so just to recap
- WSJ journalists (Angus Berwick & Ian Talley) write a flurry of articles citing Elliptic data claiming that PIJ (Hamas affiliate) raised $93m in crypto (and cites BitOK claiming Hamas raised $41m) [1]
- Sen Warren uses this article to claim that Hamas raised "over $130m" in crypto. This article is her SOLE citation in her letter. The entire letter depends on the WSJ article [2]
- Over 100 member of Congress sign the letter, which asks for the Biden admin to further crack down on crypto
- Chainalysis comes out with an article disputing the WSJ claims, saying that instead of $82m of terror financing, the real figure is around $450k. It's unclear which wallets they are referring to. Either way, it looks like the WSJ analysis is vastly overstated [3]
- WSJ refuses to follow up or retract, instead writing more articles relying on their claims

We will never launch a token. And everyone retweeting this, following us, and dropping their ETH address below will never get a shitload of them. Seriously.

Being a Bitcoin maxi is being smart enough to understand the world is changing but being too fearful to completely embrace the change.

DocuSign is a $40B company. I bet even they didn’t think that would happen. They help you sign documents.... $40B. How has Adobe not stolen this from them? Next time you think your idea might be too small, just remember DocuSign.

Most "fintech" I see is a better-looking UI for legacy infrastructure. People working on crypto have ambitions to re-architect the stack itself.
Decentralized finance is subversive, cypherpunk technology, coming at a time where most things are boring.

I have to do more?
No — YOU have to do something! You’re supposed to be the President.

Increasingly looks like China story is 1) Huobi and OKEx get *some* level of approval (“institutionalization”) 2) Binance and international exchanges mostly iced out 3) Small casino (“bucket shop”) exchanges like MXC and Biki get shuttered or chased offshore

A history lesson for people who think that history doesn't matter:
What's the big deal about railroad tracks?
The US standard railroad gauge (distance between the rails) is 4 feet, 8.5 inches. That's an exceedingly odd number.
Why was that gauge used?
Well, because that's the way

We are now officially in the "bargaining" stage of the 5 stages of grief for traditional financial services.
In order to bargain, the financial industry made a deal with the devil and got a fake blockchain in return.

It appears as if there may be a problem with the Bitcoin Cash hardfork upgrade, the number of txs per block is low (0 in the last 9 blocks, other than the coinbase txn). Our mempool has 1622 txs
Below chart is number of txs per block and the orange line is the hardfork point

When I was little I was determined to always protect nature, stand against 'bad people' to save forests, animals, wilderness. 🌳🌱🦝🦉
As I grew up my convictions slowly faded, and I've done literally nothing.
