FY 2024-25 Advance Australia received $13.5M in donations, but $8.2M remains undisclosed—“dark money” from billionaires like Gina Rinehart and James Packer. Hancock Prospecting, the O’Neil family, and private trusts funnelled millions into anti-immigration ads that helped dismantle the Greens.
This is not just political spending—it’s a shadow network shaping Australia’s future. $AUSPOL

One Nation's @Mark_Burns_1N chose "vetting" as his hill to die on. Interesting choice for a party with rape, electoral fraud & criminal convictions in its documented history.
If you're going to campaign on vetting others, your own house needs to be clean. It isn't. Episode 1 of more to come. The receipts are in — watch the video. 🔥

Cyber attackers increasingly target SMBs because they are often the easiest path into larger supply chains. As cyberattacks are ramping up,Small and Medium Businesses (SMBs) are feeling the pressure and asking what they can do to better protect themselves in reasonable ways.
Don’t accept failure. There is a reasonable path forward. See the full post for SMB cybersecurity best practices.

Web3 is like a shared notebook on the internet that everyone can see and verify, but no single company owns.
In Web2, companies like Meta Platforms or Google control the platforms and your data.
With Web3, users keep ownership through technologies like Blockchain. So instead of companies controlling the internet, the users collectively do
Learn With Hatty is coming together bit by bit. I am working on a fun website that helps people learn about our solar system. You can see a part of it at the end of the video. It has a lot of work that needs to be done but it is fun watching it come together. Remember I have no coding experience. Wild what is capable these days just by typing in some prompts. What are you building? Share your project in the comments. I would love to check it out.

Spanish MEP Irene Montero called Trump "the Hitler of the 21st century" in the European Parliament and told him to send his own children to Iran.
“Send your son, Donald Trump, if you want war. Send your own people to the front line. "We in Spain want our children at home, safe. Those who want war should send their own children."
She also demanded that Spain leave NATO, saying "the U.S. and Israel are the main threats to global security”

📊 Crypto Knowledge: What Is Cryptocurrency?
Cryptocurrency is a type of digital money that works on a technology called Blockchain. Unlike traditional money issued by governments, cryptocurrencies operate on decentralized networks, meaning no single bank or authority controls them.
The first and most popular cryptocurrency is Bitcoin, which was introduced in 2009. Since then, thousands of other cryptocurrencies have been created, including Ethereum and Binance Coin.
The Turkish Ministry of Defense has announced that a U.S. Army MIM-104 “Patriot” Surface-to-Air Missile System has been deployed to the Malatya Province of Southeastern Turkey, near NATO’s Kürecik Radar Station, which operates as an early-warning radar against ballistic missile attacks and was used to help detect, track, and intercept at least two Iranian ballistic missiles in the last few days over Turkey.
Three years ago I did not own a laptop. I only had a small phone with a cracked screen and a lot of curiosity.
One evening I searched how people make money on the internet.
That simple search opened a new world for me. I started learning writing crypto and online skills step by step.
Months later I earned my first money online. It was small but it proved something important. Opportunities exist for those who keep learning showing up and believing their moment will come.
Bitcoin still seems stuck in a tight price box, and it feels like there might be more room to the downside.
What’s really interesting is watching how BTC behaves within the broader global macro environment.
It’s becoming a good indicator of how markets are processing uncertainty. 📉🌍
The history of medical laboratories dates back to ancient civilizations, with significant advancements over the centuries.
- Ancient Egypt (1500 BCE): Early forms of laboratory testing, like urine analysis.
- Greece (400 BCE): Hippocrates emphasized clinical observation and lab tests.
The latest updates on blockchain are quite exciting! Here are some key trends and developments:
- *Layer-2 Solutions and Scalability*: Blockchain networks like Ethereum are leveraging layer-2 technologies to improve transaction speed and affordability, driving mass adoption.
- *Tokenization of Real-World Assets*: Converting physical assets into digital tokens on blockchain is gaining traction, making investments more accessible and transparent.
Sidra Chain......It's a Sharia-compliant (Islamic finance-aligned) Layer 1 blockchain platform forked from Ethereum, using Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus. It focuses on ethical, interest-free , transparent decentralized finance, targeting the global Islamic economy by avoiding haram sectors like gambling or alcohol.
Native Token: SDA (Sidra Digital Asset), used for transaction fees, trading on Sidra DEX , liquidity pools, accessing services like Sidra Bank, and even automated zakat obligations
"Who says you need a huge backyard to grow your own food? 🌿
I turned some old styrofoam fruit boxes and black plastic liners into a mini 'supermarket' on my porch! These are Shinta Mustard Greens (Choy Sum) grown using a simple hydroponic wick system.
The best part? This specific variety is super crunchy and has zero bitterness compared to the stuff you buy at the store. They’re about 25 days old now and almost ready for the dinner table. Fresh, organic, and cost-free! 🥬✨

Why did Meta buy a social network for AI agents? 🤖
Meta just acquired Moltbook, a platform where AI agents can post, comment, vote and exchange solutions with each other.
The AI race is no longer only about building better models.
It’s also about controlling the environments where these systems interact and learn.
What happens when the next major social network isn’t made for humans, but for machines talking to each other? 🤔
The world is currently facing several pressing political issues. One of the major concerns is the escalating conflict in the Middle East, with the war in the region costing $1 billion a day and straining humanitarian operations worldwide. The UN has warned that aid supplies to Gaza and sub-Saharan Africa are being affected, and the conflict is disrupting supply chains and slowing the delivery of life-saving assistance ¹ ².
Working in Web3 growth you start noticing some patterns.
Many projects don’t fail because of bad ideas, they fail because they can’t sustain themselves.
I wrote a short piece about this:
how product, community, narrative, and revenue connect to create sustainable growth in Web3.
A few thoughts on moving beyond hype and building ecosystems that actually last.

Stryker, a major medical equipment provider for the healthcare sector, has suffered a destructive cyberattack that wiped corporate data and severed employee access, likely from an Iranian sponsored hacking group.
The attack appears to have been a digital decapitation hack, at the administrator access-level, that wiped internal systems data, including corporate endpoint devices and phones.
Saudi Arabia, UAE and other Gulf States have received a barrage of attacks by Iran in retaliation of the US-Israel unprovoked strikes.
These countries went into written pacts with the US (allowing the establishment of US military bases in their domains) for protection against such attacks.
To their greatest shock, the US rather concentrated their resources in the defence of Israel while the Iranian missiles rained down on them.
Computers have evolved through several generations, each marked by significant tech advancements.
Generations of Computers:
1.First (1940s-1950s): Vacuum tubes, huge machines like ENIAC.
Example: ENIAC (1946)
Characteristics: Large, slow, unreliable.
2.Second (1950s-1960s): Transistors replaced vacuum tubes.
Example: IBM 7094
Characteristics: Smaller, faster, more re

Evolution of the web and its connection to crypto.
Web Evolution
- Web1 (1990-2004): The "read-only" internet, where users could only view static content.
- Web2 (2004-present): The "read-write" internet, enabling user-generated content and social media.
- Web3 (emerging): The "read-write-own" internet, focusing on decentralization, blockchain, and user control.
On the mindset required:
"True entrepreneurship isn't just about having the idea; it's about having the conviction to invest your own time and capital into making it a reality.
On the relationship between the two:
"Entrepreneurship is the vehicle that builds the future, and investment is the fuel that allows it to leave the garage.
Here's a thread on how to start with Web3:
1. *Learn the basics*: Understand blockchain, crypto, and decentralization.
