On December 21, the Communist Party of Cuba issued a statement on its official website on the 20th, condemning the US governments escalation of aggression against Venezuela in the strongest terms and accusing the US of its recent actions in Venezuela of being a deliberately planned and dangerous act.SpaceX: Public safety is always our top priority during flight tests. We will continue to ensure that public safety is maximized.On December 21, six sources familiar with U.S. intelligence said that a U.S. intelligence report continues to warn that Russian President Vladimir Putin has not abandoned his goal of occupying the whole of Ukraine and reclaiming the European parts of the former Soviet Union. This report contrasts sharply with the account given by U.S. President Donald Trump and his Ukrainian peace negotiators, who claim Putin wants to end the conflict. According to one of the sources, the latest report was dated late September. This intelligence also contradicts Putins denial of posing a threat to Europe. According to the sources, this intelligence is largely consistent with the views of European leaders and intelligence agencies that Putin covets the entire territory of Ukraine and former Soviet states, including some NATO member states.December 21 - According to the Japan Meteorological Agency, a 5.5-magnitude earthquake struck off the eastern coast of Aomori Prefecture, Japan, at approximately 10:29 a.m. local time on December 21. The maximum tremor was felt as a 4, and the epicenter was 50 kilometers deep.On December 21, the United States intercepted another oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela, which the Venezuelan government called an act of piracy. Jeremy Paner, a partner at the Washington-based law firm Hughes Hubbard and a former investigator with the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), said the ship was not subject to U.S. sanctions. “The seizure of a vessel not sanctioned by the United States marks a further increase in pressure on Venezuela by Trump,” Paner said. “This also contradicts Trump’s statements that the U.S. will blockade all sanctioned oil tankers.”

Cryptoverse: Let’s talk about DEX, baby

Since Sam Bankman-FTX, Fried's a significant centralized crypto exchange, abruptly collapsed, conventional bankers and investors have been calling for increased regulation.


On the other hand, some cryptocurrency players are emulating the original crypto vision of Satoshi Nakamoto, the person who created Bitcoin, by bypassing the financial middlemen and turning to decentralized exchanges, where traders transact peer-to-peer on the blockchain.


According to statistics from market tracker DeFi Llama, on Nov. 10, as FTX collapsed, overall daily trading volumes on DEXs, including the likes of Uniswap, jumped as high as $12 billion, their biggest level since May. However, gains have since been reversed.


According to CryptoCompare, four days later, November volumes had eclipsed the entire previous month.


In the meantime, CryptoCompare data reveals that weekly bitcoin flows from controlled exchanges, or CEXs, saw their largest-ever net outflow, with 97,805 currency moving off platforms in the seven days leading up to Nov. 13.


According to Varun Kumar, CEO of the decentralized cryptocurrency exchange Hashflow, "it is now obvious that there can be risk involved with retaining assets in a centralized company." According to data, customers are increasingly using decentralized trading platforms.


However, DEXs may not always be safer than their centralized competitors, and unskilled investors may be exposed to significant risks.


Instead of routing money through a middleman or centralized authority, users can exchange tokens directly amongst each other using blockchain-based smart contracts.


As a result, just like other decentralized finance (DeFi) or Web3 systems, there is no central authority and, for better or worse, investors are in charge of their transactions, settlements, and coin or token storage.


When compared to traditional exchanges on Wall Street, CEXs like Coinbase, Binance, and FTX operate as the middleman in transactions, making trading easier for novice investors in particular. CEXs also occasionally provide coin custody services, as did FTX.


Many centralized players have also worked to build user confidence by more transparent policies including providing evidence of their reserves.


Requests for comment from Coinbase, Binance, and FTX were not immediately fulfilled.
