Nobody is explaining how serious the internet situation is right now.
About 97% of global internet traffic depends on these cables.
Now look at what could happen:
→ If one cable is cut: internet slows in the region → If three cables are cut: partial internet outage in the Gulf → If five cables are cut: banking, cloud services, trading, and e-commerce in the Gulf could go offline → If seven cables are cut: the Gulf could lose its position as a major digital trade hub overnight
The numbers: The Gulf’s digital economy is worth over $1.8 trillion per year. The cost to damage these cables can be extremely low. Repairs could take weeks, especially if access is restricted. This isn’t just about internet connectivity — it’s a serious economic and geopolitical risk. If you have investments connected to the Gulf, keep an eye on this. Check back in 30 days.
I’ll continue sharing updates. Stay alert — this is important. #war #Irannews
Thailand's Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is gathering public input on proposed regulatory changes aimed at enabling digital asset firms to offer derivatives under their existing licenses. This reform would eliminate the need for separate legal entities, thus easing market entry. The changes would enhance Thailand's derivatives market by recognizing digital assets as valid for futures contracts while introducing stricter oversight and conflict-of-interest management.
