June 14 (via Brazilian Media) – The Brazilian Superior Court of Justice (STJ) recently rejected a release request for Mirelis Yoseline Diaz Zerpa, a defendant tied to the "Bitcoin Pharaoh" Glaidson Acácio dos Santos case. Zerpa’s defense team had previously applied to have her detention converted to house arrest, claiming the prison could not provide a vegan diet. In its ruling, the court noted that dietary preferences are personal choices, and facilities can make reasonable adjustments within their capabilities. However, the court added that this concern does not constitute a legal reason to lift her preventive detention. Case files reveal Zerpa spent nearly four years as a fugitive in the United States before being deported to Brazil over visa-related issues and detained again. Prosecutors accuse her of involvement in leading a criminal organization and related financial crimes linked to operations named "Kryptos," "Valeta," and "Flyer One." Furthermore, court documents state Zerp

On June 14, self-proclaimed "White-Haired Stock God" Serenity published an article summarizing his observations on global market investment behaviors, which sparked widespread discussions among market participants. In the piece, Serenity pointed out that Chinese investors tend to favor short-term trading and trend-following strategies—an inclination deeply shaped by the historical volatility of China's A-share market, making them highly responsive to short-term trading approaches. By contrast, U.S. investors show a strong preference for "future narrative assets," have a higher tolerance for asset valuations, and lean toward betting heavily on technology and innovation-driven concepts. The European market, he noted, focuses more on long-term issues like environmental concerns and resource constraints (such as water scarcity and sustainability challenges), remains relatively cautious about the expansion of emerging industries like AI, and centers its time dimension on short-to-m

June 14, via Chinese state broadcaster CCTV — Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Baghaei said Wednesday that Iran’s steps to ensure safe navigation through the Strait of Hormuz are aimed not only at protecting the country’s national security but also at supporting the international community’s shared interests. He added that Iran is entitled to charge a fee for the services it provides in the strategically vital waterway. Earlier Wednesday, Iranian National Security Council Vice Chairman Naboyan announced that under an Iran-U.S. memorandum of understanding he has reviewed, all commercial vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz will resume unimpeded passage with no restrictions.

June 14 — Galaxy Research’s monitoring data shows the Bitcoin network completed its latest difficulty adjustment at block height 953,568 today. The adjustment lowered the network’s mining difficulty by 10.09%, falling from 138.96T to 124.93T. This ranks as the 11th largest single difficulty drop in Bitcoin’s history and the second-biggest decline since 2026. The adjustment cycle lasted 15.6 days, notably longer than the protocol’s standard 14-day target period. Research points out Bitcoin’s price dropped roughly 15% in June, squeezing miners’ profit margins. This led some mining operations to go offline, reducing the network’s overall hash rate and triggering the difficulty readjustment. Galaxy Research notes this reflects Bitcoin’s typical pressure transmission mechanism during a price downturn: falling prices drive mining power to exit the network, which in turn prompts a difficulty adjustment to restore a dynamic equilibrium for miner profitability and network security.

June 14 — U.S. military sources, speaking to CCTV, revealed that back in May, U.S. officials drafted an operation to send ground troops into Iran to forcibly seize Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile. The plan was ultimately abandoned, and now the U.S. military is working on a new strategy to secure Iran’s enriched uranium, per details shared June 12 by two U.S. officials. On June 12, those two officials stated that Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman General Mark Milley rushed back to U.S. Central Command on May 19 to receive a full briefing on the plot to seize Iran’s enriched uranium. Under that scheme, the U.S. military planned to take hold of the enriched uranium, which is buried deep underground in tunnels at Iranian nuclear facilities in Isfahan and Natanz. Milley later presented the plan directly to President Trump, who rejected it after being warned the operation could trigger “severe Iranian retaliation, drag the conflict out, and roil global economic markets.” U.S. military asses
