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

Your birthplace shouldn't determine your access to the global economy.

The hardest part about being in crypto is pretending to care about “agentic payments”.

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.

Hyperliquid tab pulled up in front of a bloomberg window does it get more cinematic than that
