DT Marks DEFI LLC, controlled by Donald Trump and his family, holds 22.5 billion tokens and receives 75% of sales revenue, while the project lists Trump family members in prominent roles; World Liberty Financial maintains it has robust compliance measures with no evidence of wrongdoing.

Bill PL 4501/2024, introduced in November 2024 by Deputy Eros Biondini, would create a Strategic Sovereign Bitcoin Reserve managed by the Central Bank and Ministry of Finance. The latest version from rapporteur Deputy Luiz Gastão on February 9, 2026, targets 1 million BTC at a cost of about $69 billion, or 19% of Brazil's $358 billion reserves. Proponents see it diversifying away from U.S. dollar assets and hedging risks, with secure storage and public reporting required, though it must clear multiple committees amid economic hurdles.

Key Takeaway

Brazilian lawmakers just ramped up a plan to stockpile 1 million Bitcoin over five years—a move that could reshape the nation's reserves.

Elon Musk stated late Saturday that Dubai and the UAE are objectively safer and better run than many European areas, hours after Iran fired 137 missiles and 209 drones at UAE sites in retaliation for U.S. and Israeli strikes. UAE defenses intercepted most, but debris caused fires, one death in Abu Dhabi, injuries at Dubai airport, and flight suspensions. Videos showed lively night scenes in Dubai, backed by Numbeo data ranking Abu Dhabi (88.9 safety) and Dubai (83.9) far above London or Paris, though critics noted geopolitical risks, strict laws, and Europe's petty crime issues.

Key Takeaway

As Iranian missiles lit up UAE skies, families strolled Dubai's streets past the Burj Khalifa, sharing videos of calm amid the alerts.

In a Telegraph interview, the author suggested her move from London to Portugal around 2022-2023 stemmed mainly from the city's shifting demographics, but she fired back in a Spectator column that multiple factors played a role, with the real tipping point being HMRC's new digital tax rules starting April 2026 for self-employed earners over £50,000. The rules require quarterly digital filings via approved software, which Shriver called 'death-by-bureaucracy' that punishes freelancers. The back-and-forth highlighted divides, with supporters decrying red tape and critics pointing to irony in her own immigrant status abroad.

Key Takeaway

Lionel Shriver, after 36 years in the UK, didn't pack up just because of immigration changes—she says a looming tax bureaucracy rule was the final straw.

Leavitt made the remark during a briefing on the U.S.-led Operation Epic Fury against Iran, blaming Biden's aid for straining munitions stockpiles while insisting the U.S. has ample reserves. Ukrainians like Kate Bohuslavska from Kharkiv called it heartless amid shortages of air defense missiles, and politician Inna Sovsun pointed to Ukraine's 1994 surrender of nuclear warheads for broken security promises. Critics noted the $188 billion in authorized aid supported U.S. jobs and production, with the Trump administration authorizing no major new packages since January 2025 amid talks for Ukrainian drone tech.

Key Takeaway

As Ukrainians face deadly Russian bombings, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt labeled former President Biden a 'very stupid and incompetent leader' for sending U.S. weapons to Ukraine.
