UPDATE: 🇺🇸 FinCEN and the Fed’s withdrawal of their plan to cut the tracking threshold for cross-border crypto transfers from $3,000 to $250 takes effect TOMORROW. Financial institutions however must still share customer and transaction details on covered transfers of $3,000 or more, as the threshold remains. The withdrawal comes after regulators received nearly 3,000 comments, with many raising privacy and compliance concerns. They also cited changes in crypto regulation, including the GENIUS Act. Any similar proposal would go back out for public comment.

Update. My GitHub acct is back after being suspended without warning and it took 11 days for them to restore my account (and they definitely didn’t email me!)…so I didn’t know my account was unlocked for a week. Hope my friends got their accounts unlocked. @kokaubeam @Ice_Cliffs @rootediz @saintnick

UPDATE: Poland’s Interior Minister Marcin Kierwiński says the attacker who opened fire in Kraków’s Main Market Square most likely acted alone and held very radical views investigators are currently searching his home. The attack took place shortly after 3:00 p.m. According to the minister, police officers opened fire on the attacker just three minutes after receiving the first emergency call. Firefighters and ambulance crews also arrived within three minutes. Six people were killed and 15 injured. A foreign national was among those identified as victims. A total of 16 people are currently hospitalised, including the attacker and two police officers who are seriously wounded. Both officers are very young, aged 24 and 27. The attacker also sustained critical injuries and underwent a second operation this evening. According to details reported by TVP Info, two police patrols were following the suspect’s Subaru when he crashed into a police vehicle and opened fire on officers. He reportedly shot both officers before one of them managed to return fire, bringing him to the ground. Polish authorities have also dismissed misinformation surrounding the incident, confirming that the attacker had never served as a soldier in the Polish Armed Forces.

UPDATE | 🇪🇺 More than 50 flights across Europe have been affected by bomb threats this week. At least 18 flights were affected on Friday alone, including nine arriving at or departing from Prague Airport. Several aircraft have been diverted, others searched after landing, and fighter jets have been scrambled to escort passenger flights. So far, security inspections have found no explosives. The disruption has also extended beyond aviation. Media organisations in Ireland and the UK received separate threats on Friday, prompting evacuations and police investigations. The scale is unusual, even if the affected flights represent a tiny fraction of European air traffic. A relatively simple threat can trigger expensive security procedures across multiple countries.

UPDATE: At least five aircraft have been targeted by bomb threats this morning across Europe: ✈️ 🇮🇪🇵🇹 Ryanair — Rome to Lisbon ✈️ 🇨🇿🇮🇹 Wizz Air W46136 — Prague to Rome, diverted to Venice ✈️ 🇨🇿🇷🇴 TAROM RO226 — Prague to Bucharest, carrying 102 passengers ✈️ 🇩🇰 Two aircraft at Copenhagen Airport All aircraft were inspected and, as in the previous incidents, no explosives were found.
