Banks and payments providers are required to update their existing merchant QR codes to Bangla QR by June 30 or face financial penalties. Officials claim the system will help create more digital transaction records, shrink the informal economy, improve tax collection, and strengthen anti-money laundering efforts. It also comes as part of the central bank’s efforts to reduce reliance on more private payment methods, such as cash. <a href="http://FinancialFreedomReport.org">FinancialFreedomReport.org</a> </p> <p>Bitcoin Core 31.1 Released: Fixes PrivateBroadcast IP Leak and Chainstate Issues <a href="https://bitcoincore.org/en/releases/31.1/">https://bitcoincore.org/en/releases/31.1/</a> </p> <p>SeedSigner v0.8.7 “Summer of SeedSigner”: 22 Languages and BBQr Support <a href="https://github.com/SeedSigner/seedsigner/releases/tag/0.8.7">https://github.com/SeedSigner/seedsigner/releases/tag/0.8.7</a> </p> <p>Bitcoin Safe 2.0.0: Guided Wallet Setup, Private Sync, and Device-Focused Signing <a href="https://bitcoin-safe.org/en/news/bitcoin-safe-2-0-0/">https://bitcoin-safe.org/en/news/bitcoin-safe-2-0-0/</a> </p> <p>Giga Energy Introduces GigaBase: AI Data Centers Ready in 9 Months <a href="https://x.com/GigaEnergy_/status/2074478543719800951">https://x.com/GigaEnergy_/status/2074478543719800951</a> </p> <p>3:33 - Opening riff </p> <p>5:23 - Dashboard </p> <p>9:08 - Bull Bitcoin DAC8 </p> <p>23:43 - Strike </p> <p>27:58 - Polymarket Spark </p> <p>29:58 - Radar Chat </p> <p>35:28 - Sen.

To support the rollout, Chinese-backed regional security partners are providing financial and technical support for the project and have pledged to expand the camera grid in the future. Cambodian officials say the project will protect residents and tourists. But in a country where dissent is overtly and systematically punished, these new AI-powered systems can easily double as a surveillance machine capable of identifying anyone who criticizes the ruling party. <a href="http://FinancialFreedomReport.org">FinancialFreedomReport.org</a> </p> <p>Ashigaru Terminal v1.0.0 Released: Whirlpool Coinjoin Client Built from Sparrow <a href="https://ashigaru.rs/news/release-terminal-v1-0-0/">https://ashigaru.rs/news/release-terminal-v1-0-0/</a> </p> <p>COLDCARD 5.5.1 and 1.4.1Q Firmware: BIP-322 Proof of Reserves, WIF Store, and Secure Notes Upgrades <a href="https://blog.coinkite.com/coldcard-5.5.1-1.4.1q-release/">https://blog.coinkite.com/coldcard-5.5.1-1.4.1q-release/</a> </p> <p>Wasabi Wallet v2.8.0 Release <a href="https://github.com/WalletWasabi/WalletWasabi/releases/tag/v2.8.0">https://github.com/WalletWasabi/WalletWasabi/releases/tag/v2.8.0</a> </p> <p>Noah v0.1.3 Release <a href="https://github.com/smolcars/noah/releases/tag/v0.1.3">https://github.com/smolcars/noah/releases/tag/v0.1.3</a> </p> <p>New Checkout Method for in Person BTCPay Stores <a href="https://x.com/MrKukks/status/2072677988026421484">https://x.com/MrKukks/status/2072677988026421484</a> </p> <p>Bitcoin Core secp256k1 Pull Request #1884 <a href="https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1/pull/1884">https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1/pull/1884</a> </p> <p>Tails 7.9.1 Release <a href="https://tails.net/news/version_7.9.1/">https://tails.net/news/version_7.9.1/</a> </p> <p>Open Standard Introduces Open USD <a href="https://joinopenstandard.com/blog/introducing-open-usd">https://joinopenstandard.com/blog/introducing-open-usd</a> </p> <p>The Secret History of Polymarket – Part 1: DARPA, Thiel, and Prediction Market Origins <a href="https://unlimitedhangout.com/2026/06/investigative-series/the-secret-history-of-polymarket-part-1/">https://unlimitedhangout.com/2026/06/investigative-series/the-secret-history-of-polymarket-part-1/</a> </p> <p>Claude Code Accused of Hiding China Proxy Fingerprints Inside System Prompts <a href="https://www.internationalcyberdigest.com/claude-code-accused-of-hiding-china-proxy-fingerprints-inside-system-prompts/">https://www.internationalcyberdigest.com/claude-code-accused-of-hiding-china-proxy-fingerprints-inside-system-prompts/</a> </p> <p>Foreign Influence Campaign Against American AI – Part II: Singham Ground Game <a href="https://www.btcpolicy.org/articles/foreign-influence-campaign-against-american-ai-part-ii-singham-ground-game">https://www.btcpolicy.org/articles/foreign-influence-campaign-against-american-ai-part-ii-singham-ground-game</a> </p> <p>AI Drones Rapidly Restoring Degraded Land in Brazil (MORFO) <a href="https://x.com/alex_verem/status/2072001777487196662">https://x.com/alex_verem/status/2072001777487196662</a> </p> <p>Home Mining Playbook: <a href="https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook">https://www.tftc.io/home-mining-energy-playbook</a> </p> <p>3:33 - Sweaty rip </p> <p>6:38 - Dashboard </p> <p>9:28 - Venezuela relief </p> <p>14:28 - Strike EU </p> <p>16:13 - Bark </p> <p>18:43 - Blink </p> <p>23:23 - Open USD </p> <p>27:13 - OpenSats </p> <p>31:03 - BitGo layoffs </p> <p>32:28 - Strategy update </p> <p>33:58 - HRF Story of the Week </p> <p>38:43 - Boosts </p> <p>44:18 - Software updates </p> <p>47:58 - Secret history of Polymarket </p> <p>53:18 - BPI foreign AI </p> <p>59:38 - MORFO </p> <p>Shoutout to our sponsors: </p> <p>Coinkite </p> <p><a href="https://coinkite.com/">https://coinkite.com/</a> </p> <p>Strike </p> <p><a href="https://strike.me/">https://strike.me/</a> </p> <p>Stakwork </p> <p><a href="https://stakwork.ai/">https://stakwork.ai/</a> </p> <p>Salt of the Earth </p> <p><a href="https://drinksote.com/rhr">https://drinksote.com/rhr</a> </p> <p>Follow Marty Bent: </p> <p>Twitter </p> <p><a href="https://twitter.com/martybent">https://twitter.com/martybent</a> </p> <p>Nostr </p> <p><a href="https://primal.net/marty">https://primal.net/marty</a> </p> <p>Newsletter </p> <p><a href="https://tftc.io/martys-bent/">https://tftc.io/martys-bent/</a> </p> <p>Podcast </p> <p><a href="https://tftc.io/podcasts/">https://tftc.io/podcasts/</a> </p> <p>Follow Odell: </p> <p>Nostr </p> <p><a href="https://primal.net/odell">https://primal.net/odell</a> </p> <p>Newsletter </p> <p><a href="https://discreetlog.com/">https://discreetlog.com/</a> </p> <p>Podcast </p> <p><a href="https://citadeldispatch.com/">https://citadeldispatch.com/</a></p>

The money came from small jobs and side work, carefully set aside in a separate bank account opened specifically for that purpose. But when the balance exceeded a certain threshold, the financial system automatically froze the account. Overnight, Shiva had been cut off from his own money. When the issue was escalated to the branch manager of his bank, they explained that the freeze was automatically imposed from the central bank’s IT system, and there was nothing they could do. To recover access, he was prompted to complete forms written in English, a language he could not easily navigate. Ultimately, the account was restored only after outside intervention from a friend who helped push the case through a process Shiva could not resolve on his own. <a href="http://FinancialFreedomReport.org">FinancialFreedomReport.org</a> </p> <p>Tor Project to Sunset Tor 0.4.8; Upgrade to 0.4.9 by September <a href="https://blog.torproject.org/sunsetting-tor-048/">https://blog.torproject.org/sunsetting-tor-048/</a> </p> <p>JoinMarket-NG 0.33.0 Adds Config Center, Wallet History API, and Address-Reuse Defense <a href="https://github.com/joinmarket-ng/joinmarket-ng/releases/tag/0.33.0">https://github.com/joinmarket-ng/joinmarket-ng/releases/tag/0.33.0</a> </p> <p>Utreexo v0.18.0 Improves Forest Allocation, Rehashing, and Windows Builds <a href="https://github.com/utreexo/utreexo/releases/tag/v0.18.0">https://github.com/utreexo/utreexo/releases/tag/v0.18.0</a> </p> <p>ASIC-RS v0.7.0 Adds Power Limits, Miner State Messages, and Temperature Model <a href="https://github.com/256foundation/asic-rs/releases/tag/v0.7.0">https://github.com/256foundation/asic-rs/releases/tag/v0.7.0</a> </p> <p>The Six Billion Dollar Man Bitcoin Premiere Bypasses Media Gatekeepers <a href="https://www.thesixbilliondollarman.com">https://www.thesixbilliondollarman.com</a> </p> <p>Imagine If Nashville Project Homepage <a href="https://www.imagineifnashville.com">https://www.imagineifnashville.com</a> </p> <p>Freedom Tech DC 2026 <a href="https://www.btcpolicy.org/summit">https://www.btcpolicy.org/summit</a> </p> <p>3:33 - WE RIPPIN </p> <p>4:38 - Dashboard </p> <p>11:53 - Coinkite paper spam </p> <p>21:33 - Camp Nakamoto </p> <p>22:48 - StratumV2 </p> <p>24:38 - CLARITY loopholes </p> <p>28:48 - HRF Story of the Week </p> <p>32:13 - Boosts </p> <p>38:43 - Software updates </p> <p>45:53 - Imagine If & Freedom Tech DC </p> <p>47:33 - Economy data </p> <p>Shoutout to our sponsors: </p> <p>Coinkite </p> <p><a href="https://coinkite.com/">https://coinkite.com/</a> </p> <p>Strike </p> <p><a href="https://strike.me/">https://strike.me/</a> </p> <p>Stakwork </p> <p><a href="https://stakwork.ai/">https://stakwork.ai/</a> </p> <p>Salt of the Earth </p> <p><a href="https://drinksote.com/rhr">https://drinksote.com/rhr</a> </p> <p>Follow Marty Bent: </p> <p>Twitter </p> <p><a href="https://twitter.com/martybent">https://twitter.com/martybent</a> </p> <p>Nostr </p> <p><a href="https://primal.net/marty">https://primal.net/marty</a> </p> <p>Newsletter </p> <p><a href="https://tftc.io/martys-bent/">https://tftc.io/martys-bent/</a> </p> <p>Podcast </p> <p><a href="https://tftc.io/podcasts/">https://tftc.io/podcasts/</a> </p> <p>Follow Odell: </p> <p>Nostr </p> <p><a href="https://primal.net/odell">https://primal.net/odell</a> </p> <p>Newsletter </p> <p><a href="https://discreetlog.com/">https://discreetlog.com/</a> </p> <p>Podcast </p> <p><a href="https://citadeldispatch.com/">https://citadeldispatch.com/</a></p>
