Germany's about to scrap tax-free Bitcoin holding. During a bear market. Read the room. Right now, the 1-year Haltefrist means you pay zero tax on BTC held longer than 12 months. There are active proposals to kill it, with a draft law possible as early as July. prohaltefrist.de is a community initiative from the German crypto scene fighting to keep it. Bundestag petition filed. 30k signatures needed, and you don't need to be German to sign. Bookmark this. Sign it when it goes live.

And @Bitwala watching over them (at least on the 19th)

Someone invites your ex and your wife to the same party. @Starknet and @Zcash are hosting a privacy event and rave together in Berlin next week. June 19th, The Blockspäti Berlin.

PEER TO PEER: JUNE 19 BERLIN 🇩🇪 The bear market is squeezing. What do you do when selling your Bitcoin means a loss, a tax bill, or both? Bitwala x Boro.today x @Greenminingdao at The Blockspäti hosted by @joinwebzero & @Zcash during @BerBlockWeek One afternoon on L-L-P: Liquidity, Lending, and Profitability. How to borrow against your BTC instead of selling it, and how miners keep the lights on when price won't cooperate. Should you ever sell your Bitcoin? You vote, we argue, and we get to change your mind in public. Dried "Bitcoin Mango." Free Visa Card if you show your Bitwala account. 📍 MENA Berlin, Skalitzer Str. 114, Berlin-Kreuzberg 📅 Friday 19 June 2026, 14:00–16:30 🎟️ luma.com/the-3hec

Bitcoin is a $1.9 trillion asset, and less than 0.5% of it participates in DeFi. 99% sits economically idle, and not because people don't want to use it, but because public finance has limits. STRK20s fix that. Privacy that works for crypto.

How to lose €260 a year: 1. Open a savings account 2. Put €10,000 in it 3. Wait 3.0% inflation. 0.4% interest. Your bank took €300 in purchasing power, gave back €40, put it on a PDF, and called it a year. A.B.A.B. Have you heard of Bitcoin?

Have the H2C and a metric ton of accessories in my cart, willing to pull the trigger if you opensource your shit, @BambulabGlobal

One random NFT picked up from Opensea nearly two years ago got me access to one of the most high signal communities in Web3 I'm super hyped about what @tyinlife and the team at Collective are building I'm not only bullish about what they're doing in Asia and beyond, but I see so much scope for bulding with IRL communities across the globe

PSA to our fellow crypto holders in the gloriously efficient bureaucracy of Deutschland. In Germany, if you hold Bitcoin for one year, your gains are tax-free. Same rule as gold, art, wine. It's been law for decades. The government wants to kill it. For crypto only. Not gold. Not wine. Just crypto. It's in the April 29 budget framework. Cabinet vote early July. If it passes, gains are taxed up to 45% regardless of holding period. This affects every private BTC holder in Germany. We DO NOT approve. Do like us and tell your MP: bitcoinsteuer.lol

GM! We forgot to tell you we have a Telegram channel now. No "gm." No rocket emoji spam. Just us, occasionally saying something useful. 🚀 Join us: t.me/bitwala_app

I win, we all lose

This is an X post from a crypto company. You know what's coming: a chart going up, "in a world where," an emoji doing too much work, a CTA nobody clicks. We wrote those. Ran them by legal. Scheduled for Tuesday at 9:14am.  Then hit delete. Instead: Bitwala supports BTC, ETH, USDC, EUR. A Visa card. €1 1% flat per trade. Alive since 2014, dead once, rebuilt right. End of post. .¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thank you @DevSodhi, and looking forward to this adventure that's bringing back memories of the previously unparalleled eclectic hackerspaces in Berlin a decade ago! Frontier Tower is #CPAF

Zcash gave you a private vault for one specific coin. Monero gave you a ski mask but no bank will let you inside. STRK20s gives you a private bank account that holds any asset and lets you trade from inside it.

Starknet is that chain that already has in production stuff that other chains tweet about adopting or building in the future. It really is Future Proof, and like all things that live in the future, it'll take time for most of you to see this.
