Israeli opposition leader says Netanyahu’s crypto vision threatens national security

This is a domestic political fight over crypto being fought on national-security grounds, which is a sharper framing than the usual regulatory debate. The substance is thin — Eisenkot attacks a stated intention, not a policy — so the market-relevant question is whether Netanyahu's sanctions-circumvention idea ever becomes an actual proposal, since that is what would carry sanctions and isolation risk for Israeli markets. Watch whether the issue stays a campaign talking point or gets picked up by regulators and foreign counterparts.
