JUST IN: New WSJ article on Steak ’n Shake employees earning Bitcoin: "The workers serving those customers were still earning the same dollars whose purchasing power was slowly eroding." "Now, these workers can accumulate an asset outside of the traditional monetary system through their employer without sacrificing their dollar paychecks." "That’s what bitcoin’s promise should mean in practice. Not speculation for the wealthy, but an opportunity for ordinary Americans to build financial resilience, one paycheck at a time."

One of the biggest downtown housing crashes in America is happening right now in Nashville, TN. Condo owners are liquidating. And people who bought near the peak are selling at $300k+ losses. The previous condo owner bought it for $1.15 million in March 2024. And just sold it for $825,000 this month. That's a $325,000 loss (-28%) in just 2.5 years. And that's before realtor commissions and other expenses. And this downturn will likely continue, as Downtown Nashville has the biggest supply pile-up of any dowtown area in America. (inventory 110% above normal). In fact, typical values in Nashville 37203 already down 11.2% from peak, but clearly are dropping more in some cases. Meaning condo sellers are facing an enormous amount of competition, with more price cuts likely coming in 2027. Good news if you're looking to scoop up a discounted condo. Bad news if you bought near the peak. To see our forecast for your ZIP, go here: reventure.app/map/WAxwklIfgI

In 2025, we published a bold proposal to use fusion reactors for gold production. And now we’ve done it: Mercury transmuted into stable gold, using fusion neutrons, at 10x the record set by CERN in 2025. We’ve reduced alchemy to a series of difficult but tractable engineering problems.

🇬🇧 UK TAX AUTHORITY RESUMES DIRECT SEIZURES FROM BANK ACCOUNTS HMRC has reinstated powers suspended during the pandemic that allow it to recover unpaid taxes directly from individuals’ and businesses’ bank accounts without obtaining a court order. The policy, restarted in a “test and learn” phase in 2025, applies to tax debts of £1,000 or more and allows HMRC to withdraw funds from current accounts and cash ISAs. Safeguards include: • A minimum of £5,000 must remain in the debtor’s accounts. • HMRC must make a face-to-face visit before initiating recovery. • Debtors have 30 days to appeal before any funds are transferred. • Vulnerable individuals and those experiencing financial hardship may receive additional protections. The powers allow the government to compel banks and building societies to transfer funds directly to HMRC to settle outstanding tax liabilities.

Spot the differences. Act accordingly.
