NATO has used recent incidents to justify an increase in its military presence in the Baltic Sea and launched a new missionhttps://www.nato.int/cps/en/natohq/news_232122.htm  that a NATO naval flotilla has assembled off the coast of Estonia to "protect" undersea infrastructure. https://cms.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/eagles.jpg?itok=l7PpqJPZ The Post report, which cited US and European intelligence officials, said that "investigations involving the United States and a half-dozen European security services have turned up no indication that commercial ships suspected of dragging anchors across seabed systems did so intentionally or at the direction of Moscow." US officials said "clear explanations" in each case indicated the incidents were likely accidents, and no evidence suggested that Russia was involved. In some cases, ships dragging their anchors damaged cables underwater. The Washington Post report cites American and European intelligence officials who have ultimately rejected the official Western https://archive.vn/7JcKG#selection-583.9-589.278 : Ruptures of undersea cables that have rattled European security officials in recent months were likely the result of maritime accidents rather than Russian sabotage, according to several U.S. and European intelligence officials. The determination reflects an emerging consensus among U.S. and European security services, according to senior officials from three countries involved in ongoing investigations of a string of incidents in which critical seabed energy and communications lines have been severed. The Eagle S, a tanker suspected of damaging a power cable connecting Finland and Estonia, was recently boarded by the Finnish Coast Guard, and its crew has been detained indefinitely while the ship is being investigated. Finnish officials have accused the Eagle S of being part of a "ghost fleet" that carries Russian oil and avoids Western sanctions. Yet here's more from the bombshell https://archive.vn/7JcKG#selection-655.0-655.243 : Instead, U.S. and European officials said that the evidence gathered to date — including intercepted communications and other classified intelligence — points to accidents caused by inexperienced crews serving aboard poorly maintained vessels. A lawyer representing the ship’s owner acknowledged that it was carrying Russian oil but said it was not a violation of international law and denied the tanker purposely damaged the undersea cable. https://cms.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/cablecuts.jpg?itok=NEtdQpZH Western officials have said the incidents in the Baltic were part of a broader Russian sabotage campaign in Europe, and some officials quoted in the Post report said they were not convinced the damage was caused by accident, but they have produced no evidence for their claims. https://cms.zerohedge.com/users/tyler-durden Tue, 01/21/2025 - 03:30 https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/wapo-undersea-cable-damage-baltic-sea-result-accidents-not-russian-sabotage

About?

On a day when a US president reckons on making the world a better place, take a look at this 15 minute monologue and compare the challenges and solution laid out, compared to what the president is talking about. https://youtu.be/aLaVutWXju0 Anyone over 18 still has many years of horrendous problems in the pipeline baked into the system being tinkered with not dismantled. Just gotta keep rejecting and disengaging from what's wrong, long enough for our kids to grow into their boots and reshape the world properly, presumably with a hard money at its core. #homesteading #nature #bitcoin

🌊 SURF 'N TURF 🏝️ -THE BITCOIN ISLAND LIFE- 'Ghost' Island Emerges From Ocean – And It's About to Vanish Again 20 January 2025 ByCarly Cassella 'Ghost' Island Emerges From Ocean – And It's About to Vanish Again. The tip of the transient island. (NASA Earth Observatory images by Wanmei Liang, using Landsat data from the US Geological Survey) A 'ghost' island that suddenly appeared in the Caspian Sea in early 2023 is playing a centuries-long game of peekaboo with scientists, and it's about to vanish once again – if it hasn't already slipped beneath the waves. Images from two NASA satellites show a time-lapse of the island's disappearing act, from its sudden emergence between January and February of 2023 to the tiny fragment left at the end of 2024. https://image.nostr.build/5e75b7aab551800542ee002d1c20c212a21152fd62ba39e80716fbac47349719.jpg NASA Kumani Bank Satellite image of the Kumani bank appearing and slowly disappearing between 2022 and 2024. (NASA Earth Observatory images by Wanmei Liang, using Landsat data from the US Geological Survey) The island is located at the tip of the Kumani bank mud volcano, located underwater off the coast of Azerbaijan. On random occasions, when this volcano blows, an island of mud breaks through the waves and reforms about 20 kilometers (12.4 miles) from the mainland. The temporary land mass was first documented in May 1861. But the next year, it was gone. In the 20th century, the island came and went at least six further times, according to records. In fact, the blob of land rarely sticks around for longer than two years, before slipping beneath the waves. Often, mud volcano eruptions are marked by huge, rocketing jets of fire, which are so intimidatingly violent, they can sometimes be mistaken for oil rig explosions. In 2023, however, the ghost island peeked its head above the waves without much of a fuss. https://image.nostr.build/776970dbd01a22ea80ac9774e99d0653fba33ee6a9c9338659ce6d72b681ec24.jpg Kumani Bank The location of Kumani Bank in the Caspian sea off the coast of Azerbaijan. (NASA Earth Observatory images by Wanmei Liang, using Landsat data from the US Geological Survey) "A new island suddenly appeared last year, which is amazing," wrote geophysicist and mud volcano enthusiast Mark Tingay on Threads in November of 2024. "But what is even more amazing is that nobody seemed to notice!" By nobody, Tingay meant there were no official records of the island's appearance – just satellite images he had noticed last year while studying the mud volcano hotspot that is Azerbaijan. At the time, in 2023, Tingay said he couldn't find any news, social media, or internet mentions of the island's various names in Azeri, Russian, or English. On January 10, 2025, NASA picked a picture of the ghost island as its image of the day. This wasn't the only time that the Kumani island has caught scientists by surprise, either. Tingay says the Kumani mud volcano also formed an island without a fireball in 1993, and it, too, went officially unreported. Satellite images, however, clearly show it was visible at that time. "In this current information age, where everyone is so instantly connected, it is also rather incredible that an island can pop up just 20km off the coast and no one even says anything about it!" writes Tingay on Threads.

The future of self-custody lies in solutions that empower asset owners to manage their own keys while mitigating risks. Asset owners will seek out configurations that offer both single and multi-signature options, allowing them to recover funds even if they lose some or all of their private keys. Smart Vaults will emerge as a popular self-custody solution, featuring a timelock mechanism that activates a rescue key. This enables access through a separate key pair after a specified period, providing a safety net if primary keys are lost or compromised. Regular key maintenance by a service provider will help keep these setups secure. The underlying technology powering these Smart Vaults is Miniscript, a domain-specific language scripts that simplifies the creation and management of complex multi-sig arrangements. Additionally, users will have the ability to set extended timelocks of several months or more. If primary keys are lost during this period, a collaborative custody arrangement will be implemented, where the service provider assists in fund recovery without ever being able to access the assets independently. Even if the service provider ceases operations, user-friendly self-custody setups built on #Miniscript will ensure that asset owners can still access their funds at any time, without relying on a third party. This level of autonomy and control over one's digital assets will be a key driver in the future of self-custody solutions. 👇🏻 🔑 Secure #Bitcoin with ease 🔑 Protection from loss/theft 🔑 Personalized onboarding 🔑 Pass on wealth with confidence Next level #bitcoin consulting with nostr:npub1zxsucpq7g3a9m4dzlgqc69rwc7pra5nz0hsgrnya5wg46nuatj5qus2knw https://21stcapital.com/banksith nostr:npub1h92cyledfrq2tr50ln3mav86ajqx9yzmlaq50wp5lrfzk74zhymsesqa8u nostr:npub1heqkxm37d5h7n8sx2gqdez5sxnu39qrylhxnnd66dxpu4e2ufyysdkkx28 💜 https://video.nostr.build/a4a7e155e19d67ffc887ca3ab9703b180b85cec613f3053c3649cb4a4bdb4f69.mp4

I learned early as a child, that I could only depend on myself. Those that were supposed to protect me, teach me, never had the strength to do it. I was in control of whether I made it. I never sought pity, special favours, or help. Now, I’ve got one person I trust, and six that depend on me. I’m back on the circle, right where I should be. #olas365 #photography #epicnature #picstr
