[EDITORIAL] Anti-dynasty bill ni Dy-Marcos: Read the fine print

2025/12/15 14:18

Parang magandang panaginip — sa wakas, may nagpanukala ng anti-dynasty bill, at hindi kung sino lang — mismong ang House Speaker at anak ng Presidente at Majority Floor Leader.

Sandro Marcos, Bojie Dy, Anti-Dynasty bill

Pero gumising muna tayo sa katotohanan: tingin ba ng dalawa, boboto ang Kongresong ito laban sa sarili nitong interest?

Kahit na sa porma nitong tila nakatuon sa fat dynasties at iiwan ang thin dynasties untouched — talaga bang palulusutin ito ng vested interests ng isang Kongresong malaking tipak ay politicontractors at fat dynasties?

Kahit na sa malabnaw na porma nito, magkakandado ito ng maraming pinto ng oportunidad (at kuwarta) para sa mga miyembro ng mga dynasty na nagpapayaman sa ninakaw sa kaban ng bayan. 

Pero tulad nga ng pagsusuri ni Rappler reporter Dwight de Leon — hindi apektado si Dy o si Marcos ng panukala sa kasalukuyang porma nito. (BASAHIN: Anti-dynasty bill from Bojie Dy, Sandro Marcos is weak, but a start)

Ngayon pa lang, kumibo na ang ilang miyembro ng dynasties na mulat tulad ng mag-asawang Hataman. Sabi nila sana’y maipasa ang “best version” ng panukalang magbibigay puwang sa bagong dugo imbes na protektahan ang umiiral na power structures.

Pero bumalik tayo sa lupa: numbers game ang Kongreso — at kung may mga Hataman, mas marami ang mga gahamang dynasts. Hindi pa naka-factor in ang Senadong mistulang siblings act.

Some say we’re too scarred by the politicontractors in flood control projects for propaganda and mind games like this. Suspetsa ng mga kritiko, smoke and mirrors lang lahat ito mula sa ningas-kugon Presidential team na magaling mag-jumpstart pero walang kuwenta pagdating sa finish line.

Pero thankfully, hindi lang naman ang Marcoses at mga Dy ang mapagpasya. Sana, mapiga ng civil society ang yugto na ito upang maipaliwanag ang isyu sa taumbayan — at nag-iisang tinig na itulak ang isang makabuluhang anti-dynasty bill. Kung hindi ngayon, sa malapit na hinaharap.

In its present form, the Dy-Marcos bill wants to trim fat dynasties but will not affect thin dynasties. Ipauubaya namin sa mga eksperto at stakeholders kung may strategically sound compromise ba sa pagsuporta sa watered-down bill.

Sabi nga ng proponent ng isang anti-dynasty bill na si Mikee Defensor — ang self-confessed na “suwail” na anak ni Mike Defensor — “government is a sinking ship.” 

Dagdag pa ni Mikee, don’t ignore the numbers. Hindi uubra ang palusot na may matino namang dynast politician. Sabi ng istatistika, mas malala ang kahirapan or poverty incidence sa mga lugar na ilang dekadang pinamunuan ng mga fat dynasty. Mabibilang sa sampung daliri ang mga Vico Sotto of this world, pero sangkatutak ang mga bugok, sakim, at incompetent — not to mention some are not even of sound mind.

It makes sense, mabaho ang kanal na hindi umaagos. 

Ang malinaw: isa itong token at tactical move ni Marcos upang makarating sa 2028 nang hindi nade-dethrone.

HIndi man maipasa ang hallucination bill, sana maging mitsa ito sa makabuluhang diskusyon — at sana’y magising ang taumbayan sa mga bulok at sakim na dinastiya sa kanilang pamayanan. – Rappler.com

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

The post BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. BlackRock is steering $185 billion worth of model portfolios deeper into US stocks and artificial intelligence. The decision came this week as the asset manager adjusted its entire model suite, increasing its equity allocation and dumping exposure to international developed markets. The firm now sits 2% overweight on stocks, after money moved between several of its biggest exchange-traded funds. This wasn’t a slow shuffle. Billions flowed across multiple ETFs on Tuesday as BlackRock executed the realignment. The iShares S&P 100 ETF (OEF) alone brought in $3.4 billion, the largest single-day haul in its history. The iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) collected $2.3 billion, while the iShares US Equity Factor Rotation Active ETF (DYNF) added nearly $2 billion. The rebalancing triggered swift inflows and outflows that realigned investor exposure on the back of performance data and macroeconomic outlooks. BlackRock raises equities on strong US earnings The model updates come as BlackRock backs the rally in American stocks, fueled by strong earnings and optimism around rate cuts. In an investment letter obtained by Bloomberg, the firm said US companies have delivered 11% earnings growth since the third quarter of 2024. Meanwhile, earnings across other developed markets barely touched 2%. That gap helped push the decision to drop international holdings in favor of American ones. Michael Gates, lead portfolio manager for BlackRock’s Target Allocation ETF model portfolio suite, said the US market is the only one showing consistency in sales growth, profit delivery, and revisions in analyst forecasts. “The US equity market continues to stand alone in terms of earnings delivery, sales growth and sustainable trends in analyst estimates and revisions,” Michael wrote. He added that non-US developed markets lagged far behind, especially when it came to sales. This week’s changes reflect that position. The move was made ahead of the Federal…
