🚬 In Ethereum Foundation, love for open source was taken to samurai extremes — a vow to commit SEPPUKU was included in the 1000-year plan, if the software stops being free. According to a lawsuit by a former employee, about 80 people demanded the removal of the clause, but management left it as a picture with cats and an anime girl, and the protest organizers were fired. @DeCenterOrg

🇪🇺 The capitalization of euro stablecoins reached a record €751,000,000, increasing by 53% over the year — with 83% of the market accounted for by just two tokens — EURC from Circle and EURCV from the French bank Société Générale. @DeCenterOrg

🇨🇳 They say, besides the head of Nvidia Chinese intelligence tried to infiltrate their spy into the circle of Vitalik Buterin, but the operation failed miserably.

🪙 Strategy bought an additional 1037 BTC — the company's balance now holds 850,364 BTC. @DeCenterOrg

🐳 In just 11 seconds on Binance and Hyperliquid, three huge longs totaling $132,000,000 were liquidated — two on Ethereum for $48.16 million and $46.77 million, and one on Bitcoin for $36.86 million. @DeCenterOrg

🇰🇬 Kyrgyzstan is considering creating a state crypto reserve and is already studying El Salvador's experience — the countries discussed how to store and protect digital assets, and also signed a memorandum of cooperation in the field of cryptocurrencies. @DeCenterOrg

💸 Coinbase received a full federal trust license in the US — banking regulator OCC allowed the company to provide digital asset custody and payment processing services under federal supervision. However, the exchange does not become a regular bank; the license does not allow it to accept deposits or issue loans. @DeCenterOrg

⛔️ Tomorrow, November 10, Binance finally closes its Bitcoin mining pool, which managed to mine only 1 block in the last week — since December 2025, the pool's computing power has decreased by approximately 65%, and now the exchange has decided to shut down its operations. @DeCenterOrg

🇫🇮 In the Finnish city of Nokia, owners of a 180 m² house refused centralized heating and replaced it with a Bitcoin miner. Now the equipment simultaneously mines BTC and heats water for home heating up to 60 °C, and mining income can cover electricity costs. However, the installation itself costs about €20,000, and its payback period depends on the Bitcoin exchange rate. @DeCenterOrg

🇺🇸 In the US have gone after Binance, Tether, and the Trump family's crypto business — Senator Richard Blumenthal demanded the disclosure of documents concerning suspicious financial transactions, including possible transfers related to Iran. The companies were given until January 4, 2027 — for now, the request is voluntary, but soon the senator may gain the right to demand documents through Congress. @DeCenterOrg

🪙 Over the past week, investors withdrew $1.28 billion from spot Bitcoin ETFs — the largest weekly outflow since June. Meanwhile, Bitcoin continued to fall and today briefly dropped to $73,708, setting a new low since August. @DeCenterOrg

🪙 Vitalik Buterin believes that Ethereum should focus on ETH as a store of value, rather than on burning fees for price growth. According to him, the pursuit of high fees can harm the network's main advantage — decentralization. @DeCenterOrg

🇫🇷 A Parisian court sentenced Holograph's Ukrainian developer to 2 years of actual imprisonment and 3 years suspended for creating and stealing 1 billion HLG tokens worth approximately $14,000,000 — after being fired, the programmer retained access to the project's system and used it to issue tokens and transfer them to his own wallet. @DeCenterOrg
