Japan’s regulatory bottlenecks, not taxes, are the real reason crypto innovation is leaving the country, according to Maksym Sakharov, co-founder and CEO of decentralized onchain bank WeFi. Sakharov told Cointelegraph that even if the proposed 20% flat tax on crypto gains is implemented, Japan’s “slow, prescriptive, and risk‑averse” approval culture will continue to push startups and liquidity offshore. “The 55% progressive tax is painful and very visible, but it’s not the core blocker anymore,” he said. “The FSA/JVCEA pre‑approval model and the absence of a truly dynamic sandbox are what keep builders and liquidity offshore.” Listing a token or launching…
00:00- The service economy is what drives this economy today. It’s not a goods-oriented economy. It’s not a commodity, it’s not an export-oriented, not a heavy-manufacturing– service oriented.

If you’re joining a game of pickleball, it can be easy to grab your paddle and throw on the first pair of sneakers you see. However, your favorite running shoes won’t set you up for success on the court. “Running shoes are designed to primarily move forward,” says Andrew Felsenthal, a racquet sports leader at Life Time Peachtree Corners in Georgia. “With pickleball, you move in every direction — including lots of quick, explosive direction changes — so you need a shoe designed to support those movements.” To help you find the best pickleball shoes, I asked trainers about the…
It has been far from easy for Spain’s women’s soccer players to go from being unknown to being title contenders in less than a decade. The national team has had to fight for better coaching, decent travel conditions, and modern training facilities. It paid off with a World Cup title in 2023, the Nations League crown last year, and on Sunday they face England in the European Championship final. “It has been a constant with the national team that we have had to fight for acceptable work conditions that would allow us to play at our best,” former Spain defender…

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has revealed that deportation flights have begun to depart from a remote detention facility known as Alligator Alcatraz, as the Republican leader seeks to put his state at the forefront of President Donald Trump’s immigration agenda. Speaking from the south Florida site on Friday, DeSantis framed his efforts as a model for other states seeking to partner with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). “I’m pleased to report that those flights out of Alligator Alcatraz by DHS have begun,” DeSantis told reporters. “ The reality is this provides an ability to enhance the mission, to increase the…
