Alright, a rare crypto post from me in 2026
The US Treasury did *NOT* seize any decentralized assets (such as BTC/ETH) held in self-custodied wallets from Iran - they are unable to do that
They seized centralized stablecoins +/- crypto held in exchanges
Much of crypto is retarded, but you can absolutely hold unseizable digital assets - that's the one good thing about crypto and that has not changed
Reality check for Indians dreaming of Germany or Europe.
I lived there for 6 years.
A €70k salary sounds massive in INR.
(~65–70 LPA after conversion)
But reality looks more like this:
- ~40% gone in taxes
- €1.5k+ rent in major cities
- expensive electricity & internet
- high insurance costs
- eating out is costly
- every service costs money
After PPP adjustment,
€70k in Germany feels closer to
~32–35 LPA in India.
So before leaving your well-paid job in India. Think twice.
