Roger Ver pays Trump’s ‘dirty trickster’ $600,000 to escape extradition Roger Ver renounced his US citizenship but is now trying to change US law. Prosecutors charged with Ver with tax evasion. He has retained Roger Stone to lobby for an end to the ‘exit tax’.

So a millionaire crypto bro wanted to ditch his US citizenship to avoid tax and instead of just paying up like your average Eduardo Saverin or Goldman partner, he gave Roger Stone $600k to lobby Trump for him

Bitcoin buying SPAC venture Twenty One lists 76 risks. Here are some big ones An investor prospectus for Twenty One Ventures outlines possible pitfalls for investors. Some are unusual, and go beyond the typical volatility and regulatory hurdles for most crypto companies.

I pored over the investor prospectus for the new Bitcoin buying SPAC from Softbank, Tether, and Cantor Fitzgerald so you don't have to.

Bitcoin isn’t the most volatile asset anymore. Here’s why that matters The US economy is looking wobbly. Is this Bitcoin's moment to behave like a safe haven asset?

I wrote about how traders are running out of places to hide, and how US stocks are acting like shitcoins now 💩

Traders are running out of safe havens. Now should be Bitcoin’s time to shine Markets are in a flux. US equities, bonds, and the dollar are all sinking. That should, in theory, create an opportunity for Bitcoin to become a safe haven. The reality is more complicated.

The markets are all wonky - where can traders hide?

Just been casually reminiscing about how the world's leading investment banks all coughed up about $200m each in fines for their employees' unauthorised use of WhatsApp, for a total haul to the US purse of well over $2 billion.

He doesn't mean "you've have to wait and see", does he? He means "we don't know yet either".

Very much cunning blueprint for a Mar-a-Lago accord to reorder the world trading system and not at all making it up as they go along.
