The Senate approved legislation sponsored by State Sen. Lisa Baker, R-20, Lehman Twp.,  to protect the privacy of Pennsylvania Lottery winners who receive prizes of $100,000 or more.
Senate Bill 73 would keep the names, addresses and other personal identifying information of these winners confidential, unless they choose to make it public. The measure allows the Pennsylvania Lottery to continue operating transparently by releasing the winner’s county and municipality of residence and the prize amount.
“The Pennsylvania Lottery has a proud, decades-long record of transparency and integrity,” Baker said. “At the same time, we must recognize the modern realities that come with instant communication and online access to personal information. This legislation strikes the right balance between public accountability and personal safety.”
Baker noted that half of all states already provide either full or partial anonymity for major lottery winners. Her proposal is designed to shield individuals and their families from harassment, scams and unwanted attention after winning large sums of money.
“My interest in this legislation stems from knowing someone personally who was targeted after winning a $100,000 scratch-off prize,” Baker said. “Scammers went so far as to contact her family members pretending to be government officials demanding tax payments. No one should have to endure that kind of intrusion simply for being lucky.”
The bill now moves to the House of Representatives for consideration.

“Can be far more costly.”

Crypto enthusiasts are being reminded that not everything that glitters in the digital world is gold … or bitcoin.
Across social media, so-called “crypto faucets” are luring users with promises of free coins for performing simple online tasks. But experts say that while the offer sounds risk-free, the hidden costs can outweigh the rewards.
According to the New York Post, crypto faucets, first launched in 2010 by bitcoin pioneer Gavin Andresen, were once designed to help newcomers learn how digital wallets and blockchain transactions work. Participants could earn small fractions of cryptocurrency by completing tasks like solving captchas or watching ads.
Today, those payouts have dwindled to nearly nothing, and the faucets themselves have become breeding grounds for scams.
“They’re like a ‘digital water dispenser’ that gives out tiny fractions of a cent in crypto,” said Prashant Tiwari, founder of Vhindi.com, per the New York Post. “The bombastic claims of easy money often hide the real cost — people spend hours on them only to earn less than a dollar.”
Cybersecurity experts also note that many sites are riddled with spam and phishing attempts. 
FROM OUR PARTNER
Want to go solar but not sure who to trust? EnergySage has your back with free and transparent quotes from fully vetted providers that can help you save as much as $10k on installation.
To get started, just answer a few questions about your home — no phone number required. Within a day or two, EnergySage will email you the best local options for your needs, and their expert advisers can help you compare quotes and pick a winner.
“Safety is a big concern,” Tiwari added. “The shady ads, phishing scams, and malware they often expose you to can be far more costly than any earnings.”
For new users, these “free” crypto offers can create a false sense of financial opportunity that comes with both security and environmental risks.
Bitcoin and similar proof-of-work currencies consume vast amounts of electricity to verify transactions. While newer proof-of-stake networks like Ethereum have cut that consumption by 99.95%, the overall energy footprint of the crypto industry remains significant.
A recent University of Cambridge study found that 52.4% of bitcoin mining was powered by renewable energy, but that still leaves a significant reliance on fossil fuels.

Still, many analysts see long-term potential. In an interview with CNBC, Jeremy Siegel, a Wharton School professor and chief economist at WisdomTree, noted that bitcoin could one day rival the U.S. dollar as the world’s reserve currency. However, its success will depend on whether it can evolve sustainably.
Recognizing the environmental strain of blockchain technology, some innovators are building more efficient alternatives.
One example is Algorand, a network founded by MIT’s Silvio Micali that runs on a pure proof-of-stake system. Unlike bitcoin’s energy-hungry mining process, Algorand’s system drastically cuts energy use while maintaining security.
If you’re interested in exploring the space responsibly, it’s recommended to start with educational tools and reputable platforms rather than chasing “free” crypto online. 
Stick to wallets you control, avoid sharing personal details, and remember: In crypto, as in life, if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
