We’ve got something planned.

Catch Tony on the Orange Stage as he joins @TychoOnnasch and @tierotiero to debate how far Bitcoin can go into traditional finance before it stops being Bitcoin.
See you there 👋

Bitcoin didn’t remove trust. It redistributed it.
Our Ecosystem Director @eleanor_RColl writes in @AsianBusiness_ on what the @COLDCARDwallet and @Liquid_BTC incidents reveal about where trust actually sits:
🔹 Every custody model has its own dependencies
🔹 Choosing a third party doesn’t remove your responsibility
🔹 The people maintaining Bitcoin infrastructure need real support

Can blockchain help fight financial crime?
RootstockLabs Intelligence Manager Gabriela spent the day recently at @LSEGplc Risk Revealed, talking AI, compliance and financial crime with people from @bancosantander, @ProsegurGlobal and others.
What stuck with her: AI is only as good as the data you feed it.
That’s where blockchain gets interesting. Every transaction is traceable, so it’s easier to follow the money and spot risk early.
But tech doesn’t take the blame when things go wrong. As one speaker put it: “AI is not responsible. Humans are.”

43% of gold’s yearly demand has nothing to do with money. It comes from jewellery, electronics and industry.
Bitcoin has proven it’s money. It hasn’t found its second job yet.

Funfact:
About the image: Petrus Christus, A Goldsmith in his Shop, Bruges, 1449.
The couple is buying a wedding ring. Gold as jewellery, not money.
575+ years on, that second source of demand is still going.

Before you start signing, here’s the one thing @SDLerner and Shreemoy want you to know,

Fiat supply is decided in meetings. Bitcoin’s was decided in 2009.
Every 210,000 blocks, the reward miners earn for a new block is cut in half. The next cut is in 2028, and everyone already knows the number: 1.5625 bitcoin:native.
Over 20 million of the 21 million bitcoin are already mined.
The last fraction won’t be mined until around 2140.
