Then Griff Green, a member of the Arbitrum Security Council, explains some of the reasoning that went into the decision to freeze $71 million of the funds stolen by DPRK, how the surprise move worked technically, and why blockchains are immutable only by social consensus — and how even Bitcoin could be changed by social consensus.

Twenty months later, both cases are gone: the DOJ dismissed in March 2025, the SEC dismissed with prejudice — meaning it can't be refiled — in March 2026.  Nader tells Laura what actually happened, from the FBI raid on his Beverly Hills home and the clerical error that sent him to federal prison for a weekend, to the legal strategy that convinced both agencies to back off. He also revisits the BitClout celebrity era, the long call with Do Kwon before Terra launched, and the debanking tactic he calls ‘subpoena sniping.'

No dia 7 de abril de 2026, o presidente norte-americano Donald Trump deu um ultimato ao Irã que soou como a confissão antecipada de um crime de guerra. “Uma civilização inteira morrerá esta noite, para nunca mais ser ressuscitada”, foi a frase de Trump.O alardeado crime de guerra não aconteceu. Trump voltou atrás num cessar-fogo supostamente acordado com o Irã. Mas, existem vários outros crimes ao qual o republicado deveria responder.Ele bombardeou barcos civis na Venezuela, torpedeou uma fragata iraniana matando mais de cem homens e abandonou os sobreviventes à própria sorte. Além disso, tanto na Venezuela quanto no Irã, agiu sem o aval da ONU ou do Congresso americano, o que é ilegal.Mas quem diz o que é legal ou ilegal em termos de guerra?O episódio 158 de Escafandro mergulha nas leis sobre conflitos armados.

For a firm not known for fee competition, that surprised even close ETF watchers.  James Seyffart, senior analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence, has spent years tracking how wirehouses have slowly warmed to Bitcoin products. He joins Laura Shin to discuss what MSBT's launch says about where institutional crypto adoption is heading, whether Morgan Stanley's 16,000 advisors and $7 trillion in assets could meaningfully shift flows, and why Seyffart now sees inaction on crypto as the active choice, not the safe one, for portfolio managers.  Plus: Strategy's $14.5 billion loss, Saylor keeps buying, and why MSTR's S&P 500 question is now entirely a Bitcoin price story.
