A follow up to the #Caribbean 7.6m #earthquake last night, 2/8, 1700 miles away. Taking only 7 minutes to arrive in New England, the wave is detected first by the Westport Observatory at the bottom, and then Weston MA and finally Waterville ME. Fortunately, the tsunami advisory was quickly cancelled.
Our #USGS seismic instruments are recording the 7.6M #earthquake tonight off the coast of George Town, Cayman Islands. There is a chance of a #tsunami for Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands that as of early this evening, has not been ruled out.
Update: "There is no tsunami danger for the U.S. east coast, the Gulf of Mexico states, or the eastern coast of Canada. * Earthquakes of this size are known to generate tsunamis dangerous to shorelines near the source. "
#Caribbean #Earthquake: #TsunamiWarning issued for #Haiti, #Cuba and #PuertoRico
An 8.0 magnitude earthquake shook the Caribbean, leaving nations on edge as they brace for potential aftershocks.

#ScottBessent, likely the next #Treasury Secy, [attended]…
#KohHarada, COO of #Aleo, a privacy-focused #blockchain, said Bessent was “pretty coy about things, but the fact that he was even there was very interesting.”
Aleo, which has raised >$200M from investors including #SoftBank & #AndreessenHorowitz, chose to establish in the #US while many rivals launched from #offshore jurisdictions like the #CaymanIslands as a shield from #regulations.
"Trump would sell 43 condos in Manhattan’s flashiest building to shell companies based in jurisdictions such as #Panama, the #CaymanIslands & the British Virgin Islands, which conceal corporate records. He sold another 6 condos, for cash...
A Financial Times investigation in that same year also found that #Russian, Kazakh & other post-Soviet #oligarchs had probably been laundering #money through #Trump -licensed properties."

In the Caribbean, Hammerhead #Sharks Return to School https://hakaimagazine.com/news/in-the-caribbean-hammerhead-sharks-return-to-school/ paper: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmars.2024.1347285/full
"Seeing one of these critically endangered #animals is a thrill, but seeing nearly a dozen plying the water side by side is worth writing home about. This was especially true for Mauvis Gore and her colleagues when, in 2022, they saw a group of scalloped hammerheads off the #CaymanIslands—the first time since the 1970s that #hammerheads have been seen schooling in the #Caribbean Sea."
The docs came from a trove of ~100k leaked files from #GenesisTrust, a #CaymanIslands based financial services provider, which were obtained by the International Consortium of #Investigative #Journalists & reviewed by WaPo.
Among the docs were internal forms prepared by Genesis that proposed the corporate structure would be “set up with the intention of benefiting the State of #Qatar.”
A rep for #Newsmax disputed that the network “slanted coverage to be favorable to #Qatar”….
Newsmax & Heritage Advisors confirmed the investment after being presented w/documents detailing the transaction, which show that Sultan subsequently transferred his stake to a #CaymanIslands based corporate structure. The $50M investment represents a significant minority stake in Newsmax, a privately held #media company estimated to be worth between $100M & $200M, acc/to S&P Global Market Intelligence.

Good, there are far too many places where the rich and powerful, both individuals and corporations, stash their money away and don’t pay their share of #tax.
