GM, FATF has issued a new report claiming that „Virtual Assets are increasingly used by terrorist groups“.
The only problem: Their statement is directly contradicted in their own report and lacks any corroborating data to back it up, while highlighting that *a lack of data* – particularly for peer-to-peer transactions – remains a main challenge to FATF compliance.
Of course, that doesn’t stop FATF from recommending that all jurisdictions „act rapidly“ to implement the FATF Travel Rule, which requires ‚VASPs‘ and financial institutions to „obtain, hold, and transmit specific originator and beneficiary information immediately and securely when transferring Virtual Assets“ to address the „emerging and increasing risks“ which, again, cannot be corroborated by the report itself.
It is unbelievable that an organization with *such* low standards is being taken seriously at all, never mind allowed to guide the implementation of AML/CFT around the world.

The Israeli government use USD exclusively.
My mate Dave bought a bit of weed with Monero once though.
Indeed. I tend to take the perspective that if Russians are serving us up misinformation then the USA is doing the same on steroids.
It’s a shame really, it’s turned the world pretty shit.
If there’s any Russians looking for a good account to relay misinformation drop me a DM.
I do a starter package. 2 memes, 5 shitposts and up to 10 YouTube link shares for just 50,0000 sats per day.
Meh, be the change you want to see.
The noise might be on Twitter but there’s more actual transactions happening here.
Thinking you need X is being in denial.
You can do it!
I’ve given up the naughtiest of things that folks say are highly addictive...
You recognise the problem and that’s a great start, you’ve completed step one. Good luck!
I think it was smoother this morning but still a bit sketchy at the start. I made sure nothing else was online (Nextcloud etc.)
Bandwidth was pretty low once streaming, around 5mbps. Down from 18 pre stream.
We are prone to internet drop outs in my area, I’ve mostly put that down to work being done installing new fibre in the area. Today was definitely an improvement.
Math = 1 sum
Maths = many sums.
This morning's Kali Mera show will be a celebration of being a weirdo, an outsider and maybe a bit of a bellend. I'm bringing traditional values back to weirdness. No I haven't turned religious nor will I be spinning any DJ Vance. I mean oldschool weird, not politically motivated weird. If someone's a cunt, call them a cunt!
I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo (hey that would make a good song imo).
Anyway, expect some Prog, Soul, Indie Rap, Noise and where ever the spirit guides me this morning.
This will be exclusively on my own server so any zaps will be best served on Nostr.

Can we just round up all the politicians, load them into a rocket ship and launch them into the flaming hot sun?
I think it help Planet Earth’s UX immensely.
Good morning!
Shouldn’t it be polymaths?
One math - monomath
Says person using Nostr…
Do religion first…
Because Owncast is on my own server and I also want to broadcast to Fediverse folks and there’s already a decent Owncast community there.
I go to zap stream for the zaps obviously but maybe there’s a better way…
OBS is on a M1 MBP so I think that should be ample but Owncast is on an old ThinkCentre. But the net here is also temperamental but want to investigate all hardware before paying for extra bandwidth..
Still can't get rid of RegionalHodl guy on the TL. I guess it's a bug, not a feature...
The only watch man I clock is Flava Flav. You can fly first class or economy class, if you're truly fly you can fly always.
