🇬🇧 Spanish police arrest three Britons for kidnapping a crypto trader in Marbella.

The victim had accepted an invitation to an apartment in the nearby resort town of Estepona, where the kidnappers ambushed him.

The three criminals demanded a £25,000 ransom in crypto.

The victim pretended to call someone who had the second part of his crypto seed phrase. However, while talking, he discreetly informed his friend that he was being held against his will.

The police were alerted and quickly located the apartment where he was being held.

As officers were preparing to raid the apartment, the kidnapped man took advantage of a moment of inattention from his captors to escape.

He jumped from a balcony, breaking his ankles in the fall…

"During the police operation to locate the apartment, officers saw several nervous men going in and out of the property onto an outdoor terrace. Moments later, they saw another man, who turned out to be the kidnapping victim, jumping from the terrace to the ground. He was taken to the hospital for treatment of his injuries."

The police shared footage of the raid, showing the perpetrators attempting to flee in an Audi.

"Two firearms hidden in kitchen cabinets, nearly €10,000, a money-counting machine, three knives—including a butterfly knife—two designer watches, and 25 grams of pink cocaine, along with a scale, were found during a search of the apartment."

The criminals were all remanded in custody after appearing in court.

It would have been better to sell the Audi, buy Bitcoin, wait five years, and avoid the hassle.

I will play devil’s advocate.

The most deluded people in the future will be Jesus followers, clinging to the promise of a better future in paradise.

There are lessons to extrapolate—living in the present is truly important—but there is too much rhetoric in their words.

I feel that Nietzsche’s Will to Power is an essential component of life.

The smartest will always rise above the masses.

You can't change that, not even with Bitcoin.

You can only create space for a new aristocracy to lead society with new ideas.

Marcus Aurelius, a wise man, left the empire to his degenerate son, marking the beginning of its decline.

Westerners are deluded by a notion of freedom that exists only in their fogged minds.

The people lobbying are focused on promoting their own platforms—this is politics. Michael, on the other hand, is simply trying to educate them about Bitcoin, a powerful tool. However, in reality, things aren’t strictly black and white; there are nuances and complexities.

No, my comment is just speculation on what seems to be their approach to Bitcoin. It would make sense to use it to gain a political advantage. Many of Trump's team hold Bitcoin, and many emerging right-wing populists are also enthusiastic about Bitcoin.

Would it make sense for a political party to favor an emerging form of money held by its international allies in order to entrench its position for decades?

It could protect the dollar's hegemony while preserving the freedom of exchange through Bitcoin and potentially offer a solution to the debt problem.

We, as a people, decide what has value and exchange this value among ourselves for goods and services.

We have chosen to disconnect them from us, not the other way around.

We shield our wealth in cyberspace; we are not imprisoned by it.
