Liebe Mutter!
Jetzt erst weiß ich, was Hunger ist u. wie weh er tut. Schon wochenlang muß ich mit 1½ Schnitten Brot u. einem halbvollen Kochgeschirr Wasser-Suppe auskommen. Ich bin so schlapp und müde, Du glaubst es nicht. (…)
Meine liebe Mutter, wird es noch einmal Tage geben, wo ich bei Dir sein kann? Wo Deine Hände mich hegen u. pflegen? Ich kann es kaum noch begreifen, daß es nochmal so schön werden kann. Alles war ein Traum.
Im festen Glauben an eine baldige Änderung grüßt und küßt Dich
Dein Sohn Hans

‼️Eine erschütternde Geschichte...
Edina, knapp 16 Jahre, erkrankt am Hodgkin-Lymphom, lehnte auf eigenen Wunsch eine weitere konventionelle Behandlung (Chemotherapie) aufgrund lebensbedrohlicher Komplikationen ab.
Das führte dazu, dass sie „in Obhut“ genommen wurde..

Ab September 2026 zeigt die New York Fashion Week keine Kleidung mehr mit Pelz auf ihren Laufstegen. Und folgt damit der Londoner und Kopenhagener Fashion Week, die schon pelzfrei sind. Bitte, Paris & Mailand, unterstützt das Tierleid nicht weiter und macht auch Schluss mit Pelz!

Verbot des Verkaufs von Zibetkaffee auf Amazon, eBay und Etsy. Zibetkatzen auf Zibetkaffee-Plantagen leiden immens. Wilde Zibetkatzen werden mit grausamen Methoden gefangen, erleiden schwere Verletzungen und werden ohne angemessene Pflege, Biosicherheitsmaßnahmen oder tierärztliche Aufsicht gehalten.

2025, without a doubt, has been an incredible year for @Ripple, and a record year for crypto as a whole. Although we have a couple of months left, this announcement feels like the cherry on top of a mountain of good news:
Today we announced a $500M investment in Ripple, from Fortress Investment Group, @citsecurities, @PanteraCapital, @galaxyhq, Brevan Howard, and Marshall Wace at a $40B valuation.
This investment isn’t just validation of Ripple’s growth strategy and business built on the foundation of XRP, but also a clear bet on what the future of crypto will look like. I’m very proud of what we’ve built, and all that’s to come.
XRP community – I promised I’d have an update on my next adventure soon right? Well here’s the start: I’ll be a strategic advisor to @evernorthxrp, helmed by my friend @ashgoblue.
Evernorth was founded as a regulated, scalable investment vehicle to tap into opportunities for XRP in DeFi and capital markets, extending the entire XRP ecosystem. I’m excited to get started!
Today, Ripple moves forward—stronger than ever. This landmark case set a precedent for the domestic crypto industry.
With the SEC dropping its appeal, Ripple is now in the driver's seat and we’ll evaluate how best to pursue our cross appeal. Regardless, today is a day to celebrate this victory.
This is it – the moment we’ve been waiting for. The SEC will drop its appeal – a resounding victory for Ripple, for crypto, every way you look at it.
The future is bright. Let's build.
The delay in settling Ripple's case (as pointed out by James below), is likely the injunction in Judge Torres' judgment.
The court enjoined Ripple from (basically) making sales directly to customers. There are workarounds for that, but obviously Ripple would rather not have the injunction at all!
So, assuming the SEC is willing to work on this with them, the issue is this: Once a court issues an injunction, the parties themselves can't simply agree between them to disregard the injunction! Trust me, many men have gotten in legal trouble by thinking that since they got back with their girlfriend, they could ignore the restraining order (a type of injunction) against being within 200 feet of her. 👮♀️🚓
So, how do you dissolve an injunction? It's not simple, which is why I think the case doesn't resolve until April-May whereas all these other cases have already been dismissed. (cont'd)
I've never been so excited to get a "C" since I was in high school math.
What is NOT being appealed: That XRP is not a Security.
What is being appealed: Ripple's sales of XRP on exchanges and the use of XRP as a kind of payment.
What does "De Novo" mean? It means the appellate court is ruling on a pure issue of law and doesn't have to defer to the trial court on the "law" issues.
What I don't like? The SEC completely folded when it had the opportunity to actually try the case against Garlinghouse and Larsen in front of a jury. And now it's trying to bring those claims back to life. Chicken move IMO.
What I like? This appeal is about money. The injunction could change if Ripple were to lose, but only indirectly (as to order compliance).
I can't understand the fear.
SEC did not appeal $XRP's non-security decision.
They appealed the penalty amount:
Ripple pays $ 125MM in penalties ✅, or
Ripple pays $ 333MM in penalties ✅
So, Ripple has already won.
Don't get distracted.
