Crypto Questions: Breaking down new regional digital asset transaction acts, what they mean for self-custody wallets, and the upcoming industry pushback against surprise transaction fees.

"Mezglu kalendārs" ir tapis kā veltījums Valdai un Zigmundam Skujiņiem. Autore ir viņu meita Inga Skujiņa, tekstilmāksliniece, kas stelles nolika malā, lai daudz sava laika veltītu tēva – rakstnieka Zigmunda Skujiņa –pēdējiem mūža gadiem. Un šai grāmatai. "Ļoti strauji mainījās laikmeta krāsas. Nebija šaubu, ka vecie laiki aiziet. Nav runa par padomju laikiem, Latvijas valsts laikiem, krievu caru vai vācu muižnieku laikiem. Vecie laiki šoreiz ir 35 gadi kopš Latvijas otrā valstiskuma atzīšanas. Viss liecināja, ka uz priekšu, visticamāk, nebūs ne valstu, ne tautību, ne nacionālu vērtību. Būs kaut kas cits", tā Inga Skujiņa raksta grāmatas "Mezglu kalendārs" ievadā, pieminot arī, ka grāmatas tapšanā būtiska loma ir mākslas zinātniecei Ingrīdai Burānei. Radio mazā lasītava studijā tiekas ar Ingrīdu Burāni, bet ar Ingu Skujiņu sazinās viņas lauku mājās. Lasot šo grāmatu par cilvēkiem un lietām, kas veido mūžu, rodas sajūta ne tikai par Ingas vecākiem, bet par paaudzi, par pārmaiņām, "jaunām dekorācijām" un Rīgu, kuras ielās rakstnieks Zigmunds Skujiņš bija neapšaubāms elegances etalons. Ingas Skujiņas "Mezglu kalendāru" izdevis "Jāņa Rozes apgāds". Raidījumu atbalsta:

Strategy's recent sale of 32 Bitcoin came with unusual framing: Michael Saylor said the purpose was to "inoculate the markets." Glenn Cameron, Global Head of Institutional at Onramp Bitcoin, reads that word as preparation for larger Bitcoin sales ahead, walks through the STRC prospectus and the pressure points (Strategy now trading at 84% of NAV, the cash reserve cut to roughly seven months after redeeming a 0% convertible note, the board-suspendable dividend), and lands on the sharpest argument: 83% of STRC holders are retail investors sold a product marketed as "a high yield bank account" that's structurally junior equity on a volatile Bitcoin company.---

Cordiant Digital Infrastructure (LSE:CORD) chairman Steven Marshall and CFO Andrew Ewe joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss annual results, portfolio performance and growth opportunities. The company delivered a 16.3% total NAV return, with NAV per share rising to 146p. Revenue grew 9.9% and EBITDA by 7.8%, supporting a further dividend increase. Since IPO, Cordiant has deployed £795 million into digital infrastructure assets, generating a 14% annualised NAV total return over five years. The company's recent inclusion in the FTSE 250 is expected to broaden its investor base. Marshall highlighted data centre growth at Czech Republic-based CRA, where the Prague Gateway facility could scale from 26MW to 100MW. "The demand for our assets continually grows," he said, "which gives the wind at our backs in terms of growing revenues, EBITDA and cash flows." The pair also covered the integration of BT Ireland's fibre assets into Speed Fibre, expansion of Emitel's mobile tower portfolio, and opportunities in 5G broadcasting, emergency warning systems and smart city infrastructure.

Foresight Environmental Infrastructure (LSE:FGEN) investment manager Charlie Wright joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss annual results, dividend growth and the outlook for its diversified environmental infrastructure portfolio. FGEN raised its dividend for a 12th consecutive year, with a FY27 target of 8.04p per share and dividend cover of 1.25x. Despite modest NAV per share slippage to 105.2p, the portfolio delivered a positive NAV total return of 6.2%, with shareholders receiving 7.96p in dividends over the period. Wright emphasised that growth is coming from within the existing portfolio rather than new acquisitions. "The exciting thing for us is that the opportunities are really coming from assets we already own," he said, pointing specifically to the anaerobic digestion portfolio and CNG Fuels platform, where biomethane adoption by HGV fleets is gaining momentum. The interview also touched on carbon capture investments, progress at Glasshouse, and operational developments at the Rjukan aquaculture facility in Norway. Management remains focused on operational performance, growth asset ramp-up and capital recycling to support long-term shareholder value.

Šī saruna ir par to, ko cilvēks var darīt savā labā, ja viņam ir raksturīgi atkal un atkal iestrēgt vienos un tajos pašos ieradumos, no kuriem jau sen grib tikt laukā. Piemēram, smēķēšanā, pārlieku saldumu ēšanā, nesavaldībā vai kliegšanā uz tuviniekiem, kārtējā pārslodzē darbā.Marija Ābeltiņa skaidroja trīs sistēmas, kurās mēs funkcionējam: izdzīvošanu, dzīšanos pēc mērķiem un nomierināšanos, par kuru visbiežāk aizmirstam. Tieši trešās sistēmas neizpratne noved pie pārslodzes un ieradumiem, kas no tās izriet.Viņa parādīja, kāpēc gribasspēks vien nepalīdz un kā jaunu rīcību nostiprināt soli pa solim, izmantojot kognitīvi biheiviorālās terapijas pieeju, pašapbalvošanu un atkārtotu apņemšanos.Marija Ābeltiņa ir klīniskā psiholoģe, psiholoģijas zinātņu doktore un grāmatas "Profesionālā izdegšana" autore. Viņa ir kognitīvi biheiviorālās terapijas speciāliste un daudzus gadus vadījusi biedrības "Skalbes" padomi.Ja šī vai kāda cita Cilvēkjaudas saruna tev noderēja vai bija interesanta, uzsauc Cilvēkjaudai virtuālo “kafiju”.

Jen za 100,-/měsíc. https://open.spotify.com/episode/3NWDdclBFk4GUSwgVlal0Q?si=bc031e72a101465bTohle je deep dive do vědy za klimatem, jeho změnou a vývojem během planetární historie.Klima se dnes často láme mezi dvě špatné strategie. Na jedné straně panika. Na druhé cynismus. Tenhle rozhovor jde jinudy.S Danielem Kortusem rozebíráme, co vlastně znamená klimatická změna v měřítku planety, civilizace i každodenního života.Proč je dnešní situace bezprecedentní ne proto, že by se klima nikdy neměnilo, ale proto, že jsme během pár generací otevřeli geologickou banku uhlíku, která se jinak hýbe v horizontech milionů let.Proč každá desetina stupně dává smysl. Proč technologie nejsou zázračné řešení, ale zároveň ani není pravda, že se nic nedaří. A proč největší problém klimatu možná není jen fyzický, ale i psychologický a komunikační: je příliš velké, příliš dlouhé a příliš abstraktní na to, aby bylo přirozeně na prvním místě.Parťák dílu:Vilgain - Aktin.cz a tady je náš link essentials Aktin.cz/bwa pro slevu zadej kód BWA a objednej si kvalitní produkty s čistým složením.

Michael Saylor controla más del 3% de todos los bitcoins que existen, unos 700,000 BTC en la tesorería de Strategy. Esta es la historia de cómo lo hizo y por qué su máquina financiera es tan brillante como peligrosa. En este clip desarmamos el flywheel de Strategy pieza por pieza: del colapso del 99% en el dotcom que marcó a Saylor para siempre, a la deuda convertible al 0% que lo convirtió en el mayor acumulador de Bitcoin del planeta. ▸ El crash de 2000 que forjó su aversión patológica a la fragilidad financiera ▸ Por qué anticipó a las Magnificent 7 desde 2008 (y por qué eso lo llevó a Bitcoin) ▸ Cómo funciona la deuda convertible al 0% y el arbitraje detrás de la tesorería ▸ El flywheel: emitir acciones sobre NAV para comprar más BTC — y cuándo deja de hacer sentido ▸ El conflicto de interés que nadie puede ignorar al escuchar a Saylor ▸ Por qué solo habrá un "MicroStrategy" por activo digital ─ LA INFORMACIÓN DE ESTE PODCAST NO ES UNA RECOMENDACIÓN DE INVERSIÓN.

In this episode, we are joined by Morley Conn, Director of Sales and Strategy, ETF Services at Scotia Global Banking and Markets, for a deep dive into the mechanics of the ETF ecosystem. With more than 30 years of experience across equities, foreign exchange, and money markets, Morley pulls back the curtain on the creation and redemption process, ETF liquidity, block trading, market making, and the often-overlooked infrastructure that allows ETFs to trade efficiently every day. We explore how authorized participants and market makers facilitate liquidity, why ETF liquidity is driven by the underlying holdings rather than trading volume, and how large institutional ETF trades are executed. Morley also explains the differences between Canadian and U.S. ETF markets, discusses common misconceptions investors have about ETF trading, and shares practical advice for retail investors seeking better execution. This conversation offers a rare look at the operational machinery behind one of the most important innovations in modern investing.

No bārenes par Krievijas ķeizarieni - par Katrīnu I aizvien valda dažādas leģendas un pat vēsturnieki strīdās, kāda ir bijusi carienes izcelsme un dzīve. Kā Ernsta Glika audžumeita nonāca līdz impērijas tronim? Leģendāra personība, kuras dzīves gājums bijis gluži kā meksikāņu ziepju operā - vai vismaz tā gribētos domāt, jo nezināmā par šo biogrāfiju aizvien ir daudz. Meitene, kas dzīvi sāka kā Marta Skavronska, beidza kā Krievijas ķeizariene. Kas bija šī sieviete un kāda bija viņas izcelsme? Raidījumā Zināmais nezināmajā vērtē Latvijas Universitātes Vēstures institūta pētniece, vēstures doktore Mārīte Jakovļeva un mācītājs, Ernstam Glikam veltītas grāmatas autors Andris Pešelis. Daudz nezināmā un leģendu ir par šo personību, atzīst raidījuma viesi. "Ja mēs runājam par meiteni Martu, jāsaka, ka nezināmā ir ļoti daudz. Ja mēs runājam par ķeizariene Katrīna Pirmo, tad tā jau ir vēsturiska persona, zināma, uz politiskās un vēsturiskās skatuves esoša un un labi apskatāma, bet arī viedokļi par viņu kā ķeizarieni arī ir ļoti atšķirīgi," atzīst Mārīte Jakovļeva. Interpretāciju ir daudz par viņas izcelsmi, vai tiešām bija Skavronska, kā nokļuva Glika mājās, nav zināms, kur viņa ir dzimusi, kas bijuši viņas vecāki. Par to ir daudz versiju. Pat populārā vietne Vikipedija dažādas valodās piedāvā dažādas versijas par to, kur ir dzimusi Marta Skavronska. "Nav arī skaidrības par viņas etnisko piederību. Mums gribās domāt, ka viņa bija latviete, igauņiem tikpat labi uzskata, ka viņa bija igauniete vai vai somiete. Baltkrievi uzskata, ka viņa ir cēlusies no Minskas, respektīvi, no baltkrieviem, lietuvieši - no lietuviešiem. Visi velk deķīti uz savu pusi, un nevienam nav konkrēti dokumentētas argumentācijas," turpina Mārīte Jakovļeva.

Glenn Cameron, Global Head of Institutional at Onramp Bitcoin, reads that word as preparation for larger Bitcoin sales ahead. Glenn traces the pressure points. Strategy is trading at 84% of its Bitcoin value, making new equity issuance dilutive rather than accretive on a Bitcoin-per-share basis. Its cash reserve has been cut to roughly seven months after the company redeemed a 0%-interest convertible note. And STRC, the perpetual preferred stock Saylor has marketed as "a high yield bank account," carries a dividend the board can suspend for any reason. The episode's sharpest argument: 83% of STRC holders are retail investors sold a product that resembles a bank account but behaves like junior equity on a volatile Bitcoin company. No maturity, no FDIC protection, no right to redeem. Host: Laura Shin, Host / Unchained Guests: Glenn Cameron, CFA - Global Head of Institutional at Onramp Bitcoin Timestamps
Billy Williams was the United States Attorney for the District of Oregon from 2015-2021. Billy is a non-affiliated voter (“NAV”) and is a proponent of open primaries in Oregon. Billy talks about why he's a NAV and why he is not registered as an Independent. He explains why he thinks we need open primaries in Oregon. He also talks about Oregon's status as a sanctuary state and other issues related to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (“ICE”). Billy has spent the majority of his life in public service, beginning with work for the Metropolitan Public Defender and then as a law clerk for the US Attorney's Office for the District of Oregon. He was later hired by the Multnomah County DA's Office, where he worked for eleven years. He served in the U.S. Attorney's Office for eighteen years. Billy has had the unusual distinction of serving as U.S. Attorney under both Democrat and Republican presidential administrations. Billy's service as the acting U.S. Attorney for the District of Oregon began with a telephone call from Eric Holder, the U.S. Attorney General in the Obama Administration. Later, Billy was formally nominated by President Trump in 2017 to be the U.S. Attorney for the District of Oregon and confirmed by the Senate. His service spanned the longest federal government shutdown in the US; the Malheur Wildlife Refuge Occupation; the COVID-19 pandemic; the killing of George Floyd; and the Portland riots of 2020, which were primarily directed at the federal courthouse, where Billy's office was located. Billy has served in various volunteer capacities, including on the Board of Directors for Urban League of Portland and as an instructor for the Portland Police Detective's Academy. He is currently on the Leadership Council of the Foundation for Drug Policy Solutions (check out the Rational in Portland podcast episodes with Dr. Kevin Sabet, the President and CEO of the Foundation for Drug Policy Solutions, who served as the only bipartisan drug policy advisor to three U.S. presidential administrations, and Tom Wolf, who serves with Billy on the Leadership Council of the Foundation). Billy was part of the Border and Immigration Subcommittee under President Obama. Billy has also served on the Native American Issues Subcommittee; Civil Rights Subcommittee; Border and Immigration Subcommittee; Domestic Terrorism Executive Committee; the Ninth Circuit Fairness Committee; and as chair of the Attorney General's Marijuana Working Group.
Spojené státy se připravují na oslavu 250 let od svého vzniku. Program, který má vyvrcholit ve Washingtonu 4. července ale zatím není kompletní. Oslovení umělci odříkají účast, protože oslavy podle nich nebudou nadstranické. Navíc se zdá, že v mnohém splývají s akcemi spojenými s životním jubileem současného prezidenta Donalda Trumpa. Lze vůbec v dnešních Spojených státech uspořádat oslavy vzniku USA, které by zemi nerozdělily, ale sjednotily?Host: Jiří Pondělíček - amerikanista a komentátor platformy Téma 21Článek a další informace najdete na webu Seznam ZprávySledujte nás na sociálních sítích X, Instagram, Threads nebo Bluesky.

Zeitgeist #24 s teologem Františkem Štěchem o golemech, nové encyklice Lva XIV. a lidství v éře umělé inteligence z perspektivy římskokatolické církve i dalších náboženství.Velké jazykové modely a generativní AI promlouvají s rostoucí intenzitou do mnoha sfér našeho života. Ani je nemusíte přímo používat, ale s jejich výtvory se nejspíš pravidelně setkáváte, ať jste si toho vědomi nebo ne. Lidem jakoby se podařilo splnit starý sen o vytvoření úslužného golema. Namísto hlíny ovšem „šém" vložili do korpusu lidských textů a vznikla entita, která s námi komunikuje a zvládne imitovat projevy člověka včetně emocí. Navíc je schopná také samostatně jednat jako AI agent v čemž se pravděpodobně bude dále zlepšovat. Bezesporu jde o významný milník v historii lidstva a možný začátek další průmyslové revoluce. Papež Lev XIV. svou první encykliku, kterou vydal rok po zvolení věnuje do značné míry právě vzestupu AI a ochraně lidství.„Takzvané umělé inteligence neprodělávají žádné zkušenosti, nemají tělo, necítí radost ani bolest, nedospívají prostřednictvím vztahů a z vlastního nitra neví, co znamená láska, práce, přátelství nebo odpovědnost. Nemají ani morální vědomí, protože nerozlišují mezi dobrem a zlem, nechápou konečný smysl situací ani nenesou odpovědnost za důsledky. Mohou napodobovat jazyk, chování a analytické schopnosti nebo dokonce simulovat empatii a porozumění, ale nerozumí tomu, co produkují, neboť jim chybí emoční, vztahová a duchovní perspektiva, skrze kterou lidé nabývají moudrosti. I když jsou tyto nástroje popisovány jako schopné „učení“, dělají to jinak než člověk. Nejedná se o zkušenost těch, kteří se nechávají formovat životem a postupem času rostou prostřednictvím rozhodnutí, chyb, odpuštění a věrnosti,“ píše se mimo jiné v listu Magnifica Humanitas, jímž se papež obrací především na katolické biskupy.Jak nejvyšší představitel římskokatolické církve AI vnímá? V čem vidí příležitost a v čem nebezpečí? Co může znamenat fakt, že na představení encykliky vystoupil také spoluzakladatel společnosti Anthropic Chris Olah, která vyvíjí model Claude? Proč si papež v textu bere na pomoc i rady čaroděje Gandalfa? Nesouvisí to náhodou s firmou pojmenovanou po Vidoucích kamenech z Pána prstenů J. R. R. Tolkiena? A v čem je specifický vztah světových náboženství a jejich tradic s AI? Odpovídá František Štěch z Evangelické teologické fakulty UK. Připravil a moderuje Štěpán Sedláček.

Cesar Estrada is the Head of Private Markets at Arcesium, the data and operations platform built to help private market firms scale their reporting, analytics, and oversight at an enterprise level.In today's conversation, Cesar walks us through Arcesium's role in private markets from its beginnings as a company spun out of DE Shaw.
