@CoinDCX @CoinSwitch @Unocoin A conservative gov will never reduce tax on crypto. Their problem is at a different level. On how to distribute free bees with tax collected. Very sad. As middle class slip into poverty So does India slip in fin/tech

Bitcoin has crossed $100K! 🚀 "Bitcoin has no value." "Bitcoin is a fad." "Bitcoin will go back to zero." These were some of the statements the CoinDCX : India Ka Crypto Coach team frequently heard when we started out in 2018. Even our own friends and family echoed some of these doubts! But having done our research into the core technology, blockchain, and having experienced its potential firsthand, we at CoinDCX remained confident that Bitcoin would revolutionize the world. We took it as a challenge upon ourselves to be India’s crypto coach—educating, empowering, and guiding millions of Indians to #LearnKaroCryptoKaro. A big thank you to all our partners ,community , believers, customers and everyone who took this journey with us! And yes, Bitcoin has faced its share of ups and downs—and it will likely experience some future fluctuations too. But this $100K milestone is a powerful validation of Bitcoin's long-term potential. 🚀 #100KNotOut #Bitcoin

There was a ton of gloom and doom in this space, with many wondering if it would ever pick itself up again. Well, just two short years later and things feel better than ever. Big institutional players have moved in this space, and many feel extremely bullish. Next week, we'll be diving in on our bread and butter with an episode on Intents and Solvers!

Why Flexa Co-Founder Tyler Spalding Is Bullish on Zano 👀| Free the Money Ep. 40 Tyler Spalding is President of the Acronym Foundation and the former Co-Founder & CEO of Flexa, a digital payments network. He has been mining and building in crypto since 2011 and has more than 20 years of experience across technology, payments and aerospace, including engineering work with the U.S. Air Force and NASA programs. His work in crypto and Web3 has spanned a number of projects, including Anvil 🛠️ and SPENDERS CLUB, with a longstanding focus on payments and bringing digital assets into real-world use. In this episode, Tyler shares his perspective on what it will actually take for digital assets to become usable money and why privacy is essential for adoption at scale. For the first time publicly, Tyler discusses his longtime support for Zano, what he believes the project has gotten right, and why its approach to privacy and security has positioned it ahead of the curve in preparing for emerging AI threats. We also discuss stablecoins, private digital dollars, Zano’s Hard Fork 6, cross-chain interoperability & Zcash. Tyler makes the case for Proof of Stake over Proof of Work, including the security risks he sees in PoW networks, and we explore the bigger challenge of moving crypto from something people simply hold to something they can privately and securely spend in the real world.

🚨BREAKING: White House Crypto Chief Says “Bitcoin Is Not XRP” — and “Tens of Trillions Are Coming by The Year End” at Ripple Swell🇺🇸🚀 This might’ve been the most electric interview of Ripple Swell 2025. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse sat across from Patrick Witt Executive Director of the President’s Council of Advisers for Digital Assets, for a raw, high-level conversation that connected the dots between Washington, Ripple, and the next phase of crypto policy in America. Let's go over it 👇🏼 💥 “Bitcoin is not $XRP — and the market’s going to the tens of trillions.” Brad asked Witt point-blank where crypto is headed next. Witt didn’t hesitate: “Before the end of the year, the President wants the Market Structure Bill on his desk. After that, we’re talking about a market worth tens of trillions, with stablecoins proliferating across the globe.” Then came the quote that turned heads: “People need to understand — Bitcoin is not XRP. $XRP is not Ethereum. These are different assets serving different roles in the financial system.” He described it as the decade when blockchain and traditional finance finally fuse, adding: “The companies that will reshape the world of finance probably don’t even exist yet.” Brad grinned: “Ripple’s been building the foundation for that moment.” 🗽 From crackdown to clarity — the U.S. flips the script Witt didn’t sugarcoat the past: “The previous administration turned crypto into a political issue. They thought if they buried it, it would disappear. It didn’t — it just flourished somewhere else.” Now, he said, the mission is simple: “President Trump wants to make the United States the dominant player in crypto again.” And the playbook is already underway: ✅ The Genius Act — stabilized the stablecoin sector and restored confidence 🏛️ The Market Structure Bill — the next big one, targeting passage before year-end. 📈 Regulatory clarity = acquisition wave Brad brought up Ripple’s buying spree — GTreasury, Palisade, and more. Witt connected the dots: “During the Biden years, there were almost no big crypto acquisitions. This quarter alone? Ninety-five. That’s what happens when you have regulatory certainty. Traditional institutions finally feel safe stepping in.” He called it a “bullish indicator of maturity” — the moment when crypto stopped being speculative and started being structural. ⚙️ The White House Shutdown is Actually Helping Crypto When Brad mentioned the record government shutdown, Witt laughed: “It’s ironic, but it’s actually helping. Senators have fewer other meetings, so we’ve had more time to work with their staffs on crypto legislation.” Instead of slowing progress, the shutdown gave the White House’s crypto council more direct access to lawmakers. “We’re still full steam ahead — every day, morning to night,” Witt said. 🤝 On tribalism — “We either hang together, or we hang separately.” Witt warned that division is a bigger risk than regulation itself: “We’ll never get a perfect bill. But if we can get to 80% yes, we win. The industry needs unity — or it risks hanging separately.” Brad agreed instantly: “Exactly. Ripple’s whole mission has been about connection, not competition.” “Once this framework is in place, the floodgates open. The industry is going to scale into the tens of trillions — and the United States will lead it.” 🚀

NOW STREAMING: Stableminded S6 E3 ft Chris Maurice⚜️, CEO/Co-founder of Yellow Card Companies that wouldn't take Chris's calls 2.5 years ago are now the ones reaching out post-election asking how to access stablecoin payment rails. Yellow Card launched in Nigeria in 2019 as a Bitcoin exchange. Within 4 months of listing USDT, 99% of their volume shifted to stablecoins. That's when they realized: people don't want crypto. They want dollars that actually work. What Chris learned building payment rails across 16 countries in Africa, Southeast Asia, and South America: 0:07 - "If you can make it in Lagos, Nigeria, you can make it anywhere" 6:01 - The Taco Bell origin: selling Bitcoin at 7 college campuses 11:11 - COVID pivot: $1M/month to $1M/day overnight 19:54 - The stablecoin shift: 99% of volume moved to USDT in 4 months 21:27 - The realization: customers want payments, not crypto investment 31:19 - Why companies are finally reaching out post-election 31:41 - "Stablecoins are easy. Fiat, you have to get permission" 33:31 - Why they need 6+ banks in some countries for one payment 35:15 - "Nigeria and Botswana have as much in common as Italy and China" 44:39 - Why most corporates are buying the wrong infrastructure The land grab is on. Most providers are selling crypto infrastructure. What enterprises actually need are payment rails that work in markets where traditional banking fails.

Bruce Fenton: Bitcoin Was Meant to Replace the Banks, Not Join Them | Free The Money Ep. 27 Bruce Fenton, CEO of Chainstone Labs, joins me on Free the Money for a big-picture conversation about where the world is heading next. We dive into Bruce’s journey from Morgan Stanley and 30+ years in traditional finance into becoming one of Bitcoin’s earliest advocates, launching the legendary Satoshi Roundtable, and witnessing the rise of crypto from the front row. One of the most interesting parts of this conversation was hearing how Bruce has consistently been able to spot major technological shifts — from launching the first finance-related website on the internet in 1994, to recognizing the significance of Bitcoin back in 2012, to now studying the transformative impact AI will have on the world. We discuss the Fourth Turning, the block size wars, the changing culture of Bitcoin, and why Bruce believes the industry has drifted away from its original cypherpunk roots. We also dive into the expansion of financial surveillance through AML/KYC laws, the criminalization of privacy tools, and why developers building open-source privacy technology are increasingly being targeted by regulators and prosecutors. Bruce also shares thoughtful advice on independent thinking, creativity, challenging authority, and why taking action and staying curious may be more important now than ever before.

Sometimes you need a reminder of why you're even doing what you're doing. This video from Charles Hoskinson was that reminder for me today: I joined Cardano because I believe in its power to level the playing field for everyone. One system for everyone. Full inclusion. It's very easy to get distracted by the daily shenanigans of weird shitcoins, the latest ape NFT drop or, as a founder, the focus on profitability, generating revenue, increasing your runway, talking to investors and so on. But the truth is that the only thing that matters is solving real problems for real humans. From the ICO hype to the NFT hype to the DAO hype. There have been too many speculative bubbles that have overshadowed the fundamentals of crypto. We're here to change the world. Everything else is just fluff. Right now, the most used dApp across all blockchains has less than 1.5 Million active users/wallets a month. That number is a joke. It shows me that we have yet to achieve what we set out to do. It's time for crypto to prove itself; it's time to solve actual problems, to make the world fairer, to make the world better. I do believe that NFTs will play a role in this; that's why I'm building what I'm building. But we must de-couple from the purely speculative bubbles and finally focus on the use cases that really matter. Crypto can & will change the world. It's too important not to try.

Ep. 21 | Free The Money | Why Self-Custody Matters! Inside Edge In this episode of Free the Money, I sit down with Paul V Puey, CEO and co-founder of Edge. Paul explains that Edge’s goal is to make self-custody far more user-friendly by removing the friction around seed phrases and making it easy to manage, swap, and use your crypto all in one place. He argues that the real competition is not other wallets, but centralized exchanges like Coinbase and Binance, and that better UX is what can finally pull users away from those platforms and into tools they actually control. Paul and I also get into Zano, which is how we originally connected. He explains that Zano is often dismissed as just a Monero fork, but members of the Zano team actually contributed original code to CryptoNote before Monero launched. What stood out to Paul was not just Zano’s privacy model, but the added utility of private tokens on Zano. He also explains why Bridgeless was such an important piece: it allows assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum to be bridged into Zano’s private blockchain. On Zano, not only are the sender, receiver, and amount hidden, but because multiple private assets can exist on the chain, you also may not know which asset is being sent at all. Paul sees that as an additional layer of obfuscation that makes Zano especially compelling as a privacy layer for other assets. Beyond asset privacy, we also talk about network-level privacy and Edge’s integration with Nym. Paul breaks down how metadata leaks happen, why hiding your IP address and network activity matters, and why privacy is not complete if only the asset is private while the network layer remains exposed.

Having recently closed their $20M Series A, Ostium CoFounder and CEO kaledora joins us to share more on their grand vision in a new The Edge Podcast. What always resonated with me personally is Ostium started with serving us as native onchain investors, who have no interest in off-ramping but would like to get exposure to other non-crypto asset classes onchain 😇 "One problem we saw was in crypto, which was there was no way to use your onchain capital to go and trade things that were not crypto. It felt like everything that had been built to date was kind of prelude to what would ultimately be a much bigger market, in the sense that like all of the new market and incentive design was geared towards allowing people to transact trading crypto itself, which is you know great, but the ultimate end goal, like if this technology is gonna be extremely valuable, the ultimate end goal is enabling people to trade the like trillions of dollars worth of existing assets that are out there that should move on to blockchain rails. So we thought, one, that's gonna be the biggest market, that's the single biggest opportunity in crypto is enabling these rails to get people to trade stuff that's not crypto assets themselves. And secondly, if you already have your money onchain and you don't want to off-ramp, which I mean, are very good reasons why you wouldn't want to off ramp if you made your money in crypto, or you have a significant amount of your money onchain, you're completely constrained to just being able to invest in or trade cryptoassets. And we had a pretty strong conviction that there would be this sort of like tailwind or like rising set of people who had a majority or a large portion of their wealth onchain and would want to get exposure to other assets. We initially were very focused on commodities specifically. We had this strong conviction that commodity supercycle that's wound up being very true, but we extended beyond, I think, an unnecessary focus on a single asset class to FX, indices, single name stocks, and all of these very liquid global markets that ultimately there was no really easy way to access onchain. So that was sort the first problem. We thought in the next couple of years, this market's going to exist and we can build to capture that market. The second, and I think more important and ultimately far larger TAM, that we saw and problem that we wanted to solve, and this is one that we've been somewhat quiet on to date and have recently, I think, unveiled this larger plan as part of our recent fundraise, like Series A announcement, is a problem that we saw globally in what's called the CFD market. And for the uninitiated, CFDs are called, they're, contracts for difference or contract for differences. People put the 's' in different places. And they are basically, they are the little known fact among crypto people, but they are the dominant retail derivative in the world."

Having recently closed their $20M Series A, Ostium CoFounder and CEO kaledora joins us to share more on their grand vision in a new The Edge Podcast. What always resonated with me personally is Ostium started with serving us as native onchain investors, who have no interest in off-ramping but would like to get exposure to other non-crypto asset classes onchain 😇 "One problem we saw was in crypto, which was there was no way to use your onchain capital to go and trade things that were not crypto. It felt like everything that had been built to date was kind of prelude to what would ultimately be a much bigger market, in the sense that like all of the new market and incentive design was geared towards allowing people to transact trading crypto itself, which is you know great, but the ultimate end goal, like if this technology is gonna be extremely valuable, the ultimate end goal is enabling people to trade the like trillions of dollars worth of existing assets that are out there that should move on to blockchain rails. So we thought, one, that's gonna be the biggest market, that's the single biggest opportunity in crypto is enabling these rails to get people to trade stuff that's not crypto assets themselves. And secondly, if you already have your money onchain and you don't want to off-ramp, which I mean, are very good reasons why you wouldn't want to off ramp if you made your money in crypto, or you have a significant amount of your money onchain, you're completely constrained to just being able to invest in or trade cryptoassets. And we had a pretty strong conviction that there would be this sort of like tailwind or like rising set of people who had a majority or a large portion of their wealth onchain and would want to get exposure to other assets. We initially were very focused on commodities specifically. We had this strong conviction that commodity supercycle that's wound up being very true, but we extended beyond, I think, an unnecessary focus on a single asset class to FX, indices, single name stocks, and all of these very liquid global markets that ultimately there was no really easy way to access onchain.

5 Years in Crypto & 4 Years in Content Creation, Here’s How I’ve Grown In 2019, I was just a clueless college kid trying to change the AR/VR industry. I skipped college placements and grinded hackathons to find support for my idea. (Clip from those college days below!) Why AR/VR? After joining engineering college, one thing became clear: India is a rat race, best case scenario: life will force you into a stable growth trajectory, if you want asymmetrical growth, think outside the box. Pursue areas where there is no crowd maybe you’ll fail, or maybe you’ll change an industry. In 2020, we hit the jackpot. With Covid there was No more college to waste our time, we grew our startup, built a prototype, and sharpened our skills by freelancing AR/VR projects. By the end of 2020, we were so skilled that companies across India were flying us out to help with their projects. We were earning ₹2L/month each in our final semester of college. Our startup, Hovar, had 8 employees. Every single one went on to land 20+ LPA jobs after college. Most were just in their 2nd year when we hired them. In 2020, we got paid in Crypto for the first time. That’s when my crypto journey began, passive at first, since the startup kept me busy. In 2021, I had to move to Bangalore for a compulsory college internship. Hovar was paying me ₹2L/month for just 3 hours of work daily, but I saw no future in AR/VR. Apple’s headset was delayed, and interest in the industry was dying. It was time to say goodbye to the comfy ₹2L/month and find a new industry. Coincidentally, the crypto bull market had just begun. I searched YouTube and realized there was hardly any reliable, to the point source of up to date crypto education. That was the gap I needed. I started winding down Hovar and focused on content creation, while still working 9–6 at the office and grinding on personal projects till 2 AM every day. In April 2021, the second wave of COVID hit. I got lucky Youtube took off. Crypto was looking like a legit career. Hovar was gone, but now I had a full time job in Bangalore and a growing youtube channel. By October 2021, I took another leap. I quit my job to focus fully on content with daily lives, this was with less than 45K subs. Another BIG RISK! My only backup was 6 months of emergency fund. After November 2021, the crypto markets crashed. Money dried up, trading became impossible, and I had to take big losses just to save my portfolio. That phase taught me a lot about risk management and how it is easy to make profits in crypto but how hard it is to keep those profits. 2022 was a nightmare. Nobody was watching my videos. Crypto markets were a dumpster fire. I decided to double down, went deep into the space, made a plan to rebuild my portfolio, and invested everything I had. In 2023, the markets started to recover. My portfolio turned green. 2022, Bear markets had taught me lessons that many 2024 batch students are only learning now. I was consistently making profits with a locked in trade setup system (still use it today). My channel crossed 100K subs. It was time for the next step. I never got comfortable neither with Hovar, nor with my job, nor as a content creator. Building distribution had one goal: Build your own product. I began searching for what to build. Tried smaller services for crypto investors, but they couldn’t scale. Indians weren’t keen on crypto beyond niche group chats. Indian exchanges sucked. Billion-dollar giants existed, yet the experience was awful. I thought regulations were the reason but no. They had just grown too fast in 2021, and their tech wasn’t built to scale. That’s why Indian exchanges stutter compared to Bybit or Binance. But was this a problem worth solving? Not really, with heavily funded players and a tight knit ecosystem of people. I floated the idea of building my own exchange. Everyone said it was a terrible idea: bad regulations, no banking support, zero chance of funding, and most importantly why would an influencer, who could easily make 50–70% profits from exchange referrals, work this hard to build an exchange? It was indeed a huge risk. I would lose referral income (the main way influencers make money), burn through my savings, and go against giants. I passed. Risk seemed too high. But the audience changed my mind. Hundreds of comments daily complained about Indian exchanges withdrawal issues, trading engines failing during high volume, no real education beyond half-baked YouTube videos, and more. These problems were tough but solvable. Now I just needed the right people to build with people who wouldn’t second-guess the mission. In 2024, WazirX got hacked. Everyone realized Indian exchanges were not safe. The government wouldn’t help. A gap was forming. I had moved to Dubai, to meet passionate builder to help me build an exchange or at least show me a path and finally, after 6 months felt confident enough to start Fedhabit. Moved back to Banglore after 6 months, Announced the exchange to public in Jan 2025, now we’ve come a long way. It took a lot of effort: finding scalable tech, hiring people crazy enough to go against Goliaths with me, securing FIU registration, and finding a bank bold enough to take a chance on us. What a ride. With FedHabit Alpha successfully concluded, just a few steps remain before launch. And I’m told that’s when the real struggle begins. Let’s keep grinding. There is no gain without pain.

In Europe, DAC8 has turned “Know Your Customer” into “Kill Your Customer.” Today, Bull Bitcoin is officially opening the first legal front against DAC8. We have brought a case before France’s Conseil d’État, the country’s highest administrative court, to strike down the decree implementing DAC8 in French law. Since January 1, 2026, DAC8 has required crypto-asset service providers to systematically collect user and transaction data and subsequently report it to national tax authorities. These authorities will automatically exchange this information across the European Union and with tax administrations in other participating countries around the world. The result is a massive international financial-data honeypot linking people’s legal identities, home addresses and crypto activity, including information with no relevance whatsoever to taxation. This is grossly disproportionate and poses a serious threat to the physical safety of crypto holders and their families. Until now, most customer data remained within each crypto-asset service provider unless a suspicious transaction was reported or a competent authority made a lawful request. DAC8 replaces this model with the systematic reporting and cross-border sharing of highly sensitive financial information. The more authorities, civil servants, contractors, systems and foreign jurisdictions that have access to this data, the greater the risk that it will eventually be leaked, stolen, illegally accessed or sold to criminal organizations. At the same time, kidnappings and violent attacks against crypto holders and their families are rising, with leaked personal and financial data increasingly being used to identify and target victims. France has already suffered numerous breaches of highly sensitive government and financial databases. Given enough time, a database of this scale is almost certain to be breached. When that happens, criminal organizations will gain a ready-made map of who to target and where to find them. This is not responsible financial oversight. It is a recipe for disaster. We filed our initial application before the Conseil d'État on February 24, 2026, followed by a substantive legal brief setting out the full grounds of our case. This is not a symbolic gesture. It is a serious legal action, grounded in law and handled by experienced legal professionals. We are seeking the outright annulment of the French decree implementing DAC8’s crypto-asset reporting regime, on the grounds that automated mass financial-data collection violates fundamental human rights. If necessary, we are prepared to take this fight before the Court of Justice of the European Union and the French Constitutional Council. A victory in France could establish an important judicial precedent and provide a blueprint for other European actors seeking to fight DAC8 in their own countries. Someone has to draw a line in the sand. Bull Bitcoin is willing to do it. In the video, Bull Bitcoin founder FRANCIS ⚜️ BULLBITCOIN.COM takes the stage at BTC Prague to expose the threat DAC8 poses to the privacy and physical safety of crypto holders and explain why Bull Bitcoin has decided to lead this fight. Alongside this legal challenge, we are launching STOP DAC8: a complete, fully sourced resource for citizens, journalists and policymakers. More info 👇
