The first thing to note is the influence of the Russian-centered digital platform ‘Telegram’ and the resulting social backlash. Recently, in Russia, as the government's movement to regulate Telegram grows, public anger is reaching its peak. This is because Telegram has gone beyond a simple messenger and has become a key channel for sharing information and expressing political opinions. In particular, as it was revealed that a Telegram account was involved in the arson incident targeting the British Prime Minister, governments around the world are paying more attention to the distribution of information through the platform. This phenomenon clearly shows where the values ​​of freedom of expression and national security directly clash. Concerns that digital space could become a hotbed of crime and the power struggle between the powers that be to block citizens' only communication channel are expected to intensify in the future.

Changes in digital platforms are also having a direct impact on financial markets. In the process of changing the name of ‘TON’, a Telegram-based cryptocurrency, to ‘GRAM’, large exchanges such as Binance are leading changes in the ecosystem through technical support. This is a symbolic move to restore the name of a project promoted by Telegram founders in the past, and at the same time, it is an example of how a decentralized network can survive between external regulations and internal decision-making. However, not all trading platforms welcome this change, and we are seeing divisions within the ecosystem, with the likes of Hyperliquid discussing delisting. Ultimately, the change in technical name can be interpreted as part of the geopolitical pressure faced by the large platform called Telegram and its resulting survival strategy.

Meanwhile, Armenia is currently at a crossroads for national survival due to strong economic pressure from Russia. Russia has pulled out the card of cutting off energy supplies to block Armenia's attempts to strengthen ties with the European Union (EU). This is a fatal threat to Armenia, which relies more than 80% on Russia for the resources that form the basis of its economy, such as natural gas, oil, and diamonds. Russia goes beyond a simple economic warning and justifies it with the argument that Armenia's pro-Western stance harms the security of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). This is a re-run of the economic pressure tactics we saw in Ukraine and Georgia in the past, and a clear example of how economic dependence can undermine political sovereignty.

Aside from these geopolitical tensions, the shooting incident that occurred in Midland, Texas, USA once again reminds us of how weak the safety net within society is. Gun violence, which destroys peaceful daily life, has now gone beyond a problem in a specific region and has become a symbol of the fundamental anxiety of modern society. Additionally, the drone attack that occurred in Sevastopol, Crimea, proves that the Russia-Ukraine war is still ongoing and that the damage is extending to civilian facilities and cultural heritage. Now that killings in the physical space, control in the digital space, and economic threats are happening simultaneously, the whole world is fighting different types of war.
