Is Bitcoin Mining Worth It in 2026? Home vs. Hosted, Honestly

Best Bitcoin Mining Hosting Companies (2026): Who to Trust With Your Miner

Hugging Face Was Breached by an Autonomous AI Agent Swarm
An AI-agent swarm breached Hugging Face. Its defenders then learned why critical organizations need models they can run and control themselves.

Capital B, Europe’s second-largest Bitcoin treasury company, announces a 10-for-1 reverse stock split to attract more institutional investors.
A dev just rebuilt the government war room and put it on GitHub. Live 3D globe, 500+ news feeds, military movements, shipping lanes, flight paths, 56 map layers. Runs locally with no API keys.

"The Strait of Hormuz was called out in the national security strategy last year as a key priority. A tinfoil-hat theorist might say this was the outcome certain parties wanted." -@JohnArnoldTen31 We discuss: ⚡ War & oil ⚡ The Fed blinks ⚡ AI arms race
"There's no malice. The commanding officers want to do good. But the 'do good' is to spend more. The system is designed to make you consume and spend over and over again." @avg_gary on the perverse incentives baked into every level of government.
"I will never run a Bitcoin Core node ever again. If that means I'm on some dead isolated chain where people are talking about proof of work changes, I don't care." - @GrassFedBitcoin
"The exploitative and extractive nature that we play on the global scale is only going to be challenged if we are getting more immigrants into office." Democratic Socialist Melat Kiros says the quiet part out loud.
How the Romans debased their currency explained:
Robot dogs are learning to weld. There's a 400,000 welder shortage in the US and the average welder is 55 years old. @PathRobotics is deploying robots to fill the gap.
"Build the citadel. Learn to farm. Run the meetup. Buy goats from Billy." @avg_gary on how bitcoiners win by building parallel economies that make the old system irrelevant.
Coinbase Vice Chair on CNBC talking about the CLARITY Act: "The Democrats have obtained meaningful concessions to make what was already a strong consumer protection bill, THAT much stronger."

OKX announces former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has joined its Board of Directors. Cuomo has served as an advisor to the crypto exchange since 2023 on US regulatory and institutional strategy.

The Trump administration is quietly working to ban Chinese open-source AI models from the US. According to Axios, Commerce Department officials considered adding Chinese AI labs to the Entity List, the NSA explored advisories discouraging their use, and draft rules circulated to target Chinese open-source models using supply chain authorities. Pro-innovation voices inside the administration killed those efforts last year. But personnel shifts and the rise of Kimi K3 have given national security hawks new ammunition. David Sacks put it bluntly: "The leading closed labs, already a duopoly in terms of AI model revenue, want the government to eliminate their open-source competition." This isn't really about China. OpenAI and Anthropic have been pushing for licensing and safety regimes that would kneecap open-source competitors for years. Chinese models just give them a national security wrapper to sell it in. The playbook is to use fear of a foreign threat to justify consolidating power domestically. The result would be a US AI ecosystem controlled by two companies with regulatory moats no startup could climb.
