Today, I attended the mass drop of nearly 2,000 paratroopers from historical airplanes near Arnhem. Over the past few days, I had seen these planes flying over my house as they prepared for today's memorial of Operation Market Garden, which took place 81 years ago.
One of the paratroopers accidentally landed among the audience:

The Dutch bitcoin companies have won a lawsuit against the regulator.
Good to read that the lawsuit against DNB (the Dutch central bank) has been won on appeal. I actively contributed to this at the start in my former role as chairman of the United Bitcoin Companies Netherlands (VBNL). Winning a lawsuit against a party who's main job is to make sure everyone is compliant is a *huge* thing. However, the damage is done; Some companies are gone already.
