Bitcoin only works if people use it. Today at @Blocks, we’re making that easier: • New @Bitkey with 100% more screen • 5% BTC Back with @CashApp at @Square merchants • Turn P2P payments into bitcoin on @CashApp • Soon, NFC tap to pay and bitcoin toggle on @Square • Proof of Reserves you can verify This is how bitcoin becomes everyday money.

The fiat system should stop sabotaging itself. Bitcoin banking rules would improve bank net interest margins and lower interest rates for borrowers. Our comments for the Basel 3 implementation


Even more concerning news today on the Bitcoin tax front. We’re going to need the Cyber Hornets for this one. 👇 Today’s new draft **leaves the double taxation on bitcoin mining in place** and only provides relief to staking. So now the proposal is: - De minimis for stablecoins but not Bitcoin - Fixing tax treatment for “passive validation” (I.e. staking) but not Bitcoin mining This contradicts all prior proposals on this issue. This is not tech neutral and picks winners and losers for no reason. Full statement from BPI coming soon about @RepHorsford and @RepMaxMiller’s draft. We need strong community push back to show that this language sets America and Bitcoin back.


The IRS just created a new crypto audit form designed to make you incriminate yourself. They're sending a new "Historical Digital Asset Form" that lists 100+ exchanges and self-custody wallets: Coinbase, Binance, Kraken, FTX, Mt. Gox, MetaMask, Ledger, Trezor, and demands you check YES or NO for every single one. Then sign it under penalty of perjury. This isn't a tax form. It's a mapping exercise. They don't just want to know what you traded last year. They want a complete picture of everywhere your crypto has ever touched going back years. The catch: there's no right way to fill it out. Forget a platform you used once in 2017? That's perjury. Disclose everything? You just gave them a roadmap for new lines of inquiry. Don't respond? They'll issue a summons. This is coming alongside Form 1099-DA, which means exchanges are now reporting directly to the IRS. They're cross-referencing what they already know with what you tell them, and looking for gaps. If you get this form, do not fill it out without a tax attorney. This is exactly the kind of overreach that pushes people toward self-custody and privacy-preserving tools like Bitcoin. The government doesn't send forms like this to help you. They send them to build a case.

AI agents can write code, send emails, and make phone calls. But they still can't transact. Today we're fixing that. Releasing a new set of tools that give agents native access to the Lightning Network: lnget for automatic L402 payments, MCP for node operations, remote signing for key isolation, and scoped credentials for spending control. The machine-payable web starts now. And bitcoin makes it possible. ⚡🦞 lightning.engineering/posts/2026-02-…


Bitcoin is still about $69,000 too high ft.trib.al/s4Nwhwi | opinion



Mike Green (@profplum99) embraced bitcoin early but now he doesn't see it as an asset that democratizes wealth. He shared his latest thoughts on $BTC, and why it could end like a winner-take-all Monopoly game.

This afternoon I testified at the Texas Senate Committee on Business and Commerce hearing in favor of SB 21, to establish a Texas Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. Thank you @DrSchwertner for introducing the bill, @LtGovTX for making it a legislative priority, and @DonnaCampbellTX for asking great questions about Bitcoin custody and security.
