déjà la peine est sûrement plus lourde au Maroc que ce qu’elle aurait été initialement en France mais en + 25 ans dans une prison marocaine c’est vraiment pas le club med mdr y’a pas de sortie randonnée dans les jardins du château de Versailles ou de PS5 en cellule mdr

🚨🇫🇷 ALERTE : LE MAROC CONDAMNE UN SUSPECT CLÉ DES ENLÈVEMENTS CRYPTO À 25 ANS DE PRISON

Badiss Mohamed Bajjou, Franco-Marocain de 25 ans soupçonné d’être au cœur d’un réseau lié à l’enlèvement de riches investisseurs en cryptomonnaies en France, a été condamné à 25 ans de prison au Maroc.

Détenant également la nationalité marocaine, il n’a pas été extradé vers la France et a été jugé au Maroc pour des faits qui lui sont reprochés sur le territoire français.

L’affaire porte notamment sur plusieurs enlèvements avec demandes de rançon visant des acteurs du secteur des cryptomonnaies.

Thanks @MarioNawfal & @durov for giving this issue a global exposure. We are 90+ companies who invested in a 🇫🇷crypto license.Only to see our lives and family threatened by criminals who are either released immediately or sent to jails with PlayStation and TikTok in every cells!

🇫🇷 A French tax official was arrested for selling crypto investors' home addresses and financial records to criminal networks.

41 kidnappings followed. One every 2.5 days since January 2026.

The criminals didn't need to hack anything. They bought a list from someone inside the government.

France is the most dangerous country in the world right now if you hold crypto and someone knows about it 💀

[Pavel Durov @durov]

41 kidnappings of crypto holders in France in 3.5 months of 2026.

Why?

🥖 French tax officials selling crypto owners' data to criminals (Ghalia C.) + massive tax database leaks.

Now the state also wants IDs and private messages of social media users.

More data = More victims.

🚨🇫🇷 1 agression crypto tous les 5 jours en France depuis début 2026. Ça ne peut plus durer.

Avec notre équipe, on a décidé de passer à l'action.

Le constat est glaçant 👇
Plus de 314 agressions liées à la crypto recensées dans le monde, dont 49 rien qu'en France.

Sur un an, ces agressions ont augmenté de 13 % à l'échelle mondiale.
En France, elles ont été multipliées par 8.

On ne peut plus fermer les yeux.
C'est pourquoi on lance aujourd'hui une carte interactive qui recense les agressions crypto dans le monde en temps réel.

Notre objectif est triple :
- Prendre conscience collectivement de l'ampleur du problème
- Alerter les pouvoirs publics sur l'urgence d'agir
- Protéger la communauté crypto française

🎯Pour nous aider à faire bouger les choses, c'est simple:
1. Rendez-vous sur la carte (lien en commentaire)
2. Indiquez votre sentiment d'insécurité
3. Partagez la carte autour de vous

Pour rappel, dans quelques jours, la Commission Mixte Paritaire se positionnera pour inscrire dans la loi l'obligation de constituer un fichier géant, inutile à la DGFiP, mais extrêmement dangereux, répertoriant les portefeuilles cryptos de tous les Français.

Ce serait criminel.

Last Thursday, we announced the launch of $SAFO, our latest product, in collaboration with Amundi.

Just three days after its launch, SAFO has already surpassed $100M in TVL, with a user base of over 300.

By comparison, it took us four months to reach this level with our first product launch.

Macrohard or Digital Optimus is a joint xAI-Tesla project, coming as part of Tesla’s investment agreement with xAI.

Grok is the master conductor/navigator with deep understanding of the world to direct digital Optimus, which is processing and actioning the past 5 secs of real-time computer screen video and keyboard/mouse actions. Grok is like a much more advanced and sophisticated version of turn-by-turn navigation software.

You can think of it as Digital Optimus AI being System 1 (instinctive part of the mind) and Grok being System 2. (thinking part of the mind).

This will run very competitively on the super low cost Tesla AI4 ($650) paired with relatively frugal use of the much more expensive xAI Nvidia hardware. And it will be the only real-time smart AI system. This is a big deal.

In principle, it is capable of emulating the function of entire companies. That is why the program is called MACROHARD, a funny reference to Microsoft.

No other company can yet do this.

My information consumption is now 1/4 X, 1/4 podcast interviews of the smartest practitioners, 1/4 talking to the leading AI models, and 1/4 reading old books. The opportunity cost of anything else is far too high, and rising daily.

[Josh Kale @JoshKale]

Scientists just copied a Fruit Fly's biological brain and trapped it inside of a computer.
Not an AI model trained to act like a fly... A total digital copy of a fly !! This is some sick sci-fi stuff:

- They scanned and copied the brain, neuron by neuron, synapse by synapse, from electron microscopy data.
- Then dropped that brain into a simulated body in a video game like environment.

The fly walked. It groomed. It fed. Nobody taught it anything. The behavior was already in the wiring.

The entire premise of modern AI is that intelligence is something you train into a system. This is proof it's something you can transfer out of one. Wild times

What will a 100 kW/ton orbital compute satellite look like?

We’ve been building a satellite mass-budget model to show how compute satellites will differ architecturally from Starlink.

Satcom/Starlink baselines allocate ~35 % of dry mass to phased-array antennas, gimbals, and other continuous Earth-pointing mechanisms required for RF routing.

Compute satellites will have no downlink; data moves via laser links to the Starlink constellation. The freed mass is completely reallocated to solar arrays and radiators, shifting us from an RF-routing architecture to a thermodynamic-optimised one.

The triangular bottleneck in orbital compute satellites is the three-way interdependence of solar generation, thermal rejection, and compute capability: any single subsystem can only scale as far as the other two allow, so true power-density gains require all three to advance in lockstep, otherwise one becomes the binding constraint.

Compute sats have no need for ultra-precise Earth-pointing, so solar arrays can be far lighter and flexible, using passive gravity-gradient and centrifugal tensioning in dawn-dusk SSO.

Operating the compute ASICs at ~370 K, exactly as Elon highlighted, exploits the T⁴ scaling of blackbody radiation, boosting net heat rejection significantly, and thereby slashing the required radiator area (and therefore mass) dramatically. We believe radiators must deploy two-sided and sit in the shade of the solar arrays for optimal cold-space view factors, in order to hit 100kW/ton.

At first glance, thermal rejection becomes one of the largest subsystems (~34 % of dry mass). Yet this dominance only appears because projected PV efficiency gains and higher chip temperature enable 7× higher power throughput, greater than the expected headroom in radiator efficiency gains. The triangular bottleneck closes cleanly at 100.2 W/kg system power density, almost exactly the line in the sand Elon and SpaceX have drawn.

As finance folks who've had the privilege of learning from leading space-industry engineers, we offer this conceptual take with a grain of salt: these 100 kW/ton satellites would likely look quite different from Starlink satellites...

We imagine compute satellites will have a compact central bus housing only the dense compute payload and laser links, surrounded by large, light, thin-film solar arrays deployed radially like wings or sails, kept taut by passive gravity-gradient and centrifugal tensioning in dawn-dusk SSO. Paired with them will be two-sided deployable radiator fins, deliberately positioned in the permanent shade of the arrays for optimal cold-space view factors.

We are keen to learn more though so please share any suggestions.
