Hemi is a modular Layer-2 blockchain network designed to merge the security of Bitcoin with the smart-contract capability of Ethereum. The project’s goal: create a supernetwork that treats Bitcoin and Ethereum not as separate silos, but as interoperable components. Founded by industry veterans including Jeff Garzik (an early Bitcoin developer) and backed by major investors. 2. Core Technical Architecture a) Execution environment: hVM (Hemi Virtual Machine) Hemi uses its own virtual machine, often called hVM, which builds on an Ethereum-compatible Virtual Machine (EVM) but adds native integration with Bitcoin data. Through hVM, smart contracts on Hemi can directly access Bitcoin transactions, Unspent-Transaction Outputs (UTXOs), and Bitcoin node data rather than relying purely on wrapped tokens or external oracles. This design allows developers familiar with Ethereum tooling to build for Hemi and interact with Bitcoin simultaneously. b) Consensus & security: Proof-of-Proof (PoP) anchored to Bitcoin.

She's 64..again, passtjs torch.. "One would like to say this is a historic moment in Japan,” Jeff Kingston, a professor of Asian studies and history at Temple University’s Japan campus, told NBC News. “But it’s really hard to make that case, given her rather poor track record on empowering women.” Takaichi opposes same-sex marriage and favors keeping succession to men only in Japan’s shrinking imperial family. She also opposes changing the rules to make it easier for married women to keep their maiden names in Japan, where married couples are required to have the same surname. https://www.nbcnews.com/world/asia/sanae-takaichi-becomes-japans-first-female-prime-minister-rcna238601
