Financial Freedom Report #36 is out now. We highlight:
-Venezuela: Amid post-election turmoil, Venezuelans face restrictions accessing Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange. Meanwhile, dictator Nicolás Maduro blocked access to X and detained thousands, deepening financial and speech repression.
-Nigeria: Political activist James Otudor filed a lawsuit against the Nigerian regime. He advocates for the right to own, trade, and use Bitcoin to safeguard against local currency devaluation and inflation.
-Kyrgyzstan: Plans to launch a CBDC by 2027, raising concerns about potential misuse under President Sadyr Japarov’s increasingly repressive regime.
In Bitcoin news:
-Speed: Launches USDT-L, a new stablecoin on the Lightning Network, providing faster, cheaper, and more private transactions.
-Voltz: Unveils a custodial wallet that combines on-chain Bitcoin, Lightning, and eCash transactions for greater financial privacy.
-Proton VPN: Introduces new anti-censorship features helping users bypass digital repression in countries where access to platforms and information is increasingly restricted.
