In my opinion, Elon Musk's decision is strange, he wrote that Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht will be released


Ross Ulbricht's story is twofold. On the one hand, he wanted to rethink freedom, but he became its prisoner. He created Silk Road, a platform that promised to become the ideal of a free market, where everyone could sell and buy without control.


The idea sounded like a manifesto against control: a technology that returns power to people. But reality turned this experiment into a crime.


After his arrest in 2013, Ulbricht became a scapegoat. He was accused of everything from drug trafficking to contract killings (although this charge was never proven).


A life sentence without the possibility of release is not just a punishment, but an indicator of how the system protects its borders. He was judged not as a person, but as a symbol that needed to be broken.


And now Elon Musk, the man who plays against the rules but always wins, is talking about freeing him. Why? Musk is a master of symbols, and freeing Ross could be another high-profile move in his game. Or does he really see Ulbricht as someone who was unjustly destroyed?


The question is: what happens next? Can Ross, broken by a decade behind bars, once again become a symbol of freedom? Or will his story remain a grim reminder that no technology can save you if it threatens the system?

  As good news as any: VanEck claims that the bitcoin reserves of 20 US states can provide an influx of $23 billion on their own . VanEck is trying to warm up the market with all his might, but the reality is that bitcoin is still a financial attraction for enthusiasts and speculators. Twenty three billion? Sounds good, but where are the real buyers? Retail is already squeezed out — it has no time for crypto when inflation is strangling its pockets. Institutions are also in no hurry, because, despite all the hype, bitcoin remains an instrument with a dubious status: neither a full-fledged currency, nor a stable asset, nor a protected reserve. Real mass adoption will appear only when states not only recognize the blockchain, but implement it into their financial system. For now, it's still the same old Wild West: beautiful in words, but dangerous in practice. We're waiting!  #btc #bitcoin #vanec #blockchain

  Digital childhood: how smartphones have reprogrammed the social skills of zoomers Instead of yard games and live communication — endless social media feeds and notifications that beep faster than a heartbeat after morning coffee. The zoomer generation grew up surrounded by smartphones, and this has not only changed their behavior — it has reprogrammed the very structure of their socialization. Fifteen years ago, a smartphone was a novelty, and today it is an extension of the hand. But behind the convenience lies another side: anxiety, depression, and a growing dependence on virtual recognition. The statistics are frightening: the level of depression among teenagers has increased by 50%, and the number of suicides is even higher. And these are not just numbers, this is the reality of the new digital generation. Once upon a time, children learned to communicate, argue, make peace, and make decisions in the yard or during school breaks. Now the main field for this “training” is soci...

  Why compete when you can just ban your rival’s product? One strong competitor was enough to shake the nerves of Western tech giants. There are reasons for it. It spent zero dollars on promotion, yet amassed 100 million users in just a week! No other service has ever achieved such growth. After the initial shock, the narrative shifted: Deepseek wasn’t as innovative as it seemed, they said. It allegedly stole technology, violated sanctions, smuggled equipment, and, of course, the Chinese government was spying on you through it. Choose your favorite excuse for why you should forget about this service. But some governments didn’t even bother with explanations and simply banned it. "National security" is always a convenient trump card, easily pulled from the sleeve when needed. And since the company is Chinese, the panic escalated. Italy was the first to act without hesitation. Soon after, Taiwan, Australia, and South Korea followed, with more countries expected to join. The off...
