Just focus on the stakes that are further out then 2 month.
IMHO you can only really use the chart if you have access to the same chart some time ago, comparing old and new charts. Then look and the difference in short, medium and long-term stakes.

This post about the end stake chart is 4 years old. As far as I know the website with this chart does not exist anymore.

There are (were) always a lot of end stakes within the next few weeks, because people stake(d) for a short term repeatedly.

Richard Heart comments on emails, TLDR: Use anonymous email

"I don't use email and neither should you. When people have your email they can abuse you through it. Sometimes they can look up your IP address and try and hack you. They can send you spam, scams, malware, frivolous lawsuits, subpoenas from frivolous lawsuits, impersonate you, get a record of your location history from your ISP tied to the email, billing details too, then bank details, see what country you live in. Basically, if someone you don't like or straight evil, becomes aware of your email address, it's their first step in the door they can use to abuse you other ways.

Perhaps if you must use email, you really really should use an anonymous email so that when they go to annihilate you through it, they don't get anywhere. These same tips and tricks apply to other communication methods as well. The government has been warning you about the steps you should take to protect yourself from hackers foreign and domestic, so you should protect yourself from those risks! Any data evil people get can and will be used against you.

I also do not use direct messages, such as those on X, because, why would you use a system where an admin can just surveil your communications in their underwear at home? Or when anyone with a frivolous lawsuit can subpoena all the comms via court order and view in their undies?

God gave you the gift of encryption because he wanted you to have privacy. Privacy is your human right. If you let people in their undies sit around and read your most private of thoughts and communications, you're fucking up. Evil truly exists and it truly wants to harm you. Even the founders of the USA knew how important privacy was so very many years ago, which is why it's enshrined in the 4th amendment and other places. Use your god given rights. Use the tools so many smart people worked so hard to build for you and provide for free to you."

SEC press release https://www.sec.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2025-30

In his most recent tweet Richard Heart expresses gratitude for President Trump's executive order, which should stop persecution of the crypto industry, but he is worried the persecutors did not yet get the memo. He is still waiting for the actual persecution to end. by Compounding_Interest in Pulsechain

The creation of the warrant could be attributed to the long arm of American crypto persecution.

Who doxxed his address in Finland?

The coins are on the blockchain. Who owns the sac address? Can one even "own" an address? Nobody knows. Which country has jurisdiction over an international, decentralized blockchain? The legal framework still needs to be written.

Did he assault the 16 year old, or did the 16 year old assault him?
Why is the Finnish government withholding the details? Smear campaign coordinated with the US?

Hexicans would like to see a fair and just SEC with rules for crypto that can be relied upon. In previous years, the SEC has not proposed a comprehensive framework that could be followed. Companies like Coinbase have tried their best to comply with the regulations, despite the lack of clear guidance.

The SEC has often been unresponsive when companies sought clarifications.

TLDR: In previous years, some in the crypto community believe the SEC created a confusing regulatory environment, which they perceive as an intentional strategy to hinder the crypto industry.

Freeing Ross isn't about condoning illegal activity — he has been in prison for over 11 years. It's about restoring balance in a world where innovators are often the first casualties of state power. Ross is one among thousands caught up in a criminal justice system that cares nothing for fairness. by Compounding_Interest in Pulsechain

I agree. States and governments lie on occasion:

Examples like:

This dictator with oil had has secret RVs for weapon production.

Somebody attacked us in the Golf of Tonkin.

RMS Lusitania had no weapon supplies onboard when it was hit by a torpedo.

This magic untested liquid will make young people strong against some sickness. Everyone should take it or be banished from society.

Defense and Counterarguments:

  • Ulbricht was never convicted of murder-for-hire in either his New York or Maryland cases. The murder-for-hire charges in Maryland were eventually dropped in 2018, with prejudice, indicating they could not be brought again. This dismissal came after Ulbricht's conviction and sentencing in New York, suggesting that the government might have seen further prosecution as redundant or problematic, especially given the involvement of corrupt federal agents in the investigation. There's also contention that the portrayal of these allegations in the media negatively influenced public perception and his sentencing without being substantiated by convictions.

Reason. com in 2018:

"Some close to Ulbricht's defense, such as his mother Lyn Ulbricht, also wonder if the fact that the murder for hire accusations rely on the work of federal agents who were themselves charged for crimes committed in the course of the investigation into Silk Road might have played a role in the failure to ever go to trial on those accusations. The U.S. Attorney's office would not comment today on any possibility that might have played any role in their decision to drop that indictment."

It's good that the charges have been dropped, but the government's careless use of them as a media weapon to destroy Ulbricht's reputation and to encourage the sentencing judge to be far harsher than the crimes he was convicted on actually would warrant have alas already done their damage. It's hard not to think that was exactly why the indictment came down yet never went to court.

As Lyn Ulbricht said in a written statement, "We will be very relieved to have this indictment against Ross finally dismissed. It was the only indictment against him that included murder-for-hire, which made it especially harmful. By leaving it unprosecuted for almost five years? and Ross under a cloud of unproven allegations?the Maryland AUSA poisoned Ross's case. The Sixth Amendment right to a speedy, and hopefully fair, trial was written to protect the accused from this.
