The principal characteristic of the Indian Constitution is the rule of law it mandates. This foundational principle envisions that the law, established under the constitutional framework, holds primacy over all other considerations—be they individual, ideological, or political. It is the bedrock that ensures we are a nation governed by laws, not by men.
This ideal, however, has faced a starkly modern challenge: the rise of ‘bulldozer justice’. In states like Uttar Pradesh, governments have employed strong-arm methods, using machinery to raze homes and properties of individuals deemed suspects, bypassing the judicial process entirely. This practice conflates accusation with guilt and allows the executive to act as judge, jury, and executioner.
It creates a dangerous precedent where the government of the day believes it can operate outside the sanctity of established legal procedure. What began as a political theatre of “instant justice” has now become an instrument of fear and selective punishment, often targeting minorities or dissenters.
It is against this backdrop that Chief Justice of India BR Gavai’s recent remarks in Mauritius carry profound significance. Defending his own verdict, he emphatically stated that the Indian legal system is governed by the “rule of law, not by the rule of the bulldozer.”
The Supreme Court’s ruling, which held that such demolitions violate the rule of law and infringe upon the fundamental right to shelter, was a necessary and powerful corrective. It reaffirmed that the executive’s authority is not absolute but is circumscribed by constitutional morality and judicial oversight.
This judicial stance is deeply rooted in our constitutional history, notably the Kesavananda Bharati case, which established that the Constitution’s basic structure is immutable. While not exhaustively defined, this structure is undeniably animated by the principles enshrined in the Preamble—Justice, Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity.
‘Bulldozer justice’ assaults each of these ideals, substituting the rule of reason with the rule of muscle.
Yet, a sobering reality remains. The courts often move at a deliberate pace, granting the executive considerable leeway to act in the interim. This temporal gap between executive action and judicial redress can render the latter a pyrrhic victory for those whose homes and rights are instantly demolished. The damage is done long before the court’s pen can restore what the bulldozer’s blade destroyed.
Therefore, the judiciary’s role is not just to settle matters but to set boundaries—clearly, promptly, and fearlessly. As Justice Gavai articulated, the rule of law is not a rigid doctrine but a continuous conversation—a substantive principle that restrains arbitrary power and embeds democratic accountability.
In defending the Constitution against the bulldozer, the Supreme Court is defending the very idea of India as a democratic republic where no one is above the law.

It looks like it’s the Insurance Commission’s (IC) turn to weed out or sanction bad actors within its sphere of influence.
This development comes in the wake of an ever-widening investigation into the extent of corruption in flood control projects, which has revealed that even nonlife insurance companies are involved.
As Senate hearings have shown, only a handful of closely related entities are at the center of these irregularities, signaling a deeper issue that the IC must now address.

**Bitcoin’s Historical Price Trajectory Shows Shrinking Post-Halving Gains**
Bitcoin (BTC) has exhibited a clear historical price pattern: after each halving, the asset climbs to new highs. However, recent data reveal that the magnitude of these post-halving gains has steadily diminished over time, particularly since the second halving.
**Returns Are Shrinking Fast**
Bitcoin halvings reduce the rate at which new coins enter circulation by slashing block rewards. Since 2012, block rewards have dropped by 87.5%—from 25 BTC to the current 3.125 BTC—fueling scarcity-driven narratives that traditionally support Bitcoin’s upward price momentum.
Over this period, Bitcoin’s value has surged more than 9,110-fold, reaching a high of $109,000 on September 1, 2025. Just a month later, the cryptocurrency climbed above $120,000.
Despite these impressive numbers, CoinGecko reports that post-halving returns have significantly waned. The second halving cycle in 2017 delivered peak gains of 29x, the 2021 cycle saw returns drop to 6.7x, and the latest 2025 cycle has produced a comparatively modest 93.1% increase.
Interestingly, this cycle’s rhythm shifted when Bitcoin hit a record $73,400 in March 2024—months before the fourth halving—challenging historical expectations about the timing of peak prices.
**Market Activity Explodes**
Market activity has grown exponentially alongside Bitcoin’s price, with daily trading volumes soaring from roughly $20 million in 2013 to nearly $30 billion in 2025. This heightened activity has not deterred publicly listed companies from adopting Bitcoin as a treasury asset.
As of October 3, nearly 1,040,061 BTC were held by almost 200 publicly listed firms, accounting for almost 5% of the total BTC supply. Leading this corporate adoption is Strategy, which holds 640,031 BTC—representing 63.2% of all corporate-held Bitcoin—and recently added another 4,048 BTC on September 2.
Several new companies have also made significant moves into Bitcoin. Twenty One, backed by Tether, Bitfinex, Cantor Fitzgerald, and SoftBank, has purchased 43,514 BTC since May, becoming the third-largest corporate holder.
Meanwhile, US-based healthcare firm KindlyMD expanded its holdings through a merger with Nakamoto BTC Holdings, adding 5,765 BTC and announcing plans to raise $5 billion to further grow its treasury.
Internationally, organizations like MetaPlanet in Japan and Treasury BV in Europe are building sizable Bitcoin treasuries. Treasury BV recently raised $147 million to acquire more than 1,000 BTC.
**Bitcoin’s Backbone Strengthens**
As institutional holdings climb, the Bitcoin network itself is growing stronger. The network’s mining hash rate has been on a steady upward trajectory, driven by increasing participation from both individual miners and institutional players.
Over the past year alone, the hash rate surged 88%, rising from 670 million TH/s to 1.266 ZH/s.
The US mining ecosystem has expanded significantly under the Trump administration, aided in part by the relocation of Chinese mining hardware manufacturers—such as Bitmain, Canaan, and MicroBT—to the US. These moves were driven by tariffs and regulatory pressures in China.
Domestic firms including HIVE, Hut 8, Marathon, and CleanSpark have increasingly prioritized alternative energy sources for their new mining facilities, bolstering the network’s sustainability.
Adding momentum to this trend, Eric Trump recently co-founded American Bitcoin Corp, which debuted on the Nasdaq, further signaling growing institutional interest in Bitcoin mining and infrastructure.
—
**In summary**, while Bitcoin continues to break price records and attract institutional adoption, the post-halving price gains have compressed over time. This evolving landscape reflects a maturing asset class supported by expanding network infrastructure and increasing corporate treasury participation.

The Philadelphia Eagles lost. That’s not something they’re used to doing of late, and frankly, their loss was a little overdue. The Denver Broncos were the team that was finally able to take advantage of the Birds’ mistakes. As always, win, lose, or tie, we hand out 10 awards.
### 1) The ‘Different Books’ Award: Jalen Hurts and A.J. Brown
Late in the third quarter, still holding onto a 14-point lead, the Eagles called a shot play—a “dagger,” as Jalen Hurts called it during his postgame press conference. The play was wide open. Brown looked up for the ball but, when he didn’t see it initially, stopped running momentarily before realizing Hurts had indeed let it rip. The ball sailed harmlessly over Brown’s head for an incompletion on what should have been a game-sealing touchdown.
Execution mistakes happen, but what was more alarming was Brown’s and Hurts’ commentary about the play after the game. Asked if he talked to Hurts after the play, Brown said, “No.” Hurts was asked what corrections or adjustments he’d make with a receiver on the sideline following that kind of play, and he more or less didn’t directly answer. “In that situation, that play was a shot,” Hurts said. “So, you either hit it or you don’t, and we didn’t hit that one. We’ll watch the tape when we get the opportunity and learn from it. But in that moment in the game, it’s about finding a way to put the dagger in them, and that could have been the dagger.”
It’s clear Hurts and Brown do not have the personal relationship they once did. If they can’t discuss what’s happening on the field in-game—and for the record, from the press box, it was apparent they weren’t communicating on the sideline—that’s a big problem. It’s not just that Hurts and Brown aren’t on the same page—they’re in entirely different books right now.
### 2) The ‘Nah’ Award: The Eagles’ Rushing Attack
Hurts attempted 38 passes in this game, while Saquon Barkley only had six carries. He did break off a big 17-yard run on one attempt, but otherwise, Barkley carried just five times for 13 yards. Perhaps that’s normal in a game the Eagles were trailing, but they led for almost the entire matchup.
I remember when the Eagles built big leads and the entire stadium knew they were going to run the ball—and still, they were able to do it effectively. That’s not been their reality this season. They can’t run it well, and now, they’re hesitant to even try.
### 3) The ‘Out of Gas’ Award: The Eagles’ Defense
For most of the day, the Eagles’ defense was excellent. The Broncos’ first eight drives went like this: Punt, 55-yard field goal, Punt, Punt, Punt, Punt, Punt, Punt.
Against the Buccaneers in Week 4, the offense repeatedly put the defense in tough situations with quick three-and-outs—but the defense bailed them out time and again. The same pattern continued against Denver, until finally, the defensive dam broke. The Broncos’ last three possessions covered:
– 10 plays, 64 yards, touchdown
– 6 plays, 72 yards, touchdown + 2-point conversion
– 11 plays, 50 yards, field goal
The Eagles’ defense was fresh out of bailouts.
### 4) The ‘Didn’t Help’ Award: The Officials
During Denver’s final drive, Bo Nix was wrapped up by Jalyx Hunt and threw the ball away into the ground. Officials huddled and decided to flag Nix for intentional grounding, placing the ball at the Broncos’ 29-yard line, setting up a 3rd-and-24.
Then suddenly, the referee announced that Broncos tight end Adam Trautman was in the area and overturned the penalty, ruling it an incomplete pass instead. The ball was re-spotted at Denver’s 47 for a 3rd-and-6, which Denver converted.
Intentional grounding calls are reviewable only for:
– Whether the quarterback was in the pocket
– Whether the ball traveled past the line of scrimmage
What’s *not* reviewable is whether a receiver is in the area of the pass.
Pool reporter Zach Berman interviewed the officials after the game. Here’s their explanation:
> “So what happened there, we have an O2O—that’s our official-to-official communication system. My O2O was not working. Grounding is a teamwork foul. I had intentional grounding. The line judge had that there was a receiver in the area (#28), but I didn’t hear the info over O2O, so I threw the flag. The line judge came in and let me know that 28 indeed was there, so we picked up the flag.”
Honestly, that explanation sounds like nonsense. We’ll have much more on this soon.
### 5) The ‘Chance To Win, Part I’ Award: The Eagles’ Poor Offensive Operation
Down 18-17, the Eagles had a chance to score a touchdown (plus a two-point conversion attempt) or kick a lead-changing field goal. Facing 4th-and-4 from their own 49-yard line, they made a bold call to go for it. Hurts connected with DeVonta Smith down the left sideline for a 30-yard gain to the Denver 21.
But… Oh no! They were called for an illegal shift—a procedural penalty. That 1st-and-10 from the Broncos’ 21 became 4th-and-9 from the Eagles’ own 44, leading to a punt.
The Eagles usually pride themselves on limiting these kinds of mistakes and are usually very sound in this department. Not today.
### 6) The ‘Chance to Win, Part II’ Award: The Officials, Again
The Eagles got the ball with 1:06 left at their own 26-yard line. They drove down to the Denver 29 when Hurts threw to Dallas Goedert. Denver safety JL Skinner was clearly guilty of pass interference on the play—yet no flag was thrown.
This was an egregious no-call. The Eagles should have had the ball inside the five-yard line with one last chance to win. Instead, they had to settle for an ill-fated Hail Mary attempt.
### 7) The ‘Baby Steps’ Award: The Passing Game
Despite the loss, the passing game showed some signs of progress. Smith had eight catches for 114 yards, the offensive line often gave Hurts plenty of time to throw, and there were several big plays open downfield—some connections made, some squandered.
Overall, it seemed like a step in the right direction in certain areas.
### 8) The ‘Rest Up’ Award: Landon Dickerson
Dickerson injured his ankle in the first half and was ruled out early in the second half. It looks like he could miss some time. He hasn’t seemed fully healthy all year so far, so injuries aren’t good (#analysis).
However, in this case, maybe the ankle injury offers a chance for some of Dickerson’s lingering ailments to heal while he’s sidelined. Given the circumstances, if Dickerson were to return after the upcoming bye week—as the Eagles enter the easier stretch of their schedule—that might not be the worst thing. We’ll find out soon enough how severe his injury truly is.
### 9) The ‘Bad Weekend’ Award: Philly Fans
It’s been a tough two-day stretch for Philadelphia sports fans. The Phillies blew a 3-0 lead to the Dodgers in Game 1 of the NLDS, and the Eagles blew a 14-point fourth-quarter lead for their first loss of the NFL season.
### 10) The ‘Get Right’ Award: The Eagles, Maybe, Over the Next Month
Big picture: the Eagles are done with their hardest stretch of the season and stand at 4-1. If you asked an Eagles fan before the season started if they would take that record, most would say yes.
Now, the team faces the easiest part of their schedule:
– Week 6: At Giants
– Week 7: At Vikings
– Week 8: Giants
– Week 9: BYE
It remains to be seen whether they can put aside personal differences and start playing as a cohesive team again. Here’s hoping they do.
