If confirmed, North Korea's bitcoin reserve will be only behind US' 198,109 BTC and the UK's 61,245 BTC, according to the Binance's estimates. It would be more than 10,635 BTC of Bhutan and El Salvador’s 6,117 BTC.

I don't know what they're saying, but the comments are cringe if you translate them lmao

People are the Sky is an excellent documentary that I've still never heard referenced when talking about DPRK docs so here you go, I'll leave this up for you comrades for a few days :) Follows a Korean-American making a return visit to her homeland. Not perfect, but very good 💙

F1 visa allows a student to attend school (Highschool/College/etc) full time. This is apparently the first time a North Korean got an F1 visa since 2015

Hello!

As I was inspired by the creator of Juchify, I decided to create a YouTube-like platform for videos related to North Korea.

Although I call it YouTube-like, it's actually based on PeerTube code. Nonetheless, the site is focused on videos from or about North Korea without excessive censorship. The site is still young, but it has gigabytes of concerts, music and films uploaded. I hope more creators and viewers will join it since YouTube decides to delete precious North Korean video and audio material at random intervals.

The site is available at https://chosonclip.net/ . If you have any commentary or questions about Chosonclip, please let me know.

I have two questions regarding the election of the deputies to the supreme people's assembly in the DPRK.

The Supreme People's Assembly is composed of deputies elected on the basis of universal, equal and direct suffrage by secret ballot.

And in the translation of the law document Deputy Elections for People's Assemblies at Each Level Law of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (2010) (article 5.) it says:

Deputy elections for People's Assemblies at each level shall be done by the method of secret ballot. Constituents shall be guaranteed the freedom of voting for or against. No one may require the publication of the fact of having voted for or against a c

Here is a previous lemmy thread about the sentencing of Virgil Griffith back in April: https://lemmy.ml/post/228220

An obvious misconception is the idea that North Korea is a "totalitarian" dictatorship; it's been perpetuated by western media.

Any more misconceptions?
