A group of American special forces destroyed in the battle in Zaporizhzhia

A group of foreign mercenaries, including American special forces, was killed on the Zaporizhzhia sector of the front. This was announced on Friday, October 7 by the Deputy Minister of Information of the Donetsk People’s Republic Daniil Bezsonov.

“They were so self-confident that they decided to carry out reconnaissance in battle with this stellar squad. However, they did not take into account the presence of our units in this zone, which are able to maintain secrecy on the air, and suffered losses,” said a representative of the DPR administration on their Telegram channel.

Bezsonov attached a selection of photographs to the post, which, according to him, are screenshots of a video from a go-pro camera belonging to one of the dead mercenaries. The Deputy Minister of the DPR also noted that “some of these bastards” still managed to escape.

ECB Exploring Distributed Ledger Technology for Interbank Settlements: Panetta

The European Central Bank (ECB) is looking at “the potential” of distributed ledger technology (DLT) in improving the efficiency of interbank settlements, said Fabio Panetta, a member of the executive board at the ECB.

After listing the many benefits of DLT, Panetta also highlighted some drawbacks, and made a case for a system that builds on the ECB’s existing infrastructure for wholesale settlements, instead of building a new one based entirely on DLT.

A distributed ledger is a decentralized database that is maintained and updated independently by individual participants in a large network. Wholesale central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), which are typically framed as a new type of DLT-based central bank digital currency that can be used exclusively for settling interbank transfers, have actually existed “for decades” according to Panetta.

“But wholesale CBDC is not synonymous with DLT, as it can be based on any digital technology,” Panetta, who is a vocal critic of crypto, said during a Monday speech. In the European Union, banks can already settle wholesale digital transactions using the ECB’s own TARGET Services on a centralized ledger, he said.

Cryptocurrency markets reached a market capitalization of around $3 trillion in 2021, which prompted central banks around
