POV: Senior Cat Steals the Heart of the Facilities Supervisor at a Free-Roaming Cat Shelter in Colorado, Gets Adopted
Every cat person knows that the cat chooses you and it’s not the other way around. Even if you think it was you who got up that morning, decided you were ready to adopt a cat, went to the cat shelter, picked out a cat, and adopted them. Sorry to tell ya, that cat was pulling your little puppet strings. Cats are in cahoots with the universe, so even from the thought of wanted to adopt a cat, that cat was the one who sent it into your head. That’s a cat fact. Senior cats are much less likely to get adopted over kittens and healthy adult cats. It’s a shame, but that’s just how it is. But that doesn’t mean the power of purrsuasion is any less powerful! Take this old Kitty named Dun Dun Dun. This baby lived in a free-roaming cat shelter in Colorado. However, not for long, because when the facilities supervisor came in for work one day, that cat decided he was their person. And guess what? You darn tootin’ that facilities supervisor adopted Dun Dun Dun that same day!.
Bitcoin.com Partners with Concordium to Bring Age-Verification Service to 75M Wallets
The post Bitcoin.com Partners with Concordium to Bring Age-Verification Service to 75M Wallets appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Notes Concordium’s identity verification tech joins Bitcoin.com Wallet, giving users privacy-preserving age and location checks. Zero-knowledge proofs enable merchants to confirm compliance requirements without accessing unnecessary personal information. The integration addresses growing demand for blockchain verification as crypto adoption reaches 27% of US internet users. Cryptocurrency firm Bitcoin.com will integrate public blockchain platform Concordium’s ‘1-Click Verify & Pay’ service to its Wallet through a partnership announced on Nov. 6. Concordium’s “identity-first blockchain” and native CCD token will become accessible to Bitcoin.com as part of the deal.

This gives merchants a means to fulfill verification requirements while keeping user identities private. The integration also enables age-verified payments with Protocol-Level Tokens (PLTs), ensuring compliance and privacy at the protocol level. 💡 A milestone for Smart Money@BitcoinCom has partnered with Concordium to bring age-verified payments to 75+ million worldwide. pic.twitter.com/SZGBgDTq3q — Concordium (@ConcordiumNet) November 6, 2025 The Intersection of Privacy and Verification Many vendor offerings, including gaming, entertainment, and premium online events are locked behind a paywall requiring identity verification. Traditional finance methods for verifying whether a user meets compliance requirements for access to a service often require extraneous personal data for the purposes of verifying the legality of the payment itself, such as a user’s full address and phone number or a picture of their photo identification. Services such as Concordium’s ‘1-Click Verify & Pay’ allow users to expose the necessary information via secure blockchain transaction, without the need for extra data to verify the payment itself.
