A famous crypto personality, Armando Pantoja, has highlighted Ripple’s growing expansion, citing the potential XRP adoption by Thailand, as noted in a recent letter by Ripple. According to Pantoja, it looks like BRICS nations are all about XRP. @0xBrainFace
Meanwhile, the shared letter highlighted Ripple’s acknowledgment of the opportunity to comment on a Bank of Thailand Discussion Paper. Titled “The Way Forward For Retail Central Bank Digital Currency in Thailand,” Ripple noted that the Paper represents an in-depth research and analysis of the CBDC subject in Thailand. @0xBrainFace
Once the starting gun was fired in the battle for Number 10, Coinbase doubled down by bringing its Stand With Crypto campaign to British shores. Initially launched as an American initiative that “mobilizes the crypto community to directly engage in the legislative process,” a glitzy launch event was held in the House of Commons last month. It was attended by government minist @brainface_eth @0xbrainface

You could argue that it should be. The latest data from the Financial Conduct Authority shows that 9% of U.K. adults owned crypto in August 2021. That’s equivalent to almost five million people — and given the recent bull market, there’s little doubt these numbers are soft. @0xBrainFace

The incident also raises questions about the inherent risks of a decentralized and anonymous currency. While Bitcoin’s design offers freedom from traditional financial institutions, it also removes the safety nets that those institutions provide. @0xBrainFace

Skeptics also noted that the transfer of 25,000 bitcoins seemed unusually high and risky for unprotected storage. Discussions on forums were filled with debates about security flaws, personal responsibility, and the potential need for central bank-like structures in the crypto world. @0xBrainFace

The Bitcoin community, meanwhile, was rife with conspiracy theories. Some questioned the credibility of allinvain’s claims, citing skepticism over the username ‘allinvain’ in light of the circumstances.

Additionally, Forbes highlighted the challenge of verifying the theft itself, citing the difficulty in providing concrete evidence of the stolen Bitcoins’ existence. @0xBrainFace
However, the real issue was that his computer had been hacked, and the unencrypted wallet file was stolen. He suspected that a Trojan virus, bitcoin-miner.exe, which he had previously used as Bitcoin mining software, was the method of attack. @0xBrainFace
He confessed to feeling a mix of anger and self-blame, questioning if there was any way to invalidate the stolen coins. Unfortunately, Bitcoin’s decentralized nature meant that once a transaction was made, it couldn’t be reversed. @0xBrainFace
The incident dealt a devastating blow, leaving allinvain understandably distraught. He shared his anguish in Bitcoin community forums, expressing regret and frustration over the loss. @0xBrainFace
This incident was one of the first major Bitcoin thefts and sent shockwaves through the crypto community. For allinvain, it was a devastating blow, both financially and emotionally. The once hopeful and promising world of Bitcoin had suddenly turned into a nightmare

The BANANA Bill: Frens Gotta Eat
A 100m program facilitated by Full Moon Labs sounds great, right? 🧐
What if I told you that the company was founded in May 2024 and has 1 employee aka the founder himself?
No website, no socials, nothing (an assumption after I could not find anything)
I wonder what the potential legal advisor from Yuga said here ;)
Liability? Capital reserves? Risk distribution?
I don't have a legal degree but my common sense tells me that I wouldn't recommend this.
On top of that: what if he gets sick or goes on holiday with his family for 2 weeks?
I feel sorry about exposing this because I met the founder in person in Lisbon...
However, I'm sure he's not building his entire business on one "client and tbh the well-being of $APE and ApeChain is more important to me 🫡
And it shows once again that this is not the case with people in charge right now.
Finally put an end to nepotism!!!
(Nepotism is the unfair use of power in order to get jobs or other benefits for your family or friends.)
Another shocker: the AIP is set to go live on June 20, 2024 😲
So no clue if this post will do anything because it seems to be a done deal already...
Do I enjoy always posting negative stuff and calling out bs? Not really, but it seems no one else will.

💡Version 1 of our Testnet Newton saw tremendous success because of the high level of support from the community with 600k+ wallets registered. Nevertheless, licensing issues required a comprehensive network upgrade. Despite its achievements, there was room for improvement, leading us to Testnet Newton V2 with stability fixes and security enhancements!
