Blast Off | Bitcoin News

Bitcoin news and economic news update. Today I cover Bitcoin’s rebound as war-risk pressure eases, Gary Gensler backing states in the prediction market regulation fight, Metaplanet buying Siiibo Securities, Poland’s latest MiCA veto, El Salvador’s tax pitch for Bitcoin holders, Sam Bankman-Fried losing another FTX appeal, Microsoft’s AI labor warning, and BitGo bringing institutional bitcoin to the Lightning Network. This episode touches on bitcoin price, bitcoin regulation, financial news, and bitcoin technology without pretending any of this is normal. Progress, apparently.
