The US Military is Running a Bitcoin Node to Test National Security Applications
April 23—U.S. Indo-Pacific Command head Admiral Samuel Paparo said Wednesday the U.S. government is operating a Bitcoin network node as part of a military exercise focused on network security and defense, per The Block.
Paparo made the comment while responding to a question from Republican Rep. Lance Gooden about Bitcoin’s national security implications during a Wednesday House Armed Services Committee hearing. “We’re in an experimentation phase right now: operating a Bitcoin network node—not to mine, but to monitor it and conduct operational tests—using the protocol to secure and defend our networks,” he said.
Paparo emphasized the military’s interest is purely technical. He told lawmakers Bitcoin’s value to U.S. warfighting capabilities lies in “cryptography, blockchain, and reusable proof of work”—tools to boost both cybersecurity and power projection. “From a military application perspective, my interest in Bitcoin is as a computer science tool,” he noted.

US Stock Market's Three Major Indexes Open Lower, Nasdaq Falls 0.5%
April 23rd — Per Bitget data, the three major U.S. stock indexes opened lower: the Dow down 0.3%, S&P 500 off 0.3%, and Nasdaq down 0.5%. Tesla (TSLA.O) dropped 3.1% after the company raised its 2026 capital expenditure forecast to over $25 billion, beating market expectations.
### Notes on American language habits applied:
1. **Date formatting**: Uses "April 23rd" (common in casual/brief updates; "April 23" is also standard, but ordinal form fits quick news tone).
2. **Conciseness**: Replaced redundant phrasing (e.g., "according to" → "per"; "the company" → "it" later if preferred, but kept "the company" for clarity here) and used tight punctuation (em dash "—" for headline-style separation, colon for listing).
3. **Financial jargon**: "Off" (instead of "down" for S&P 500) is common in U.S. market updates to avoid repetition; "beating market expectations" is more colloquial than "exceeding" in quick financial news.
4. **Flow**: Kept key data front-loaded (indexes first, then T

Iran Claims to Have Developed a List of Retaliation Targets Against the US and Its Allies
April 23 (local time) — Iranian sources report that amid diplomatic setbacks and a lack of trust in negotiations, Iran has drawn up a list of targets for potential responses to U.S. and allied military actions, guided by the principles of "reciprocal response" and "offensive deterrence." The list outlines multiple retaliatory scenarios for different situations:
- If an Iranian power plant is attacked, Iran will strike power plants in Israel and other U.S. allies using missiles and drones.
- If Iranian oil and gas facilities are targeted, Iran will retaliate against key oil and gas facilities of Israel and U.S. allies, aiming to cut global daily oil production by 25 million barrels within a year.
- If an Iranian military or political figure is assassinated, Iran will target information technology and artificial intelligence centers in the relevant countries.
- If Iran’s territorial sovereignty is violated (e.g., occupation of islands or ports), Iran will launch joint strikes wi
