Chinese officials visited Moscow’s central bank, finance ministry, and other key agencies to analyze how Russia navigated economic restrictions. This proactive approach speaks to fears China may have over its $3.3 trillion in foreign reserves and overseas bank assets, which would face significant restrictions under Western sanctions. In an effort to mitigate these risks, China is working to diversify away from dollar-denominated assets and reduce reliance on US Treasury bonds, which underpin the global financial system. This comes amid escalating tensions with the US after Washington approved an arms shipment to Taiwan, prompting Beijing to vow “resolute countermeasures.” FinancialFreedomReport.org - BDK Code Audit https://bitcoindevkit.org/blog/_2024-q4-code-audit/ - Eclair v0.11.0: Official Bolt 12 Support, Splicing, Liquidity Ads & On-The-Fly Funding Prototypes https://www.nobsbitcoin.com/eclair-v0-11-0/ - Damus Notedeck Alpha Now Available to Purple Subscribers https://www.nobsbitcoin.com/damus-notedeck-v0-2-0/ - Coinbase says to not use VPNs https://www.nobsbitcoin.com/coinbase-asks-users-to-stop-using-vpns-and-ad-blockers/ - Alex Mashinsky: founder of bankrupt crypto firm to plead guilty to fraud https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2024/dec/03/alex-mashinsky-crypto-fraud-celsius - U.S. Officials Urge Americans to Use Encrypted Messaging Apps https://www.nobsbitcoin.com/u-s-officials-urge-americans-to-use-encrypted-messaging-apps/ - Corporate Transparency Act blocked nationwide by Texas judge https://news.bloombergtax.com/daily-tax-report/corporate-transparency-act-blocked-nationwide-by-texas-court - what bitcoin did relaunches - 1123 days, shoutout to yellow https://x.com/ICOffenderII/status/1864574706583547911 0:00 - Intro 3:52 - Let’s gooooooooo 11:57 - Bitstein video 16:30 - Trump says you’re welcome 18:15 - Shoutout to Yellow 20:29 - Dashboard 27:15 - Strike launches bill pay 30:47 - Putin bitcoin comment and BRICS talk 38:38 - Healthcare assassination 41:41 - HRF Story of the Week 43:34 - Boosts and Primal/Fountain talk 50:47 - Software updates 57:22 - Coinbase says no vpns 1:00:09 - Mashinsky guilty plea 1:08:15 - Marty failed Barstool 1:11:07 - US officials encourage encrypted comms 1:22:34 - Corp Transparency Act blocked 1:27:22 - WBD relaunch 1:29:40 - Get back to work Shoutout to our sponsors: Unchained https://unchained.com/concierge/ Coinkite https://coinkite.com/ Stakwork https://stakwork.ai/ TFTC Merch is Available: Shop Now https://merch.tftc.io/ Join the TFTC Movement: Main YT Channel https://www.youtube.com/c/TFTC21/videos Clips YT Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUQcW3jxfQfEUS8kqR5pJtQ Website https://tftc.io/ Twitter https://twitter.com/tftc21 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/tftc.io/ Follow Marty Bent: Twitter https://twitter.com/martybent Newsletter https://tftc.io/martys-bent/ Podcast https://tftc.io/podcasts/ Follow Odell: Nostr https://primal.net/odell Newsletter https://discreetlog.com/ Podcast https://citadeldispatch.com/

The regime loyalists deployed 20 officers and detained D’Anda at his home, confiscating his equipment before taking him to the notorious El Chipote prison. Several press freedom organizations have condemned the arbitrary detention as an attack on free expression. This arrest is the latest addition to a series of repressive measures by the Sandinista regime, which has crushed independent media through shutdowns, exiles, intimidations, and persecutions.

It even requires users to submit personal details such as national identity card numbers and IP addresses. This crackdown erodes the privacy and freedoms VPNs offer, leaving citizens increasingly vulnerable to surveillance and control and stifling the flow of information. In a country where Internet disruptions and bans on platforms like X are commonplace, restricted VPN access could limit access to financial freedom tools like Bitcoin (which to some degree rely on access to on and off ramps like digital asset exchanges). The regime may further isolate Pakistanis from decentralized financial systems by tightening its grip on digital platforms and consolidating its control over information and financial activity.

According to Netblocks, “the incident comes as the police force issues an alert over alleged opposition party plans to raid police stations where political prisoners might be held.” Tanzania has witnessed an unprecedented crackdown from security forces, who have detained hundreds of opposition party members, including the chairman of the Chadema party, Freeman Mbwoe, and his deputy, Tundu Lissu. Other prominent critics, including Deusdedith Soka and Dioniz Kipanya, disappeared, while Shadrack Chaula, a TikToker critical of President Samia Suluhu Hassan, remains missing. These actions undermine democratic processes and escalate the government’s efforts to stifle dissent and control information.

Binance is a peer-to-peer exchange popular with Venezuelans in search of US dollars, stablecoins, and Bitcoin to escape the regime’s ongoing devaluation of the bolívar. With Binance now inaccessible, many find themselves financially trapped and increasingly vulnerable in a country where 82% live in poverty and 53% live in extreme poverty. Alongside censoring Binance, Maduro has blocked access to social media platform X for 10 days, revoked passports arbitrarily, and detained over 2,000 activists, lawyers, opposition figures, and civilians protesting the fraudulent election results.

The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority plans to screen and approve state-compliant VPNs. While the government cites national security as a reason for this action, critics and digital rights activists argue that these measures enhance the regime’s ability to monitor and control internet activity. The impact of these restrictions extends beyond communication barriers. They can also impact access to financial services, for example, by cutting off access to alternative currencies like Bitcoin (which have provided a liferaft for many Pakistanis but which was restricted in 2018). These policies contribute to a troubling pattern of digital and financial repression for the 235 million Pakistanis living under a hybrid authoritarian regime. Similar measures have been observed in China and Iran, where the regimes exert internet controls to suppress dissent and maintain their power.
