with some of our portfolio companies, most notably nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqgdwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkcqpqex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jqjrm2qp , which recently released some of their financials, highlighting the fact that they're extremely profitable with high margins and a relatively small team (\~75). This is extremely impressive, especially when you consider the fact that they're a global company competing with the likes of Coinbase and Block, which have each thousands of employees.

Even those who are paying attention to the developments in the AI space and how the tools can enable entrepreneurs to build faster aren't really grasping the gravity of what's at play here. Many are simply thinking of consumer apps that can be built and distributed quickly to market, but the ways in which AI can be implemented extend far beyond the digital world. Here's a great example of a company a fellow freak is building with the mindset of keeping the team small, utilizing AI tools to automate processes and quickly push profits into bitcoin.

via Cormac

Again, this is where the exciting things are happening in my mind. People leveraging new tools to solve real problems to drive real value that ultimately produce profits for entrepreneurs. The entrepreneurs who decide to save those profits in bitcoin will find that the equity value growth of their companies accelerates exponentially as they provide more value, gain more traction, and increase their profits while also riding the bitcoin as it continues on its monetization phase. The compounded leverage of building a company that leverages AI tools and sweeps profits into bitcoin is going to be one of the biggest asymmetric plays of the next decade. Personally, I also see it as something that's much more fulfilling than the pure play bitcoin treasury companies that are coming to market because consumers and entrepreneurs are able to recive and provide a ton of value in the real economy.

If you're looking to stay on top of the developments in the AI space and how you can apply the tools to help build your business or create a new business, I highly recommend you follow somebody like Greg Isenberg, whose Startup Ideas Podcast has been incredibly valuable for me as I attempt to get a lay of the land of how to implement AI into my businesses.

America's Two Economies

In my recent podcast with Lyn Alden, she outlined how our trade deficits create a cycle that's reshaping America's economic geography. As Alden explained, US trade deficits pump dollars into international markets, but these dollars don't disappear - they return as investments in US financial assets. This cycle gradually depletes industrial heartlands while enriching financial centers on the coasts, creating what amounts to two separate American economies.

"We're basically constantly taking economic vibrancy out of Michigan and Ohio and rural Pennsylvania where the steel mills were... and stuffing it back into financial assets in New York and Silicon Valley." - nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytndv9kxjm3wdahxcqg5waehxw309ahx7um5wfekzarkvyhxuet5qqsw4v882mfjhq9u63j08kzyhqzqxqc8tgf740p4nxnk9jdv02u37ncdhu7e3

This pattern has persisted for over four decades, accelerating significantly since the early 1980s. Alden emphasized that while economists may argue there's still room before reaching a crisis point, the political consequences are already here. The growing divide between these two Americas has fueled populist sentiment as voters who feel left behind seek economic rebalancing, even if they can't articulate the exact mechanisms causing their hardship.

Final thought...

My boys have started a game in the car where we count how many Waymos we see on the road while driving around town. Pretty crazy how innately stoked they are about that particular car.

วันที่ 8 เมษายน 2568 (2025) ทีมนักพัฒนา Solana (@solana_devs) ได้ประกาศเปิดตัว Confidential Balances Token Extensions บน Solana Mainnet

ซึ่งเป็นมาตรฐานโทเค็นที่ใช้เทคโนโลยี Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) เป็นครั้งแรก เพื่อเพิ่มความเป็นส่วนตัว (privacy) และการปฏิบัติตามกฎระเบียบ (compliance) สำหรับการใช้งานในระดับสถาบัน โดยยังคงรักษาความเร็วในการยืนยันธุรกรรมที่ต่ำกว่า 1 วินาที (sub-second finality) อันเป็นจุดเด่นของ Solana

Confidential Balances เป็นชุดของ Token Extensions (ส่วนขยายของโทเค็น) ที่ออกแบบมาเพื่อเพิ่มความเป็นส่วนตัวให้กับธุรกรรมบนบล็อกเชน Solana โดยใช้เทคโนโลยี Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) และ homomorphic encryption เพื่อปกปิดข้อมูลที่ละเอียดอ่อน เช่น จำนวนโทเค็นที่โอน, การสร้าง (mint), การเผา (burn), และค่าธรรมเนียม (fees) ในขณะที่ยังคงรักษาความโปร่งใสที่จำเป็นสำหรับการปฏิบัติตามกฎระเบียบของสถาบัน ฟีเจอร์นี้พัฒนาต่อยอดจาก Confidential Transfers ซึ่งเปิดตัวครั้งแรกในโปรแกรม Token2022 ของ Solana เมื่อเดือนมิถุนายน 2567 (2024) โดย Confidential Balances ขยายขอบเขตการใช้งานให้ครอบคลุมมากขึ้นและตอบโจทย์ทั้งผู้ใช้ทั่วไปและองค์กร คุณสมบัติหลักของ Confidential Balances Confidential Balances ประกอบด้วยส่วนขยายโทเค็น 3 ส่วนหลัก ดังนี้: Confidential Transfers (การโอนแบบเป็นส่วนตัว)
ช่วยให้ผู้ใช้สามารถโอนโทเค็นโดยซ่อน จำนวนเงินที่โอน จากสาธารณะ แต่ที่อยู่ของกระเป๋าเงิน (wallet addresses) ยังคงมองเห็นได้

ใช้ homomorphic encryption และ ZKPs เพื่อให้ระบบสามารถตรวจสอบความถูกต้องของธุรกรรมได้โดยไม่ต้องเปิดเผยจำนวนเงิน

เหมาะสำหรับการใช้งานที่ต้องการความเป็นส่วนตัว เช่น การโอนเงินระหว่างธุรกิจ (B2B payments) หรือการจ่ายเงินเดือน (payroll)

Confidential Transfer Fees (ค่าธรรมเนียมแบบเป็นส่วนตัว)
ปกปิดข้อมูลเกี่ยวกับ ค่าธรรมเนียม ที่เกิดขึ้นในธุรกรรม

ช่วยให้ธุรกรรมทั้งหมด รวมถึงการหักค่าธรรมเนียม มีความเป็นส่วนตัวมากขึ้น

Confidential Mint and Burn (การสร้างและเผาโทเค็นแบบเป็นส่วนตัว)
อนุญาตให้ผู้ออกโทเค็น (token issuers) สามารถ สร้าง (mint) หรือ เผา (burn) โทเค็นโดยไม่เปิดเผยจำนวนโทเค็นทั้งหมด

เหมาะสำหรับโปรเจกต์ที่ต้องการควบคุมปริมาณโทเค็นอย่างเป็นส่วนตัว เช่น Stablecoin หรือโทเค็นที่ใช้ในระบบการเงิน

เทคโนโลยีที่อยู่เบื้องหลัง Confidential Balances ใช้เทคโนโลยี cryptographic ขั้นสูง ดังนี้: Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs): ZKPs ช่วยให้ระบบสามารถพิสูจน์ความถูกต้องของธุรกรรม (เช่น จำนวนเงินที่โอนเพียงพอหรือไม่) โดยไม่ต้องเปิดเผยข้อมูลที่ละเอียดอ่อน ตัวอย่างเช่น ผู้ใช้สามารถพิสูจน์ว่าได้โอนเงินจำนวนหนึ่งโดยไม่ต้องบอกว่าโอนเท่าไหร่

Homomorphic Encryption: การเข้ารหัสแบบโฮโมมอร์ฟิกช่วยให้ระบบสามารถคำนวณข้อมูลที่เข้ารหัสได้โดยตรง โดยไม่ต้องถอดรหัส ซึ่งรักษาความเป็นส่วนตัวของข้อมูลในทุกขั้นตอนของธุรกรรม

ElGamal Encryption: ใช้ในการเข้ารหัสยอดคงเหลือและจำนวนโอน เพื่อให้ข้อมูลเหล่านี้มองเห็นได้เฉพาะผู้ที่มีกุญแจถอดรหัส (เช่น ผู้รับหรือผู้ตรวจสอบที่ได้รับอนุญาต)

Auditor Keys: เพื่อให้สอดคล้องกับกฎระเบียบ สถาบันสามารถใช้ "Auditor Keys" เพื่อตรวจสอบข้อมูลธุรกรรมที่เข้ารหัสได้เมื่อจำเป็น เช่น เพื่อปฏิบัติตามกฎหมายป้องกันการฟอกเงิน (AML) หรือการรายงานภาษี

ประโยชน์และการใช้งาน Confidential Balances ออกแบบมาเพื่อตอบโจทย์ทั้งผู้ใช้ทั่วไปและองค์กร โดยมีประโยชน์หลักดังนี้: เพิ่มความเป็นส่วนตัวโดยไม่สูญเสียประสิทธิภาพ
รักษาความเร็วในการยืนยันธุรกรรม (sub-second finality) และค่าธรรมเนียมที่ต่ำ (มักต่ำกว่า $0.01) ซึ่งเป็นจุดแข็งของ Solana

เปรียบเทียบกับ Ethereum ที่ใช้ zkRollups ซึ่งมีต้นทุนสูงกว่าและช้ากว่า

เหมาะสำหรับการใช้งานในระดับสถาบัน
รองรับการใช้งานในระบบการเงินที่ต้องการความเป็นส่วนตัว เช่น:
Payroll Systems: การจ่ายเงินเดือนที่ไม่เปิดเผยจำนวนเงิน

B2B Payments: การโอนเงินระหว่างธุรกิจที่ต้องการความลับ

Merchant Payment Solutions: การชำระเงินที่ปกป้องข้อมูลลูกค้า

Privacy-Preserving dApps: แอปพลิเคชัน DeFi หรือแอปผู้บริโภคที่เน้นความเป็นส่วนตัว

การปฏิบัติตามกฎระเบียบ
Auditor Keys ช่วยให้หน่วยงานกำกับดูแลสามารถตรวจสอบธุรกรรมได้ตามความจำเป็น โดยไม่กระทบต่อความเป็นส่วนตัวของผู้ใช้ทั่วไป

ทำให้ Solana เป็นตัวเลือกที่น่าสนใจสำหรับสถาบันการเงินที่ต้องปฏิบัติตามกฎหมาย AML, CTF (Counter-Terrorist Financing) หรือการรายงานภาษี

การเข้าถึงที่ง่ายขึ้นสำหรับผู้ใช้ทั่วไป
Solana มีแผนพัฒนา JavaScript-based ZK proof libraries ภายในปี 2568 ซึ่งจะช่วยให้กระเป๋าเงิน (wallets) เช่น Phantom หรือ Backpack สามารถรวมฟีเจอร์ Confidential Balances ได้

ผู้ใช้จะสามารถสร้างและตรวจสอบ ZK proofs ได้โดยตรงจากเบราว์เซอร์หรือแอปมือถือ โดยไม่ต้องพึ่งพาเซิร์ฟเวอร์ภายนอก

สถานะการใช้งานในปัจจุบัน การใช้งานสำหรับนักพัฒนา:
Confidential Balances พร้อมใช้งานแล้วในสภาพแวดล้อม Rust-based backends สำหรับการพัฒนาแบบ server-side

รองรับ Wallets-as-a-Service (WaaS) สำหรับโซลูชัน custodial ซึ่งช่วยอำนวยความสะดวกสำหรับผู้ใช้ที่ไม่ต้องการจัดการกุญแจส่วนตัวเอง

dApps ที่ต้องการจัดการโทเค็นแบบเป็นส่วนตัวสามารถเริ่มใช้งานได้ทันที

ข้อจำกัดในปัจจุบัน:
กระเป๋าเงินสำหรับผู้ใช้ทั่วไป (เช่น Phantom) ยังไม่รองรับฟีเจอร์นี้แบบ native

การพัฒนา JavaScript-based ZK proof libraries คาดว่าจะแล้วเสร็จในปลายปี 2568 ซึ่งจะทำให้การใช้งานง่ายขึ้นสำหรับผู้ใช้ทั่วไป

ตัวอย่างการใช้งานจริง:
โปรเจกต์ Agora Dollar (Stablecoin) เป็นโปรเจกต์แรกที่ใช้ Confidential Transfers เพื่อพัฒนาระบบจ่ายเงินเดือนแบบเป็นส่วนตัวในระดับสถาบัน

Range Security ได้สาธิตการโอน USDT แบบเป็นส่วนตัวโดยใช้ Confidential Transfers เพื่อแสดงศักยภาพของฟีเจอร์นี้

ผลกระทบต่อ Solana และการยอมรับในวงกว้าง การยอมรับจากสถาบัน
Pat Zhang หัวหน้าฝ่ายวิจัยของ WOO X ระบุว่า Confidential Balances อาจช่วยเพิ่มการยอมรับ Solana ในหมู่สถาบันการเงิน เนื่องจากสามารถให้ความเป็นส่วนตัวที่สอดคล้องกับกฎระเบียบได้

การติดตามตัวชี้วัด เช่น การสร้างโทเค็น (token minting), กิจกรรมบนเชน (on-chain metrics), และการใช้งานกระเป๋าเงินของสถาบัน จะเป็นกุญแจในการวัดความสำเร็จของฟีเจอร์นี้

ข้อได้เปรียบด้านต้นทุนและความเร็ว
ค่าธรรมเนียมของ Solana ที่ต่ำ (ต่ำกว่า $0.01) และความเร็วในการทำธุรกรรม ทำให้ฟีเจอร์ความเป็นส่วนตัวนี้เข้าถึงได้ง่ายกว่าบล็อกเชนอื่น เช่น Ethereum ที่ใช้ zkRollups ซึ่งมีต้นทุนสูงกว่า

ความท้าทาย
เนื่องจากฟีเจอร์นี้เพิ่งเปิดตัวได้เพียง 1 เดือน (นับถึงวันที่ 15 พฤษภาคม 2568) ยังยากที่จะประเมินผลกระทบต่อการยอมรับ Solana ในวงกว้าง

ความเสี่ยงด้านความปลอดภัย เช่น การใช้ Confidential Balances ในกลยุทธ์การหลอกลวง (rug pulls) ถูกกล่าวถึงโดย Scott Hague จาก RugCheck ซึ่งแนะนำให้แอปพลิเคชันในระบบนิเวศระบุโทเค็นที่ใช้ฟีเจอร์นี้อย่างชัดเจน

เปรียบเทียบกับ Confidential Transfers เดิม Confidential Transfers (Token2022, มิถุนายน 2567):
มุ่งเน้นที่การโอนโทเค็นโดยซ่อนจำนวนเงิน

เป็นฟีเจอร์เดี่ยวที่เน้นการโอนเพียงอย่างเดียว

Confidential Balances (เมษายน 2568):
ขยายขอบเขตให้ครอบคลุมการโอน, ค่าธรรมเนียม, การสร้าง และการเผาโทเค็น

เป็นชุดของส่วนขยายที่ทำงานร่วมกันเพื่อให้ความเป็นส่วนตัวที่ครอบคลุมมากขึ้น

เพิ่ม Auditor Keys เพื่อรองรับการตรวจสอบสำหรับสถาบัน

อนาคตของ Confidential Balances การพัฒนา JavaScript ZK Libraries: คาดว่าจะเปิดตัวในปลายปี 2568 ซึ่งจะช่วยให้กระเป๋าเงินและ dApps สามารถรวมฟีเจอร์นี้ได้ง่ายขึ้น ตัวอย่างเช่น ผู้ใช้จะสามารถสร้าง ZK proofs ได้โดยตรงจากกระเป๋าเงินบนมือถือหรือเบราว์เซอร์

การรวมเข้ากับกระเป๋าเงินยอดนิยม: กระเป๋าเงินอย่าง Phantom และ Backpack มีแนวโน้มที่จะเพิ่มการรองรับ Confidential Balances ซึ่งจะทำให้ผู้ใช้ทั่วไปสามารถเข้าถึงฟีเจอร์นี้ได้โดยไม่ต้องมีความรู้ด้านเทคนิค

การใช้งานในวงกว้าง:
ระบบการจ่ายเงินเดือนแบบเป็นส่วนตัว

การโอนเงิน B2B ที่ต้องการความลับ

แอปพลิเคชัน DeFi และแอปผู้บริโภคที่เน้นความเป็นส่วนตัว

Stablecoin ที่ต้องการความเป็นส่วนตัว เช่น โปรเจกต์ของ Agora

สรุป Confidential Balances Token Extensions เป็นก้าวสำคัญของ Solana ในการเพิ่มความเป็นส่วนตัวให้กับบล็อกเชน โดยใช้เทคโนโลยี ZKPs และ homomorphic encryption เพื่อปกป้องข้อมูลธุรกรรม ในขณะที่ยังคงรักษาความเร็วและต้นทุนต่ำที่เป็นจุดเด่นของ Solana ฟีเจอร์นี้ไม่เพียงแต่ตอบโจทย์ผู้ใช้ทั่วไปที่ต้องการความเป็นส่วนตัว แต่ยังดึงดูดสถาบันการเงินด้วยการปฏิบัติตามกฎระเบียบผ่าน Auditor Keys ในอนาคต การพัฒนา JavaScript ZK libraries และการรวมเข้ากับกระเป๋าเงินยอดนิยมจะทำให้ Confidential Balances เข้าถึงได้ง่ายขึ้น ซึ่งอาจผลักดันให้ Solana กลายเป็นแพลตฟอร์มชั้นนำสำหรับทั้งแอปพลิเคชันผู้บริโภคและการใช้งานในระดับองค์กร แหล่งข้อมูล:

You don’t have to be a type designer to appreciate what goes into the design of a letterform. In fact, even if you’re just a humble graphic designer, you should have a basic knowledge of what constructs the type you employ.

Typography, for all its concepts, expectations, implications, connotations and artistry, is, ultimately, a system. Just like a body has bones and muscles, every letterform has parts that give it shape, rhythm, and character.

If you're a creative working with type, learning the names of these parts helps you communicate clearly, better analyze your work and others, and design with precision. Everything comes down to a foundational understanding of the anatomy of the letterform and its essential component. So let’s help you with that.

Pangram Pangram Foundry is where the art of typography meets unparalleled craftsmanship. Established in 2018 by designer Mat Desjardins, Pangram Pangram has swiftly risen to become a globally recognized independent type foundry, admired and trusted by industry peers and the design community alike.

There's been a lot of discussion this week about Casey Means being nominated for Surgeon General of the United States and a broader overarching conversation about the effectiveness of MAHA since the inauguration and how effective it may or may not be moving forward. Many would say that President Trump won re-election due to Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Nicole Shanahan deciding to reach across the aisle and join the Trump ticket, bringing with them the MAHA Moms, who are very focused on reorienting the healthcare system in the United States with a strong focus on the childhood vaccine schedule.

I'm not going to lie, this is something I'm passionate about as well, particularly after having many conversations over the years with doctors like Kevin McKernan, Dr. Jack Kruse, Dr. Mary Talley Bowden, Dr. Brooke Miller, Dr. Peter McCullough and others about the dangers of the COVID mRNA vaccines. As it stands today, I think this is the biggest elephant in the room in the world of healthcare. If you look at the data, particularly disability claims, life insurance claims, life expectancy, miscarriage rates, fertility issues and rates of turbo cancer around the world since the COVID vaccine was introduced in 2021, it seems pretty clear that there is harm being done to many of the people who have taken them.

The risk-reward ratio of the vaccines seems to be incredibly skewed towards risk over reward and children - who have proven to be least susceptible to COVID - are expected to get three COVID shots in the first year of their life if their parents follow the vaccine schedule. For some reason or another it seems that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has shied away from this topic after becoming the head of Health and Human Services within the Trump administration. This is after a multi-year campaign during which getting the vaccines removed from the market war a core part of his platform messaging.

I'm still holding out hope that sanity will prevail. The COVID mRNA vaccines will be taken off the market in a serious conversation about the crimes against humanity that unfolded during the COVID years will take place. However, we cannot depend on that outcome. We must build with the assumption in mind that that outcome may never materialize. This leads to identifying where the incentives within the system are misconstrued. One area where I think it's pretty safe to say that the incentives are misaligned is the fact that 95% of doctors work for and answer to a corporation driven by their bottom line. Instead of listening to their patients and truly caring about the outcome of each individual, doctors forced to think about the monetary outcome of the corporation they work for first.

The most pernicious way in which these misaligned incentives emerge is the way in which the hospital systems and physicians are monetarily incentivized by big pharma companies to push the COVID vaccine and other vaccines on their patients. It is important to acknowledge that we cannot be dependent on a system designed in this way to change from within. Instead, we must build a new incentive system and market structure. And obviously, if you're reading this newsletter, you know that I believe that bitcoin will play a pivotal role in realigning incentives across every industry. Healthcare just being one of them.

Bitcoiners who have identified the need to become sovereign in our monetary matters, it probably makes sense to become sovereign when it comes to our healthcare as well. This means finding doctors who operate outside the corporate controlled system and are able to offer services that align incentives with the end patient. My family utilizes a combination of CrowdHealth and a private care physician to align incentives. We've even utilized a private care physician who allowed us to pay in Bitcoin for her services for a number of years. I think this is the model. Doctors accepting hard censorship resistant money for the healthcare and advice they provide. Instead of working for a corporation looking to push pharmaceutical products on their patients so they can bolster their bottom line, work directly with patients who will pay in bitcoin, which will appreciate in value over time.

I had a lengthy discussion with Dr. Jack Kruse on the podcast earlier today discussing these topic and more. It will be released on Thursday and I highly recommend you freaks check it out once it is published. Make sure you subscribe so you don't miss it.

How the "Exorbitant Privilege" of the Dollar is Undermining Our Manufacturing Base

In my conversation with Lyn Alden, we explored America's fundamental economic contradiction. As Lyn expertly explained, maintaining the dollar's reserve currency status while attempting to reshore manufacturing presents a near-impossible challenge - what economists call Triffin's Dilemma. The world's appetite for dollars gives Americans tremendous purchasing power but simultaneously hollows out our industrial base. The overvalued dollar makes our exports less competitive, especially for lower-margin manufacturing, while our imports remain artificially strong.

"Having the reserve currency does come with a bunch of benefits, historically called an exorbitant privilege, but then it has certain costs to maintain it." - Lyn Alden

This dilemma forces America to run persistent trade deficits, as this is how dollars flow to the world. For over four decades, these deficits have accumulated, creating massive economic imbalances that can't be quickly reversed. The Trump administration's attempts to address this through tariffs showcase how difficult rebalancing has become. As Lyn warned, even if we successfully pivot toward reshoring manufacturing, we'll face difficult trade-offs: potentially giving up some reserve currency benefits to rebuild our industrial foundation. This isn't just economic theory - it's the restructuring challenge that will define America's economic future.

Check out the full podcast here for more on China's manufacturing dominance, the role of Bitcoin in monetary transitions, and energy production as the foundation for future industrial power.

Steve Jobs sent me an email saying “Great idea, thank you."

Wait, what? What was the great idea?

new guy at NeXT In October of 1991, I was a new Systems Engineer at NeXT. NeXT, of course, was the company Steve Jobs had founded after leaving Apple in 1985, and which eventually merged back into Apple in 1996. I was one of three employees in Canada, and I think NeXT had about 400 people total.

NeXTMail Mail on the NeXT Computer was pretty amazing in 1991. Multimedia! Fonts! Attachments! Sounds! It’s hard to overstate how cool that was compared to the command line email everybody was used to. Every NeXT user got this email from Steve when they started up their computer.

That message included an attachment of what NeXT called Lip Service, the crazy idea that you could embed an audio file inside an email message. Crazy.

i have an idea

NeXT automatically set everybody up with a first-initial last-name address in the usual way, so I was shayman@next.com, and the big guy was sjobs@next.com.

A few colleagues had somehow acquired cooler email aliases - single letter things, or their first name, or a nickname or an easier to spell version, or whatever. Turns out NeXT had set up some sort of form where you could request an email alias that would redirect to whatever your real email address was.

I also noticed that even though there were seven or eight people at NeXT named Steve, nobody was using the email alias steve@next.com.

So late one Friday night, two weeks into the job, I figured, naively, what the heck, nobody else seems to want it, so I filled in the form asking for steve@next.com to be forwarded to me, shayman@next.com.

In the back of my mind was a vague idea that maybe somebody would have to approve this. But no, it all got set up automatically, and …

Bitcoin Is A Joke

Joe Weisenthal Nov 6, 2013, 10:42 PM UTC

REUTERS/Eliana Aponte

Bitcoin is back in the news, as the digital currency has surged to new all-time highs in recent weeks.

A few weeks ago, it was just above $100. Today it's over $260.

This surge has prompted Timothy B Lee at The Washington Post to ask whether those who have called it a bubble in the past should retract and admit that they were wrong.

Well I'm not totally sure if I've called it a bubble, but I have spoken negatively of it, and I'll say that I still think it's a joke, and probably in a bubble.

Now first of all, I find the premise of Lee's post to be hilarious. The currency has been surging several percent every day lately, and that's evidence that it's not in a bubble?

Before going on, I want to be clear that saying something is a bubble is not saying it will go down. It could go to $500 or $1000 or $10,000. That's the nature of manias.

But make no mistake, Bitcoin is not the currency of the future. It has no intrinsic value.

Now this idea of "intrinsic value" when it comes to currency bothers people, and Bitcoin Bugs will immediately ask why the U.S. dollar has intrinsic value. There's an answer to that. The U.S. Dollar has intrinsic value because the U.S. government which sets the laws of doing business in the United States says it has intrinsic value. If you want to conduct commerce in the United States you have to pay taxes, and there's only one currency you're allowed to pay taxes in: U.S. dollars. There's no getting around this fact. Furthermore, if you want to use the banking system at all, there's no choice but to use U.S. dollars, because that's the currency of the Fed which is behind the whole thing.

On top of all these laws requiring the U.S. dollar to be used, the United States has a gigantic military that can force people around the world to use dollars (if it came to that) so yes, there's a lot of real-world value behind greenbacks.

Bitcoin? Nada. There's nothing keeping it being a thing. If people lose faith in it, it's over. Bitcoin is fiat currency in the most literal sense of the word.

But it gets worse. Bitcoin is mostly just a speculative vehicle. Yes, there are PR stunts about bars and other shops accepting bitcoins. And there is a Bitcoin ATM for some reason. But mostly Bitcoin is a speculative vehicle. And really, you'd be insane to actually conduct a sizable amount of commerce in bitcoins. That's because the price swings so wildly, that the next day, there's a good chance that one of the parties will have gotten royally screwed. Either the purchaser of the good will have ended up totally blowing a huge opportunity (by not holding longer) or the seller will be totally screwed (if Bitcoin instantly plunges). The very volatility that excited people to want to play the Bitcoin game is death when it comes to real transactions in the real world.

Again, Bitcoin might go up a lot more before it ultimately ends. That's the nature of bubbles. The dotcom bubble crashed a bunch of times on its way up. Then one day it ended. The same will happen with this.

In the meantime, have fun speculating!

Video Summary

ADHD is not genetic! In this video, we’ll examine the profound connection between ADHD and diet. Discover the foods that worsen ADHD symptoms, the relationship between ADHD and sugar intake, and the best ADHD diet to address the nutritional deficiencies that may be causing some of the symptoms in the first place.

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is typically diagnosed by identifying the following ADHD symptoms: •Makes mistakes easily •Lack of attention to detail •Does not listen when spoken to directly •Doesn’t complete tasks •Cannot play quietly •Problems organizing •Loses things •Frequent fidgeting •Too much energy •Talks too much

Many ADHD symptoms are normal childhood behaviors, and a poor diet can exaggerate all of them.

ADHD is often treated with Adderall and Ritalin, which make lots of money for Big Pharma. The definition of ADHD has been dramatically expanded to make it more diagnosable, putting more people on medication.

A double-blinded study showed that after 36 months, any benefits from Adderall faded to zero. It also has side effects such as aggressive behavior or a dulled mood.

ADHD involves a metabolic problem with the prefrontal cortex of the brain. These metabolic changes affect the way the brain metabolizes fuel. If the brain is starved of fuel, you may exhibit symptoms like a lack of attention and hyperactivity. Chemicals like food dyes, artificial sweeteners, sugar, starch, and MSG tremendously impact behavior.

Increasing dopamine can improve focus and feelings of calmness. Foods such as meat, fish, eggs, and cheese are high in the amino acid L-tyrosine, the precursor to dopamine.

Research has shown that micronutrients, especially B6, magnesium, and zinc, can significantly decrease ADHD symptoms. Omega-3 fatty acids and fish oils can also improve symptoms without side effects.

Vitamin B1 is one of the most overlooked nutrients, especially in psychiatric conditions. When a child consumes a lot of glucose, vitamin B1 is depleted, inhibiting the brain’s ability to utilize fuel.

If an adult or child is experiencing ADHD symptoms, they should switch to a low-carb diet so their body can run on ketones. Ketones will fuel the neurons and restore a sense of calmness and increased attention span.

Since 2022, Dungeons and Dragons has been going down a sort of death spiral after the release of a revised version of 5th Edition... which didn't turn out very well to say the least. In light of that, I present a list of TTRPGs you can play if you don't want to purchase 5E. I wouldn't recommend 5E, as I've DM'd it in the past. It tastes like a lollipop that's cockroach and larvae flavored.

This list of TTRPG games is in no particular order, though my favorite of these systems is number one.

1. Basic Fantasy Role-Playing Game (BFRPG)
2. B/X-style OSR retroclone with ascending armor class, and the original retroclone from 2006
3. Fully libre under CC BY-SA for the 4th Edition, and OGL 1.0a for 1-3 Editions.
4. Full books are free PDF files on the website (Basic Fantasy Website)
5. All BFRPG editions are compatible with each other, meaning you can have a 3rd Edition book to a 4th Edition game and still have fun. 4th Edition is just the removal of the 3E SRD that's in the OGL editions.
6. As with the core rulebooks, all the supplementation is free as a PDF as well, though you can buy physical books at cost (BFRPG principal rights holder Chris Gonnerman doesn't make much profit from Basic Fantasy)
7. Old-school community that's an all-around fantastic group of players, authors and enthusiasts.

8. Fun Fact: Out of all the TTRPGs I'd want to DM/GM the most, it'd be this one by far.

9. Iron Falcon (IF)

10. OD&D-style retroclone from 2015 (It's also by Gonnerman, same guy behind BFRPG)
11. A close ruleset to the White Box rules and supplements
12. Also fully libre under CC BY-SA for the latest releases, just like BFRPG for 4th Edition releases
13. Just like BFRPG, the core rules and supplementation come as PDF files for free, or physical books.

14. Fast and loose ruleset open to interpretation, just like in 1975-1981... somewhere right around that timeline for OD&D

15. Old-School Reference and Index Compendium (OSRIC)

16. AD&D 1E-based retroclone by Stewart Marshall and Matt Finch
17. An old system that surprisingly still holds up, even after a long time of no new versions of the rules
18. Extremely in-depth ruleset, licensed under OGL 1.0a and OSRIC Open License
19. Compatible with AD&D 1e modules for the 1st Edition, though 2.2 potentially has its own supplementation

20. I don't know much about it, as I'd be too slow to learn it. That's all I know, which is the above.

21. Ironsworn

22. Custom loosely-based PbtA (Powered by the Apocalypse) system by Shawn Tomkin from 2018
23. Includes GM, GMless and solo play in the rulebook
24. Supplementation is surely something else with one look at the downloads section for the PDFs of the original, which is free under CC BY-NC-SA. The SRD is under CC BY otherwise.
25. No original adventures are made for this system as are known, as it's expected that the Ironlands are where they take place

26. Fun Fact: This was a non-D&D system I considered running as a GM.

27. Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition (AD&D 2e)

28. An official edition from 1989-2000
29. At the time, the most customizable edition in its history, before 3E took the spot as the most customizable edition
30. A streamlined revision of the AD&D 1E rules (AD&D 1E was exclusively written by E. Gary Gygax)
31. The end of old-school D&D, as 3E and beyond are different games altogether
32. Wide array of supplementation, which oversaturated 2E's customization... and most of it didn't sell well as a result
33. Final TSR-published edition of D&D, as they went bankrupt and out of business during this edition's life cycle, to then be liquidated to Wizards of the Coast (Boy did WOTC mess it up once 5.1E was released)

34. Fun Fact: A Canadian history professor named Dr. Robert Wardough runs a customized ruleset using 2E as a base, which he's been DMing since the 80's during the "Satanic Panic" (The Satanic Panic was fake as a result of horrible deceivers gaslighting people to not play D&D). He started RAW (Rules as Written), but saw some things he needed to change for his games, so he did so over time.

35. Moldvay/Cook Basic/Expert Dungeons & Dragons (B/X)

36. Competing system to 1E from 1981 and 1982
37. Official edition of D&D, part of the old-school era
38. Simplified rules for Basic, but some decently complex rules for Expert
39. Only goes up to Lv. 14, as it's potentially a 1E or White Box primer (similar to 1977 Basic)
40. Supplementation, from some research done, was decent for the time, and a little bit extensive
41. The inspiration for BFRPG in 2006 (Did I mention this already? Maybe I have, but I might emphasize that here too.)

42. Fun Fact: I considered running B/X, but decided that I'd do BFRPG, as the ascending armor class is easier math than with B/X and the THAC0 armor class (descending armor class).

43. Basic, Expert, Companion, Master, Immortal Dungeons & Dragons (BECMI) and/or Rules Cyclopedia

44. 1983 variant of the Moldvay/Cook Basic/Expert system, an official edition and part of the old-school era
45. Essentially, 1981 B/X D&D on steroids
46. 5 boxed sets were released for the five parts of the rules for this system
47. Rules Cyclopedia is a reprint of the 1983 Basic, Expert, Companion and Master rules boxed sets. The Immortal set was never reprinted outside of the original boxed set because Immortal is such a bizarre game within a game altogether.
48. With the first 4 boxed sets (whether individual sets or the Rules Cyclopedia), levels are 1-36

49. Fun Fact: This edition I was considering DMing as well, alongside BFRPG. They're similar rulesets with some mechanical differences, but I think either or would be worth it.

50. Original Dungeons & Dragons (OD&D or White Box)

51. The original release of D&D from 1974 written by Gygax and Dave Arneson, published by TSR
52. Uses the rules from Chainmail, a wargame made by Gygax and Jeff Perren
53. Base has three little booklets (Men & Magic, Monsters & Magic, and The Underworld & Wilderness Adventures), five official supplements were released (Greyhawk; Blackmoor; Eldritch Wizardry; Gods, Demi-Gods and Heroes; and Swords & Spells), and many more from fanzines
54. Fast and loose ruleset open to interpretation
55. Not based upon adventurers taking on dangerous quest, but kings commanding armies (which is why OD&D is actually a Chainmail supplement). The latter was the original purpose of D&D before it got changed in 2000.

There are many more games that are not D&D that you can look up too. See what you like, read the rules, learn them, and start playing with your group. Have fun and slay some monsters!

What happens when you integrate a Nostr client with a bitcoin lightning wallet? They both get massively better! Social interactions benefit from seamless micropayments, while the wallet is able to tap into the massive address book represented by the Nostr social graph. This makes it possible to interact with people around the world in totally new ways. For example, Markus from Germany can zap a note posted by Isabella in Costa Rica, who can then buy a coffee with those sats, all from the same app.

At Primal, our goal is to deliver products that have mass appeal; products that can be easily used by anyone. Our latest iOS release represents our best take on how to build on open protocols and balance the tradeoffs between user sovereignty, user experience and ease of use. We believe that Nostr and Bitcoin will grow to billions of users, and we are building the technology that will help onboard and delight everyone.

Nostr Onboarding

Our goal is to achieve the highest level of user experience on a decentralized network, without sacrificing user sovereignty over their account, connections, and content. Therefore the onboarding process needs to be smooth and resemble what users are used to on legacy platforms, while providing access to their Nostr keys:

The user is able to sign up and start using Nostr quickly and without friction. Their key is available in the Account Settings, providing complete control over their Nostr account. In addition, the user can specify the set of Nostr relays they wish to publish to. The Primal iOS app signs all content with the user’s key and publishes it directly to the specified set of relays. This achieves full user control over their Nostr account, social connections, and the content they publish.

Performance & UX

In order to compete with the centralized legacy platforms, we must match and exceed their level of user experience. Interfaces must load quickly and completely, otherwise people will lose interest and Nostr will see a high degree of user churn. With this in mind, we built the Nostr caching service, and open sourced it so that other Nostr developers can leverage it as well. This enables us to provide the types of user experiences that are expected by most people today:

For details about our caching approach please refer to my Nostrasia presentation.

Primal Wallet

We are psyched to introduce Primal Wallet, an insanely easy-to-use transactional wallet, ideal for holding small amounts of bitcoin and making payments on the lightning network.

Strike is providing custody, fiat conversions, and lightning network connectivity to Primal users. By integrating with Strike, we are able to provide uninterrupted service to U.S. and international customers.

Smooth onboarding and wallet operation are essential for our use case. Given that we are dealing with very small amounts, we decided to take the custodial approach. This sacrifices direct user custody over the funds, but makes the overall UX seamless and reliable. New users are able to send and receive sats as soon as they download the app.

Here are a few additional points to keep in mind:

1. \In-App Purchases\: Once the wallet is activated, it is fully-operational and able to receive sats. If the user doesn’t own any sats, they are able to buy small amounts via an in-app purchase, in $5 increments. Note that these purchases are subject to “Apple tax” (15% in U.S. and Canada, 30% elsewhere, for customers with iOS devices), plus 1% Strike margin. Primal does not make any revenue on these purchases. Users can always buy sats through a different method and send them to their Primal Wallet. The in-app purchase is merely a convenient way for new users to get started with small amounts.

2. \Maximum Wallet Balance\: Primal Wallet is designed for holding and transacting with small amounts of bitcoin. Larger amounts should be kept in self custody, preferably on a hardware wallet. To encourage self custody for larger amounts, we are enforcing a maximum wallet balance of 1,000,000 sats (approximately USD $400 at the time of this writing).

We believe that Primal Wallet offers the best tradeoff balance for our use case, including social media zaps, and small purchases: coffee, beer, lunch, etc. We are planning to expand the feature set of the wallet in the upcoming releases, based on the feedback from our users.

Open Networks Win

Nostr is an open network, not controlled by any person, company, nor organization. Anyone can join without asking for permission, and any developer is free to build on it. In a short amount of time, hundreds of projects have sprouted building on Nostr, including: Damus, Amethyst, Snort, Highlighter, Alby, Nos, Mutiny, Coracle, ZBD, Fountain, Habla.news, Plebstr, Spring, Iris, Nostrgram, Current, Blogstack, Zap.stream, Listr, Nostr.band, Nostr.build, Flycat, Nosta.me, NoStrudel, Nostur, Nostore, Zaplife, Wavlake, and many more.

Your Nostr keys work with Primal, as well as every other app in the Nostr ecosystem. You can seamlessly use your Nostr identity in social media apps, blog/news sites, marketplaces, etc. Every Nostr product brings more users and more gravity to the entire network. This is why we believe that Nostr will eventually connect everybody.

If you are not satisfied with the status quo dictated by the legacy media complex, if you think that the global town square should not be owned by anyone, if you feel that people should be in control over their online identity, social connections, and the content they publish - you do have a choice. Join us on Nostr. 🤙💜

My secret to making money while the market is crashing. .

Hey there! I’m just an average person who stumbled into the wild world of cryptocurrency a few years back. Like most people, I’ve seen the ups and downs—those euphoric highs when Bitcoin hits a new all-time high and the gut-wrenching lows when the market crashes and everyone panics. But here’s the thing: I’ve figured out a way to make money even when the charts are bleeding red. Today, I’m spilling my secret on how I turn crypto crashes into cash. Let's dive in!

Why Market Crashes Don’t Scare Me Anymore. When I first started in crypto, a market crash would send me into a spiral. I’d watch my portfolio shrink and feel like I’d made a huge mistake. But over time, I realized something: crashes are just part of the game. They’re not the end—they’re an opportunity. The trick is shifting your mindset. Instead of seeing a crash as a loss, I now see it as a sale. Prices drop, panic sets in, and that’s when I get to work. Here’s how I do it.

Here’s my secret technique. 1.Buying the Dip: My Go-To Move: You’ve probably heard the phrase “buy low, sell high.” It sounds simple, but it’s my bread and butter during a crash. When the market tanks, I don’t run away—I lean in. I keep some cash (or stablecoins like USDT) ready on the sidelines for these moments. When I see a solid project—like Ethereum, Solana, or even some smaller altcoins I’ve researched—drop 30%, 50%, or more, I scoop it up. For example, during the last big crash, I grabbed some ETH at a price I hadn’t seen in months. A few weeks later, when the market bounced back, I sold a chunk of it for a tidy profit. The key? Patience and knowing what I’m buying. I don’t just throw money at random coins—I stick to projects with strong fundamentals that I believe will recover.

2.Staking: Earning While I Wait: Here’s where my secret really shines: staking. When the market crashes, I don’t just sit on my coins and hope for the best. I put them to work. Staking is like earning interest on your crypto—you lock it up in a wallet or platform, and you get rewarded with more coins over time. During a downturn, I stake coins like Cardano (ADA) or Polkadot (DOT) on platforms I trust. The beauty is, even if the price is low, I’m still earning extra tokens. By the time the market recovers, I’ve got more coins than I started with, plus the price is climbing. It’s like getting paid to wait out the storm. Last crash, ascended to the top of the food chain, and I’m loving it.

3.Selling High: Timing Is Everything: Buying low is only half the equation—I also know when to sell. I don’t get greedy. When a coin I’ve staked or bought cheap starts pumping after a crash, I take profits. I don’t wait for the “moon” because I’ve learned the hard way that crypto can turn on a dime. My rule? If I’ve doubled my money or hit a target I set, I sell a portion and keep the rest for the long haul. It’s a balance—cash in some gains but stay in the game.

My Secret Sauce: Staying Calm: The real secret isn’t just the strategies—it’s me. I don’t panic. I don’t FOMO into hype. I stick to my plan, do my homework, and tune out the noise. Crypto is emotional, but I’ve trained myself to think long-term. Crashes don’t last forever, and I’ve seen enough cycles to know the market always bounces back. That’s how I make money while everyone else is losing their minds.

My Final Thoughts Making money in crypto during a crash isn’t magic—it’s about preparation, patience, and playing smart. I buy when others sell, stake to grow my stash, and sell when the time’s right. It’s worked for me, and I’m still learning every day. So next time the market crashes, don’t freak out—see it as your chance to cash in.

Hulladékgazdálkodás – 2025. május 13. | Írta: David Dalton

A francia nukleáris hulladéktároló projekt akár 37 milliárd euróba is kerülhet, közölte az Andra

Franciaország mélygeológiai tároló projektje várhatóan 26 milliárd euró (28,9 milliárd dollár) és 37,5 milliárd euró között fog kerülni – közölte a nemzeti nukleáris hulladékügynökség, az Andra május 12-én, ami magasabb a korábbi, mintegy 25 milliárd eurós becslésnél.

A Cigéo nevű projekt Franciaország központi létesítménye lesz a nukleáris erőművekből és egyéb reaktor létesítményekből származó nagy aktivitású radioaktív hulladék hosszú távú tárolására.

Az Andra szerint az ipari minisztérium rendelete várhatóan az év végéig véglegesíti a költségeket, amelyek referenciaként szolgálnak majd a következő felülvizsgálatig. Mind a költségek, mind a helyszín további felülvizsgálatok elé néznek, legkésőbb 2026 végéig.

Az építkezés 2027-ben kezdődhet, amennyiben a francia nukleáris biztonsági hatóság (ASN – Autorité de sûreté nucléaire) jóváhagyja a kérelmet, és az első hulladékcsomagokat 2050-ben fogadnák, a várható üzemidő pedig 100 év.

2023 júniusában az ASN elfogadta, és megkezdte az Andra által benyújtott Cigéo létesítmény építési kérelmének vizsgálatát.

A Cigéo a legmagasabb aktivitású, egyben leghosszabb élettartamú radioaktív hulladékok elhelyezésére szolgál egy mélygeológiai tárolóban, amely a Meuse és Haute-Marne megyék határán, Északkelet-Franciaországban található.

Jelenleg a világon sehol nem működik hosszú távú hulladéktároló létesítmény a polgári nukleáris energia programokból származó nagy aktivitású hulladék számára.

A Nemzetközi Atomenergia Ügynökség szerint Franciaország, Finnország és Svédország az a három ország, amely a legnagyobb előrelépést tette ilyen létesítmények üzembe helyezése felé.

A finnországi Onkalo tároló várhatóan a világ első működő mélygeológiai elhelyezési létesítménye lesz, teljes üzembe helyezése a 2020-as évek közepére várható.

Európa „aggályokat fogalmazott meg” a cseh–dél-koreai nukleáris megállapodással kapcsolatban

Az Európai Bizottság arra kérte a Cseh Köztársaságot, hogy halassza el a legalább 18 milliárd dollár (16,9 milliárd euró) értékű szerződés aláírását a dél-koreai Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power (KHNP) vállalattal új atomerőművek építésére, amíg kivizsgálják az esetleges külföldi támogatások felhasználását – közölte egy bizottsági szóvivő május 12-én a Reuters szerint.

A szóvivő elmondta, hogy Stephane Séjourné, az ipari stratégia biztosa egy levélben fejezte ki aggodalmát a dél-koreai pályázatot érintő külföldi támogatások szabályozásával kapcsolatban.

„Még nem tartunk ott, hogy mélyreható vizsgálatot indítanánk, és nem szeretném előre megjósolni, hogy eljutunk-e oda vagy sem” – mondta a szóvivő.

A cseh CTK hírügynökség idézte Petr Fiala cseh miniszterelnököt, aki szerint bár a levél a biztostól származik, az nem képviseli a Bizottság hivatalos álláspontját, és nincs kötelező érvénye.

Az Euractiv szerint egy bizottsági szóvivő újságíróknak május 12-én azt mondta, hogy Séjourné levele „semmiképpen sem kérte a folyamat leállítását”.

Az Euractiv szerint Séjourné levele azt írja, hogy a Bizottság vizsgálja, kapott-e a KHNP tiltott állami támogatást az EU-s szabályozás szerint, amikor elnyerte a két atomerőmű építésére kiírt tendert.

A reaktorprojektért felelős cseh vállalat, az Elektrarna Dukovany II (EDU II) közleményt adott ki, amelyben megvédte a kiválasztási folyamatot, és felszólította az EDF-et, hogy hozza nyilvánosságra a tenderben benyújtott ajánlatát.

Az EDU II, a cseh állami közműcég, a ČEZ leányvállalata kijelentette, hogy kész „teljes kártérítést követelni” és megvédeni a részvényesi értéket bármilyen peres eljárással szemben.

A közlemény szerint az illegális támogatásról szóló állítások „a sikertelen pályázó spekulációi”.

Dél-Korea és Csehország megerősítette elkötelezettségét az atomerőmű-szerződés aláírása mellett, annak ellenére, hogy egy bírósági döntés ideiglenesen elhalasztotta a szerződéskötést.

A sajtóhírek szerint a cseh kormány május 7-i ülésén kijelentette, hogy az EDU II a lehető leghamarabb folytatja a szerződéskötést a KHNP-vel két atomerőmű építésére.

A két új, nagy kapacitású APR1400 típusú reaktort a KHNP szállítja, és a csehországi Dukovany atomerőmű telephelyén építik fel.

Az eredetileg május 7-re tervezett szerződésaláírást elhalasztották, miután bírósági végzés született az EDF, a tenderen sikertelen pályázó jogi kifogása nyomán.

Izrael tervezi első kereskedelmi atomerőművét

Javaslatot fontolgatnak Izrael első kereskedelmi atomerőművének megépítésére Shivta közelében, az ország déli részén, bár kétségek merültek fel a helyi ellenállás és Izrael atomsorompó-szerződésen (NPT) kívüli státusza miatt.

Közel-keleti jelentések szerint a terveket a jövő héten vizsgálja meg a regionális tervezési és építési bizottság, amely a Negev-sivatagi térségben felépítendő létesítményért felelős.

A jelentések szerint a bizottság már „erős ellenállását” fejezte ki a tervvel szemben.

A nemzetközi aggályok középpontjában Izrael NPT-szerződésen kívüli státusza és az a tény áll, hogy nem fogadta el a Nemzetközi Atomenergia Ügynökség (IAEA) ellenőrzését néhány főbb nukleáris tevékenységére. Az NPT az IAEA felügyelete alatt biztosítja, hogy a nukleáris anyagokat és létesítményeket ne tereljék katonai célokra.

Izrael ugyan működtet kutatóreaktorokat, de nincs kereskedelmi atomerőműve. Az évek során többször is fontolgatta kereskedelmi atomerőművek építésének lehetőségét.

Az izraeli Ynet News szerint a javaslat számos megválaszolatlan kérdést vet fel, például hogy melyik ország építené meg az erőművet, tekintettel Izrael NPT-n kívüli státuszára. További aggályok a nukleáris üzemanyag forrására, a sivatagi klímában szükséges hűtőrendszerre, valamint a víz szállításának logisztikájára vonatkoznak.

A Ynet News szerint más lehetséges helyszíneket különböző okokból elvetettek, például a katonai repülőtér közelsége, geológiai vizsgálatok eredményei vagy a népsűrűség miatt.

Kutatás és fejlesztés – 2025. május 13. | Írta: David Dalton

Tajvani kutatási projekt nyithat utat fejlett atomerőművek előtt

A Tajvani Nemzeti Atomkutató Intézet (Nari) elindított egy 3,3 millió dolláros (2,9 millió eurós) kis moduláris reaktor (SMR) kutatási projektet, amely utat nyithat fejlett atomerőművek bevezetéséhez azon a szigeten, ahol hamarosan leállítják az összes régebbi, nagy kapacitású reaktort.

Az új nukleáris technológiák kutatása akkor kezdődött, amikor a kormány ezen a hétvégén véglegesen leállítja a Maanshan-2 atomerőművet Pingtung megyében, Dél-Tajvanon, teljesítve ígéretét, hogy Tajvant nukleárismentessé teszi.

Az SMR-eket a Nemzetközi Atomenergia Ügynökség 300 MW vagy annál kisebb kapacitásúnak definiálja, ami körülbelül egyharmada egy hagyományos atomerőmű teljesítményének. Moduláris kialakításuk lehetővé teszi a gyári előállítást és könnyebb telepítést a nagy atomerőművekhez képest. Az SMR-ek gyártói a moduláris alkatrészek tömeggyártásával kívánnak méretgazdaságosságot elérni.

2024 júliusában az állami tulajdonú atomerőmű tulajdonos és üzemeltető Taipower közölte, hogy leállította a Maanshan-1 atomerőművet, így az országban már csak egy reaktor, a Maanshan-2 maradt kereskedelmi üzemelésben.

A Maanshan-1, egy 936 MW-os nyomottvizes reaktor (PWR) leállítása közepette tovább folytatódik a törvényhozók vitája arról, hogy meghosszabbítsák-e a sziget nukleáris létesítményeinek élettartamát.

2023-ban a nukleáris energia Tajvan villamosenergia-termelésének mintegy 6,9%-át tette ki, amelyet főként szén és cseppfolyósított földgáz ural.

A Taipower szerint a Maanshan-1 leállításával a nukleáris forrásból származó áram aránya 2,8%-ra csökken.

Egy időben Tajvan hat reaktora az iparilag erősen fejlett sziget villamosenergia-termelésének több mint felét biztosította.

A Maanshan-1 1984 júliusában kezdte meg a kereskedelmi üzemet, és most járt le a 40 éves működési engedélye. A 938 MW-os Maanshan-2 várhatóan 2025. május 18-án, 40 év üzem után áll le.

„Nagyon nyitottak” az új nukleáris technológiára

Tavaly év végén Tajvan miniszterelnöke, Cho Jung-tai azt mondta, az ország „nagyon nyitott” az új nukleáris technológia alkalmazására, hogy kielégítse a chipgyártók növekvő áramigényét, akik az AI-robbanáshoz használnak villamos energiát.

„Amíg Tajvanon konszenzus van a nukleáris biztonságról, és jó irány és garancia van a hulladékkezelésre, ezzel az erős konszenzussal lefolytathatjuk a nyilvános vitát” – mondta Cho a Bloomberg Newsnak adott interjúban.

Megjegyzései az egyik legerősebb jelei annak, hogy a kormány újragondolja ellenállását a kereskedelmi atomerőművekkel szemben.

Cho vélhetően fejlett reaktorokra, köztük az SMR-ekre utalt, amelyeket számos országban fejlesztenek.

Past week summary

From a Self Custody for Organizations perspective, after analyzing the existing protocols (Cerberus, 10xSecurityBTCguide and Glacier) and reading a bunch of relates articles and guides, have wrapped to the conclusion that this format it is good to have as reference. However, something else is needed. For example, a summary or a map of the whole process to provide an overview, plus a way to deliver all the information and the multy-process in a more enjoyable way. Not a job for this hackathon, but with the right collaborations I assume it's possible to: - build something that might introduce a bit more quests and gamification - provide a learning environment (with testnet funds) could also be crucial on educating those unfamiliar with bitcoin onchain dynamics.

Have been learning more and playing around practicing best accessibility practices and how it could be applied to a desktop software like Bitcoin Safe. Thanks to @johnjherzog for providing a screen recording of his first experience and @jasonb for suggesting the tools to be used. (in this case tested/testing on Windows with the Accessibility Insights app). Some insight shared have been also applied to the website, running a full accessibility check (under WCAG 2.2 ADA, and Section 508 standards) with 4 different plugins and two online tools. I recognize that not all of them works and analyze the same parameters, indeed they complement each other providing a more accurate review.

For Bitcoin Safe interface improvements, many suggestions have been shared with @andreasgriffin , including: - a new iconset, including a micro-set to display the number of confirmed blocs for each transaction - a redesigned History/Dashboard - small refinements like adding missing columns on the tables - allow the user to select which columns to be displayed - sorting of unconfirmed transactions - Defining a new style for design elements like mempool blocks and quick receive boxes You can find below some screenshots with my proposals that hopefully will be included in the next release.

Last achievement this week was to prepare the website https://Safe.BTC.pub, the container where all the outcomes f this experiment will be published. You can have a look, just consider it still WIP. Branding for the project has also been finalized and available in this penpot file https://design.penpot.app/#/workspace?team-id=cec80257-5021-8137-8005-eab60c043dd6&project-id=cec80257-5021-8137-8005-eab60c043dd8&file-id=95aea877-d515-80ac-8006-23a251886db3&page-id=132f519a-39f4-80db-8006-2a41c364a545

What's for next week

After spending most of the time learning and reading material, this coming week will be focused on deliverables. The goal as planned will be to provide: - Finalized Safe₿its brand and improve overall desktop app experience, including categorization of transactions and addresses - An accessibility report or guide for Bitcoin Safe and support to implement best practices - A first draft of the Self-Custody for Organizations guide/framework/protocol, ideally delivered through the website http://Safe.BTC.pub in written format, but also as FlowChart to help have an overview of the whole resources needed and the process itself. This will clearly define preparations and tools/hardwares needed to successfully complete the process.

There’s a certain elegance to outliving your enemies. Not the cinematic kind, with poisoned cigars or cunning plots, but the quieter, more refined triumph of still being around when everyone who ever underestimated you has long since retired, expired, or become inexplicably fond of sudoku. It’s a victory without confetti. You simply keep showing up, well-dressed and unimpressed.

![image](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/29b7a8_22d7accec0df461aa0dcbcb5c10b1af5~mv2.png/v1/fill/w_1480,h_1480,al_c,q_95,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_avif,quality_auto/29b7a8_22d7accec0df461aa0dcbcb5c10b1af5~mv2.png

Our culture, with its short memory and shorter attention span, tends to applaud longevity the way one might cheer a particularly stubborn houseplant. We admire it without quite knowing what to do with it. The 100-year-old is both a relic and a marvel, treated with the same combination of awe and condescension as a rotary phone that still works. Everyone wants to know their secret. Few want to sit through the whole story. You, with your apps and your probiotics, are terribly impressed with yourself. They, having seen the world collapse and reboot twice before lunch, are not.

But the story is precisely the point. People who live one hundred years, unbowed, haven’t just survived; they’ve accumulated. Not just wrinkles or regrets, but time - real, textured time. Empires fade, music changes key, and a dozen generations believe they’ve discovered something new, only to be gently reminded that no, that too has been done, probably in better shoes. Society, ever the fidgety child, can’t quite decide whether to venerate or gently ignore its centenarians. Yet the centenarian doesn’t need to be wise or witty. They’ve simply borne witness, which in this noisy world is radical enough.

I was reminded of all this recently at the 100th birthday of a dear friend, a second father really. It wasn’t a grand affair, but it was exquisite in the way truly rare things often are. There was a quiet resilience in the room, a kind of grace that doesn’t ask for applause. Watching someone you care about cross the threshold into a second century - still sharp, still unmistakably themselves - isn’t just inspiring; it’s grounding.

Cozy room with a vintage armchair and side table. Open book and shoes on wooden floor. Sunlight filters through a window, creating a warm atmosphere.

And so, in their honor, this week’s post is a tribute to a few of those remarkable individuals who not only made it to the triple digits but managed to remain, somehow, defiantly themselves all the way there.

Bob Hope (1903 – 2003)

Bob Hope may not be a household name anymore, but for much of the 20th century, he was practically a part of everyone’s household. Born in 1903, he became the blueprint for the modern entertainer: part comedian, part actor, part relentless emcee of the American psyche.

Man - Bob Hope - in a checkered suit and striped tie smiles in a black and white photo. Blurred foliage in the background.

Before stand-up was a career path and before anyone thought to put jokes on late-night television, Hope was crisscrossing the globe with a microphone in one hand and a golf club in the other, cracking wise for movie stars, eleven presidents, and countless thousands of homesick soldiers. He wasn’t just famous - he was a part of the family. Your grandparents didn’t need to like comedy to know who Bob Hope was. He was baked into the cultural cake.

But what makes him worthy of this list isn’t just his longevity - though making it to 100 with your timing intact is no small feat. It’s that he stayed Bob Hope the whole time. He managed to remain a household name through every major technological shift from vaudeville to cable. Always with the same self-deprecating grin, the same deadpan delivery, the same tireless drive to entertain, whether on a dusty military base, golf club in hand, or a glitzy awards stage.

A man on stage - Bob Hope - in front of a large crowd of soldiers, some holding "BOB" signs. The mood is lively, with soldiers clapping and smiling.

In a business that burns through personalities like kindling, Hope managed to stay relevant without ever pretending to be something he wasn’t. He adapted, yes - but he never shape-shifted. And that’s no punchline; that’s staying power.

David Attenborough (Honorable Mention 1926 - )

Sir David Attenborough hasn’t just lived for nearly a century - he’s narrated it.

Elderly man in a blue suit - David Attenborough - smiles softly outdoors with blurred green background. He has white hair and wears a white shirt, conveying warmth.

Born in 1926, he’s now pushing the hundred mark with the same quiet intensity and clipped eloquence that made "Planet Earth" a phrase we all say with reverence. For decades, Attenborough has been the voice in our heads while we watch iguanas outrun snakes or bioluminescent squid flash their Morse code in the abyss. But beyond the velvet tones and impeccable suits, there’s something more enduring: a man who has remained unflinchingly curious in a world that increasingly isn’t. While others have shouted into the void, Attenborough has whispered, and when he whispers, we listened.

What makes him extraordinary isn’t just the longevity - it’s the fact that he’s never softened his message to suit the moment. In his nineties, when most people are congratulated for remembering their Wi-Fi password, Attenborough was delivering urgent speeches at climate summits and lending gravitas to a collapsing ecosystem. He has aged, yes, but never aged out. His moral clarity, his scientific reverence, and his profound respect for the natural world have never been dulled by time. If anything, they've sharpened.

Elderly man - David Attenborough - seated on a wooden chair with arms crossed, wearing a gray sweater against a dark background. Calm, contemplative expression.

Sir David may be approaching 100, but he's still out there - gently scolding us, brilliantly informing us, and above all, remaining unmistakably, irreplaceably himself.

Fauja Singh (1911 - )

Fauja Singh didn’t just reach 100 - he ran there.

Elderly man - Fauja Singh - jogging on a grassy hill, wearing a yellow turban and sportswear. City skyline and lush greenery in the background. Calm mood.

Born in 1911 in British India, he took up competitive marathon running in his 80s, which is roughly the age most people start describing trips to the mailbox as “exercise.” At 100, he completed the Toronto Waterfront Marathon, becoming the first centenarian to do so. He wasn’t running for medals or money or anyone’s approval - he was running because his legs still said yes. In a culture obsessed with youth and speed, Singh offered something quietly radical: the image of an old man moving forward, steadily, joyfully, and entirely on his own terms.

But what truly sets Fauja Singh apart isn't just the records - though those are impressive - but the gentleness with which he carried them. Soft-spoken, devoutly Sikh, and famously modest, he turned down sponsorships that conflicted with his values and credited his endurance to simple living and a vegetarian diet. No drama, no bravado - just resolve in motion.

Elderly man - Fauja Singh - with a long beard and dark turban smiling, outdoors near a track field. Background shows trees and houses, soft sunset lighting.

While the world sprinted around him in search of the next thing, Singh – who is still with us at 114 - kept his pace and kept his faith. He didn’t just defy age - he ignored it. And in doing so, he reminds us that time is less an enemy to be conquered than a companion to be outwalked, one calm mile at a time.

Henry Allingham (1896 – 2009)

Henry Allingham lived to be 113, which is remarkable enough - but what makes him truly unforgettable is how he carried those years. Born in 1896, he lived through both World Wars, the sinking of the Titanic, the moon landing, and the invention of sliced bread - literally. A founding member of the Royal Air Force and one of the last surviving veterans of World War I, Allingham wasn’t just a man from another time; he was a walking archive of it.

Elderly man - Henry Allingham - smiling with a certificate showing military service details, birth and death dates, and text "The last founding member of the Royal Air Force."

When asked about the secret to his longevity, he famously answered: "Cigarettes, whisky, and wild women." Which may not hold up in a medical journal, but certainly qualifies as staying defiantly oneself.

But beneath the cheeky quotes was someone deeply committed to remembrance. In his later years, Allingham didn’t retreat into private comfort - he leaned in. He spent his 100’s traveling, speaking, and bearing witness for those who no longer could. He wore his medals not as decorations, but as responsibilities. There was something dignified yet unsentimental in the way he spoke about war and peace, as if to say: this happened, and it mattered, and I’m still here to make sure you understand that.

Elderly man - Henry Allingham - saluting, wearing a suit, striped tie, and several medals. Background blurred. Solemn expression.

Henry Allingham didn’t just endure time - he honored it, and in doing so, made his century count for more than just numbers.

George Burns (1896 – 1996)

George Burns made it to 100 with a cigar in one hand and a punchline in the other, which is more or less how he lived every year of his life.

Elderly man - comedian George Burns - with glasses in plaid jacket holds cigar, raising hand with a playful expression against a gray background.

Born in 1896, he started in vaudeville, graduated to radio, then television, and eventually film - playing God, no less, in his later years, with the same dry charm he used to dismantle hecklers back in the 1920s. He didn’t just age into comedy; he dragged comedy along with him, evolving without ever losing that sly, arched-eyebrow delivery that made it all look effortless. Burns didn’t just outlast his peers - he made a habit of burying them with style, then cracking a joke at the funeral.

What made Burns so enduring wasn’t just the longevity or the accolades (though he won an Oscar at 80 and was still headlining Vegas in his 90’s). It was the unshakable sense of self. He never rebranded or reimagined - he refined.

Elderly man - comedian George Burns - in a tuxedo holds a lit cigar, standing at a microphone on a dark stage. Smoky atmosphere, calm demeanor.

While the world swirled around him in reinvention and reinvention’s younger cousin, desperation, George Burns stayed exactly who he was: a little irreverent, a little sentimental, and always in on the joke. When he turned 100, it didn’t feel like a milestone - it felt like the final beat in a perfectly timed routine.

Irving Berlin (1888 – 1989)

Irving Berlin didn’t just live to 101 - he scored most of the 20th century along the way. Born in 1888 in Imperial Russia and arriving in the U.S. as a penniless immigrant, he wrote more than 1,500 songs, including “White Christmas,” “God Bless America,” and “There’s No Business Like Show Business”.

Man in a suit - Irving Berlin - sits in front of a piano, with sheet music behind him. He appears poised and relaxed in a monochromatic setting.

His melodies are so deeply embedded in American culture that they feel almost like public domain, like oxygen, or like awkward family holidays. Yet Berlin never read music and played only in F-sharp, the black keys. He succeeded by sheer force of will, instinct, and an uncanny ability to write songs that people didn’t just want to hum - they wanted to live inside.

What makes him truly worthy of this list, though, isn’t just his prodigious output or his improbable rise. It’s that even into his centenarian years, Berlin never stopped being Berlin.

Elderly man in suit - Irving Berlin - plays piano in a dimly lit room, glancing at the camera. Books and a framed picture are seen in the background.

He remained fiercely private, unassuming, and somewhat allergic to praise. He turned down presidential medals and refused to attend tribute concerts in his honor. He didn’t care for celebrity; he cared for the work. And when the applause faded, he kept playing - quietly, defiantly, on his beloved black keys. In a century that was loud, fast, and eager to reinvent itself, Irving Berlin stood still and let the world dance to his tune.

Shigeaki Hinohara (1911 - 2017)

Shigeaki Hinohara lived to the age of 105, and if that alone doesn’t impress you, consider this: he spent most of that time working.

Elderly person wearing glasses and a white coat - Shigeaki Hinohara - with a stethoscope, smiling warmly. Indoors with wooden background, calm and professional mood.

As one of Japan’s most beloved physicians and a pioneer of preventive medicine, he wrote more than 150 books (some of them after turning 100), saw patients well into his centenarian years, and advocated tirelessly for a lifestyle of purpose, moderation, and fun. He was known to skip lunch, take the stairs, and insist that people shouldn’t retire just because a calendar told them to. In a culture that reveres longevity but often equates age with retreat, Hinohara cheerfully subverted the narrative - by refusing to slow down.

What made Hinohara truly remarkable was not just how long he lived, but how completely he inhabited his philosophy. He believed that life should be driven by curiosity, not calories, by engagement, not age. He didn’t just dish out wellness advice - he embodied it, always immaculately dressed, sharp-witted, and quietly radical in his refusal to become ornamental.

Elderly man in a brown suit - Shigeaki Hinohara - sits on a stone bench with arms raised, smiling in a grassy park. Plaque visible on the bench.

Even as the world around him grew faster, flashier, more disposable, Hinohara stayed grounded in old-school service and a kind of optimistic realism that’s now in short supply. He lived the life of a man who had somewhere to be and something to say, right up to the very end. And he never once apologized for being himself.

Ernst Mayr (1904 – 2004)

Ernst Mayr lived to be 100 and managed to spend nearly all of it arguing - politely, rigorously, and with great precision - about the nature of life itself. Born in 1904 in what was then the German Empire, Mayr became one of the most influential evolutionary biologists of the 20th century, helping to unify Darwinian theory with modern genetics in what became known as the “modern synthesis.”

Black-and-white image of an elderly man in a suit, smiling against a dark background. Text: "NCERT Biology, Ernst Mayr, Darwin of the 20th century."

He wrote or co-authored more than 20 books, described dozens of new species, and spent his final years calmly but insistently reminding the scientific community that speciation was, in fact, his specialty. To say he had staying power is an understatement; the man didn’t just contribute to biology - he helped rewrite its central grammar, and then stuck around to make sure no one messed it up. Darwin certainly would’ve been nodding in approval

What makes Mayr a qualified member of this centenarian pantheon isn’t just the duration of his life, but the clarity of his voice within it. Even into his late 90s, he was publishing papers, giving interviews, and confidently dismantling sloppy evolutionary thinking wherever he found it.

Man - Ernst Mayr - smiling beside a portrait of himself in academic robes. Black-and-white setting with framed document visible in background.

He was precise without being precious, critical without being cruel, and never once dulled his intellectual edge for the sake of being agreeable. If anything, he seemed to sharpen with age, like a scalpel left in a glass case: elegant, useful, and just a bit intimidating. Mayr didn’t merely witness a century of science - he shaped it, defended it, and remained unmistakably himself every step of the way.

Ernest Badalian (1925 - )

Born in Armenia during the early days of the Soviet experiment, Ernie Badalian came into a world already complicated, already tilting on its axis.

Elderly man - Ernie Badalian - smiling warmly, wearing a blue patterned shirt, and waving. Seated on a patterned chair in a well-lit room.

His father was a landowner – code word at the time, for “enemy of the people” - and the family’s property was seized by Soviet authorities in a sweeping purge of the bourgeoisie. To avoid a one-way ticket to the gulag, the family fled. They moved west through Europe’s unraveling seams, only to find themselves caught in the gears of World War II. Ernie was eventually interned in a German POW camp, where he remained until American forces liberated it in 1945. Freedom came not with fanfare, but with the quiet, improbable survival of someone who simply refused to be broken.

From there, Ernie’s story veers not into comfort, but resilience reimagined. He made it to America. He reunited with family - every last one of them, which in itself feels almost mythic – in Detroit, Michigan and became an American citizen. In 1952, he landed in Bell, California, bought a poultry ranch, and then - in one of those only-in-America plot twists - pivoted from chickens to check-ins by opening a motel across the street from a brand-new curiosity called Disneyland. That little venture became a family business, a generational stake in the American dream, and at 100, Ernie still lives on-site, quietly keeping tabs on tourists and trendlines like a man who knows full well the cost of standing still.

What makes Ernie a charter member of this list isn’t just that he reached the far end of the calendar with his humor and will intact - it’s that he did so by shaping every chapter himself. His life is a testament to persistence without self-pity, adaptation without loss of identity, and the kind of quiet authority that doesn’t need reminding who’s in charge. That he was the inspiration for this post is no coincidence. He’s not just a part of the list - he’s the reason it exists.

Older man - Ernie Badalian - sits with "100" birthday balloon, smiling, in a restaurant. Another man - Chris Zappia - stands behind him, also smiling. Warm, lively atmosphere.

Maybe the best thing about the people on this list - besides the obvious fact that they absolutely refuse to die on anyone else's schedule - is that they never mistook longevity for the goal. They weren’t chasing years like some kind of loyalty program. They were just busy living. Fully. Messily. With style, principle, or just stubbornness, but always on their own terms. Making it to 100 is impressive. Making it to 100 without becoming a museum exhibit or a punchline? That’s something else entirely.

It’s tempting to reduce centenarians to life hacks and headlines. “Secrets to a Long Life Revealed!” followed by kale, crossword puzzles, and something vaguely Scandinavian. But the truth is more slippery and less clickable. These people didn’t age gracefully - they aged honestly. There’s a difference. They didn’t live long because they tried to. They lived long because they kept moving, kept showing up, kept refusing to trade curiosity for comfort. Some ran marathons. Some played God. Some just kept opening their motel door every morning, because, to them, the world was still worth checking in on.

There’s no single through-line in this list - no magic pill, no secret sauce, no TED Talk formula. Just people who stayed sharp, stayed weird, or stayed kind long enough to watch the rest of us try to catch up. They kept going. Not because it was easy, but because it never occurred to them to stop. And when the rest of the world started putting up walls - between generations, between truths, between each other - they walked through them like smoke. And maybe that’s the real lesson here. Not how to live forever, but how to live so well, so completely, that the calendar just becomes background noise. The trick, it seems, isn’t to avoid the end. It’s to make the middle matter so much that the end doesn’t get the last word.

So, raise a glass (neat, no ice!) to the centenarians - the defiant, the dignified, the quietly miraculous. Not because they beat the clock, but because they never let it run the show. They remind us, in their beautifully stubborn way, that time is less a thief than a mirror. It reflects what you put into it. And if you’re lucky - and just a little bit ungovernable - it reflects you right back, 100 years later, with a raised eyebrow and a drink in hand.

In the ever-evolving world of crypto, the next major disruptor may not come from Silicon Valley or a Fortune 500 boardroom but from the digital grassroots of a movement determined to redefine finance. World Liberty Financial (WLFI), an ambitious decentralized finance (DeFi) project, is staking its claim as the next game changer in blockchain-based financial ecosystems.

With a bold vision of democratizing finance and a token model unlike any other, WLFI may very well be on the verge of something historic.

The Genesis of WLFI;A Mission Beyond Profit.

At its core, World Liberty Financial seeks to upend the long-standing dominance of centralized institutions. Its mission is clear; to empower individuals with direct access to decentralized financial services**, eliminating the need for banks, intermediaries, and regulatory chokeholds.

Leveraging blockchain technology, WLFI aims to provide borderless, transparent, and censorship-resistant alternatives to traditional finance, a concept that resonates strongly in an era of growing distrust toward centralized entities.

The Token Sale;A Rocky Start Turned Power Move.

WLFI’s token sale launched quietly in October 2024, pricing tokens at just \$0.015 with a goal of raising \$1.5 billion. Initial investor sentiment, however, was tepid—only 4% of the 20 billion token supply sold in the early weeks. But as political tides shifted in the U.S. following the 2024 Presidential Election and a more pro-crypto administration came to power, the wind began to change.

A major turning point came with a \$30 million investment from blockchain heavyweight Justin Sun, a move that revitalized confidence and placed WLFI squarely on the radar of institutional and retail investors alike.

By March 2025, WLFI had raised approximately \$590 million, making it one of the largest DeFi token sales in history. While it didn’t reach its lofty initial goal, it proved there was strong market appetite for a platform with real utility and an ambitious roadmap.

Tokenomics: A Bold, Unorthodox Approach.

What truly sets WLFI apart is not just its vision but its controversial and deliberate design choices:

●Non-Transferable Tokens-WLFI tokens currently cannot be traded, sold, or transferred. This is an intentional mechanism to curb speculation and shift focus to governance and utility. That said, community discussions are surfacing around a clause in the smart contract that could eventually allow limited transfers—pending a vote by token holders.

●No Economic Rights—Yet; WLFI tokens carry no economic rights, meaning holders don’t receive profits or dividends by default. However, a future protocol vote may change that, paving the way for dividends in stablecoins or airdrops, making it potentially the first DeFi token with structured financial payouts.

●Equal Governance Power- Every token holder has a seat at the table. Governance proposals and protocol upgrades are voted on democratically, creating a truly decentralized ecosystem where users—not venture capitalists or early insiders—steer the ship.

Tech Stack: Launching with Aave V3 Integration

WLFI’s integration with Aave V3 is a strategic move that immediately places it within a battle-tested DeFi framework. This partnership allows WLFI to:

• Create a decentralized lending and borrowing market
• Share protocol revenues with the Aave DAO
• Leverage Aave’s liquidity infrastructure while maintaining community autonomy

This integration puts WLFI in a unique position to blend the best of existing DeFi innovation with its own ideological twist on community-led finance.

The Bigger Picture: A Rare Window of Opportunity? As the world watches the regulatory and political landscape shift, particularly with a pro-crypto U.S. President in office, WLFI’s timing feels almost poetic. The conditions echo the early days of Bitcoin—uncertain, volatile, and full of opportunity.

But unlike Bitcoin, WLFI offers governance participation, future revenue sharing, and a tangible roadmap. It’s not just a store of value—it’s a financial instrument for the digital age.

Final Thoughts: Hype or Historic? WLFI is not for the impatient or the purely profit-driven investor. It’s a long-game play for those who believe in the foundational principles of decentralization, community governance, and financial sovereignty.

If it delivers on its promises—and if governance votes align to unlock its full potential—World Liberty Financial could be remembered as the moment DeFi stopped being just a tech experiment and started becoming a real financial revolution.

Past week summary

From a Self Custody for Organizations perspective, after analyzing the existing protocols (Cerberus, 10xSecurityBTCguide and Glacier) and reading a bunch of relates articles and guides, have wrapped to the conclusion that this format it is good to have as reference. However, something else is needed. For example, a summary or a map of the whole process to provide an overview, plus a way to deliver all the information and the multy-process in a more enjoyable way. Not a job for this hackathon, but with the right collaborations I assume it's possible to: - build something that might introduce a bit more quests and gamification - provide a learning environment (with testnet funds) could also be crucial on educating those unfamiliar with bitcoin onchain dynamics.

Have been learning more and playing around practicing best accessibility practices and how it could be applied to a desktop software like Bitcoin Safe. Thanks to @johnjherzog for providing a screen recording of his first experience and @jasonbohio for suggesting the tools to be used. (in this case tested/testing on Windows with the Accessibility Insights app). Some insight shared have been also applied to the website, running a full accessibility check (under WCAG 2.2 ADA, and Section 508 standards) with 4 different plugins and two online tools. I recognize that not all of them works and analyze the same parameters, indeed they complement each other providing a more accurate review.

For Bitcoin Safe interface improvements, many suggestions have been shared with @andreasgriffin , including: - a new iconset, including a micro-set to display the number of confirmed blocs for each transaction - a redesigned History/Dashboard - small refinements like adding missing columns on the tables - allow the user to select which columns to be displayed - sorting of unconfirmed transactions - Defining a new style for design elements like mempool blocks and quick receive boxes You can find below some screenshots with my proposals that hopefully will be included in the next release.

Last achievement this week was to prepare the website https://Safe.BTC.pub, the container where all the outcomes f this experiment will be published. You can have a look, just consider it still WIP. Branding for the project has also been finalized and available in this penpot file https://design.penpot.app/#/workspace?team-id=cec80257-5021-8137-8005-eab60c043dd6&project-id=cec80257-5021-8137-8005-eab60c043dd8&file-id=95aea877-d515-80ac-8006-23a251886db3&page-id=132f519a-39f4-80db-8006-2a41c364a545

What's for next week

After spending most of the time learning and reading material, this coming week will be focused on deliverables. The goal as planned will be to provide: - Finalized Safe₿its brand and improve overall desktop app experience, including categorization of transactions and addresses - An accessibility report or guide for Bitcoin Safe and support to implement best practices - A first draft of the Self-Custody for Organizations guide/framework/protocol, ideally delivered through the website http://Safe.BTC.pub in written format, but also as FlowChart to help have an overview of the whole resources needed and the process itself. This will clearly define preparations and tools/hardwares needed to successfully complete the process.

Nukleáris politika – 2025. május 12. | Szerző: David Dalton

Lengyelország és Franciaország nukleáris szerződést ír alá, Macron új építési szerződéseket céloz

Lengyelország és Franciaország olyan szerződést kötött, amely együttműködést irányoz elő a polgári nukleáris energia szektorban, miközben Párizs reménykedik abban, hogy Varsótól jövedelmező új atomerőmű-építési szerződéseket nyer el.

A szerződés közös tevékenységeket tartalmaz, amelyek célja a nukleáris energia előnyeinek kihasználása az európai ipar dekarbonizációja érdekében.

A két ország együtt kíván működni a nukleáris fűtőanyag-ellátás biztonságának megerősítésében is.

Európa szeretné kizárni Oroszországot a nukleáris fűtőanyag-piacáról, de az Euratom Ellátási Ügynökség (ESA) legfrissebb éves jelentése szerint 2023-ban nőtt az Oroszországból származó természetes urán szállítása, mivel az uniós szolgáltatók készleteket halmoztak fel az orosz tervezésű VVER atomerőművekhez.

Az ESA, amely az európai nukleáris anyagok rendszeres és méltányos ellátásáért felelős, közölte, hogy az uniós szolgáltatók tovább diverzifikálják nukleáris fűtőanyag-beszerzéseiket, különösen a VVER reaktorokhoz, hogy csökkentsék a „egy forrásból származó vagy magas kockázatú” ellátásoktól való függést.

„Majdnem minden olyan ország, amely orosz tervezésű reaktorokat üzemeltet, halad az alternatív fűtőanyagok engedélyeztetésében, és ígéretes fejlemények várhatók a közeljövőben” – közölte az ESA.

Az EU-ban jelenleg 19 VVER reaktor működik, köztük négy 1000 MW-os Bulgáriában és Csehországban, valamint tizenöt 440 MW-os Csehországban, Finnországban, Magyarországon és Szlovákiában.

A jelentések szerint a francia–lengyel nukleáris szerződés különösen fontos a francia állami EDF energetikai vállalat számára, amely még mindig reménykedik abban, hogy részt vehet Lengyelország ambiciózus atomerőmű-építési programjában, annak ellenére, hogy az első új építésű projekt tenderét az amerikai Westinghouse nyerte el Pomeránia északi tartományában.

Franciaország ambiciózus reaktorépítési tervei

Franciaország maga is nagyszabású nukleáris fejlesztési terveket dédelget: a kormány nemrégiben felkérte az EDF-et, hogy gyorsítsa fel a hat új generációs EPR2 atomerőmű megépítésének előkészítését.

Az EDF kezdetben három EPR2 párost tervez: az elsőt Penlyben, majd egyet-egyet a Gravelines-i atomerőmű telephelyén (Calais közelében), illetve vagy Bugey-ben (Lyon keleti részén), vagy Tricastinban (Lyon és Avignon közelében).

A nukleáris szerződés aláírását megelőzte egy másik szerződés is, amely a két szövetséges közötti kapcsolatok elmélyítését, valamint kölcsönös biztonsági garanciákat is tartalmaz háború esetére.

Donald Tusk lengyel miniszterelnök, aki Emmanuel Macron francia elnökkel együtt írta alá a biztonsági dokumentumot, „áttörésnek” nevezte a szerződést, kiemelve, hogy csak Németországnak van hasonló biztonsági paktuma Franciaországgal, és ez Lengyelországot „egyenrangú partnerként” helyezi nyugati szövetségesei közé.

Macron eközben úgy fogalmazott, hogy a szerződés „új korszakot nyit” nemcsak Lengyelország és Franciaország, hanem egész Európa számára. „Bresttől Krakkóig Európa együtt áll ki” – mondta a francia elnök.

Nukleáris politika – 2025. május 12. | Szerző: David Dalton

Trump csapata a nukleáris erőművek építésének felgyorsítását tervezi

A Trump-adminisztráció tisztviselői végrehajtási rendeleteket készítenek elő, amelyek célja az atomerőművek jóváhagyásának és építésének felgyorsítása az Egyesült Államokban – számolt be róla a sajtó.

Az erőfeszítés, amelyet egy kormányzati tisztviselő és más, az egyeztetéseket ismerő személyek írtak le, még folyamatban van. Az elnök még nem hagyta jóvá a tervezetet – mondta az egyik forrás, aki névtelenséget kért, mivel hivatalos bejelentés még nem történt. Az amerikai Axios hírportál és a New York Times is beszámolt az egyeztetésekről.

Trump és kormányának tisztviselői többször hangsúlyozták a bőséges, olcsó villamos energia fontosságát az energiaigényes mesterséges intelligencia ipar számára, amely segítheti az Egyesült Államokat abban, hogy megnyerje a feltörekvő technológia globális versenyét.

„Meg kell nyernünk az MI-versenyt, és ebben vezetnünk kell – ehhez pedig sokkal több energiára lesz szükség” – mondta Chris Wright energiaügyi miniszter múlt hónapban egy kabinetülésen Trump társaságában.

Az elnök már hivatalosan is energia-vészhelyzetet hirdetett, nemzeti és gazdasági biztonsági szempontokra hivatkozva annak érdekében, hogy gyorsítsa az erőművek, csővezetékek és elektromos távvezetékek építését az országban.

A szóban forgó tervezetek célokat tűznének ki az atomerőművek gyors országos építésére, illetve az amerikai nukleáris ipar vezető szerepének visszaállítására.

Legalább az egyik intézkedés a Nukleáris Szabályozási Bizottságnál (NRC) vezetne be változtatásokat, amelyek gyorsíthatják az erőműtervek, köztük az új kis moduláris reaktorok (SMR-ek) engedélyezését.

Wright nemrégiben úgy nyilatkozott, hogy az új reaktorblokkok építésének legnagyobb akadálya az Egyesült Államokban a szabályozás volt.

Az elképzelés részeként akár katonai létesítményekre is telepíthetnek majd atomerőműveket, valószínűleg mikroreaktorok vagy SMR-ek formájában.

Jelenleg az Egyesült Államokban nincs kereskedelmi atomerőmű építés alatt. Az utolsó két üzembe helyezett blokk a georgiai Vogtle-3 és Vogtle-4 volt, 2023-ban és 2024-ben.

Előrehaladott tervek vannak a michigani Palisades atomerőmű újraindítására. Ha megvalósul, ez lenne az első olyan, korábban leállított amerikai atomerőmű, amely ismét működésbe lép.

Új építések – 2025. május 12. | Szerző: David Dalton

Vietnam és Oroszország tárgyalásokat kezd atomerőmű-építésről

Vietnam és Oroszország megállapodott abban, hogy tárgyalásokat folytatnak és szerződéseket írnak alá kereskedelmi atomerőművek építéséről Vietnamban – közölték a két ország egy közös nyilatkozatban.

„Az erőművek fejlesztése korszerű technológiával szigorúan megfelel majd a nukleáris és sugárbiztonsági előírásoknak, és a társadalmi-gazdasági fejlődést szolgálja” – áll a közleményben, amely a vietnami vezető, To Lam moszkvai látogatása után jelent meg.

Az orosz állami atomenergetikai vállalat, a Roszatom szerint a látogatás „az együttműködés új szakaszát” jelenti – egy nagy atomerőmű építését Délkelet-Ázsiában.

A Roszatom felajánlotta Vietnámnak a VVER-1200 nyomottvizes reaktor technológiáját, amelyből kettő már működik az oroszországi Novovoronyezs 2 atomerőműben, és kettő Fehéroroszországban.

A Roszatom közölte, hogy további tárgyalásokra van szükség a vietnami atomerőmű műszaki és pénzügyi feltételeinek tisztázásához, de hozzátette: „ezek a tárgyalások ma [május 10-én] megkezdődtek”.

A Roszatom arról is beszámolt, hogy Alekszej Lihacsov vezérigazgató és Nguyen Manh Hung vietnami tudományos és technológiai miniszter aláírt egy nukleáris energia ütemtervet.

Az ütemterv tartalmazza egy nukleáris tudományos és technológiai központ lehetséges megépítését, fűtőanyag-szállítást a dél-vietnami Dalat kutatóreaktorhoz, Vietnam részvételét Oroszország IV. generációs MBIR többcélú gyorsneutronos kutatóreaktor projektjében, valamint vietnami szakemberek képzését.

Vietnamnak jelenleg egy kutatóreaktora van Dalatban, és egy másik is tervben van. A Roszatom nem közölte, melyikre gondolt.

A múlt hónapban Vietnam elfogadta a nemzeti energiastratégia módosított változatát, amely 2030-ig 136 milliárd dollárt irányoz elő az energiaellátás hosszú távú biztonságának megerősítésére, és először szerepel benne az atomenergia.

Vietnam azt szeretné, ha első atomerőművei 2030 és 2035 között lépnének üzembe. A beépített nukleáris kapacitás várhatóan 4–6,4 GW lesz, ami körülbelül 4–6 nagy atomerőműnek felel meg.

A kormány szerint további 8 GW nukleáris kapacitás kerül majd a mixbe az évszázad közepéig.

Vietnam már 2009-ben is tervezett két atomerőművet, de a Nemzetgyűlés 2016-ban költségvetési okokból elutasította a javaslatot.

Új építések – 2025. május 12. | Szerző: David Dalton

Az NRC engedélyt adott az „energia-sziget” munkálatokra a TerraPower wyomingi atomerőművénél

Az Egyesült Államok Nukleáris Szabályozási Bizottsága (NRC) mentességet adott a TerraPower Natrium demonstrációs atomerőművének wyomingi Kemmererben, lehetővé téve a vállalat számára bizonyos „energia-sziget” tevékenységek folytatását, miközben a hatóságok tovább vizsgálják az építési engedély iránti kérelmet.

Az energia-sziget a tervezett Natrium atomerőműben a felesleges hő tárolására szolgál majd, hogy csúcsterhelés idején növelje az áramtermelést.

Az NRC szerint az energia-szigethez kapcsolódó bizonyos tevékenységek engedélyezése nem jelent indokolatlan kockázatot a közegészségre és biztonságra, és „különleges körülmények” állnak fenn.

A mentesség a létesítmények, rendszerek és komponensek korlátozott részére vonatkozik, lehetővé téve például cölöpverést, alapozást, vagy bizonyos szerkezetek, rendszerek és komponensek összeszerelését, gyártását, tesztelését korlátozott munkavégzési engedély nélkül.

Az NRC szerint a mentesség nem befolyásolja a reaktor építési engedélyéről szóló végső döntést. „Az NRC folytatja az építési engedély iránti kérelem vizsgálatát az egész projektre vonatkozóan” – áll a közleményben.

A Bill Gates által alapított TerraPower üdvözölte a döntést, hozzátéve, hogy a nukleáris reaktor és az energiatermelő létesítmények szétválasztása rövidebb építési időt és alacsonyabb anyagköltségeket tesz lehetővé.

Februárban az amerikai energiaügyi minisztérium befejezte a projekt előzetes tevékenységeire vonatkozó végső környezeti értékelést.

A TerraPower, amelyet Gates 2008-ban alapított, 2024 júniusában kezdte meg első kereskedelmi Natrium atomerőművének építését Kemmererben, ahol egy széntüzelésű erőmű zár be.

A Natrium demonstrációs projekt három különálló részből áll: egy nátrium teszt- és feltöltő létesítményből, az energiatermelő vagy energia-szigetből, valamint a nukleáris szigetből magával a reaktorral.

A kezdeti építkezés a teszt- és feltöltő létesítményre összpontosít, amely egy különálló, nem nukleáris épület, és a reaktor nátrium hűtőrendszerének tesztelésére szolgál. Itt történik a folyékony nátrium fogadása, mintavételezése, feldolgozása és tárolása, mielőtt a Natrium reaktorhoz kerülne.

A lengyel atomerőmű-projekt biztosítási szerződéseket kötött

A lengyel Polskie Elektrownie Jądrowe (PEJ) atomerőmű-projekt vállalat négy biztosítási bróker céggel kötött keretmegállapodást. Az Aon Polska, GrECo Polska, Marsh és Smartt Re cégek támogatják a PEJ-t Lengyelország első kereskedelmi atomerőművének biztosítási szerződéseinek megkötésében, valamint a napi működéshez szükséges biztosítások beszerzésében. A PEJ minden brókerrel keretmegállapodást írt alá, amelyek alapján egyes biztosítási feladatokra kiválasztja a megfelelő brókert.

Az Aecon cég nyerte az ontariói SMR építési szerződését

A kanadai Aecon Kiewit Nuclear Partners nyerte el az Ontario Power Generation (OPG) által Darlingtonban építendő első kis moduláris reaktor (SMR) kivitelezési szerződését. A szerződés értéke 1,3 milliárd kanadai dollár (934 millió USD, 841 millió euró), amely projektmenedzsmentet, kivitelezési tervezést és végrehajtást foglal magában, a befejezést és a kereskedelmi üzemet 2030-ra tervezik. Ontario tartomány és az OPG múlt héten hagyta jóvá a négy SMR első darabjának 20,9 milliárd CAD értékű tervét Darlingtonban.

26 000 dolgozó a Hinkley Point C projekten a csúcskivitelezés idején

Az Egyesült Királyságban mintegy 26 000 dolgozó vesz részt a Hinkley Point C atomerőmű építésében, amely jelenleg csúcskivitelezési szakaszban van – derül ki az EDF Energy jelentéséből. Közvetlenül a projekten 18 000-en dolgoznak, ebből 12 000-en a helyszínen, további 3 000 fővel bővülhet a létszám a következő 12 hónapban. További 8 000-en a beszállítói láncban dolgoznak. A jelentés szerint a Hinkley Point C építése fontos katalizátor a gazdasági növekedésben, jelenleg 13,3 milliárd fonttal (15,7 milliárd euró, 17,5 milliárd dollár) járul hozzá a gazdasághoz. Ebből 5 milliárd fontot már a délnyugati régió beszállítóinál költöttek el – jóval meghaladva az 1,5 milliárd fontos célt. A Hinkley Point C két francia EPR reaktort kap.

Information ohne Reflexion ist geistiger Flugsand. \ Ernst Reinhardt

Der lateinische Ausdruck «Quo vadis» als Frage nach einer Entwicklung oder Ausrichtung hat biblische Wurzeln. Er wird aber auch in unserer Alltagssprache verwendet, laut Duden meist als Ausdruck von Besorgnis oder Skepsis im Sinne von: «Wohin wird das führen?»

Der Sinn und Zweck von so mancher politischen Entscheidung erschließt sich heutzutage nicht mehr so leicht, und viele Trends können uns Sorge bereiten. Das sind einerseits sehr konkrete Themen wie die zunehmende Militarisierung und die geschichtsvergessene Kriegstreiberei in Europa, deren Feindbildpflege aktuell beim Gedenken an das Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs beschämende Formen annimmt.

Auch das hohe Gut der Schweizer Neutralität scheint immer mehr in Gefahr. Die schleichende Bewegung der Eidgenossenschaft in Richtung NATO und damit weg von einer Vermittlerposition erhält auch durch den neuen Verteidigungsminister Anschub. Martin Pfister möchte eine stärkere Einbindung in die europäische Verteidigungsarchitektur, verwechselt bei der Argumentation jedoch Ursache und Wirkung.

Das Thema Gesundheit ist als Zugpferd für Geschäfte und Kontrolle offenbar schon zuverlässig etabliert. Die hauptsächlich privat finanzierte Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO) ist dabei durch ein Netzwerk von sogenannten «Collaborating Centres» sogar so weit in nationale Einrichtungen eingedrungen, dass man sich fragen kann, ob diese nicht von Genf aus gesteuert werden.

Das Schweizer Bundesamt für Gesundheit (BAG) übernimmt in dieser Funktion ebenso von der WHO definierte Aufgaben und Pflichten wie das deutsche Robert Koch-Institut (RKI). Gegen die Covid-«Impfung» für Schwangere, die das BAG empfiehlt, obwohl es fehlende wissenschaftliche Belege für deren Schutzwirkung einräumt, formiert sich im Tessin gerade Widerstand.

Unter dem Stichwort «Gesundheitssicherheit» werden uns die Bestrebungen verkauft, essenzielle Dienste mit einer biometrischen digitalen ID zu verknüpfen. Das dient dem Profit mit unseren Daten und führt im Ergebnis zum Verlust unserer demokratischen Freiheiten. Die deutsche elektronische Patientenakte (ePA) ist ein Element mit solchem Potenzial. Die Schweizer Bürger haben gerade ein Referendum gegen das revidierte E-ID-Gesetz erzwungen. In Thailand ist seit Anfang Mai für die Einreise eine «Digital Arrival Card» notwendig, die mit ihrer Gesundheitserklärung einen Impfpass «durch die Hintertür» befürchten lässt.

Der massive Blackout auf der iberischen Halbinsel hat vermehrt Fragen dazu aufgeworfen, wohin uns Klimawandel-Hysterie und «grüne» Energiepolitik führen werden. Meine Kollegin Wiltrud Schwetje ist dem nachgegangen und hat in mehreren Beiträgen darüber berichtet. Wenig überraschend führen interessante Spuren mal wieder zu internationalen Großbanken, Globalisten und zur EU-Kommission.

Zunehmend bedenklich ist aber ganz allgemein auch die manifestierte Spaltung unserer Gesellschaften. Angesichts der tiefen und sorgsam gepflegten Gräben fällt es inzwischen schwer, eine zukunftsfähige Perspektive zu erkennen. Umso begrüßenswerter sind Initiativen wie die Kölner Veranstaltungsreihe «Neue Visionen für die Zukunft». Diese möchte die Diskussionskultur reanimieren und dazu beitragen, dass Menschen wieder ohne Angst und ergebnisoffen über kontroverse Themen der Zeit sprechen.

Quo vadis – Wohin gehen wir also? Die Suche nach Orientierung in diesem vermeintlichen Chaos führt auch zur Reflexion über den eigenen Lebensweg. Das ist positiv insofern, als wir daraus Kraft schöpfen können. Ob derweil der neue Papst, dessen «Vorgänger» Petrus unsere Ausgangsfrage durch die christliche Legende zugeschrieben wird, dabei eine Rolle spielt, muss jede/r selbst wissen. Mir persönlich ist allein schon ein Führungsanspruch wie der des Petrusprimats der römisch-katholischen Kirche eher suspekt.

Marty's Bent

Last week we covered the bombshell developments in the Samourai Wallet case. For those who didn't read that, last Monday the world was made aware of the fact that the SDNY was explicitly told by FinCEN that the federal regulator did not believe that Samourai Wallet was a money services business six months before arresting the co-founders of Samourai Wallet for conspiracy to launder money and illegally operating a money services business. This was an obvious overstep by the SDNY that many believed would be quickly alleviated, especially considering the fact that the Trump administration via the Department of Justice has made it clear that they do not intend to rule via prosecution.

It seems that this is not the case as the SDNY responded to a letter sent from the defense to dismiss the case by stating that they fully plan to move forward. Stating that they only sought the recommendations of FinCEN employees and did not believe that those employees' comments were indicative of FinCEN's overall views on this particular case. It's a pretty egregious abuse of power by the SDNY. I'm not sure if the particular lawyers and judges within the Southern District of New York are very passionate about preventing the use of self-custody bitcoin and products that enable bitcoiners to transact privately, or if they're simply participating in a broader meta war with the Trump administration - who has made it clear to federal judges across the country that last Fall's election will have consequences, mainly that the Executive Branch will try to effectuate the policies that President Trump campaigned on by any legal means necessary - and Samouari Wallet is simply in the middle of that meta war.

However, one thing is pretty clear to me, this is an egregious overstep of power. The interpretation of that law, as has been laid out and confirmed by FinCEN over the last decade, is pretty clear; you cannot be a money services business if you do not control the funds that people are sending to each other, which is definitely the case with Samourai Wallet. People downloaded Samourai Wallet, spun up their own private-public key pairs and initiated transactions themselves. Samourai never custodied funds or initiated transactions on behalf of their users. This is very cut and dry. Straight to the point. It should be something that anyone with more than two brain cells is able to discern pretty quickly.

It is imperative that anybody in the industry who cares about being able to hold bitcoin in self-custody, to mine bitcoin, and to send bitcoin in a peer-to-peer fashion makes some noise around this case. None of the current administration's attempts to foster innovation around bitcoin in the United States will matter if the wrong precedent is set in this case. If the SDNY is successful in prosecuting Samourai Wallet, it will mean that anybody holding Bitcoin in self-custody, running a bitcoin fold node or mining bitcoin will have to KYC all of their users and counterparts lest they be labeled a money services business that is breaking laws stemming from the Bank Secrecy Act. This will effectively make building a self-custody bitcoin wallet, running a node, or mining bitcoin in tillegal in the United States. The ability to comply with the rules that would be unleashed if this Samourai case goes the wrong way, are such that it will effectively destroy the industry overnight.

It is yet to be seen whether or not the Department of Justice will step in to publicly flog the SDNY and force them to stop pursuing this case. This is the only likely way that the case will go away at this point, so it is very important that bitcoiners who care about being able to self-custody bitcoin, mine bitcoin, or send bitcoin in a peer-to-peer fashion in the United States make it clear to the current administration and any local politicians that this is an issue that you care deeply about. If we are too complacent, there is a chance that the SDNY could completely annihilate the bitcoin industry in America despite of all of the positive momentum we're seeing from all angles at the moment.

Make some noise!

Bitcoin Adoption by Power Companies: The Next Frontier

In my recent conversation with Andrew Myers from Satoshi Energy, he shared their ambitious mission to "enable every electric power company to use bitcoin by block 1,050,000" – roughly three years from now. This strategic imperative isn't just about creating new Bitcoin users; it's about sovereignty. Andrew emphasized that getting Bitcoin into the hands of energy companies who value self-sovereignty creates a more balanced future economic landscape. The excitement was palpable as he described how several energy companies are already moving beyond simply selling power to Bitcoin miners and are beginning to invest in mining operations themselves.

"You have global commodity companies being like, 'Oh, this is another commodity – we want to invest in this, we want to own this,'" - Andrew Myers

Perhaps most fascinating was Andrew's revelation about major energy companies in Texas developing Bitcoin collateral products for power contracts – a practical application that could revolutionize how energy transactions are settled. As energy companies continue embracing Bitcoin for both operations and collateral, we're witnessing the early stages of a profound shift in how critical infrastructure interfaces with sound money. The implications for both sectors could be transformative.

I did not arrive with loud words, just quiet prayers and a heart full of purpose. Queen Marvel looked beyond the surface, she saw not where I stood but where I could go to_ to perform in global stages. She believed in me when I was still uncertain, still learning how to grow. She didn't offer gold, she offered faith, a silent kind of power that says," I see you", even when the world doesn't yet. And now, there is a community behind me, Eyes full of hope, hearts whispering, do not forget us. I carry their dreams like sacred cargo. I talk Bitcoin but I live poetry, now am schooling folks with metaphors and memes. Dropping bars on blocks and dreams, telling kings and queens, you got value, you got choice. So here is to Bitcoin, the rebel code that broke my chains, that gave me freedom and these golden poetic veins. This is not hype, it is truth in rhyme Now I spit not for fame But to light other flames, cos if it unlocked mine, then you can do the same. MaKiNi

Cryptocurrencies have become increasingly popular in recent years, and their impact on the world economy is a topic of much discussion. While there are many potential benefits to using cryptocurrencies, such as greater privacy and security, there are also several ways in which they may impact the global economy.

One potential impact of cryptocurrencies on the world economy is their ability to disrupt traditional financial systems. By enabling peer-to-peer transactions without the need for intermediaries such as banks or financial institutions, cryptocurrencies have the potential to lower transaction costs and increase efficiency. This could have a significant impact on industries such as remittances, where people send money across borders to their families.

However, the rise of cryptocurrencies has also brought concerns around their potential impact on monetary policy. Because cryptocurrencies are decentralized and not subject to government control, some fear that they could lead to increased volatility and instability in financial markets. Additionally, the use of cryptocurrencies could make it more difficult for central banks to control inflation and regulate the money supply.

Another potential impact of cryptocurrencies on the global economy is their ability to facilitate international trade. With the use of blockchain technology, cryptocurrencies could provide a secure and transparent means of conducting cross-border transactions. This could reduce the costs and time associated with traditional international payments, which could have a positive impact on global trade.

Finally, the growth of cryptocurrencies could also have an impact on wealth distribution. Because cryptocurrencies are accessible to anyone with an internet connection, they could provide new opportunities for people who have been excluded from traditional financial systems. However, there are also concerns that the concentration of wealth in the hands of early adopters and large cryptocurrency holders could exacerbate existing inequalities.

In conclusion, the impact of cryptocurrencies on the world economy is complex and multifaceted. While they have the potential to disrupt traditional financial systems and facilitate international trade, they also raise concerns around monetary policy and wealth distribution. As the use of cryptocurrencies continues to grow, it will be important to carefully monitor their impact on the global economy and take steps to address any potential risks.

For those who didn't read that, last Monday the world was made aware of the fact that the SDNY was explicitly told by FinCEN that the federal regulator did not believe that Samourai Wallet was a money services business six months before arresting the co-founders of Samourai Wallet for conspiracy to launder money and illegally operating a money services business. This was an obvious overstep by the SDNY that many believed would be quickly alleviated, especially considering the fact that the Trump administration via the Department of Justice has made it clear that they do not intend to rule via prosecution.

It seems that this is not the case as the SDNY responded to a letter sent from the defense to dismiss the case by stating that they fully plan to move forward. Stating that they only sought the recommendations of FinCEN employees and did not believe that those employees' comments were indicative of FinCEN's overall views on this particular case. It's a pretty egregious abuse of power by the SDNY. I'm not sure if the particular lawyers and judges within the Southern District of New York are very passionate about preventing the use of self-custody bitcoin and products that enable bitcoiners to transact privately, or if they're simply participating in a broader meta war with the Trump administration - who has made it clear to federal judges across the country that last Fall's election will have consequences, mainly that the Executive Branch will try to effectuate the policies that President Trump campaigned on by any legal means necessary - and Samouari Wallet is simply in the middle of that meta war.

However, one thing is pretty clear to me, this is an egregious overstep of power. The interpretation of that law, as has been laid out and confirmed by FinCEN over the last decade, is pretty clear; you cannot be a money services business if you do not control the funds that people are sending to each other, which is definitely the case with Samourai Wallet. People downloaded Samourai Wallet, spun up their own private-public key pairs and initiated transactions themselves. Samourai never custodied funds or initiated transactions on behalf of their users. This is very cut and dry. Straight to the point. It should be something that anyone with more than two brain cells is able to discern pretty quickly.

It is imperative that anybody in the industry who cares about being able to hold bitcoin in self-custody, to mine bitcoin, and to send bitcoin in a peer-to-peer fashion makes some noise around this case. None of the current administration's attempts to foster innovation around bitcoin in the United States will matter if the wrong precedent is set in this case. If the SDNY is successful in prosecuting Samourai Wallet, it will mean that anybody holding Bitcoin in self-custody, running a bitcoin fold node or mining bitcoin will have to KYC all of their users and counterparts lest they be labeled a money services business that is breaking laws stemming from the Bank Secrecy Act. This will effectively make building a self-custody bitcoin wallet, running a node, or mining bitcoin in tillegal in the United States. The ability to comply with the rules that would be unleashed if this Samourai case goes the wrong way, are such that it will effectively destroy the industry overnight.

It is yet to be seen whether or not the Department of Justice will step in to publicly flog the SDNY and force them to stop pursuing this case. This is the only likely way that the case will go away at this point, so it is very important that bitcoiners who care about being able to self-custody bitcoin, mine bitcoin, or send bitcoin in a peer-to-peer fashion in the United States make it clear to the current administration and any local politicians that this is an issue that you care deeply about. If we are too complacent, there is a chance that the SDNY could completely annihilate the bitcoin industry in America despite of all of the positive momentum we're seeing from all angles at the moment.

Make some noise!

Bitcoin Adoption by Power Companies: The Next Frontier

In my recent conversation with Andrew Myers from Satoshi Energy, he shared their ambitious mission to "enable every electric power company to use bitcoin by block 1,050,000" – roughly three years from now. This strategic imperative isn't just about creating new Bitcoin users; it's about sovereignty. Andrew emphasized that getting Bitcoin into the hands of energy companies who value self-sovereignty creates a more balanced future economic landscape. The excitement was palpable as he described how several energy companies are already moving beyond simply selling power to Bitcoin miners and are beginning to invest in mining operations themselves.

"You have global commodity companies being like, 'Oh, this is another commodity – we want to invest in this, we want to own this,'" - Andrew Myers

Perhaps most fascinating was Andrew's revelation about major energy companies in Texas developing Bitcoin collateral products for power contracts – a practical application that could revolutionize how energy transactions are settled. As energy companies continue embracing Bitcoin for both operations and collateral, we're witnessing the early stages of a profound shift in how critical infrastructure interfaces with sound money. The implications for both sectors could be transformative.

By Unknownfx

As a writer with over 100 stories published on platforms like Medium, I’ve explored countless spaces to share my voice. Few, however, have captured my heart quite like YakiHonne. This platform blends the best of creative expression, community engagement, and versatility, making it a perfect fit for someone like me, whose work spans self-improvement articles and forex/crypto trading posts. Below, I’ll dive into why YakiHonne has become my go-to platform, from its seamless writing experience to its vibrant, X-like social features.

A Writer’s Paradise for Self-Improvement and Mental Health Writing about self-improvement and mental health requires a space that feels safe, inspiring, and receptive. YakiHonne delivers exactly that. The platform’s clean interface and intuitive design make it easy to craft long-form articles that resonate with readers. Whether I’m sharing strategies for managing anxiety or tips for personal growth, YakiHonne’s formatting tools allow me to structure my thoughts clearly with headings, lists, and emphasis—perfect for breaking down complex topics into digestible insights.

What sets YakiHonne apart is its supportive community. Readers on the platform are genuinely engaged, leaving thoughtful comments that spark meaningful conversations. For instance, after posting an article on mindfulness techniques, I received feedback from readers who shared how my words helped them navigate tough days. This kind of connection fuels my passion for writing and reminds me why I focus on mental health and self-improvement. Unlike other platforms where articles can feel like they’re shouting into the void, YakiHonne makes every piece feel like a dialogue.

The X-Like Social Vibe: Notes, Quotes, and Instant Feedback One of my favorite features of YakiHonne is its resemblance to X, particularly in its note-posting and interaction mechanics. As someone who posts regularly about forex and crypto trading, I love the ability to share quick, bite-sized insights—market trends, trading psychology tips, or even a heads-up about a volatile crypto coin. These notes are like X posts: short, punchy, and designed to spark immediate engagement. The “quote” and “like” buttons add a layer of interactivity that makes posting feel dynamic and rewarding.

For example, when I shared a post about the importance of risk management in forex trading on X, it was quoted by several users who added their own perspectives, creating a mini-discussion thread. This instant feedback loop keeps me motivated to post regularly and I am seeing the same thing happening here. It’s also a great way to test ideas before turning them into full articles. The X-like social features make YakiHonne a hybrid platform—part writing hub, part social network—perfect for balancing my long-form self-improvement content with my trading-focused posts.

Versatility for My Dual Niches YakiHonne’s flexibility is a game-changer for someone like me with two distinct niches. My self-improvement and mental health articles require depth and storytelling, which YakiHonne’s article editor supports beautifully. Meanwhile, my forex and crypto trading posts thrive in the fast-paced, conversational note format. The platform doesn’t force me to choose between these worlds; instead, it gives me tools to excel in both.

This versatility also extends to audience reach. YakiHonne’s algorithm seems to understand my niches, recommending my articles to readers interested in personal growth and my notes to those following trading topics. This targeted exposure has helped me build a diverse following, something I struggled with on other platforms where my content sometimes got lost in the noise.

A Community That Feels Like Home Beyond the technical perks, YakiHonne’s community feels like a digital home. Writers and readers alike are passionate, curious, and supportive. I’ve connected with other creators who share my interests, from mental health advocates to trading enthusiasts. These connections have led to collaborations, like guest posts and even a few trading strategy discussions that inspired new content. The sense of belonging on YakiHonne is unmatched, making it a platform where I feel seen and valued as a writer.

Gratitude and Ambition: My YakiHonne Journey I’m endlessly grateful for discovering YakiHonne. It’s a platform that not only amplifies my voice but also aligns perfectly with my creative and social needs. As I continue to share my self-improvement articles and trading posts, I’m excited to grow my presence on YakiHonne, just as I’ve done on Medium and other platforms. My goal is to reach the top, building a loyal audience and making a lasting impact. With YakiHonne’s unique blend of features and community spirit, I’m confident this is just the beginning of an incredible journey.
