War is approaching, according to several experts. Europe may not be formally at war with Russia, yet the signs of hybrid aggression are increasingly visible. These include attacks on submarine cable networks, drones entering European airspace, and persistent disinformation campaigns designed to weaken institutions and public trust.
Financial stability becomes especially vulnerable in this environment. Central banks and financial authorities across the EU are working to develop systems that can function under real wartime pressure. This includes ATMs equipped with internal batteries and online payment infrastructures capable of operating without Internet access, such as the Digital Euro.
This is also why the world needs blockchain. The conflict in Ukraine demonstrated that blockchain technology can keep essential payments flowing even when traditional systems are disrupted. Decentralized networks supported by globally distributed nodes are naturally more resilient to attacks and failures. In moments of conflict, they help maintain a balance of power by ensuring that people and institutions can continue to operate, which is as critical to deterrence as conventional weapons and ammunition.
The world needs blockchain.
Some people are pushing the idea that the recent surge in privacy‑coin prices is directly tied to the 🇪🇺 EU’s new fiscal‑transparency rules coming into effect. If we take these arguments at face value, it would imply that investors would rather watch their portfolios drop 80–90% during the next market crash, as they almost always do, than pay roughly 20% tax on actual realized gains. That logic doesn’t hold up.
So don’t buy into every storyline that circulates. What we’re seeing is far more likely a classic pump‑and‑dump scheme or a large‑scale offloading of funds linked to past hacks, rather than any meaningful reaction to regulation.

The man in this picture is running for the Portuguese Presidency. He is promising to create a 'happiness token' and distribute it to the entire Portuguese population. Change my PFP to combine my photo with his campaign poster, including the text 'I SUPPORT VIEIRA'.
