Ripple’s co-founder Chris Larsen is set to meet with newly appointed SEC Chair Paul Atkins on May 2. With Atkins’ reputation as a pro-crypto figure—unlike his predecessor Gary Gensler—many are hopeful this meeting could fast-track ETF approval.
Franklin Templeton’s XRP ETF application is already in the pipeline, with a final SEC decision due by June 17, 2025. But industry

World, the rebranded Worldcoin project by Sam Altman’s Tools for Humanity, has officially launched across six U.S. cities: San Francisco, Los Angeles, Austin, Atlanta, Miami, and Nashville. At flagship locations, users can scan their iris using Orb devices to create a World ID—a digital proof of humanity meant for secure online identity.

In a groundbreaking move, Abu Dhabi’s MGX investment firm is injecting $2 billion into Binance using a Trump-linked stablecoin called USD1. Announced by Eric Trump at Token2049 Dubai, the deal makes headlines not just for its size, but for its symbolism—ushering in a new chapter where political branding intersects with Web3 finance.
USD1, a stablecoin launched by World Liberty Financial in March 2025, is pegged to the U.S. dollar and directly affiliated with Donald Trump’s camp. This marks MGX’s

BlackRock is stepping up its blockchain game with plans to tokenize shares of its $150 billion Treasury Trust Fund. In a new SEC filing, the asset giant outlines a vision to digitize ownership using distributed ledger technology (DLT), with BNY Mellon managing the blockchain-based ledger.

Institutional investors must initially commit at least $3 million, though follow-up inve

Bitcoin (BTC) is holding strong around $95,000, with eyes locked on the $100,000 milestone. The fuel? Massive institutional inflows and bold state-level support. On Monday, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw an inflow of $591.29 million—marking a strong continuation since April 17. Adding to the momentum, MicroStrategy snapped up 15,355 BTC worth $1.42 billion, bringing its total stash to over 553,000 BTC. Meanwhile, Arizona made headlines with its Bitcoin Reserve Bill, allowing up to 10% of its treasur

Bitcoin is riding a powerful wave this week, soaring toward the $100,000 mark as fears over U.S. dollar weakness take center stage. A fresh leak has revealed establishment concerns about crypto contagion, fueling a major bounce in Bitcoin and tech stocks. Deutsche Bank analysts now warn of a looming "major dollar downtrend" due to shifting U.S. trade policies and geopolitical uncertainty. As the Fed faces growing pressure to cut rates, Bitcoin’s role as a safe-haven asset is gaining momentum. Me

The TRUMP meme coin on Solana skyrocketed 66% in less than an hour after a jaw-dropping offer: top holders will be invited to dine with Donald Trump himself. This unexpected incentive pushed the coin from $9.30 to $14.72, with trading volume exceeding $295 million. Only the top 220 registered wallets qualify for the dinner, calculated through a time-weighted score based on holdings from April 23 to May 12. Surprisingly, some holders with just 1 TRUMP are already ranking due to low registration t

Bitcoin is surging past $88,000 as markets reel from Donald Trump’s escalating battle with the Federal Reserve. The former president slammed Fed Chair Jerome Powell on Truth Social, hinting at a possible firing, calling Powell “Mr. Too Late”—a move that analysts warn could trigger an “apocalyptic” scenario for the U.S. economy.
With global markets shaken, tech stocks down, and gold soaring to $3,400 per ounce, Bitcoin is catching serious safe-haven momentum. Trump’s push for “preemptive” rate cu

Anthony Pompliano has spoken out against Trump’s call to fire Fed Chair Jerome Powell, warning that such a move could damage institutional credibility and hurt crypto. While crypto markets often rally on rate cuts, Pompliano stressed that sacrificing the Fed’s independence for short-term gains is dangerous. Senator Warren echoed similar concerns, saying this could shake investor confidence and harm the U.S. economy.
Though some believe political pressure might lead to a weaker dollar — possibly

North Korea’s Lazarus Group is leveling up its social engineering playbook, now using fake Zoom calls and deepfakes to target crypto insiders. Manta Network’s co-founder, Kenny Li, shared his close call—faces he recognized appeared on a video call, but no one spoke. Then came the classic trap: “download a script to fix your audio.”
These attacks aren't just random phishing attempts. They’re strategic, using deepfakes, stolen IDs, and psychological tricks. Security experts are calling it out: thi

Solana just hit a major milestone—spot ETFs tracking SOL are now live on the Toronto Stock Exchange! Four asset managers—Purpose (SOLL), CI Global (SOLX), 3iQ (SOLQ), and Evolve (SOLA)—have rolled out their own Solana ETFs, complete with staking rewards. The green light came from Canada’s top regulator, the Ontario Securities Commission, earlier this week.
This move places Solana alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum as approved cryptocurrencies for spot ETFs in Canada. But here’s the catch: analysts l

Fed Chair Jerome Powell suggested that U.S. banking regulators might loosen crypto restrictions during his remarks at The Economic Club of Chicago. While emphasizing the need to maintain consumer protection, Powell acknowledged the growing legitimacy of crypto and hinted at more innovation-friendly policies ahead. At the same time, Trump fired back on Truth Social, saying Powell’s termination “cannot come fast enough,” criticizing him for being “too late and wrong.” As U.S. agencies slowly ease

The Trump family is going full crypto—with nearly $1 billion in paper gains riding on everything from NFTs to Bitcoin mining. What started as skepticism from Donald Trump has morphed into full-blown enthusiasm, with major moves like a proposed “Truth.Fi Bitcoin Plus ETF” and a stablecoin dubbed USD1. Their crypto empire, spearheaded by Trump’s sons and CFO Allen Weisselberg, now spans World Liberty Financial and partnerships with names like Crypto.com and Hut 8 Corp.

The global economy just got a shockwave. China hit back with a 125% tariff on U.S. goods, branding America’s latest hike as “economic bullying.” After Trump raised tariffs to 145%, Beijing didn’t hold back, filing two WTO complaints and warning the U.S. is “turning itself into a joke.”
Meanwhile, EU leaders plan a rare visit to Beijing, signaling a possible shift in trade alliances. President Xi emphasized that “there are no winners in a trade war,” and urged Europe to unite against unilateral m

The Argentine Congress has approved the formation of a commission to investigate the involvement of government officials in the launch and downfall of the controversial Libra token. This investigation, backed by 128 representatives, will focus on President Javier Milei and his inner circle, including his sister Karina Milei, over their alleged roles in the token's dramatic collapse. Libra was initially touted to support Argentina’s SMEs but saw its value plummet hours after release, leaving many

President Donald Trump just made crypto history. In his first crypto-related legislative action, Trump signed a bill repealing the IRS DeFi broker rule — a controversial regulation from the Biden era. The law had required decentralized finance platforms to report user tax data like traditional brokers, which clashed with DeFi’s core principle of anonymity.
With bipartisan support (70–28 in the Senate), the repeal signals growing government recognition that DeFi can’t be regulated like Wall Stree

The U.S. Department of Justice and SEC have cracked down on Nate, an app that claimed to use AI for e-commerce—but allegedly ran on human labor from the Philippines instead. Founder Albert Saniger, now facing fraud charges, raised over $40 million from investors by marketing Nate as an AI-powered universal shopping cart. In reality, “purchasing assistants” manually processed transactions. Authorities say this AI deception hurt both investors and the broader tech community. Nate shut down in earl
