Living sane in an insane society is not easy. It’s a daily battle between your ego and your mind. The mind drags you to the old settings, while your ego wants to remain in the new settings, where it seeks pleasure in discovering truths that would eventually shake many minds.

📱 Apple rewards for privacy failures In order to defend the security and privacy of its new "Apple Intelligence" system (Private Cloud Computing), those from Cupertino are offering from $50,000 to $1,000,000 for those who find privacy flaws. "Because we care deeply about any compromise to user privacy or security, we will consider any security issue that has a significant impact to PCC for an Apple Security Bounty reward, even if it doesn't fit into a published category." A good way to encourage the search for gaps in the system that may end up being more than just a mistake

Let me analyze the potential impact on #Bitcoin 's price if USDT fails: Immediate Impact: - Severe downward pressure, likely causing a sharp crash - Historical precedent: When smaller stablecoins like UST failed, #BTC dropped ~40% - USDT's failure would be far more impactful as it represents the largest stablecoin market cap - Massive forced liquidations of leveraged positions would amplify the crash - Potential for cascading margin calls across exchanges Short-term Effects: - Trading volume would drop significantly as USDT pairs account for major BTC liquidity - Panic selling as traders try to exit positions - Reduced ability to arbitrage between exchanges - Price discovery becomes more difficult - Wider bid-ask spreads due to reduced liquidity Medium-term Recovery Factors: - Bitcoin could actually benefit long-term as a "flight to quality" - Some USDT holders might rush to convert to BTC as a safe haven - Market could shift to alternative trading pairs (USD, USDC, EUR) - Historical resilience: BTC has recovered from previous market shocks The severity would largely depend on: 1. How suddenly USDT fails 2. Whether the failure is partial or complete 3. The state of broader market conditions 4. How quickly alternative trading pairs can absorb volume

🏦 The European Central Bank doesn't like Bitcoin New ECB paper claims early adopters of #bitcoin policies steal economic value from later adopters This could "facilitate" the excuse for new taxes on Bitcoin or even bans (something that in some cases would be impossible to do). In addition, there is a constant demand for regulation: "to prevent Bitcoin prices from rising or to see Bitcoin disappear completely" or even claim that it could lead to "the division of society." It is also said that there will be few left for newcomers (Is it the only asset that can be revalued because there are limited units? xd) Tuur Demeester, who has spoken about this, says the following:

And no, this will not be a war between the haves and the have-nots. Rather, it will be a historic clash between those who defend the natural rights of the individual and those who cling to the failed ideologies of collectivism and central planning. Full ECB paper:
