As the ever-vigilant Associated Press hath reported, this isolated realm-once a Soviet satellite, now a bastion of state control-hath officially embraced the crypto craze. President Serdar Berdymukhamedov, with a flourish of his quill, signed a law in November, allowing crypto firms to register as of January 1st. A bold move, indeed, for a nation that treats the internet as a rarefied luxury! 🕸️

In a scene straight from a Kafkaesque nightmare, governments are escalating their campaign against those sneaky crypto adventurers. The new crypto reporting rules have begun… well, beginning to take effect, as if the world needed another reason to distrust its own shadow. The Coalition of the Willing (or perhaps the Bewildered) now shares their secrets, aiming to expose the clandestine treasures of cross-border crypto speculation. No more hiding behind the curtains of anonymous transactions; the curtain is being drawn, and what lies behind is hardly a pretty sight. 😅

In his New Year’s sermon, Lee, with a wink and a grin, asked investors to back this proposal before the vote closes on January 14, just a day before BitMine’s annual hoedown in Las Vegas. 🌴🎰

Behold, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), that grand orchestrator of fiscal destiny, has birthed this monstrosity with the blessing of the G20. Exchanges, brokers, and digital asset minions must now don the mantle of due diligence, probing the tax residencies of their clients with the zeal of a detective in a Dostoevskian novel. Every transaction-crypto to fiat, asset to asset, transfer to transfer-shall be etched into the annals of tax authority lore. 📜

Just as Armstrong was busy painting rainbows and unicorns 🦄 in his 2026 roadmap-all about global exchanges, stablecoins, and on-chain shenanigans-Monahan chimed in with a dose of cold, hard reality. ☠️ “User safety? Ain’t nobody got time for that!” she quipped, pointing out that Coinbase’s security blunders cost them a cool $350 million in 2025. Ouch. 💸

But lo and behold, on 2026’s first trading day, a change is brewing-or should we say, a crypto cauldron is bubbling? Prices are actually rising while American markets are open. Could this be the start of a new chapter, or just another page in the book of financial folly? 📈📉

The Sui ecosystem, a realm of digital utopias, will host the Taipei Builders’ Demo Day at National Taiwan University on 4th January 2026. It will showcase innovative DeFi and Web3 projects, where developers will present their applications to judges and attendees, all while secretly plotting to replace traditional finance with a blockchain-based dystopia. 🌐💸

Our protagonist, Mr. Salame, has taken to the stage with a tale that would make even the most seasoned playwright raise an eyebrow. He claims that federal prosecutors, rather than donning their detective hats, opted for a spotlight on certain individuals, almost as if they were casting for a theatrical production. Why, he alleges, was he unfairly targeted for his Republican campaign contributions while the Democratic donations of his fellow executive, Mr. Bankman-Fried, breezed by like a summer zephyr?

The big boss at Bitfarms, Ben Gagnon, declared that these sweet deals mean they’re lookin’ at a couple of years’ worth of cash flow to toss into their North American adventures-more power, more AI, more money- like a squirrel hoarding acorns for winter while humming a tune. 🌰🤖
