Interesting analysis. Two shitcoiner shenanigans in particular:
1. Attack ads against candidates that don't mention crypto at all (and obfuscating the crypto connection by how they named the PACs). This wasn't some broader cultural push either, they would support radically opposed candidates.
2. Mostly supporting candidates that were likely to win anyway
Molly assesses that this was done to impress / intimidate politicians to pay attention to their demands moving forward, even if it's against the interests of their constituents.
A big goal of the industry is to get rid of SEC enforcement against them. Regardless of your opinion about the SEC, I think it's fair to say they're mostly a problem for "crypto", not for Bitcoin. The ETFs are there, that's pretty much all the Bitcoin subset of the crypto industry needs, afaik.
A more relevant goal of the lobby is to deal with unbanking of the industry. But Molly is worried that they want to go beyond that and make the government bail them out next time things implode. Which is also something I expect to happen. Though there's no concrete evidence for this yet. https://youtu.be/06DGU_o8h5A

Meanwhile Pertsev is still rotting in Dutch jail awaiting #TornadoCash trial. At this point even if he gets acquitted he'll probably have served the full sentence.
Habeas Corpus my ass, is what the judge presumably said, but I didn't attend the hearings. https://x.com/alex_pertsev/status/1859701374814126484

TV segment [Dutch] about the ongoing phishing fiasco at Booking and other hotel platforms. I've even had this happen when I booked directly with a hotel.
So far no sats were hurt in my case, but these criminals probably gained access to my personal details. Which neither Booking not only hotel has ever done a proper GDPR data breach disclosure for. https://youtu.be/sB4z-UcZbBk

If you pay capital gains tax on your Bitcoin, do you then owe more capital gains tax?

Dutch Central Bank continues it's fight for mass surveillance. Apparently there were some (web) shops where you could buy gift cards with fiat which could be exchanged for bitcoin or shitcoin.
They admit they have no evidence that it's used money laundering, but they suspect it's possible. They simply told the shops that they working with unregistered brokers, and that was enough for the webshops to delist the gift cards. https://www.nu.nl/economie/6336160/webwinkels-teruggefloten-die-voor-miljoenen-aan-cryptobonnen-verkochten.html

Bitcoin now at $96,600.00. Those of you in the old school who believe this is a bubble simply have not understood the new mathematics of the Blockchain, or you did not cared enough to try. Bubbles are mathematically impossible in this new paradigm. So are corrections and all else

GM. Why does NGU and watching my net worth go up almost daily feel so bad man?
I don't know about everyone else, but I am nowhere near my stacking goal. And it's getting farther and farther out of reach with every $ added to the Bitcoin exchange rate. ๐Ÿ˜ข
