US Government Declares War on Crypto Privacy with PATRIOT Act Crackdown!

by

Now, here’s where things get really thrilling. The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) is in charge of this operation, drafting a rule to officially declare crypto mixing services as a “primary money laundering concern.” Yes, folks, a “primary” one! This would give the Treasury Department the power to cut these services off from the entire US financial system. Fancy that! The good old US of A could soon be putting up walls around these services faster than you can say “decentralized finance,” prohibiting banks, exchanges, and payment processors from dealing with them.

Hades 2’s September 25 Launch is a Boon and a Curse

by

Early access periods offer wonderful chances to help developers, but because they don’t have fixed deadlines and may not meet all their objectives yet, I often find myself shifting my attention to other games that are coming out. In the period between when I stopped playing the early access version of Hades 2 and now, my excitement for its full release has grown significantly. However, in a bittersweet turn of events, Hades 2 is set to be released on September 25, which coincides with the release date of Silent Hill f.

Best PS1 Games That Aged Like Milk

by

As a retro gaming enthusiast, I gotta admit, some PlayStation 1 classics, though iconic, can be a tad challenging for today’s gamers to truly enjoy due to their dated elements like voice acting, controls, and graphics. While they’re not poorly designed per se, they seem to hail from a different era that’s harder for modern players to connect with.

In the world of One Piece, it’s widely acknowledged that the Yonko represent the four most powerful pirate crews. They were formally recognized following the events of the Water 7 arc.
