30th Dec: Blockchain DXB Podcast
🟠 Bitcoin - Upgrade With Covenants 🚨 Do Kwon's U.S. Extradition ⚡Bitwise Files for BTC Standard ETF 🤔 Memecoins $40B lost in Dec
🟠 Bitcoin With Covenants - "Make Bitcoin Magical Again,"
Taproot Wizards, led by Eric Wall, Udi Wertheimer, & Francisco Alarcon, aim to enhance Bitcoin’s functionality with the OP_CAT protocol. This upgrade would enable advanced features like covenants for BTC-stablecoin swaps, DeFi applications, and cross-chain bridges, making Bitcoin more versatile. While offering exciting opportunities, challenges such as security risks and community resistance must be addressed to ensure successful implementation.
Check out the Blockchain DXB episode we share our commentary on this such as OP_CAT protocoloOriginally introduced by Bitcoin's creator, Satoshi Nakamoto. We also discuss the Positives & of the OP_CAT Protocol and Covenants
Terraform Labs creator Do Kwon will be extradited to the U.S., Montenegrin Justice Minister Bojan Božović
Official statement here https://shorturl.at/1I9cv
🚨 Montenegro's Justice Minister Bojan Božović has approved Terraform Labs founder Do Kwon's extradition to the U.S. to face criminal charges related to the 2022 collapse of the Terra/Luna stablecoin system. Both the U.S. and South Korea had sought Kwon's extradition, but the decision followed Montenegro's Supreme Court ruling in favour of the U.S. request. Kwon, arrested in Montenegro in 2023 for passport forgery, has contested his extradition for over a year. Meanwhile, in the U.S., the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission recently settled over LUNA-related violations with Jump Crypto’s subsidiary, Tai Mo Shan, with a $123 million settlement.
‼️Bitwise Inc has filed for approval to launch the Bitcoin Standard Corporations ETF, designed to track companies holding over 1,000 BTC as a reserve asset. The fund aims to provide investors exposure to major BTC-holding companies like MicroStrategy, Marathon, and Tesla without directly owning individual stocks. The ETF would invest at least 80% of its assets in these companies. While limited by the small number of firms meeting the criteria, this move reflects the growing interest in corporate BTC adoption. Competitor Strive recently filed a similar proposal, emphasizing Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and global economic challenges.
🔴Memecoins surged to $137B in December, then dropped to $92B, losing over $40B. More info via Cointelegraph here https://shorturl.at/afRDM
- Massive Gains: Some traders saw extraordinary profits, like a $3,000 investment turning into $46M earlier in the year and a $27 dormant wallet achieving a 1,900,000x return.
- Memecoin momentum slowed as demand decreased in December.

‼️ Russia has imposed a six-year ban on crypto mining in 10 regions, effective January 1, 2025, to address high energy consumption. Regions like Dagestan and Chechnya were chosen based on energy demand, with adjustments possible. The ban includes mining pools and considers electricity subsidies, with temporary restrictions in other areas during peak demand. While crypto mining was legalized in 2024, Russia prohibits domestic crypto payments but allows cross-border use to evade sanctions, reflecting its focus on energy management and regulation.

24th Dec: Blockchain DXB Podcast
🟢BRICS & BTC 🚨FBI, DC3, and NPA Expose North Korean Hackers 🟠Metaplanet & MicroStrategy buy more BTC ❗HyperLiquid USDC outflow (HACK)
🟢BRICS & BITCOIN - Opinion by Blockchain DXB / Bitcoin DXB (more info in today's episode)
- UAE strengthens ties with BRICS, particularly Russia, and focuses on diversifying its economy, Bitcoin emerges as a potential neutral settlement layer for the bloc. Amid efforts to reduce reliance on the U.S. dollar, Bitcoin's decentralized nature offers secure, transparent trade solutions. Layer-2 tools like the Lightning Network enable fast, low-cost transactions, while the Liquid Network supports tokenization and efficient settlements.
By leveraging Bitcoin, BRICS could enhance trade between members like UAE, Russia, China, and India, aligning with the bloc’s vision for financial sovereignty and a decentralized global economy.
🤨The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), United States Department of Defense Cyber Crime Center (DC3), and Japan’s National Police Agency (NPA) have identified North Korean cyber actors, known as TraderTraitor (also tracked as Jade Sleet, UNC4899, and Slow Pisces), as responsible for stealing $308 million in cryptocurrency from Japan-based DMM in May 2024. The attack began with social engineering targeting a Ginco employee, leading to the compromise of their system. This allowed the hackers to manipulate a DMM transaction and steal 4,502.9 BTC. Info here https://shorturl.at/oEz4W
🔸 MicroStrategy bought 5,200 BTC for $561M, bringing its holdings to 444,262 BTC worth $42B, while debuting in the Nasdaq-100. Despite the milestone, its stock fell 6% to $342 amid Bitcoin's dip to $93,700 after peaking at $108,000. Analysts note risks in MicroStrategy's Bitcoin-heavy strategy, though its inclusion in the index may boost trading volume by 20%-40%.selling 1.3 million shares over the past week,. SEC filing here https://shorturl.at/6dfr8
🔸 Metaplanet purchased 619.7 BTC for $60.6M, raising its total Bitcoin holdings to 1,761.98 BTC, valued at $168M. The acquisition was funded through stock rights issuances and zero-coupon bonds as part of its Bitcoin Treasury Operations. The latest acquisition marks the largest Bitcoin purchase to date. Info via their X/ Twitter ID
❗ HyperLiquid, a top on-chain perpetual exchange, saw a $60 million USDC outflow as North Korean-linked hackers reportedly tested the platform. Addresses tied to DPRK incurred $700,000 in losses while probing for vulnerabilities, according to tracker Tay. via CoinDesk https://shorturl.at/5OjBe
- Despite the outflow, the platform's deposit bridge holds $2.2 billion USDC. HyperLiquid, which leads with 50% of on-chain perpetual trading volume, recently launched its HYPE token, surging 600% to a $10 billion market cap.

Welcome to The AI Takeover Series!

Episode Description:
In today’s Blockchain DXB Podcast, we dive deep into the recent market movements, driven by the Federal Reserve's FOMC meeting and the subsequent announcements from Fed Chair Jerome Powell. The markets have been experiencing some turbulence, but we strongly believe that this moment signals an opportunity for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency to rise in the long run. Let’s unpack everything that’s happened and why the mainstream media’s coverage may not be telling the full story.

🔍 We also tackle the controversy surrounding BlackRock's narrative on Bitcoin's fixed supply and answer the burning question: Can the 21 Million Bitcoin cap be changed? The short answer is YES, but will it actually change? Tune in to understand what factors would drive such a change, including miners, exchanges, and users.

📉 Bitcoin ETF Outflows – The cryptocurrency market has seen record outflows of $671.9 million from Bitcoin ETFs, causing Bitcoin to drop 10% to $96,000. We discuss why this is happening and what it means for the market’s future.
