The disclosure, made at a House Services committee hearing, marks the first known confirmation that a U.S. military combatant command is directly participating in the Bitcoin peer-to-peer network. “We have a node on the Bitcoin network,” Paparo wrote. “We’re doing a number of operational tests to secure and protect networks using the Bitcoin protocol.” The statement landed one day after Paparo made waves in Congress with testimony that framed Bitcoin as a tool of American power.

Check leading wicket-taker for each IPL team Jofra Archer scripted history during Rajasthan Royals’ clash against Lucknow Super Giants in IPL 2026, claiming three wickets, thus becoming the franchise’s all-time leading wicket-taker.

Tether (USDT) hit an all-time high market cap of $188Bn on April 21, 2026, widening its lead over Circle’s USDC, which sits at $78.25Bn, following a $285M hack of Solana-based Drift Protocol.

The detail most headlines are missing, though, is that this isn’t really a story about market share. It’s a story about what users do when they get scared and what that…

The safe-haven signal appears broken this week, with yields and dollar strength pulling gold steadily lower instead.

Though you may not hear it every day, chimera remains an evoca­tive word, per­haps even more so for its rar­i­ty. It descends from the Greek Khi­maira, lit­er­al­ly “year-old she-goat,” the name of a myth­i­cal fire-breath­ing crea­ture with a caprine body, sure enough, but also the head of a lion and the tail of a drag­on.

Swedish filmmaker Ragnhild Ekner is a diehard IFK Göteborg fan and was partly driven to make a documentary about ultras, a subculture of diehard football fans, following the suicide of her close friend (explored in her previous film, The Traffic Lights Turn Blue Tomorrow). Going to football matches and the people she found there helped her through the grief; it’s a sentiment expressed by countless others in the film. Ekner meets and films ultras across the globe in their stadiums and off the pitch while also using archive footage to fill the gaps. The mass organisation involved with these fanatical supporters can sometimes be…
