Overall, Stratum v2 is a significant improvement over v1 in terms of security, efficiency, decentralization, and scalability. As Braiins helped develope Stratum v1 and now v2 their Braiins OS mining software supports it but they seem to be the only ones that do. Why don’t the ASIC maunfacturers support v2 yet?

Mullvad VPN was raided by Police In line with their no logs policies they didn't keep any data or logs on their customers. They argued the police had no reason to expect to find what they were looking for and any seizures would therefore be illegal under Swedish law. After demonstrating that this is how their service worked the police left empty handed. Mullvad VPN are one a only a few VPN provider I trust with my data. https://habla.news/a/naddr1qqxnzd3cxgcrzve3xyenjvfhqy08wumn8ghj7mn0wd68yttsw43zuam9d3kx7unyv4ezumn9wshszrnhwden5te0dehhxtnvdakz7qglwaehxw309ahx7um5wgkhyetvv9ujumn0ddhhgctjduhxxmmd9uq3xamnwvaz7tm0venxx6rpd9hzuur4vghsz9thwden5te0wfjkccte9ejxzmt4wvhxjme0qgs2nlwxh3507emyfajm733hr7a0axrqdvsfrts5s5qwzgs8rxwjrgsrqsqqqa28yuyaka

I’m not sure the UK is quit ready for Bitcoin but here’s hoping. "The UK has an immense opportunity to become one of the first jurisdictions globally to embrace Bitcoin. We have seen what is possible in El Salvador, which is experiencing huge gains due to its forward-thinking approach to Bitcoin. The UK can secure a similar competitive advantage and we hope to support the British people in making that happen."

It was not Satochis vision but most of the Bitcoin ecosystem today centres around custodial exchanges and wallets that charge fees, collect sensitive information about our activity, and constantly rug pull us intentionally or due to hacks and theft. We need to be using P2P & KYC free exchanges and #[0]​ gives us some great options in his recent article. My favourites are RoboSats and HodlHodl
