The addresses are public. As of Nov 2 they hold about 7,823 BTC, and you can watch roughly one coin a day arrive (the IMF says recent additions come from private donations, not public money).&#xA;&#xA;Back home, nobody outside a few offices knows what the central bank really holds. &#34;Trust us&#34; is the whole policy.&#xA;&#xA;That contrast is the lesson I most want Farsi speakers to feel: don&#39;t trust, verify. Not as a slogan, but as a habit you can do on a phone in two minutes.&#xA;&#xA;Question for Nostr: what&#39;s the simplest &#34;verify it yourself&#34; exercise you&#39;ve used to teach a total beginner? A block explorer lookup, checking a wallet signature, something offline? I&#39;m collecting ideas for a Farsi verification mini-course.</html></oembed>
