Why is the real Satoshi so feared and hated?

Here’s the truth: Australian/UK polymath Dr. Craig S. Wright is Satoshi Nakamoto, the inventor of Bitcoin. See Mathematical proof that Dr. Craig S. Wright is Satoshi Nakamoto. But most people in the crypto world still refuse to recognize this identity.

The federal policies on banks issuing dollar-denominated tokens

Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board) has made a policy statement on banks issuing dollar-denominated tokens: The Board generally believes that issuing tokens on open, public, and/or decentralized networks, or similar systems is highly likely to be inconsistent with safe and sound banking practices. The Board believes such tokens raise concerns related to operational, cybersecurity, and run risks, and may also present significant illicit finance risks, because—depending on their design—such tokens could… Read More »The federal policies on banks issuing dollar-denominated tokens

Digital assets are subject to property laws

Can a court of law order bitcoin to be moved from one address to another without having the private key of the first address?

The Digital Dollar Project

The Digital Dollar Project's Whitepaper 2.0 represents a progress in realizing that the US CBDC is not going to be a new kind of money, but just a new kind of currency. Money is value agreement, while currency is value transmission technology. See Money & Currency.

What does BTC futures surging despite FTX collapse tell you?

Forbes report: Despite FTX Collapse Bitcoin Futures Surge.

This is worse news upon bad news because it only highlights the problem in crypto. 

In any economy, there are always producers and traders, and they can be healthily symbiotic. But a collapse becomes a certainty when traders are trading on values that are solely created by trading itself (i.e., speculative value arising from speculative trading activities alone), instead of value producers who are independent economic actors.
