A lot of people surprised that XRP/Ripple attacks bitcoin in the EU. I was previously said that Ripple was side to side with other bitcoiners in the US defending/ lobbying in favor of the crypto industry. In the EU there is no bitcoin lobby as in the US. So if you go to any public event of the crypto industry or read their recommendations, you will see that Ripple and ETH foundation consistently have been attacking bitcoin for the last years. Thanks to them we have now less privacy for financial freedoms since they didn’t support our amendments for AML regulation before it was adopted last year. So Im not surprised why they now attack BSR in the US.

This is why we need to protect privacy above all: @Ledger co-founder David Balland was kidnapped and a cryptocurrency ransom was demanded. He was rescued by GIGN and multiple suspects are in custody. View quoted note →

END ANONYMITY AND MEET DIGITAL ID TO USE INTERNET Spain's PM Pedro Sánchez wants to "end anonymity" of all users on social media. In practice it is not about social media, but also about access to #internet. Welcome to the new reality. It is more dangerous in case of abuse of power than chat control or even AML/CFT regulations. So what guys do we do? How we will use #bitcoin and #nostr privately if we have to use digital ID to be online?

If you are in Berlin on 31st Jan join me to discuss: 🧡 what we can do jointly to stop and prevent abuse of AML/CFT laws, weaponization of financial data, 🧡how to protect FreedomTech and its developers; 🧡what role Bitcoin as a crypto-asset plays in allowing financial inclusion. View quoted note →

Everyone knows it from birth, but forgets it because we don't use it. What is it?

TARCZYŃSKI MEP NIGHT APOLOGIES TO ME AND OPEN DIALOGUE FOUNDATION FOR DEFAMATION On 3rd of Jan 2025 a Member of the European Parliament and candidate for the Law and Justice's would-be presidential election Dominik Tarczynski has published an apology for slandering me, Lyudmyla Kozlovska, and Open Dialogue Foundation. His statement is the result of a final lost in court. However, Tarczynski wrote it overnight in the hope that no one would see it while our profiles in X have been blocked by him. Just to recall, Tarczynski in 2019 slandered us for money laundering from #Russia. He attacked us with same false slanders in while he was a Member of Parliamentary Assembley of the Council of Europe, and then in the European Parliament. This slander was also affecting our rights for banking services in the #EU, financially excluding me, my family members and different entities connected with me. The verdict in this case came down in the summer of 2022, and on 20 Dec. 2024 the Court of Appeal in #Warsaw rejected his whole application, requiring a compensation and the publication of such content: 'I, Dominik Tarczynski, apologise to Lyudmyla Kozlovska for infringement of her dignity and good name and to the Open Dialogue Foundation in Warsaw (Registration no. (KRS): 0000353754) for damage to its reputation and good name by disseminating damaging and untrue information about their participation in laundering of money coming from Russia during my appearance in the Deutsche Welle programme ‘Conflict Zone’'. Certainly 10 000 PLN as compensation isn't enough to restore the reputation and damage caused by Tarczynski for the last 5 years. We should put in place more effective accountability measures to stop these kinds of attacks, especially from state representatives in the Parliamentary Assembley of the Council of Europe and European Parliament.
