Iran just launched Hormuz Safe — a Bitcoin-settled maritime insurance platform routing $10B in Strait of Hormuz shipping AROUND SWIFT. Bitcoin is now a geopolitical settlement layer. Canada take note.Iran's Ministry of Economy quietly switched on "Hormuz Safe" on May 16 — a state-backed platform that lets shipping companies buy insurance for transit through the Strait of Hormuz and settle the premiums in Bitcoin. Coverage activates the moment the on-chain confirmation lands. The Islamic Republic is projecting more than $10 billion in annual revenue from a service explicitly designed to bypass SWIFT, dollar rails, and Western insurers. The Strait carries roughly 20% of global oil. Bitcoin is no longer a retail speculation — it's a sovereign workaround layer for the most contested chokepoint on the planet. Canadian shippers, energy traders, and compliance officers will be navigating this for years.In this episode of the Canadian Bitcoiners Podcast:🛢️ Iran's "Hormuz Safe" — Bitcoin-settled insurance for 20% of the world's oil supply⚓ Why $10B in Strait of Hormuz transit fees just became a Bitcoin demand signal🇨🇦 Carney signals openness to selling Canadian ports — sovereignty for sale🏚️ Mortgage Company of Canada halts redemptions as residential losses accelerate⚖️ Federal judge halts deportation of Humboldt Broncos truck driver after 3.5 years served🚛 Ontario AG: trucking schools delivered 59 hours of training instead of 103, 54 schools never inspected👮 OPP probes Scarborough councillor, ServiceOntario insider arrested in licence bribery sweep🤖 Claude AI cracks 9-year-old encrypted Bitcoin wallet — 5 BTC recovered from a dead college laptop⛏️ NEXUS S1 desktop miner: 10 TH/s on 100 watts — home mining gets serious🏔️ Alberta separation petition quashed by judge in First Nations challengeThe throughline this week: institutions everywhere — Iranian ministries, US state pensions, Canadian regulators, lending companies, courts — are reorganizing themselves around Bitcoin's existence. The ones that adapt get optionality. The ones that don't get bypassed. We talk about who's doing which.Sources: CoinDesk, Bitcoin Magazine, Bloomberg, The Block, Financial Times, Fars News Agency, Toronto Star, National Post, Globe and Mail, APTN News, CityNews Toronto, CP24, Cointelegraph— Canadian Bitcoiners Podcast- Website: https://canadianbitcoiners.com- X: @CDNBitcoiners- Subscribe & turn on notifications————————————————————————————————SPONSORS🔒 easyDNS — Canadian-owned, ICANN-accredited registrar that has accepted Bitcoin since 2013.

Saylor just broke Strategy's "NEVER SELL" Bitcoin rule. The $1.5B dividend math, the 11.5% yield, the Q1 -$12.5B net loss, and what it means for Canadian MSTR holders — explained.Michael Saylor told investors on Strategy's Q1 2026 earnings call that he will "probably sell some Bitcoin to pay a dividend, just to inoculate the market and send the message that we did it." Three days later he walked it back, saying the remark wasintended to "jam short-sellers and 'haters.'" Strategy holds 818,334 BTC at an average cost basis of $75,537. The annualized preferred dividend obligation is roughly $1.5 billion. Q1 net loss was $12.54 billion. Bitcoin briefly traded below $81,000 after the call.In this episode of the Canadian Bitcoiners Podcast:- The actual mechanism: buy with credit, let it appreciate, sell to fund preferreds- Why this isn't an MSTR "Ponzi" reveal — and why it kind of is- Sequans' 1,025 BTC sale, the $35.9M convertible-note pressure, and what "treasury reckoning" looks like in practice- Canada's first regulated CAD stablecoin: Tetra's CADD with Shopify and National Bank backing- Coinbase cuts 14% of staff for "AI-native pods" while the exchange goes down for an AWS chiller failure- Germany ends its 12-month Bitcoin tax exemption — €2B revenue target by 2027- The Netherlands prepares 36% tax on UNREALIZED Bitcoin gains by 2028- Bitcoin Core's first-ever memory-safety bug, CVE-2024-52911, quietly patched a year before public disclosure- Notable North: Alberta separation petition crosses 300k signatures, Honda walks from a $15B Ontario EV plant, Doug Ford sacks the Conestoga College board, Ottawa finally starts tracking which temporary residents have actually leftThe orange-pill takeaway: every "treasury company" model — Strategy, Sequans, the next wave — gets stress-tested when the dividends and debts come due in fiat. The companies that buy and never sell are betting that their cost of capital stayslower than Bitcoin's CAGR forever. Saylor just admitted that the bet has a release valve.

The "largest quantum attack on Bitcoin" just collapsed. Project Eleven paid 1 BTC for a 15-bit ECC break — but a classical computer does the same thing. Bitcoin's 256-bit security is untouched.A researcher won the Project Eleven Q-Day Prize for breaking a 15-bit elliptic curve key on a publicly accessible quantum computer, billed by the press as the "largest quantum attack on Bitcoin to date." Within 48 hours half the crypto press had it framed as Q-Day. The reality: a $300 laptop can break a 15-bit ECC key in well under a second. Bitcoin uses 256-bit ECC. The gap between 15 bits and 256 bits is roughly 2^241 — a number larger than the atoms in the observable universe. Q-Day is real as a research milestone. Q-Day is FUD as a Bitcoin threat headline today.On this episode we break down what Project Eleven actually proved, why the "1 BTC bounty" isn't what crypto media made it sound like, why Bitcoin's elliptic curve cryptography is nowhere close to being broken, and what's REALLY worth paying attention to this week — from the Litecoin MWEB 13-block reorg to the Bitcoin Core v30 wallet migration drama, the Bitcoin Knots vs. Core fork update, Shakepay's new BTC-backed loans, SEC Chair Atkins' "innovation" pivot, Kraken's 56 million IRS tax forms, and a $1.1 BILLION Canada Child Benefit story most Canadians missed this week. Plus, of course, Mark Carney's new wealth fund. What a time to be alive.🔗 SPONSORS & LINKS🟠 Bull Bitcoin — Buy Bitcoin directly to your own wallethttps://mission.bullbitcoin.com/cbp🌐 EasyDNS — Domain registration & EasyMail security.Promo Code: CBPMedia (50% off first cart)⛏️ 256 Heat — Heat your home while mining Bitcoin256heat.com📚 BTC Mentor — Bitcoin security & inheritance planninghttps://btcmentor.io/aff/90/Subscribe to Canadian Bitcoiners: https://www.youtube.com/@CanadianBitcoinersSubscribe to clips: https://www.youtube.com/@CanadianBitcoinersClipsFollow Joey: @joeytweeetsFollow Len: @TheBTCPriceBotFollow the show on X: @canadianbtcpod#Bitcoin #Quantum #QuantumComputing #ProjectEleven #QDay #BitcoinFUD #BitcoinSecurity #Cryptography #BTC #Crypto #CanadianBitcoiners

BIP 361: Bitcoin Core devs want to FREEZE Satoshi's coins — 5.6M BTC (~30%) permanently locked to stop quantum computing attacks. Is it theft or survival? The Canadian Bitcoiners Podcast debates.This week Len and Joey break down the most controversial Bitcoin proposal in years: BIP 361, the post-quantum migration plan championed by Hunter Beast that would render an estimated 5.6 million Bitcoin — including Satoshi Nakamoto's untouched stash — unspendable after a hard cutoff date.Supporters call it the only realistic defense against Shor's algorithm and a future quantum adversary capable of cracking legacy P2PKH keys. Critics call it a precedent-shattering attack on Bitcoin immutability — a civil war brewing inside Core. We walk through both sides.🎙️ THE SHOWCanadian Bitcoiners Podcast is a weekly show covering Bitcoin, macro, freedom tech, and Canadian news with a hard-money lens.
