The fact that the Islamic Republic has murdered 20,000 unarmed Iranian civilians and not a single European country has cut ties with this terrorist regime is pathetic.

Communism was tried in hundreds of places and it failed miserably every time. Javier Milei's libertarianism was tried in Argentina and it worked nearly immediately.

Like many of you I have been watching what is happening in Iran. The courage of the people there is unmistakable. They are asking for dignity. They are asking to live freely and safely. I admire their bravery and I stand with them. In moments like this there are no complex

Crypto not happy w/ market structure right now. Blockchain Association CEO Summer Mersinger says: “What is threatening progress is not a lack of policymaker engagement, but the relentless pressure campaign by the Big Banks to rewrite this bill to protect their own incumbency.”

Iran is not Syria. Iran is not Libya. And treating it as either is a category error. Those countries collapsed because the state was the regime. Remove the ruler, and the country dissolved with him. Iran is the opposite. Iran is a nation first. Its national identity does not

If you have ever passionately posted about women’s rights, human rights, occupation, abuse, the killing of children or the safety of a people and you are not speaking on Iran , you are a performative fraud.

I agree with @brian_armstrong . No bill is worse than a bad bill, and this one stinks.
After reviewing the Senate Banking draft text over the last 48hrs, Coinbase unfortunately can’t support the bill as written. There are too many issues, including: - A defacto ban on tokenized equities - DeFi prohibitions, giving the government unlimited access to your financial

14/Iran's judiciary chief said this week: "If we want to do something, we have to do it quickly... two months later it doesn't have the same effect." He's talking about executing the 18,000+ detained. The window is NOW.

13/The activist left that mobilized millions for Gaza is largely silent. Iranian protesters don't fit the "anti-imperialist" framework. Fine. We don't need them. Voluntary action by people who give a damn can do what states and movements won't.

12/The bazaaris who helped build the Islamic Republic in 1979 are now in the streets against it. Analysts are saying the regime may not survive 2026. What they lack isn't courage. It's infrastructure.

9/DOCUMENTATION: The regime lies. They'll say protesters were terrorists, deaths were accidents, videos fabricated. Blockchain timestamping proves evidence existed. Distributed storage (IPFS, Arweave) makes it harder to delete. Every video that leaks out is evidence for

8/FINANCIAL RAILS: Iranians are cut off from global finance by sanctions. Activists can't receive support through normal banking. Crypto provides permissionless value transfer. Bitcoin and stablecoins are already being used despite legal ambiguity.

6/COMMUNICATION: Starlink bypasses terrestrial infrastructure. Mesh networks (Briar, Bridgefy) let phones talk peer-to-peer without cell towers. Every terminal that gets into Iran right now is potentially saving lives.
