Op 5 november mogen de Amerikanen naar de stembus en crypto lijkt een belangrijk onderwerp dit jaar. Dat blijkt ook uit een opiniestuk van Republikein Paul Ryan, dat recent verscheen in de Wall Street Journal. Hij schrijft dat stablecoins van de dollar kunnen dienen als wapen tegen China. Het klinkt in eerste instantie een beetje ver gezocht, maar zit er een kern van waarheid in zijn verhaal? Over dit nieuws spreken we met co-host Paul Buitink, Managing Director bij Holland Gold. Politicus Ryan is inmiddels actief voor het bedrijf Paradigm, een crypto-investeerder. Zou dat eigenlijk de reden zijn waarom hij crypto nu aanprijst? Hoe staan Republikeinen over het algemeen tegenover Bitcoin en crypto? Hebben zij een ander standpunt dan de Democraten? Verder is er nog een nieuwe ontwikkeling gaande in de wereld van de stablecoin. Er zijn inmiddels stablecoins op de markt die automatisch rente uitkeren aan de gebruiker. Grote namen zijn nu onder andere sUSDe en sDAI. Hoe betrouwbaar zijn deze projecten, zeker met de ondergang van TerraUSD nog in ons achterhoofd?  De prijsanalyse wordt deze week niet door Bert Slagter gedaan maar door The Rational Root. Hij is oprichter van BitcoinStrategyPlatform.com en werkzaam bij BTCDirect. Verwacht hij dat de Bitcoin prijs nog lang zijwaarts gaat? Mochten we naar een nieuwe all time high gaan, aan welke BTC prijs denkt hij dan?  Over de Ethereum ETFs gaan deze week veel geruchten rond. Kort voor het weekende werd SEC-voorzitter Gensler geciteerd in cryptomedia: de ETF's zouden ‘deze zomer' in de handel kunnen komen. Kort na het weekend sprak ETF-goeroe Eric Balchunas van Bloomberg op X uit dat het wel eens op 2 juli zo ver zou kunnen zijn. Hoe waarschijnlijk is het dat Eric Balchunas nu de juiste datum noemt? Wat betekent deze Ether ETF voor de Ethereum prijs?

This Day in Legal History: Libya Surrenders NationalsOn April 5, 1999, a pivotal moment in the annals of international law and aviation security unfolded as the Libyan government surrendered two of its nationals, Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi and Al Amin Khalifa Fhimah, to British authorities. These individuals were implicated in one of the most devastating acts of terrorism in history—the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, on December 21, 1988. This tragedy not only claimed the lives of 270 people, including 11 on the ground but also marked a profound moment of grief and outrage across the globe.The surrender of the accused to the British government was a culmination of years of diplomatic negotiations and international sanctions against Libya, reflecting the persistent efforts of the victims' families and international community to seek justice. The trial, which began on May 3, 2000, at a special court in the Netherlands, was notable for being held under Scottish law—a unique legal arrangement that underscored the international dimensions of the case.The court proceedings were meticulous and exhaustive, drawing upon a wealth of evidence that included forensic analysis, witness testimonies, and the intricate tracing of the bomb's components. After extensive deliberations, the verdict was pronounced: Al Amin Khalifa Fhimah was acquitted and returned to Libya, a decision that stirred a mix of reactions worldwide. Conversely, Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi was found guilty of murder and sentenced to life imprisonment, a conviction that would later be mired in controversy and calls for re-examination.Megrahi's conviction did not close the chapter on the Lockerbie bombing; it instead opened further debate and investigation, including questions about the evidence, the legitimacy of the trial, and the role of other potential co-conspirators. His release in 2009 on compassionate grounds, due to terminal cancer, sparked further international debate and diplomatic tensions.This day in legal history underscores the complexities of achieving justice in the wake of terrorism, the challenges of international cooperation in legal matters, and the enduring impact of the Lockerbie bombing on the fields of aviation security and international law.The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals is at the center of controversies involving attempts to move high-profile cases out of its jurisdiction, potentially preventing the court from ruling on matters of national importance. This situation arises as questions are raised about the appropriateness of filing certain legal challenges, particularly against government actions, in Texas courts. The ongoing scrutiny aims to determine if these cases genuinely belong in the jurisdictions where they were filed, amidst concerns over "judge shopping"—the practice of selecting courts thought to be favorable to the case.The Fifth Circuit is deliberating on whether to block lower court decisions that would transfer cases involving the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and Elon Musk's SpaceX to other federal courts. These moves are challenged under the premise that they could dilute the Fifth Circuit's ability to influence significant legal questions. Transfers are finalized once a case is docketed in the new jurisdiction, which then assumes authority, complicating any attempts to revert the transfer unless the new presiding judge consents.Appeals to prevent these transfers hinge on the high threshold for a writ of mandamus, a rare form of relief requiring clear evidence of a lower court's abuse of discretion. The scrutiny extends to the public perception of the Fifth Circuit's motivations, with some experts warning that aggressive efforts to retain cases could reflect poorly on the judiciary's impartiality.Historically, the Fifth Circuit has encountered issues with jurisdiction after cases were moved, as seen in a dispute involving a "ghost gun" company, highlighting the practical consequences of losing authority over transferred cases. The court's involvement in the SpaceX case, including a rare inquiry into the conduct of NLRB lawyers, further underscores the tension between maintaining jurisdiction and adhering to procedural norms.Judicial decisions on venue transfers, such as the recent ruling to move a lawsuit from Texas to Washington, D.C., reflect broader concerns about judge shopping and the integrity of case assignments. This ongoing saga emphasizes the complex interplay between legal strategy, jurisdictional authority, and the quest for a fair and appropriate venue for high-stakes litigation.Fifth Circuit Risks Losing Big Cases Amid Judge Shopping WorriesTerraform Labs and its co-founder Do Kwon are set to present their final arguments in a civil fraud trial, responding to charges from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that they deceived investors about the stability of their stablecoin, TerraUSD, and its underlying technology. The SEC's allegations include false claims about Terraform's blockchain being utilized in a popular Korean payment app, aiming to secure civil penalties and industry bans for Kwon and Terraform. Despite Kwon's absence from the trial due to his arrest in Montenegro on separate charges, Terraform's defense contends that the SEC's case relies on out-of-context statements and incentivized whistleblowers. The collapse of TerraUSD in May 2022, which the SEC attributes to manipulated market actions by Kwon and his company, resulted in a $40 billion investor loss and significant disruptions in the broader cryptocurrency market.Terraform Labs to make final pitch to jury as civil fraud trial wraps | ReutersA New York judge has scheduled a hearing for April 22 to scrutinize the $175 million bond posted by former U.S. President Donald Trump. This bond was a condition for pausing a $454 million fraud judgment against him while he appeals the decision. The New York Attorney General, Letitia James, raised questions about the sufficiency of the assets of Knight Specialty Insurance Company—the firm Trump used for the bond—prompting the need for proof that it can cover the bond if Trump's appeal fails. Trump's bond was facilitated by the insurance company owned by Don Hankey, a California businessman known for his dealings in subprime car loans. Faced with a "practical impossibility" of raising the full amount initially required for the bond, Trump's team secured Knight Specialty's services after an appeals court provided a lifeline by granting an extension and reducing the bond amount. Hankey, dubbed "the king of subprime car loans," has a reputation for lending to individuals with poor credit at high rates and aggressive debt collection practices. Despite his wealth, evidenced by his ranking on Forbes's lists, and his history of significant Republican donations and financial dealings with Trump-related properties through Axos Bank, concerns about the sufficiency of assets stem from the specialized, high-risk nature of his business ventures. Knight Specialty's involvement, driven by a blend of business decision-making and political support for Trump, underscores the complexities and potential risks of securing such a substantial bond, especially given the magnitude of Trump's legal and financial challenges.This development adds another layer to Trump's legal challenges, which include efforts to dismiss criminal charges in Georgia related to the 2020 election and classified records handling, as well as a New York criminal trial on hush money payments set to begin a week before the bond hearing. Trump, who faces four indictments amidst his presidential campaign, has pleaded not guilty in all criminal cases.The fraud judgment by Judge Arthur Engoron in February, which Trump is appealing, found him liable for significantly overstating his assets' value. Trump's legal team has dismissed concerns over the bond as baseless, while representatives from Knight Specialty Insurance have not commented on the matter. According to a court filing, Knight claims to have $539 million in assets, including $26.8 million in cash, as it faces scrutiny over its ability to support Trump's bond amidst his multifaceted legal battles.Trump's $175 million bond questioned by New York AG, hearing scheduled | ReutersNew York AG Questions if $175 Million Bond Insurer Can Save TrumpThat Guy Who Backed Trump's Bond? He May Not Have the MoneyHow did Trump pay his $175m fraud bond – and who helped him?This week's closing theme is by Robert Schumann.Robert Schumann stands as one of the quintessential figures in the Romantic era of classical music, renowned for his richly expressive compositions that spanned piano, chamber music, lieder (those are art songs), and orchestral works. Born in Zwickau, Saxony, in 1810, Schumann initially intended to pursue a career in law, following the wishes of his family–but we're all glad he didn't. His deep passion for music, coupled with a hand injury that thwarted his ambitions of becoming a virtuoso pianist, led him down the path of composition and music criticism. Schumann's compositions are celebrated for their emotional depth, innovative harmonies, and poetic inspirations, reflecting the complex inner world of an artist who struggled with mental health issues throughout his life.In 1841, a year marked by newfound confidence and creativity for Schumann, he composed his Symphony No. 1 in B-flat major, Op. 38, commonly known as the "Spring" Symphony. Inspired by the poem "Spring" by Adolf Böttger, the symphony bursts with the freshness, vitality, and optimism of the season. The work was Schumann's bold entry into the world of symphonic music, encouraged by his wife, the eminent pianist and composer Clara Wieck Schumann. It was completed in just four days in January, a testament to Schumann's intense creative fervor during this period.The "Spring" Symphony premiered on March 31, 1841, in Leipzig, conducted by Felix Mendelssohn, a close friend and champion of Schumann's music. The reception was overwhelmingly positive, with the symphony hailed as a vibrant and joyful ode to spring. Its success established Schumann's reputation as a master of the symphonic form, a remarkable feat for someone who had previously been known primarily for his piano works and songs.The opening movement, "Andante un poco maestoso – Allegro molto vivace," immediately sets the tone of awakening and renewal. It begins with a slow, majestic introduction that evokes the first stirrings of spring, before launching into the lively and exuberant main Allegro section. This movement is characterized by its rhythmic vitality and melodic inventiveness, featuring a recurring fanfare motif that Schumann described as the "call of awakening" for spring. The energy and optimism of the Allegro perfectly capture the essence of the season, making it a fitting introduction to a symphony that remains one of Schumann's most beloved works.Schumann's Symphony No. 1, with its vivid depiction of spring's arrival and rejuvenation, not only solidified his place among the great symphonists of the Romantic era but also offered a deeply personal reflection of the composer's own sense of renewal and hope. Through the "Spring" Symphony, and particularly its spirited Allegro, Schumann invites listeners to share in the joy and boundless possibilities of the season, making it a timeless piece that continues to enchant and inspire.Without further ado, Robert Schumann's Symphony no. 1 in B flat 'Spring', Op. 38, the fourth movement, the allegro.

This Day in Legal History: Britain Outlaws the Slave TradeOn March 25, 1807, a pivotal moment in legal history occurred with the passage of a British bill that effectively abolished the transatlantic slave trade. This landmark legislation, known as the Abolition of the Slave Trade Act, marked a significant victory for the abolitionist movement, which had long campaigned against the inhumane practice of trafficking enslaved individuals. Spearheaded by figures such as William Wilberforce and Thomas Clarkson, the act reflected growing societal awareness of the moral and ethical implications of slavery. Despite resistance from vested interests and economic concerns, the abolitionist movement succeeded in securing the passage of this transformative law, which prohibited British subjects from participating in the buying or selling of enslaved people. The enactment of the Abolition Act not only set a precedent for international efforts to combat slavery but also fueled momentum for broader emancipation movements worldwide. However, it's crucial to note that while the act abolished the trade in slaves, it did not immediately abolish slavery itself within the British Empire. Nonetheless, this pivotal legislation laid the groundwork for subsequent legal reforms aimed at eradicating the institution of slavery altogether. The passage of the Abolition of the Slave Trade Act stands as a testament to the power of legal action in advancing social justice and human rights, leaving an indelible mark on legal history and shaping the trajectory of abolitionist movements for generations to come. However it also reflects the half-measures and overall slow pace of change in expanding human rights that plagued the 19th century in a way that resonates to this day. Donald Trump faces a pressing deadline, with just hours remaining to cover a staggering $454 million civil fraud judgment, or risk the seizure of some of his prime properties in New York. The judgment, issued by Justice Arthur Engoron on February 16, accuses Trump of manipulating his net worth and property values to deceive lenders and insurers. Despite Trump's vocal denials and claims of innocence, the judgment poses a significant threat to his public image as a successful businessman, particularly as he seeks to secure the presidency once more. The looming financial challenges extend beyond this case, with Trump's campaign fundraising lagging behind his political rival's. The potential seizure targets iconic Trump properties such as Trump Tower and 40 Wall Street, as well as assets in Westchester County, including a golf course and a sprawling estate. Trump's legal team faces hurdles in securing a bond to cover the judgment, with 30 surety companies reportedly rejecting their requests. Meanwhile, Trump's financial woes are compounded by other legal battles, including criminal charges and defamation lawsuits. Despite recent developments, such as investor approval for a $5.7 billion deal involving his Truth Social platform, uncertainties remain regarding Trump's ability to meet his financial obligations. The civil fraud case, along with other legal challenges, continues to strain Trump's finances and raise questions about his future prospects.Trump has hours to cover $454 million judgment or risk property seizure | ReutersIf Congress compels ByteDance Ltd. to sell TikTok Inc. under threat of a US ban, the social media giant is likely to invoke First Amendment arguments, mirroring successful defenses in Montana. This potential lawsuit would confront free speech concerns against federal authority to restrict a foreign-owned platform used by over 150 million Americans. TikTok, armed with strong legal arguments, asserts its right to operate a speech-hosting platform, with users similarly contending that a ban infringes on their expression rights. A recent federal court ruling in Montana, blocking a state ban on TikTok, underscores the First Amendment challenges such legislation faces. Despite bipartisan support in the House, the bill mandating divestiture faces Senate uncertainty. While President Biden is inclined to sign, TikTok intends to exhaust legal options before considering divestiture. The debate highlights the clash between national security concerns and free speech rights, with lawmakers emphasizing China's potential data access and influence through TikTok. However, First Amendment experts argue that even legitimate national security concerns must withstand free speech scrutiny. Past legal precedents, including cases involving foreign ownership and speech restrictions, inform the ongoing debate over TikTok's fate.TikTok Free Speech Rights Offer a Bulwark Against a Forced SaleTerraform Labs and its founder, Do Kwon, are embroiled in a legal battle in Manhattan, facing charges from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for allegedly deceiving investors prior to the 2022 collapse of two cryptocurrencies. The SEC accuses them of misrepresenting the stability of TerraUSD and making unfounded claims about the use of Terraform's blockchain in a mobile payment app in Korea. Kwon, who is the brain behind TerraUSD and Luna, is under arrest in Montenegro, pending extradition to South Korea, following the $40 billion debacle caused when TerraUSD lost its peg to the dollar. The SEC's lawsuit further alleges that Kwon and Terraform Labs manipulated TerraUSD's price through third-party purchases to falsely showcase the algorithm's effectiveness. Despite these serious allegations, Kwon and his company refute any misconduct, claiming their statements have been misinterpreted by the SEC. A partial victory for the SEC came in December when Judge Jed Rakoff ruled in its favor, albeit dismissing some charges related to security-based swaps. The determination of damages against Terraform, which declared bankruptcy in January, remains pending, with the potential to exceed the company's current assets.Terraform Labs' civil fraud trial set to begin in New York | Reuters Get full access to Minimum Competence - Daily Legal News Podcast at www.minimumcomp.com/subscribe

The entrepreneur behind the $40bn collapse of crypto token TerraUSD, Do Kwon could be extradited to the US or South Korea to answer fraud charges following a court ruling in Montenegro. He sparked an international manhunt after fleeing an investigation in his native country of South Korea, following the sudden collapse of the TerraUSD and its sister token, luna. He was caught as he tried to leave Podgorica airport on a Costa Rican passport and sentenced to four months in prison in Montenegro. Kwon is sought by both the US and South Korea on fraud charges. So with the fall of another Crypto heavyweight, what does this do to the industry and should customers be concerned?

When cryptocurrencies TerraUSD and Luna collapsed, it wiped out $40 billion from the crypto market and set off investigations into the tokens' founder that sparked an international manhunt. WSJ reporter Alexander Osipovich joins host Zoe Thomas to explain how he was eventually found. Plus, another former crypto boss Sam Bankman-Fried has been convicted of fraud, but that's not the end of the saga.

Why is the US government attacking stablecoins? Welcome to the Cryptohunt Jam, where you learn – in just a minute or two a day – what is happening in crypto and other game-changing ideas. As always: In plain English. New York officials just told a crypto company to stop listing one of the largest stablecoins, Binance's BUSD. And to make things even more interesting, the Securities and Exchange Commission is planning to sue the same company for violating securities laws. That's a lot to unpack, so let's start from the beginning. This crypto company, called Paxos, is letting its users buy BUSD on their platform. BUSD is a stablecoin, which means that 1 BUSD tries to be almost exactly 1 US Dollar at any given time. So far, this seems like a really solid idea – so why would governments object to this? It helps to understand that their actions are well-intended: They are trying to protect average consumers from falling into investment traps or taking risks they don't fully understand. The fact that they are starting with stablecoins is no coincidence: Those are not as stable as the name may suggest. We've covered all the problems in past episodes, but in summary, there are two main concerns: Either the issuer of the stablecoin does not have the money to back it all up – as may be the case with Tether, and even BUSD – or the technology may not be able to handle a run on the bank, which brought down TerraUSD for example. And now the government is starting to wake up, and its attacking the weakest link in the chain: The companies that let people buy and sell those stablecoins. Because the stablecoins themselves live on blockchains, which are by their very nature basically impossible to shut down. And if you've always wondered: If a stablecoin is following a currency like the US Dollar closely, could the entire world move to the US Dollar thanks to them? Stay tuned for tomorrow, where we'll talk about that. This podcast is produced by Cryptohunt.it, the easiest place to learn all about Web3.

While the crypto market may seem chaotic to the outside observer, game theory can be used to analyze the underlying dynamics that lead to volatile price action. Jordi Alexander, Founder & CIO of Selini Capital, has a track record for utilizing game theory to predict crypto market events — including the collapse of the TerraUSD 'stablecoin' last year.  In this episode of The Scoop, Alexander unpacks how individual cryptocurrencies derive their value, and explains how game theory can be used to demystify crypto market behavior. According to Alexander, the value of cryptocurrencies comes largely from their potential for some future utility: “A lot of these tokens, including the big ones, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, they're options, and you have to understand what gives an option value . . . Ethereum is an option on all the future apps that can be built and use that platform . . . Bitcoin is a call option on it being an alternative to the fiat financial system.” In addition to economic predictions, game theory can also be applied to crypto in a geopolitical context when it comes to regulation. As Alexander explains, the United States unilaterally banning crypto would do little to stop the growth of the industry: "If they ban [crypto] over here, game theory stipulates that there's going to be so much demand that will get satisfied by another country providing it that maybe it's actually not good for the United States to ban and assume that this is going to go away because it's not going to stop crypto from developing — it'll just drive it to somewhere else."

We're doing a special episode on cryptocurrency this week and covering what occurred in May of 2022 when the world watched as one of the biggest projects imploded. Once valued at $400 billion, the project was known as TerraUST, a stablecoin that was going to transform the crypto market and the way that traditional payments would be made in the future. Instead, investors watched as its market value dropped by almost 99% within 24 hours. What led to this death spiral and more importantly, what does the future hold for crypto investors?

Sell-offs in the market for cryptocurrencies like bitcoin and ethereum continued this week. The rout followed another shock in May, when the value of terraUSD, a popular “stablecoin,” crashed. Stablecoins are supposed to have stable value tied to the U.S. dollar, which is why crypto traders use them to move money around this volatile market. But when terraUSD crashed, it wasn’t just traders who were hurt. Thousands of small investors were caught up in the meltdown, including people who put their money in Stablegains — a now-defunct crypto savings account company that promised returns of up to 15%.

At least that's the lesson that Paul Rosenzweig and I distill from the recent 11th Circuit decision mostly striking down Florida's law regulating social media platforms' content “moderation” rules. We disagree flamboyantly on pretty much everything else—including whether the court will intervene before judgment in a pending 5th Circuit case where the appeals court stayed a district court's injunction and allowed Texas's similar law to remain in effect.   When it comes to content moderation, Silicon Valley is a lot tougher on the Libs of TikTok than the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Instagram just suspended the Libs of Tiktok account, I report, while a recent Brookings study shows that the Chinese government's narratives are polluting Google and Bing search results on a regular basis. Google News and YouTube do the worst job of keeping the party line out of searches. Both Google News and YouTube return CCP-influenced links on the first page about a quarter of the time.               I ask Sultan Meghji to shed some light on the remarkable TerraUSD cryptocurrency crash. Which leads us, not surprisingly, from massive investor losses to whether financial regulators have jurisdiction over cryptocurrency. The short answer: Whether they have jurisdiction or not, all the incentives favor an assertion of jurisdiction. Nick Weaver is with us in spirit as we flag his rip-roaring attack on the whole fiel—a don't-miss interview for readers who can't get enough of Nick.  It's a big episode for artificial intelligence (AI) news too. Matthew Heiman contrasts the different approaches to AI regulation in three big jurisdictions. China's is pretty focused, Europe's is ambitious and all-pervading, and the United States isn't ready to do anything.  Paul thinks DuckDuckGo should be DuckDuckGone after the search engine allowed Microsoft trackers to follow users of its browser.  Sultan and I explore ways of biasing AI algorithms. It turns out that saving money on datasets makes the algorithm especially sensitive to the order in which the data is presented. Debiasing with synthetic data has its own risks, Sultan avers. But if you're looking for good news, here's some: Self-driving car companies who are late to the party are likely to catch up fast, because they can build on a lot of data that's already been collected as well as new training techniques. Matthew breaks down the $150 million fine paid by Twitter for allowing ad targeting of the phone numbers its users supplied for two-factor authentication (2FA) security purposes. Finally, in quick hits: Matthew recommends that we all get popcorn for: Spain's planned investigation of its intelligence services following a phone hacking scandal. Sultan and I call time of death for the Klobuchar bill regulating Silicon Valley self-preferencing. It was the most likely of all the Silicon Valley competition bills to pass, but election year tensions and massive lobbying campaigns by industry have made its path to enactment too steep. And Sultan notes that the Commerce Department has published with relatively little change its rule restricting exports of hacking tools.     Download the 409th Episode (mp3)   You can subscribe to The Cyberlaw Podcast using iTunes, Google Play, Spotify, Pocket Casts, or our RSS feed.

We've never seen a fall from grace quite like LUNA, whose price now sits below a fraction of a penny. In this video, I take a look at the Terra LUNA crash and TerraUSD's downfall. I'll break down what led to the Terra crash and who could be behind it. I'll explain the rise of Terra founder Do Kwon and how Terra and its UST stablecoin were built. Then I'll get into the gritty details of the collapse of everything in Terra's ecosystem. Stay tuned for the latest Terra LUNA theories and the hard evidence.

"Several exchanges in the industry fuel bubbles for a quick buck as well. If something starts to get momentum, including meme coins like DOGE or SHIB that don't realistically have a substantial future, they promote those coins to their users, which can suck retail investors into buying the bubble top. Plus, a lot of Youtube and TikTok influencers pump small coins, and use their audience as exit liquidity." - Lyn Alden For those of you who may be unaware, there was a recent blow up of a deca-billion dollar LUNA and TerraUSD algorithmic stablecoin. Essentially the entire market capitalization of UST and LUNA vanished in a matter of hours in a spectacular economic death spiral. How did this happen and what was the source of such an incredible risk of what had recently become one of the most promising "crypto" projects in recent months?

The consumer price index for April came in at 0.3% on a month-over-month basis and 8.3% year over year, exceeding estimates on both measures and establishing once again that inflation is going to stick around at elevated levels for the foreseeable future.
