The sci-fi future of onchain assets and smart locks

This is a segment from The Breakdown newsletter. To read full editions, subscribe.

“In economics, things take longer to happen than you think they will, and then they happen faster than you thought they could.”

― Rudiger Dornbusch

The opening scene of Philip K. Dick’s 1969 sci-fi classic Ubik features an apartment door demanding payment from its owner. 

When Joe Chip, behind on his rent, attempts to open the door for a guest, it replies, “Five cents, please.”

Short of change, he offers to pay tomorrow, but his credit score is shot so the door ignores him. 

He tries to reason with it:  “What I pay you,” he informed it, “is in the nature of a…

UK Passes Bill Recognizing Crypto As Property

The United Kingdom has officially written crypto into its legal framework as a distinct form of property.

On Tuesday, the Property (Digital Assets etc.) Act 2025 received Royal Assent from King Charles III, completing its passage through Parliament and creating a third, legally recognized category of property specifically for digital assets. The act passed both houses without amendment.

The new classification places assets such as bitcoin, stablecoins and NFTs into a bucket separate from traditional “things in possession,” like physical objects, or “things in action,” like contractual rights. Policymakers say the reform was needed to modernize property law for the…

LATEST: Poland President Vetoes Anti-Bitcoin Law Supports Crypto In Europe

President Karol Nawrocki has vetoed Poland’s Cryptoasset Market Act, stopping a bill he says would have placed harsh restrictions on the country’s growing crypto sector. A statement on his official website warned that several provisions posed “a real threat to the freedom of Poles, their property, and the stability of the state.”

Nawrocki argued the act would give authorities the power to shut down crypto company websites “with a single click,” calling the domain-blocking rules unclear and vulnerable to abuse. He also criticized the legislation’s excessive length—over 100 pages compared to much shorter versions in neighboring countries—and warned that high regulatory fees would favor big corporations while choking innovation from startups.

The president said the heavy-handed approach risked driving crypto businesses to nations like the Czech Republic or Slovakia instead of keeping them in Poland. Nawrocki, elected in June as an independent backed by the Law and Justice party, emphasized that overregulation would push investment abroad rather than support local development.

Strategy ($MSTR) Leads Bitcoin Sector As BTC Hits $91k

Bitcoin-linked stocks surged on Tuesday as the broader crypto market staged a sharp recovery and Bitcoin reclaimed the $91,000 level.
