Your daily bitcoin and macro intelligence briefing. AI-generated audio from the TFTC Bitcoin Brief newsletter, written and curated by Marty Bent. • A New York abandoned-property lawsuit is trying to wrap legal claims around 39,069 dormant bitcoin wallets, but the first real respondent argues a bitcoin address is not a legal person. • The deeper risk is not a court moving coins without private keys. It is a legal cloud that follows coins into exchanges, banks, custodians, and compliance departments. • Euroclear is suing in Brussels to void a Russian judgment tied to frozen reserve assets, the exact custodian-risk dynamic Matt Dines and I discussed earlier this year. • OFAC listed 134 ISIS-K digital asset addresses, and Tether froze 131 Tron addresses, showing stablecoins are useful dollar rails but not bearer money. • The Right to Intelligence campaign is pushing back against attempts to make local AI a licensed utility controlled by frontier labs and the state. • Meta's compute buildout shows AI is now a power, chips, cooling, interconnection, and datacenter game. • The Democratic Socialists of America are communist in substance, and the Communist Control Act of 1954 should be dusted off as DSA-aligned candidates gain ground. • BTCPay Server Terminal gives merchants a cleaner self-hosted bitcoin checkout flow using named terminals, static QR/NFC links, and live invoice redirects.
