The founder of the bankrupt crypto exchange FTX stated he might file for a retrial after the decision on his appeal is made. Sam Bankman-Fried has withdrawn his request for a new trial, expressing skepticism about receiving a fair hearing, but he may revive this motion after his direct appeal and request for reallocation are considered. The FTX founder, who is serving a 25-year sentence after being convicted on seven counts of fraud and conspiracy, mentioned he largely prepared his case himself while at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, with limited editorial assistance from his parents and a New York attorney. His retracted statement, initially filed by his mother citing alleged new evidence, comes amid the review of his broader appeal claiming that his trial was "fundamentally unfair," which is currently being considered by the U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals. $FTT

In 2023, a young Ukrainian journalist deliberately went to where most feared to even approach — to the temporarily occupied territory, to gather evidence about secret places of detention created by Russia. Victoria Roshchyna investigated the system of so-called filtration camps — a network where Ukrainian civilians were interrogated, checked, isolated, and forced to disappear without a trace. It was work for which there was no safe route, journalistic protection, or guarantees of return.
I read the forecast regarding the price of SOLANA. The price needs to hold above $86K, which would mean that SOLANA will continue to move in a bullish trend and the price will rise. If it does not hold and drops below 86 thousand US dollars, then a further decline in the price of SOL is expected, a bearish trend. Right now, we see that the price has crossed the $90K mark and has slightly decreased. Is this a final price hold above $86K or a short-term market manipulation? I will continue to observe and accumulate. In investing, patience is gold. $BNSOL

Pavlo Durov accelerated TON by 10 times and is preparing 6 more surprises. The founder of Telegram, Pavlo Durov, presented a global modernization plan for the network called “Make TON Great Again” (MTONGA). The first phase is already completed: thanks to the transition to a new consensus algorithm, the blockchain has accelerated by 10 times, enabling instant transactions. Pavlo Durov officially launched a new era of development for The Open Network (TON), announcing a roadmap with 7 key stages. The name of the strategy — MTONGA (Make TON Great Again) — is an ironic reference to a well-known political slogan, but the technical indicators of the upgrade look quite serious. “The TON blockchain has just been upgraded and is now 10 times faster. The block creation speed has increased by 6 times. Transactions now occur instantly, in less than a second. This was step 1 of 7 on the way to Make TON Great Again (MTONGA). The next step: reduce the already low transaction fees by 6 times,” announced Durov on his own network. Key metrics after the upgrade:
"Biden and Putin were mistaken": the President of Brazil made a statement about the war in Ukraine. Lula da Silva noted that Brazil did not support the RF, but instead supports negotiations (from an interview with Brazilian President Lula da Silva for El Pais). According to da Silva, at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, both sides and their allies had illusions about a quick victory. He noted that U.S. President Joseph Biden was counting on the swift destruction of Russia, while Russian dictator Vladimir Putin hoped for the immediate capture of Ukraine.

Most people see crypto as charts and cycles, but very few think about what it actually took to build this industry from scratch while everything was still uncertain.
That’s why Freedom of Money feels interesting to us. It’s a first-hand look from @cz_binance at how @binance grew from an idea into global infrastructure, all while the space was evolving faster than any rules around it.
A lot of what we see today comes from that phase where builders had to move forward without clear frameworks, focusing on users, security, and scaling something that didn’t really have a playbook yet.
It also adds a different layer knowing that all proceeds go to charity, which makes it feel more like sharing a journey than pushing a product.
Got us thinking about how we define “freedom of money” in the first place. Is it just about access, or is it about something deeper like ownership and independence?
If you’re trying to understand where this space is going, hearing directly from builders might be worth it. Curious how others here think about it.
Feels worth reading just to understand how those early decisions were made and what actually carried forward.
