FLORIDA GOVERNOR: PAY TAXES WITH CRYPTOCURRENCIES!



The lawyer and politician Ron DeSantis, who is the 46th governor of Florida, is openly in favor of a state institution that accepts fees and taxes with cryptocurrencies. He would like to pursue the global drive for digitization and also expand the possibilities in the state for digital payments.

In the draft budget for 2022-23, Ron DeSantis announced that companies could pay government fees and taxes with cryptocurrencies. A separate department is to be created for this. This then only specializes in accepting various fees in crypto currencies. This is a clear sign of the seriousness of cryptocurrencies and how they can be integrated into the real economy.

In the draft budget he stated:

Florida promotes cryptocurrencies as a means of trading and promoting business attractiveness and economic growth. 

The lawyer sees Florida's future as crypto-friendly. Now at the beginning it is important to set up different departments that carry out specific work in this direction. The use is to take place via blockchain pilot projects.

Florida is going crypto-friendly

In the past, politicians have been noticed repeatedly with crypto-friendly actions in Florida. The Mayor of Miami, Francis Suarez, has also campaigned for Bitcon. He's already getting part of his salary in BTC today and would also like to convert part of his own 401k pension plan into Bitcoin. But Florida is also a pioneer in the private sector. Because in addition to eToro, Blockchain.com and FTX, many smaller crypto companies can be found in Florida and Miami.

In a speech on Thursday in Tallahassee, he said:

We believe the state government welcomes this and we want to make sure that the state government is crypto-friendly. 

States are moving towards digitization

Due to Corona, a strong change in direction to digitization can be seen all over the world. In Europe, it is no longer possible to move around without a digital passport. Digital registrations are also mandatory for everyone when traveling to a different country. This change also casts a new picture on digital assets such as cryptocurrencies. In the United States, many states, such as Florida, recognize the benefits. But companies like General Motors are also clearly in favor of possible integration into payment transactions. 

Probably the world's largest news service Whatsapp will also soon be introducing the option of paying with cryptocurrencies in the USA. As with the fees and taxes with crypto currencies in Florida, this is also a pilot project. As soon as these are successful, nothing could stand in the way of comprehensive integration.

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin...

Phishing attack on popular crypto sites tries to empty wallets

  Several major crypto sites such as Etherscan, CoinGecko, DeFi Pulse, and others report malicious pop-ups scammers use to try to trick users into connecting their MetaMask wallets. The phishing attack came from a domain displaying the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) logo. "We are investigating the root cause of this attack to fix the threat as soon as possible," CoinGecko founder Bobby Ong tweeted. The phishing attack appears to have been triggered by a malicious ad script from Coinzilla, a crypto ad network, according to CoinGecko. Etherscan also advises its users not to confirm any transactions that may appear on the website. The attackers attempted to use the hype around the “bored monkeys” non-fungible tokens (NFT) to gain access to the cryptocurrencies of unsuspecting website visitors. Although the websites affected by the scam attempt have reacted in the last few hours and deactivated the advertising pop-up, it is still recommended not to connect your MetaMask wallet to ne...

Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs stolen through phishing on Instagram

  Bored Ape Yacht Club ( BAYC ) developers announced on Monday that hackers have hijacked the official Instagram page of the popular NFT collection and posted links to a fake airdrop. Crypto enthusiasts who connected their MetaMask wallet to the rogue website subsequently had their Ape NFTs stolen. Apparently, the attack was planned to coincide with the one-year anniversary of the BAYC collection. This increased the "perceived credibility" of the phishing link. About 100 NFTs are said to have been stolen in the phishing attack . According to CoinGecko data , the minimum price for a BAYC NFT is 139 Ether ( ETH ) or $400,726. So if reports are correct, over $40 million worth of NFTs were stolen in the attack. These numbers are only the lowest estimate, however, as they are based on the lowest price.  At the time of writing, it was still unclear how the hackers gained access to BAYC's official Instagram account. Social media users have pointed out the importance of two-fact...
