Jim Cramer is actively warning people to stay away from Coinbase stock now. He believes regulation is going to destroy exchanges and likely have a negative effect on the price of cryptocurrencies. I think there’s some genuine concern in this area, but inverse Cramer fans are definitely doing better than those taking his advice. ...

Given that the name was fake, people suspect the birthday is made up, too. But they have also noticed that April 5 is a very significant date in U.S. monetary history: It is the anniversary of Executive Order 6102 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1933. The order outlawed the private ownership or "hoarding" of gold coin, bullion and certificates. People were allowed small amounts valued under $100 at the time, for use in industrial trades, or a few other exceptions.

In another likely allusion to the history of U.S. private gold ownership, Satoshi listed their birth year as 1975. On the final day of 1974, President Gerald Ford's reversal of Executive Order 6102 went into effect, making it legal to own as much gold as you wanted as the revelers rang in the new year of 1975.

Or maybe Satoshi really was born on April 5, 1975.

I lived in New York City for decades and drank tap water every day.  NYC has some of the best tap water in the world, especially considering that it sits at sea level.
The water comes from upstate aquifers which are heavily regulated.

People who live in countries with clean tap water should be grateful.

Several cities in the U.S. have used a similar system called indirect potable reuse, or IPR, for decades.

In that system, sewage water is treated at a wastewater treatment plant, which cleans it to a level that meets the standards for irrigation, or for watering land and crops. The water then gets sent to an advanced purification facility, which McCurry says cleans the water even more, typically putting it through a three-step process that ensures it meets or even exceeds state and federal standards for drinking water quality.

By this point, the water is clean. Still, it then goes into an “environmental buffer” like an underground aquifer, where it can spend months or even years to undergo further filtration. Finally, it goes to a drinking water system for distribution

Have you got a nutritional/mineral profile of that mineral water?

Drinking water will be even more important on a global scale than it even is today.
It's something so basic and essential, we might run into big problems if the natural supplies become endangered.

The idea of drinking water that was recently sewage swirling down your toilet bowl, shower drain, or kitchen sink may sound pretty icky. But experts say it’s actually nothing to be squeamish about — and it might be coming to your state and city soon.

It’s a water recycling method known as direct potable reuse, or DPR, which sends highly treated sewage water almost directly to a drinking water system for distribution to communities. It’s legal in Texas, and legal on a case-by-case basis in Arizona. Multiple other states are in the process of formulating regulations to legalize it too, including California, Colorado, and Florida.

The water produced by DPR meets federal drinking water quality standards, experts say. And there’s a growing movement to urge people to warm up to the idea of DPR and other sewage recycling methods, which were once dismissively labeled “toilet-to-tap.”

Swiss prosecutors have opened an investigation into the sudden takeover of the country's second-largest bank, Credit Suisse, by its rival, UBS.

The deal, when it was announced, valued Credit Suisse at $3.15bn (£2.6bn), whereas on the Friday before the settlement was reached it had been valued at about $8bn.
