This year, heβs taking on the NYC Marathon to continue that mission and support ALS research through ALS ONE & ALS Network. Support Ryanβs run and help advance the fight against ALS.

Run For Hal Lugano π¨π
Proof of work. The 1% of the 1% of the 1%. It takes a seriously low time preference to be a bitcoiner, get up before sunrise in the dark and cold, and run for Hal.
What a fantastic turnout for our third year by the lake. Thank you to everyone who ran, and bonus kudos to the two who completed their first 5km π And as we finished, the sky turned a warm orange. A message from Hal? π§‘

Noderunners have started uploading the talks and panels from this year's conference.
The Importance of Privacy panel was recorded inside the Koepelgevangenis, a former panopticon prison in Arnhem. Fitting venue for a privacy panel.
It opens with a message from @leamuirleyn, wife of Samourai Wallet dev @keonne. Then @KevinR4v, Rob Netzke (@2140_dev) & @_BLOCKNERD_ get into silent payments, CoinJoin vs PayJoin, address reuse, buying sats peer-to-peer with Vexl, and private broadcast in Bitcoin Core.
Privacy is not a crime. Run your own node. π§‘

BANKS ARE THE BIGGEST MONEY LAUNDERERS ON THE PLANET. JPMORGAN TOLD THE SENATE IT'S SOMEONE ELSE.
Not one of their CEOs went to prison.
In 2020, 2,100 leaked bank reports showed the banks themselves flagging over $2 trillion in suspicious money between 1999 and 2017. They moved it anyway.
Here's what they've owned up to.
TD Bank left 92% of its transactions unmonitored for six years. $18.3 trillion. Pleaded guilty.
Wachovia, now Wells Fargo, failed to monitor $420 billion from Mexican currency exchanges. Fine: $160 million.
About $200 billion ran through a single Danske Bank branch in Estonia, much of it suspicious. Pleaded guilty.
BNP Paribas moved $8.8 billion for Sudan, Iran and Cuba. Pleaded guilty.
Standard Chartered was accused of hiding $250 billion in Iran deals from New York regulators. Settled.
Deutsche Bank let $10 billion slip out of Russia through "mirror trades".
HSBC moved at least $881 million in drug money.
JPMorgan kept Jeffrey Epstein as a client until 2013, five years after his conviction. It reported over $1 billion of his transactions as suspicious. A month after he died.
And this Tuesday, Bank of America admitted it willfully broke anti-money laundering law. Over $5 billion in suspicious transactions it didn't report on time. Treasury says it "prioritized its revenues." Fine: $1.2 billion. Profit that quarter: $6.9 billion.
The US Attorney General said it out loud in 2013. Some banks are so big "it does become difficult to prosecute them."
That's Jamie Dimon in the video, at the Senate in 2023. Watch who he blames.
Deposit more than $10,000 in cash and your bank reports you to the government.
Let $18.3 trillion go unchecked and you get a fine.
Two sets of rules. Guess which one you're on.
Congratulations to Bitcoin Runners founder Richard on finishing 3rd in his age category at the 3-LΓ€nder Half Marathon on Sunday in 1:27:40 (4:09 min/km) π₯
The half starts in Lindau, Germany, and finishes in Bregenz, Austria, while the full marathon also crosses into Switzerland.
More than 11,500 runners took part across all distances on the shores of Lake Constance, with thousands more lining the route.
Running bitcoin 21km without borders. Now thatβs #ProofOfWork! π§‘
Let's #RunForFreedom! π§‘ Chiang Mai, 22 Nov, 5K/10K/21K. Sign up before 31 Oct. Together. Stronger. πͺ
Every one of these large scale runs from the past year is our proof of work, built to make the @BitcoinRunners of the world proud.
Each one is a chance to be a positive touchpoint for someone in their own fight for freedom, whatever that looks like for them.
Huge congratulations to Rachel & Christian representing Bitcoin Runners at the 2026 @ChiMarathon. Thanks to everyone who gave them a cheer on the course.
Rachel: 3:00:19 πππ
Christian: 3:05:36 πππ
What a Chicago debut for these two legends!
