Neon is a serverless, open-source database that works like PostgreSQL but is designed for the cloud, making it easy to set up and manage without worrying about servers or manual scaling. It splits storage and computing, so you can quickly create, copy, or branch databases for testing or development, and it automatically adjusts resources to save costs and handle traffic spikes. This means you can start using Postgres in seconds, connect with your favorite tools, and focus on building your app instead of managing infrastructure, all while enjoying fast performance and flexible workflows[3][5][2].

🚀 Bhutan's Bitcoin Mining Activities May Have Slowed Amid Economic Pressures
Bhutan may have halted or reduced its Bitcoin mining operations after selling 70% of its Bitcoin holdings. According to Foresight News, this move contrasts with other major institutions and sovereign nations that are increasing their cryptocurrency and gold reserves. Bhutan's hydropower is reportedly being redirected to supply electricity to neighboring India rather than being used for Bitcoin mining. Economic pressures, along with declining Bitcoin prices, increased network difficulty, and halving pressures, are squeezing mining profitability. As of now, Druk Holding and Investments, the sovereign wealth fund managing Bhutan's Bitcoin assets, has not publicly commented on any asset transfers or the status of its mining operations.
