Litecoin (LTC), a nine-year-old cryptocurrency whose price returns have chronically underperformed the bigger and better-known bitcoin in recent years, is hitching its wagon to a new star: privacy.

Belarus was engulfed in a wave of street protests and clashes between police and demonstrators after holding presidential elections on August 9, with forces opposing President Alexander Lukashenko accusing him of falsifying the results, and demanding a ‘peaceful handover of power’. Belarusian state television has publicized what it says is the platform of the united opposition, with the document, the authenticity of which has yet to be independently verified, said to include elements which would dramatically weaken Belarus’s relationship with Russia and move Minsk toward closer relations with the West and NATO.

The Scandinavians are known for their love of aquavit, but now they’re turning their affections to a different kind of spirit: whisky. You could argue that whisky is actually written into Scandinavian DNA. After all, their Viking ancestors frequently travelled to Scotland and Ireland. And the region’s famous liquor, aquavit, which is flavored with herbs and spices, including caraway and dill, is very similar to aquavitae, the predecessor to Scotch whisky. Perhaps, it’s the shared cold, bitter climate that makes warming up with a dram one of both Scotland’s and Scandinavia’s most cherished ways to pass a long dark evening. Whisky […]

Gonzalez’s post received almost 10,000 likes and […]
Elon Musk says he will move his Tesla plant to Texas or Nevada after the county health official closed his plant due to coronavirus.

The unelected & ignorant “Interim Health Officer” of Alameda is acting contrary to the Governor, the President, our Constitutional freedoms & just plain common sense! — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) May 9, 2020 Frankly, this is the final straw. Tesla will now move its HQ and future programs to Texas/Nevada immediately. If […]
