Bitcoin news and bitcoin regulation update. Today I cover FinCEN withdrawing its crypto mixing rule and self-hosted wallet proposal, a congressional bill targeting candidates who trade prediction markets on their own elections, and a 4chan Bitcoin cycle prediction calling October 5 the bottom. I also get into Bitcoin merchant adoption in Indiana, India’s removal of Jack Dorsey’s Bitchat, and a Claude privacy case involving human review and law enforcement.
