Bitcoin Standoff: Bhutan’s government-linked wallets are again under scrutiny after on-chain trackers flagged a possible near-$1 billion Bitcoin sell-off, with DHI’s CEO saying, “I don’t recall the last time we sold any BTC,” while the fund offered no further comment—leaving a sharp gap between blockchain flows and official memory. Parliament Watch: MPs debated a proposed electricity tariff revision, with low-voltage users set to jump from Nu 2.66 to Nu 5.63 per unit, and lawmakers pressed for timing and support measures as costs rise. Road Safety Fix: Work is underway on the Nganglam–Panbang highway under Project DANTAK, with maintenance during construction and completion targeted by March 2028. Standards, Not Barriers: The government says new certification rules for 15 imported product categories are meant to protect quality and safety, not restrict trade. Thimphu Water: Thromde has started realigning a key transmission line to reduce landslide risk and improve long-term water security.
