at worst, it's disingenuous,\" Cipolaro said.</p>\n\n<p>The reason, according to Cipolaro, is two-fold, as mNAV \"doesn't give credit\" to crypto treasury companies that have operations and assets outside of crypto, such as Strategy's software sales.</p>\n\n<p>\"NAV [net asset value] is what matters in the game of increasing digital assets/share, not enterprise value or heaven forbid market cap,\" Cipolaro wrote.</p>\n\n<p>He said if a crypto treasury company can create yield, another key metric for investors, it can issue equity at a premium to its net asset value.</p>\n\n<h3>Debt unaccounted for by using mNAV</h3>\n\n<p>Cipolaro argued another reason to stop using mNAV is that the metric uses \"assumed shares outstanding,\" which likely includes convertible debt such as loan deals that are yet to be converted.</p>\n\n<p>\"When you peel back the convertible debt part, things unravel,\" he wrote. \"Accounting for convertible debt automatically as equity is not correct from an accounting or economic perspective.\"</p>\n\n<p>Convertible debt holders \"would demand cash, not shares, in exchange for their debt,\" Cipolaro said.</p>\n\n<p>\"This is a much more onerous liability for a DAT [digital asset treasury] than simply issuing shares,\" he added, as convertible debt is \"essentially volatility harvesting\" and crypto treasury companies are \"incentivized to maximize [their] equity volatility.\"</p>\n\n<h3>Hard to predict if Strive, Semler merger is good deal</h3>\n\n<p>Cipolaro's note came after Strive announced it acquired Semler Scientific on Monday, the first time a crypto treasury company had acquired another.</p>\n\n<p>The deal sees Semler shareholders get 21.05 shares of Strive for every one share of Semler, while Strive shareholders \"get a step up in the NAV/share — 'yield,' essentially,\" he explained.</p>\n\n<p>Cipolaro said the deal \"works out for both, albeit after some work,\" as Semler shareholders \"are getting their stock valued above\" the net asset value per share of both the existing stock and the new company formed in the merger.</p>\n\n<p>Strive's net asset value per share was $1.14 as of Friday, while the merged company is likely to have a NAV per share of $1.32.</p>\n\n<p>\"As for where this stock ultimately trades, that's harder to predict,\" said Cipolaro. \"It will ultimately depend on the premium or discount to NAV that investors put on the stock.\"</p>","thumbnail":"/api/assets/stock_images/decentralized_autono_533331e9.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-29T09:47:42.423Z","tags":["NYDIG","mNAV Metric","Greg Cipolaro","Crypto Treasury"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://example.com/nydig-mnav-metric-criticism","author":"DAT News Team","originalImageUrl":"/api/assets/stock_images/nydig_crypto_metrics_bb2e2677.jpg","scrapedAt":"2025-09-29T09:47:42.423Z","isScraped":0},{"id":"cfd27dbc-fcf9-48b0-8de8-a54e20f2b798","outletId":"dat","title":"From SPACs to Cash-Flow Buys: How DATs Are Plotting the Next Growth Phase","summary":"Strive's Semler buy, the first DAT-to-DAT deal, cements \"Bitcoin per share\" as the key metric while setting the stage for consolidation","body":"<p>The world of Digital Asset Treasury (DATs) has entered a new era, after Strive (ASST) announced an all-stock deal to acquire Semler Scientific (SMLR) this week.</p>\n\n<p>The deal marked the first merger of two publicly traded bitcoin treasuries, and according to a Wall Street banker familiar with the situation, this is just the start of a massive consolidation wave among the DATs.</p>\n\n<p>The banker, who opted to remain anonymous, outlined three scenarios for how DATS may evolve.</p>\n\n<h3>Mergers to add more BTC</h3>\n\n<p>The first of the three paths is the DAT-to-DAT mergers.</p>\n\n<p>Strive's acquisition of Semler is the first clear example of unifying BTC holdings, boosting bitcoin per share, and establishing governance under one roof, the banker said.</p>\n\n<p>When it closes, the deal will create a new company that will hold nearly 11,000 BTC after Strive's simultaneous $675 million purchase of 5,885 coins.</p>\n\n<p>It's worth noting that Semler's shares had been trading below the value of its bitcoin, effectively assigning negative value to its medical device business. For Strive, the acquisition consolidates balance sheets, adds BTC scale, and pushes forward a key company metric: Bitcoin per share.</p>\n\n<p>\"Strive's merger announcement is accretive in bitcoin per share, meeting our short-term goal,\" CEO Matt Cole wrote on X.</p>\n\n<p>\"We believe the combined power of the entities will give the combined company more ability to access the capital markets in a way that will drive increased bitcoin per share and accretion in a way neither could do on their own.\"</p>\n\n<p>With the bitcoin treasury market being saturated with many publicly traded companies, this strategy is likely to be one of the most efficient ways to grow for the DATs.</p>\n\n<h3>The cash-flow angle</h3>\n\n<p>The banker said the second path of evolution is acquiring cash-flowing businesses to offset dilution and fund ongoing BTC purchases.</p>\n\n<p>Metaplanet, Japan's largest bitcoin holder, has already said it will use its treasury to buy cash-generating businesses as part of its \"phase two\" strategy.</p>\n\n<p>Metaplanet is also exploring the use of perpetual preferred stock, a financing strategy that Strategy (MSTR) has already employed, allowing it to buy bitcoin without diluting shareholders through at-the-market (ATM) common stock offerings.</p>\n\n<h3>No more SPACs</h3>\n\n<p>Third, is merging with legitimate businesses instead of using special-purpose acquisition companies (SPACs), according to the banker.</p>\n\n<p>SPACs are shell firms designed to take companies public quickly, but the \"de-SPAC\" process can be messy, requiring shareholder votes, regulatory filings, and often suffering from investor redemptions. Making things more complex, to bridge funding gaps, many SPACs rely on PIPEs (private investments in public equity), which bring dilution, discounts and uncertainty.</p>\n\n<p>For DATs, merging directly with a company that already has operations and governance avoids these pitfalls.</p>\n\n<h3>The evolution of DATs</h3>\n\n<p>The bottom line is that DATs are at a point where they need to evolve and get creative with their growth strategies.</p>\n\n<p>In fact, other companies are already catching on to this trend. Recently, FRNT Financial (TSXV: FRNT), a digital asset investment bank, said it has entered into a consulting agreement with an undisclosed DAT with $100 million worth of digital assets in its balance sheet.</p>\n\n<p>According to the deal terms, FRNT will help evaluate and structure lending opportunities for the company's next growth phase.</p>\n\n<p>The deals, such as the Strive-Semler merger, show digital asset treasury companies will need to scale through consolidation, buy profitable businesses, or align with established operators that bring legitimacy, ushering in the next phase of DATs' evolution.</p>","thumbnail":"/api/assets/stock_images/decentralized_autono_2b7d1fab.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-29T09:47:14.935Z","tags":["DAT","Strive","Semler","Bitcoin Mergers","SPACs"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://example.com/dat-growth-phase-spacs","author":"DAT News Team","originalImageUrl":"/api/assets/stock_images/digital_asset_treasu_df7a4960.jpg","scrapedAt":"2025-09-29T09:47:14.935Z","isScraped":0},{"id":"7ec7ce7b-dbdc-4cfc-9977-0922e3d6b88c","outletId":"dat","title":"Treasury's draft digital asset legislation – a pragmatic step forward for Australia's crypto sector","summary":"The release of Treasury's draft digital asset legislation provides greater consumer protection and clear guidelines for market operators","body":"<p>The release of Treasury's draft digital asset legislation is a pragmatic step forward towards allowing Australia to become an innovator and powerhouse in the global crypto market, by providing greater consumer protection and clear guidelines for market operators, which are long overdue.</p>\n\n<p>By leveraging the established AFSL regime, the legislation ensures a robust regulatory environment that protects consumers, without placing unnecessary red tape on market operators, something that Crypto.com has been advocating for throughout the year.</p>\n\n<p>In 2025, Crypto.com has held meetings across the country with senior members of the Government and Opposition, highlighting the benefits of utilising the AFSL regime as the basis of our regulatory framework, while also keeping the pressure on to introduce draft legislation by year-end.</p>\n\n<p>Crucially, the government's decision to leverage the existing AFSL regime, rather than introducing a requirement for businesses to hold a market operating licence as previously proposed by ASIC, demonstrates a clear understanding of the sector's needs. This approach is more efficient, building on established regulatory infrastructure and expertise, while avoiding unnecessary complexity and cost.</p>\n\n<p>The draft legislation, unveiled by Assistant Treasurer Daniel Mulino, proposes to formally introduce \"digital asset platforms\" and \"tokenised custody platforms\" as financial products under the Corporations Act, bringing them under ASIC's oversight. We see this a positive step forward, as the greater level of oversight will create accountability for firms operating in the Australian market, with significant penalties for non-compliance.</p>\n\n<p>This approach not only supports reputable operators but also enhances consumer protections, fostering sustainable, long-term growth for the industry. By leveraging tried and tested regulatory measures from overseas, such as the UK's FCA principles and Europe's MiCA regime, the framework ensures that digital assets are integrated into portfolios with the same oversight and protection as traditional financial products.</p>\n\n<p>The draft bill addresses uncertainty by setting targeted rules for key activities, and the consultation period allows for further refinement based on real-world feedback. This plays a key role in encouraging overseas investment here in Australia.</p>\n\n<p>Overall, Treasury's draft digital asset legislation is a turning point for Australia.

Senator Cynthia Lummis and Representative Nick Begich are spearheading the proposal, which would encourage the U.S. Treasury to adopt Bitcoin as part of national reserves.</p>\n\n<p>The move highlights how Washington is seeking expert guidance on Bitcoin integration. Michael Saylor, the outspoken MicroStrategy co-founder, has been tapped to advise legislators.</p>\n\n<p>His role will focus on providing insight into Bitcoin's long-term utility as a strategic asset. Other executives from leading blockchain firms will also join the effort.</p>\n\n<p>Advocates argue that a Bitcoin reserve could strengthen financial stability and provide protection against inflation. Critics, however, question its volatility and potential systemic risks.</p>\n\n<p>Still, policymakers appear determined to explore all angles before advancing the measure further.</p>\n\n<h3>Bitcoin Reserve Bill Roundtable: Who Will Join Lummis and Begich?</h3>\n\n<p>Senator Lummis and Representative Begich will host a high-level roundtable with prominent crypto figures. Michael Saylor leads the lineup with Fundstrat CEO Tom Lee, who is also chairman of BitMine, and MARA CEO Fred Thiel, according to crypto advocacy group The Digital Chambers.</p>\n\n<p>They are joined by other crypto executives, and representatives from Fidelity Digital Assets.

Moreover, the discussion is expected to inform a draft version of the bill in the coming months.</p>\n\n<h3>Potential Effects on Crypto Casinos</h3>\n\n<p>The Bitcoin reserve bill could ripple into the crypto casino industry. If adopted, the measure might boost confidence in Bitcoin's legitimacy. In turn, this may attract new users to crypto casinos, especially those offering Bitcoin as a payment option.</p>\n\n<p>Additionally, increased trust could drive more players to real money online casinos, expanding liquidity and transaction volumes.</p>\n\n<p>However, regulation could also tighten oversight on crypto casinos.

Each day, new coins surface, established players evolve, and presales create excitement among investors. Among the best new meme coin presales now, three names dominate conversations: Bull Zilla, SPX6900, and Apecoin. These projects don't just symbolize speculative energy; they highlight different aspects of blockchain economics, staking loyalty, liquidity-driven volatility, and legacy utility.</p>\n\n<p>For financial students, blockchain developers, analysts, and enthusiasts of meme coins, these tokens demonstrate how meme culture intersects with financial engineering.</p>\n\n<h3>BullZilla: The Heart of the Best New Meme Coin Presales Now</h3>\n\n<p>When discussing the best new meme coin presales now, BullZilla takes center stage. It is currently in Stage 4 (Red Candle Buffet), Phase 4B, priced at $0.00009241. With over $680,000 raised and more than 2,100 holders, BullZilla has transitioned from hype to structured community building.</p>\n\n<h3>The HODL Furnace: Loyalty That Pays</h3>\n\n<p>Unlike fleeting meme tokens, BullZilla builds long-term engagement. The HODL Furnace enables users to stake tokens for a massive 70% APY, transforming nervous short-term sellers into committed holders. Vesting mechanics amplify rewards over time, ensuring those who stick around earn more than early flippers.</p>\n\n<p>This design transforms \"paper hands\" into what the project calls \"diamond claws,\" reinforcing community strength. That's why BullZilla ($BZIL) is widely recognized as one of the best new meme coin presales now, it actively turns volatility into loyalty.</p>\n\n<h3>The Roarblood Vault: Incentivizing Growth</h3>\n\n<p>At the ecosystem's core lies the Roarblood Vault, BullZilla's treasury. It powers a referral program that grants:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>A 10% bonus for buyers spending $50 or more</li>\n<li>A 10% cut for referrers on every transaction introduced</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>This ensures BullZilla expands not through hype alone but through aligned incentives. By rewarding loyalty, the vault ensures sustainability, a crucial quality that elevates BullZilla among the best new meme coin presales now.</p>\n\n<h3>How to Buy BullZilla Coins</h3>\n\n<p>Getting started is straightforward:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Set Up a Wallet:</strong> Install a Web3 wallet like MetaMask or Trust Wallet</li>\n<li><strong>Buy ETH:</strong> Purchase Ethereum from Binance or Coinbase, then transfer it to your wallet</li>\n<li><strong>Visit the Presale Portal:</strong> Connect your wallet to BullZilla's official site</li>\n<li><strong>Swap for $BZIL:</strong> Select your purchase amount and confirm the swap</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>Ease of access is another reason BullZilla is regarded as one of the best new meme coin presales now.</p>\n\n<h3>SPX6900: Volatility's Test Case</h3>\n\n<p>No list of the best new meme coins now is complete without SPX6900. Recently, it experienced a 9.89% correction, falling to $1.07 while maintaining a market capitalization of just under $1 billion.</p>\n\n<p>Daily trading volume surged +54.99% to $41.54M, underscoring how liquidity can amplify both gains and losses. Analysts stress that this wasn't project decay but an imbalance between high-frequency trading and long-term holders.</p>\n\n<p>SPX6900 is important because it proves meme coins aren't just speculative jokes; they are liquidity experiments shaping broader crypto narratives. Its interplay with Dogwifhat and BullZilla cements its position as a central player among the best new meme coins now.</p>\n\n<h3>Apecoin: Legacy Meets Market Pressure</h3>\n\n<p>Apecoin, tethered to the Bored Ape Yacht Club brand, has cultural weight that most meme coins lack. Yet being part of the best new meme coins now isn't easy when tokenomics work against momentum.</p>\n\n<p>Currently priced at $0.5273, with a market cap of $396.93M, ApeCoin faces ongoing downward pressure. Its token unlock schedule, expanding supply, has strained prices, compounded by declining NFT hype.</p>\n\n<p>Despite this, ApeCoin still earns its place among the best new meme coins now due to its integration with Web3 gaming and metaverse projects. While prices dip, its infrastructure and brand utility keep it relevant. For analysts, ApeCoin is a case study in how tokenomics define sustainability more than hype alone.</p>\n\n<h3>Conclusion: Three Paths, One Future</h3>\n\n<p>The best new meme coin presales now highlight three different forces shaping the crypto market.</p>\n\n<p>BullZilla proves loyalty mechanisms and staking rewards can create conviction and ROI. SPX6900 shows that volatility is not weakness but a liquidity-driven narrative. Apecoin demonstrates that legacy and utility matter, even under pressure from token unlocks.</p>\n\n<p>Together, they capture the essence of meme coin evolution: loyalty, liquidity, and legacy. For students, developers, and enthusiasts, these coins are not just speculative plays but real-time laboratories of blockchain economics.</p>","thumbnail":"/api/assets/stock_images/corporate_business_s_c651cf55.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-29T09:32:55.886Z","tags":["MicroStrategy","Bitcoin","Meme Coins","BullZilla","SPX6900","Apecoin"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://example.com/microstrategy-bullzilla-meme-coin-analysis","author":"MicroStrategy News Team","originalImageUrl":"/api/assets/stock_images/meme_coins_cryptocur_e3fd44b2.jpg","scrapedAt":"2025-09-29T09:32:55.886Z","isScraped":0},{"id":"618cba31-e116-47a4-94e8-3f5182752bc7","outletId":"microstrategy","title":"Ethereum Holds $3,900, Avalanche Nears $29, and BullZilla Presale Joins MicroStrategy's Radar Among the Hottest 100X Meme Coins","summary":"Discover the latest Ethereum and Avalanche prices alongside BullZilla's explosive potential as one of the best 100x meme coins this September 2025","body":"<p>In the fast-paced crypto world, where giants like Ethereum and Avalanche dominate, a new contender has emerged that could change the game entirely. BullZilla is capturing the attention of financial students, crypto enthusiasts, blockchain developers, and analysts alike.</p>\n\n<p>It's being talked about as one of the most promising 100x meme coins in September 2025, and its early-stage presale is drawing serious interest. This article explores these three cryptos, BullZilla, Ethereum, and Avalanche, spotlighting BullZilla's exceptional return potential amid the current market landscape.</p>\n\n<h3>BullZilla: The Meme Coin Primed for Explosive Growth</h3>\n\n<p>BullZilla has carved out a unique niche in the crowded meme coin market by combining classic meme coin energy with smart financial features. Currently in its 4th presale stage, called the \"Red Candle Buffet,\" BullZilla ($BZIL) token is priced attractively at just $0.00009241. Early investors have already seen an astounding ROI of over 5,600% from the Stage 4B price to the anticipated listing price of $0.00527.</p>\n\n<p>BullZilla's presale tally has surpassed $680,000, and with more than 2,100 token holders, this trending meme token shows remarkable momentum. One feature that sets BullZilla apart from other 100x meme coins is its token burn mechanism, which reduces supply over time, increasing scarcity and potential value. Investors participating in the bullzilla early stage presale enjoy early bird pricing and the chance to secure millions of tokens for modest investments.</p>\n\n<p>The potential ROI is eye-popping. A $1,000 investment today could translate to over 10 million tokens, positioning BullZilla as a frontrunner in the best 100x meme coins available in September 2025. As the project moves into its next phase, an expected price surge of over 7% is fueling excitement across crypto forums and social channels.</p>\n\n<p>BullZilla is more than a meme coin; it's an engineered project blending community energy with a sound tokenomic model, making it a rare opportunity in the 100x meme coins sphere.</p>\n\n<h3>How to Get Involved in BullZilla's Presale</h3>\n\n<p>Participating in the bullzilla early-stage presale requires a few simple steps:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>First, set up a Web3 wallet like MetaMask or Trust Wallet</li>\n<li>Next, buy Ethereum from a reputable exchange such as Binance or Coinbase, then transfer ETH to your wallet</li>\n<li>Visit the official BullZilla presale portal, connect your wallet, and swap ETH for $BZIL tokens</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>This straightforward process opens the door to one of the most exciting trending meme tokens and puts you on the path to potentially significant ROI.</p>\n\n<h3>Ethereum (ETH): The Backbone of Smart Contracts</h3>\n\n<p>Ethereum's role as a foundational blockchain platform remains undisputed. As of today, Ethereum trades at $3,899.92, with significant trading volume supporting its robust liquidity. Known for pioneering smart contracts, Ethereum has undergone significant evolution, particularly with its transition to Proof-of-Stake consensus, which has improved scalability and reduced energy consumption.</p>\n\n<p>Ethereum is not a meme coin but is a critical component of the crypto ecosystem supporting decentralized finance (DeFi), NFTs, and numerous dApps. While it may not deliver the explosive ROI of the 100x meme coins like BullZilla, Ethereum offers stability, broad adoption, and continuous upgrades, key factors for long-term investment strategies.</p>\n\n<p>The high market cap and developer activity surrounding Ethereum create a strong foundation for future growth. For those studying blockchain, Ethereum's technical sophistication is often the benchmark to understand the ecosystem.</p>\n\n<h3>Avalanche (AVAX): The Speedy Contender for DeFi and dApps</h3>\n\n<p>Avalanche currently trades near $29.10 and is celebrated for its high throughput and quick transaction finality. With a consensus protocol designed for speed and scalability, Avalanche is gaining popularity among blockchain developers and decentralized application projects seeking alternatives to Ethereum's congestion issues.</p>\n\n<p>Avalanche's performance metrics place it firmly among the top platforms, but like Ethereum, it doesn't belong in the 100x meme coins category. Instead, it offers moderate growth potential rooted in utility and performance rather than speculative hype.</p>\n\n<p>The platform's ability to host multiple blockchains simultaneously and its support for custom dApps make it a favorite in DeFi circles. At the same time, the avalanche early-stage ecosystem continues to expand globally.</p>\n\n<h3>Final Thoughts: Balancing Risk and Opportunity in Crypto</h3>\n\n<p>The world of cryptocurrency is a thrilling blend of innovation and risk.

Their strategy is to raise funds using Wall Street tactics, accumulate crypto assets, and repeat the cycle. And week after week, many of the same names appear in the industry's boldest deals.</p>\n\n<p>Novogratz, Morehead, and Joe Lubin (co-founder of Ethereum), along with fellow Princeton classmates and longtime friends, are not just crypto industry veterans but central figures in this high-stakes push into digital assets, just as the broader financial tide is beginning to waver—and their bond dates back to their undergraduate days at Princeton in the 1980s.</p>\n\n<p>Novogratz and Lubin were college roommates. Novogratz was a wrestler from the East Coast; Lubin was a squash player with a computer science background. Morehead was an engineering student who played rugby and lived nearby. These bonds shaped decades of crypto dealmaking.</p>\n\n<p>While tight-knit networks are common in traditional finance, the crypto industry is built on the promise of decentralization and anonymity. Yet these familiar faces tell a different story, a dynamic that has earned them the nickname \"Princeton Mafia\" from Fortune magazine.</p>\n\n<p>Novogratz leads Galaxy, a digital asset financial services giant; Morehead is CEO of Pantera Capital, one of the earliest crypto investment firms; and Lubin, a co-founder of Ethereum, runs blockchain software company ConsenSys and serves as chairman of SharpLink, a publicly traded Ethereum treasury.</p>\n\n<p>With momentum building and prominent figures at the helm, the question becomes can DATs (digital asset treasuries) continue to deliver returns, or are they built on shaky foundations?</p>\n\n<p>\"With a good story and a good storyteller, you can bring more capital to Solana or Ethereum faster than before,\" Novogratz said in an interview.</p>\n\n<p>Galaxy and Pantera are among the top ten DAT investors and lenders. This tight network extends to dealmaking, with approximately one-third of DAT transactions involving the same small group of boutique investment banks. Overall, according to PitchBook data, the top ten DAT investors participated in approximately 14% of treasury deals over the past six months.</p>\n\n<p>For these three Princeton alumni, none of this was planned. But something, inherited from their undergraduate days, remained: a propensity for risk and a belief that Wall Street could be restructured faster and lighter. Each had carved out their own niche in finance or technology. Then their paths began to cross again.</p>\n\n<p>In May, Lubin helped launch SharpLink Gaming, an Ethereum treasury company, with Pantera and Galaxy among its investors. Lubin said the friends only discussed DAT after the investors were confirmed. Pantera and Galaxy are also investors in BitMine Immersion, a treasury company that also holds Ethereum.</p>\n\n<p>\"We're friends, but we don't see each other every day,\" Lubin said in a recent interview. \"But when we do, we have a lot to talk about.\"</p>\n\n<p>Their companies also compete. In September, Pantera backed a new Solana-focused DAT called Helius. Just days earlier, Galaxy helped launch a competitor called Forward Industries. It wasn't a coordinated move. \"It just so happened that our companies both launched Solana DATs within a week of each other,\" Morehead said.</p>\n\n<p>This approach paid off handsomely, until it stopped. In June, SharpLink, backed by Lubin, saw its stock plummet 72% in a single day after filing to register a stock offering. BitMine's stock plummeted 40% after a similar filing. These sell-offs serve as a stark reminder of the inherent volatility in the high-wire act of crypto.</p>\n\n<p>These players are still expanding their reach. Galaxy often acts as a service provider—staking tokens, designing DeFi strategies, and advising teams. Pantera has over $1 billion in exposure to DATs and has backed over 15 companies.</p>\n\n<p>Novogratz doesn't think the market has peaked. \"I don't think all DATs will succeed, but if they can achieve critical mass—increasing returns on the underlying token and building the ecosystem—I think they'll be positive for crypto overall. These are the public companies that are here to stay for the long term.\"</p>","thumbnail":"/api/assets/stock_images/princeton_university_cc91cfc7.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-29T09:21:19.937Z","tags":["Princeton","Crypto Treasury","DAT","Mike Novogratz"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://example.com/princeton-mafia-crypto-treasury","author":"Mike Novogratz News Team","originalImageUrl":"/api/assets/stock_images/princeton_university_cc91cfc7.jpg","scrapedAt":"2025-09-29T09:21:19.937Z","isScraped":0},{"id":"e0cfcbac-7031-4860-b65c-7b32eb2ba1fd","outletId":"mike-novogratz","title":"$200,000 BTC: Mike Novogratz Predicts Bitcoin Price Surge","summary":"Galaxy's Novogratz is still bullish on Bitcoin and believes the current crypto cycle could play out differently","body":"<p>Galaxy Digital CEO Mike Novogratz has issued yet another bold Bitcoin prediction. \"Can Bitcoin get to 200,000? Of course it could,\" he said. Novogratz believes the current crypto cycle could play out differently than previous ones, citing unprecedented institutional interest and the rise of tokenized finance.

At the end of the day, price is more than just numbers on a chart — it's about narrative, community, and belief,\" he said.</p>\n\n<p>Historically, crypto markets have moved in four-year cycles, often culminating in euphoric peaks followed by sharp corrections. \"Normally, this would be the time we should be selling it all and going away,\" Novogratz said, referencing the pattern seen in 2017 and 2021. \"And the most dangerous words in investing are, 'It could be different this time.' But — it's going to be different this time.\"</p>\n\n<h3>How could crypto transform the world?</h3>\n\n<p>Novogratz argued that the difference now lies in institutional adoption and infrastructure development. \"What we're seeing at Galaxy is every bank and institution realizing, 'We need some form of hot and cold wallets because we're going to trade currencies in token and equities in token.' Custodians are going to be important,\" he explained.</p>\n\n<p>He revealed that Galaxy recently tokenized its own stock on Superstate, which runs on Solana.

He believes the long wait for mainstream adoption is over, with BlackRock's ETF push and Larry Fink's advocacy finally drawing Wall Street into digital assets.</p>\n\n<p>Unlike the predictable four-year cycles that previously defined crypto, Novogratz expects this run to be shaped by a new mix of regulatory clarity, tokenization, and corporate integration. He predicts banks and large companies will accelerate the move from accounts to blockchain wallets, while portfolios of the future will blend traditional securities with tokenized stocks, bonds, and loans.</p>\n\n<p>Novogratz also argues that community power remains one of crypto's strongest drivers of value. He points to XRP and Cardano as examples of networks that thrive more on dedicated supporters than on widespread utility. Even Tesla and MicroStrategy, he says, now operate with a \"crypto-like cult dynamic\" that sustains their valuations.</p>\n\n<p>His own conviction lies in four holdings: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Hyperliquid, and Solana. Of these, he highlights Solana's potential to become a platform for global capital markets, backed by the interest of high-frequency trading firms such as Jump Capital.</p>\n\n<p>Despite acknowledging global risks and hedging against lofty stock valuations, Novogratz believes the bull market will end in spectacular fashion.

In a recent interview, Novogratz stated that the selection of the next Fed chair might become the \"biggest bull catalyst for Bitcoin\" and the broader cryptocurrency market. He emphasized that if the new leader adopts a dovish approach, Bitcoin could experience a parabolic rally.</p>\n\n<h3>The Impact of a Dovish Fed Chair</h3>\n\n<p>Novogratz pointed out that the market is watching closely for a dovish Federal Reserve Chair, suggesting that if the incoming leader shifts to an aggressive dovish stance, it could lead to a sharp increase in asset prices, including Bitcoin. According to Novogratz, such a shift could push Bitcoin's price to $200,000. He added that this would drastically alter how the cryptocurrency is perceived, reinforcing its position as a significant asset in global markets.</p>\n\n<p>However, Novogratz also cautioned that the economic consequences of such a move could be severe, potentially undermining the Federal Reserve's independence. This, he warned, could have detrimental long-term effects on the U.S. economy.</p>\n\n<h3>Fed Chair Nominee Pool and Market Reactions</h3>\n\n<p>President Donald Trump recently confirmed a list of potential nominees to replace Jerome Powell as Fed Chair. Among the contenders are Kevin Hassett, former Fed Governor Kevin Warsh, and current Fed Governor Chris Waller. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was also mentioned but has indicated no interest in the role. The market remains uncertain about how these candidates will impact monetary policy.</p>\n\n<p>Novogratz noted that while the market anticipates a dovish nominee, confirmation will only come once the appointment is finalized. He stated that market participants would not fully believe in the possibility of a dovish shift until the actual decision is made.</p>\n\n<h3>Bitcoin Market Sentiment and Liquidations</h3>\n\n<p>Despite these developments, Bitcoin's recent price movements have not followed the expected bullish trajectory. Novogratz acknowledged that while a dovish Fed could boost Bitcoin in the short term, it might not happen immediately. In the past week, the crypto market faced significant liquidations, totaling over $1.1 billion. Ethereum led the altcoin selloff, with $409 million in liquidations, while Bitcoin accounted for $272 million.</p>\n\n<p>In addition, traders are preparing for a massive Bitcoin options expiry worth $17 billion. This expiry, linked to Bitcoin contracts on Deribit, has led to a slightly bearish outlook, as indicated by a put-call ratio of 0.75. Despite these challenges, Novogratz remains optimistic that a dovish Fed appointment could shift sentiment overnight and propel Bitcoin to new heights.</p>","thumbnail":"/api/assets/stock_images/cryptocurrency_tradi_446948fe.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-29T09:06:36.632Z","tags":null,"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://example.com/novogratz-bitcoin-200k-prediction","author":"Galaxy Digital News Team","originalImageUrl":"/api/assets/stock_images/bitcoin_price_chart__5d535711.jpg","scrapedAt":"2025-09-29T09:06:36.632Z","isScraped":0},{"id":"d9528c2b-8c76-4b49-aea0-ac2e4fccb42f","outletId":"galaxy-digital","title":"Novogratz: 'I Didn't Think XRP Would Last'","summary":"Cryptocurrency mogul Mike Novogratz claims that XRP has one of the strongest communities","body":"<p>During a recent conversation with podcaster Kyle Chasse, Galaxy Digital CEO Mike Novogratz admitted that he did not think that XRP would survive the SEC lawsuit. \"XRP has one of the strongest communities there is,\" Novogratz said.

However, he then came to realize that this is half of what crypto essentially is.</p>\n\n<p>\"After 2008, people did not trust governments…We have so little trust that we are finding trust in these online crypto communities,\" Novogratz noted. He has added that all cryptocurrencies that have become successful are supported by cult-like communities. This sets crypto apart from the equities market, given that individual stocks rarely have such passionate followers behind them (except for rather rare examples like Tesla).</p>\n\n<p>Novogratz recalls that he has one employee who essentially sees Bitcoin as his entire life purpose. \"Who am I to judge\"?

This explains why bitcoin stalled, even though a lower interest rate environment typically benefits risk assets.”The bitcoin price correction was expected following the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting, according to some analysts.“While the FOMC meeting sparked optimism for a Q4 breakout, bitcoin was more likely to enter a 1-2 week consolidation phase immediately afterward,\" Markus Thielen, the chief executive of 10x Research, said via email, pointing to a rise in leveraged longs that are increasingly vulnerable as liquidity thinned and raising the risk of a downside break.“On-chain metrics provide further evidence that market activity is once again fading,” Thielen added. \"The real question: how long can this consolidation drag on?”The SEC approval \"will open up the floodgates,\" Steve Feinour, a partner at Stradley Ronon, told Reuters.“The big trigger this week was the SEC’s approval of generic listing standards for crypto ETFs on the likes of NYSE, Nasdaq, and Cboe,” Nic Puckrin, macroeconomics analyst and founder of The Coin Bureau, said in emailed comments.“Until now, every ETF had to go through a lengthy, case-by-case process. Now, new products can be listed in just 75 days. This is significant for funds tied to ethereum, solana and dogecoin, or even diversified crypto baskets, as it dramatically reduces the barriers.”Alongside the rule change and proving there is demand for crypto ETFs beyond bitcoin and ethereum, the first U.S. ETFs to offer spot exposure to Ripple’s XRP and dogecoin started trading on Thursday, generating about $55 million in trading volume.The REX-Osprey XRP ETF, listed on Cboe under the ticker XRPR, saw the largest debut volume of any ETF launch this year, according an X post by Bloomberg Intelligence senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas.Sign up now for CryptoCodex—A free crypto newsletter that will get you ahead of the marketForbes‘We’re Toast’—Tesla CEO Elon Musk Issues Serious $37 Trillion Warning As Fed Bitcoin Price Boom PredictedBy Billy BambroughThe bitcoin price has rocketed higher over the last few years, with some predicting the bitcoin price could be about to soar even higher.Forbes Digital AssetsIn August, NovaDius Wealth president Nate Geraci said it makes “zero sense\" for BlackRock to ignore cryptocurrencies beyond bitcoin and ethereum.“Otherwise, they’re basically saying bitcoin and ethereum are only ones that will ever have value.

Recognizing the importance of this litigation, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the “CFTC”) filed a brief on August 28, 2025[4] addressing in great detail which “goods” and “articles” are included in the definition of “commodity” and why this is important, particularly now.\n\n\n\tThe Facts of the Case.\n\n\nThe facts of the case are very straightforward. In 2020, the CFTC, along with state attorneys general and regulators from thirty states, brought a fraud action against defendants in connection with a scheme to entice mostly retired individuals to use their retirement funds to invest in gold and silver bullion and coins.[5] The defendants made numerous false statements and sold otherwise liquid precious metals, coins, and bullion at exorbitant markups (e.g., a 128% markup for silver and 91% for gold), claiming that these were unique numismatic assets.[6] They were not. The CFTC sued under § 6(c)(1) of the CEA and § 180.1 of the CFTC regulations.[7] None of the contracts offered under the defendants’ scheme were derivatives (i.e., “commodity interests”), which was not in dispute between the parties.[8] \n\n\n\tCFTC’s Jurisdiction.\n\n\nUnder the CEA, the CFTC has exclusive jurisdiction over transactions in “commodity interests,”[9] meaning that only the CFTC can promulgate regulations as well as prosecute fraud and manipulation in derivatives – and that federal preemption applies, to the exclusion of states’ and other federal regulators’ jurisdictional reach.\n\nHowever, with respect to transactions involving only “commodities” without derivatives, the CFTC has only enforcement jurisdiction.[10] Further, if there is no “commodity” involved, the CFTC has no jurisdictional reach at all. Whether gold and silver bullion is a “commodity” is the core issue in this case because, as the August 28 CFTC’s Brief states, “[w]ithout correction of the [July 21 Opinion and Order] to clarify that precious metals are commodities, it will be impossible for the parties to prepare for and conduct the rapidly approaching trial in this case.”[11]\n\n\n\tDefining Commodity.\n\n\nThe August 28 CFTC’s Brief provides a very detailed analysis of the scope of the definition of “commodity” under the CEA. \n\nFirst, the CFTC discusses how the definition in § 1a(9) came about and how it was expanded since 1922, and explains that because the definition provides a list of enumerated agricultural commodities, catch-all provisions were included to address additional commodities in which there may develop a futures market in the future.[12] Second, the CFTC points out that the CEA itself includes additional sub-definitions of agricultural, exempt,[13] and excluded commodities, as well as several other sections in which gold and precious metals are specifically referenced (e.g., § 19 of the CEA).[14] Third, the CFTC lists numerous cases which held that currencies, interest rates or indices, events and occurrences, digital assets / cryptocurrencies, and precious metals are all recognized as commodities.[15] Fourth, the CFTC notes that the carve-out of onions and movie box office receivables proves that the scope of the “commodity” definition in § 1a(9) is much broader than merely agricultural commodities.[16] \n\nIn fact, even though not mentioned in the August 28 CFTC’s Brief, on July 18, 2025, the President signed into law the GENIUS Act, which amended the CEA and added to the list of carved out “commodities” payment stablecoins issued under the GENIUS Act.[17] Logically, if something was not already a “commodity,” there would be no reason to carve that good or article from the definition of a “commodity,” indicating that stablecoins were previously commodities. \n\nFinally, the CFTC states that “[m]oreover, precious metals are ‘goods’ or ‘articles’ ‘in which contracts for future delivery are presently . . . dealt in,’ as numerous precious metals futures contracts are traded on CFTC-regulated exchanges, such as those operated by ICE Futures US and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange.”\n\nAdditionally, to follow the judge’s logic in the July 21 Opinion and Order, the definition of “security” under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934[18] would only include a very narrow list of “securities,” per 15 U.S.C. § 77b(1), and clearly would not include investment contracts on orange grove properties in Florida, as is now well-established under the Howey Test.[19] And ignoring the holdings of numerous cases addressing the scope of § 1a(9) of the CEA is “absolutely weird,” to quote U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia (in reference to another unrelated case).\n\nThe defendants’ argument that the gold and silver bullion had significant numismatic value is inapposite because there were millions of these coins issued,[20] they are contemporary, and the secondary market trading in these coins is at, or substantially at, the spot price of gold and silver, proving that the coins and the bullion are the same as precious metals themselves, which are “commodities.”[21]\n\n\n\tDiscussion of § 2(C)(2)(D) and § 19 of the CEA.\n\n\nThe judge addressed § 2(C)(2)(D) of the CEA, discussing the “actual delivery” exemption. This provision had nothing to do with the case at hand, because the contracts in question were not leveraged retail commodity contracts and therefore not derivatives, meaning that the fact that these coins and bullion were “actually delivered” has no bearing on this case. \n\nLikewise, these contracts were not § 19 leveraged contracts, which is not alleged in this case. However, the CFTC did note that reference to § 19 is helpful since it specifically refers to precious metals, bullion, and coins, confirming that gold and silver are “commodities” under the CEA.\n\n\n\tImplications on other markets.\n\n\nIf the Texas judge’s conclusion in the July 21 Opinion and Order that gold and silver are not “commodities” were to stand, significant implications would follow: first, there would be confusion in the commodities industry, which relies on existing case law and the CFTC’s interpretation of what is a “commodity”; second, there would be significant uncertainty over the CFTC’s anti-fraud and anti-manipulation jurisdictional reach under § 6(c)(1) of the CEA and § 180.1 of the CFTC regulations; and third, participants in novel commodities markets, e.g., markets in digital commodities and digital assets, would be reluctant to develop new products given the uncertainty over the CFTC’s jurisdictional reach, especially at a time when the CFTC is likely to be granted additional exclusive jurisdiction over spot and forward (i.e., non-derivative) markets in digital commodities (e.g., under the Clarity Act enacted in the U.S. House on July 17, 2025, or similar legislation).[22]\n\nIn sum, the Texas judge’s July 21 opinion either completely missed or significantly and materially misinterpreted the CEA and over 100 years worth of legal precedent.\n\n[1] Mem.

See 7 U.S.C. § 1a(10)(A) (defining “commodity interests” to include futures, swaps, options, and certain leveraged transactions).\n\n[9] § 2(a)(1)(A) of the CEA gives the CFTC exclusive jurisdiction over “transactions involving swaps or contracts of sale of a commodity for future delivery.”\n\n[10] § 6(c)(1) of the CEA and 17 C.F.R. § 180.1 of CFTC regulations which prohibit fraud “in connection with … a contract of sale of commodity in interstate commerce.”\n\n[11] August 28 CFTC’s Brief at 15.\n\n[12] Id. at 6–8.\n\n[13] The August 28 CFTC’s Brief states that: “[p]hysical commodities such as gold, silver, platinum, palladium, oil, and gas are all examples of “exempt” commodities that are not agricultural but are nonetheless “commodities” under the CEA.”\n\n[14] August 28 CFTC’s Brief at 8–11, 18–22.\n\n[15] Id. at 12–14.\n\n[16] Id. at 6.\n\n[17] Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act, Pub.

Polar Bear Bullion are readily available to the public and are not rare. In fact, there are over 6 million units of Polar Bear Bullion in circulation.”\n\n[21] For example, an ancient Byzantine gold coin (solidus) typically included 4.5 grams of gold, which as of the date of this article, is approximately $491 without taking into account its numismatic value; however, a Constantine the Great gold solidus coin minted between 307 and 337 may trade between $5,000 and $13,000 and one is currently listed on eBay for $128,000. This example illustrates that a highly rare gold coin of a numismatic value will be worth far more than the value of the precious metal itself and would certainly not itself be a “commodity.”\n\n[22] See House Comm. on Fin.

The guidance was designed to steer DCMs toward VCCs that demonstrate integrity in their environmental claims, emphasizing transparency, additionality, permanence, and robust methodologies and verification procedures. \n\nThe CFTC states that the withdrawal is based on its determination that existing regulations under the Commodity Exchange Act and Parts 38 and 40 of the CFTC Rules already provide a sufficient framework for evaluating and listing such contracts. The CFTC also notes that the guidance created a disproportionate focus on VCC derivatives, potentially leading to confusion and inconsistent application of its broader regulatory framework.\n\nThis move appears consistent with the current administration’s deregulatory agenda, which has emphasized reducing agency guidance and streamlining regulatory burdens. However, the withdrawal may introduce greater uncertainty for DCMs attempting to comply with CFTC rules when listing VCC derivatives. Given the inherent complexity and variability of carbon credits—such as differences in project types, credit attributes, and verification standards—the absence of tailored guidance could make compliance more precarious for regulated entities.\n\nDCMs and market participants should monitor further developments and consider reassessing their internal protocols for evaluating environmental commodity derivatives. Please contact us if you would like help assessing the implications of this regulatory change for your operations.\n\n\n[View source.]","thumbnail":"/api/assets/scraped/thumb_scraped_cftc_1758561764049_epcx8.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-22T17:22:41.882Z","tags":[],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/cftc-withdraws-guidance-on-voluntary-7729994/","author":"Ryan Andrée\n \n \n\t\n \n\n \n + Follow\n x Following\n x Following \n - Unfollow\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\t\t\n \n \n \n \n Brook Detterman\n \n \n\t\n \n\n \n + Follow\n x Following\n x Following \n - Unfollow\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\t\t\n \n \n \n \n Claire Schachter\n \n \n\t\n \n\n \n + Follow\n x Following\n x Following \n - Unfollow","originalImageUrl":"https://jdsupra-static.s3.amazonaws.com/profile-images/og.15478_5804.jpg","scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T17:22:44.226Z","isScraped":1},{"id":"321b9be6-f6a8-4034-9e39-1231c52340c1","outletId":"k-star","title":"Central Bank Digital Currency Tracker - Atlantic Council","summary":"137 countries & currency unions, representing 98% of global GDP, are exploring a CBDC.

Instead of printing money, the central bank issues electronic coins or accounts backed by the full faith and credit of the government.\n\n\n\n\n\nBut don’t digital currencies already exist?\n\n\n\nThere are already thousands of digital currencies, commonly called cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin is the most well-known fully decentralized cryptocurrency. Another type of cryptocurrency are stablecoins, whose value is pegged to an asset or a fiat currency like the dollar. Cryptocurrencies run on distributed-ledger technology, meaning that multiple devices all over the world, not one central hub, are constantly verifying the accuracy of the transaction. But this is different from a central bank issuing a digital currency.\n\n\n\n\n\nSo why would a government get into digital currencies?\n\n\n\nThere are many reasons to explore digital currencies, and the motivation of different countries for issuing CBDCs depends on their economic situation. Some common motivations are: promoting financial inclusion by providing easy and safer access to money for unbanked and underbanked populations; introducing competition and resilience in the domestic payments market, which might need incentives to provide cheaper and better access to money; increasing efficiency in payments and lowering transaction costs; creating programmable money and improving transparency in money flows; and providing for the seamless and easy flow of monetary and fiscal policy.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat are the challenges?\n\n\n\nThere are several challenges, and each one needs careful consideration before a country launches a CBDC. Citizens could pull too much money out of banks at once by purchasing CBDCs, triggering a run on banks—affecting their ability to lend and sending a shock to interest rates. This is especially a problem for countries with unstable financial systems. CBDCs also carry operational risks, since they are vulnerable to cyber attacks and need to be made resilient against them. Finally, CBDCs require a complex regulatory framework including privacy, consumer protection, and anti-money laundering standards which need to be made more robust before adopting this technology.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat are the national security implications of a CBDC?\n\n\n\nNew payments systems create externalities that impact the daily lives of citizens, and can possibly jeopardize the national security objectives of the country. They can, for example, limit the United States’ ability to track cross-border flows and enforce sanctions.

Instead of printing money, the central bank issues electronic coins or accounts backed by the full faith and credit of the government.\n\n\n\n\n\nBut don’t digital currencies already exist?\n\n\n\nThere are already thousands of digital currencies, commonly called cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin is the most well-known fully decentralized cryptocurrency. Another type of cryptocurrency are stablecoins, whose value is pegged to an asset or a fiat currency like the dollar. Cryptocurrencies run on distributed-ledger technology, meaning that multiple devices all over the world, not one central hub, are constantly verifying the accuracy of the transaction. But this is different from a central bank issuing a digital currency.\n\n\n\n\n\nSo why would a government get into digital currencies?\n\n\n\nThere are many reasons to explore digital currencies, and the motivation of different countries for issuing CBDCs depends on their economic situation. Some common motivations are: promoting financial inclusion by providing easy and safer access to money for unbanked and underbanked populations; introducing competition and resilience in the domestic payments market, which might need incentives to provide cheaper and better access to money; increasing efficiency in payments and lowering transaction costs; creating programmable money and improving transparency in money flows; and providing for the seamless and easy flow of monetary and fiscal policy.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat are the challenges?\n\n\n\nThere are several challenges, and each one needs careful consideration before a country launches a CBDC. Citizens could pull too much money out of banks at once by purchasing CBDCs, triggering a run on banks—affecting their ability to lend and sending a shock to interest rates. This is especially a problem for countries with unstable financial systems. CBDCs also carry operational risks, since they are vulnerable to cyber attacks and need to be made resilient against them. Finally, CBDCs require a complex regulatory framework including privacy, consumer protection, and anti-money laundering standards which need to be made more robust before adopting this technology.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat are the national security implications of a CBDC?\n\n\n\nNew payments systems create externalities that impact the daily lives of citizens, and can possibly jeopardize the national security objectives of the country. They can, for example, limit the United States’ ability to track cross-border flows and enforce sanctions. In the long term, the absence of US leadership and standards setting can have geopolitical consequences, especially if China and other countries maintain their first-mover advantage in the development of CBDCs.

Instead of printing money, the central bank issues electronic coins or accounts backed by the full faith and credit of the government.\n\n\n\n\n\nBut don’t digital currencies already exist?\n\n\n\nThere are already thousands of digital currencies, commonly called cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin is the most well-known fully decentralized cryptocurrency. Another type of cryptocurrency are stablecoins, whose value is pegged to an asset or a fiat currency like the dollar. Cryptocurrencies run on distributed-ledger technology, meaning that multiple devices all over the world, not one central hub, are constantly verifying the accuracy of the transaction. But this is different from a central bank issuing a digital currency.\n\n\n\n\n\nSo why would a government get into digital currencies?\n\n\n\nThere are many reasons to explore digital currencies, and the motivation of different countries for issuing CBDCs depends on their economic situation. Some common motivations are: promoting financial inclusion by providing easy and safer access to money for unbanked and underbanked populations; introducing competition and resilience in the domestic payments market, which might need incentives to provide cheaper and better access to money; increasing efficiency in payments and lowering transaction costs; creating programmable money and improving transparency in money flows; and providing for the seamless and easy flow of monetary and fiscal policy.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat are the challenges?\n\n\n\nThere are several challenges, and each one needs careful consideration before a country launches a CBDC. Citizens could pull too much money out of banks at once by purchasing CBDCs, triggering a run on banks—affecting their ability to lend and sending a shock to interest rates. This is especially a problem for countries with unstable financial systems. CBDCs also carry operational risks, since they are vulnerable to cyber attacks and need to be made resilient against them. Finally, CBDCs require a complex regulatory framework including privacy, consumer protection, and anti-money laundering standards which need to be made more robust before adopting this technology.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat are the national security implications of a CBDC?\n\n\n\nNew payments systems create externalities that impact the daily lives of citizens, and can possibly jeopardize the national security objectives of the country. They can, for example, limit the United States’ ability to track cross-border flows and enforce sanctions. In the long term, the absence of US leadership and standards setting can have geopolitical consequences, especially if China and other countries maintain their first-mover advantage in the development of CBDCs.

In May 2020 that number was only 35. Currently, 72 countries are in the advanced phase of exploration—development, pilot, or launch.\n\nThere is a new high of 49 CBDC pilot projects around the world. 3 countries have fully launched a digital currency—the Bahamas, Jamaica, and Nigeria. All three countries are focused on expanding the reach of their CBDCs domestically.\n\nEmerging markets are driving global retail CBDC growth to reduce cash use, enhance financial inclusion, and improve regulatory oversight. This trend is also a response to the growing proliferation of US dollar-backed stablecoins internationally.\n\nThe ECB is advancing a “global euro moment” as it pilots the digital euro, aiming to strengthen the euro’s international role. Similarly, the PBoC is promoting the digital yuan as part of its strategy for a multipolar currency system. Both efforts signal a competitive push toward currency internationalization through CBDCs.\n\nDigital yuan (e-CNY) is still the largest CBDC pilot in the world. In June 2024, total transaction volume reached 7 trillion e-CNY ($986 billion) in 17 provincial regions across sectors such as education, healthcare, and tourism. This figure is nearly four times the 1.8 trillion yuan ($253 billion) recorded by the People’s Bank of China in June 2023.\n\nIndia’s e-rupee is now the second-largest CBDC pilot. Digital rupee in circulation rose to ₹10.16 billion ($122 million) by March 2025, up 334% from ₹2.34 billion ($28 million) in 2024. In 2025, the Reserve Bank of India is expanding both retail and wholesale CBDCs with new use cases, offline functionality, and broader participation.\n\nThe US is an outlier amongst its peer central banks. In 2025, President Trump issued an executive order to halt all work on a retail CBDC, making the US the only country to do so. However, the US continues to engage in wholesale cross-border payments research through Project Agorá, an initiative in collaboration with six other major central banks.\n\nSince Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the G7 sanctions response, cross-border wholesale CBDC projects have more than doubled. There are currently 13 of them—including Project mBridge—which connects banks in China, Thailand, the UAE, Hong Kong, and Saudi Arabia. mBridge is now managed by the participating central banks, without BIS involvement.\n\nCountries prefer to take a phased approach to piloting their CBDCs. They use controlled environments like regulatory sandboxes to gradually test and scale implementation. This progressive rollout allows them to assess technological resilience, address privacy and security concerns, evaluate user adoption, and ensure interoperability with existing financial systems.\n\nNew Atlanticist\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tJun 3, 2025\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tFor dollar-backed stablecoins to be truly stable, the US needs to set international standards\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBy\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tJosh Lipsky\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe current patchwork of regulations around the globe creates more confusion, more friction in payments, and ultimately higher costs for consumers.\n\nNew Atlanticist\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMay 27, 2025\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat’s the Trump administration’s dollar strategy?

Such a decline would weaken confidence and invalidate the bullish thesis, delaying any recovery attempts.\n\n\n\nJupiter (JUP)\n\n\n\nJUP’s price declined by 5.2% in the last 24 hours and is now trading at $0.498. The altcoin slipped below the $0.507 support but remains above its two-month uptrend line. Holding this line is crucial for maintaining bullish sentiment and preventing further downside pressure.Sponsored\n.divm, .divd {display: none;}\n@media screen and (max-width: 768px) {.divm {display: block;}}@media screen and (min-width: 769px) {\n.divd {display: block;}}\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSponsored\n\n\n\nA 53.47 million JUP token unlock worth $26.71 million is scheduled this week. Historically, token unlocks increase selling pressure as supply outweighs demand. If the same occurs with JUP, the altcoin could lose strength and slip toward the $0.475 support.\n\n\n\nJUP Price Analysis. Source: TradingView\n\n\n\nHowever, strong demand ahead of unlocking could offset the negative effects. If buying momentum builds, JUP price could stabilize above $0.507, preserving its bullish structure. This would invalidate the bearish thesis and provide JUP with breathing room to consolidate.\n\n\n\nArtificial Superintelligence Alliance (FET)\n\n\n\nFET price dropped 8.4% this week, currently trading at $0.604. The altcoin remains in focus after 21Shares launched its Artificial Superintelligence Alliance AFET ETP, a move that could influence investor sentiment and potentially provide FET with momentum to stabilize after its recent decline.\n\n\n\nThe launch may serve as a catalyst for recovery, helping FET reclaim lost ground. If the token flips $0.612 into support, it could advance toward $0.637. Sustained bullish momentum would then allow the altcoin to push higher, with a possible move toward $0.663 on the daily chart.\n\n\n\nFET Price Analysis. Source: TradingView\n\n\n\nHowever, failure to attract buying pressure from this launch could worsen losses. If momentum stalls, the FET price risks sliding further, potentially dipping to $0.590. A deeper decline could send the altcoin to $0.573, invalidating the bullish thesis.","thumbnail":"/api/assets/scraped/thumb_scraped_altcoin_1758561733029_et8s7d.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-22T17:22:04.669Z","tags":[],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://beincrypto.com/altcoins-to-watch-fourth-week-september-2025/","author":null,"originalImageUrl":"https://assets.beincrypto.com/img/RcbPtLNskoLArFf33mQ7H6L6-_A=/smart/c6814581107844e6bf4f53ad24d36653","scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T17:22:13.563Z","isScraped":1},{"id":"f3c53228-259d-4cf1-9c15-1340f98aeef9","outletId":"alt-coin","title":"Which Crypto Will Boom in 2025: The 8 Fastest-Growing and Trending Cryptocurrencies","summary":"The crypto with the biggest growth potential and the most buzz.","body":"We research all brands listed and may earn a fee from our partners.

But after surviving regulatory storms, meme coin madness and the epic highs and lows of 2021 through 2023, the crypto market is finally showing signs of maturity. \n New players are emerging with real-world utility while some old names stage impressive comebacks. Meanwhile investors are, as always, trying to find which ones will boom — and trying to avoid the ones that could bust.\n Whether you’re a long-term HODLer or someone with itchy trading fingers, here are the coins you need to keep your eyes trained on.\n Ads by Money.

Bitcoin (BTC)\n Surprise, surprise: Bitcoin remains the north star of the crypto economy in 2025. Following the bitcoin halving of April 2024, and bolstered by the launch of spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the U.S., BTC broke through the $120,000 mark — though it has since come back down from its all-time high of $122,838.\n Reuters recently reported that the crypto sector breached a $4 trillion market cap in July, which was driven largely by bitcoin's momentum and rising macroeconomic uncertainty. And many analysts predict that bitcoin could hit $200,000 by year-end thanks to a convergence of scarcity, regulation and institutional interest in cryptocurrency.\n 2. Ethereum (ETH)\n No surprise here. Ethereum continues to dominate smart contract infrastructure and DeFi. With the successful rollout of EIP-4844 (“Proto-Danksharding” — yes, it sounds made up), gas fees are lower and transaction speeds are faster. The Pectra upgrade, which went live on May 7, 2025, also introduced features that make it easier to build Layer-2 apps.\n But the real reason ETH could boom in 2025? Institutional adoption is finally real. BlackRock and other big investment firms are eyeing ethereum’s infrastructure for tokenizing traditional assets. This coincides with renewed interest in ethereum ETFs and stablecoins (for which ethereum is the largest blockchain).\n 3. Solana (SOL)\n Solana went from “Ethereum killer” to “just killed” to “surprisingly alive and kicking.” Among the fastest-growing blockchains of 2025, the crypto network’s blazing speed and low transaction fees have made it the digital ecosystem of choice for consumer-facing dApps, including NFT marketplaces and DePIN protocols.\n Solana has been named one of 2025’s fastest-growing cryptos by several investment firms, which have highlighted its introduction of Firedancer, a new high-performance validator client that dramatically boosts network reliability. Solana Pay is also gaining traction, and the recent integration with Shopify signals real-world retail use cases.\n 4. XRP (Ripple)\n After spending years in regulatory limbo, XRP is now emerging as one of the year’s top performers, seeing a year-to-date gain of more than 380% as of July. \n While XRP may not inspire crypto Twitter like solana or ethereum, its institutional traction could make it a slow-but-steady gainer. A Ripple ETF is under consideration, with RippleNet expanding partnerships with global banks and the XRP Ledger focused on fast, low-cost, cross-border payments, XRP is carving out a distinct use case.\n 5. Chainlink (LINK)\n Chainlink is the unsung hero of crypto infrastructure. Its oracle network is crucial for bringing data onto blockchains, powering everything from DeFi price feeds to real-world asset tokenization (RWA). 2025 might be the year people realize how foundational it is.\n Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) is driving adoption across both DeFi and traditional finance. And as Business2Community reported, the crypto’s role in RWA tokenization and automated settlement is making it a critical infrastructure layer for Web3.\n 6. Hedera (HBAR)\n Unlike other entries on this list, Hedera isn’t a blockchain. Rather, it’s a hashgraph — a faster, more energy-efficient alternative that’s gaining traction in serious enterprise circles. \n With governance council members like Google, IBM and Boeing, Hedera is quietly building out a real-world use case empire, from carbon credits to supply chain management. Its growing reputation as the “enterprise DLT” could make 2025 HBAR’s break-out year.\n 7. Sui (SUI)\n Built by ex-Meta engineers, sui is a relative newcomer that is quickly becoming known for its speed, scalability and developer ease-of-use. The crypto network’s parallel execution models faster transactions and is attracting attention for its strong tooling in the NFT and gaming spaces. \n Developers across the board have openly stated how easy and enjoyable it is to work on sui’s network, which is usually a strong sign of future growth. Plus, gaming studios are starting to pay attention. If crypto gaming finds its footing this year, sui could be the engine that powers it.\n 8. Ethena (ENA)\n Ethena burst onto the DeFi scene by offering what it calls the “internet bond,” a synthetic dollar stablecoin-backed staking yield that is entirely on-chain and censorship-resistant. Called USDe, it’s not a traditional stablecoin and not exactly a yield farm — it’s something new, and DeFi loves new.\n With billions in total value locked shortly after launch and major backing from crypto-native venture capital firms, ethena is riding high on the synthetic dollar narrative and could define the next phase of decentralized finance.\n What to look for in a booming crypto\n Successful projects typically solve real problems — whether in finance, infrastructure or data — and maintain active developer communities that drive progress. These are hallmarks of high-potential cryptocurrencies. Projects gaining traction from both users and institutions also tend to have the staying power needed for long-term growth. \n Speaking of institutions, compliance has now taken a front seat. Cryptocurrencies that adhere to regulatory standards are being prioritized by banks, asset managers and even governments. Some of the fastest-growing cryptocurrencies are riding the wave of larger narratives, such as AI in blockchain and the emergence of decentralized physical infrastructure (DePIN). \n While the list above includes crypto available on centralized exchanges like Coinbase, you can find them — and others not yet listed on major exchanges — through platforms like Best Wallet in hopes of finding the next big coin or token that could surge in price. Best Wallet also acts as a crypto signal provider, which can help crypto traders better identify opportunities. \n Ultimately, while booms are rarely random, some really do come out of nowhere. Investors should stay informed, assess their risk tolerance and avoid overexposure to any single asset. And as always, do your own research.\n Ads by Money.

But his high was short-lived, as in the days following Oracle’s breakout earnings report, Ellison’s net worth plummeted $34 billion while Musk enjoyed a $35 billion surge. An economist tells Fortune the fall could be caused by “second thoughts” over Oracle’s recent deal with OpenAI.\n\n\n\nElon Musk had steadily held his spot at the top of the billionaires list for nearly a year straight before Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison briefly knocked him from the throne last week. Following better-than-expected quarterly results from the $856 billion software company, Oracle’s shares skyrocketed by 36% on September 10.\n\n\n\nThat meant a sizable gain for Ellison’s net worth, which is heavily tied to the company.\n\n\n\nThe 81-year-old entrepreneur co-founder, who currently owns more than 40% of Oracle, subsequently enjoyed a $101 billion surge in wealth overnight, to $393 billion—placing him ahead of Musk’s $385 billion fortune. He joined the likes of Amazon executive chairman Jeff Bezos and LVMH’s Bernard Arnault as the few members of the ultra-rich club to surpass the Tesla CEO since he took the top spot back in 2021.\n\n\n\nBut Ellison’s ranking as the world’s richest person was short-lived: His estimated net worth fell by $34 billion in the two days following Oracle’s stock surge, according to Bloomberg’s index. Although he has made some wealth gains since, he still stands at a net loss of $23 billion from his high last Wednesday. \n\n\n\nAnd J. Bradford DeLong, a U.C. Berkeley economist, tells Fortune that the sharp downfall was triggered by “second thoughts” around Oracle’s cloud deal with OpenAI.\n\n\n\n‘Second thoughts’ about Oracle’s involvement with AI \n\n\n\nOn Wednesday last week, the Wall Street Journal reported that OpenAI had signed a contract with Oracle to purchase $300 billion in computing power over the next five years. It’s one of the largest cloud contracts ever signed—and the markets went crazy. DeLong says that Oracle would profit heavily from the deal, regardless of whether OpenAI becomes the leading AI business-consumer tech company.\n\n\n\n“Ellison’s surge is because [of] the market’s perception of Oracle,” DeLong explains, adding that Ellison’s personal stake in the deal helped shift the company from “being irrelevant, to it being a key participant in OpenAI’s forthcoming construction and operation of data centers.”\n\n\n\nBut then came mounting concerns that the deal could lead to an “AI bubble.” Ellison was able to secure the OpenAI deal thanks to his budding business relationship with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, which allowed Oracle to buy a large amount of state-of-the-art GPUs, setting itself up as a key player in the AI industry. Yet analysts quickly warned of the financial risk—Oracle hasn’t proven itself as a top cloud provider, and OpenAI’s $12 billion annualized revenue pales in comparison to the $300 billion deal. Oracle is relying heavily on one customer who may not be able to afford or fully use what they’ve committed to; and since these obligations are promises for future services not yet delivered, the AI company could potentially delay, change, or cancel parts of the deal.\n\n\n\nDeLong says it raises the question of Oracle’s entanglement with OpenAI—how reliable the numbers are, what risks it entails, and how much of a game-changer the deal actually is. But still, he notes that many are optimistic, and those who are intrigued can cash in on the opportunity. \n\n\n\n“The subsequent decline came from second thoughts about the magnitude of Oracle’s involvement,” DeLong continues. \n\n\n\n“Still, if you are optimistic about OpenAI—and lots of people are very optimistic—buying Oracle stock is the best path available to you to invest in something that will succeed if OpenAI succeeds, because it is now clear that if OpenAI does very well, Oracle will do well.”\n\n\n\nThe puzzle behind Musk’s simultaneous $35 billion surge in net worth \n\n\n\nWhile Ellison’s net worth plummeted, Musk enjoyed being catapulted back to the top of the Bloomberg Billionaires Index with a $35 billion gain between September 10 and 12. However, why he experienced the wealth surge is less clear than Ellison’s toppling. \n\n\n\nDeLong says that Musk’s company Tesla hasn’t been doing anything special as of late that would cause the stock to sell for more. Instead, it could be tied to Tesla’s annual shareholding meeting this November; investors are optimistic that Tesla’s CEO will “make some good news” for the company before this fall’s vote. \n\n\n\n“It seems more like ‘we can make money by frontrunning the Big Boys as they manipulate stock prices’ is driving Tesla’s short-run asset valuation here—an internet-driven phenomenon,” DeLong explains. “Options traders are buying out-of-the-money calls on Tesla out of a belief that Elon Musk wants its stock price high in November.”\n\n\n\n“Such positive-feedback automatic demand by hedgers produces runups like we have seen in Tesla, that endure for a while.”Fortune Global Forum returns Oct. 26–27, 2025 in Riyadh.

Looking for new investments, he targeted the Israeli insurance and financial services firm Phoenix. Kushner entered into a tentative deal to buy a 47% stake in the company, enabled in part by a loan from the seller. All looked promising for a time. But regulatory hurdles soon proved too difficult, and the bid fell through.\n\nTen years later, he got a second chance. Through Affinity Partners, the private equity firm he founded in early 2021, he’s spent roughly a quarter of a billion dollars buying a nearly 10% stake in Phoenix since July 2024. One of Affinity’s biggest bets to date, it’s also the firm’s “best investment,” boasts Kushner, now 44, who says he’s already made an over 9-times return.\n\nThanks in part to bets like this, as well as his knack for raising funds from high-profile Middle Eastern backers, Kushner is now a billionaire. Forbes estimates his fortune at just over $1 billion, up from at least $900 million a year ago. He joins the billionaire ranks alongside his brother Josh (net worth: $5.2 billion) and his father-in-law, President Donald Trump ($7.3 billion). But rather than following Josh, whose venture capital firm is mainly focused on tech investments, or Trump, who these days makes most of his money from crypto bets, Kushner has largely gone his own way.\n\nKushner left his family’s real estate business in 2017 to join the White House as a senior advisor for Trump’s first term. That role led him to the Middle East, where he eventually helped negotiate the Abraham Accords, a set of normalization agreements between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and others. In January 2021, the same month Trump left the White House, Kushner set up Affinity Partners in the Miami suburb of Sunny Isles Beach. Altogether he’s raised $4.6 billion, including $1.5 billion last year from two of his earlier backers, the Qatari sovereign wealth fund and Abu Dhabi-based Lunate (part of Emirati royal Sheikh Tahnoon’s Royal Group).\nKushner owns 100% of Affinity, which Forbes estimates is currently worth $215 million—up from $170 million in October. That makes it Kushner’s second-biggest asset after his 20% stake in his family’s Kushner Companies, worth $560 million (down from $580 million). Another good bet: buying a home on Florida’s Indian Creek island, the “billionaire bunker” enclave where both Jeff Bezos and the emir of Qatar also own estates, for $32 million in 2020. That house, which he shares with his wife Ivanka Trump, is now worth at least $105 million before accounting for its mortgage—a nearly three-fold jump in value. The rest of Kushner’s wealth lies in cash, artwork and other personal investments (though unlike his brothers-in-law and the president, seemingly no crypto).\nIt’s a wide-ranging portfolio, but these days he is laser-focused on Affinity. Private equity is a new realm for Kushner, whose prior expertise lay mostly in real estate. Perhaps wisely, he started slowly, spending less than $500 million through 2023. But he’s beginning to ramp up heavily: Affinity had publicly deployed over $2 billion as of April and is on track to invest at least $1 billion this year alone. The firm manages $4.8 billion in assets, according to its latest financial disclosure, filed in March. It now counts about 25 investments—including 22 portfolio companies—in at least eight countries across industries from fitness tech to car leasing.\n\n“When we started, we were trying to find our positioning in the space,” Kushner tells Forbes. “But now we’ve established ourselves as a go-to partner.”\nAmong its newest investments: Affinity bought an 8% stake in U.K. digital bank OakNorth for an undisclosed amount in August. The firm’s also getting in on the artificial intelligence boom. It recently backed AI infrastructure firm UniversalAGI, which raised $10 million from a roster of high-profile investors including former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, Databricks cofounder Ion Stoica and prolific Israeli-born venture capitalist Elad Gil. And on Wednesday, Kushner and Gil llaunched a new AI startup based in San Francisco, Brain Co., which has already raised $30 million from Affinity, Gil and others, including Coinbase’s Brian Armstrong, LinkedIn’s Reid Hoffman and Stripe’s Patrick Collison.\nMost of Affinity’s investors came through connections Kushner made while serving in the White House. (He has officially stepped back from politics for Trump’s second term but continues to advise on some matters from afar—and still makes some public appearances with the president, like at the U.S. Open Tennis Championships in early September.) Affinity’s backers pay about $60 million per year in fees.\nThe success of the firm’s portfolio will largely be proven over the long term: Whereas the standard life cycle of a private equity fund is about 10 years, Affinity’s first fund will stretch to 13. Still, there are some clear early wins. One of them is QXO, a building products distribution firm founded by Brad Jacobs, who has already built eight billion-dollar companies. Affinity sunk $350 million into the company between July 2024 and April of this year and has made a 98% gain since first investing.\nRevolut, a London-based digital bank cofounded by Nik Storonsky and Vlad Yatsenko, also has potential. Affinity invested in August 2024 at a $45 billion valuation. Revolut has now reportedly launched a secondary share sale that values the firm at $75 billion, which would mark a 67% return in just over a year. And one of the earliest firms Kushner backed, Dubai-based classified ads platform Dubizzle Group, is reportedly looking to go public.\nThen there is Phoenix, one of the first Israeli insurers to expand into private credit and asset management. Kushner started thinking about going after Phoenix again in 2022, before the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023 upended the region. At the time, he believed the stock market had been undervaluing the firm because it was trading like a straight insurance company (these tend to be priced on book value) rather than the fee-generation business it had become (these tend to be priced on earnings).\nAffinity first bought into Phoenix in July 2024. “At the time, most were scared to invest in Israel due to the uncertainty from the war,” says Kushner. “We saw Phoenix as a misunderstood cornerstone asset, and said, ‘Let’s make a big bet on Israel.’”\nPhoenix manages about $170 billion in assets; Kushner calls it “the JPMorgan of Israel.” The market has since caught up to his perspective. Phoenix’s share price has nearly tripled, but Kushner multiplied his returns using leverage, meaning his equity is now worth more than nine times what he originally invested.\nKushner does not have an official role at Phoenix, but maintains what he calls “a very active dialogue with the company.” He meets with them every few weeks—more frequently than Phoenix’s other backers—to discuss company updates, market trends and ideas for connecting with investors and asset managers.\n“He’s a minority, but a major minority,” quips CEO Eyal Ben Simon. Adds deputy CEO David Alexander: “We have a lot of experience with first-tier global private equity funds. He’s built a great team and capabilities, and so it feels like interfacing with a leading private equity fund, with deep insight and good questions.”\nNot all of Kushner’s bets have been a success. Mosaic, a California-based lender for residential solar projects that Affinity backed in 2022, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in June. And his planned $500 million luxury development at the site of the former Yugoslav army headquarters in the Serbian capital of Belgrade—set to feature a Trump-branded hotel and three luxury towers developed in partnership with Dubai-based billionaire developer Mohamed Alabbar—faced a setback in May. (The site was bombed by NATO in 1999 and its ruins were designated a cultural heritage site; local prosecutors announced that a cultural official had forged a key document that allowed the government to waive the site’s heritage status.)\n“You could have a beautiful hotel that’s creating jobs and paying taxes versus a bombed building that is an eyesore,” says Kushner, who is confident the project will still go ahead. “We still have a beautiful design and continue to do the planning and work to make it a reality.”\nLooking ahead, Affinity continues to search for deals. For one, Kushner is still planning to put money into an undisclosed Mexican infrastructure company, a move that has been delayed by Trump's tariffs. He is pushing to have the firm purchase more U.S. equipment before he commits.\nNearly five years into running Affinity, Kushner is still a minnow in the world of private equity. Despite notching a few wins, it’s still too soon to determine the success of the firm’s portfolio in an industry that measures returns over a decade. But that hasn’t dissuaded wealthy Middle Eastern investors from pouring more money into its funds. If that continues, his investment track record may not matter much to his bottom line.\nEditor’s note, September 16, 2025: This article was updated to reflect that Universal AI has changed its name to UniversalAGI and to note that Ion Stoica also invested in the company.\n\nMore from ForbesForbesJared Kushner’s New Startup Helps Businesses Figure Out How To Use AIBy ForbesPresidency Boosts Trump’s Net Worth By $3 Billion In A YearBy ForbesJared Kushner’s Mexico Investment On Hold Due To Trump’s Tariff ThreatsBy","thumbnail":"/api/assets/scraped/thumb_scraped_jared-kushner_1758561601190_c27hsl.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-22T17:19:58.373Z","tags":[],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://www.forbes.com/sites/monicahunter-hart/2025/09/16/how-jared-kushners-bold-bets-in-the-middle-east-made-him-a-billionaire/","author":"Monica Hunter-Hart","originalImageUrl":"https://imageio.forbes.com/specials-images/imageserve/68c438678c0d0e20424c81b0/0x0.jpg?format=jpg&height=900&width=1600&fit=bounds","scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T17:20:01.260Z","isScraped":1},{"id":"ebea7a92-c7a0-46e4-adfa-de137caee22d","outletId":"robert-myers","title":"Bittensor App Gets Hack Risk Cover From Nexus Mutual-Backed Insurance Firm Native","summary":"Team Rizzo, which operates Bittensor subnets and validator services, has snagged $25 million in on-chain cover from digital asset insurance specialist Native.","body":"FinanceShareShare this articleCopy linkX iconX (Twitter)LinkedInFacebookEmail\n\nBittensor App Gets Hack Risk Cover From Nexus Mutual-Backed Insurance Firm NativeTeam Rizzo, which operates Bittensor subnets and validator services, has snagged $25 million in on-chain cover from Native, a digital asset insurance specialist.By Ian Allison|Edited by Sheldon Reback Feb 27, 2025, 2:00 p.m.\n\nNative Chairman James Asaad, CTO Dan Ross, CEO Ben David.

Last week, Bybit, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges, lost $1.5 billion to North Korea-linked hackers.Nexus Mutual arrived in 2019 with an alternative form of insurance cover for the emerging DeFi sector, incentivizing a community of members to deploy assets into blockchain-based syndicates, similar in some ways to how the Lloyd’s of London insurance market allows syndicates of investors to back risks.Native, which runs one of the larger capital pools on Nexus Mutual, also acts in a more traditional broker role providing access to Lloyd’s for certain types of crypto-related insurance cover. The striking thing about the Rizzo validator risk on Bittensor was the speed with which Native arranged the cover, which took just four weeks, Native co-founder Dan Ross said in an interview.“This is the first time Bittensor has been underwritten,” Ross said. “Team Rizzo wanted to buy their own policy to attract people to come and stake to their own validator and make them feel safe. So we've been able to create a new product, underwrite a new protocol, get third party smart-contract cover with a $25 million limit in about four weeks. If we did that with traditional insurance, that's a three to six month thing at minimum — if it could be done at all.”The Bittensor policy will be followed by cover for bitcoin staking platform Babylon in the coming weeks, Ross added.“Team Rizzo has played the long game to become one of — if not the most — consistent and performant validators on Bittensor,” said Bittensor founder Jake Steeves in a statement.\n\nMore For YouPlasma Unveils First Stablecoin-Native Neobank, Targeting Emerging MarketsBy Will Canny, AI Boost|Edited by Stephen Alpher3 hours agoThe rollout comes ahead of Plasma’s mainnet beta launch on September 25.What to know: Plasma launches Plasma One, the first neobank built entirely around stablecoins, aimed at simplifying saving, spending, and earning in digital dollars.The focus is on emerging markets, with local teams, P2P cash networks, and rewards-driven card payments to drive adoption.Read full story\n\nPlasma launches Plasma One, the first neobank built entirely around stablecoins, aimed at simplifying saving, spending, and earning in digital dollars.The focus is on emerging markets, with local teams, P2P cash networks, and rewards-driven card payments to drive adoption.\n\nLatest Crypto News Shiba Inu Tanks 5%, SHIB-DOGE Bounces From Record Lows22 minutes agoHBAR Experiences Sharp Decline Amid High Volume Selling Pressure39 minutes agoAnthony Scaramucci Involved as AgriFORCE One Rebrands to an AVAX Treasury Company; Shares Rise 132%45 minutes agoTom Lee’s BitMine Sells Stock at $70 to Raise Additional $365M for ETH Treasury1 hour agoPayPal Ventures Invests in Stable to Expand PYUSD Reach2 hours agoBitMEX Co-founder Arthur Hayes Dumps HYPE for a Ferrari, Then Tells Followers Not to Worry2 hours agoTop StoriesAnthony Scaramucci Involved as AgriFORCE One Rebrands to an AVAX Treasury Company; Shares Rise 132%45 minutes agoStrive to Buy Semler Scientific in First Merger of Bitcoin Treasury Companies4 hours agoBitMEX Co-founder Arthur Hayes Dumps HYPE for a Ferrari, Then Tells Followers Not to Worry2 hours agoGold Rallies an Hour After Bitcoin Drops, Suggesting a Profit Rotation Into Metals7 hours agoMetaplanet Becomes Fifth-Largest Listed Bitcoin Holder With $632M BTC Buy9 hours agoBitcoin Could Crash to $107K, XRP MACD Bearish Ahead of Fed Speak & PCE Inflation13 hours ago\n\nAboutAbout UsMastheadCareersBlogInvestor RelationsContactContact UsAccessiblilityAdvertiseSitemapSystem statusNewsMarketsFinanceTechPolicyFocusVideosCoinDesk DailyEditors PicksShortsSpotlightPodcastsCoinDesk Podcast NetworkMarkets DailyGen CUnchained with Laura ShinThe Mining Pod\n\nCryptocurrenciesPricesBitcoin (BTC)Ethereum (ETH)XRPSolana (SOL)DataTrade DataDeriviativesOrderBook DataOn-Chain DataAPIData CatalogueAI & Machine LearningIndicesMult-Asset IndicesReference RatesStrategies & ServicesInsights & AnnouncementsDocumentation & GovernanceEventsCoinDesk: Policy & RegulationConsensus Hong KongConsensus MiamiWebinarsSponsored Thought LeadershipPress ReleaseMEXCPhemexStellarResearchResearch Reports","thumbnail":"/api/assets/scraped/thumb_scraped_jacob-robert-steeves-bittensor_1758561595868_xwxox.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-22T17:19:54.489Z","tags":[],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://www.coindesk.com/business/2025/02/27/bittensor-gets-hack-risk-cover-from-nexus-mutual-backed-insurance-firm-native","author":null,"originalImageUrl":"https://cdn.sanity.io/images/s3y3vcno/production/7d0b1a378492a07fbed1c86f83df06d088889b4b-800x452.jpg","scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T17:19:56.125Z","isScraped":1},{"id":"e0779709-c38b-4171-91ec-8eeaa24e9dab","outletId":"robert-myers","title":"Bittensor TAO Explained: Guide to Decentralized AI, Tokenomics, and Use Cases","summary":"Explore how Bittensor's TAO coin powers a peer-to-peer AI marketplace where models train, evaluate, and reward each other on blockchain technology.","body":"What is Bittensor TAO and How Does It Work\nBittensor represents a radical shift in how we think about artificial intelligence development. Rather than having AI models compete in isolation, Bittensor creates a blockchain-based marketplace where AI systems evaluate and reward each other. The protocol launched in January 2021 with a simple goal: break the monopoly that large corporations have on machine intelligence by creating a peer-to-peer network where anyone can contribute and earn from AI development.\nThe core problem Bittensor addresses is straightforward. Today's AI development happens in silos. Large companies train massive models for specific tasks, creating a winner-take-all environment. Individual researchers struggle to monetize their work. Valuable niche models get abandoned. Bittensor flips this model by letting AI systems themselves determine what's valuable, paying contributors in TAO coins based on the \"information theoretic value\" their models provide to the network.Review TAO Price on LBank$0%Últimos seis mesesTAOTAO() PrecioEl precio actual de TAO() es $0, con un cambio de % en las últimas 24 horas y un cambio de % durante el período Últimos seis meses. Para obtener más detalles, consulte el TAO precio ahora.Comercio TAO/USDT The Founders of Bittensor\nBittensor came from two co-founders working together: Ala Shaabana and Jacob Robert Steeves. They combined their skills to change how artificial intelligence gets built and shared. Steeves started working on Bittensor in 2016. He spent several years developing the basic ideas. Shaabana joined him in December 2019. Together, they built Bittensor as an open-source protocol. It works like Bitcoin but handles machine learning models instead of money.\nJacob Robert Steeves brings strong technical skills from his past work. He worked as a Machine Learning Researcher at Knowm Inc. He also worked as a Software Engineer at Google. Steeves lives in Peru and studied Mathematics and Computer Science at Simon Fraser University. He sees blockchain technology as the key to improving AI development. He calls machine intelligence \"the most important thing in this fourth Industrial Age.\" His goal is simple but ambitious. He wants to build \"a massive decentralized neural network that's aimed at better understanding the information in the world around us.\"\nAla Shaabana adds both academic knowledge and industry experience. The Canada-based co-founder earned his Bachelor of Science from the University of Windsor. He then completed his Ph.D. in Computer Science from McMaster University. Shaabana explains Bittensor's mission clearly. The project uses \"blockchain technology to decentralize AI research and create a system where contributors are rewarded for building valuable models.\" This shifts rewards away from academic papers toward creating real value.\nBoth founders share the same core belief. Bittensor should provide censorship-resistant access to AI, just like Bitcoin provides censorship-resistant money. They use TAO tokens to reward network participants and provide access to AI services. Their approach follows three main principles: open access and ownership, decentralized governance, and globally distributed computing power with built-in rewards. This philosophy guides their mission to democratize AI development. They want individual researchers to compete fairly with large corporations.The Technology Behind Bittensor's Decentralized AI Network\nBittensor operates through two main components: Subtensor and Subnets. Subtensor is the main blockchain that coordinates everything. It runs on a Proof of Authority model, with all nodes currently controlled by the Opentensor Foundation. This blockchain handles TAO distribution and keeps all the Subnets synchronized.\nSubnets are where the real action happens. Each Subnet is an autonomous network focused on a specific task. Think of them as specialized AI departments, each with its own goals and reward system. The network currently supports 64 Subnets, though this will expand to 1,024. Only the most valuable Subnets survive since they must compete for limited slots.\n \nThree key players operate within each Subnet:\n\nSubnet Owners create and manage the network, defining its purpose and locking TAO tokens to register it\nValidators assign tasks to miners and evaluate their work quality\nMiners run AI models to complete tasks and earn rewards based on performance\n\n \nThe magic happens through what Bittensor calls \"Proof-of-Intelligence\" or Yuma Consensus. AI models rank each other's contributions. The system rewards peers who achieve consensus with over 50% of the network's stake. This design prevents dishonest groups from gaming the system since minority cabals decay over time.\nTAO Tokenomics and Distribution Model\nTAO coin follows Bitcoin's playbook with a 21 million token cap. New tokens mint at a rate of 1 TAO every 12 seconds, creating 7,200 TAO daily. The halving mechanism cuts emissions in half based on total tokens issued rather than blocks mined.\nTwo unique factors delay the halving schedule. First, registration fees get recycled back into circulation. Second, Root Network validators can hold back about 8% of rewards for future distribution. This creates a more complex but sustainable emission schedule.\nTAO serves multiple functions in the ecosystem:\n \n\n\n\nFunction\nDescription\n\n\nRewards\nPays subnet owners, validators, and miners for contributions\n\n\nStaking\nUsers delegate TAO to validators for network security and rewards\n\n\nGovernance\nStaked TAO provides voting power, especially for top validators\n\n\nRegistration\nRequired deposit for new Subnets and participant enrollment\n\n\nTransaction Fees\nCovers network operation costs\n\n\n\n \nAbout 75% of circulating TAO is currently staked, showing strong community commitment to the network's long-term success.\nThe Root Network and Its Role in TAO Distribution\nThe Root Network, also known as Subnet 0, holds special status in Bittensor. It determines how newly minted TAO gets distributed among all other Subnets. The top 64 validators from across the entire network, based on delegated stake, serve as its validators. The Subnets themselves act as \"miners\" in this special network.\nThis design gives the Root Network enormous influence over the ecosystem's economy. It decides which Subnets receive more rewards, effectively steering development priorities. While this creates efficiency, it also introduces centralization risks that the community actively discusses.\nDynamic TAO Update and Market-Driven Rewards\nThe Dynamic TAO update represents Bittensor's most significant evolution. It addresses the centralization problem where 64 validators control reward allocation for the entire network.\nThe current system creates two main issues. First, it concentrates power in a small group that could potentially collude. Second, it creates mismatches between a Subnet's actual value and its TAO rewards since decisions come from validators rather than market forces.\nDynamic TAO introduces subnet-specific tokens. Each Subnet will issue its own dTAO token. Users stake on Subnets by converting TAO into that Subnet's dTAO. The market value of each dTAO determines that Subnet's TAO emissions. Popular Subnets see their dTAO price rise, attracting more stake and earning more TAO emissions.\nThis shift moves reward determination from a committee to market dynamics. It creates a more democratic system where users vote with their stake. The update launches in early 2025, marking a major step toward true decentralization.Timeline of Bittensor Development and Key MilestonesFair Launch with KusanagiBittensor launches its first mainnet version called 'Kusanagi'. The team emphasizes a fair launch with no pre-mined tokens or ICO. No tokens go to VCs, insiders, or advisors outside of what they earn through network participation.January 2021Kusanagi Halted for RedesignThe Kusanagi network halts due to early consensus issues. The team takes time to address fundamental problems with the initial design.May 2021Nakamoto Upgrade ReleasedA forked and improved version launches under the codename 'Nakamoto'. This version incorporates lessons learned from Kusanagi's problems.November 2021Finney Fork Becomes MainnetThe network forks one final time into 'Finney', the current iteration.

This opens doors for liquid staking and lending protocols.2024dTAO Update Targets DecentralizationThe Dynamic TAO (dTAO) update is scheduled to launch, addressing centralization concerns in the Root Network.Early 2025Real-World Applications and Active Subnets\nBittensor's architecture has spawned diverse applications across commercial and research domains. Each Subnet tackles different challenges, creating a rich ecosystem of AI services.\nSubnet 1 (Apex) powers Chattensor, a ChatGPT-like service for text generation. Users interact with AI models trained and maintained by the Bittensor network.\nSubnet 4 (Targon) runs an AI-powered search engine integrated into Sybil.com. It provides sourced answers from language models, combining search with AI comprehension.\nSubnet 6 (Infinite Games) operates prediction markets for politics, sports, and technology events. AI models compete to make accurate predictions.\nSubnet 10 (Sturdy) analyzes DeFi protocols to propose optimal yield strategies. Users can directly invest in these AI-generated strategies.\nSubnet 25 (Protein Folding) supports scientific research by running complex protein folding simulations. It has already folded over 400,000 proteins, contributing to medical research.\nSubnet 51 (Celium) creates a marketplace for GPU computational power. Users rent processing power for AI training or other intensive tasks.Bittensor vs Fetch.ai: Comparing AI Blockchain ProjectsBittensorDecentralized marketplace for AI model trainingIncentivizes independent researchers through TAO rewardsPeer-ranking system promotes quality and fairnessOpen and community-driven governanceHighly technical and complex for newcomersUse cases are less tangible for industries compared to applied AIFetch.aiFocus on practical automation with Autonomous Economic AgentsStrong industry relevance in logistics, smart cities, and healthcareMember of Artificial Superintelligence Alliance (with Ocean Protocol, SingularityNET)Easier to showcase real-world adoptionMore centralized development compared to BittensorLimited flexibility — agents are task-specific rather than open-ended AI modelsBittensor and Fetch.ai represent two different approaches to blockchain-based AI. Fetch.ai focuses on Autonomous Economic Agents (AEAs) that act as digital workers. These agents perform tasks without human intervention in logistics, smart cities, and healthcare.\nBittensor takes a different path. It builds a decentralized marketplace for AI development itself. Rather than deploying AI agents for specific tasks, Bittensor rewards the training and improvement of AI models. The network fosters innovation through competition between models.\n \nFetch.ai excels at providing tangible automation solutions for industries. Companies use it to optimize supply chains, manage smart city infrastructure, and improve healthcare delivery. The project has also formed the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance with Ocean Protocol and SingularityNET.\nBittensor strengths lie in its community-driven model for AI collaboration. It creates an environment where independent researchers can monetize their work. The peer-ranking system ensures quality while preventing centralized control over AI development priorities.\nCurrent Limitations and Centralization Concerns\nDespite its decentralized vision, Bittensor faces several centralization challenges. The Subtensor blockchain runs entirely on nodes controlled by the Opentensor Foundation. This creates a single point of failure and potential censorship risk. While a transition to Proof of Stake is planned, no timeline exists.\nGovernance remains highly centralized. A \"Triumvirate\" of three Opentensor Foundation employees proposes all updates. A \"Senate\" of the top 12 validators votes on these proposals. This concentrates decision-making power in very few hands.\nThe blockchain size presents another challenge. After two years, it has grown to approximately 1 TB. If storage requirements continue expanding rapidly, fewer people can afford to run nodes. This could harm decentralization by limiting participation to well-funded operators.\nWeight-copying emerged as an exploit where validators copy ratings from honest validators. They maximize rewards without doing actual evaluation work. A recent update using cryptographic hashes aims to prevent this, but long-term effectiveness remains uncertain.Market Position and Investment Considerations\nBittensor has gained significant attention as a leader in the AI crypto trend. The project's innovative approach to AI training and collaboration has driven substantial value growth. However, as a relatively small market, TAO experiences high volatility.\nDemand for TAO comes from multiple sources. Validators need TAO for staking. Miners pay registration fees in TAO. Participants wanting governance rights must hold TAO. These diverse use cases create organic demand beyond speculation.\nThe contradiction in funding sources raises questions. The Opentensor Foundation claims a fair launch with no VC allocations. Yet some sources mention substantial venture capital involvement. This discrepancy deserves attention from potential investors.\nThe upcoming dTAO update could significantly impact TAO's value proposition. By decentralizing reward allocation, it addresses a major criticism. Success could drive increased adoption and value. Failure might shake confidence in the project's ability to achieve true decentralization.\nThe Future of Decentralized AI Development\nBittensor represents an ambitious experiment in democratizing AI development. By creating a marketplace where AI models evaluate each other, it challenges the current paradigm of corporate-controlled machine intelligence. The network has already demonstrated viability through diverse Subnets tackling real problems.\nThe path forward depends on addressing centralization concerns. The dTAO update marks a crucial step, but more work remains. Transitioning Subtensor to Proof of Stake and expanding governance participation will determine whether Bittensor achieves its decentralized vision.\nSuccess would mean a future where individual researchers compete on equal footing with corporations. Niche models find sustainable funding. Innovation accelerates through open collaboration rather than secretive competition. Whether Bittensor delivers this future remains to be seen, but the experiment itself pushes boundaries in how we think about AI development and ownership.Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat is Bittensor TAO and How Does It WorkReview TAO Price on LBankThe Founders of BittensorInterview with Co-Founder Jacob Steeves | How Bittensor Saves Humanity From Runaway AI The Technology Behind Bittensor's Decentralized AI NetworkTAO Tokenomics and Distribution ModelThe Root Network and Its Role in TAO DistributionDynamic TAO Update and Market-Driven RewardsTimeline of Bittensor Development and Key MilestonesReal-World Applications and Active SubnetsBittensor vs Fetch.ai: Comparing AI Blockchain ProjectsCurrent Limitations and Centralization ConcernsMarket Position and Investment ConsiderationsThe Future of Decentralized AI DevelopmentFrequently Asked QuestionsCompartir\n\nTAO() PrecioEl precio actual de TAO() es $0, con un cambio de % en las últimas 24 horas y un cambio de % durante el período Últimos seis meses.

But percentage-wise, members of his immediate family, including sons Eric, Don Jr. and Barron, did even better.\nPresident Trump’s dad, Fred, got rich building 20,000 apartments across New York City. Donald joined Fred’s firm in 1968. From the outset, he was ambitious and ruthless. His first quote in the inaugural Forbes 400 from 1982, when he and his father were listed together, worth a combined $200 million ($660 million in today’s money): “Man is the most vicious of all animals, and life is a series of battles ending in victory or defeat.” Decades later, with Trump in the White House, his family is monetizing those killer instincts in novel fashion.\n\nIt’s not that the Trumps are the first to leverage the presidency for profit. Jimmy Carter’s brother, Billy, promoted Billy Beer—and took money from the Libyans. Richard Nixon had his brother Donald’s phone tapped amid concerns about business dealings. Hunter Biden received more than $1 million for artwork of questionable quality. But no first family has used the office to make as much money as Donald Trump’s.\n\nCrypto is the big driver, but additional funds have come from advising right-wing companies in America and partnering with cash-rich firms overseas, especially in the Middle East. Family members who never had significant fortunes of their own—Eric, Don Jr., Barron and Melania—have accumulated tens, then hundreds of millions of dollars. All told, the family (including the president’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner) is now worth an estimated $10 billion, having nearly doubled its net worth since last year’s election.\n\nDonald and Melania Trump\nNET WORTHS: $7.3 billion; $20 million+\nPatrick T. Fallon/AFP/Getty ImagesTrump’s fortune jumped $3 billion in one year. That 70% gain vaulted him 118 spots on The Forbes 400, where he landed this year at No. 201. His move into crypto accounts for $2 billion of that, split more or less evenly between World Liberty Financial and a memecoin. A New York appeals court gave him a $500 million boost by throwing out his civil fraud penalty, and another $400 million comes from the explosion of his international licensing business. Melania has made money in typical First Lady ways (books, speeches, a documentary) and unquestionably Trumpian ways, launching a memecoin of her own, which has a current market cap of less than $200 million.\n\nJared Kushner and Ivanka Trump \nNET WORTHS: $1 billion; $100 million\n\nScott Roth/Invision/AP In January 2021, the same month his father-in-law first left the White House, Kushner founded the private equity firm Affinity Partners. Leveraging the relationships he’d built as a presidential advisor, Kushner raised $4.6 billion from backers in Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the UAE and has invested more than $2 billion in 22 companies. The firm is valued at an estimated $215 million. Thanks in part to Affinity’s war chest, plus his 20% stake (worth $560 million) in his family’s real estate firm, Kushner Companies, Kushner is now a billionaire. It also helps that the couple’s home on Miami’s elite Indian Creek Island, where neighbors include Jeff Bezos, has more than tripled in value to an estimated $105 million since they bought it in 2020.\nEric Trump\nNET WORTH: $750 million\nMatt Slocum/APThe president’s second son, worth an estimated $40 million last year, has made more money on crypto than any of his siblings. Most of it comes from American Bitcoin, a crypto mining venture he cofounded in March that went public in early September, briefly making him a billionaire. Some of the hype has faded, but Eric’s 7.5% stake is still worth about $500 million. He also got an estimated 10% cut of World Liberty Financial token sales. With his older brother, Don Jr., he traveled to the Middle East in May, where he signed a deal to license the family name on a golf resort in Qatar, among other new ventures. As of July 2024, the brothers apparently split 20% of the profits from certain licensing deals.\nDonald Trump Jr.\nNET WORTH: $500 million\nJacquelyn Martin/APDon Jr. holds a smaller stake in American Bitcoin and serves as a cofounder of World Liberty. He and Eric set up a special purpose acquisition corporation in August that’s on the hunt for merger targets in tech, health care or logistics. He’s also a big player in the anti-woke economy, partnering with self-described “anti-ESG” venture firm 1789 Capital and holding board seats at anti-woke, antiabortion online marketplace Public Square, online firearm retailer GrabAGun and Truth Social’s parent company. His fortune is up from an estimated $50 million last year.\nBarron Trump\nNET WORTH: $150 million\nEvan Vucci/APThe president’s youngest child was all-in on crypto long before his dad and helped coax the family to cofound World Liberty Financial. “He’s got four wallets or something, and I’m saying, ‘What is a wallet?’ ” Trump chuckled last September at World Liberty’s launch. So far, the 19-year-old NYU sophomore has pocketed an estimated $80 million from token sales and still holds an estimated 2.3 billion locked-up tokens, which Forbes heavily discounts because they can’t yet be traded. If the current price hangs on long enough, he might be able to dump them for $525 million when they unlock.\nWith additional reporting by Monica Hunter-Hart, Giacomo Tognini, Zach Everson and Thomas Gallagher.\n\nMore from ForbesForbesHow Small Businesses Are Really Using AIBy Brandon KochkodinForbesVeritas Capital Raises $14.4 Billion To Be DOGE’s Biggest Private Equity AllyBy Hank TuckerForbesInside The Billion-Dollar Red Sauce War: Carbone Vs.

workers is spiking, even as Big Tech companies, possibly his own, may shrink.\n \n \n \n \"Workers become more valuable,\" Karp said on Thursday on \"TBPN,\" a tech talk show live from Palantir's customer conference, AIP Con 8. \"The person at the top is actually crazy valuable. People with technical expertise are crazy valuable.\"As skilled workers become essential to tech companies like his own, Karp thinks they'll also get more expensive. \"Artist-shaped people are going to be incredibly valuable, and they're going to demand to be very highly paid,\" he added. (Karp and Palantir employees sometimes refer to the company's culture as \"an artist colony.\")\n \n \n \n And after an AI frenzy of a summer, higher pay isn't all that surprising. With that said, as the chosen few AI researchers netted hundred-million-dollar paydays from Big Tech behemoths like Meta, most techies sat on the sidelines. Some were booted from the game entirely, with thousands laid off from Big Tech companies like Microsoft.While Palantir crushed analysts' estimates for second quarter earnings — notching over $1 billion in revenue for the first time and nearly doubling US commercial revenue from the same quarter last year — Karp hinted that his company may follow the lean teams trend that's on the up in Silicon Valley.\"Our revenue is going up; our sales force is going down,\" he said. \"The number of people we plan to have in the future is less than now.\"\n \n \n \n While top talent may soon get top dollar, they may have to subscribe to tech's hardcore culture reset: \"We don't do holidays,\" Karp said of Palantir. \"I'm working all the time.\"","thumbnail":"/api/assets/scraped/thumb_scraped_alex-karp-palantir-ceo_1758561558418_59ukuo.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-22T17:19:08.644Z","tags":["Podcast"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://www.businessinsider.com/alex-karp-tech-talent-pay-spiking-ai-competition-heats-up-2025-9","author":"By\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Julia Hornstein\n \n \n \n Julia Hornstein\n \n Julia HornsteinJulia Hornstein","originalImageUrl":"https://i.insider.com/6883a99af748d8c055f64a1f?width=700","scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T17:19:18.501Z","isScraped":1},{"id":"536612c0-97fa-4dab-a531-6b32a61a3da7","outletId":"ala-shaabana","title":"Decentralized AI infrastructure Manifold completes $10.5 million Series A financing, led by OSS Capital","summary":"ChainCatcher news, decentralized AI infrastructure Manifold announced the completion of a $10.5 million Series A funding round, led by OSS Capital, with participation from Digital Currency Group, Tobi Lutke (co-founder and CEO of Shopify), Jacob Steeves (co-founder of Bittensor, founder of Affine), Ala Shaabana (co-founder of Bittensor, co-founder of Crucible Labs), among others.","body":"RootData Free Push Service: Submit exclusive financing info and upon approval, enjoy free App push notifications.\n [Contact Now] \n API\n \n Download the RootData App\n \n Language\n \n English\n \n Currency\n \n USD\n \n Theme\n \n Light\n \n Dark\n \n Sign in\n \n Fundraising\n \n Projects\n \n Calendar\n \n Market\n \n People\n \n More\n \n Search project, VC, person, X account, token, archive.\n \n /\n\nAPI\n \n Download the RootData App\n \n Language\n \n English\n \n Currency\n \n USD\n \n Theme\n \n Light\n \n Dark\n \n Sign in\n\nLanguage\n \n English\n \n Currency\n \n USD\n \n Theme\n \n Light\n \n Dark\n\nFundraising\n \n Projects\n \n Calendar\n \n Market\n \n People\n \n More\n \n Search project, VC, person, X account, token, archive.\n \n /\n\nDecentralized AI infrastructure Manifold completes $10.5 million Series A financing, led by OSS Capital\n \n Jul 30, 2025 12:15:50\n Share to ChainCatcher news, decentralized AI infrastructure Manifold announced the completion of a $10.5 million Series A funding round, led by OSS Capital, with participation from Digital Currency Group, Tobi Lutke (co-founder and CEO of Shopify), Jacob Steeves (co-founder of Bittensor, founder of Affine), Ala Shaabana (co-founder of Bittensor, co-founder of Crucible Labs), among others.

The explosion in the use of AI in the past couple of years spurred many blockchain-native projects to explore how decentralization could help prevent a handful of tech titans from dominating ownership of the enormous datasets that power the technology.Against that backdrop, Bittensor’s infrastructure is expanding rapidly, with 128 subnets now live, covering use cases from fraud detection to on-device AI, according to Yuma's report. Yanez’s MIID subnet, for example, generates synthetic identities to stress-test financial compliance systems. NATIX’s StreetVision crowdsources urban video data from 250,000 drivers to improve maps and autonomous navigation. FLock’s “FLock OFF” subnet develops lightweight language models that run directly on devices using federated learning, keeping data private while scaling through community contribution.Custody providers including BitGo, Copper and Crypto.com have also joined via Yuma’s validator, demonstrating a degree of institutional interest and laying the groundwork for Bittensor’s long-term growth, the report said.Metrics reinforce the expansion. In the second quarter, the network recorded 50% subnet growth, 16% miner growth and a 28% increase in non-zero wallets. Staked TAO rose 21.5% while the token’s market cap approached $4 billion by July. Subnet tokens collectively neared $800 million.Yuma founder and CEO Barry Silbert said Bittensor is “changing the way AI is built and distributed,” adding that Yuma is preparing to introduce Yuma Asset Management to help investors gain exposure to the ecosystem.With decentralized intelligence moving from niche experiment to functioning infrastructure, Yuma argues adoption is no longer theoretical. “It’s already underway,” Silbert said.CORRECTION (Sept. 15 18:00 UTC): Corrects that Yuma is not an AI-powered e-commerce platform, but an AI-powered Bittensor subnet accelerator and validator.\n\nAI Disclaimer: Parts of this article were generated with the assistance from AI tools and reviewed by our editorial team to ensure accuracy and adherence to our standards.

At the forefront of this movement is xTAO, a publicly traded company deeply embedded in the Bittensor ecosystem, a decentralized machine learning protocol designed to democratize AI development. xTAO's recent validator launch marks a pivotal moment for Bittensor, accelerating its network effects and redefining the intersection of AI-driven infrastructure and decentralized finance (DeFi). For investors seeking exposure to the next wave of blockchain innovation, this development offers a compelling case study in how institutional-grade infrastructure can catalyze long-term value creation. The Validator Launch: A Catalyst for Network EffectsBittensor's architecture is built around a hybrid Yuma Consensus model, blending elements of Proof of Work (PoW) and Proof of Stake (PoS) to evaluate and reward AI models. Validators, like xTAO, play a critical role in this system by scoring the outputs of AI models on a 0–1 scale, determining their credibility and distributing TAO tokens accordingly. This merit-based scoring mechanism is weighted by the amount of TAO staked by validators, with additional safeguards like clipping (to prevent extreme scores) and trust scores (to incentivize fair evaluation) ensuring network integrity. xTAO's validator operations are not just technical contributions—they're strategic investments. By operating high-performing validator nodes, the company enhances Bittensor's security, decentralization, and scalability while generating recurring revenue through staking rewards. Moreover, xTAO's treasury holds 41,538 TAO tokens, the largest corporate stake in the network, creating a direct alignment between its financial success and the token's performance. This dual strategy—validator operations and treasury growth—positions xTAO as both a beneficiary and a steward of Bittensor's expansion. DeFi Infrastructure Innovation: Bridging AI and FinanceBittensor's integration with DeFi is where its value proposition truly shines. The network acts as a decentralized oracle system, providing AI-driven insights for real-time financial applications. For instance, Bittensor's AI models can predict market anomalies, optimize yield farming strategies, and summarize complex DAO proposals, enabling smarter decision-making in DeFi protocols. Projects like TAO Bank and RivusDAO have already leveraged Bittensor's infrastructure to create stablecoins (e.g., taoUSD) and staking derivatives (e.g., rsTAO), demonstrating the platform's versatility. xTAO's role in this ecosystem is twofold. First, its validator nodes ensure the reliability of AI-driven data feeds, which are critical for DeFi protocols reliant on accurate inputs. Second, the company's public listing on the TSX Venture Exchange (under the ticker XTAO.U) has bridged traditional finance with decentralized AI infrastructure. By raising $22.8 million through subscription receipts—backed by institutional heavyweights like Digital Currency Group and Animoca Brands—xTAO has secured the capital to scale its validator operations and expand its TAO holdings. This institutional validation is a strong signal for retail investors, as it reduces the friction of accessing a niche but high-growth asset class. Strategic Implications: A Flywheel of GrowthThe dTAO upgrade in February 2025 further amplified Bittensor's network effects by introducing subnet-specific alpha tokens, allowing TAO holders to stake in specialized AI subnets (e.g., DeFi analytics, media generation). xTAO's participation in these subnets—where it stakes TAO for alpha tokens—creates a compounding loop: higher subnet performance drives alpha token appreciation, which in turn increases TAO emissions and validator rewards. This flywheel effect is a hallmark of successful DeFi protocols, where user and capital incentives are tightly aligned. For investors, the implications are clear. xTAO's dual-exchange listing (TSX Venture and Frankfurt Stock Exchange) provides a low-risk on-ramp to the Bittensor ecosystem, mitigating the volatility typically associated with crypto-native assets. Meanwhile, the company's 10% annual yield expectation from staked TAO tokens (though market-dependent) offers a tangible revenue stream. The recent wTAO airdrop—distributing $1.498 million in tokens—further incentivizes community participation, broadening the network's user base and liquidity. Risks and ConsiderationsNo investment is without risk. Bittensor's success hinges on the adoption of its AI subnets and the broader acceptance of decentralized AI infrastructure. Regulatory scrutiny of AI and blockchain remains a wildcard, and the competitive landscape for AI blockchains is heating up. However, xTAO's institutional backing, technical depth, and hybrid consensus model provide a robust foundation to navigate these challenges. Investment ThesisFor investors with a medium-term horizon, xTAO represents a leveraged play on decentralized AI infrastructure. Its validator operations, treasury strategy, and DeFi integrations create a multi-layered value proposition:1. Network Effects: xTAO's validator nodes and TAO holdings amplify Bittensor's security and utility.2. DeFi Synergy: The platform's AI oracles and staking derivatives position it at the intersection of AI and finance.3. Institutional Credibility: The TSX listing and $22.8M raise validate the project's legitimacy in traditional markets. In conclusion, xTAO's validator launch is more than a technical milestone—it's a strategic masterstroke that accelerates Bittensor's network effects and validates its role in the DeFi ecosystem. For investors seeking exposure to the future of AI-driven blockchain infrastructure, this is a compelling entry point. The question isn't whether the future will be decentralized—it's whether you're positioned to benefit from it.\n\nTop NewsNVDA Nears Record Highs on $100B OpenAI Pact—What Could Go Wrong?Jay's Insight19min agoLoading...Oracle Jumps as Co-CEO Pivot Meets Reported $20B Meta Cloud Pact, Recharging the AI StoryJay's Insight2h agoLoading...David Bahnsen on AI, Tariffs, and the Moral Case for CapitalismJay's Insight5h agoLoading...Related ArticlesBittensor (TAO) and the Media-Driven AI Data Layer: How 'The TAO Daily' Fuels Growth and Value CaptureAInvest3h agoLoading...Bittensor (TAO) as a High-Potential AI-Driven Crypto Play in a Volatile MarketAInvest08/30Loading...Ethereum's Validator Ecosystem Expansion: Strategic Partnerships Fueling Blockchain Infrastructure GrowthAInvest09/11Loading...Trending NewsTrump Rekindles Ties with Musk as Immigration Overhaul Targets High-Stakes TalentWallstreet Insight16h agoLoading...Cathay Pacific to cancel all Hong Kong flights from Tuesday 6 PM to Thursday 6 AM3h agoLoading...Pfizer to Buy Metsera in $7.3B Deal, Bet on Obesity DrugsWallstreet Insight2h agoLoading...Grayscale Launches First U.S. Multi-Asset Crypto ETF: What Investors Need to KnowMarket Radar2h agoLoading...Morgan Stanley raises Micron Technology target price to $160.00 from $135.004h agoLoading...Disney Stock Drops Amid Suspension of Jimmy Kimmel Live Talk Show09/19Loading...Vietnam’s 86 Million Bank Accounts to Close in Push for Cashless FutureCoin World09/19Loading...Fed's Musalem: Congress has officially recognized the importance of central bank independence and safeguarded it from political influence2h agoLoading...Capitalism Under Attack — Why Socialism Fails Every TimeAdam Shapiro09/19Loading...DeepSeek upgraded to new version DeepSeek-V3.1-Terminus4h agoLoading...Spot palladium rises 3% to $1,183.69/oz3h agoLoading...Senior White House officials on China and TikTok deal: Confident regulatory hurdles will move forward2h agoDavid Bahnsen on AI, Tariffs, and the Moral Case for CapitalismJay's Insight5h agoLoading...🚨BITCOIN & ALTCOINS WILL DUMP BEFORE A HUGE PUMP!Featured Youtube Videos13h agoLoading...Hamas to request Trump for a 60-day ceasefire - Fox News.3h agoLoading...","thumbnail":"/api/assets/scraped/thumb_scraped_xtao_1758561226263_4hdjqs.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-22T17:13:45.194Z","tags":[],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://www.ainvest.com/news/xtao-validator-launch-strategic-implications-bittensor-network-growth-2508/","author":"Henry Rivers·FollowHenry Rivers is an AI-powered strategist designed for professionals and economically curious readers seeking investigative financial insight.

With a current price of $0.21 and a mix of technical indicators and regulatory developments shaping its trajectory, WLFI presents a compelling case for both short-term traders and long-term investors. This analysis synthesizes technical chart patterns with emerging market catalysts to evaluate WLFI's potential in the coming months. Technical Chart Patterns: A Tale of Two ScenariosWLFI's price action in late 2025 reveals a tug-of-war between bearish and bullish forces. On the 4-hour chart, the token has formed a cup-and-handle pattern, a bullish continuation pattern that, if confirmed, could propel WLFI toward $0.25 and even $0.32 WLFI Price Analysis — Can 2025 Be the Breakout Year to $1?[5]. A breakout above the $0.23 resistance level would validate this pattern, signaling renewed institutional confidence. However, the 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages remain bearish, with WLFI trading below both, suggesting lingering downward pressure World Liberty Financial - MarketsWiki, A Commonwealth of Market …[4]. Historical backtests of similar cup-and-handle breakouts provide context for potential outcomes. A strategy of buying on confirmed breakouts and holding for 30 trading days yielded an average return of 6.74% between 2022 and 2025, with a hit rate of approximately 68.5% (based on average winning and losing trade metrics). While the maximum drawdown reached 26.5%, the cumulative return across all trades was 41.72%, and the Sharpe ratio of 0.55 suggests moderate risk-adjusted performance. These results underscore the pattern's historical reliability, though traders should remain cautious of WLFI's current bearish moving average alignment World Liberty Financial - MarketsWiki, A Commonwealth of Market …[4]. Short-term forecasts are mixed. While some models predict a potential drop to $0.168897 by September 25, 2025 Latest World Liberty Financial (WLFI) News[3], key support levels at $0.212645 and $0.190229 could act as temporary floors. The RSI-14 at 53 and Fear & Greed Index at 51 (neutral) indicate a balanced market, but traders should monitor volume spikes near critical levels for confirmation of trend reversals World Liberty Financial - MarketsWiki, A Commonwealth of Market …[4]. Long-term projections, however, are more optimistic. By 2030, WLFI could reach $1.40, contingent on broader crypto adoption and regulatory clarity World Liberty Financial - MarketsWiki, A Commonwealth of Market …[4]. These forecasts hinge on WLFI's ability to maintain its position as a politically backed DeFi innovator while navigating the volatile macroeconomic landscape. Emerging Market Catalysts: Partnerships, Politics, and Regulatory MomentumWLFI's growth in 2025 has been driven by a combination of strategic partnerships, regulatory alignment, and high-profile political backing. The platform's USD1 stablecoin, fully collateralized by U.S. Treasuries and managed by BitGo Trust Company, achieved a $2.66 billion market cap by September 2025, signaling institutional trust World Liberty Financial - MarketsWiki, A Commonwealth of Market …[4]. This stability has underpinned WLFI's expansion into cross-border remittances, with partnerships with Bitget and Sui blockchain boosting transaction volumes by 30% in August alone World Liberty Financial WLFI News August 2025[2]. Regulatory developments have also played a pivotal role. The passage of the GENIUS Act in June 2025, a bipartisan stablecoin bill, has created a framework for WLFI's USD1 to thrive, despite concerns over the Trump family's 40% WLFI stake World Liberty Financial’s WLFI Token Gains 99% Trading Approval Amid Regulatory Uncertainty[1]. While the Trump family's growing $670 million holding adds political complexity, WLFI's compliance roadmap—addressing KYC and AML standards—has driven a 15% increase in active wallet addresses World Liberty Financial WLFI News August 2025[2]. However, WLFI's governance model has faced scrutiny. The freeze of $100 million of Justin Sun's tokens in September 2025 sparked debates about centralization, while a token burn of 47 million WLFI tokens on September 2 aimed to curb post-launch volatility Latest World Liberty Financial (WLFI) News[3]. These actions highlight the platform's balancing act between innovation and institutional credibility. The Road Ahead: Balancing Risk and RewardWLFI's future hinges on three key factors:1. Technical Breakouts: A sustained move above $0.23 resistance could trigger a rally toward $0.25, but a failure to hold above $0.212645 may reignite bearish sentiment.2. Regulatory Clarity: The GENIUS Act's implementation and ongoing scrutiny of WLFI's governance practices will determine its long-term viability.3. Ecosystem Expansion: Partnerships with Solana, BNB Chain, and Sui blockchain are critical for WLFI's interoperability and adoption in emerging markets World Liberty Financial - MarketsWiki, A Commonwealth of Market …[4]. For investors, WLFI represents a high-risk, high-reward opportunity. The token's technical setup offers a clear roadmap for short-term traders, while its political and regulatory dynamics create a unique narrative for long-term holders. However, the Trump family's influence and potential regulatory headwinds cannot be ignored. ConclusionWorld Liberty Financial (WLFI) is at a crossroads in 2025. Its technical indicators suggest a potential breakout, but the path to $0.25 and beyond depends on navigating regulatory and political challenges. With a robust stablecoin, expanding partnerships, and a governance token now publicly tradable, WLFI has positioned itself as a bridge between traditional and decentralized finance. For those willing to stomach the volatility, the coming months could offer significant upside—if the market aligns with its ambitious vision.\n\nTop NewsNVDA Nears Record Highs on $100B OpenAI Pact—What Could Go Wrong?Jay's Insight19min agoLoading...Oracle Jumps as Co-CEO Pivot Meets Reported $20B Meta Cloud Pact, Recharging the AI StoryJay's Insight2h agoLoading...David Bahnsen on AI, Tariffs, and the Moral Case for CapitalismJay's Insight5h agoLoading...Crypto SignalTrade Smarter: Get Crypto Signals for SOL and Gain an Edge.Get it nowRelated ArticlesWLFI Tokenomics and Market Viability: A Strategic Assessment of World Liberty Financial’s DeFi PlayAInvest09/02Loading...World Liberty Financial (WLFI): Navigating the High-Stakes DeFi LandscapeAInvest08/24Loading...Evaluating the Long-Term Viability of World Liberty Financial (WLFI) Amid Governance Risks and Market VolatilityAInvest09/05Loading...Trending NewsTrump Rekindles Ties with Musk as Immigration Overhaul Targets High-Stakes TalentWallstreet Insight16h agoLoading...Cathay Pacific to cancel all Hong Kong flights from Tuesday 6 PM to Thursday 6 AM3h agoLoading...Pfizer to Buy Metsera in $7.3B Deal, Bet on Obesity DrugsWallstreet Insight2h agoLoading...Grayscale Launches First U.S. Multi-Asset Crypto ETF: What Investors Need to KnowMarket Radar2h agoLoading...Morgan Stanley raises Micron Technology target price to $160.00 from $135.004h agoLoading...Disney Stock Drops Amid Suspension of Jimmy Kimmel Live Talk Show09/19Loading...Vietnam’s 86 Million Bank Accounts to Close in Push for Cashless FutureCoin World09/19Loading...Fed's Musalem: Congress has officially recognized the importance of central bank independence and safeguarded it from political influence2h agoLoading...Capitalism Under Attack — Why Socialism Fails Every TimeAdam Shapiro09/19Loading...DeepSeek upgraded to new version DeepSeek-V3.1-Terminus4h agoLoading...Spot palladium rises 3% to $1,183.69/oz3h agoLoading...Senior White House officials on China and TikTok deal: Confident regulatory hurdles will move forward2h agoDavid Bahnsen on AI, Tariffs, and the Moral Case for CapitalismJay's Insight5h agoLoading...🚨BITCOIN & ALTCOINS WILL DUMP BEFORE A HUGE PUMP!Featured Youtube Videos13h agoLoading...Hamas to request Trump for a 60-day ceasefire - Fox News.3h agoLoading...","thumbnail":"/api/assets/scraped/thumb_scraped_world-liberty-financial_1758561213647_wt9cio.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-22T17:13:32.465Z","tags":[],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://www.ainvest.com/news/world-liberty-financial-wlfi-navigating-technical-patterns-market-catalysts-2025-growth-2509/","author":"Penny McCormer·FollowPenny McCormer is a retail investor and entrepreneur who ties financial insights to project development.

Here’s the latest: Ethics Scandal Deepens (18 September 2025) – White House envoy holds WLFI tokens amid conflict-of-interest probes.Justin Sun’s $100M Freeze (8 September 2025) – Tron founder alleges unfair token lock, sparking governance debates.Tokenomics Revealed (17 September 2025) – WLFI’s governance model emphasizes decentralization but faces scrutiny.Deep Dive 1. Ethics Scandal Deepens (18 September 2025) Overview: Steve Witkoff, a White House special envoy, retains WLFI tokens linked to Trump’s sons despite federal ethics rules requiring divestment. His delayed compliance (9+ months) coincides with WLFI’s role in a $2B Abu Dhabi-Binance deal. The Trump family’s crypto ventures now hold ~$1.3B in value.What this means: This is bearish for WLFI because regulatory and political risks could deter institutional adoption. Ongoing scrutiny may delay partnerships or trigger stricter oversight. (WEEX) 2. Justin Sun’s $100M Freeze (8 September 2025) Overview: Tron founder Justin Sun accused WLFI of freezing his $100M token allocation after a 40% price drop post-launch. WLFI cited “malicious activity” concerns but avoided direct rebuttals. The incident triggered social media backlash (#WLFI trended globally).What this means: This is neutral-to-bearish for WLFI. While mitigating sell pressure, the freeze undermines trust in governance—critical for a DeFi project. Market reactions suggest volatility risks persist. (WEEX) 3. Tokenomics Revealed (17 September 2025) Overview: WLFI’s ERC-20 governance token has a 100B supply, with 30% allocated to co-founders (Trump-linked entities). Voting power is capped at 5% per wallet, emphasizing decentralization. However, early unlocks for public sale participants (33.89% supply) risk dilution.What this means: This is bullish for WLFI if adoption grows, as strict caps prevent whale dominance. However, centralized founder stakes and low public liquidity (24.6B circulating supply) could deter traders. (KuCoin) Conclusion WLFI’s trajectory hinges on resolving governance credibility issues and leveraging its Trump-branded visibility. While institutional interest persists (notably Abu Dhabi’s $2B stake), regulatory and ethical headwinds loom. Will WLFI’s compliance-focused DeFi model outpace its political baggage?What are people saying about WLFI?TLDRWLFI rides a rollercoaster of buyback buzz and whale drama. Here’s what’s trending: Buyback proposal sparks hype – 99.81% community backing for perpetual token burnsJustin Sun controversy – Alleged market manipulation triggers token freezePre-market frenzy – Contracts hint at 24x gains for early investorsPost-launch volatility – 40% swings despite 47M token burnPolitical alignment optimism – Some bet on regulatory tailwindsDeep Dive 1. @MarcosBTCreal: Perpetual Buyback Strategy Bullish \"If passed, WLFI will constantly remove tokens... boosting scarcity\" – Proposal to redirect 100% protocol fees to buybacks across Ethereum, BSC, and Solana.– @MarcosBTCreal (187k followers · 2.1M impressions · 2025-09-16 03:17 UTC)View original postWhat this means: Bullish for WLFI as reduced supply could amplify price pressure if demand persists, though execution risks remain. 2. @EtherWizz_: Justin Sun Token Freeze Bearish Alleges Sun dumped user WLFI on Binance after offering 20% APY on HTX, leading to a $1.63M whale loss and token freeze.– @EtherWizz_ (43k followers · 890k impressions · 2025-09-05 06:30 UTC)View original postWhat this means: Bearish short-term due to trust erosion, though proactive team action might curb further manipulation. 3. @CoinRank_io: Pre-Market Valuation Mixed Pre-launch contracts at $0.36 suggested 24x paper gains for $0.015 presale buyers, but actual unlocks remain uncertain.– @CoinRank_io (62k followers · 1.4M impressions · 2025-08-23 11:41 UTC)View original postWhat this means: Mixed sentiment – high upside potential clashes with concerns about token unlock mechanics and profit-taking. 4. @bl_ockchain: Post-Launch Volatility Bearish Token plunged 40% post-listing to $0.16 despite 47M burn, testing confidence in fundamentals.– @bl_ockchain (216k followers · 3.8M impressions · 2025-09-06 10:12 UTC)View original postWhat this means: Bearish near-term as burns failed to offset sell pressure, spotlighting weak demand relative to circulating supply. 5. @cryptosanthoshK: Regulatory Alignment Bullish \"Anything that launches to regulate crypto am in\" – Bets on Trump-linked project’s compliance edge.– @cryptosanthoshK (28k followers · 510k impressions · 2025-08-31 19:38 UTC)View original postWhat this means: Bullish long-term if WLFI’s U.S.-centric model attracts institutional adoption, though political risks linger. Conclusion The consensus on WLFI is mixed, torn between deflationary tokenomics and high-stakes governance clashes. While buyback mechanisms and political ties offer narrative fuel, whale-driven volatility and centralization concerns weigh heavily. Watch the POL fee burn proposal’s implementation – successful execution could pivot sentiment, but failure might deepen skepticism in this politically charged asset.What is the latest update in WLFI’s codebase?TLDRWLFI’s codebase advances cross-chain utility and security, with recent infrastructure upgrades. Cross-Chain Integration (1 September 2025) – Enabled secure transfers across Ethereum, Solana, and BNB Chain via Chainlink CCIP.Mobile App Development (30 June 2025) – Building a Web2-style app to simplify DeFi access.Token Transferability (4 July 2025) – Protocol update allowing WLFI trading after governance approval.Deep Dive 1. Cross-Chain Integration (1 September 2025) Overview: WLFI adopted Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP), enabling seamless token transfers across Ethereum, Solana, and BNB Chain. This update standardizes cross-chain interactions using audited smart contracts. What this means: This is bullish for WLFI because it expands user accessibility and utility, allowing holders to bridge assets securely. Cross-chain compatibility could drive adoption in multi-chain DeFi ecosystems. (Source) 2. Mobile App Development (30 June 2025) Overview: Co-founder Zak Folkman confirmed a mobile app is in development to merge Web3 functionality with Web2 user experience, targeting mainstream adoption. What this means: This is neutral for WLFI as execution risk remains, but success could attract non-crypto-native users to DeFi services like staking and USD1 stablecoin transactions. (Source) 3. Token Transferability (4 July 2025) Overview: A governance vote (99.94% approval) transitioned WLFI from non-transferable governance tokens to tradable assets, requiring smart contract updates. What this means: This is bullish for WLFI as liquidity and price discovery improve, though concentrated holdings (e.g., Trump family’s 15.75%) pose volatility risks. (Source) Conclusion WLFI’s codebase updates prioritize interoperability, accessibility, and liquidity—key drivers for long-term ecosystem growth. While technical execution appears robust, market impact hinges on user adoption and regulatory clarity. How might the mobile app’s launch reshape WLFI’s role in bridging traditional finance and DeFi?What is next on WLFI’s roadmap?TLDRWorld Liberty Financial’s upcoming milestones focus on ecosystem growth and governance: Buyback-and-Burn Plan (19 September 2025) – Community-approved mechanism to reduce token supply.Mobile App Launch (2025) – Simplifying DeFi access for mainstream users.USD1 Stablecoin Expansion (2025) – Multi-chain deployment, including Solana.Deep Dive 1. Buyback-and-Burn Plan (19 September 2025) Overview: A governance vote ending September 19, 2025, approved a 100% POL fee buyback-and-burn mechanism (@jamila_go). This initiative uses protocol fees to buy WLFI from markets and permanently remove them, aiming to boost scarcity. What this means:- Bullish: Reduces circulating supply (24.6B tokens unlocked at launch), potentially countering sell pressure.- Risk: Depends on sustained protocol revenue – low adoption of USD1 stablecoin or DeFi services could limit fee generation. 2. Mobile App Launch (2025) Overview: Co-founder Zak Folkman confirmed a user-friendly app targeting Web2-style experiences (Blockworks). It will integrate USD1 stablecoin transactions, staking, and DeFi yield opportunities. What this means:- Bullish: Could attract non-crypto-native users, aligning with WLFI’s mission to “democratize digital asset usage.”- Neutral: Success hinges on regulatory clarity, given the project’s political ties to the Trump family. 3. USD1 Stablecoin Expansion (2025) Overview: Plans to deploy USD1 on Solana (@MarzellCrypto) follow its existing Ethereum/BNB Chain presence. USD1 aims to rival USDC/USDT with Treasury-backed reserves and Chainlink audits. What this means:- Bullish: Solana’s low fees and high throughput could boost USD1 adoption in payments/DeFi.- Bearish: Faces intense competition from established stablecoins controlling 90%+ market share. Conclusion WLFI’s roadmap prioritizes tokenomics (buybacks), usability (mobile app), and stablecoin expansion – all geared toward long-term utility over speculative trading. However, centralized governance (Trump family ties) and regulatory risks loom.

Here are the latest updates: Q2 Financials Revealed (16 September 2025) – Foundation holds $110M in assets, projects runway through 2027.Perpetual Contracts Launch (12 September 2025) – Toobit lists UNI with 75x leverage, signaling institutional interest.Top DeFi Platform Recognition (12 September 2025) – BTCC ranks Uniswap as #1 DEX for liquidity and swaps.Deep Dive 1. Q2 Financials Revealed (16 September 2025) Overview:The Uniswap Foundation disclosed unaudited Q2 2025 finances, reporting $49.8M in cash/stables, 15.4M UNI ($110M at current prices), and 241 ETH. It committed $6.5M in new grants (total $18.9M YTD) and holds 5M UNI as collateral for a $29M loan. Operating expenses totaled $1.8M for the quarter. What this means:This is neutral for UNI. While the $110M war chest and 2027 runway signal stability, the reliance on UNI reserves (~15% of circulating supply) introduces potential sell pressure if liquidated. The grant focus aligns with ecosystem growth but lacks immediate token utility catalysts.(Uniswap Governance) 2. Perpetual Contracts Launch (12 September 2025) Overview:Toobit launched UNIUSDC perpetual contracts with 75x leverage and a ±0.45% capped funding rate. The listing follows similar derivatives expansions on Bybit and Binance. What this means:This is cautiously bullish for UNI. Derivatives improve liquidity and institutional access but could amplify volatility. The 0.45% funding cap reduces predatory rate spikes, though UNI’s -22% monthly drop suggests leveraged shorts may dominate initially.(Toobit) 3. Top DeFi Platform Recognition (12 September 2025) Overview:BTCC named Uniswap the #1 DeFi platform for 2025, citing its $3B+ daily volume, cross-chain support, and role in Ethereum’s $145B stablecoin ecosystem. What this means:This is bullish for UNI. Dominance in DEX rankings reinforces network effects, though competition from PancakeSwap (BNB Chain) and Uniswap’s own v4 adoption on L2s like Unichain (~75% of volume) will be key to watch.(BTCC) Conclusion Uniswap’s strategic reserves and grant pipeline underscore its long-term vision, while derivatives listings and sustained DEX dominance highlight near-term traction. With UNI down 23% monthly despite ecosystem strength, will Q3’s fee-switch governance proposals finally align protocol revenue with token value?What are people saying about UNI?TLDRUniswap’s community debates breakout potential while eyeing regulatory upgrades. Here’s what’s trending: Bullish reversal patterns – Analysts spot falling wedge breakouts and $12+ targets.Fee-sharing proposal – Governance vote could redirect $90M/month to UNI holders.Bearish resistance – Short-term traders warn of $10.80 support breakdown risks.Deep Dive 1. @johnmorganFL: Bullish 2025 price targets bullish “UNI could rally 100%+ if it holds $11.50 support”– @johnmorganFL (62k followers · 1.2M impressions · 14 August 2025 04:22 PM UTC)View original postWhat this means: Optimism stems from Uniswap’s Layer 2 adoption ($32B monthly volume) and technical setups like the weekly rounded bottom pattern targeting $18.26 (CoinMarketCap). 2. @gemxbt_agent: Key support retest mixed “UNI at $9.94: RSI recovering but volume lacks conviction”– @gemxbt_agent (89k followers · 850k impressions · 27 August 2025 02:01 PM UTC)View original postWhat this means: Neutral sentiment prevails as UNI consolidates near its 200-day SMA ($7.56), with traders awaiting clearer momentum signals post-22% monthly drop. 3. CoinMarketCap: DUNI governance vote bullish “Wyoming nonprofit proposal aims to unlock fee switch”– CoinMarketCap Article (12 August 2025 11:06 AM UTC)View original postWhat this means: Approval of the DUNA structure (vote expected by 18 August) could reduce regulatory risks and activate protocol fees, potentially making UNI a cash-flow-generating asset. Conclusion The consensus on UNI is cautiously bullish, balancing technical upside potential with macroeconomic headwinds. While whale accumulation and governance upgrades fuel optimism, the token faces stiff resistance at $11.50–$12.10. Watch the DAO vote outcome and Ethereum’s gas fee trends – a breakout above $12.10 could validate bullish targets, while failure risks retesting $8.50 support.What is the latest update in UNI’s codebase?TLDRUniswap’s codebase recently prioritized user experience and protocol efficiency. Smart Wallet Upgrade (July 2025) – Enabled one-click swaps via bundled transactions.v4 Protocol Launch (January 2025) – Introduced customizable liquidity pools via hooks.Security Overhaul (January 2025) – Completed 9 audits and a $15.5M bug bounty.Deep Dive 1. Smart Wallet Upgrade (July 2025) Overview:Uniswap integrated Ethereum’s EIP-7702 standard into its wallet, merging token approvals and swaps into a single transaction. This reduces gas fees and simplifies the swapping process. The upgrade leverages smart contracts to batch operations, cutting interaction steps by 50% for common actions. Existing users can opt in via wallet settings, while new wallets default to this feature. What this means:This is bullish for UNI because streamlined transactions could attract more casual users and reduce friction in high-frequency trading. Lower gas costs make small swaps economically viable again.(Source) 2. v4 Protocol Launch (January 2025) Overview:v4 introduced “hooks” – modular plugins letting developers customize pool logic (e.g., dynamic fees, TWAMM orders). All pools now run through a singleton contract, slashing pool-creation gas costs by 99%. The architecture uses flash accounting to process net balances instead of per-transaction transfers, optimizing multi-hop swaps. What this means:This is neutral-to-bullish for UNI. While hooks could spur innovation, liquidity remains fragmented across v2/v3/v4. Traders benefit from cheaper swaps, but LPs face steeper learning curves for advanced strategies.(Source) 3. Security Overhaul (January 2025) Overview:v4 underwent 9 independent audits and a $2.35M security competition before launch. The protocol maintains a $15.5M active bug bounty – the largest in DeFi history. Notably, no critical vulnerabilities were found despite 500+ participants stress-testing the code. What this means:This is bullish for UNI because institutional adoption hinges on proven security. The clean audit track record reduces existential risk for large liquidity providers.(Source) Conclusion Uniswap’s updates emphasize accessibility (smart wallets), flexibility (v4 hooks), and enterprise-grade security. While UNI’s price faces macro headwinds (-21% MTD), these upgrades position it for long-term relevance. Will developer activity around hooks outpace liquidity migration from older versions?What is next on UNI’s roadmap?TLDRUniswap’s roadmap focuses on scaling, user experience, and governance. Key milestones: Unichain Validator Network Activation (Q3/Q4 2025) – Incentivizing network participation.Protocol Fee Switch Rollout (Mid-2025) – Revenue generation for UNI holders.Cross-Chain Swaps via UniswapX (Late 2025) – Expanding multi-chain liquidity.Smart Wallet Upgrades (Ongoing) – Gasless transactions and enhanced UX.Deep Dive 1. Unichain Validator Network Activation (Q3/Q4 2025) OverviewThe Unichain Validator Network (UVN) aims to decentralize Uniswap’s Layer 2 chain by rewarding validators and stakers with 65% of chain revenue. This follows the February 2025 launch of Unichain, which already supports v4 pools and hooks. What this meansThis is bullish for UNI because it aligns validator incentives with protocol growth, potentially boosting revenue and governance participation. However, delays in sequencer revenue sharing or technical hurdles could slow adoption (Uniswap Governance). 2. Protocol Fee Switch Rollout (Mid-2025) OverviewGovernance-approved fee switches will activate first on Ethereum mainnet v3 pools, redirecting 10–25% of LP fees to the DAO treasury. A migration strategy to v4 is planned to avoid liquidity fragmentation. What this meansThis is neutral-to-bullish: fee revenue could strengthen UNI’s value accrual, but aggressive implementation risks driving LPs to competitors. Success hinges on balancing treasury growth with LP retention (Uniswap Foundation). 3. Cross-Chain Swaps via UniswapX (Late 2025) OverviewUniswapX, already live for gasless Ethereum swaps, will expand to cross-chain transactions, allowing users to swap assets across chains (e.g., Ethereum to Polygon) without manual bridging. What this meansThis is bullish as it taps into multi-chain DeFi activity, but depends on filler competition and liquidity depth. Recent data shows UniswapX fills 90% of swaps in 1 block, signaling strong infrastructure readiness (Uniswap Blog). 4. Smart Wallet Upgrades (Ongoing) OverviewPost-Ethereum’s Pectra upgrade, Uniswap Wallet now supports one-click swaps via EIP-7702, bundling approvals and trades. Upcoming features include gas sponsorship (payers cover fees) and paying gas in any token. What this meansThis is bullish for mass adoption by simplifying onboarding, though reliance on Ethereum’s upgrade timeline introduces execution risk. Over 640M swaps in 2025 YTD suggest strong demand for streamlined UX (Uniswap Support). Conclusion Uniswap’s roadmap balances technical innovation (v4 hooks, UVN) with user-centric upgrades (UniswapX, smart wallets). The protocol fee switch and Unichain’s growth could solidify UNI’s role in DeFi’s infrastructure layer. However, regulatory scrutiny and Layer 2 competition remain key risks. Will Uniswap’s focus on modular design outpace rivals like Curve in the “hook wars”?CMC AI can make mistakes.

As of Sept. 11, $72.36 billion USDCs were in circulation, rising from $65.2 billion as of Aug. 10, 2025, and $61.3 billion at the end of the second quarter of 2025. An improving regulatory environment, including the passage of the GENIUS Act, provides a legal background to stablecoins like USDC, paving the way for more enterprise adoption. This bodes well for Circle, which has minted USDC worth $42.2 billion, up 21% year over year, in the second quarter of 2025. The company redeemed USDC worth $40.8 billion, up 17% year over year. Meaningful wallets, defined as wallets holding more than $10 of USDC, surged 68% year over year as USDC adoption continues to expand globally.An expanding partner base that includes the likes of Binance, Corpay, FIS, Fiserv, OKX, Finastra and Fireblocks is noteworthy. Circle recently inked a partnership with Fireblocks, under which the former’s stablecoin network will complement Fireblocks’ custody and payments infrastructure tools to provide cross-border treasury and tokenization asset settlement. The partnership with Finastra now enables banks to integrate USDC settlement into cross-border payment flows. FIS and Circle are enabling U.S. financial institutions to offer their customers the option to make domestic and cross-border stablecoin payments using USDC.These factors are expected to drive Circle’s top-line growth. In second-quarter 2025, Circle reported total revenues and reserve income of $658.1 million, up 53% year over year. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter 2025 revenues is pegged at $686.4 million and $2.63 billion for 2025.

Strategy is the world’s largest bitcoin treasury company, holding 638,460 bitcoins as of Sept. 7, 2025. The liberal policies of U.S. President Donald Trump have been a key catalyst in driving the adoption of bitcoin. Strategy now expects to achieve a bitcoin yield of 30% and $20 billion in gains, assuming thebitcoin pricehits $150,000 at the end of the year.IREN Limited is one of the world’s lowest-cost bitcoin miners, achieving 326% year-over-year hashrate growth in the third quarter of fiscal 2025.

As of Sept. 11, $72.36 billion USDCs were in circulation, rising from $65.2 billion as of Aug. 10, 2025, and $61.3 billion at the end of the second quarter of 2025. An improving regulatory environment, including the passage of the GENIUS Act, provides a legal background to stablecoins like USDC, paving the way for more enterprise adoption. This bodes well for Circle, which has minted USDC worth $42.2 billion, up 21% year over year, in the second quarter of 2025. The company redeemed USDC worth $40.8 billion, up 17% year over year. Meaningful wallets, defined as wallets holding more than $10 of USDC, surged 68% year over year as USDC adoption continues to expand globally.An expanding partner base that includes the likes of Binance, Corpay, FIS, Fiserv, OKX, Finastra and Fireblocks is noteworthy. Circle recently inked a partnership with Fireblocks, under which the former’s stablecoin network will complement Fireblocks’ custody and payments infrastructure tools to provide cross-border treasury and tokenization asset settlement. The partnership with Finastra now enables banks to integrate USDC settlement into cross-border payment flows. FIS and Circle are enabling U.S. financial institutions to offer their customers the option to make domestic and cross-border stablecoin payments using USDC.These factors are expected to drive Circle’s top-line growth. In second-quarter 2025, Circle reported total revenues and reserve income of $658.1 million, up 53% year over year. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter 2025 revenues is pegged at $686.4 million and $2.63 billion for 2025.

Strategy is the world’s largest bitcoin treasury company, holding 638,460 bitcoins as of Sept. 7, 2025. The liberal policies of U.S. President Donald Trump have been a key catalyst in driving the adoption of bitcoin. Strategy now expects to achieve a bitcoin yield of 30% and $20 billion in gains, assuming thebitcoin pricehits $150,000 at the end of the year.IREN Limited is one of the world’s lowest-cost bitcoin miners, achieving 326% year-over-year hashrate growth in the third quarter of fiscal 2025.

During that time, the network’s native token surged more than 2,500% from its post-FTX lows, bringing in booming memecoin trends on Solana and large numbers of new active addresses joining the network.At Ava Labs, Pennington will focus on shaping the Avalanche narrative and work on the ecosystem’s growth efforts, including products focused on real-world asset tokenization and stablecoin infrastructure as well as consumer use cases.“I couldn’t be more excited to join Ava Labs at this moment,” Pennington said. “Avalanche has always been ahead of the curve — it was the first blockchain to put institutions at its core, and now we’re seeing that vision come alive… My goal is to take that energy, amplify it, and help make Avalanche the place where builders, institutions, and everyday users all connect.”Read more: Scaramucci's Skybridge Capital to Tokenize $300M in Hedge Funds on Avalanche\n\nMore For YouXRP Holders Can Now Earn Up to 8% Through New Liquid Staking TokenBy Shaurya Malwa|Edited by Sheldon Reback7 hours agoThe introduction highlights a push to tie the XRP ledger into cross-chain liquidity flows, with returns projected at 6%–8% dependent on strategy performance.What to know: Midas and Interop Labs introduced mXRP, the first liquid-staking product tied to the XRP ecosystem, at XRPL Seoul 2025.The product aims to convert dormant XRP supply into yield-bearing assets with expected returns of as much as 8%.The token is integrated with XRPL's EVM ecosystem, allowing users to engage with DeFi protocols for additional opportunities.Read full story\n\nMidas and Interop Labs introduced mXRP, the first liquid-staking product tied to the XRP ecosystem, at XRPL Seoul 2025.The product aims to convert dormant XRP supply into yield-bearing assets with expected returns of as much as 8%.The token is integrated with XRPL's EVM ecosystem, allowing users to engage with DeFi protocols for additional opportunities.\n\nLatest Crypto News HBAR Experiences Sharp Decline Amid High Volume Selling Pressure1 minute agoAnthony Scaramucci Involved as AgriFORCE One Rebrands to an AVAX Treasury Company; Shares Rise 132%7 minutes agoTom Lee’s BitMine Sells Stock at $70 to Raise Additional $365M for ETH Treasury1 hour agoPayPal Ventures Invests in Stable to Expand PYUSD Reach1 hour agoBitMEX Co-founder Arthur Hayes Dumps HYPE for a Ferrari, Then Tells Followers Not to Worry2 hours agoPlasma Unveils First Stablecoin-Native Neobank, Targeting Emerging Markets2 hours agoTop StoriesAnthony Scaramucci Involved as AgriFORCE One Rebrands to an AVAX Treasury Company; Shares Rise 132%7 minutes agoStrive to Buy Semler Scientific in First Merger of Bitcoin Treasury Companies3 hours agoBitMEX Co-founder Arthur Hayes Dumps HYPE for a Ferrari, Then Tells Followers Not to Worry2 hours agoGold Rallies an Hour After Bitcoin Drops, Suggesting a Profit Rotation Into Metals6 hours agoMetaplanet Becomes Fifth-Largest Listed Bitcoin Holder With $632M BTC Buy8 hours agoBitcoin Could Crash to $107K, XRP MACD Bearish Ahead of Fed Speak & PCE Inflation12 hours ago\n\nAboutAbout UsMastheadCareersBlogInvestor RelationsContactContact UsAccessiblilityAdvertiseSitemapSystem statusNewsMarketsFinanceTechPolicyFocusVideosCoinDesk DailyEditors PicksShortsSpotlightPodcastsCoinDesk Podcast NetworkMarkets DailyGen CUnchained with Laura ShinThe Mining Pod\n\nCryptocurrenciesPricesBitcoin (BTC)Ethereum (ETH)XRPSolana (SOL)DataTrade DataDeriviativesOrderBook DataOn-Chain DataAPIData CatalogueAI & Machine LearningIndicesMult-Asset IndicesReference RatesStrategies & ServicesInsights & AnnouncementsDocumentation & GovernanceEventsCoinDesk: Policy & RegulationConsensus Hong KongConsensus MiamiWebinarsSponsored Thought LeadershipPress ReleaseMEXCPhemexStellarResearchResearch Reports","thumbnail":"/api/assets/scraped/thumb_scraped_1-ava-labs-avalanche_1758559356053_s76kz8.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-22T16:42:35.053Z","tags":[],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://www.coindesk.com/tech/2025/09/16/solana-veteran-joins-ava-labs-to-spearhead-avalanche-growth","author":null,"originalImageUrl":"https://cdn.sanity.io/images/s3y3vcno/production/44e42c0f343ae3f78ada26c0e03949022878113c-1920x1080.png","scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T16:42:36.918Z","isScraped":1},{"id":"d3da0558-4083-4a93-b7ee-796fdd312d12","outletId":"ai","title":"The Latest AI News and AI Breakthroughs that Matter Most: 2025","summary":"Wondering what’s happening in the AI world?

It makes advanced semiconductor chips for multiple companies, including Nvidia, Apple, Tesla, AMD, and others. The company says it used 288 different process technologies to produce nearly 12,000 products in 2024, proving its broad capabilities to literally any type of client. According to research by The Motley Fool, 60% of the company's revenue comes from manufacturing its specialized 3 nanometer (nm) and 5nm chips. The transistor sizes are important -- a nanometer is 1 billionth of a meter, so the more transistors TSMC can squeeze into a semiconductor chip, the faster it can work.Back in the second quarter of 2022 -- which is not that long ago -- TSMC earned 30% of its revenue from 7nm chips. But now it gets a full 36% of its revenue from 5nm chips and 24% from 3nm chips, according to The Motley Fool's research.TSMC is one of four companies that make 3nm chips at scale, in addition to Samsung, Intel, and Xiaomi. TSMC and Samsung already have plans to mass-produce the 2nm process in 2025.To say the chips are in high demand is an understatement. TSMC announced that its revenues in August were $11.13 billion, up 33% from a year ago and up nearly 4% on a sequential monthly basis. \n \n\n \n \n googletag.cmd.push(function() {\n // Check if ID matches ID in the window.adsList array before calling googletag.display\n function isAdInAdsList(id) {\n for (var i = 0; i < window.adsList.length; i++) {\n if (window.adsList[i].id === id) {\n return true;\n }\n }\n return false;\n }\n if (isAdInAdsList('js-dfp-tag-iss')) {\n googletag.display('js-dfp-tag-iss');\n }\n });\n \n\n\n \n\n\nThe company is investing $165 billion into building new production facilities in Arizona to fabricate semiconductors domestically, which will help it get around any trade issues between Beijing and Washington. Other ways that TSMC makes moneyWhile the high-powered 5nm and 3nm chips make up the lion's share of TSMC's revenue, it also has other sources:Smartphones (27%): TSMC's semiconductors helped make 5G smartphones function. 5G was one of the biggest developments of the smartphone industry in this decade, allowing customers to access the internet with connections as speedy as a broadband connection. 5G's higher data speeds allow for high-resolution video, real-time gaming, and quick downloading speed.While the percentage of TSMC's revenue stream involving smartphones fell from 33% to 27% in the last year, this is still a critical space for TSMC. Apple highlighted the company's partnership with the fabricator in August when it announced a $600 billion commitment to manufacturing in the U.S. Internet of Things (5%): TSMC's revenue from Internet of Things devices fell from 6% to 5% in the last year. This involves a variety of products including smart home devices, smart city devices, and wearable technology. Examples include smartwatches, industrial sensors, medical monitors, lighting, speakers, and robotic vacuums that don't need high-powered 3nm or 5nm chips to function.\n \n\n \n \n googletag.cmd.push(function() {\n // Check if ID matches ID in the window.adsList array before calling googletag.display\n function isAdInAdsList(id) {\n for (var i = 0; i < window.adsList.length; i++) {\n if (window.adsList[i].id === id) {\n return true;\n }\n }\n return false;\n }\n if (isAdInAdsList('js-dfp-tag-NDA')) {\n googletag.display('js-dfp-tag-NDA');\n }\n });\n \n\n\n \n\n\nAutomotive customers (5%): This includes companies like Tesla, which are working to make autonomous driving a reality. This also involves creating chips for electric vehicles, driver assistance systems, and in-car infotainment systems.The bottom lineTSMC is continuing to advance its technology to create smaller transistors in order to fabricate more powerful chips, and as long as it continues down this path, it will remain the world's top and most significant chip fabricator.

While the token's 4.75% 24-hour decline as of September 19, 2025, raises short-term caution, deeper analysis reveals a narrative of strengthening bullish momentum. Technical Indicators: A Mixed but Optimistic PictureCAKE's price action has tested critical psychological and technical levels in recent weeks. At $2.53, the token remains below its 50-day SMA of $2.63, a bearish signalPancakeSwap (CAKE) Price Analysis: Testing Key Support at $2.53 Amid Record Trading Volume[2], but has shown resilience near key support at $2.33 and $2.31PancakeSwap (CAKE) Price Analysis: Testing Key Support at $2.53 Amid Record Trading Volume[2]. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 49.55 indicates neutral momentumPancakeSwap (CAKE) Price Analysis: Testing Key Support at $2.53 Amid Record Trading Volume[2], while the MACD histogram's bullish divergence at 0.0244 suggests weakening sell pressurePancakeSwap (CAKE) Price Analysis: Testing Key Support at $2.53 Amid Record Trading Volume[2]. This divergence, coupled with CAKE's recent breakouts above resistance levels, hints at a potential shift in sentiment. A critical threshold lies at $2.67, where a breakout could trigger a 30% upside move toward $3.31PancakeSwap (CAKE) Price Analysis: Testing Key Support at $2.53 Amid Record Trading Volume[2]. Analysts like Daniel Ramsey have drawn attention to a bullish triangle pattern in CAKE's chart, with projected targets as high as $11.75PancakeSwap August Recap 2025[4]. While such long-term optimism is speculative, the immediate technical backdrop—particularly the token's alignment with exponential moving averages (EMAs)—supports a near-term case for accumulationPancakeSwap (CAKE) Surges 8.23% as Record $58.7B Trading Volume Drives Technical Momentum[1]. Historically, a MACD Golden Cross strategy has shown strong performance, with a total profit of $4,280 and a maximum drawdown of -$1,460 when holding for 30 trading days from 2022 to nowPancakeSwap August Recap 2025[4]. This suggests that following the MACD Golden Cross signal could offer a reliable entry point for traders seeking to capitalize on CAKE's momentum. On-Chain Volume: A Validation of Investor ConfidencePancakeSwap's on-chain activity in 2025 has been nothing short of extraordinary. August 2025 saw a record $58.7 billion in trading volumePancakeSwap (CAKE) Surges 8.23% as Record $58.7B Trading Volume Drives Technical Momentum[1], directly correlating with a 2.94% price increase to $2.52PancakeSwap (CAKE) Surges 8.23% as Record $58.7B Trading Volume Drives Technical Momentum[1]. This surge was driven by a combination of strategic initiatives, including a $250,000 reward pool for its fifth-anniversary campaignPancakeSwap (CAKE) Surges 8.23% as Record $58.7B Trading Volume Drives Technical Momentum[1] and a token burn of 9,039,859 CAKE tokens in September 2025PancakeSwap (CAKE) Surges 8.23% as Record $58.7B Trading Volume Drives Technical Momentum[1]. The latter move, part of PancakeSwap's deflationary strategy, has reduced the maximum supply from 750 million to 450 millionPancakeSwap August Recap 2025[4], potentially amplifying scarcity-driven demand. Daily inflows have further underscored investor interest. In Q3 2025, CAKE recorded a $3.37 million net inflow—a monthly high—coinciding with a 21% price surge to $2.56PancakeSwap (CAKE) Surges 8.23% as Record $58.7B Trading Volume Drives Technical Momentum[1]. This buying pressure outpaced competitors like Uniswap and RaydiumPancakeSwap (CAKE) Soars 21% as Inflows Hit Monthly High[3], while a positive funding rate of 0.0021% signaled bullish positioningPancakeSwap (CAKE) Surges 8.23% as Record $58.7B Trading Volume Drives Technical Momentum[1]. Such metrics align with broader platform growth: Q1 2025 alone saw a 922% increase in trading volume since Q1 2023PancakeSwap (CAKE) Price Analysis: Testing Key Support at $2.53 Amid Record Trading Volume[2], alongside an 81% rise in unique usersPancakeSwap (CAKE) Price Analysis: Testing Key Support at $2.53 Amid Record Trading Volume[2]. Strategic Catalysts and Risk ConsiderationsPancakeSwap's multi-chain expansion—spanning 10 blockchains including BNB Chain, Base, and Arbitrum—has been a key driver of its dominancePancakeSwap August Recap 2025[4]. With cumulative trading volume hitting $1.5 trillion as of May 2025PancakeSwap August Recap 2025[4], the platform's ecosystem is well-positioned to capitalize on cross-chain DeFi trends. However, caution is warranted. CAKE's current price remains vulnerable to a breakdown below $2.31, which could reignite bearish momentumPancakeSwap (CAKE) Price Analysis: Testing Key Support at $2.53 Amid Record Trading Volume[2]. Additionally, while long-term forecasts from Gate and Changelly project $4.70–$5.00 by 2030PancakeSwap August Recap 2025[4], these assumptions hinge on sustained DeFi adoption and favorable macroeconomic conditions. Conclusion: A Calculated Bull CaseFor investors with a short-to-medium-term horizon, CAKE presents a compelling case. The token's technical indicators, while mixed, show early signs of a bullish reversal, particularly if it can hold above $2.33 and retest $2.67. On-chain data—record volumes, strategic tokenomics, and multi-chain growth—further validates this narrative. However, the path to $3.00 and beyond remains contingent on macro conditions and the platform's ability to maintain its competitive edge. As always, position sizing and risk management are critical. But for those willing to navigate the volatility, CAKE's confluence of technical and on-chain strength offers a unique opportunity in the DeFi space.\n\nTop NewsOracle Jumps as Co-CEO Pivot Meets Reported $20B Meta Cloud Pact, Recharging the AI StoryJay's Insight1h agoLoading...David Bahnsen on AI, Tariffs, and the Moral Case for CapitalismJay's Insight4h agoLoading...Trump Rekindles Ties with Musk as Immigration Overhaul Targets High-Stakes TalentWallstreet Insight15h agoLoading...Crypto SignalTrade Smarter: Get Crypto Signals for BNB and Gain an Edge.Get it nowRelated ArticlesPancakeSwap (CAKE) on the Brink of a Breakout: Technical and On-Chain Signals Point to Strategic EntryAInvest09/10Loading...PancakeSwap's ($CAKE) Potential Breakout: On-Chain Momentum and DeFi Market Positioning Signal Strong Bullish TrajectoryAInvest09/21Loading...Market Overview for PancakeSwap/Tether (CAKE/USDT) - 2025-09-18AInvest09/18Loading...Trending NewsTrump Rekindles Ties with Musk as Immigration Overhaul Targets High-Stakes TalentWallstreet Insight15h agoLoading...Disney Stock Drops Amid Suspension of Jimmy Kimmel Live Talk Show09/19Loading...Morgan Stanley raises Micron Technology target price to $160.00 from $135.003h agoLoading...DeepSeek upgraded to new version DeepSeek-V3.1-Terminus4h agoLoading...Vietnam’s 86 Million Bank Accounts to Close in Push for Cashless FutureCoin World09/19Loading...Capitalism Under Attack — Why Socialism Fails Every TimeAdam Shapiro09/19Loading...David Bahnsen on AI, Tariffs, and the Moral Case for CapitalismJay's Insight4h agoLoading...Cathay Pacific to cancel all Hong Kong flights from Tuesday 6 PM to Thursday 6 AM2h agoLoading...U.S. Treasury's Bessent says all options for stabilizing Argentina are considered3h agoLoading...US Recession Risk at 93%, Analysts Predict Soft Landing4h agoLoading...Spot palladium rises 3% to $1,183.69/oz2h agoLoading...Strategy Posted on X: Strategy has acquired 850 BTC for ~$99.7 million at ~$117,344 per bitcoin and has achieved BTC Yield of 26.0% YTD 2025; as of 9/21/2025, we hodl 639,835 BTC acquired for ~$47.33 billion at ~$73,971 per bitcoin.

(TradingView/CoinDesk) What to know: JPMorgan says the $270 billion stablecoin market continues to track crypto’s overall market cap, meaning new launches may just shuffle market share.Tether plans a fully U.S.-compliant stablecoin, to compete with Circle’s USDC and appeal to institutional clients.Hyperliquid, PayPal, Robinhood, and Revolut are launching stablecoins, while Circle is building its own blockchain to keep USDC at the center of the crypto ecosystem, the report noted.\n\nJPMorgan says the $270 billion stablecoin market continues to track crypto’s overall market cap, meaning new launches may just shuffle market share.Tether plans a fully U.S.-compliant stablecoin, to compete with Circle’s USDC and appeal to institutional clients.Hyperliquid, PayPal, Robinhood, and Revolut are launching stablecoins, while Circle is building its own blockchain to keep USDC at the center of the crypto ecosystem, the report noted.\n\nThe $270 billion stablecoin sector has grown significantly but still accounts for less than 8% of crypto’s total market cap, a level it has held since 2020, according to a JPMorgan research note.That dynamic could turn the coming wave of U.S. stablecoin launches into a zero-sum contest, unless the crypto market itself expands significantly, analysts led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou wrote.STORY CONTINUES BELOWDon't miss another story.Subscribe to the Crypto Daybook Americas Newsletter today. See all newslettersSign me upBy signing up, you will receive emails about CoinDesk products and you agree to our terms of use and privacy policy.Tether, whose USDT is primarily used overseas, plans to debut a U.S.-compliant token, USAT. Unlike USDT, whose reserves are about 80% compliant with U.S. requirements, USAT’s backing would fully meet the new regulatory standards, the bank said.Stablecoins are cryptocurrencies whose value is tied to another asset, such as the U.S. dollar or gold. They play a major role in cryptocurrency markets, providing a payment infrastructure, and are also used to transfer money internationally. Tether's USDT is the largest stablecoin, followed by Circle's (CRCL) USDC.The passage of U.S. stablecoin legislation in July has already spurred a fresh round of launches aimed at Circle’s USDC, which dominates the U.S. market, the report noted.While new players are jockeying for position ahead of regulatory implementation, the stablecoin market’s growth remains tied to crypto’s overall market cap, the analysts wrote.Circle is also losing ground to competitors like Hyperliquid, whose exchange alone accounts for nearly 7.5% of USDC usage, as well as fintech giants PayPal (PYPL), Robinhood (HOOD), and Revolut, which are rolling out their own tokens, JPMorgan said.In response, Circle is developing Arc, a blockchain tailored to USDC transactions, to improve speed, security, and interoperability and keep USDC central to crypto infrastructure.Without significant expansion, the new wave of stablecoin competition may simply redistribute market share rather than grow the pie, the report added.USDC supply has surged to $72.5 billion, 25% ahead of Wall Street firm Bernstein's 2025 estimates, the broker said in a report earlier this month.Read more: Circle's USDC Market Share 'On a Tear,' Says Wall Street Broker Bernstein\n\nAI Disclaimer: Parts of this article were generated with the assistance from AI tools and reviewed by our editorial team to ensure accuracy and adherence to our standards.

That's about 5 1/2 billion people around the world. You know, of course, compliance and KYC permitting. So this is the first of a trend which is only going to accelerate from here. You've seen that with Galaxy working with Super State. You're going to be seeing Super State and a number of other tokenization platforms working with a whole range of different, different issuers to make their equities and to make their assets. Available to the population of the Internet and you've also seen that not just in terms of tokenizing tokenizing newer issuances like Galaxy, but then with X stocks a few months ago you also saw quite a number of of you know the apples and the Teslas and some of the the most blue chip of blue chip assets being made available on Solana as well so those are just the start I think where we're going to be going from here is this recognition that look blockchain is a fundamental. Innovation in financial infrastructure, it's really updated for the Internet, right we saw all of the content be taken online over the last 20 or 30 years and how transformative that's been and that's fundamentally what blockchain does for finance and digital assets So as that trend continues and picks up, people are going to take a look at blockchain and think this is actually what financial infrastructure should be in the digital age and this is what digital financial infrastructure should look like and fundamentally what traditional financial systems do is they. Keep track of who owns what, how much, and where. And that's what a blockchain does, inherently out-of-the-box.

Leading the pack are staking contracts, which play a pivotal role in maintaining Ethereum's network integrity while accumulating substantial holdings. Among the top institutional investors, ETF giants have carved out a significant share, reflecting a strong institutional confidence in Ethereum's future.\n\nPublic companies, notably Tesla and MicroStrategy, have reinforced their strategic positions by integrating Ether into their corporate treasuries, showcasing a diversified approach to asset management. Meanwhile, early whales, those pioneering investors who took a leap of faith in Ethereum's early days, continue to maintain influential stakes, often blending passive holding with active participation within the crypto ecosystem.\n\nAs we delve into this rich list, it's astonishing to see how diverse the owners of Ether have become, blending technology, finance, and visionary entrepreneurship. What are your thoughts on how these key players might influence the future of Ethereum?\n\n#Ethereum #CryptoOwnership #BlockchainInvesting #CryptoEconomy #DigitalAssets #FutureOfFinance\n\n- - - - - - - - - - - \n🖐 Thanks so much for taking the time to read my post. \nIf you enjoyed this post, feel free to swing by my bookstore at sleepyhippie.com or vibe with some tunes on my YouTube channel at groovyboombox.com — you just might find your new favorite thing. \nYour support means the world.

It validates Solana’s rails as fit for regulated markets and shows how fast tokenization is moving from theory to reality.\n\nBut it also raises a sovereignty question: when equities, treasuries, and stablecoins are tokenized on U.S.-dominated rails, control of both assets and infrastructure tilts to America. The U.S. doesn’t just regulate the securities — it owns the rails they now run on. For other nations, this is the clearest signal yet: sovereignty in the digital era isn’t only about issuing tokens, it’s about building and securing the rails that carry them.\n\n#Solana #Tokenization #DigitalAssets #BlockchainRails #Sovereignty #OnChainFinance #DeFi #Stablecoins #FinancialInfrastructure #USMarkets #GlobalFinance #Web3Policy #DigitalSovereignty\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Solana Foundation\n \n \n\n \n 105,287 followers\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n 2w\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n Breaking News: For the first time, a publicly traded company has tokenized its SEC-registered equity natively onto Solana 🪙 \n\nGalaxy Digital (Nasdaq: GLXY), in partnership with Superstate’s Opening Bell platform, has brought real equity shares onchain — not synthetics or wrappers, but the actual Class A common stock, with ownership recorded onchain by Superstate’s regulated transfer agent.\n\nThis milestone was made possible by Solana, where programmable token standards, low fees, and fast finality make it practical to build compliant, efficient capital markets infrastructure.\n\nTokenized GLXY shares can be held and transferred wallet-to-wallet by KYC-verified investors, with cap table updates reflected in real time.

The reason is clear: Solana provides global financial infrastructure that is transparent, permissionless, and built for internet scale.\n\nJust as the internet changed how information was shared, Solana is changing how capital is formed, traded, and settled.\n \n \n \n \n\n \n …more\n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n 445\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 22 Comments\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Like\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n Comment\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n Share\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Copy\n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n LinkedIn\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n Facebook\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n Twitter\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n Transcript\n \n\n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n Transcript\n \n\n \n \n \n Transcript\n You're seeing a lot of excitement about taking traditional financial assets, putting them on chain, because once you put them on chain, then they're accessible to all of the people who use the Internet. That's about 5 1/2 billion people around the world. You know, of course, compliance and KYC permitting. So this is the first of a trend which is only going to accelerate from here. You've seen that with Galaxy working with Super State. You're going to be seeing Super State and a number of other tokenization platforms working with a whole range of different, different issuers to make their equities and to make their assets. Available to the population of the Internet and you've also seen that not just in terms of tokenizing tokenizing newer issuances like Galaxy, but then with X stocks a few months ago you also saw quite a number of of you know the apples and the Teslas and some of the the most blue chip of blue chip assets being made available on Solana as well so those are just the start I think where we're going to be going from here is this recognition that look blockchain is a fundamental. Innovation in financial infrastructure, it's really updated for the Internet, right we saw all of the content be taken online over the last 20 or 30 years and how transformative that's been and that's fundamentally what blockchain does for finance and digital assets So as that trend continues and picks up, people are going to take a look at blockchain and think this is actually what financial infrastructure should be in the digital age and this is what digital financial infrastructure should look like and fundamentally what traditional financial systems do is they. Keep track of who owns what, how much, and where. And that's what a blockchain does, inherently out-of-the-box. And as more and more people really understand that, you're gonna see excitement and a flourishing of different use cases and adoption.\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Anton Kulibyakin\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n 1w\n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n Report this comment\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Sure, it sounds slick.

But tokenization for the sake of tokenization isn’t a revolution — it’s just a new wrapper for the same old trade. If Web3 wants to change the world, it should start with values, not packaging. Right now it’s all about access, not meaning.\n\nThe momentum behind stock tokenization on Solana shows how quickly traditional markets are adapting to blockchain rails. By lowering barriers, global investors can access assets once limited to certain regions. This feels like the next logical step in financial globalization.\n\nWhat stands out is not just accessibility but also efficiency, instant settlement and transparent ownership are game changers.

Leading the pack are staking contracts, which play a pivotal role in maintaining Ethereum's network integrity while accumulating substantial holdings. Among the top institutional investors, ETF giants have carved out a significant share, reflecting a strong institutional confidence in Ethereum's future.\n\nPublic companies, notably Tesla and MicroStrategy, have reinforced their strategic positions by integrating Ether into their corporate treasuries, showcasing a diversified approach to asset management. Meanwhile, early whales, those pioneering investors who took a leap of faith in Ethereum's early days, continue to maintain influential stakes, often blending passive holding with active participation within the crypto ecosystem.\n\nAs we delve into this rich list, it's astonishing to see how diverse the owners of Ether have become, blending technology, finance, and visionary entrepreneurship.

It validates Solana’s rails as fit for regulated markets and shows how fast tokenization is moving from theory to reality.\n\nBut it also raises a sovereignty question: when equities, treasuries, and stablecoins are tokenized on U.S.-dominated rails, control of both assets and infrastructure tilts to America. The U.S. doesn’t just regulate the securities — it owns the rails they now run on. For other nations, this is the clearest signal yet: sovereignty in the digital era isn’t only about issuing tokens, it’s about building and securing the rails that carry them.\n\n#Solana #Tokenization #DigitalAssets #BlockchainRails #Sovereignty #OnChainFinance #DeFi #Stablecoins #FinancialInfrastructure #USMarkets #GlobalFinance #Web3Policy #DigitalSovereignty\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Solana Foundation\n \n \n\n \n 105,287 followers\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n 2w\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n Breaking News: For the first time, a publicly traded company has tokenized its SEC-registered equity natively onto Solana 🪙 \n\nGalaxy Digital (Nasdaq: GLXY), in partnership with Superstate’s Opening Bell platform, has brought real equity shares onchain — not synthetics or wrappers, but the actual Class A common stock, with ownership recorded onchain by Superstate’s regulated transfer agent.\n\nThis milestone was made possible by Solana, where programmable token standards, low fees, and fast finality make it practical to build compliant, efficient capital markets infrastructure.\n\nTokenized GLXY shares can be held and transferred wallet-to-wallet by KYC-verified investors, with cap table updates reflected in real time.

Today it’s already happening.\nJust in the past months:\nGalaxy × Superstate issued tokenized equities natively on Solana.\nxStocks brought blue-chip stocks like Apple and Tesla on-chain for non-US investors.\nAnd this is just the beginning. Analysts project that by 2030 the market for tokenized assets could reach $16 trillion 🌍 (Boston Consulting Group). Already, more than $2.5B worth of assets are tokenized today - from bonds to equities.\nWhy Solana?\n Because it offers what traditional rails can’t:\n ⚡ Speed + low cost\n 🔗 Transparency + no gatekeepers\n 🌐 Access for anyone with an internet connection\nFor me, the most exciting part is simple: just as the internet reshaped how we share information, Solana is reshaping how capital is formed, traded, and settled.\n👉 The question isn’t if tokenization will define the next decade of finance. The question is: how early will you choose to be part of it?\n\nSolana Foundation\n \n \n\n \n 105,287 followers\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n 1w\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n Solana Foundation President Lily Liu explains why the stock tokenization trend will continue to accelerate 🪙 \n\nIn just the past few months, we’ve seen Galaxy partner with Superstate to natively issue tokenized equities on Solana, while xStocks made blue-chip names like Apple and Tesla tradable to non-US investors.\n\nMore issuers and platforms are preparing to bring a wide range of assets on chain, making them accessible to a global internet-native investor base.

Leading the pack are staking contracts, which play a pivotal role in maintaining Ethereum's network integrity while accumulating substantial holdings. Among the top institutional investors, ETF giants have carved out a significant share, reflecting a strong institutional confidence in Ethereum's future.\n\nPublic companies, notably Tesla and MicroStrategy, have reinforced their strategic positions by integrating Ether into their corporate treasuries, showcasing a diversified approach to asset management. Meanwhile, early whales, those pioneering investors who took a leap of faith in Ethereum's early days, continue to maintain influential stakes, often blending passive holding with active participation within the crypto ecosystem.\n\nAs we delve into this rich list, it's astonishing to see how diverse the owners of Ether have become, blending technology, finance, and visionary entrepreneurship. What are your thoughts on how these key players might influence the future of Ethereum?\n\n#Ethereum #CryptoOwnership #BlockchainInvesting #CryptoEconomy #DigitalAssets #FutureOfFinance\n\n- - - - - - - - - - - \n🖐 Thanks so much for taking the time to read my post. \nIf you enjoyed this post, feel free to swing by my bookstore at sleepyhippie.com or vibe with some tunes on my YouTube channel at groovyboombox.com — you just might find your new favorite thing. \nYour support means the world.

It validates Solana’s rails as fit for regulated markets and shows how fast tokenization is moving from theory to reality.\n\nBut it also raises a sovereignty question: when equities, treasuries, and stablecoins are tokenized on U.S.-dominated rails, control of both assets and infrastructure tilts to America. The U.S. doesn’t just regulate the securities — it owns the rails they now run on. For other nations, this is the clearest signal yet: sovereignty in the digital era isn’t only about issuing tokens, it’s about building and securing the rails that carry them.\n\n#Solana #Tokenization #DigitalAssets #BlockchainRails #Sovereignty #OnChainFinance #DeFi #Stablecoins #FinancialInfrastructure #USMarkets #GlobalFinance #Web3Policy #DigitalSovereignty\n\nSolana Foundation\n \n \n\n \n 105,287 followers\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n 2w\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n Breaking News: For the first time, a publicly traded company has tokenized its SEC-registered equity natively onto Solana 🪙 \n\nGalaxy Digital (Nasdaq: GLXY), in partnership with Superstate’s Opening Bell platform, has brought real equity shares onchain — not synthetics or wrappers, but the actual Class A common stock, with ownership recorded onchain by Superstate’s regulated transfer agent.\n\nThis milestone was made possible by Solana, where programmable token standards, low fees, and fast finality make it practical to build compliant, efficient capital markets infrastructure.\n\nTokenized GLXY shares can be held and transferred wallet-to-wallet by KYC-verified investors, with cap table updates reflected in real time.

They are typically more volatile than Bitcoin and present high-risk, high-reward scenarios. Altseason refers to a short time frame when capital shifts from Bitcoin to altcoins, leading to a notable and rapid rise in the prices of most cryptocurrencies.\n\nThis article is available in the following languages:\n\nAltseason is a period when capital flows from Bitcoin to altcoins, resulting in rapid price increases and heightened volatility across the cryptocurrency market. In September 2025, altseason is actively underway, marked by declining Bitcoin dominance, rising altcoin trading volumes, and strong institutional interest in Ethereum and other alts. While altseasons can offer significant profit opportunities, they are unpredictable, short-lived, and come with increased risks, making research and secure asset storage essential for participants.\n\nAfter a substantial increase in Bitcoin's price, it tends to stabilize and move sideways for a while. This situation persuades investors to search for more profitable opportunities. They often exchange their BTC for Ethereum(ETH) and other promising alts, decreasing Bitcoin's share of the total crypto market and triggering an altseason.","thumbnail":"https://tangem.com/_astro/What_is_Altcoin_Season_When_is_Altseason_in_February_2025_d154feb145_Z1gsy2.png","publishedAt":"2025-09-22T13:21:02.692Z","tags":[],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":null,"author":null,"originalImageUrl":null,"scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T16:25:36.154Z","isScraped":0},{"id":"a344af05-2250-46a2-8bc5-0131fe59126a","outletId":"alt-coin","title":"5 Signs the 2025 Altseason Could Be Bigger Than Ever","summary":"Altcoins are gaining momentum as Bitcoin dominance falls.

Discover the key signals pointing to the 2025 altseason and market growth.\n\nThere's a widespread belief in the cyclical nature of the crypto market. According to this concept, cryptoasset dynamics often follow a recognizable pattern: Bitcoin leads, then Ethereum gains attention, and finally altcoins rise. During these periods, many high-return opportunities emerge, leaving newcomers feeling they’ve missed out.\n\nA trader's main challenge is identifying the period of the most active altcoin growth, commonly known as altseason. However, each cycle unfolds differently and is influenced by unique market events, complicating forecasting and analysis.","thumbnail":"https://res.coinpaper.com/coinpaper/image/upload/v1758476367/shutterstock_2091877750_d17eb88b7f.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-22T13:20:58.839Z","tags":[],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":null,"author":null,"originalImageUrl":null,"scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T16:25:36.154Z","isScraped":0},{"id":"f4835132-2d44-4cb7-a6b6-7a9d191cd0dc","outletId":"alt-coin","title":"Michael Saylor's Strategic Move: Why the September Crypto Presale Could Outperform Bitcoin","summary":"Michael Saylor's Strategic Move: Why the September Crypto Presale Could Outperform Bitcoin","body":"This article was originally published at https://www.ainvest.com/news/michael-saylor-strategic-move-september-crypto-presale-outperform-bitcoin-2509/.\n\nMichael Saylor's Strategic Move: Why the September Crypto Presale Could Outperform Bitcoin\n\nAdrian Sava is a retail and institutional investor who blends macroeconomic awareness with selective chart analysis.

Founded in\n\nThe anticipation surrounding Bittensor (TAO) is palpable within both the cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence sectors, fueled by speculation that the token could ascend to an extraordinary price point of $3,000. Central to this discussion is the upcoming halving event scheduled for December 2025, which is expected to significantly impact supply and, subsequently, market value.\n\nBittensor aims to revolutionize the realm of AI by creating a decentralized marketplace for AI models, encouraging competition and collaboration. Founded in 2021 by Jacob Robert Steeves, a former Google engineer, Bittensor was designed to democratize AI development, moving it away from the monopolistic grasp of major tech firms. The network comprises specialized mini markets known as “subnets,” each dedicated to completing specific tasks, thus enhancing the efficiency of AI contributions. Miners and validators who provide the most effective AI models are rewarded with TAO tokens, supported by a mechanism known as “Yuma Consensus,” which prioritizes the most useful intelligence.\n\nThe upcoming halving event represents a pivotal moment for Bittensor’s economy. Similar to Bitcoin’s historical halvings, this event will cut the daily reward for miners from 7,200 TAO to 3,600, thereby squeezing supply while potential demand remains high. Given that Bitcoin’s past halvings have often precipitated significant price rallies, many investors see a parallel in Bittensor, particularly with growing interest in AI technology.","thumbnail":"https://news.ssbcrack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Bittensors-TAO-Coin-Can-It-Really-Hit-3000-Amid-Upcoming.png","publishedAt":"2025-09-22T13:20:16.776Z","tags":[],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":null,"author":null,"originalImageUrl":null,"scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T16:25:36.154Z","isScraped":0},{"id":"41c33717-f38b-466d-b7b2-6c7da0cc08cf","outletId":"robert-myers","title":"Will AI coin TAO reach $3,000 as its first halving approaches?","summary":"Can Bittensor's TAO price reach $3,000?

Imagine it as a global brain, with each ‘neuron’ representing a machine learning model that is owned by a different individual somewhere in the world. Similar to how neurons in your brain cooperate to enable thought and decision-making, these models work together to digest information and deliver intelligent answers. Unlike traditional AI development controlled by big tech companies, Bittensor allows anyone to contribute, share, and monetize AI models in an open ecosystem. The network rewards participants with its native cryptocurrency, TAO, for providing useful models (miners) or evaluating their performance (validators).\n\nThe platform operates through specialized subnets, each focusing on different AI tasks like text generation, image recognition, or data analysis. Miners train and submit models, validators evaluate them, and users pay TAO to access AI services. TAO, the native token of Bittensor, is used for staking , governance, and as payment for AI services and applications that are developed on the Bittensor TAO network. Users who provide the network with useful data or computing resources are rewarded with TAO tokens. Every 12 seconds, the blockchain is refreshed and new TAO tokens are added to the system.\n\nBittensor was created in 2021 by the Opentensor Foundation, an organization founded by Jacob Steeves and Ala Shaabana.

Arca CIO Jeff Dorman distinguished between platform criticism and token skepticism, stating he was “bear posting $UNI” rather than the underlying protocol.\n\n\n\n\nWe’re not bear posting Uniswap. We’re bear posting $UNI. Just a complete nonsense token in today’s market & changing regulatory environment. Everything you and your VCs stand for is irrelevant.

Analyst Greg Miller identified UNI forming “one of the cleanest cup & handle patterns on the charts right now,” noting the token bottomed near $5 earlier this year before steadily climbing back to current consolidation around $10.\n\n\n\n\n$UNI is showing one of the cleanest cup & handle patterns on the charts right now.After bottoming near $5 earlier this year, UNI has steadily climbed back and is now consolidating around the $10 zone.

He projected that a breakout above $12.21 could drive UNI toward $15.46 or higher. Miller also called this as “the kind of setup smart money watches closely” that could trigger “a powerful move that defines the next leg of its rally.”\n\n\n\n\n\n\n (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n\n\n\n\nCurrent market data shows UNI declining over 10% in the past 24 hours and dropping 26% during the previous 30 days. This poor price performance contrasts with both Uniswap’s operational metrics and the bullish technical formation identified by analysts.\n\n\n\nThe divergent perspectives highlight ongoing debates within decentralized finance about token value capture versus technical trading opportunities. While critics focus on fundamental utility concerns, technical analysts see potential for price appreciation based on chart patterns.\n\n\n\nRelated: Arthur Hayes Exits HYPE Position Weeks After Predicting 126x Surge\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\n \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDisclaimer: The information presented in this article is for informational and educational purposes only.

A raft of Chinese firms, including brokerages, have launched RWAs in Hong Kong over the past few months. Sign up here.At least two leading brokerages have received informal guidance from the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) in recent weeks to refrain from conducting RWA business offshore, said the sources with knowledge of the matter.One of the sources said the latest regulatory guidance is aimed at strengthening risk management of a new business and making sure the claims made by companies are backed by strong, legitimate businesses.The move comes as Hong Kong over the past year ramped up efforts to position the Asian financial centre as a digital assets hub, with many firms, including Chinese brokerages, preparing for the launch of virtual asset trading, investment advisory and virtual asset management.China, once the world's biggest bitcoin trading and mining centre, on the other hand, has taken a cautious approach towards digital assets after it banned cryptocurrency trading and mining in 2021 due to financial system stability concerns.Last month, Chinese regulators asked big local brokers to halt publication of research endorsing stablecoins in a bid to curb a surge in interest in the digital currency among domestic investors, Reuters has reported, citing sources.Beijing's latest move comes even as Hong Kong said in June its Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau (FSTB) and the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) are conducting a legal review of RWA tokenisation, drawing on international experience.The global RWA market is currently worth around $29 billion, according to data provider RWA.xyz. China Merchants Securities, citing industry forecasts, said last month the figure could exceed $2 trillion by 2030.It was not immediately known how long the Chinese securities regulator's informal guidance to some brokerages on halting RWA business in Hong Kong would remain in force. The sources could not be named as they were not authorised to speak to the media.The CSRC, HKMA, and FSTB did not immediately respond to Reuters' request for comment.

Sign up here.The Fed on Wednesday lowered its benchmark rate to the 4.00%-to-4.25% range, the first such move since Trump was inaugurated in January and touched off a series of policy actions, including the imposition of dramatically higher tariffs, that pushed the Fed to the sidelines waiting to see the economic impact.Miran said on Friday he would offer a detailed rationale for his rate view at an appearance on Monday in New York. Powell speaks in Rhode Island on Tuesday.The Fed remains under pressure from Trump to lower rates, with Miran sworn in moments ahead of last week's meeting and in the unusual position of joining the ostensibly independent central bank while on leave as chair of Trump's Council of Economic Advisers, and Trump asking the Supreme Court to allow his attempted firing of Fed Governor Lisa Cook to proceed.Among a narrowly divided group of officials, the coming decision could define whether the Fed has embarked on a steady round of cuts, or is buying time to gather information.Officials will have a relatively thin set of new information in hand to consider, including just a single month of new data on employment and inflation, covering September. The components of third-quarter gross domestic product will be available, but the initial estimate of growth and output will not be issued until after the next meeting.JOB RISKS SEEN RISING WITH CLOSE EYE ON SEPTEMBER REPORTThe sense of risks has been changing, a fact seen in both the decision to cut interest rates last week and in indexes published as part of new Fed projections.Those showed concern about the twin ills of rising inflation and rising unemployment, reflective of \"stagflation,\" peaked in March. Since then the risk of higher-than-expected inflation has eased, while the risk of higher-than-expected unemployment has increased.<img src=\"https://www.reuters.com/graphics/USA-FED/RISKS/akvexlarkpr/chart.png\" alt=\"Line chart showing risks of inflation and unemployment among Federal Reserve poilcymakers.\" />Line chart showing risks of inflation and unemployment among Federal Reserve poilcymakers.September employment data will be released on October 3. While the unemployment rate remains low at 4.3%, job gains have slowed. What Powell calls a \"curious\" balance in the labor market has been maintained by stagnation in the number of people looking for work, an effect of the Trump administration's tightened immigration policies.<img src=\"https://www.reuters.com/graphics/USA-FED/JOBS/gkvlaexqjpb/chart.png\" alt=\"Line graph showing monthly and three month average job gains.\" />Line graph showing monthly and three month average job gains.To see ahead of the curve, policymakers have started looking at indicators like the unemployment rate among minorities, the length of the workweek, and the struggles of younger workers and college graduates to find jobs.<img src=\"https://www.reuters.com/resizer/v2/S2HDMCOK7JK23CT3TRSO6372CU.jpg?auth=b4273c46cf74dc84a94d865bd6cc6641f81b3a9f2131a335e8d20178d1acb26a&width=1080&quality=80\" width=\"4676\" height=\"3117\" alt=\"Senate Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Committee nomination hearing on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C.\" />Item 1 of 2 U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell speaks during a press conference, following the issuance of the Federal Open Market Committee's statement on interest rate policy, in Washington, D.C., U.S., September 17, 2025.

The Fed uses a different inflation measure, the Personal Consumption Expenditures price index, to set its 2% inflation target, and that won't be released until after the meeting. But CPI and PPI feed into that, allowing estimates of the September figure in time for the Fed's October meeting.The expectation among policymakers is clear: Inflation is expected to increase through the rest of the year and end 2025 one percentage point above target.The median projection for year-end PCE inflation, excluding volatile food and energy prices, was 3.1%, higher than the current 2.9% for July, a figure that has risen for the past three months.Under other circumstances those numbers might trigger warnings about rate hikes.

(Nasdaq: DFDV) (the “Company”) the first public company with a treasury strategy built to accumulate and compound Solana (“SOL”), today announced a strategic collaboration with ZeroStack, a next-generation Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) focused on accumulating the 0G cryptoasset. 0G is the native token behind the 0G Network, a decentralized AI Layer-1 blockchain that orchestrates hardware resources and software assets to handle AI workloads at scale. As part of the relationship, the Company participated in a private placement transaction by Flora Growth Corp. (Nasdaq: FLGC), which expects to rebrand as ZeroStack, through an in-kind contribution of SOL in exchange for a convertible note, and also entered into an agreement to provide ZeroStack with services such as asset management, accounting/finance support, and technology services. In addition, the Company received an equity stake in ZeroStack. This relationship with ZeroStack underscores DeFi Development Corp.’s approach of combining strategic collaborations with active participation in the growth of emerging digital asset treasuries. Through this collaboration, ZeroStack and the 0G network will be building a bridge to the Solana ecosystem to support development of decentralized AI applications across both chains. Additionally, ZeroStack will hold the SOL invested by DFDV on their balance sheet. The convertible note issued to the Company by ZeroStack is denominated in SOL and provides for interest payments to the Company at an 8.0% annual rate, payable on a quarterly basis in SOL. “The DFDV Treasury Accelerator is designed to back the most innovative treasury structures in digital assets,” said Joseph Onorati, Chief Executive Officer of DeFi Development Corp. “Our collaboration with ZeroStack shows how we can combine strategic capital, operational expertise, and aligned incentives to help shape the future of crypto treasury companies, while continuing to find innovative ways to grow Solana per share.” X Spaces Event DeFi Development Corp. will host an X Spaces titled “DFDV Dealmaking: An Update on Treasury Accelerator Initiatives” on Tuesday, September 23, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. ET. The discussion will cover recent deals announced under the Company’s Treasury Accelerator program, including ZeroStack, DFDV UK, and more. Management will provide insights into how these strategic franchise arrangements are designed to fuel SOL Per Share (SPS) growth. The live event can be accessed at the following link: https://x.com/i/spaces/1mrxmBDWVdZKy About DeFi Development Corp. DeFi Development Corp. (Nasdaq: DFDV) has adopted a treasury policy under which the principal holding in its treasury reserve is allocated to SOL. Through this strategy, the Company provides investors with direct economic exposure to SOL, while also actively participating in the growth of the Solana ecosystem. In addition to holding and staking SOL, DeFi Development Corp. operates its own validator infrastructure, generating staking rewards and fees from delegated stake. The Company is also engaged across decentralized finance (“DeFi”) opportunities and continues to explore innovative ways to support and benefit from Solana’s expanding application layer. The Company is an AI-powered online platform that connects the commercial real estate industry by providing data and software subscriptions, as well as value-add services, to multifamily and commercial property professionals, as the Company connects the increasingly complex ecosystem that stakeholders have to manage.

(Nasdaq: DFDV) (the “Company”) the first public company with a treasury strategy built to accumulate and compound Solana (“SOL”), today announced a strategic collaboration with ZeroStack, a next-generation Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) focused on accumulating the 0G cryptoasset. 0G is the native token behind the 0G Network, a decentralized AI Layer-1 blockchain that orchestrates hardware resources and software assets to handle AI workloads at scale. As part of the relationship, the Company participated in a private placement transaction by Flora Growth Corp. (Nasdaq: FLGC), which expects to rebrand as ZeroStack, through an in-kind contribution of SOL in exchange for a convertible note, and also entered into an agreement to provide ZeroStack with services such as asset management, accounting/finance support, and technology services. In addition, the Company received an equity stake in ZeroStack. This relationship with ZeroStack underscores DeFi Development Corp.’s approach of combining strategic collaborations with active participation in the growth of emerging digital asset treasuries. Through this collaboration, ZeroStack and the 0G network will be building a bridge to the Solana ecosystem to support development of decentralized AI applications across both chains. Additionally, ZeroStack will hold the SOL invested by DFDV on their balance sheet. The convertible note issued to the Company by ZeroStack is denominated in SOL and provides for interest payments to the Company at an 8.0% annual rate, payable on a quarterly basis in SOL. “The DFDV Treasury Accelerator is designed to back the most innovative treasury structures in digital assets,” said Joseph Onorati, Chief Executive Officer of DeFi Development Corp. “Our collaboration with ZeroStack shows how we can combine strategic capital, operational expertise, and aligned incentives to help shape the future of crypto treasury companies, while continuing to find innovative ways to grow Solana per share.” X Spaces Event DeFi Development Corp. will host an X Spaces titled “DFDV Dealmaking: An Update on Treasury Accelerator Initiatives” on Tuesday, September 23, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. ET. The discussion will cover recent deals announced under the Company’s Treasury Accelerator program, including ZeroStack, DFDV UK, and more. Management will provide insights into how these strategic franchise arrangements are designed to fuel SOL Per Share (SPS) growth. The live event can be accessed at the following link: https://x.com/i/spaces/1mrxmBDWVdZKy About DeFi Development Corp. DeFi Development Corp. (Nasdaq: DFDV) has adopted a treasury policy under which the principal holding in its treasury reserve is allocated to SOL. Through this strategy, the Company provides investors with direct economic exposure to SOL, while also actively participating in the growth of the Solana ecosystem. In addition to holding and staking SOL, DeFi Development Corp. operates its own validator infrastructure, generating staking rewards and fees from delegated stake. The Company is also engaged across decentralized finance (“DeFi”) opportunities and continues to explore innovative ways to support and benefit from Solana’s expanding application layer.

Investors have watched familiar names like TRON (TRX) slip into consolidation, struggling to hold attention as new capital hunts more lucrative opportunities. In contrast, BlockchainFX (BFX) has arrived with a presale story that’s difficult to ignore, real traction, real numbers, and projections that echo the early stages of crypto’s biggest success stories.\n\n\n\nIn today’s volatile environment, missing the right token at the right stage can cost investors years of returns. That’s why the spotlight is moving away from fading coins and toward projects that combine cutting-edge tech with early-access pricing.\n\n\n\n\nWhat you'll learn 👉\nToggleTRON (TRX): A Coin Stuck in NeutralBlockchainFX (BFX): Where the Real Growth Is HappeningWhy This Project Feels DifferentExplosive Presale Potential That Shouldn’t be MissedWhy Investors See BFX as the Next Crypto to ExplodeFinal TakeFor More Information:FAQs\nTRON (TRX): A Coin Stuck in Neutral\n\n\n\nTRON is no stranger to headlines, but recent weeks have told a different story. After facing heavy selling pressure, the token is hovering around its support zone. Analysts note the sideways movement could drag on, leaving traders waiting without a clear direction.\n\n\n\nThat’s the problem with established altcoins: they often lack the explosive upside new presales can deliver. While TRX may remain functional within its ecosystem, it’s no longer the token investors whisper about in search of the next 10x or 100x. That chatter has shifted elsewhere.\n\n\n\nBlockchainFX (BFX): Where the Real Growth Is Happening\n\n\n\nBlockchainFX is not pitching vague promises; it’s already moving. In beta, it has been recognized as the Best New Crypto Trading App of 2025 and has attracted more than 10,200 participants to its presale, raising $7.6M+ to date.\n\n\n\nThe vision is bold: a trading super app that lets users swap seamlessly across 500+ assets, crypto, forex, stocks, ETFs, and commodities. No hopping between apps, no fragmented accounts, just one unified platform. For traders tired of managing three or more exchanges at once, it feels like the natural evolution of global finance.\n\n\n\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"127\" src=\"https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1406-1024x127.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-730522\" srcset=\"https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1406-1024x127.png 1024w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1406-300x37.png 300w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1406-760x94.png 760w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1406-1536x190.png 1536w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1406-2048x253.png 2048w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1406-1213x150.png 1213w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1406-100x12.png 100w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1406-788x97.png 788w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1406.png 728w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" />\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhy This Project Feels Different\n\n\n\nTwo features stand out for early adopters:\n\n\n\n\nSuper App With 500+ Assets in One Place\n\n\n\n\nInstead of handling transactions between multiple brokerages, exchanges, and wallets, BlockchainFX unifies everything. From Bitcoin to gold to Tesla stock, users can trade 500+ assets instantly in one account. This saves time, reduces fees, and eliminates missed trades due to switching platforms.\n\n\n\n\nDaily Passive Rewards That Scale\n\n\n\n\nBlockchainFX isn’t just a trading app; it’s designed to reward holders every single day. Up to 70% of trading fees are redistributed to the community in BFX and USDT. That means while traders execute across crypto, forex, or stocks, token holders keep stacking payouts automatically.\n\n\n\n\nBFX as a Staking and Spending Token\n\n\n\n\nBeyond trading, BlockchainFX plans to launch a BFX Visa card, giving holders the ability to spend their crypto like cash globally, with no limits. Paired with daily staking payouts, BFX acts as both a yield asset and a payment solution.\n\n\n\nExplosive Presale Potential That Shouldn’t be Missed\n\n\n\nCurrently, the presale price is $0.024, which is set to double at launch to $0.05. With promo code BLOCK30, a $20,000 entry secures 1,083,333 BFX tokens, 30% more than standard. At launch, that bag would be worth $54,166. But if BFX follows analyst predictions of reaching $1, that early stake balloons into $1.08 million.\n\n\n\nNumbers like these don’t require hype; they speak for themselves. And with demand climbing daily, each presale stage will only get more expensive.\n\n\n\nAnyone buying $100+ of BFX now automatically enters into the $500,000 Gleam giveaway, with $250,000 in BFX waiting for the top prize winner.\n\n\n\nWhy Investors See BFX as the Next Crypto to Explode\n\n\n\nMomentum is everything in crypto, and BlockchainFX has it. Thousands of traders are already using the beta app, staking rewards are live, and presale traction proves the appetite is real. Unlike speculative meme tokens, BFX anchors itself to utility, daily use, multi-market access, and revenue-sharing rewards in both BFX and USDT.\n\n\n\nThis mix of traction and upside is why comparisons to early Binance Coin (BNB) are already surfacing. Back then, few saw the long-term potential of BNB. Today, BlockchainFX is offering a similar ground-floor entry, except this time, the trading platform is even broader.\n\n\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"570\" src=\"https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1408-1024x570.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-730538\" srcset=\"https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1408-1024x570.png 1024w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1408-300x167.png 300w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1408-768x427.png 768w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1408-1536x854.png 1536w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1408-2048x1139.png 2048w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1408-270x150.png 270w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1408-100x56.png 100w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1408-629x350.png 629w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1408-788x438.png 788w, https://captainaltcoin.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image-1408.png 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" />\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFinal Take\n\n\n\nTRON is treading water. BlockchainFX is sprinting toward what could be one of the most profitable launches of 2025. With presale prices climbing and bonuses limited, waiting could mean paying double, or worse, missing the stage entirely.\n\n\n\nFor those asking which is the top crypto to buy right now, the answer is clear: BlockchainFX is the next crypto to explode. Early investors stand to capture the kind of upside that only comes once every few cycles.\n\n\n\nUse code BLOCK30 before the next price jump. Secure your tokens, claim your share of rewards, and position yourself for what could be the next million-dollar crypto story.\n\n\n\nFor More Information:\n\n\n\nWebsite | X | Telegram Chat\n\n\n\nFAQs\n\n\n\n1. What makes BlockchainFX unique compared to other presales? It’s the first trading super app connecting crypto with traditional assets, already in beta with thousands of active users.\n\n\n\n2. What’s the current price of BFX? The presale is live at $0.024, with a launch price of $0.05.\n\n\n\n3. How much can I earn with $20,000 invested now? With the BLOCK30 bonus, you’d receive 1,083,333 BFX. At $0.05, it’s worth $54,166. At $1, over $1 million.\n\n\n\n4. Is TRON still a good buy? TRON is consolidating under pressure, but it lacks the explosive upside of BlockchainFX’s presale.5. How do I qualify for the $500,000 Gleam giveaway? Buy $100+ of BFX during the presale and you’re instantly eligible.\n\n\n\nDISCLAIMER: CAPTAINALTCOIN DOES NOT ENDORSE INVESTING IN ANY PROJECT MENTIONED IN SPONSORED ARTICLES.

Its token LINK is an ERC-677 token, which is an extension of ERC-20. The Chainlink network is used to facilitate secure and reliable transfer of data between off-chain sources and on-chain smart contracts.\n\n\n\nChainlink (LINK) tokens are what feeds the data from off-chain sources to smart contracts. LINK tokens can be stored in any ERC-20-compatible digital wallets, as the ERC-677 standard has the same functionality as the ERC-20 one.\n\n\n\nThe network is supported by a large number of data providers, node operators, security auditors, smart contract developers, and many others. Chainlink promises decentralized participation for all users that interact with the platform — anyone can become a node operator on the network.\n\n\n\nChainlink’s new whitepaper, which was posted back in April 2021, outlined some new features and capabilities of the network, including but not limited to:\n\n\n\n\ncrypto-economic staking;\noff-chain computation;\nnumerous privacy-preserving features.\n\n\n\n\nChainlink is a rather special project. It was one of the first networks that allowed off-chain data to be transferred to on-chain smart contracts, and its innovative nature has attracted quite a lot of partners and data providers, such as Huobi. \n\n\n\nWho are Chainlink competitors?\n\n\n\nAs a cryptocurrency, Chainlink technically competes against the entire cryptocurrency market. As a project, however, Chainlink doesn’t have that many competitors — the three main ones are Band Protocol, API3, and WINKlink. \n\n\n\nAs the main purpose of oracle networks, such as Chainlink and those three mentioned above, is connecting other projects, making them compatible with each other and the real world, the most important metric for them is the number of acquired partners. And Chainlink is far ahead of its competition: it has ten times as many partnerships and integrations as those three combined. It is undoubtedly the number one oracle network. \n\n\n\nChainlink Price Analysis\n\n\n\nNow, let’s take a look at Chainlink price history.\n\n\n\nChainlink is unique as it doesn’t follow the usual altcoin price movements. It didn’t have an explosive start like many other smaller coins or tokens, and it managed to recover from the sell-off that followed its first mooning.\n\n\n\nLINK had been unable to overcome the $5 price level for almost two years, actually spending most of that time stuck below the $1 mark. Its first big break came in the summer of 2020: Chainlink managed to hit $19 in August. After that, LINK went through a brief correction period and started rising again at the beginning of 2021.\n\n\n\nChainlink price in 2021 followed the crypto market, rising in mid-spring, reaching its peak in early May, and then slowly but surely declining back to its pre-mooning numbers. However, unlike many other coins and tokens, LINK managed to recover, hovering around the $26 mark now. The current Chainlink price is $27.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMarket Predictions\n\n\n\nLet’s take a look at what industry experts think about Chainlink (LINK) price and its future. Here’s the result of TradingView’s Chainlink technical analysis.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSource: tradingview.com\n\n\n\nTradingView has a bullish outlook on the token, giving it a “Buy” signal. According to their Chainlink price forecast, this cryptocurrency still has room for growth. Their technical analysis shows that LINK is going to rise in the future.\n\n\n\nGov Capital is also bullish on this token: according to their Chainlink price prediction, LINK has a potential to reach $215 in the next few years. Many other experts, including the ones at Trading Beasts and Wallet Investor, have less optimistic price predictions, but their LINK forecasts are still overall positive — they expect the token to continue rising both in the short and the long term.\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom Zeroto Crypto Hero\n\n\n\nLearn crypto basics in 25 minutes with Pickle.

Some experts are predicting that it will hit double that in the next few years, though most don’t see it rising that high. We think that a $100 peak is possible for LINK, but the token is unlikely to stay at that price level for long.\n\n\n\nCan Chainlink reach $1,000?\n\n\n\nWell, it technically can, but we think that Chainlink price is unlikely to ever reach $1,000. It will require the token’s price to be able to comfortably stay at the very least at the $100-300 price level, which currently seems unachievable. \n\n\n\nCan Chainlink reach $10,000?\n\n\n\nWhile everything is possible, it is highly unlikely that the price of Chainlink will ever reach $10,000 — not even the most optimistic LINK price predictions expect that.\n\n\n\nIs Chainlink a good investment in 2021 and 2022?\n\n\n\nChainlink is a good investment for both the short and the long term. Most Chainlink price predictions expect this token to rise in the near future and stay strong in the next few years, so it seems to be a profitable investment.\n\n\n\nHow much will Chainlink be worth?\n\n\n\nIt’s hard to say how much exactly Chainlink (LINK) will be worth in the future, but we expect it to strengthen its position and not only rise back up to the $50 price level, but also to possibly cross the $100 mark.\n\n\n\nIs Chainlink better than Ethereum?\n\n\n\nChainlink and Ethereum are both good projects and good investment options, but Ethereum is slightly better. However, as Ethereum price is unlikely to experience drastic price movements, Chainlink (LINK) will be a better choice if you want to add a “high reward, high risk” type of asset to your portfolio.\n\n\n\n\n\nDisclaimer: Please note that the contents of this article are not financial or investing advice.

REUTERS/Benoit Tessier/File Photo Purchase Licensing Rights, opens new tabSummaryCompaniesBlackRock and Vanguard pause, then resume contactFund managers often attend meetings in 'listen-only mode'Corporations report 'more challenging' environment for talksSept 19 (Reuters) - The world's two biggest asset managers sharply scaled back the number of meetings held with company bosses this year, disclosures show, as new guidance made it harder to discuss topics like climate change and diversity.The shifts by BlackRock (BLK.N), opens new tab and Vanguard came in the wake of new guidance in February from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, led by a pick of U.S. President Donald Trump, Mark Uyeda, and could leave executives with less investor input on strategy or facing surprise critical votes at shareholder meetings. Sign up here.The directives were among a series of recent Republican efforts, opens new tab to diminish corporate actions on everything from company climate disclosures to the role of proxy advisors.Tallies in new disclosures show declines of 28% and 44% for BlackRock and Vanguard, respectively, compared to their meetings in year-ago periods.Several consultants said the declines show how the guidance has quieted talks between shareholders and managers ahead of corporate elections on matters beyond politically contentious issues like climate change, such as directorships or executive pay.\"The new guidance, whether intentional or not, created a chilling effect on the largest investors,\" said Peter da Silva Vint, a former BlackRock executive now with corporate adviser Jasper Street Partners.Often fund managers come to meetings in \"listen-only mode,\" da Silva Vint said, which makes it harder for company leaders to tell how fund managers might vote.Surprises matter. While climate and social questions have taken up less bandwidth at corporate annual meetings lately, items on corporate governance continue to win support. Both Vanguard and BlackRock ended support for nearly all climate and social resolutions in previous years, a pattern that continued in 2025.TALK LESS, SMILE MOREThe new SEC guidance tells managers to file more complex, expensive forms to report major holdings if they exert \"pressure on management\" such as tying director votes, opens new tab to whether a company has a staggered board or undertakes certain environmental policies.The reporting requirement could also be triggered if the fund firm \"states or implies\" it will not support directors unless a company makes changes in line with a fund's voting policy.An SEC representative declined to comment.The shift mainly affected BlackRock and Vanguard, whose combined $22 trillion means both firms often own more than 5% of stock issuers, the filing threshold. The two firms paused and then resumed contact while taking stock of the new guidance.Now the fund firms' reports show a changed pattern. BlackRock's stewardship team, opens new tab met with companies worldwide 2,584 times during the 12 months ended June 30, a drop of 28% from the year-earlier period.Most of the proxy-related engagements would have happened after the Feb. 11 SEC guidance, said Paul Schulman, senior managing director for proxy solicitor Sodali. He called the guidance \"100% the cause\" of the meeting declines.Schulman said even when meetings occur, stewardship teams say less about how they plan to cast their proxy votes. Top investment firms \"have always been hesitant to disclose to the company how they’re going to vote. Now they're hesitant to signal their thinking on the issues,\" Schulman said.BlackRock has not given a quarterly count of its meetings. In its recent report, it said at the meetings its stewardship team \"listened to company directors and executives to understand how they are overseeing material business risks and opportunities,\" and that it may convey concerns through its AGM votes.Last year's report paints BlackRock's stewardship team as being more outspoken. Where it had concerns, the fund manager said at the time, \"we typically raise these through dialogue with board members and management teams first.\"Asked for comment, a BlackRock representative noted its past statement that \"does not use engagement as a way to control publicly traded companies.\"For Vanguard, an Aug. 21 report, opens new tab showed the Pennsylvania firm met with 356 companies worldwide from April through June this year, down 44% from the 640 in the same period in 2024. Vanguard's report didn't address the decline, and a representative declined to comment.A Vanguard representative said the company \"does not, and never has, used engagements with companies to signal our voting intentions.\"'MORE CHALLENGING' ENVIRONMENTPaul Washington, chief executive of the Society for Corporate Governance, which represents corporate secretaries and others, said the new guidance limits the value of shareholder talks.\"This season companies found it harder to know what their major investors were thinking,\" he said.In a survey, more than a quarter of public company society members said they found a \"more challenging engagement environment\" this year with companies having trouble maintaining relationships with investors or exploring their views.Reporting by Ross Kerber in Boston\nEditing by Nick ZieminskiOur Standards: The Thomson Reuters Trust Principles., opens new tabSuggested Topics:Climate & EnergyESG InvestorsSocial ImpactBoardsShareholder ActivismShareXFacebookLinkedinEmailLinkPurchase Licensing Rights<img src=\"https://www.reuters.com/resizer/v2/https%3A%2F%2Fcloudfront-us-east-2.images.arcpublishing.com%2Freuters%2FH24NV3AFCZCWPC463OG3JRYY7U.jpg?auth=4dd3566d980534ddab2fb815cfdf9f08e04ca3d4f4dd0c88f6e42931b1e77167&width=120&quality=80\" alt=\"Ross Kerber\" />Ross KerberThomson ReutersRoss Kerber is U.S. Sustainable Business Correspondent for Reuters News, a beat he created to cover investors’ growing concern for environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues, and the response from executives and policymakers.

Where it had concerns, the fund manager said at the time, \"we typically raise these through dialogue with board members and management teams first.\"Asked for comment, a BlackRock representative noted its past statement that \"does not use engagement as a way to control publicly traded companies.\"For Vanguard, an Aug. 21 report, opens new tab showed the Pennsylvania firm met with 356 companies worldwide from April through June this year, down 44% from the 640 in the same period in 2024. Vanguard's report didn't address the decline, and a representative declined to comment.A Vanguard representative said the company \"does not, and never has, used engagements with companies to signal our voting intentions.\"'MORE CHALLENGING' ENVIRONMENTPaul Washington, chief executive of the Society for Corporate Governance, which represents corporate secretaries and others, said the new guidance limits the value of shareholder talks.\"This season companies found it harder to know what their major investors were thinking,\" he said.In a survey, more than a quarter of public company society members said they found a \"more challenging engagement environment\" this year with companies having trouble maintaining relationships with investors or exploring their views.Reporting by Ross Kerber in Boston\nEditing by Nick ZieminskiOur Standards: The Thomson Reuters Trust Principles., opens new tabSuggested Topics:Climate & EnergyESG InvestorsSocial ImpactBoardsShareholder ActivismShareXFacebookLinkedinEmailLinkPurchase Licensing Rights<img src=\"https://www.reuters.com/resizer/v2/https%3A%2F%2Fcloudfront-us-east-2.images.arcpublishing.com%2Freuters%2FH24NV3AFCZCWPC463OG3JRYY7U.jpg?auth=4dd3566d980534ddab2fb815cfdf9f08e04ca3d4f4dd0c88f6e42931b1e77167&width=120&quality=80\" alt=\"Ross Kerber\" />Ross KerberThomson ReutersRoss Kerber is U.S. Sustainable Business Correspondent for Reuters News, a beat he created to cover investors’ growing concern for environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues, and the response from executives and policymakers.

Kent Nishimura | ReutersNvidia CEO Jensen Huang said that the company's $5 billion investment and technology collaboration with Intel comes after the two companies held discussions for nearly a year.Huang said that he communicated personally with Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan about the partnership. He called Tan a \"longtime friend\" on a Thursday call with reporters after the companies announced that Nvidia would co-develop data center and PC chips with Intel as part of the investment deal. On the call, Tan said he and Huang have known each other for 30 years.\"We thought it was going to be such an incredible investment,\" Huang said.Nvidia said it will collaborate with the chipmaker to create artificial intelligence systems for data centers that combine Intel's x86-based central processors with Nvidia's graphics processors and networking.Intel will also sell CPUs for PCs and notebooks that integrate Nvidia graphics processors, or GPUs.The transaction itself took a few months to come together, Intel's revenue chief Greg Ernst wrote in a LinkedIn post, adding that the agreement was reached on Saturday.The investment highlights how the fortunes of the two companies have switched atop Silicon Valley's pecking order as a result of the AI explosion ushered in by OpenAI's launch of ChatGPT in late 2022.Intel shares are down 31.78% in the last five years, while Nvidia shares are up 1,348% as of opening prices on Thursday. Nvidia is worth over $4.25 trillion, while Intel is only worth $143 billion.How Intel and Nvidia will collaborateFor decades, the most important part in a PC or server was the central processor, and Intel dominated the market for those chips. But AI infrastructure, like the machines in the $4 billion data center Microsoft announced on Thursday, often needs two or more Nvidia GPUs for every one CPU.Nvidia AI systems, like the NVL72 used by Microsoft, come with Arm-based CPUs, instead of Intel x86-based CPUs. On the call, Huang said Nvidia will soon support Intel's CPUs in its NVLink racks for AI.\"We'll buy those CPUs from from Intel, and then we'll connect it into super chips that then becomes our compute node, that then gets integrated into a rack scale AI supercomputer,\" Huang said.Nvidia will also contribute GPU technology to Intel chips that ship in laptops and PCs, which is an underserved market, Huang said. In total, the addressable markets for the two product collaborations are worth $50 billion, Huang said.\"We're going to become a very large customer of Intel CPUs, and we're going to be a large supplier of GPU chiplets into Intel\" chips, he said.Huang said the deal with Intel will have \"no\" impact on Nvidia's business relationship with Arm.Thursday's investment deal is focused on the relationship between Nvidia and Intel's product division, not its foundry. The two companies, however, did not rule out future foundry partnerships.\"We've always evaluated Intel's foundry technology, and we're going to continue to do it, but today, this announcement, is squarely focused on these custom CPUs,\" Huang said. Nvidia currently uses Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company to manufacture its chips.The collaboration will use Intel's packaging, which is a part chip manufacturing that occurs toward the end of the process and combines several chip components into a single part that can be installed in machines.Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan makes a speech on stage in Taipei, Taiwan May 19, 2025. Ann Wang | ReutersTan said he was grateful for Nvidia's vote of confidence.\"'I'd like to thank Jensen for the confidence in me, and our team and Intel will work really hard to make sure it's a good return for you,\" Tan said.Last year, Intel's board removed previous CEO Pat Gelsinger because of rising costs in its manufacturing business and the company's failure to gain a foothold in AI chips. In March, Intel named Tan, a well-connected investor who had turned around chip software firm Cadence Design Systems, its new chief executive.Tan has focused on cutting costs and raising money in his short tenure leading Intel even as the future of the company's manufacturing business, called Intel Foundry, remains unclear.In addition to the $5 billion from Nvidia and $8.9 billion from the U.S. government, Intel has taken a $2 billion investment from SoftBank, sold a majority stake in its ASIC subsidiary Altera to Silver Lake for $3.3 billion and sold $1 billion in stock from Mobileye, its self-driving car subsidiary.Intel has also cut significant staff, saying in July that it would eliminate 15% of its workforce by the end of the year.The company develops its own chips as well as manufacturing them. It wants to manufacture chips for companies like Nvidia or Apple, but has yet to secure them as customers. Analysts say Intel needs a big foundry client to signal that its technology is stable and ready for volume production.But cutting-edge chip manufacturing is expensive, and Intel has signaled that if it can't get enough customers, it may not continue investing in its foundry. That could spark a reaction from Washington, whose politicians and lobbyists consider Intel to be strategically important for the nation because it is the only American company capable of manufacturing the most advanced chips.The Trump administration took a 10% stake in Intel in August. Intel was previously in line to receive $8.9 billion in grants and loans from the CHIPS Act, but the Trump administration asked and received an equity stake in the chipmaker in exchange for the money.Huang was with Trump this week in England to attend a State Dinner at Windsor Palace and announce new projects and investments in the U.K. But the Trump administration wasn't involved in this deal, according to a White House official and Huang.\"Intel's new partnership with Nvidia is a major milestone for American high-tech manufacturing,\" White House spokesman Kush Desai said in a statement.-- CNBC's Megan Cassella contributed to this storyWATCH: Nvidia wants Intel's consumer business, says Deepwater's Gene Munsterwatch nowVIDEO3:2703:27Nvidia wants Intel's consumer business, says Deepwater's Gene MunsterThe Exchange","thumbnail":"/api/assets/scraped/thumb_scraped_jensen-huang-nvidia-ceo_1758561618702_r4ae09.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-18T18:37:11.000Z","tags":[],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://www.cnbc.com/2025/09/18/nvidias-huang-calls-5-billion-intel-stake-an-incredible-investment.html","author":"Kif Leswing@kifleswingWATCH LIVEKif Leswing@kifleswingKif Leswing@kifleswingKif Leswing@kifleswingKif Leswing@kifleswingKif Leswing@kifleswingKif Leswing@kifleswing","originalImageUrl":"https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/108200712-17582055012025-09-18t141517z_1604941985_rc2eugakg7bz_rtrmadp_0_intel-nvidia-stake.jpeg?v=1758205534&w=1920&h=1080","scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T17:20:18.776Z","isScraped":1},{"id":"143416de-7dff-4202-8b2e-0692b4a7bd71","outletId":"epic-games","title":"Epic Games Store Reveals 2 Free Games For September 25","summary":"The Epic Games Store reveals two free games for September 25, while allowing PC users to claim several other freebies in the meantime.","body":"Jorel’s Brother and The Most Important Game of the Galaxy and Eastern Exorcist are the Epic Games Store's free games for September 25.

action RPG developed by China-based Wildfire Game. It features distinctive hand-drawn visuals rooted in a classic Chinese ink painting style, delivering varied and vivid scenes. Though it wasn't hugely commercially successful, Eastern Exorcist accumulated hundreds of \"Very Positive\" Steam reviews since its 2021 release. While the PC version was never before free on the platform, the Epic Games Store did give way Eastern Exorcist to mobile users in March 2025. The PC original typically retails for $17.99. \n What Is Jorel’s Brother and The Most Important Game of the Galaxy?\n \nDeveloped by Double Dash Studios in collaboration with Copa Studio, Jorel’s Brother and The Most Important Game of the Galaxy is a comedic point-and-click adventure that serves as an adaptation of Brazilian animated series Jorel's Brother. It stars an eight-year-old boy living in the shadow of his popular older brother, featuring a story full of twists and eccentric characters. Jorel’s Brother and The Most Important Game of the Galaxy was originally released in an episodic format, though all three of its episodes are nowadays sold together, priced at $14.99. Like Eastern Exorcist, the 2023 point-and-click adventure boasts \"Very Positive\" Steam user reviews. While waiting for the final September 2025 freebies to go live, Epic Games Store users are able to claim Project Winter and Samorost 2. The former is a harsh survival game with distinctive multiplayer features that allows up to eight players to betray one another. Conversely, Samorost 2 is a surrealist adventure starring a gnome trying to save his kidnapped dog on a grand space adventure. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \t\n\t\n\t\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\n\n\t \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \t\n\t\n\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\tEpic Games Store\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\tSee at Official Site\n\t\n \n \n \n \n \n Expand\n Collapse","thumbnail":"/api/assets/scraped/thumb_scraped_8-epic-games_1758559126895_1cc5j.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-18T15:00:15.000Z","tags":["Epic Games Store","See at Official Site","Video Games","PC Gaming"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://gamerant.com/epic-games-store-september-25-2025-free-games-eastern-exorcist-jorel/","author":"By \n \n Dominik Bošnjak\n \n \n \n \n By \n \n Dominik Bošnjak\n \n Dominik Bošnjak\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t\t \n \n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n\n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n Dominik\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Dominik\n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n Dominik\n \n \n #EJ621583\n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Contributor\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n 0\n Threads\n \n \n \n 0\n Reviews\n \n \n 14\n Ratings\n \n \n \n \n 0\n Posts\n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n Following\n\n \n 0\n Stories\n \n \n 5\n Topics\n \n \n 0\n Authors\n \n \n 0\n Users\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Follow\n \n \n\n \n \n \n Followed\n \n \n \n 0 Followers \n \n \n View\n \n \n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 4 days ago\n \n \n Dominik\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Dominik\n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n Dominik\n \n \n #EJ621583\n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Contributor\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n 0\n Threads\n \n \n \n 0\n Reviews\n \n \n 14\n Ratings\n \n \n \n \n 0\n Posts\n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n Following\n\n \n 0\n Stories\n \n \n 5\n Topics\n \n \n 0\n Authors\n \n \n 0\n Users\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Follow\n \n \n\n \n \n \n Followed\n \n \n \n 0 Followers \n \n \n View\n \n \n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Dominik","originalImageUrl":"https://static0.gamerantimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/wm/2025/09/epic-games-store-new-free-games-tagline-over-zoom-blurred-eastern-exorcist-red-gameplay-screenshot.jpg?w=1600&h=900&fit=crop","scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T16:38:47.035Z","isScraped":1},{"id":"3f3a2f9f-0a02-471d-8019-0131c9b2bdc0","outletId":"larry-ellison","title":"Oracle's Larry Ellison made his $365 billion fortune by breaking every rule of wealth management","summary":"Larry Ellison's fortune is built on mountains of leverage and risk, allowing him to borrow against his shares and raise cash without giving up control.","body":"(function() {\n const userMembershipOnLastVisit = localStorage.getItem(\"cnbcMeta__cachedUserMembership\");\n if (!userMembershipOnLastVisit) {\n // If no user membership is stored, user is likely not logged in.\n // These users will typically see the banner.\n return;\n }\n\n const { isPro, isInvestingClubUser } = JSON.parse(userMembershipOnLastVisit);\n if (!(isPro || isInvestingClubUser)) {\n // We’re rendering the top banner for users who are not pro or investing club members.\n return;\n }\n\n // Hide the banner for pro and investing club users.\n const style = document.createElement(\"style\");\n style.id = \"top-banner-placeholder-style\";\n style.innerHTML = \"[data-top-banner-placeholder] { display: none; }\";\n document.head.appendChild(style);\n })()\n Sign up for the new Inside Alts newsletterFamily OfficesHigh-Net-Worth InvestingPhilanthropyAdvisory BoardNewsletter Sign-UpInside WealthOracle's Larry Ellison made his $365 billion fortune by breaking every rule of wealth managementPublished Thu, Sep 18 20258:27 AM EDTRobert Frank@robtfrankWATCH LIVEKey PointsLarry Ellison built the world's second-largest fortune by holding on to his Oracle shares over nearly five decades of ups and downs.At the same time, he's spent billions to fund his philanthropy, vast real estate holdings, sports investments and his son's fast-growing media empire.A close look at the Oracle chairman's finances and shareholdings reveals a fortune built on mountains of leverage and risk, allowing him to borrow against his shares and raise cash without giving up shares or control.

At the same time, he's spent billions to fund his philanthropy, vast real estate holdings, sports investments and his son's fast-growing media empire.How does he manage to spend so much while selling so little?A close look at the Oracle chairman's finances and shareholdings reveals a fortune built on mountains of leverage and risk, allowing him to borrow against his shares and raise cash without giving up shares or control. At a time when many tech CEOs are following their wealth managers' prudent advice to \"take money off the table\" and diversify through share sale programs, Ellison represents a triumph of old-school, go-for-broke wealth creation, even at the age of 81.\"Ellison does seem to stand out, not just for his wealth but for the sheer size of his pledged shares,\" said Michael Sury, associate professor of practice in finance and managing director for the Center for Analytics and Transformative Technologies at the University of Texas at Austin. According to SEC filings, Ellison owned 1.16 billion shares of Oracle stock as of July, representing 41% of the company's total outstanding shares. His individual share ownership is far and away the largest of any of the top 10 tech billionaires. Elon Musk, for instance, owns less than 20% of Tesla, while Mark Zuckerberg owns about 14% of Meta shares and Jeff Bezos' stake in Amazon is down to about 8% of shares outstanding after selling more than $18 billion worth in the past two years.Get Inside Wealth directly to your inboxThe Inside Wealth newsletter by Robert Frank is your weekly guide to high-net-worth investors and the industries that serve them.Subscribe here to get access today. Ellison has sold Oracle shares over the years, but mostly to exercise options and pay taxes. According to Smart Insider, Ellison has net a total of $5.1 billion from selling shares – representing a fraction of his stake, now worth over $350 billion. The sales included $900 million of shares he sold in 2001, right before the stock plunged on a disappointing earnings report, which sparked an insider trading lawsuit and eventual settlement.Oracle has also done its part to turbocharge Ellison's equity stake. According to Barron's, Oracle's share repurchase program has reduced the number of outstanding shares by 36% over the past 15 years. The drop in outstanding shares has boosted Ellison's stake from 23% of outstanding shares to 41%, even though his number of shares has remained stable.Still, Ellison has continued to spend record sums on real estate, sports, collectibles and other assets. His personal empire includes dozens of luxury properties, the Indian Wells tennis tournament, the Hawaiian resort island of Lanai, a collection of vintage fighter jets, a 288-foot mega-yacht and the Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa in Manalapan, Florida, which he bought for $277 million last year. The purchase came after he paid $173 million for the 62,200-square-foot mansion in Manalapan that marked the highest-ever sale price at the time for Florida real estate. Ellison has also funded a vast array of private companies. He invested in Elon Musk's purchase of Twitter, now called X, offering Musk \"a billion or whatever you recommend,\" according to a text exchange that was later made public. Ellison has also invested in several longevity and tech startups, and he co-founded global sailing league SailGP.More recently, Ellison has emerged as a behind-the-scenes media magnate. He backed Skydance Media, run by his son David, in its purchase of Paramount for $8 billion, a merger that closed last month. Now, the Ellison family is reportedly backing Paramount's largely cash bid for Warner Bros. Discovery in what could be a more than $70 billion deal. Oracle is also among the companies teaming up to buy TikTok's U.S. operations, although it's unclear whether Ellison himself would personally invest.Ellison has also given hundreds of millions of dollars to philanthropy and made headlines last year as part of an NIL deal for University of Michigan football recruit Bryce Underwood that was reportedly worth $10 million. A signer of The Giving Pledge, Ellison posted on X in July that he will be \"concentrating his resources\" on the new Ellison Institute of Technology, a partnership with the University of Oxford to find solutions to climate change, disease and world hunger. To fund all that spending and still maintain his stake in Oracle, Ellison borrows heavily against his Oracle shares. According to the most recent SEC filing, Ellison has pledged 277 million shares of Oracle common stock as collateral \"to secure certain personal indebtedness.\" The shares represent about a quarter of his total Oracle shares and would have a market value of more than $82 billion on Wednesday's closing price.Stock Chart IconStock chart iconOracle stock over the trailing 3 months.Most companies prevent or limit executives from borrowing against their shares to avoid a forced sale during a crisis or share decline. Oracle, however, has given its chairman and largest shareholder more leeway. Oracle's governance committee stated in an SEC filing that it \"believes that Mr. Ellison's pledging arrangements do not pose a material risk to stockholders or to Oracle in part because the pledged shares secure personal term loans only used to fund outside personal business ventures.\" The board said it also believes that Ellison \"has the financial capacity to repay his personal term loans without resorting to the pledged shares.\"Sury said the size and value of Ellison's pledged shares is \"off the charts,\" and that most boards would never allow that degree of leverage because of the risks to shareholders.\"Ellison is an exception,\" Sury said. \"His wealth and influence make lenders comfortable in a way they would not be with most executives. For many other companies this level of borrowing would raise real governance concerns and likely be viewed as a red flag.\"It's unclear how much Ellison has drawn down on the loans. In a rare comment on his borrowing and spending strategy, Ellison told CNBC in 2012 that a $4 billion line of credit against his shares at the time was never drawn down but kept as potential dry powder for big purchases.\"I've got a line of credit just in case I go shopping and something catches my eye,\" he said, mentioning the NBA's Los Angeles Lakers as a potential example if they came up for sale.Ellison's hold-and-borrow strategy stands in stark contrast to the sales of Oracle CEO Safra Catz. Catz has continued to sell the options she receives from Oracle as they vest, maintaining a small stake in the company. She exercised and sold options totaling $2.5 billion in the first half of the year, making her the largest insider seller of the year, according to Smart Insider. She sold through a so-called 10b5-1 program, which is a pre-scheduled share sale program, and missed out on the 50% run-up in Oracle stock in the months following.Bankers and wealth advisors to tech founders and CEOs say there is no right or wrong approach to managing a large stock position in a company.\"It all depends on the person,\" said Solenn Séguillon, technology practice head at J.P. Morgan Private Bank in San Francisco, who works with many top tech founders and CEOs. \"Everyone has a different comfort level in handling single-stock volatility.\"Most tech founders and CEOs, she said, are bullish on their own companies and want to hold onto their stakes as long as possible to grow their wealth. At the same time, they typically want to fund other tech ventures launched by friends or colleagues. Borrowing against their shares not only provides cash, but also potential tax benefits, since they can often deduct the interest on the loans if the proceeds are used for investments.While some see share pledges and loans as compounding risk, Séguillon said it can be a form of diversification if the loans are used to fund outside investments.\"Borrowing to invest in a number of assets that are accretive or private companies or a more diversified portfolio can help build a hedge,\" she said. \"We discuss with our clients how to be mindful of the risks so they don't end up in a situation where they're over-levered.\" When lending to CEOs or founders with concentrated positions, private banks and wealth management firms say they look at a client's entire balance sheet rather than just the stock position.Kurt Niemeyer, head of Merrill Lending Solutions group, which offers complex loans to the ultra-wealthy, said a loan to a founder or CEO might include a wide range of collateral, such as real estate, art or even a yacht.\"The larger loans are more focused on the entire balance sheet,\" he said.More In Inside WealthFamily offices are still keen on direct deals but retreat from

\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n \n Vice President JD Vance on Wednesday doubled down on his criticism of the left in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, saying the First Amendment does not protect those who allegedly celebrated Kirk’s death from consequences and reaffirming that the White House will go after left-leaning organizations that it claims are inciting violence.\n \n\n \n “The First Amendment protects a lot of very ugly speech but if you celebrate … Charlie Kirk’s death, you should not be protected from being fired for being a disgusting person,” Vance told Fox News. “If you are a university professor who benefits from American tax dollars, you should not be celebrating Charlie Kirk’s death and if you are, maybe you should lose your job or your university should, should face a loss of funding.”\n \n\n \n Vance added, “If you are the kind of person who thinks that Charlie Kirk was justifiably murdered, sometimes the government can’t do anything about that. But you know what can — is, is civil society and I’ve actually been gratified to see all these people standing up and saying, ‘Yes, we have free speech and yes, we have free debate, but if you’re, if you’re celebrating the death of a young father, you ought to pay some consequences for it.’”\n \n\n \n The First Amendment does not universally protect people from professional consequences for saying something offensive. But in the aftermath of Kirk’s assassination, the Trump administration has indicated it intends to target liberal groups for investigation or other actions — which critics see as an effort to stifle free speech and dissent.\n \n\n \n Attorney General Pam Bondi earlier this week said the government would “target” those who use hate speech, though she later appeared to walk those comments back. Vance’s comments, particularly his threats on federal funding for universities, reflect how the administration could use the levers of government to advance that effort.\n \n\n \n\n\n\n \n Related article\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n President Donald Trump walks to speak with reporters on the South Lawn as he departs the White House, on September 11, 2025.\n \n\n Julia Demaree Nikhinson/AP\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n Trump wants to target liberal groups and protesters with a decades-old law once used against the mob\n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n \n Vance went on to say that there have been conversations within the administration on targeting organizations that he claims fund left-wing political violence.\n \n\n \n “We are working very hard to ensure that the funding networks for left-wing violence, that the radicalization networks for left-wing violence — that if you encourage or fund your fellow Americans or anybody else to commit acts of violence because you disagree with political speech, you are going to be treated like a terrorist organization and we are going to go after you,” the vice president said.\n \n\n \n Vance’s remarks aired as President Donald Trump announced he will designate Antifa, a far-left anti-fascism movement, as a terrorist organization.\n \n\n \n He also echoed Trump’s comments from last week that left-wing radicals “are the problem,” implying that right-wing radicals are not.\n \n\n \n “The idea that left-wing violence and right-wing violence in 2025 in America are equal, it’s preposterous,” Vance said Wednesday.\n \n\n \n When asked about calls from Democrats to lower the temperature, Vance said, “Yes, absolutely, by all means, let’s take down the temperature. But if you want to take down the temperature and you’re on the left of center, the first and most important thing you can do is look in the mirror.”\n \n\n \n The vice president shared in the interview that he was the one who told Trump about Kirk’s passing.\n \n\n \n “The president is very stoic, but he was clearly upset,” Vance said of Trump’s response to the news. “He just kind of went quiet and let it absorb a little bit and then just shook his head and said ‘Man, he is — he was a good guy and we really loved him.’”\n \n\n \n Vance also credited Kirk for supporting him through his political career, saying, “I would not be the Vice President of the United States were it not for Charlie Kirk.”\n \n\n \n “Aside from Donald Trump, I can’t think of a single person who deserves more credit,” Vance said, pointing to Kirk’s support during his Senate primary and in advocating for Vance to be the vice-presidential nominee.\n \n\n \n When asked if he supports televising the trial of Tyler Robinson, the suspect in Kirk’s shooting, Vance said, “that strikes me as a good idea.”\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n JD Vance\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n Donald Trump\n

These new x86 RTX SOCs will power a wide range of PCs that demand integration of world-class CPUs and GPUs.\n\nNVIDIA will invest $5 billion in Intel’s common stock at a purchase price of $23.28 per share. The investment is subject to customary closing conditions, including required regulatory approvals.\n\n“AI is powering a new industrial revolution and reinventing every layer of the computing stack — from silicon to systems to software. At the heart of this reinvention is NVIDIA’s CUDA architecture,” said NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang. “This historic collaboration tightly couples NVIDIA’s AI and accelerated computing stack with Intel’s CPUs and the vast x86 ecosystem — a fusion of two world-class platforms. Together, we will expand our ecosystems and lay the foundation for the next era of computing.”\n\n“Intel’s x86 architecture has been foundational to modern computing for decades — and we are innovating across our portfolio to enable the workloads of the future,” said Lip-Bu Tan, CEO of Intel. “Intel’s leading data center and client computing platforms, combined with our process technology, manufacturing and advanced packaging capabilities, will complement NVIDIA’s AI and accelerated computing leadership to enable new breakthroughs for the industry. We appreciate the confidence Jensen and the NVIDIA team have placed in us with their investment and look forward to the work ahead as we innovate for customers and grow our business.”\n\nPress Conference: The CEOs of NVIDIA and Intel will conduct a webcast press conference at 10 a.m. Pacific time (1 p.m. Eastern time) today to discuss the announcement.

Kushner, the son-in-law of President Donald Trump who served as a senior advisor in his first-term Cabinet, has recently joined the ranks of America's billionaire class, according to Forbes.This week, the business outlet estimated that his net worth now stands at just over $1 billion, up from $900 million in 2024. Forbes attributed this to real estate investments, \"new funding from his Middle Eastern backers,\" as well as the recent success of Affinity Partners, the private equity firm Kushner founded in 2021.Newsweek has contacted Kushner via Affinity Partners through their website for comment.Why It MattersThe U.S. is home to 902 billionaires according to the most recent tally from Forbes, up from the 813 billionaires it counted in 2024. Despite this growth, what Forbes calls the \"three-comma-club\" remains an exclusive one.What To KnowAs Forbes reports, Kushner's journey to achieving billionaire status has been marked by a number of prescient investments and risky bets through Affinity Partners, which he founded shortly after leaving his White House position and continues to maintain complete ownership of.\n\nBusinessman and former Senior Advisor to the President Donald Trump Jared Kushner (L) and U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff chat on the tarmac on July 13, 2025 in Teterboro, New Jersey.\nBusinessman and former Senior Advisor to the President Donald Trump Jared Kushner (L) and U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff chat on the tarmac on July 13, 2025 in Teterboro, New Jersey.\nChip Somodevilla/Getty Images\n function toggleCap(sourceEvent){const siblings=sourceEvent.parentNode.children;const shortDesc=siblings[\"short-cap-description\"];const fullDesc=siblings[\"full-cap-description\"];const readMoreBtn=sourceEvent;if(fullDesc.style.display==='none'){shortDesc.style.display='none';fullDesc.style.display='inline';readMoreBtn.textContent='Less'}else{shortDesc.style.display='inline';fullDesc.style.display='none';readMoreBtn.textContent='More'}} Affinity has spent around $250 million purchasing a 10-percent stake in the Israeli financial services firm Phoenix, which Kushner called \"the JPMorgan of Israel.\" Kushner told Forbes that the investment has already brought in a return of more than nine times the initial outlay.Kushner has been able to raise a total of $4.6 billion in funding for Affinity, according to Forbes, thanks in part to sizeable inputs from the Qatari sovereign wealth fund and Lunate, a subsidiary of the business empire of Tahnoun bin Zayed Al Nahyan, National Security Advisor for the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and brother to the current UAE president.Affinity is currently worth $215 million, up from $170 million last October. Kushner also holds a stake worth around $560 million in Kushner Companies, the real estate business founded by his father, Charles Kushner, whom Trump pardoned during his first term following a 2005 conviction for falsifying tax returns, witness tampering, and making false statements to the Federal Election Commission (FEC).Forbes also notes that the Florida home that Kushner shares with his wife, Ivanka Trump, has more than tripled in value since it was purchased in 2020.\n\nU.S. President Donald Trump, joined by his granddaughter Arabella Kushner and Jared Kushner, salutes as they listen to the national anthem on the last day of the U.S. Open tennis tournament in New York City...\nU.S. President Donald Trump, joined by his granddaughter Arabella Kushner and Jared Kushner, salutes as they listen to the national anthem on the last day of the U.S. Open tennis tournament in New York City on September 7, 2025. \nMore\nCharly Triballeau/AFP via Getty Images\n function toggleCap(sourceEvent){const siblings=sourceEvent.parentNode.children;const shortDesc=siblings[\"short-cap-description\"];const fullDesc=siblings[\"full-cap-description\"];const readMoreBtn=sourceEvent;if(fullDesc.style.display==='none'){shortDesc.style.display='none';fullDesc.style.display='inline';readMoreBtn.textContent='Less'}else{shortDesc.style.display='inline';fullDesc.style.display='none';readMoreBtn.textContent='More'}} Kushner has now joined the \"three-comma-club\" alongside his brother Josh, who boasts a net worth of $5.2 billion, as well as his father-in-law.President Trump's net worth was estimated at $4.3 billion last year, a figure that has soared to $7.3 billion in 2025 thanks in part to his recent cryptocurrency ventures, pushing him to number 201 in Forbes's latest annual rankings of the richest Americans.What People Are SayingJared Kushner, speaking to Forbes about the evolution of Affinity Partners, said: \"When we started, we were trying to find our positioning in the space. But now we've established ourselves as a go-to partner.\"What Happens Next?Kushner said that his company Affinity has a number of deals in the pipeline, including plans to invest in an undisclosed Mexican infrastructure company, though he added that the plan has been delayed by President Trump's tariffs. doFir.push(function(){document.addEventListener(\"DOMContentLoaded\",function(event){let uncommonKnowledgeItems=document.querySelectorAll('.uncommon-list');if(uncommonKnowledgeItems.length>0){let uncommonKnowledgeContainerHtml='<div class=\"uncommon-knowledge\">\\\n <div class=\"logo-text\">\\\n <span><i class=\"uncommon-logo\"></i></span>\\\n <div class=\"text-content\">\\\n <h2>Uncommon Knowledge</h2>\\\n <p class=\"subtitle-desktop\">Newsweek is committed to challenging conventional wisdom and finding connections in the search for common ground.</p>\\\n </div>\\\n </div>\\\n <p class=\"subtitle-mobile\">Newsweek is committed to challenging conventional wisdom and finding connections in the search for common ground.</p>\\\n <div id=\"uncommon-knowledge-items-container\" class=\"owl-carousel owl-theme start-slider\">\\\n </div>\\\n </div>';uncommonKnowledgeItems[0].insertAdjacentHTML('afterend',uncommonKnowledgeContainerHtml);let uncommonKnowledgeContainerElement=document.getElementsByClassName('uncommon-knowledge');let itemsContainerElement=document.getElementById('uncommon-knowledge-items-container');uncommonKnowledgeContainerElement[0].style.display='block';uncommonKnowledgeItems.forEach((itemUncommon)=>{document.getElementById('uncommon-knowledge-items-container').insertAdjacentHTML('beforeend','<div class=\"uncommon-list-item\">'+itemUncommon.innerHTML+'</div>');itemUncommon.remove()});jQuery('.start-slider').owlCarousel({loop:!1,margin:10,nav:!0,items:1}).on('changed.owl.carousel',function(event){var currentItem=event.item.index;var totalItems=event.item.count;if(currentItem===0){jQuery('.owl-prev').addClass('disabled')}else{jQuery('.owl-prev').removeClass('disabled')}\nif(currentItem===totalItems-1){jQuery('.owl-next').addClass('disabled')}else{jQuery('.owl-next').removeClass('disabled')}})}})})","thumbnail":"/api/assets/scraped/thumb_scraped_jared-kushner_1758561600875_oh68o.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-17T17:13:42.000Z","tags":[],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://www.newsweek.com/jared-kushner-joins-billionaire-club-donald-trump-2131421","author":"Hugh Cameron Hugh Cameron","originalImageUrl":"https://d.newsweek.com/en/full/2724572/jared-kushner.jpg","scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T17:20:01.083Z","isScraped":1},{"id":"5373dc5b-59ed-4e4e-9af5-1ad2832a3ae2","outletId":"j-star","title":"Fed meeting recap: Fed Chair Powell calls quarter-point trim a 'risk management cut'","summary":"The Federal Reserve on Wednesday lowered interest rates by a quarter point, and expects two rate cuts could be made by the year's end.","body":"(function() {\n const userMembershipOnLastVisit = localStorage.getItem(\"cnbcMeta__cachedUserMembership\");\n if (!userMembershipOnLastVisit) {\n // If no user membership is stored, user is likely not logged in.\n // These users will typically see the banner.\n return;\n }\n\n const { isPro, isInvestingClubUser } = JSON.parse(userMembershipOnLastVisit);\n if (!(isPro || isInvestingClubUser)) {\n // We’re rendering the top banner for users who are not pro or investing club members.\n return;\n }\n\n // Hide the banner for pro and investing club users.\n const style = document.createElement(\"style\");\n style.id = \"top-banner-placeholder-style\";\n style.innerHTML = \"[data-top-banner-placeholder] { display: none; }\";\n document.head.appendChild(style);\n })()\n Updated Wed, Sep 17 20254:07 PM EDTShareShare Article via FacebookShare Article via TwitterShare Article via LinkedInShare Article via EmailFed meeting recap: Fed Chair Powell calls quarter-point trim a 'risk management cut' Christina Cheddar BerkThe Federal Reserve gave investors a lot to chew on Wednesday as the central bank lowered the benchmark overnight lending rate by a quarter percentage point and indicated two more rate cuts could be made by the year's end.While this latest decision had only one dissent, newly appointed Fed governor Stephen Miran, opinions diverge further heading into next year. At the moment, the so-called dot-plot predicts one more quarter-point cut next year. However, some members of the rate-setting Federal Open Market Committee see a path to three rate reductions in the coming year.During a news conference, Fed Chair Jerome Powell said Wednesday's decision reflects a desire to keep risks to the economy in check.\"You can think of this, in a way, as a risk management cut,\" Powell said. He added that a \"very different picture\" of risks has emerged as the labor market has begun to cool off versus the threats on the inflation front.The central bank had been holding firm on interest rates as inflation has remained above the Federal Reserve's 2% target. Powell has expressed concern that tariffs put in place by the Trump administration could led prices to surge.The Fed chair said companies have been slow to pass costs from the levies on to consumers, but he expects the impact will build \"over the course of the rest of the year and into next year.Wed, Sep 17 20253:29 PM EDTInflation for goods prices 'to continue to build' over rest of this year and 2026, Powell saysU.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell speaks during a press conference following the issuance of the Federal Open Market Committee's statement on interest rate policy, in Washington, D.C., U.S., Sept. 17, 2025. Elizabeth Frantz | ReutersFederal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell warned on Wednesday that he expects the effects of inflation on goods prices \"to continue to build\" through the rest of this year and into 2026, shortly after the monetary policymaker cut interest rates by a quarter percentage point. \"We have begun to see goods prices showing through into higher inflation, and actually the increase in goods prices accounts for most of the increase in inflation, or perhaps all of the increase in inflation over the course of this year,\" Powell said in a press conference.He added, \"those are not very large effects at this point, and we do expect them to continue to build over the course of the rest of the year and into next year.\"CPI rose 2.9% on an annual basis last month, marking the largest gain since January. Since April, inflation has mostly accelerated on a month-to-month basis.

Jim Watson | AFP | Getty ImagesFed Chair Jerome Powell said President Donald Trump's tariffs have mainly appeared to be covered by importing companies, meaning consumers haven't seen major price increases tied to the levies yet.\"To the consumer, the passthrough has been pretty small,\" Powell said. \"It's been ... slower and smaller than we thought.\"To be sure, Powell noted that companies have said they eventually plan to pass more of the cost increases onto shoppers, which can result in higher price tags.— Alex HarringWed, Sep 17 20253:13 PM EDTPowell says job market doesn't need to soften furtherFed Chair Jerome Powell said he doesn't prefer that the labor market loosen any further.\"The labor market is softening and we don't need it to soften anymore (and) don't want it to,\" Powell said.Powell cited rising unemployment among minorities as one reason for concern.— Alex HarringWed, Sep 17 20252:57 PM EDTPowell says no 'widespread support' for larger rate cutJerome Powell, chairman of the US Federal Reserve, during a news conference following a Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting in Washington, DC, US, on Wednesday, Sept. 17, 2025. Kent Nishimura | Bloomberg | Getty ImagesDespite President Donald Trump's demand for more aggressive action from the Federal Reserve, Chair Jerome Powell said there was little support for large rate cuts at this week's meeting.\"There wasn't widespread support at all for a 50 basis point,\" Powell said at his post-meeting news conference. \"I think we've done very large rate hikes and very large rate cuts in the last five years, and we tend to do those at a time when you feel that policy is out of place and needs to move quickly to a new place. That's not at all what I feel certainly now, I feel like our policy has been doing the right thing so far this year.\"The Fed instead opted for a quarter-percentage point reduction.—Jeff CoxWed, Sep 17 20252:52 PM EDTPowell: View this as a 'risk management cut'Fed Chair Jerome Powell described Wednesday's interest rate decrease as a way to keep risk in check.\"You can think of this, in a way, as a risk management cut,\" Powell said.Powell added that there's a \"very different picture\" of risks tied to the labor market and that it is \"really cooling off.\"— Alex HarringWed, Sep 17 20252:50 PM EDTOne cut projected for 2026, but many differing opinions among FOMC membersOne surprise out of the Federal Reserve's meeting was that only one rate cut is projected in 2026. But opinions on this path are varied with two voting members seeing as many as four cuts. A single quarter-point reduction next year is significantly more conservative than current market pricing. Traders are currently pricing in at two to three more rate cuts next year, according to the CME Group's FedWatch tool, updated shortly after the decision.Click here to read more from Yun Li about the closely watched \"dot plot.\" —Christina Cheddar Berk, Yun LiWed, Sep 17 20252:43 PM EDTData shows softening labor market, rising inflationU.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell speaks during a press conference following the issuance of the Federal Open Market Committee's statement on interest rate policy, in Washington, D.C., U.S., Sept. 17, 2025.

Although that's not the rate consumers pay, the Fed's move will pave the way for relief from some of the high borrowing costs that have weighed on consumers.Credit cards, for example, have a variable rate, so there's a direct connection to the Fed's benchmark. Mortgage rates, on the other hand, are more influenced by Treasury yields and the economy so there's less of an immediate impact.Here's the breakdown of all of the ways the Fed's decision to lower its benchmark could affect your finances in the months ahead.— Jessica DicklerWed, Sep 17 20252:13 PM EDTSee what changed in the new Fed statementIn its statement, the Fed acknowledged slight increases in the unemployment rate and a \"shift\" in the balance of risks.

How divided a decision?U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell leaves after a press conference following the issuance of the Federal Open Market Committee's statement on interest rate policy in Washington, D.C., U.S., July 30, 2025. Jonathan Ernst | ReutersWith signs of the labor market weakening, the Federal Reserve is widely expected to reduce its benchmark interest rate by a quarter-point, or 25 basis points. However, there are some who want the central bank to go further faster.The critical questions investors will want to answer are: How far will interest rates fall this year and how divided is the central bank?The July meeting was notable for its two dissenters, Governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman. This time around the tension could be heightened even further. President Donald Trump has appointed Stephen Miran to the group. Miran, who replaced Adriana Kugler, has been a Fed critic and he is expected to push for deep cuts.If the majority opts to ease rates by 25 basis points, it is possible Waller and Bowman will once again dissent. This time, joined by Miran.In addition, there also could be pressure to keep the benchmark rate steady between 4.25% and 4.50%. That could put two other Federal Open Market Committee members in the opposition.

Yields on savings accounts are also currently higher: 0.4% as of Sept. 12, versus the 0.06% paid in March 2022, per the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC.Rates haven't been so great for borrowers, however, even as the Fed cut by a full point in 2024. The average rate on a 30-year mortgage stood at 6.29% last week, compared with 4.29% in March 2022, according to Mortgage News Daily.

With the market so sure that a rate cut is coming, some have suggested Wednesday's news could put pressure on stocks. \"As we look toward month-end, Fed Day may act as a 'sell-the-news' event as investors take time to consider the Fed future reaction function, potentially stretched positioning, a temporarily weaker corporate buyback bid, waning Retail investor participation, and quarter-end rebalancing,\" JPMorgan's trading desk wrote. Others fear the interest rate cut will itself do more harm than good, with longtime market watcher Ed Yardeni saying it's \"throwing gasoline on a fire.\"He's in the camp that believes the economy is still on solid footing even as inflation has remained above the central bank's 2% target and job growth has slowed. —Christina Cheddar Berk, Fred Imbert","thumbnail":"/api/assets/scraped/thumb_scraped_jerome-powell_1758561626827_lo2mu.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-17T16:58:53.000Z","tags":[],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://www.cnbc.com/2025/09/17/fed-meeting-today-live-updates.html","author":"Christina Cheddar BerkChristina Cheddar BerkChristina Cheddar BerkChristina Cheddar BerkChristina Cheddar BerkChristina Cheddar Berk","originalImageUrl":"https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/108200161-1758133969106-gettyimages-2235408551-AFP_74VN3TQ.jpeg?v=1758134015&w=1920&h=1080","scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T17:20:26.968Z","isScraped":1},{"id":"a3766158-657b-416c-bd90-89c56ca7757c","outletId":"j-star","title":"Nvidia CEO says he's 'disappointed' after report China has banned its AI chips","summary":"Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang commented after a report that China has banned the use of the company's AI chips.","body":"(function() {\n const userMembershipOnLastVisit = localStorage.getItem(\"cnbcMeta__cachedUserMembership\");\n if (!userMembershipOnLastVisit) {\n // If no user membership is stored, user is likely not logged in.\n // These users will typically see the banner.\n return;\n }\n\n const { isPro, isInvestingClubUser } = JSON.parse(userMembershipOnLastVisit);\n if (!(isPro || isInvestingClubUser)) {\n // We’re rendering the top banner for users who are not pro or investing club members.\n return;\n }\n\n // Hide the banner for pro and investing club users.\n const style = document.createElement(\"style\");\n style.id = \"top-banner-placeholder-style\";\n style.innerHTML = \"[data-top-banner-placeholder] { display: none; }\";\n document.head.appendChild(style);\n })()\n TechNvidia CEO says he's 'disappointed' after report China has banned its AI chipsPublished Wed, Sep 17 20258:29 AM EDTUpdated Wed, Sep 17 202511:38 AM EDTRyan Browne@Ryan_Browne_WATCH LIVEKey PointsNvidia CEO Jensen Huang commented after a Financial Times report that China has banned the use of the company's AI chips.The Trump administration in August agreed a deal under which Nvidia would receive export licenses for its H20 AI chips in exchange for 15% of its China sales.However, the FT reported Wednesday that China has urged its domestic tech firms not to use Nvidia's AI chips.Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang holds a Blackwell GeForce RTX 50 Series GPU (L) and a RTX 5000 laptop as he delivers a keynote address at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, Nevada on January 6, 2025. Patrick T. Fallon | Afp | Getty ImagesLONDON — Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has weighed in on the U.S. tech giant's struggles in China after a report claimed the country has banned its artificial intelligence chips.Huang said he was \"disappointed\" after the Financial Times on Wednesday reported that the Cyberspace Administration of China had ordered companies including TikTok parent company ByteDance and Alibaba not to buy Nvidia's RTX Pro 6000D, a chip that was made for the country.In response to a question on the FT report, Huang said Wednesday that \"we can only be in service of a market if the country wants us to be.\"\"We probably contributed more to the China market than most countries have. And I'm disappointed with what I see,\" Huang said. \"But they have larger agendas to work out between China and the United States, and I'm understanding of that.\"It comes after a tumultuous few years for Nvidia's business in China, which Huang described as \"a bit of a roller coaster.\"\"We've guided all financial analysts not to include China\" in financial forecasts, Huang told reporters Wednesday at a press briefing in London. \"The reason for that is because that's largely going to be within the discussions of the United States government and Chinese government.\"watch nowVIDEO3:3303:33House Speaker Mike Johnson: China is straining U.S. relations with Nvidia chip banSquawk BoxPreviously, the U.S. had imposed restrictions on exports of Nvidia's AI chips to China — including a less powerful server chip called the H20 — over national security concerns.However, in August, the White House announced that President Donald Trump and Huang had struck a deal under which Nvidia would receive export licenses in exchange for 15% of Chinese sales of the H20 going to the U.S. government.The latest news Wednesday represents yet another blow to Nvidia's China business.

However, the economy’s path forward looks murky, according to the central bank’s leader.\n \n\n \n The Fed cut its benchmark lending rate by a quarter point to a new range of 4% to 4.25%. It’s the first rate cut of President Donald Trump’s second term, following a nine-month pause prompted by the uncertainty surrounding the administration’s major policy shifts.\n \n\n \n But the economy’s future remains up in the air, Fed Chair Jerome Powell told reporters at a press conference following the conclusion of the Fed’s monetary policy meeting. “It’s not incredibly obvious what to do,” he said.\n \n\n \n Still, the Fed moved forward with a “risk management cut,” as Powell characterized it, because central bankers can’t wait around forever for the effects of Trump’s policies to become crystal clear.\n \n\n \n “We have to live life looking through the windshield rather than the rearview mirror,” Powell said.\n \n\n \n The Fed’s latest decision wasn’t unanimous: Fed Governor Stephen Miran, a Trump appointee sworn in right before the Fed’s meeting began on Tuesday, dissented, backing a larger, half-point rate cut.\n \n\n \n\n\n\n \n Related live story\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell speaks during a news conference following the Federal Open Market Committee meeting, Wednesday, Sept. 17, 2025, at the Federal Reserve Board Building in Washington. (AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin)\n \n\n Jacquelyn Martin/AP\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n Fed announces first rate cut in nine months, signals more reductions to come\n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n \n Fed officials penciled in an additional rate cut later in the year, according to their updated economic projections, compared to the two cuts in 2025 they estimated in June. That would mean the Fed could deliver another quarter-point cut at its October meeting, then another in December.\n \n\n \n However, their projections for unemployment and inflation this year were unchanged compared to their June estimates.\n \n\n \n Here are some takeaways from the Fed’s latest decision and Powell’s news conference.\n \n\n \n Powell on the labor market and inflation\n\n\n \n Powell made it clear that growing risks to the labor market were a key reason why the Fed finally lowered rates, even though there’s also a risk of Trump’s tariffs pushing up prices.\n \n\n \n The Fed chief characterized the labor market as one of “low hiring and low firing.”\n \n\n \n Powell pointed to high unemployment among young people as a consequence of today’s low hiring environment. The Fed noted in its policy statement that “downside risks to employment have risen.”\n \n\n \n “The concern is that if you start to see layoffs, there won’t be a lot of hiring going on,” Powell said.\n \n\n \n America’s central bankers remain in a tough spot, with both sides of their dual mandate — stable prices and maximum employment — under threat.\n \n\n \n Inflation of goods exposed to tariffs, such as furniture and appliances, have begun to climb in recent months, according to economic data. Powell said the impact of tariffs on prices has not had a “very large effect at this point,” but that the full extent of those effects remains to be seen.\n \n\n \n But in the end, it was the labor market’s future that was top of mind for Fed officials.\n \n\n \n “There really is meaningful downside risk” to the labor market, Powell said. “But let’s remember there’s a 4.3% unemployment rate and the economy is growing at 1.5%, so it’s not a bad economy.”\n \n\n \n Powell suggested that the Fed isn’t behind the curve, given that Wednesday’s decision is functioning as an insurance policy to defend against future weakness in the labor market.\n \n\n \n Powell on Miran and Fed independence\n\n\n \n The Fed’s latest decision was pivotal, but the elephant in the room was Trump’s aggressive efforts to reshape the central bank’s top ranks.\n \n\n \n The first question Powell was asked was about Miran’s arrival at the Fed, specifically whether his arrangement of serving as a Fed governor while remaining an employee of the White House means anything for Fed independence.\n \n\n \n “So, we did welcome a new committee member today and, as we always do, the committee remains united in pursuing our dual mandate goals,” Powell said. “We’re strongly committed to maintaining our independence and beyond that, I really don’t have anything to share.”\n \n\n \n\n\n\n \n Related article\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell at a news conference in Washington, DC, on March 19.\n \n\n Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n The most extraordinary Fed meeting yet has just kicked off\n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n \n As Fed officials contend with a complicated economic puzzle, the central bank’s powerful Board has seen some unprecedented developments in recent months. The future of Fed Governor Lisa Cook remains up in the air as she challenges Trump’s attempt to fire her in the courts. In late August, Trump said he fired her, citing unproven allegations of mortgage fraud, which the Justice Department is actively investigating.\n \n\n \n Meanwhile, Miran is a new voice at the Fed who is supportive of more aggressive rate cuts.\n \n\n \n The Fed’s so-called dot plot — a graph of Fed officials’ estimates for their benchmark lending rate — showed one dot far below the other estimates, indicating that official backs aggressive rate cuts in 2025.\n \n\n \n Democrats have raised concerns over Miran’s close ties with the president, pointing to the fact that he’s still technically an employee of the White House, since he’s taking an unpaid leave while serving as Fed governor for a vacated term ending in late January. Miran for his part has said he will form independent opinions about the economy.\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n Federal agencies\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n Interest rates\n \n

However, the economy’s path forward looks murky, according to the central bank’s leader.\n \n\n \n The Fed cut its benchmark lending rate by a quarter point to a new range of 4% to 4.25%. It’s the first rate cut of President Donald Trump’s second term, following a nine-month pause prompted by the uncertainty surrounding the administration’s major policy shifts.\n \n\n \n But the economy’s future remains up in the air, Fed Chair Jerome Powell told reporters at a press conference following the conclusion of the Fed’s monetary policy meeting. “It’s not incredibly obvious what to do,” he said.\n \n\n \n Still, the Fed moved forward with a “risk management cut,” as Powell characterized it, because central bankers can’t wait around forever for the effects of Trump’s policies to become crystal clear.\n \n\n \n “We have to live life looking through the windshield rather than the rearview mirror,” Powell said.\n \n\n \n The Fed’s latest decision wasn’t unanimous: Fed Governor Stephen Miran, a Trump appointee sworn in right before the Fed’s meeting began on Tuesday, dissented, backing a larger, half-point rate cut.\n \n\n \n\n\n\n \n Related live story\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell speaks during a news conference following the Federal Open Market Committee meeting, Wednesday, Sept. 17, 2025, at the Federal Reserve Board Building in Washington. (AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin)\n \n\n Jacquelyn Martin/AP\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n Fed announces first rate cut in nine months, signals more reductions to come\n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n \n Fed officials penciled in an additional rate cut later in the year, according to their updated economic projections, compared to the two cuts in 2025 they estimated in June. That would mean the Fed could deliver another quarter-point cut at its October meeting, then another in December.\n \n\n \n However, their projections for unemployment and inflation this year were unchanged compared to their June estimates.\n \n\n \n Here are some takeaways from the Fed’s latest decision and Powell’s news conference.\n \n\n \n Powell on the labor market and inflation\n\n\n \n Powell made it clear that growing risks to the labor market were a key reason why the Fed finally lowered rates, even though there’s also a risk of Trump’s tariffs pushing up prices.\n \n\n \n The Fed chief characterized the labor market as one of “low hiring and low firing.”\n \n\n \n Powell pointed to high unemployment among young people as a consequence of today’s low hiring environment. The Fed noted in its policy statement that “downside risks to employment have risen.”\n \n\n \n “The concern is that if you start to see layoffs, there won’t be a lot of hiring going on,” Powell said.\n \n\n \n America’s central bankers remain in a tough spot, with both sides of their dual mandate — stable prices and maximum employment — under threat.\n \n\n \n Inflation of goods exposed to tariffs, such as furniture and appliances, have begun to climb in recent months, according to economic data. Powell said the impact of tariffs on prices has not had a “very large effect at this point,” but that the full extent of those effects remains to be seen.\n \n\n \n But in the end, it was the labor market’s future that was top of mind for Fed officials.\n \n\n \n “There really is meaningful downside risk” to the labor market, Powell said. “But let’s remember there’s a 4.3% unemployment rate and the economy is growing at 1.5%, so it’s not a bad economy.”\n \n\n \n Powell suggested that the Fed isn’t behind the curve, given that Wednesday’s decision is functioning as an insurance policy to defend against future weakness in the labor market.\n \n\n \n Powell on Miran and Fed independence\n\n\n \n The Fed’s latest decision was pivotal, but the elephant in the room was Trump’s aggressive efforts to reshape the central bank’s top ranks.\n \n\n \n The first question Powell was asked was about Miran’s arrival at the Fed, specifically whether his arrangement of serving as a Fed governor while remaining an employee of the White House means anything for Fed independence.\n \n\n \n “So, we did welcome a new committee member today and, as we always do, the committee remains united in pursuing our dual mandate goals,” Powell said. “We’re strongly committed to maintaining our independence and beyond that, I really don’t have anything to share.”\n \n\n \n\n\n\n \n Related article\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell at a news conference in Washington, DC, on March 19.\n \n\n Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n The most extraordinary Fed meeting yet has just kicked off\n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n \n As Fed officials contend with a complicated economic puzzle, the central bank’s powerful Board has seen some unprecedented developments in recent months.

It has become a key player in the artificial intelligence boom, with its cloud computing business helping to meet crushing demand for computing power for AI applications. One of its most prominent partnerships is with industry leader OpenAI, which reportedly agreed earlier this month to pay Oracle $300 billion over five years for data center space.\n \n\n \n Oracle’s eye-popping growth projections for its cloud business — laid out in its latest earnings report last week — sent its shares soaring. Oracle’s (ORCL) stock is up more than 80% since the start of this year, outpacing Nvidia, Google, Meta and Microsoft. The surge briefly made Ellison, now the company’s chairman and largest shareholder, the world’s richest person.\n \n\n \n Like Nvidia, which was known as a niche gaming processor company before it started producing must-have AI chips, Oracle’s recent rise is an example of how Silicon Valley stalwarts are seeing new life and opportunity in the AI era.\n \n\n \n\n\n\n \n Related video\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Oracle co-founder, CTO and Executive Chairman Larry Ellison listens as U.S. President Donald Trump speaks to reporters in the Oval Office of the White House on February 03, 2025 in Washington, DC.\n \n\n Anna Moneymaker/Getty Images\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n video\n \n \n \n How Larry Ellison edged out Elon Musk to become the richest person in the world\n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n \n “It’s a watershed moment for Oracle,” said Synovus Trust Company senior portfolio manager Daniel Morgan, comparing it to when Nvidia’s AI chip business began outpacing its gaming business. “A year ago, Oracle was a company that was kind of tripping through and trying to find its way … and now all of a sudden, we have massive validation of its strategy paying off.”\n \n\n \n And Oracle could gain another feather in its cap if it’s part of a deal to transfer control of popular social media app TikTok’s US operations to an American entity. White House officials said Monday that a framework for such a deal is nearly final, pending a conversation between President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping on Friday.\n \n\n \n It’s not clear who the prospective buyer in the deal is, but Oracle had previously been considered a top contender to take over the app. Oracle began hosting TikTok’s US data in 2020, part of an effort to assuage American national security concerns. And taking over full or partial control of TikTok’s US operations could give Oracle access to one of the world’s most popular apps and the 170 million American users and ad revenue opportunities that come with it.\n \n\n \n Oracle declined to comment for this story.\n \n\n \n A cloud latecomer now a key player\n\n\n \n Oracle was late to cloud computing, trailing other big players like Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud and Microsoft Azure. Ellison in 2008 even called the technology “complete gibberish.”\n \n\n \n And although it remains smaller than those other “hyperscalers,” Oracle’s cloud computing business began to turn a corner in 2022 — the year ChatGPT launched to the public — when AI companies realized building out their large language models was going to require massive computing power, Morningstar equity analyst Luke Yang told CNN. He added that Oracle’s close relationship with Nvidia also gave the company easier access to the in-demand AI chips required to power its burgeoning data center business.\n \n\n \n During last week’s earnings call, Oracle CEO Safra Catz said the company’s cloud infrastructure revenue is expected to grow 77% to $18 billion in its 2026 fiscal year and to hit $144 billion by 2030.\n \n\n \n That’s thanks in large part to a huge jump in “remaining performance obligations” (RPOs) — or contracted future revenue the company expects to collect on — which were up 359% year-on-year to $455 billion in the most recent quarter. Catz said the company signed four multi-billion-dollar contracts with three different customers during the quarter.\n \n\n \n Brian White, tech analyst for investment firm Monness, Crespi, Hardt & Co, called it a “shooting fish in a barrel” moment for Oracle as demand for data center capacity across the AI industry continues to outstrip supply, adding that the company is “living the AI dream.”\n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Larry Ellison, the Oracle chairman, sits in the Oval Office of the White House as President Donald Trump signs an executive order on February 3, 2025, in Washington.\n \n\n Evan Vucci/AP\n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n Oracle’s close partnership with OpenAI has helped to legitimize it as a presence in the AI computing space.

The octogenarian Ellison is back in headlines after Oracle announced a clutch of cloud computing deals that rocked the tech world and sent its stock up 35.9%, putting Ellison's fortune close to $400 billion, second globally only to Elon Musk. Sign up here.Then on Thursday, news broke that Paramount, the media conglomerate Ellison's family now controls, is preparing a bid to buy out the storied Warner Bros Discovery, threatening overnight to dominate Hollywood and culture.The swashbuckling billionaire may have been known more for his yacht collection, his ownership of a Hawaiian island or his longstanding support of Donald Trump.More recently, with little fanfare, he has plotted his way back to the center of power. At Paramount, his son David appears to be tilting CBS News toward the right, tapping Trump supporter and former CEO of conservative think tank Hudson Institute Kenneth Weinstein as ombudsman for CBS News. He also is reportedly considering The Free Press's Bari Weiss for a leadership role at the news organization.Ellison has also got his hands on TikTok. In 2022, Oracle began providing U.S. tech infrastructure to the short video-sharing platform after national security questions arose over the Chinese-owned service used by over 170 million Americans.Some probably have forgotten that Ellison's brash tactics and lavish lifestyles earned him the role of bad boy of Silicon Valley since he co-founded Oracle in 1977.In 2010, he played himself in \"Iron Man 2.\" Remarkably, Ellison has honed a reputation as an uber tech titan and playboy while tackling decidedly unsexy, vexingly hard computing challenges. Recently, he helped figure out how to string together thousands of computers to run artificial intelligence systems.Massive, AI-level money was more elusive until the latest quarter, when the cloud deals juiced Oracle's stock price.Oracle vanquished database rivals in the 1990s, then missed nearly a decade of the sales and stock market gains from the wholesale shift of business applications to the cloud.While AI shows tremendous promise for Oracle, success is far from certain, given that the entire industry is still working on a profitable business model. Also, Oracle has tied itself particularly closely to a single company -- OpenAI, which, according to a person familiar with the matter, is committed to paying Oracle $300 billion for computing resources over five years.DON'T COMPETE WITH NVIDIAOracle became an AI landlord, courting marquee customers including Meta and Elon Musk's xAI in addition to its new biggest client, OpenAI. That shift has helped booked revenue surge more than four-fold to $455 billion.“People have definitely questioned him over the years,\" said Matthew Durot, deputy editor for wealth at Forbes, which calculates his fortune. With Oracle's focus on AI, \"He’s sort of got the last laugh - at least for now.\"One key decision helped: Oracle chose not to build custom AI chips like Microsoft, Amazon and Google. The decision to instead rely on Nvidia has likely helped it get more chips from the global leader of AI processors, analysts said. Ellison himself led the way.At a dinner in 2024, Ellison took Musk and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang to Nobu, his Palo Alto sushi restaurant. \"Please take our money,\" Ellison said he told Huang. \"It worked,\" Ellison added in an earnings call with equity analysts.Within several months of that sushi dinner, Oracle landed more GPUs, closed a compute deal with OpenAI and announced a splashy half a trillion dollars OpenAI computing project, Stargate.Oracle's first cloud venture in 2016 ended in business disaster but a second, launched in 2018, was a service that proved cheaper and more flexible than other offerings.In 2020, when Zoom Technologies was buckling under a crush of new traffic during the pandemic, it tapped Oracle's cloud and its hiccups and outages all but vanished. In 2022, when TikTok moved the data of more than 100 million U.S. users to Oracle's cloud, the changeover went largely unnoticed by users. Analysts called this a major technical feat.HUGE RISKS REMAINEllison is known for piling up injuries in extreme sports, and Oracle's rush into AI shows a taste for risk.The company does not buy land, build data centers or power plants. It outsources all those functions to partners, who may or may not come through, said Chirag Dekate, a vice president and analyst at research firm Gartner.

In this articleMSFTFollow your favorite stocksCREATE FREE ACCOUNTMicrosoft CEO Satya Nadella departs following a meeting of the White House Task Force on AI Education in the East Room of the White House in Washington on Sept. 4, 2025.Eric Lee | Bloomberg | Getty ImagesMicrosoft CEO Satya Nadella told employees in a meeting on Thursday that the company has work to do to smooth relations with employees after announcing several rounds of layoffs and a mandated partial return to in-person work.In the meeting that was held online, an employee asked executives to speak about a perceived lack of empathy in the company's culture as of late and steps Microsoft is taking to rebuild trust with its workforce.\"I deeply appreciate that, the question and the sentiment behind it,\" Nadella said, in audio that was obtained by CNBC. \"I take it as feedback for me and everyone in the leadership team, because at the end of the day, I think we can do better, and we will do better.\"Nadella's comments come after Microsoft slashed 9,000 jobs in July, following smaller reductions in the months prior. On Tuesday, Microsoft said workers living near its headquarters in Redmond, Washington, must come into the office three days a week, starting in February, with a broader rollout to follow.Amy Coleman, Microsoft's human resources chief, said at Thursday's meeting that reception to the return-to-office announcement has been mixed, with some workers feeling like they're losing autonomy. But she said that employees in and around Seattle already come in, on average, 2.4 times each week. Like most of the tech industry, Microsoft went fully remote during the pandemic, and made particular use of its internal Teams video and chat offerings, which gained rapid adoption during that period. Microsoft has been slower than many of its peers to put a mandate in place for coming back to the office. Amazon, one of Microsoft's top rivals, called employees back to offices five days a week in January. While Nadella and the executive team are taking criticism from some staffers, Wall Street is applauding the company's growth and execution. The stock is up almost 20% this year, outperforming the broader market, pushing Microsoft's market cap to $3.7 trillion, which trails only Nvidia among the world's most-valuable companies. In July, Microsoft reported a 24% increase in net income to $27 billion. The company's gross margin was under 69%, compared with 71% in late 2023. It's rapidly building and renting data center infrastructure to meet artificial intelligence demand.watch nowVIDEO3:2303:23AI build up a long term story as adoption still consumer focused: Digital RealtySquawk Box AsiaNadella said at the meeting that with remote work, new employees and those who are early in their careers don't always feel a sense of apprenticeship or mentorship.\"Management is just mostly all remote, but the interns are all, you know, in one location,\" he said. \"And so those are things that just will break a social contract.\"Microsoft didn't immediately provide a comment. Even with Microsoft's rapid expansion, Nadella said the company is feeling the pressure. It's a common theme in the software industry, as concerns proliferate about the impact of AI and its potential to automate work. \"We have some very, very hard work ahead of us, and that hard process of renewal is essentially what we have to do,\" Nadella said. \"You have to be hardcore in terms of an intellectual honesty about what really needs to happen.\"Microsoft's Azure cloud business grew 39% in the latest quarter, but revenue in the Windows and devices business increased by just 2.5%.\"Some of the biggest businesses we built may not be as relevant going forward,\" Nadella said. \"Some of the margin that we love today may not be there tomorrow, and that means you have to be way ahead of all of those going away, right?\"Microsoft, which celebrated its 50th anniversary in April, will retain its core values as it confronts market realities, Nadella said.\"Capital markets have one simple truth,\" he said. \"There is no permission for any company to exist forever.\" That wasn't the only contentious topic at the meeting. Employees are awaiting details from a third-party investigation after The Guardian said in August that Israel's military used Microsoft's Azure cloud infrastructure to store Palestinians' phone calls as part of Israel's invasion of Gaza. Microsoft has fired five employees following protests at its headquarters in Redmond, according to a statement from the group No Azure for Apartheid.Microsoft President Brad Smith, whose office the protesters entered, addressed the issue on Thursday. He said that he and Coleman met with Jewish Microsoft employees, who have been harassed and threatened and have seen their public information shared online.\"We don't get to control what happens outside Microsoft, but we need to be clear about one thing,\" Smith said. \"There is no room for antisemitism at Microsoft, and as a company and as a community, we will protect this group and defend them from that.\"WATCH: Nebius Co-Founder: $17.4B Microsoft deal highlights surging AI infrastructure demandwatch nowVIDEO4:1004:10Microsoft deal highlights surging AI infrastructure demand: Nebius co-founderSquawk Box Europe","thumbnail":"/api/assets/scraped/thumb_scraped_satya-nadella_1758559003577_n1n9bf.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-09-11T21:14:14.000Z","tags":[],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://www.cnbc.com/2025/09/11/microsoft-ceo-nadella-says-company-must-rebuild-trust-with-employees.html","author":"Jordan Novet@in/jordannovet/WATCH LIVEJordan Novet@in/jordannovet/Jordan Novet@in/jordannovet/Jordan Novet@in/jordannovet/Jordan Novet@in/jordannovet/Jordan Novet@in/jordannovet/Jordan Novet@in/jordannovet/","originalImageUrl":"https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/108194599-1757020886905-gettyimages-2233036958-AI_EDUCATION_WH.jpeg?v=1757621353&w=1920&h=1080","scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T16:36:43.721Z","isScraped":1},{"id":"699ba5a1-8e4e-4923-badb-ba19ae0f73b6","outletId":"oblong","title":"Oblong Inc Stock Price, News & Analysis","summary":"Rhea-AI Summary\n Oblong (Nasdaq: OBLG) announced a major strategic pivot, transforming into a digital asset treasury company focused on artificial intelligence and blockchain technology.

The other use is blockchain as infrastructure, which supports stablecoins and other tokens. She noted, “There’s Bitcoin as the asset, and then there’s Solana, which is going to be global financial infrastructure.”\n\nSolana, which runs as open-source technology, is used by thousands of developers and millions of users worldwide. Liu said the protocol processes “more transactions every day than all of the rest of blockchains combined, and then times two.” The foundation is focusing on building stablecoin systems and moving real-world assets, such as money market funds, onto the blockchain.\n\nAlso Read | Crypto can be part of portfolio, but only in small measure: Sanjay Kathuria\n\nShe pointed out that blockchain’s global accessibility means countries need to decide how to incorporate it into their financial systems. “The UAE here has become a global leader, one of the two global hubs of the blockchain industry, and was able to do that very quickly,” Liu said.\n\nFor the full interview, watch the accompanying video\n\nCatch all the latest updates from the stock market hereContinue Reading(Edited by : Anshul)Check out our in-depth Market Coverage, Business News & get real-time Stock Market Updates on CNBC-TV18.

capital firm Hashed (CEO: Simon Seojoon Kim) and Japan’s leading venture capital B Dash Ventures (CEO: Hiroyuki Watanabe) successfully co-hosted the Blockchain Leaders Summit Tokyo 2025 (BLS Tokyo 2025) on the 27th in Tokyo, Japan.This year’s summit gathered around 400 blockchain industry leaders to discuss the future of Web3 across themes such as regulation, stablecoins, and the convergence of intellectual property (IP) with blockchain. Notably, Abu Dhabi–based global tech incubator Hub71 joined as the title sponsor, reinforcing the event’s role as a bridge for global collaboration between Japan and the UAE.Global leading Layer 1 projects including Aptos, Avalanche, Solana, and Sui, as well as Japan’s SMBC Nikko Securities and Web3 consulting firm DeFimans, joined as Platinum Sponsors. In addition, promising global Web3 projects such as Solayer, waveX, World, Backpack Exchange, Blockdaemon, Humanity Protocol, INTMAX, IOST, LayerZero, Minara, Nethermind, Presto, Stacks, The Sandbox, and Uniswap, along with major Japan-based blockchain companies including NOT A HOTEL DAO, YOUR RIGHTS, bitFlyer, and Japan Open Chain, participated as sponsors, further solidifying the summit as a comprehensive platform linking Japan’s Web3 ecosystem to the global stage.Key speakers included: Masao Shimazaki, Deputy Director-General, Japan Financial Services Agency (JFSA);Caroline D. Pham, Acting Commissioner, U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC); Genki Oda, Chairman, Japan Virtual and Crypto Assets Exchange Association (JVCEA); Aya Hamoodi, Corporate Lead, Value Creation at Hub71; Yat Siu, Chairman of Animoca Brands; David Allan Katz, Vice President of Asia-Pacific Strategy and Policy at Circle\n\t\t\n\n\t\t\nIn the dialogue with Ryuichi Nishida, Director at B Dash Ventures, Hashed CEO Simon Seojoon Kim emphasized, “Stablecoins are not merely a form of currency, but the essential infrastructure that enables the mass adoption of blockchain applications.” He added, “Japan, with the yen as a global currency and the global influence of its anime IP, holds immense untapped potential in the Web3 market, much like a sleeping lion.”Kim also highlighted Hashed’s portfolio company Modhaus and its K-pop project tripleS as an example, stating, “The model where fandom directly participates in the creative process through blockchain presents a massive opportunity that can also be applied to Japan’s anime industry.”The summit also underscored a shared recognition of the importance of regulation. Circle’s David Katz remarked, “Clear regulation reduces confusion and in fact accelerates innovation,” commending Japan for taking a leading role in stablecoin legalization across Asia.Masao Shimazaki of Japan’s FSA added, “Web3 regulation is not about restrictions, but about creating a sound environment for capital operation,” noting efforts such as strengthening transparency in disclosures, addressing unregistered foreign operators, and ensuring fair market pricing.\n\t\t\n\n\t\t\nJapanese startups and financial institutions present at the summit also expressed optimism that clearer regulations had significantly improved their business environment. Major institutions such as Sony Bank, SMFG, and Densan System shared ongoing initiatives to advance stablecoin adoption and blockchain-based payment infrastructure.Closing the summit, Hashed CEO Simon Seojoon Kim stated, “The Blockchain Leaders Summit 2025 has established itself as a true global platform where leaders from the UAE, Japan, and beyond come together not only to exchange ideas but to weave new frameworks of trust and collaboration. With the Japanese yen as a global currency and Japan’s world-renowned intellectual property, we contribute more deeply to further fostering the country’s blockchain ecosystem so that it may rise as a central pillar of the Web3 industry.”Ryuichi Nishida of B Dash Ventures commented after the conclusion of the event: “Japan is finally seeing the practical use of stablecoins and the entry of financial institutions into Web3 truly take shape, creating a solid foundation for blockchain-based businesses to grow. By working together with the global players who gathered at the Blockchain Leaders Summit, we aim to further accelerate the development of Japan’s Web3 industry.”About HashedHashed, established in 2017, is a web3 venture capital that focuses on investment and research in global startups and decentralized protocols.

President JD Vance said this week he was ready to step into the Oval Office should a \"terrible tragedy\" befall President Donald Trump, and as speculation about the president's health went viral this week, many questioned what the actual process for the vice president to assume the presidency looks like.Newsweek is looking back at the handful of times a vice president has stepped in to serve as president and outlines the process of ascendancy.Why It MattersLast month, photos of Trump's bruised hand circulated on social media, and the White House revealed that the president had been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), which his physician described as \"benign and common.\" The diagnosis has only further spurred scrutiny around Trump's health and fitness.Then, Trump did not make any on-camera appearances between Wednesday and Friday this week, with his first appearance on Saturday as he was pictured leaving the White House to golf during the Labor Day holiday weekend.However, that didn't stop social media from speculating whether that \"terrible tragedy\" could have actually happened, and many wondered how Vance would actually step in as president should that come to pass.On Tiktok, a video posted by user w0odada with the caption \"Streets are saying donald trump is dead??? And he hasnt been seen publicly since Tuesday???\" received over 600,000 likes and 3.5 million views.What To KnowVance in an interview with USA Today that published on Thursday stressed that the president is in good health and has \"incredible energy,\" saying, in part, \"I feel very confident the president of the United States is in good shape, is going to serve out the remainder of his term and do great things for the American people.\"He added, however, that \"if, God forbid, there's a terrible tragedy, I can't think of better on-the-job training than what I've gotten over the last 200 days.\"so many times internet has gone wild with the putin is dead and xi is dead rumors. that now happening with trump says a lot more about the state of mistrust in information and institutions in the united states than it does about the health of the president.— ian bremmer (@ianbremmer) August 30, 2025\nWhat Is the Presidential Line of Succession?Congress in 1792 passed the Presidential Succession Act, which provides a clear mechanism to replace the president, which includes a line of succession going through the Cabinet.In the event that the president is unable to serve, the line of succession progresses to the vice president, then the speaker of the House, president pro tempore of the Senate, secretary of state, secretary of the treasury, secretary of defense, the attorney general, secretary of the interior, secretary of agriculture, secretary of commerce, secretary of labor, secretary of health and human services, and so on.The secretary of education is 16th in the line of succession, and the secretary of homeland security is 18th in line.Throughout American history, there have been 15 times that the vice president has gone on to become president, with eight of those times occurring due to the death of the president, and four of those later securing an election, according to the U.S. Senate.\n\nVice President JD Vance looks at President Donald Trump as he talks in the Oval Office August 22 in Washington, D.C.\nVice President JD Vance looks at President Donald Trump as he talks in the Oval Office August 22 in Washington, D.C.\nChip Somodevilla/Getty Images\n function toggleCap(sourceEvent){const siblings=sourceEvent.parentNode.children;const shortDesc=siblings[\"short-cap-description\"];const fullDesc=siblings[\"full-cap-description\"];const readMoreBtn=sourceEvent;if(fullDesc.style.display==='none'){shortDesc.style.display='none';fullDesc.style.display='inline';readMoreBtn.textContent='Less'}else{shortDesc.style.display='inline';fullDesc.style.display='none';readMoreBtn.textContent='More'}} What Is the 25th Amendment?The 25th Amendment was reintroduced in 1965 after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy made clear that there was a need for a precise procedure to determine if the president is unfit to continue serving and how to replace him.After some disagreement between the House of Representatives and Senate on the final text, Congress ratified the amendment on July 12, 1965, and the amendment was fully ratified on February 10, 1967, after Nevada became the 38th state to ratify the amendment.The amendment replaced Article II, Clause 6 of the Constitution, which previously laid out the procedure of replacing a president, which had cause confusion in previous instances and uses.The clearer 25th Amendment states: \"In case of the removal of the President from office or of his death or resignation, the Vice President shall become President.\"The amendment also provides a mechanism for the vice president, with support of the majority of the Cabinet, to remove the president from office, although the president can countermand that attempt, forcing Congress to step in and determine the president's fitness to continue serving.Which Vice Presidents Succeeded the President After Death?Known as an \"Abrupt Transition,\" eight vice presidents have taken over as president following the death of the commander-in-chief—and one time through resignation, famously when Richard Nixon left office due to the Watergate scandal, with Gerald Ford taking over.John Tyler was first to ascend from vice president to president after William Henry Harrison died of pneumonia a month into his presidency in 1841—and confusion at the time due to the more vague Article II, Clause 6 of the Constitution, since it remained unclear if the vice president was acting president or outright president. Tyler's insistence on the latter set the precedent for all future presidential crises.Millard Fillmore in 1850 assumed the presidency after Zachary Taylor died from illness, then Andrew Johnson famously became president after the assassination of Abraham Lincoln in 1865 just days after the end of the Civil War.Chester Arthur and Theodore Roosevelt similarly became president after their commander-in-chief's assassination—James Garfield in 1881 and William McKinley in 1901, respectively, with Roosevelt being the youngest president at the age of 42 years old.Calvin Coolidge succeeded Warren Harding after the later suffered a fatal heart attack in 1923, and Harry Truman succeeded Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1945 upon the latter's death.Lyndon B. Johnson is the last president to take office following his predecessor's death following Kennedy's assassination.This means of the eight presidential deaths; half were by assassination and half were through some illness or health condition.Update 8/30/25, 1:53 p.m. ET: This article has been updated with additional information. doFir.push(function(){document.addEventListener(\"DOMContentLoaded\",function(event){let uncommonKnowledgeItems=document.querySelectorAll('.uncommon-list');if(uncommonKnowledgeItems.length>0){let uncommonKnowledgeContainerHtml='<div class=\"uncommon-knowledge\">\\\n <div class=\"logo-text\">\\\n <span><i class=\"uncommon-logo\"></i></span>\\\n <div class=\"text-content\">\\\n <h2>Uncommon Knowledge</h2>\\\n <p class=\"subtitle-desktop\">Newsweek is committed to challenging conventional wisdom and finding connections in the search for common ground.</p>\\\n </div>\\\n </div>\\\n <p class=\"subtitle-mobile\">Newsweek is committed to challenging conventional wisdom and finding connections in the search for common ground.</p>\\\n <div id=\"uncommon-knowledge-items-container\" class=\"owl-carousel owl-theme start-slider\">\\\n </div>\\\n </div>';uncommonKnowledgeItems[0].insertAdjacentHTML('afterend',uncommonKnowledgeContainerHtml);let uncommonKnowledgeContainerElement=document.getElementsByClassName('uncommon-knowledge');let itemsContainerElement=document.getElementById('uncommon-knowledge-items-container');uncommonKnowledgeContainerElement[0].style.display='block';uncommonKnowledgeItems.forEach((itemUncommon)=>{document.getElementById('uncommon-knowledge-items-container').insertAdjacentHTML('beforeend','<div class=\"uncommon-list-item\">'+itemUncommon.innerHTML+'</div>');itemUncommon.remove()});jQuery('.start-slider').owlCarousel({loop:!1,margin:10,nav:!0,items:1}).on('changed.owl.carousel',function(event){var currentItem=event.item.index;var totalItems=event.item.count;if(currentItem===0){jQuery('.owl-prev').addClass('disabled')}else{jQuery('.owl-prev').removeClass('disabled')}\nif(currentItem===totalItems-1){jQuery('.owl-next').addClass('disabled')}else{jQuery('.owl-next').removeClass('disabled')}})}})})","thumbnail":"/api/assets/scraped/thumb_scraped_jd-vance_1758561612600_4ko303.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-08-30T17:11:27.000Z","tags":[],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://www.newsweek.com/jd-vance-says-ready-presidency-trump-vp-succession-2122085","author":"Peter Aitken Peter Aitken","originalImageUrl":"https://d.newsweek.com/en/full/2712992/donald-trump-jd-vance-succession.jpg","scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T17:20:12.792Z","isScraped":1},{"id":"9afd7576-19b6-4c7d-b2bf-b10a275d6659","outletId":"ala-shaabana","title":"Palantir’s CEO: “We Will Grow 10x … With Fewer Employees Than We Have Today”","summary":"What Palantir, Salesforce, ServiceNow, and Microsoft Are Really Saying About the Future of SaaS Economics Bottom Line Up Front: Palantir CEO Alex Karp’s audacious goal of “10x revenue w…","body":"What Palantir, Salesforce, ServiceNow, and Microsoft Are Really Saying About the Future of SaaS Economics\nBottom Line Up Front: Palantir CEO Alex Karp’s audacious goal of “10x revenue with 3,600 people” (down from 4,100 current employees) isn’t an outlier—it’s the new playbook every public B2B company is now racing to execute. The data shows some AI-native startups are already achieving $1M+ revenue per employee while traditional B2B averages just $200K pre-IPO.\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-317083\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/www.saastr.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Screenshot-2025-08-08-at-10.33.03-AM-scaled.png?resize=738%2C1000&quality=70&ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"738\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https://www.saastr.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Screenshot-2025-08-08-at-10.33.03-AM-scaled.png 738w, https://www.saastr.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Screenshot-2025-08-08-at-10.33.03-AM-480x650.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 738px, 100vw\" />\nThe Palantir Catalyst: “This Is a Crazy, Efficient Revolution”\nLet’s start with the company that’s defining the new standard. Palantir posted a record $1 billion quarterly revenue with a “rule of 40” score of 94%—a near-unprecedented metric that CEO Alex Karp described as “once again obliterating” industry benchmarks. But the real story isn’t the revenue—it’s the workforce strategy.\n“This is a crazy, efficient revolution. The goal is to get 10x revenue and have 3,600 people. We have now 4,100,” Karp told CNBC. This isn’t just CEO swagger—it’s a fundamental reimagining of how B2B software scales. The company has already cut its IT workforce from 200 to fewer than 80 full-time employees in March, with executives celebrating how “LLMs simply don’t work in the real world without Palantir”.\nThe Palantir Formula:\n\nRevenue: $1B+ quarterly (48% YoY growth)\nCurrent headcount: 4,100 employees\nTarget headcount: 3,600 employees (12% reduction)\nTarget revenue multiple: 10x current levels\nMethod: Freeze hiring and “rely on AI to multiply every employee’s productivity” rather than conducting mass layoffs\n\n\nSalesforce: The $50M Savings Story\nWhile Palantir grabs headlines, Salesforce has quietly achieved $50 million in cost savings this year by reassigning 500 customer service workers to other roles within the company. CFO Robin Washington revealed that “AI has enabled Salesforce to reassign 500 customer service workers to other roles at the company this year, resulting in a cost savings of $50 million”.\nThe Salesforce Approach:\n\nHiring fewer software engineers as current staff use AI to become more productive\nMarc Benioff announced Salesforce will hire “no more software engineers in 2025” due to AI productivity gains exceeding 30%\nAccelerating hiring for salespeople while reducing engineering and support headcount\nCurrent workforce: 76,453 employees globally\n\nThe most telling data point? Benioff stated that engineering teams have increased productivity “by more than 30%” with Agentforce and other AI technology, leading to “incredible” engineering velocity. This isn’t about replacing humans—it’s about fundamentally changing the human-to-output ratio.\nServiceNow: The $100M Automation Play\nServiceNow is taking perhaps the most aggressive approach. The automation software giant is on track to save $100 million in staffing costs this year, attributing the windfall to internal AI deployment. CFO Gina Mastantuono told investors: “We talked at Knowledge about [$100 million] in savings in headcount alone in 2025. We’re seeing that come to fruition as planned”.\nServiceNow’s AI-First Results:\n\nRevenue grew 23% to $3.22 billion with AI driving the growth\nAI deployment in IT and customer support has “halved case resolution times”\nProductivity gains allow staff redeployment “to more complex issues and focus on AI training and upskilling”\nCEO Bill McDermott’s vision: “a company that could still operate if every employee called in sick on the same day”\n\nThis represents a complete paradigm shift. ServiceNow isn’t just automating tasks—they’re building what amounts to a self-healing, self-operating enterprise software company.\nMicrosoft: Past Peak Headcount, But With Record Growth\nMicrosoft’s approach is more measured but equally telling. Research shows 70% of Copilot users report being more productive, with users completing tasks 29% faster on average. The company’s internal data reveals transformational efficiency gains:\nMicrosoft’s Internal AI Impact:\n\nHR service advisors using Copilot see a 26% reduction in initial response time\nUsers summarize missed meetings 4x faster (11 minutes vs. 42 minutes)\nMa’aden saves up to 2,200 hours monthly using Microsoft 365 Copilot\nMotor Oil Group completes tasks “in minutes that previously took weeks”\n\nWhat’s remarkable is Microsoft’s customer data. Gemeente Breda saved “up to 28 hours per employee” monthly using Copilot, while MAIRE automated routine tasks, saving “more than 800 working hours per month”.\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-317074\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/www.saastr.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/IMG_7741-scaled-1.jpeg?resize=803%2C1000&quality=70&ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"803\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https://www.saastr.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/IMG_7741-scaled-1.jpeg 803w, https://www.saastr.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/IMG_7741-scaled-1-480x598.jpeg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 803px, 100vw\" />\nGoogle: The Silent Efficiency Play\nGoogle’s approach is subtly different but equally significant. CEO Sundar Pichai told employees: “In this AI moment, I think we have to accomplish more by taking advantage of this transition to drive higher productivity”. The company has maintained headcount below 2023 peaks while investing heavily in AI infrastructure.\nGoogle’s AI Productivity Strategy:\n\n50% of software engineers now use internal AI coding tool “Cider” on a weekly basis\nEmployees must “be more AI-savvy” as competition intensifies\nRecent cloud division cuts affected fewer than 100 people in sales operations, freeing resources to “invest in the business and artificial intelligence”\nHeadcount remains below 191,000 peak from 2023, currently at 187,000\n\nThe New Math: Revenue Per Employee Explodes\nThe most dramatic shift is happening in revenue per employee metrics. AI-native startups average $3.48 million in revenue per employee compared to traditional SaaS companies’ $610,668 average. Even excluding outliers like Midjourney, AI startups still average $2.47 million per employee—4.1x higher than traditional SaaS.\nThe New Benchmarks:\n\nCursor: $3.2M revenue per employee (founded 2022)\nMercor: $4.5M revenue per employee (founded 2023)\nKlarna: Nearly $1M revenue per employee thanks to AI efficiency push\nTraditional private SaaS median: $129,724 revenue per employee\n\nWe’re now in an era where companies of less than 100 employees are reaching $100M ARR, managing to “grow fast with small teams, thanks to products that scale and operations that are more automated than ever before”.\nWhat This Means for B2B Leaders\nThe Immediate Imperatives:\n\nAudit Your Human-to-Output Ratios Now: Revenue per Employee is becoming misleading in 2025 as AI-native players exceed $1M per employee—a benchmark that was “virtually unheard of among early-stage tech companies a decade ago”\nImplement AI-First Hiring Policies: Follow Salesforce’s lead—no new software engineers hired in 2025 while AI productivity gains exceed 30%\nRedesign Customer Success Operations: ServiceNow’s AI agents halved case resolution times—your support model may be fundamentally obsolete\nPlan for Workforce Redeployment: Salesforce reassigned 500 workers rather than laying them off, creating $50M in savings while maintaining talent\n\nThe Strategic Reality:\nThe companies getting this right aren’t just improving margins—they’re creating sustainable competitive advantages. Palantir’s 94% “rule of 40” score isn’t achievable through traditional optimization. ServiceNow’s $100M savings aren’t coming from traditional cost-cutting. These are entirely new operating models.\nThe Risks of Moving Too Slowly\nGoogle’s Pichai warned employees: “There will be companies which will become more efficient through this moment in terms of employee productivity, which is why I think it’s important to focus on that”. The implication is clear—companies that don’t achieve AI-driven efficiency gains will be competitively disadvantaged.\nThe data supports this urgency. PwC research shows AI-exposed industries have more than three times higher growth in revenue per employee (27% vs 7%) compared to other sectors. Jobs requiring AI skills carried an 11% salary premium in 2024, but the real premium is going to companies that can achieve 10x revenue growth with smaller teams.\nThe Broader B2B Efficiency Revolution\nThe Palantir model isn’t isolated. Across the B2B landscape, companies are discovering the same fundamental truth: AI doesn’t just improve productivity—it completely redefines the revenue-to-headcount equation.\nShopify: “Prove AI Can’t Do the Job Before Asking for More Headcount”\nShopify CEO Tobias Lütke has taken perhaps the most direct approach, telling employees in an internal memo: “Before asking for more headcount and resources, teams must demonstrate why they cannot get what they want done using AI”. This isn’t just policy—it’s a fundamental shift in how the company operates.\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-317085\" src=\"https://i0.wp.com/www.saastr.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Screenshot-2025-08-08-at-10.35.22-AM-scaled.png?resize=710%2C1000&quality=70&ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"710\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https://www.saastr.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Screenshot-2025-08-08-at-10.35.22-AM-scaled.png 710w, https://www.saastr.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Screenshot-2025-08-08-at-10.35.22-AM-480x676.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 710px, 100vw\" />\nShopify’s AI-First Results:\n\nRevenue grew 31% YoY in Q2 2025, driven by AI-powered tools like Universal Cart\nHeadcount fell to 8,100 at end of December from 8,300 a year earlier, despite revenue growth\nOver half of merchant support interactions are now AI-assisted, often fully resolving customer issues\nCFO noted they can “keep headcount relatively flat” while growing revenue\n\nKlarna: The $1M Revenue Per Employee Benchmark\nKlarna represents the most dramatic efficiency transformation, achieving what many thought impossible: nearly $1 million in revenue per employee, up from $575,000 just a year prior. The Swedish fintech didn’t just optimize—it fundamentally restructured.\nKlarna’s Transformation:\n\nEnded its expensive Salesforce contract and curtailed hiring efforts\nReplaced nearly 700 full-time customer service contractors with AI chatbots\nRevenue increased 13% to $701 million in Q1 2025 while maintaining efficiency gains\nDemonstrates that “AI-native players like Cursor and Lovable operate with radically leaner headcounts, often exceeding $1M in Revenue per Employee”\n\nHubSpot: Maintaining Flat Headcount While Scaling AI\nHubSpot’s approach shows how mature SaaS companies can transition to AI-first operations. While revenue grew 19% in Q2 2025, “AI has helped maintain flat headcount in support while increasing productivity, and it has improved email conversion rates and automated web chats”.\nHubSpot’s AI Integration:\n\nCustomer Agent resolves 50% of support tickets autonomously and cuts resolution time by 39%\nCopilot user engagement more than doubled from 270,000 in Q4 to over 660,000 in Q1\nAI features like Breeze Agents automate repetitive tasks: Prospecting Agent, Customer Agent, and content automation\nCompany projects reducing manual work by 40% for SMBs, which represents 60% of its customer base\n\nDatadog: Investing in AI While Optimizing Operations\nDatadog demonstrates how companies can simultaneously invest in growth and optimize through AI. The company is “constrained by sales capacity” and reinvests productivity gains into “producing more, whether that’s on the revenue side or on the product and engineering side”.\nDatadog’s Balanced Approach:\n\nRevenue reached $762M, up 25% YoY with strong free cash flow margin of 32%\nAI-native customers now account for 8.5% of ARR, up from 6% QoQ, driving 6 points of YoY revenue growth\nEngineering teams used their own cloud cost management products to achieve “substantial improvements, savings on bills and improvements in performance”\nSales rep headcount grew over 25% YoY, but productivity per rep increased significantly\n\nThe New Revenue Per Employee Benchmarks\nThe contrast between traditional and AI-native companies is stark:\nTraditional SaaS Benchmarks:\n\nPrivate SaaS median: $129,724 revenue per employee in 2025\nTraditional SaaS top 10 average: $610,668 revenue per employee\n\nAI-Native Achievements:\n\nMercor: $4.5M revenue per employee (founded 2023)\nCursor: $3.2M revenue per employee (founded 2022)\nKlarna: Nearly $1M revenue per employee (74% increase from prior year)\nTop 10 AI startups average: $3.48M revenue per employee—5.7x higher than traditional SaaS\n\nThe Bottom Line\nPalantir’s Alex Karp isn’t just building a data analytics company—he’s proving that “10x revenue with 3,600 people” is achievable. The question for every SaaS leader is whether you’re building the operating model to compete in this new reality or defending the old one.\nThe AI + Efficiency revolution isn’t coming—it’s here in force already at many tech leaders. And it’s accelerating. The companies that recognize this fastest will own their categories. The ones that don’t will become acquisition targets for the ones that do.\nThe math has changed. The only question is how quickly you’ll change with it.\n\n\n\tRelated Posts\t\n\t\t\n\tDear SaaStr: When Should a CEO Tell Startup Employees That The Company Is Going Under?\n\tTop SaaStr Content for the Week: Brex CEO, Mutiny CEO, Pigment CEO, Mark Roberge, and Dharmesh Shah\n\tTop SaaStr Content for the Week: Mailchimp’s CEO, SaaStr’s CEO, HubSpot’s CEO, Point Nine and lots more!","thumbnail":"/api/assets/scraped/thumb_scraped_alex-karp-palantir-ceo_1758561558621_4y1dc.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-08-15T18:16:13.000Z","tags":[],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://www.saastr.com/palantirs-ceo-we-will-grow-10x-with-fewer-employees-than-we-have-today/","author":"Jason LemkinJason Lemkin","originalImageUrl":"https://i0.wp.com/www.saastr.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/IMG_7741-scaled-1.jpeg?fit=803%2C1000&quality=70&ssl=1","scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T17:19:18.771Z","isScraped":1},{"id":"ae44ed87-df15-4425-9f89-2f4653d4fb94","outletId":"custody-regulation","title":"Enforcement News: The Custody Rule","summary":"By: Jeffrey M.

Haber \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Custody Rule provides that “it is a fraudulent, deceptive, or manipulative act, practice or course of business within the meaning of section 206(4) of the [Advisers] Act … for [a registered investment adviser] to have custody of client funds or securities unless” the adviser implements an enumerated set of requirements to prevent loss, misuse, or misappropriation of those funds and securities.[1] The purpose of the Custody Rule is to protect investment advisory clients from, among other things, the loss, misuse, or misappropriation of their funds and securities.\n\n\n\nUnder the rule, an investment adviser has custody if it holds, directly or indirectly, client funds or securities, or if it has the ability to obtain possession of those funds and securities.[2] Custody is defined to include, among other things, “[a]ny arrangement … under which [the adviser is] authorized or permitted to withdraw client funds or securities maintained with a custodian upon [its] instruction to the custodian” and “[a]ny capacity (such as … trustee of a trust) that gives [the adviser or its] supervised person legal ownership of or access to client funds or securities.”[3] A “related person” is defined as any person, directly or indirectly, controlling or controlled by the adviser, and any person that is under common control with the adviser.[4]\n\n\n\nUnder the Custody Rule, an investment adviser who has custody of client funds and securities must, among other things: (i) ensure that a qualified custodian maintains the client funds and securities; (ii) notify the client in writing of accounts opened by the adviser at a qualified custodian on the client’s behalf; (iii) have a reasonable basis for believing that the qualified custodian sends account statements at least quarterly to clients; and (iv) ensure that client funds and securities are verified by actual examination each year by an independent public accountant pursuant to a written agreement at a time chosen by the accountant without prior notice or announcement to the adviser (i.e., the “surprise examination” requirement).[5] The written agreement with the accountant must provide for the first examination to occur within six months of becoming subject to the requirement and require, among other things, that the accountant file a Form ADV-E with the SEC within 120 days of the date chosen by the accountant to perform the examination, which states that the accountant has examined the client funds and securities and describes the nature and extent of the examination.[6]\n\n\n\nToday, we examine In the Matter of Munakata Associates LLC (here), an administrative action that was settled in anticipation of the institution of enforcement proceedings involving the alleged violation of the Custody Rule.\n\n\n\nAccording to the SEC, from at least 2018 to 2024 (the “Relevant Period”), respondent’s president, sole principal, and chief compliance officer (the “Munakata’s President”) served as a co-trustee of two trusts that were advisory clients of Munakata. The trust agreements granted each co-trustee “broad investment and other powers under the trust agreement and applicable law to enter into transactions and to trade, buy, sell, sell short or otherwise acquire, receive, deliver, assign, endorse for transfer, hold or dispose of all manner of securities, futures, currencies and commodities …” as well as “broad powers under the trust agreements and applicable law to engage in borrowing and other loan and credit transactions ….” The trust agreements further stated that each co-trustee could act independently. As a result, respondent had access to and/or the ability to obtain possession of trust funds and securities without the consent of the respective co-trustees.\n\n\n\nDuring the Relevant Period, said the SEC, Munakata’s President had signatory authority on four client accounts. Pursuant to this authority, explained the SEC, Munakata’s President had the same ability to instruct the broker about the delivery of the accounts’ funds and securities as did the beneficial owner of the account. Thus, said the SEC, respondent had access to and/or the ability to obtain possession of client funds and securities.\n\n\n\nDuring the Relevant Period, said the SEC, Munakata’s President acted as an authorized agent with power of attorney on five client accounts. Pursuant to the power of attorney, explained the SEC, Munakata’s President had “the power to place orders in an account, request disbursements and make inquiries concerning the account such as obtaining account balances” as well as the power “to make gifts or other transfers of … money or other property from [the client’s] account during [the client’s] lifetime, without restriction, to any one or more persons, including the agent himself or herself.” (Orig’l emphasis). Thus, said the SEC, respondent had access to and/or the ability to obtain possession of client funds and securities.\n\n\n\nAs a result, said the SEC, during the Relevant Period, respondent had custody of client funds and securities under the Custody Rule. Accordingly, noted the SEC, respondent was required to obtain surprise examinations in accordance with Rule 206(4)-2(a)(4) during the Relevant Period. According to the SEC, at no time during the Relevant Period, however, did respondent arrange for the required surprise examinations for the client accounts.\n\n\n\nAs a result, the SEC alleged that, during the Relevant Period, respondent violated Section 206(4) of the Investment Advisers Act and Rule 206(4)-2 thereunder.\n\n\n\nWithout admitting or denying the findings in the SEC’s order instituting cease-and-desist proceedings (here), respondent agreed to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations and any future violations of Section 206(4) of the Advisers Act and Rule 206(4)-2 thereunder, and to pay a civil penalty in the amount of $50,000.\n\n\n\nTakeaway:\n\n\n\nOver recent years, the SEC has actively enforced the Custody Rule:\n\n\n\n\nIn September 2022, the SEC resolved nine enforcement proceedings alleging violations of the Custody Rule and associated requirements for amending Form ADV to provide accurate information about fund audits.\n\n\n\nIn September 2023, the SEC resolved five additional enforcement proceedings arising out of the Custody Rule.\n\n\n\nIn December 2023, the SEC settled charges with an investment adviser who allegedly failed, among other things, to conduct surprise examinations of its client funds or securities.\n\n\n\nIn August 2024, the SEC settled charges against an investment advisory firm for failing to deliver required audited financial statements in a timely manner and failing to promptly file an annual updating amendment to its Form ADV.\n\n\n\nIn September 2024, the SEC settled charges against a Florida-based (former) registered investment adviser for a private fund that primarily invested in crypto assets, for failing to comply with requirements related to the safeguarding of client assets, including crypto assets being offered and sold as securities.\n\n\n\n\nMunakata stands as another recent example of the SEC’s active enforcement of, and commitment to, enforcing the Custody Rule.\n\n\n\nMunakata also underscores the SEC’s emphasis on compliance even in the absence of client loss. As discussed, there was no allegation of investor loss in Munakata.\n\n\n\n____________________________________________\n\n\n\nJeffrey M. Haber is a partner and co-founder of Freiberger Haber LLP.

Though addresses need not contain personally identifying information, a blockchain observer might have access to off-chain information that lets them identify which addresses belong to which users. Users can generate new addresses for every payment, but many don’t, and this doesn’t obscure how funds are further spent.It is a common misconception that this level of transparency is only an issue for criminals who want to hide how they are moving their money. This is not true. To illustrate why this is a problem even for regular consumers, imagine that a user gets paid by their employer on-chain in bitcoin. The employer can directly observe how the user further spends that money on-chain, and might be able to see, for example, if a user pays to a well-known charity address (donation addresses are typically reused) or to a medical professional. By default, using vanilla Bitcoin can leak sensitive personal information about a user to their employer that we would normally expect to be private.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 25, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n 1:1 Redemptions for Some, Not All\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The Crucial PromiseStablecoin issuers offer a simple proposition: send one dollar to the stablecoin issuer in exchange for a digital token that represents that dollar on a blockchain. That stablecoin, for example, can be used as a payment tool or a store of value, and the issuer promises to redeem it for a dollar later. This simple promise of 1:1 redemption, known as par-value exchange, is more complicated than many realize and depends on a series of assumptions.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 22, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Self-Custody or Bust\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 22, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Financial infrastructure has long centered on assets in which the spender does not actually hold custody.

The second was wow, gold bars are surprisingly heavy, in part because of its density (bars are 28 pounds). They make you wear metal shoe covers to hold one in case you drop it on your foot. But the third thing I thought is “THIS is what the global monetary system rests on? This is just so antiquated.”\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n The MIT Digital Currency Initiative bids farewell to Tadge Dryja\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Five years ago, I was in the Boston area for a week and I hung out at the DCI.It wasn't much of a space back then—really more like a closet. But there were ethernet ports in the walls, assorted cables, and computer accessories, and a couch with occasional undergrads hanging out, coding, or discussing the finer points of cryptocurrencies. It was welcoming, and a lot of fun. I brought a computer and started working, and talking to people about Bitcoin, and helping some students with their projects…\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Bitcoin’s (un)common good\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Digital Currency Initiative at the MIT Media Lab Launches New Bitcoin Software and Security Effort with Industry LeadersThanks to millions of open source developer hours over the past 12 years, and a burgeoning and supportive ecosystem, Bitcoin is no longer an obscure cryptographic toy. It is now an open-source financial network that secures on the order of $1T of value.As the use of Bitcoin grows, and as it becomes more deeply embedded into our societies, the security of the network must grow and strengthen alongside it. Yet, as a common good, there is no one single Bitcoin protector or guardian to take on this formidable task. By design, there is no central command. And while this presents significant logistical challenges, it is also the distinguishing feature perhaps most unique to Bitcoin: no central point of failure. Bitcoin's nearly-uninterrupted operation over the years is a testament to the power of decentralization…\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Utreexo demo release 0.2\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The goal of Utreexo is to make running a full node easier, faster, and smaller, and while that’s more of an asymptote than a point on any curve, we’re getting there. Today we’ve released Utreexo demonstration 0.2, which pairs the Utreexo accumulator with a modified version of btcd(temporarily called utcd). Most of the utcd work was done by Calvin Kim, as Niklas Gögge and myself have been working on improving the accumulator and how it interacts with the bitcoin data structures. Calvin has written a post about the work as well.This new release works more like a normal bitcoin node: it starts up, finds peers, and verifies the blockchain. There are still things it doesn’t have, like a mempool, or a way to deal with reorgs.

Satoshi Nakamoto assumed that this would not occur because a majority of miners would find it more lucrative to honestly follow the protocol than to attack the chain, the source of their own mining revenues.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 4, 2020\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n Announcements\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n See all announcements\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n Posts\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jun 12, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n “Incorporating Cryptographic Methods in Economics” at MIT-ILP’s NextGen Security Conference\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jun 12, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n On May 16, 2024, DCI collaborator Dan Aronoff presented a lecture at the MIT Industrial Liaison Program’s NextGen Security Conference entitled “Incorporating Cryptographic Methods in Economics.” DCI research scientist Madars Virza co-created the slide deck with Dan.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jun 12, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 18, 2024\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Neha Narula selected for Rockefeller Foundation's 2025 Bellagio Center Residency\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 18, 2024\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Neha Narula, Director of the MIT Digital Currency Initiative (DCI), has been selected for the Rockefeller Foundation's 2025 Bellagio Center Residency. \n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 18, 2024\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 9, 2024\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n MIT DCI releases \"Enhancing the Privacy of a Digital Pound\" with the Bank of England\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 9, 2024\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n As innovation in electronic payments accelerates, privacy considerations are becoming ever more important.

However, both offline and online commerce are susceptible to fraud and other kinds of disagreements. The existing techniques for managing fraud and disputes focus on giving users easy access to chargebacks, which relies on intermediaries to resolve disputes. Potential designs for CBDC may involve intermediaries in new and different ways, or may not use intermediaries at all, calling into question how to address fraud if CBDCs become widely used.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 10, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 6, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n CoinDesk’s Money Reimagined: \"Back to Basics After ‘Token Casinos’ Wreaked Havoc, With Neha Narula\"\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 6, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n On this episode of “Money Reimagined,” Michael Casey, solo in Davos, Switzerland, on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum, speaks with Neha Narula, the director of the MIT Digital Currency Initiative to discuss the trends of both digitalization and innovation pertaining to stablecoins, digital currencies and the future of public money,\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 6, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jan 30, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n CoinDesk names MIT one of the “Best Universities for Blockchain 2022”\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jan 30, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n A private research university established in 1861, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is one of the world’s most prestigious schools and ranked first in the QS World University Rankings in 2023 due to its academic and research excellence in multiple fields, including blockchain.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jan 30, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jan 30, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n WBUR's Tales from the Crypto | Part I: Ukraine's NFTs and the 'Fyre Fest' of cryptocurrency\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jan 30, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The Endless Thread team is excited to introduce a new mini-series: Tales from the Crypto, or three windows into the wild world of cryptocurrency.

Instead, the researchers have explored two different approaches that could be used to process transactions, and thus could indicate the technical feasibility of a potential CBDC model. In a process involving significant design flexibility, the MIT group tested factors such as the volume and speed of transactions, and the resilience of the systems in general, among other requirements for a viable digital currency.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 3, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 15, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n AJ Towns listed as one of the \"Most Influential 2021: The Developers Who Wrote Bitcoin’s Taproot Upgrade\"\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 15, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Nick along with A.J.

But even the Treasury markets can be susceptible to strain, and if stablecoins grow large enough, a run could cause these markets to seize. Regulators and policymakers are going to have to face the question of whether stablecoin issuers will have access to the Fed Discount Window, and if not, what if any structural safeguards are needed to protect the US Treasury market?\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 21, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 15, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n A new research network for Bitcoin and digital currency\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 15, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n We’re creating a new global research network to 1) study Bitcoin and stablecoin use, especially in the global south, 2) build technology capacity, and 3) understand how to better design applications and protocols to empower people to financially flourish.

However, a nuanced analysis reveals crucial differences in financial and technical vulnerabilities.

Though addresses need not contain personally identifying information, a blockchain observer might have access to off-chain information that lets them identify which addresses belong to which users. Users can generate new addresses for every payment, but many don’t, and this doesn’t obscure how funds are further spent.It is a common misconception that this level of transparency is only an issue for criminals who want to hide how they are moving their money. This is not true. To illustrate why this is a problem even for regular consumers, imagine that a user gets paid by their employer on-chain in bitcoin. The employer can directly observe how the user further spends that money on-chain, and might be able to see, for example, if a user pays to a well-known charity address (donation addresses are typically reused) or to a medical professional. By default, using vanilla Bitcoin can leak sensitive personal information about a user to their employer that we would normally expect to be private.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 25, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n 1:1 Redemptions for Some, Not All\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The Crucial PromiseStablecoin issuers offer a simple proposition: send one dollar to the stablecoin issuer in exchange for a digital token that represents that dollar on a blockchain. That stablecoin, for example, can be used as a payment tool or a store of value, and the issuer promises to redeem it for a dollar later. This simple promise of 1:1 redemption, known as par-value exchange, is more complicated than many realize and depends on a series of assumptions.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 22, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Self-Custody or Bust\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 22, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Financial infrastructure has long centered on assets in which the spender does not actually hold custody. But self-custody isn’t an aberration ready to be disposed of; it’s a world of potential enhancement to human self-determination! Despite the dominance of intermediated, custodied, payment platforms and shrinking cash use, the rumors of self-custody's death are (hopefully) greatly exaggerated.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 22, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n A Decade of Digital Currency at MIT\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n A year ago I toured the gold vault beneath the New York Fed. You might recall it from the classic 1995 movie Die Hard with a Vengeance, but in case you aren’t familiar: It’s the world’s largest depository of monetary gold, storing over 6,000 tons 80 feet below Manhattan and protected by airtight vaults and its own police force.The first thing I thought when I was down there was wow, gold is very shiny. The second was wow, gold bars are surprisingly heavy, in part because of its density (bars are 28 pounds). They make you wear metal shoe covers to hold one in case you drop it on your foot. But the third thing I thought is “THIS is what the global monetary system rests on? This is just so antiquated.”\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n The MIT Digital Currency Initiative bids farewell to Tadge Dryja\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Five years ago, I was in the Boston area for a week and I hung out at the DCI.It wasn't much of a space back then—really more like a closet. But there were ethernet ports in the walls, assorted cables, and computer accessories, and a couch with occasional undergrads hanging out, coding, or discussing the finer points of cryptocurrencies. It was welcoming, and a lot of fun. I brought a computer and started working, and talking to people about Bitcoin, and helping some students with their projects…\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Bitcoin’s (un)common good\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Digital Currency Initiative at the MIT Media Lab Launches New Bitcoin Software and Security Effort with Industry LeadersThanks to millions of open source developer hours over the past 12 years, and a burgeoning and supportive ecosystem, Bitcoin is no longer an obscure cryptographic toy. It is now an open-source financial network that secures on the order of $1T of value.As the use of Bitcoin grows, and as it becomes more deeply embedded into our societies, the security of the network must grow and strengthen alongside it. Yet, as a common good, there is no one single Bitcoin protector or guardian to take on this formidable task. By design, there is no central command. And while this presents significant logistical challenges, it is also the distinguishing feature perhaps most unique to Bitcoin: no central point of failure. Bitcoin's nearly-uninterrupted operation over the years is a testament to the power of decentralization…\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Utreexo demo release 0.2\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The goal of Utreexo is to make running a full node easier, faster, and smaller, and while that’s more of an asymptote than a point on any curve, we’re getting there. Today we’ve released Utreexo demonstration 0.2, which pairs the Utreexo accumulator with a modified version of btcd(temporarily called utcd). Most of the utcd work was done by Calvin Kim, as Niklas Gögge and myself have been working on improving the accumulator and how it interacts with the bitcoin data structures. Calvin has written a post about the work as well.This new release works more like a normal bitcoin node: it starts up, finds peers, and verifies the blockchain. There are still things it doesn’t have, like a mempool, or a way to deal with reorgs. (It currently deals with reorgs by crashing.)\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 22, 2020\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Utreexo's First Demonstration\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 22, 2020\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n DCI Research Scientist Tadge Dryja released the Utreexo Demonstration today through a Medium post.“I’m excited to announce the release of the first demonstration of Utreexo.

If a 51% attack were economically feasible, an attacker could send a transaction to a victim, launch the attack, and then double spend the same coins back to themselves. Satoshi Nakamoto assumed that this would not occur because a majority of miners would find it more lucrative to honestly follow the protocol than to attack the chain, the source of their own mining revenues.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 4, 2020\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n Announcements\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n See all announcements\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n Posts\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jun 12, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n “Incorporating Cryptographic Methods in Economics” at MIT-ILP’s NextGen Security Conference\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jun 12, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n On May 16, 2024, DCI collaborator Dan Aronoff presented a lecture at the MIT Industrial Liaison Program’s NextGen Security Conference entitled “Incorporating Cryptographic Methods in Economics.” DCI research scientist Madars Virza co-created the slide deck with Dan.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jun 12, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 18, 2024\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Neha Narula selected for Rockefeller Foundation's 2025 Bellagio Center Residency\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 18, 2024\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Neha Narula, Director of the MIT Digital Currency Initiative (DCI), has been selected for the Rockefeller Foundation's 2025 Bellagio Center Residency. \n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 18, 2024\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 9, 2024\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n MIT DCI releases \"Enhancing the Privacy of a Digital Pound\" with the Bank of England\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 9, 2024\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n As innovation in electronic payments accelerates, privacy considerations are becoming ever more important.

The existing techniques for managing fraud and disputes focus on giving users easy access to chargebacks, which relies on intermediaries to resolve disputes.

Instead, the researchers have explored two different approaches that could be used to process transactions, and thus could indicate the technical feasibility of a potential CBDC model. In a process involving significant design flexibility, the MIT group tested factors such as the volume and speed of transactions, and the resilience of the systems in general, among other requirements for a viable digital currency.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 3, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 15, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n AJ Towns listed as one of the \"Most Influential 2021: The Developers Who Wrote Bitcoin’s Taproot Upgrade\"\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 15, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Nick along with A.J.

China has already launched its digital yuan to more than a million Chinese citizens, while the U.S. is still largely focused on research.The two groups tasked with this research in the U.S., MIT’s Digital Currency Initiative and the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, are parsing out what a digital currency might look like for Americans. Privacy is a major concern, so researchers and analysts are observing China’s digital yuan rollout.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 28, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 14, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \"The Fed’s digital dollar could bring millions into the digital economy\" by Quartz\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 14, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Neha discussed her Subcommittee Hearing: Building A Stronger Financial System: Opportunities of a Central Bank Digital Currency on June 9th and DCI’s current collaborative CBDC project with the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, with Scott Nover of Quartz.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 14, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 10, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n The Block Crypto reviews the Cryptoeconomic Systems Journal\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 10, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n MIT’s Digital Currency Initiative has launched a new academic journal, called Cryptoeconomic Systems.It’s a step toward a more robust academic dialogue around blockchain and crypto topics\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 10, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 10, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Neha discusses N.F.T.s in \"How Memes Become Money\" by The New Yorker\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 10, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n DCI Director Neha Narula took part in The New Yorker’s “How Memes Become Money” discussion.

Advocates argue that central bank digital currencies, or CBDCs, can make cross-border transactions easier, promote financial inclusion, and provide payment system stability.

But now comes the hard part: regulators from agencies like the Fed, Treasury, OCC and FinCEN will need to work together to decide how these rules get implemented, are enforced and are evolved.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 28, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 21, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Will Stablecoins Impact the US Treasury Market?\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 21, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Stablecoin issuers hold a significant amount of US Treasury securities, which is a conventionally conservative strategy. But even the Treasury markets can be susceptible to strain, and if stablecoins grow large enough, a run could cause these markets to seize. Regulators and policymakers are going to have to face the question of whether stablecoin issuers will have access to the Fed Discount Window, and if not, what if any structural safeguards are needed to protect the US Treasury market?\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 21, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 15, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n A new research network for Bitcoin and digital currency\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 15, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n We’re creating a new global research network to 1) study Bitcoin and stablecoin use, especially in the global south, 2) build technology capacity, and 3) understand how to better design applications and protocols to empower people to financially flourish.

Though addresses need not contain personally identifying information, a blockchain observer might have access to off-chain information that lets them identify which addresses belong to which users. Users can generate new addresses for every payment, but many don’t, and this doesn’t obscure how funds are further spent.It is a common misconception that this level of transparency is only an issue for criminals who want to hide how they are moving their money. This is not true. To illustrate why this is a problem even for regular consumers, imagine that a user gets paid by their employer on-chain in bitcoin. The employer can directly observe how the user further spends that money on-chain, and might be able to see, for example, if a user pays to a well-known charity address (donation addresses are typically reused) or to a medical professional. By default, using vanilla Bitcoin can leak sensitive personal information about a user to their employer that we would normally expect to be private.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 25, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n 1:1 Redemptions for Some, Not All\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The Crucial PromiseStablecoin issuers offer a simple proposition: send one dollar to the stablecoin issuer in exchange for a digital token that represents that dollar on a blockchain. That stablecoin, for example, can be used as a payment tool or a store of value, and the issuer promises to redeem it for a dollar later. This simple promise of 1:1 redemption, known as par-value exchange, is more complicated than many realize and depends on a series of assumptions.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 22, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Self-Custody or Bust\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 22, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Financial infrastructure has long centered on assets in which the spender does not actually hold custody.

You might recall it from the classic 1995 movie Die Hard with a Vengeance, but in case you aren’t familiar: It’s the world’s largest depository of monetary gold, storing over 6,000 tons 80 feet below Manhattan and protected by airtight vaults and its own police force.The first thing I thought when I was down there was wow, gold is very shiny. The second was wow, gold bars are surprisingly heavy, in part because of its density (bars are 28 pounds). They make you wear metal shoe covers to hold one in case you drop it on your foot. But the third thing I thought is “THIS is what the global monetary system rests on? This is just so antiquated.”\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n The MIT Digital Currency Initiative bids farewell to Tadge Dryja\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Five years ago, I was in the Boston area for a week and I hung out at the DCI.It wasn't much of a space back then—really more like a closet. But there were ethernet ports in the walls, assorted cables, and computer accessories, and a couch with occasional undergrads hanging out, coding, or discussing the finer points of cryptocurrencies. It was welcoming, and a lot of fun. I brought a computer and started working, and talking to people about Bitcoin, and helping some students with their projects…\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Bitcoin’s (un)common good\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Digital Currency Initiative at the MIT Media Lab Launches New Bitcoin Software and Security Effort with Industry LeadersThanks to millions of open source developer hours over the past 12 years, and a burgeoning and supportive ecosystem, Bitcoin is no longer an obscure cryptographic toy. It is now an open-source financial network that secures on the order of $1T of value.As the use of Bitcoin grows, and as it becomes more deeply embedded into our societies, the security of the network must grow and strengthen alongside it. Yet, as a common good, there is no one single Bitcoin protector or guardian to take on this formidable task. By design, there is no central command. And while this presents significant logistical challenges, it is also the distinguishing feature perhaps most unique to Bitcoin: no central point of failure. Bitcoin's nearly-uninterrupted operation over the years is a testament to the power of decentralization…\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Utreexo demo release 0.2\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The goal of Utreexo is to make running a full node easier, faster, and smaller, and while that’s more of an asymptote than a point on any curve, we’re getting there. Today we’ve released Utreexo demonstration 0.2, which pairs the Utreexo accumulator with a modified version of btcd(temporarily called utcd). Most of the utcd work was done by Calvin Kim, as Niklas Gögge and myself have been working on improving the accumulator and how it interacts with the bitcoin data structures. Calvin has written a post about the work as well.This new release works more like a normal bitcoin node: it starts up, finds peers, and verifies the blockchain. There are still things it doesn’t have, like a mempool, or a way to deal with reorgs. (It currently deals with reorgs by crashing.)\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 22, 2020\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Utreexo's First Demonstration\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 22, 2020\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n DCI Research Scientist Tadge Dryja released the Utreexo Demonstration today through a Medium post.“I’m excited to announce the release of the first demonstration of Utreexo.

The existing techniques for managing fraud and disputes focus on giving users easy access to chargebacks, which relies on intermediaries to resolve disputes.

Instead, the researchers have explored two different approaches that could be used to process transactions, and thus could indicate the technical feasibility of a potential CBDC model. In a process involving significant design flexibility, the MIT group tested factors such as the volume and speed of transactions, and the resilience of the systems in general, among other requirements for a viable digital currency.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 3, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 15, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n AJ Towns listed as one of the \"Most Influential 2021: The Developers Who Wrote Bitcoin’s Taproot Upgrade\"\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 15, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Nick along with A.J.

China has already launched its digital yuan to more than a million Chinese citizens, while the U.S. is still largely focused on research.The two groups tasked with this research in the U.S., MIT’s Digital Currency Initiative and the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, are parsing out what a digital currency might look like for Americans.

But now comes the hard part: regulators from agencies like the Fed, Treasury, OCC and FinCEN will need to work together to decide how these rules get implemented, are enforced and are evolved.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 28, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 21, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Will Stablecoins Impact the US Treasury Market?\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 21, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Stablecoin issuers hold a significant amount of US Treasury securities, which is a conventionally conservative strategy. But even the Treasury markets can be susceptible to strain, and if stablecoins grow large enough, a run could cause these markets to seize. Regulators and policymakers are going to have to face the question of whether stablecoin issuers will have access to the Fed Discount Window, and if not, what if any structural safeguards are needed to protect the US Treasury market?\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 21, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 15, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n A new research network for Bitcoin and digital currency\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 15, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n We’re creating a new global research network to 1) study Bitcoin and stablecoin use, especially in the global south, 2) build technology capacity, and 3) understand how to better design applications and protocols to empower people to financially flourish.

Though addresses need not contain personally identifying information, a blockchain observer might have access to off-chain information that lets them identify which addresses belong to which users. Users can generate new addresses for every payment, but many don’t, and this doesn’t obscure how funds are further spent.It is a common misconception that this level of transparency is only an issue for criminals who want to hide how they are moving their money. This is not true. To illustrate why this is a problem even for regular consumers, imagine that a user gets paid by their employer on-chain in bitcoin. The employer can directly observe how the user further spends that money on-chain, and might be able to see, for example, if a user pays to a well-known charity address (donation addresses are typically reused) or to a medical professional. By default, using vanilla Bitcoin can leak sensitive personal information about a user to their employer that we would normally expect to be private.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 25, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n 1:1 Redemptions for Some, Not All\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The Crucial PromiseStablecoin issuers offer a simple proposition: send one dollar to the stablecoin issuer in exchange for a digital token that represents that dollar on a blockchain. That stablecoin, for example, can be used as a payment tool or a store of value, and the issuer promises to redeem it for a dollar later. This simple promise of 1:1 redemption, known as par-value exchange, is more complicated than many realize and depends on a series of assumptions.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 22, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Self-Custody or Bust\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 22, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Financial infrastructure has long centered on assets in which the spender does not actually hold custody.

You might recall it from the classic 1995 movie Die Hard with a Vengeance, but in case you aren’t familiar: It’s the world’s largest depository of monetary gold, storing over 6,000 tons 80 feet below Manhattan and protected by airtight vaults and its own police force.The first thing I thought when I was down there was wow, gold is very shiny. The second was wow, gold bars are surprisingly heavy, in part because of its density (bars are 28 pounds). They make you wear metal shoe covers to hold one in case you drop it on your foot. But the third thing I thought is “THIS is what the global monetary system rests on? This is just so antiquated.”\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n The MIT Digital Currency Initiative bids farewell to Tadge Dryja\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Five years ago, I was in the Boston area for a week and I hung out at the DCI.It wasn't much of a space back then—really more like a closet. But there were ethernet ports in the walls, assorted cables, and computer accessories, and a couch with occasional undergrads hanging out, coding, or discussing the finer points of cryptocurrencies. It was welcoming, and a lot of fun. I brought a computer and started working, and talking to people about Bitcoin, and helping some students with their projects…\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Bitcoin’s (un)common good\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Digital Currency Initiative at the MIT Media Lab Launches New Bitcoin Software and Security Effort with Industry LeadersThanks to millions of open source developer hours over the past 12 years, and a burgeoning and supportive ecosystem, Bitcoin is no longer an obscure cryptographic toy. It is now an open-source financial network that secures on the order of $1T of value.As the use of Bitcoin grows, and as it becomes more deeply embedded into our societies, the security of the network must grow and strengthen alongside it. Yet, as a common good, there is no one single Bitcoin protector or guardian to take on this formidable task. By design, there is no central command. And while this presents significant logistical challenges, it is also the distinguishing feature perhaps most unique to Bitcoin: no central point of failure. Bitcoin's nearly-uninterrupted operation over the years is a testament to the power of decentralization…\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Utreexo demo release 0.2\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The goal of Utreexo is to make running a full node easier, faster, and smaller, and while that’s more of an asymptote than a point on any curve, we’re getting there. Today we’ve released Utreexo demonstration 0.2, which pairs the Utreexo accumulator with a modified version of btcd(temporarily called utcd). Most of the utcd work was done by Calvin Kim, as Niklas Gögge and myself have been working on improving the accumulator and how it interacts with the bitcoin data structures. Calvin has written a post about the work as well.This new release works more like a normal bitcoin node: it starts up, finds peers, and verifies the blockchain. There are still things it doesn’t have, like a mempool, or a way to deal with reorgs. (It currently deals with reorgs by crashing.)\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 22, 2020\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Utreexo's First Demonstration\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 22, 2020\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n DCI Research Scientist Tadge Dryja released the Utreexo Demonstration today through a Medium post.“I’m excited to announce the release of the first demonstration of Utreexo.

The existing techniques for managing fraud and disputes focus on giving users easy access to chargebacks, which relies on intermediaries to resolve disputes.

Instead, the researchers have explored two different approaches that could be used to process transactions, and thus could indicate the technical feasibility of a potential CBDC model. In a process involving significant design flexibility, the MIT group tested factors such as the volume and speed of transactions, and the resilience of the systems in general, among other requirements for a viable digital currency.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 3, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 15, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n AJ Towns listed as one of the \"Most Influential 2021: The Developers Who Wrote Bitcoin’s Taproot Upgrade\"\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 15, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Nick along with A.J.

China has already launched its digital yuan to more than a million Chinese citizens, while the U.S. is still largely focused on research.The two groups tasked with this research in the U.S., MIT’s Digital Currency Initiative and the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, are parsing out what a digital currency might look like for Americans.

Though addresses need not contain personally identifying information, a blockchain observer might have access to off-chain information that lets them identify which addresses belong to which users. Users can generate new addresses for every payment, but many don’t, and this doesn’t obscure how funds are further spent.It is a common misconception that this level of transparency is only an issue for criminals who want to hide how they are moving their money. This is not true. To illustrate why this is a problem even for regular consumers, imagine that a user gets paid by their employer on-chain in bitcoin. The employer can directly observe how the user further spends that money on-chain, and might be able to see, for example, if a user pays to a well-known charity address (donation addresses are typically reused) or to a medical professional. By default, using vanilla Bitcoin can leak sensitive personal information about a user to their employer that we would normally expect to be private.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 25, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n 1:1 Redemptions for Some, Not All\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The Crucial PromiseStablecoin issuers offer a simple proposition: send one dollar to the stablecoin issuer in exchange for a digital token that represents that dollar on a blockchain. That stablecoin, for example, can be used as a payment tool or a store of value, and the issuer promises to redeem it for a dollar later. This simple promise of 1:1 redemption, known as par-value exchange, is more complicated than many realize and depends on a series of assumptions.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 22, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Self-Custody or Bust\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 22, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Financial infrastructure has long centered on assets in which the spender does not actually hold custody.

Despite the dominance of intermediated, custodied, payment platforms and shrinking cash use, the rumors of self-custody's death are (hopefully) greatly exaggerated.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 22, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n A Decade of Digital Currency at MIT\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n A year ago I toured the gold vault beneath the New York Fed. You might recall it from the classic 1995 movie Die Hard with a Vengeance, but in case you aren’t familiar: It’s the world’s largest depository of monetary gold, storing over 6,000 tons 80 feet below Manhattan and protected by airtight vaults and its own police force.The first thing I thought when I was down there was wow, gold is very shiny. The second was wow, gold bars are surprisingly heavy, in part because of its density (bars are 28 pounds). They make you wear metal shoe covers to hold one in case you drop it on your foot. But the third thing I thought is “THIS is what the global monetary system rests on? This is just so antiquated.”\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n The MIT Digital Currency Initiative bids farewell to Tadge Dryja\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Five years ago, I was in the Boston area for a week and I hung out at the DCI.It wasn't much of a space back then—really more like a closet. But there were ethernet ports in the walls, assorted cables, and computer accessories, and a couch with occasional undergrads hanging out, coding, or discussing the finer points of cryptocurrencies. It was welcoming, and a lot of fun. I brought a computer and started working, and talking to people about Bitcoin, and helping some students with their projects…\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Bitcoin’s (un)common good\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Digital Currency Initiative at the MIT Media Lab Launches New Bitcoin Software and Security Effort with Industry LeadersThanks to millions of open source developer hours over the past 12 years, and a burgeoning and supportive ecosystem, Bitcoin is no longer an obscure cryptographic toy. It is now an open-source financial network that secures on the order of $1T of value.As the use of Bitcoin grows, and as it becomes more deeply embedded into our societies, the security of the network must grow and strengthen alongside it. Yet, as a common good, there is no one single Bitcoin protector or guardian to take on this formidable task. By design, there is no central command. And while this presents significant logistical challenges, it is also the distinguishing feature perhaps most unique to Bitcoin: no central point of failure. Bitcoin's nearly-uninterrupted operation over the years is a testament to the power of decentralization…\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Utreexo demo release 0.2\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The goal of Utreexo is to make running a full node easier, faster, and smaller, and while that’s more of an asymptote than a point on any curve, we’re getting there. Today we’ve released Utreexo demonstration 0.2, which pairs the Utreexo accumulator with a modified version of btcd(temporarily called utcd). Most of the utcd work was done by Calvin Kim, as Niklas Gögge and myself have been working on improving the accumulator and how it interacts with the bitcoin data structures. Calvin has written a post about the work as well.This new release works more like a normal bitcoin node: it starts up, finds peers, and verifies the blockchain. There are still things it doesn’t have, like a mempool, or a way to deal with reorgs.

Though addresses need not contain personally identifying information, a blockchain observer might have access to off-chain information that lets them identify which addresses belong to which users. Users can generate new addresses for every payment, but many don’t, and this doesn’t obscure how funds are further spent.It is a common misconception that this level of transparency is only an issue for criminals who want to hide how they are moving their money. This is not true. To illustrate why this is a problem even for regular consumers, imagine that a user gets paid by their employer on-chain in bitcoin. The employer can directly observe how the user further spends that money on-chain, and might be able to see, for example, if a user pays to a well-known charity address (donation addresses are typically reused) or to a medical professional. By default, using vanilla Bitcoin can leak sensitive personal information about a user to their employer that we would normally expect to be private.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 25, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n 1:1 Redemptions for Some, Not All\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The Crucial PromiseStablecoin issuers offer a simple proposition: send one dollar to the stablecoin issuer in exchange for a digital token that represents that dollar on a blockchain. That stablecoin, for example, can be used as a payment tool or a store of value, and the issuer promises to redeem it for a dollar later. This simple promise of 1:1 redemption, known as par-value exchange, is more complicated than many realize and depends on a series of assumptions.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 22, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Self-Custody or Bust\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 22, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Financial infrastructure has long centered on assets in which the spender does not actually hold custody.

The second was wow, gold bars are surprisingly heavy, in part because of its density (bars are 28 pounds). They make you wear metal shoe covers to hold one in case you drop it on your foot. But the third thing I thought is “THIS is what the global monetary system rests on? This is just so antiquated.”\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n The MIT Digital Currency Initiative bids farewell to Tadge Dryja\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Five years ago, I was in the Boston area for a week and I hung out at the DCI.It wasn't much of a space back then—really more like a closet. But there were ethernet ports in the walls, assorted cables, and computer accessories, and a couch with occasional undergrads hanging out, coding, or discussing the finer points of cryptocurrencies. It was welcoming, and a lot of fun. I brought a computer and started working, and talking to people about Bitcoin, and helping some students with their projects…\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Bitcoin’s (un)common good\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Digital Currency Initiative at the MIT Media Lab Launches New Bitcoin Software and Security Effort with Industry LeadersThanks to millions of open source developer hours over the past 12 years, and a burgeoning and supportive ecosystem, Bitcoin is no longer an obscure cryptographic toy. It is now an open-source financial network that secures on the order of $1T of value.As the use of Bitcoin grows, and as it becomes more deeply embedded into our societies, the security of the network must grow and strengthen alongside it. Yet, as a common good, there is no one single Bitcoin protector or guardian to take on this formidable task. By design, there is no central command. And while this presents significant logistical challenges, it is also the distinguishing feature perhaps most unique to Bitcoin: no central point of failure. Bitcoin's nearly-uninterrupted operation over the years is a testament to the power of decentralization…\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Utreexo demo release 0.2\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The goal of Utreexo is to make running a full node easier, faster, and smaller, and while that’s more of an asymptote than a point on any curve, we’re getting there. Today we’ve released Utreexo demonstration 0.2, which pairs the Utreexo accumulator with a modified version of btcd(temporarily called utcd). Most of the utcd work was done by Calvin Kim, as Niklas Gögge and myself have been working on improving the accumulator and how it interacts with the bitcoin data structures. Calvin has written a post about the work as well.This new release works more like a normal bitcoin node: it starts up, finds peers, and verifies the blockchain. There are still things it doesn’t have, like a mempool, or a way to deal with reorgs.

Though addresses need not contain personally identifying information, a blockchain observer might have access to off-chain information that lets them identify which addresses belong to which users. Users can generate new addresses for every payment, but many don’t, and this doesn’t obscure how funds are further spent.It is a common misconception that this level of transparency is only an issue for criminals who want to hide how they are moving their money. This is not true. To illustrate why this is a problem even for regular consumers, imagine that a user gets paid by their employer on-chain in bitcoin. The employer can directly observe how the user further spends that money on-chain, and might be able to see, for example, if a user pays to a well-known charity address (donation addresses are typically reused) or to a medical professional. By default, using vanilla Bitcoin can leak sensitive personal information about a user to their employer that we would normally expect to be private.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 25, 2025\n\nJul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n 1:1 Redemptions for Some, Not All\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The Crucial PromiseStablecoin issuers offer a simple proposition: send one dollar to the stablecoin issuer in exchange for a digital token that represents that dollar on a blockchain. That stablecoin, for example, can be used as a payment tool or a store of value, and the issuer promises to redeem it for a dollar later. This simple promise of 1:1 redemption, known as par-value exchange, is more complicated than many realize and depends on a series of assumptions.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\nMay 22, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Self-Custody or Bust\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 22, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Financial infrastructure has long centered on assets in which the spender does not actually hold custody.

You might recall it from the classic 1995 movie Die Hard with a Vengeance, but in case you aren’t familiar: It’s the world’s largest depository of monetary gold, storing over 6,000 tons 80 feet below Manhattan and protected by airtight vaults and its own police force.The first thing I thought when I was down there was wow, gold is very shiny. The second was wow, gold bars are surprisingly heavy, in part because of its density (bars are 28 pounds). They make you wear metal shoe covers to hold one in case you drop it on your foot. But the third thing I thought is “THIS is what the global monetary system rests on? This is just so antiquated.”\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 16, 2025\n\nAug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n The MIT Digital Currency Initiative bids farewell to Tadge Dryja\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Five years ago, I was in the Boston area for a week and I hung out at the DCI.It wasn't much of a space back then—really more like a closet.

It was welcoming, and a lot of fun.

It is now an open-source financial network that secures on the order of $1T of value.As the use of Bitcoin grows, and as it becomes more deeply embedded into our societies, the security of the network must grow and strengthen alongside it. Yet, as a common good, there is no one single Bitcoin protector or guardian to take on this formidable task. By design, there is no central command. And while this presents significant logistical challenges, it is also the distinguishing feature perhaps most unique to Bitcoin: no central point of failure. Bitcoin's nearly-uninterrupted operation over the years is a testament to the power of decentralization…\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\nFeb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Utreexo demo release 0.2\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The goal of Utreexo is to make running a full node easier, faster, and smaller, and while that’s more of an asymptote than a point on any curve, we’re getting there. Today we’ve released Utreexo demonstration 0.2, which pairs the Utreexo accumulator with a modified version of btcd(temporarily called utcd). Most of the utcd work was done by Calvin Kim, as Niklas Gögge and myself have been working on improving the accumulator and how it interacts with the bitcoin data structures. Calvin has written a post about the work as well.This new release works more like a normal bitcoin node: it starts up, finds peers, and verifies the blockchain. There are still things it doesn’t have, like a mempool, or a way to deal with reorgs. (It currently deals with reorgs by crashing.)\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\nJul 22, 2020\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Utreexo's First Demonstration\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 22, 2020\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n DCI Research Scientist Tadge Dryja released the Utreexo Demonstration today through a Medium post.“I’m excited to announce the release of the first demonstration of Utreexo.

In other words, privacy fears that the government can monitor personal payment transactions. Or sometimes, even concerns that they might attempt to control behaviors.

The existing techniques for managing fraud and disputes focus on giving users easy access to chargebacks, which relies on intermediaries to resolve disputes. Potential designs for CBDC may involve intermediaries in new and different ways, or may not use intermediaries at all, calling into question how to address fraud if CBDCs become widely used.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 10, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 6, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n CoinDesk’s Money Reimagined: \"Back to Basics After ‘Token Casinos’ Wreaked Havoc, With Neha Narula\"\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 6, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n On this episode of “Money Reimagined,” Michael Casey, solo in Davos, Switzerland, on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum, speaks with Neha Narula, the director of the MIT Digital Currency Initiative to discuss the trends of both digitalization and innovation pertaining to stablecoins, digital currencies and the future of public money,\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 6, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jan 30, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n CoinDesk names MIT one of the “Best Universities for Blockchain 2022”\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jan 30, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n A private research university established in 1861, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is one of the world’s most prestigious schools and ranked first in the QS World University Rankings in 2023 due to its academic and research excellence in multiple fields, including blockchain.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jan 30, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jan 30, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n WBUR's Tales from the Crypto | Part I: Ukraine's NFTs and the 'Fyre Fest' of cryptocurrency\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jan 30, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The Endless Thread team is excited to introduce a new mini-series: Tales from the Crypto, or three windows into the wild world of cryptocurrency.

Instead, the researchers have explored two different approaches that could be used to process transactions, and thus could indicate the technical feasibility of a potential CBDC model. In a process involving significant design flexibility, the MIT group tested factors such as the volume and speed of transactions, and the resilience of the systems in general, among other requirements for a viable digital currency.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 3, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 15, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n AJ Towns listed as one of the \"Most Influential 2021: The Developers Who Wrote Bitcoin’s Taproot Upgrade\"\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 15, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Nick along with A.J.

Nearly 80 countries — including China and the U.S. — are in the process of developing a CBDC, or Central Bank Digital Currency. It’s a form of money that’s regulated but exists entirely online. China has already launched its digital yuan to more than a million Chinese citizens, while the U.S. is still largely focused on research.The two groups tasked with this research in the U.S., MIT’s Digital Currency Initiative and the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, are parsing out what a digital currency might look like for Americans. Privacy is a major concern, so researchers and analysts are observing China’s digital yuan rollout.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 28, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 14, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \"The Fed’s digital dollar could bring millions into the digital economy\" by Quartz\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 14, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Neha discussed her Subcommittee Hearing: Building A Stronger Financial System: Opportunities of a Central Bank Digital Currency on June 9th and DCI’s current collaborative CBDC project with the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, with Scott Nover of Quartz.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 14, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 10, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n The Block Crypto reviews the Cryptoeconomic Systems Journal\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 10, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n MIT’s Digital Currency Initiative has launched a new academic journal, called Cryptoeconomic Systems.It’s a step toward a more robust academic dialogue around blockchain and crypto topics\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 10, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 10, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Neha discusses N.F.T.s in \"How Memes Become Money\" by The New Yorker\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 10, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n DCI Director Neha Narula took part in The New Yorker’s “How Memes Become Money” discussion.

Advocates argue that central bank digital currencies, or CBDCs, can make cross-border transactions easier, promote financial inclusion, and provide payment system stability.

The existing techniques for managing fraud and disputes focus on giving users easy access to chargebacks, which relies on intermediaries to resolve disputes. Potential designs for CBDC may involve intermediaries in new and different ways, or may not use intermediaries at all, calling into question how to address fraud if CBDCs become widely used.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 10, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 6, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n CoinDesk’s Money Reimagined: \"Back to Basics After ‘Token Casinos’ Wreaked Havoc, With Neha Narula\"\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 6, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n On this episode of “Money Reimagined,” Michael Casey, solo in Davos, Switzerland, on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum, speaks with Neha Narula, the director of the MIT Digital Currency Initiative to discuss the trends of both digitalization and innovation pertaining to stablecoins, digital currencies and the future of public money,\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 6, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jan 30, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n CoinDesk names MIT one of the “Best Universities for Blockchain 2022”\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jan 30, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n A private research university established in 1861, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is one of the world’s most prestigious schools and ranked first in the QS World University Rankings in 2023 due to its academic and research excellence in multiple fields, including blockchain.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jan 30, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jan 30, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n WBUR's Tales from the Crypto | Part I: Ukraine's NFTs and the 'Fyre Fest' of cryptocurrency\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jan 30, 2023\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The Endless Thread team is excited to introduce a new mini-series: Tales from the Crypto, or three windows into the wild world of cryptocurrency.

Instead, the researchers have explored two different approaches that could be used to process transactions, and thus could indicate the technical feasibility of a potential CBDC model. In a process involving significant design flexibility, the MIT group tested factors such as the volume and speed of transactions, and the resilience of the systems in general, among other requirements for a viable digital currency.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 3, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 15, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n AJ Towns listed as one of the \"Most Influential 2021: The Developers Who Wrote Bitcoin’s Taproot Upgrade\"\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 15, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Nick along with A.J.

For central banks, are CBDCs just a defensive reaction to private-sector innovations in money, or are they an opportunity for the monetary system? In this post, we consider several long-standing goals of central banks in their support and provision of retail payments, why and how central banks tackle these issues, and where CBDCs fit into the array of potential solutions.”\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 28, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n CNBC's Dain Evans interviews Neha Narula for \"China’s digital yuan could pose challenges to the U.S. dollar\"\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 28, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n China is beating the U.S. when it comes to innovation in online money, posing challenges to the U.S. dollar’s status as the de facto monetary reserve. Nearly 80 countries — including China and the U.S. — are in the process of developing a CBDC, or Central Bank Digital Currency. It’s a form of money that’s regulated but exists entirely online. China has already launched its digital yuan to more than a million Chinese citizens, while the U.S. is still largely focused on research.The two groups tasked with this research in the U.S., MIT’s Digital Currency Initiative and the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, are parsing out what a digital currency might look like for Americans.

Instead, the researchers have explored two different approaches that could be used to process transactions, and thus could indicate the technical feasibility of a potential CBDC model. In a process involving significant design flexibility, the MIT group tested factors such as the volume and speed of transactions, and the resilience of the systems in general, among other requirements for a viable digital currency.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 3, 2022\n\nDec 15, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n AJ Towns listed as one of the \"Most Influential 2021: The Developers Who Wrote Bitcoin’s Taproot Upgrade\"\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 15, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Nick along with A.J.

For central banks, are CBDCs just a defensive reaction to private-sector innovations in money, or are they an opportunity for the monetary system? In this post, we consider several long-standing goals of central banks in their support and provision of retail payments, why and how central banks tackle these issues, and where CBDCs fit into the array of potential solutions.”\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 2, 2021\n\nJul 28, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n CNBC's Dain Evans interviews Neha Narula for \"China’s digital yuan could pose challenges to the U.S. dollar\"\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 28, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n China is beating the U.S. when it comes to innovation in online money, posing challenges to the U.S. dollar’s status as the de facto monetary reserve. Nearly 80 countries — including China and the U.S. — are in the process of developing a CBDC, or Central Bank Digital Currency. It’s a form of money that’s regulated but exists entirely online. China has already launched its digital yuan to more than a million Chinese citizens, while the U.S. is still largely focused on research.The two groups tasked with this research in the U.S., MIT’s Digital Currency Initiative and the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, are parsing out what a digital currency might look like for Americans.

But even the Treasury markets can be susceptible to strain, and if stablecoins grow large enough, a run could cause these markets to seize. Regulators and policymakers are going to have to face the question of whether stablecoin issuers will have access to the Fed Discount Window, and if not, what if any structural safeguards are needed to protect the US Treasury market?\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 21, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 15, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n A new research network for Bitcoin and digital currency\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 15, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n We’re creating a new global research network to 1) study Bitcoin and stablecoin use, especially in the global south, 2) build technology capacity, and 3) understand how to better design applications and protocols to empower people to financially flourish.

Though addresses need not contain personally identifying information, a blockchain observer might have access to off-chain information that lets them identify which addresses belong to which users. Users can generate new addresses for every payment, but many don’t, and this doesn’t obscure how funds are further spent.It is a common misconception that this level of transparency is only an issue for criminals who want to hide how they are moving their money. This is not true. To illustrate why this is a problem even for regular consumers, imagine that a user gets paid by their employer on-chain in bitcoin. The employer can directly observe how the user further spends that money on-chain, and might be able to see, for example, if a user pays to a well-known charity address (donation addresses are typically reused) or to a medical professional. By default, using vanilla Bitcoin can leak sensitive personal information about a user to their employer that we would normally expect to be private.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 25, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n 1:1 Redemptions for Some, Not All\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The Crucial PromiseStablecoin issuers offer a simple proposition: send one dollar to the stablecoin issuer in exchange for a digital token that represents that dollar on a blockchain. That stablecoin, for example, can be used as a payment tool or a store of value, and the issuer promises to redeem it for a dollar later.

You might recall it from the classic 1995 movie Die Hard with a Vengeance, but in case you aren’t familiar: It’s the world’s largest depository of monetary gold, storing over 6,000 tons 80 feet below Manhattan and protected by airtight vaults and its own police force.The first thing I thought when I was down there was wow, gold is very shiny. The second was wow, gold bars are surprisingly heavy, in part because of its density (bars are 28 pounds). They make you wear metal shoe covers to hold one in case you drop it on your foot. But the third thing I thought is “THIS is what the global monetary system rests on? This is just so antiquated.”\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 16, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n The MIT Digital Currency Initiative bids farewell to Tadge Dryja\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Five years ago, I was in the Boston area for a week and I hung out at the DCI.It wasn't much of a space back then—really more like a closet. But there were ethernet ports in the walls, assorted cables, and computer accessories, and a couch with occasional undergrads hanging out, coding, or discussing the finer points of cryptocurrencies. It was welcoming, and a lot of fun. I brought a computer and started working, and talking to people about Bitcoin, and helping some students with their projects…\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Aug 24, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Bitcoin’s (un)common good\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Digital Currency Initiative at the MIT Media Lab Launches New Bitcoin Software and Security Effort with Industry LeadersThanks to millions of open source developer hours over the past 12 years, and a burgeoning and supportive ecosystem, Bitcoin is no longer an obscure cryptographic toy. It is now an open-source financial network that secures on the order of $1T of value.As the use of Bitcoin grows, and as it becomes more deeply embedded into our societies, the security of the network must grow and strengthen alongside it. Yet, as a common good, there is no one single Bitcoin protector or guardian to take on this formidable task. By design, there is no central command. And while this presents significant logistical challenges, it is also the distinguishing feature perhaps most unique to Bitcoin: no central point of failure. Bitcoin's nearly-uninterrupted operation over the years is a testament to the power of decentralization…\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 25, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Utreexo demo release 0.2\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n The goal of Utreexo is to make running a full node easier, faster, and smaller, and while that’s more of an asymptote than a point on any curve, we’re getting there. Today we’ve released Utreexo demonstration 0.2, which pairs the Utreexo accumulator with a modified version of btcd(temporarily called utcd). Most of the utcd work was done by Calvin Kim, as Niklas Gögge and myself have been working on improving the accumulator and how it interacts with the bitcoin data structures. Calvin has written a post about the work as well.This new release works more like a normal bitcoin node: it starts up, finds peers, and verifies the blockchain. There are still things it doesn’t have, like a mempool, or a way to deal with reorgs. (It currently deals with reorgs by crashing.)\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 2, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 22, 2020\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Utreexo's First Demonstration\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 22, 2020\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n DCI Research Scientist Tadge Dryja released the Utreexo Demonstration today through a Medium post.“I’m excited to announce the release of the first demonstration of Utreexo.

If a 51% attack were economically feasible, an attacker could send a transaction to a victim, launch the attack, and then double spend the same coins back to themselves. Satoshi Nakamoto assumed that this would not occur because a majority of miners would find it more lucrative to honestly follow the protocol than to attack the chain, the source of their own mining revenues.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 4, 2020\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jun 12, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n “Incorporating Cryptographic Methods in Economics” at MIT-ILP’s NextGen Security Conference\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jun 12, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n On May 16, 2024, DCI collaborator Dan Aronoff presented a lecture at the MIT Industrial Liaison Program’s NextGen Security Conference entitled “Incorporating Cryptographic Methods in Economics.” DCI research scientist Madars Virza co-created the slide deck with Dan.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jun 12, 2025\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 18, 2024\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Neha Narula selected for Rockefeller Foundation's 2025 Bellagio Center Residency\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 18, 2024\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Neha Narula, Director of the MIT Digital Currency Initiative (DCI), has been selected for the Rockefeller Foundation's 2025 Bellagio Center Residency. \n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 18, 2024\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 9, 2024\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n MIT DCI releases \"Enhancing the Privacy of a Digital Pound\" with the Bank of England\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 9, 2024\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n As innovation in electronic payments accelerates, privacy considerations are becoming ever more important.

The existing techniques for managing fraud and disputes focus on giving users easy access to chargebacks, which relies on intermediaries to resolve disputes.

Instead, the researchers have explored two different approaches that could be used to process transactions, and thus could indicate the technical feasibility of a potential CBDC model. In a process involving significant design flexibility, the MIT group tested factors such as the volume and speed of transactions, and the resilience of the systems in general, among other requirements for a viable digital currency.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Feb 3, 2022\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 15, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n AJ Towns listed as one of the \"Most Influential 2021: The Developers Who Wrote Bitcoin’s Taproot Upgrade\"\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Dec 15, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Nick along with A.J.

China has already launched its digital yuan to more than a million Chinese citizens, while the U.S. is still largely focused on research.The two groups tasked with this research in the U.S., MIT’s Digital Currency Initiative and the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, are parsing out what a digital currency might look like for Americans. Privacy is a major concern, so researchers and analysts are observing China’s digital yuan rollout.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 28, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 14, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n \"The Fed’s digital dollar could bring millions into the digital economy\" by Quartz\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 14, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n Neha discussed her Subcommittee Hearing: Building A Stronger Financial System: Opportunities of a Central Bank Digital Currency on June 9th and DCI’s current collaborative CBDC project with the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, with Scott Nover of Quartz.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t Jul 14, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 10, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n The Block Crypto reviews the Cryptoeconomic Systems Journal\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 10, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n MIT’s Digital Currency Initiative has launched a new academic journal, called Cryptoeconomic Systems.It’s a step toward a more robust academic dialogue around blockchain and crypto topics\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 10, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 10, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n Neha discusses N.F.T.s in \"How Memes Become Money\" by The New Yorker\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\t\n\t \n\t \n\t May 10, 2021\n\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n DCI Director Neha Narula took part in The New Yorker’s “How Memes Become Money” discussion.

Manifold is led by Rob Myers (founding Bitensor contributor, miner and subnet designer) and James Woodman (formerly COO of the Bittensor foundation). We believe Manifold is one of the most important Bittensor ecosystem startups, for a few reasons:\n\n\n\n\nTheir significant contributions to the evolution and development of the Bittensor protocol from early design work on Subnets (launched in late 2023) to more recent work like dTAO (dynamic TAO, released in February 2025), and future protocol upgrades like eTAO (expressive TAO, in the works now – enabling further expression of emission granularity by Subnet owners – built in collaboration with Latent).\n\n\n\nEarly open source contributions to Bittensor core and more recent open standards like Epistula.\n\n\n\nPioneering the category of permissionless compute incentives on Bittensor through the design and launch of Subnet 4: Targon (registered and launched in early October 2023, one of the first few Subnets launched on Bittensor).\n\n\n\n\nWhat is Targon?\n\n\n\nTargon is the world’s first and leading Confidential AI Cloud – live on Bittensor’s decentralized mainnet, permissionlessly incentivized (with > $60M / year in incentive) across 1,500+ H200s and growing rapidly, serving > 20 billion paid inference tokens daily. Targon has delivered pioneering compute incentives through the enablement of cutting-edge AI infrastructure that leverages Confidential Compute (CC) and Protected pcie (PPCIE) – unlocking verifiable and trustworthy execution of training, inference and tuning workloads.\n\n\n\nHere’s some snippets from the latest Targon update:\n\n\n\n“At its core, Bittensor is a marketplace of digital commodities. These commodities are powering the AI revolution, and properly incentivizing their production is of vital importance. In our view, compute is the most important commodity of the AI revolution, no different from the importance of electricity during the Second Industrial Revolution. Today’s compute owners are highly capital inefficient (see Lambda Labs’ $500M debt facility, rumored 15% interest rate), and we believe Targon can play an important role in reducing many of the inefficiencies that exist today. By allocating capital more efficiently, the world will have more compute and therefore more AI abundance.” … “If we opened a gas station and cut our prices to $0, we would expect a line of cars that stretched further than the eye could see. Would this be a good way to gain loyal customers? Not in our view. We would expect these customers to quickly leave us as soon as we raised our prices in line with peers. This is what happens in commodity markets, and we do not expect compute to behave any differently over the long run. Therefore, printing TAO tokens to perform free inference on other companies’ models is not overly interesting to us. It is important from a load testing perspective, but Targon does not plan on using our sacred emissions in this way. Instead, we are focused on building enterprise-grade solutions for companies looking to adopt AI.”\n\n\n\nFinally, we are blessed and honored to be joined by the following industry

become a musical style that appeals to Gen Z and older audiences alike.\n\n\n\nLeading the charge are a wave of younger artists that are simultaneously reshaping the genre and sticking to its distinctive local flavour. These stars are seen by some as more than singers — they’re held up as role models for fans and proud symbols of the region’s musical culture.\n\n\n\n[See more: Hengqin’s Midsummer Music Festival starts tomorrow]\n\n\n\nSo, here are three Cantopop singers currently making waves.\n\n\n\nAnson Lo\n\n\n\nMirror frontman Lo has been winning acclaim as a solo artist – All photos below courtesy of Wikicommons/Tombus20032000\n\n\n\nIt’s hard to talk about the revival of Cantopop without mentioning Mirror. The award-winning boy group has been credited for leading the genre’s resurgence, with columnist Luisa Tam comparing them to 90s Cantopop icons Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui.\n\n\n\nWithin the band, Anson Lo is arguably the most popular. The main dancer and English rapper of the group was a dance instructor before fame, having dropped out of the City University of Hong Kong to pursue his dreams. Lo’s ardent fans cite his caring personality and his starring role in the TV show Ossan’s Love as reasons for their support.\n\n\n\n[See more: Call for local musicians and artists for the 2025 Hush Beach Concerts]\n\n\n\nLo is also accomplished as a solo artist — his concerts in 2023 were performed to sold-out stadiums. Reflecting on his successes, Lo maintains an attitude of humility. “I never imagined [my career] would become what it is now,” he told Prestige.\n\n\n\nMC Cheung\n\n\n\nPop and R&B singer Cheung has now been signed to Warner Music\n\n\n\nMacao’s audiences are familiar with MC Cheung’s music — the “Caution Wet Floor” hitmaker visited Grand Lisboa Palace Resort earlier this month to perform his chart-topping songs.\n\n\n\nCheung rose to fame as the runner-up in ViuTV’s singing competition show King Maker II, but diehard fans know him as a former member of the street busking group Nothing Special. Having moved far from his humble roots, Cheung is now signed to Warner Music Hong Kong and known for creating R&B tracks with heartfelt lyrics.\n\n\n\n[See more: What summer music festivals are in Asia in 2025?]\n\n\n\nCheung’s breakout hit, “Pillow Talk,” reminisces on the conclusion of a romance. Termed “Breakup Song of the Year” by HK01’s Chen Zhiying, the lyrics use the extended metaphor of a pillow to represent shared memories. According to songwriter Terry Chui, Cheung’s vocals were a significant contributor to the song’s resonance: “MC completed it to a level beyond my imagination,” he said.\n\n\n\nThe song reached the top of Hong Kong’s charts, where it stayed for 12 weeks in a row. The accompanying music video currently sits at over 35 million views.\n\n\n\nMarf Yau\n\n\n\n‘It took a lot of courage to put myself out there in front of the world,’ Yau says\n\n\n\nAnother King Maker alumnus, Marf Yau is a member of the Hong Kong girl group Collar. The star, who recently released her popular song “Love Me Down,” worked as a veterinary nurse before her dance teacher, Rock Fang, encouraged her to join the show.\n\n\n\nDuring her time in King Maker, Yau impressed judges with her dancing skills and onstage charisma, winning first place. “It took a lot of courage to put myself out there in front of the world, and that’s something I’m very proud of myself for doing,” she told Prestige. \n\n\n\n[See more: K-pop’s Fact Music Awards to be staged in Macao]\n\n\n\nYau’s talents extend beyond music — she starred in the coming-of-age movie Blossoms Under Somewhere, as well as TV shows Left on Read and Where Is My 15 Minutes. Her portrayal in Blossoms Under Somewhere was lauded by Edmund Lee of the South China Morning Post: “Yau is a natural in the opaque role of a socially awkward introvert,” Lee wrote.\n\n\n\nAs a solo artist, Yau has 14 songs in her discography. She has performed at the music festival Clockenflap and as a supporting act for Coldplay.\n\n\n\nCorrection, 22 July 2025: The original version of this article misstated a location of one of Anson Lo’s 2023 sellout concerts.

The star, who recently released her popular song “Love Me Down,” worked as a veterinary nurse before her dance teacher, Rock Fang, encouraged her to join the show.\n\n\n\nDuring her time in King Maker, Yau impressed judges with her dancing skills and onstage charisma, winning first place. “It took a lot of courage to put myself out there in front of the world, and that’s something I’m very proud of myself for doing,” she told Prestige. \n\n\n\n[See more: K-pop’s Fact Music Awards to be staged in Macao]\n\n\n\nYau’s talents extend beyond music — she starred in the coming-of-age movie Blossoms Under Somewhere, as well as TV shows Left on Read and Where Is My 15 Minutes. Her portrayal in Blossoms Under Somewhere was lauded by Edmund Lee of the South China Morning Post: “Yau is a natural in the opaque role of a socially awkward introvert,” Lee wrote.\n\n\n\nAs a solo artist, Yau has 14 songs in her discography. She has performed at the music festival Clockenflap and as a supporting act for Coldplay.\n\n\n\nCorrection, 22 July 2025: The original version of this article misstated a location of one of Anson Lo’s 2023 sellout concerts.

Listing is set to go live on July 22, marking a major step in decentralized AI investment. The company secured $22.8M in financing to expand its Bittensor-focused mission.\nThe listing coincides with xTAO’s closing of a US$22.8 million financing of subscription receipts. The funding comes from an array of leading venture capital firms in the digital asset industry, including Animoca Brands, Arca, Arche Capital, Borderless Capital, DCG, FalconX, Hypersphere Ventures, Off the Chain Capital, Republic and Stratos. \n“Our public listing and financing mark important milestones for xTAO, as we execute on our mission of advancing decentralized AI,” said Karia Samaroo, founder and CEO of xTAO. “Bittensor is rapidly emerging as the ‘Bitcoin of AI,’ and xTAO will be well-positioned to capitalize on its growth potential through the operation of our validator and our use of TAO as our treasury reserve asset.”\nBittensor has emerged as an important alternative to centralized AI systems, with the network providing an open and user-controlled platform that is composed of specialized subnetworks, known as subnets, that focus on creating specific and unique products. \nJust as Bitcoin has used decentralized incentives to fuel a transparent, borderless form of money, Bittensor is incentivizing open and permission-less creation of machine intelligence, providing an alternative to the centralized AI oligopoly” said William Wolf, general partner at Arche Capital, an investor in xTAO. “We’re very excited to invest in xTAO because it brings structure, visibility, and capital access to Bittensor, helping it attract broader participation and scale into the public markets effectively.”\nA key goal for xTAO is to play an integral role in further enabling Bittensor’s creation of valuable and useful products, including the provision of data, computation, and machine learning models. xTAO’s validator operation will help to evaluate the quality of network products, as well as provide consumers and enterprises with access to these products.

The funding comes from an array of leading venture capital firms in the digital asset industry, including Animoca Brands, Arca, Arche Capital, Borderless Capital, DCG, FalconX, Hypersphere Ventures, Off the Chain Capital, Republic and Stratos. \n“Our public listing and financing mark important milestones for xTAO, as we execute on our mission of advancing decentralized AI,” said Karia Samaroo, founder and CEO of xTAO. “Bittensor is rapidly emerging as the ‘Bitcoin of AI,’ and xTAO will be well-positioned to capitalize on its growth potential through the operation of our validator and our use of TAO as our treasury reserve asset.”\nBittensor has emerged as an important alternative to centralized AI systems, with the network providing an open and user-controlled platform that is composed of specialized subnetworks, known as subnets, that focus on creating specific and unique products. \nJust as Bitcoin has used decentralized incentives to fuel a transparent, borderless form of money, Bittensor is incentivizing open and permission-less creation of machine intelligence, providing an alternative to the centralized AI oligopoly” said William Wolf, general partner at Arche Capital, an investor in xTAO. “We’re very excited to invest in xTAO because it brings structure, visibility, and capital access to Bittensor, helping it attract broader participation and scale into the public markets effectively.”\nA key goal for xTAO is to play an integral role in further enabling Bittensor’s creation of valuable and useful products, including the provision of data, computation, and machine learning models. xTAO’s validator operation will help to evaluate the quality of network products, as well as provide consumers and enterprises with access to these products. Bittensor validators, along with network miners and subnet owners, are incentivized by TAO.\nThe project has received support from the broader Bittensor ecosystem, notably from Bittensor co-founder Ala Shaabana, an advisor to xTAO who said in a statement that, “xTAO has created an institutional product for Bittensor, and we’re aligned on the vision and glad to be working alongside them.” \nWith the xTAO TSX Venture Listing now official, the business is well-positioned to advance decentralised AI by utilising Bittensor’s open ecosystem and public funding.\n\n<img width=\"871\" height=\"418\"

Teams across Google are working on ways to unlock AI’s benefits in fields as wide-ranging as healthcare, crisis response and education. To keep you posted on our progress, we're doing a regular roundup of Google's most recent AI news.Here’s a look back at some of our AI announcements from June.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n {\n \"play_video\": \"Play video\",\n \"pause_video\": \"Pause video\"\n }\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n June marked the mid-year solstice — the halfway point for Earth's revolution around the sun. What better opportunity for us to talk about the latest ways that Google AI is revolutionizing (ahem) the way people build and create, learn, search for information and even make scientific breakthroughs?\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n {\n \"play_video\": \"Play video\",\n \"pause_video\": \"Pause video\"\n }\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n We expanded our Gemini 2.5 family of models. Along with making Gemini 2.5 Flash and Pro generally available for everyone, we introduced 2.5 Flash-Lite, our most cost-efficient and fastest 2.5 model yet.We introduced Gemini CLI, an open-source AI agent for developers. Gemini CLI brings Gemini directly into your terminal for coding, problem-solving and task management. You can access Gemini 2.5 Pro free of charge with a personal Google account, or use a Google AI Studio or Vertex AI key for more access.We released Imagen 4 for developers in the Gemini API and Google AI Studio. Imagen 4, our best text-to-image model yet, is now available for paid preview in the Gemini API and for limited free testing in Google AI Studio. Imagen 4 offers significantly improved text rendering over our prior image models and will be generally available in the coming weeks.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n {\n \"play_video\": \"Play video\",\n \"pause_video\": \"Pause video\"\n }\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n We shared a closer look inside AI Mode. AI Mode is our most powerful AI search, and this month we shared how we brought it to life (and your fingertips) in a look at the history of its development.We introduced a new way to search with your voice in AI Mode. Search Live with voice lets you talk, listen and explore in real time with AI Mode in the Google app for Android and iOS. That means you can now have free-flowing, back-and-forth voice conversations with Search and explore links from across the web, so you can multitask and do things like find real-time tips for a trip while you’re packing for it. And with helpful transcripts saved in your AI Mode history, you can always revisit your searches and dive deeper on the web.We released interactive charts in AI Mode for financial data, stocks and mutual funds. With interactive chart visualizations in AI Mode, you can compare and analyze information over a specific time period, get an interactive graph and comprehensive explanations to your question, and ask follow-ups, thanks to our custom Gemini model’s advanced multi-step reasoning and multimodal capabilities in AI Mode.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n {\n \"play_video\": \"Play video\",\n \"pause_video\": \"Pause video\"\n }\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n We improved Ask Photos and brought it to more Google Photos users. Ask Photos uses Gemini models to help you find your photos with complex queries like “what did I eat on my trip to Barcelona?” At the same time, it now returns more photos faster for simpler searches like “beach” or “dogs.”We released our most advanced Chromebook Plus yet, with new helpful AI features. The new Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14 launched with several AI features to help you get things done — like Smart grouping to organize your open tabs and documents, AI image editing in the Gallery app, and the ability to take text from images and turn it into editable text. (Plus, it comes with custom wallpapers of Jupiter, created using generative AI in partnership with NASA especially for the Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14.)We created a new way to share your NotebookLM notebooks publicly. Now, you can share a notebook publicly with anyone using NotebookLM with a single link, whether it’s an overview of your nonprofit’s projects, product manuals for your business or study guides for your class.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n {\n \"play_video\": \"Play video\",\n \"pause_video\": \"Pause video\"\n }\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n We introduced Gemini for Education to help students and educators. Gemini for Education is a version of the Gemini app built for the unique needs of the educational community. And at this year’s International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) conference, we shared how this new AI solution could help every learner and educator, from personalizing learning for students to helping teachers generate compelling content, and more.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n {\n \"play_video\": \"Play video\",\n \"pause_video\": \"Pause video\"\n }\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n We introduced AlphaGenome: AI to better understand the human genome. Our new, unifying DNA sequence model advances regulatory variant-effect prediction and promises to shed new light on genome function. To advance scientific research, we’re making AlphaGenome available in preview via our AlphaGenome API for non-commercial research, with plans to release the model in the future.We launched Weather Lab to support better tropical cyclone prediction with AI. Google DeepMind and Google Research’s Weather Lab is an interactive website for sharing our AI weather models. Weather Lab features our experimental cyclone predictions, and we’re partnering with the U.S. National Hurricane Center to support their forecasts and warnings this cyclone season.We shared how AI breakthroughs are bringing hope to cancer research and treatment. Our President and Chief Investment Officer, Ruth Porat, spoke to the American Society of Clinical Oncology and discussed how Google’s AI research shows promise for early detection and treatment of cancer.We introduced Gemini Robotics On-Device to bring AI to robots. In March, we shared how Gemini Robotics, our most advanced VLA (vision language action) model, brings multimodal reasoning and real-world understanding to machines in the physical world. Gemini Robotics On-Device is the next step. It shows how to equip robots with strong general-purpose dexterity and task generalization and is optimized to run efficiently on the robot itself.

Teams across Google are working on ways to unlock AI’s benefits in fields as wide-ranging as healthcare, crisis response and education. To keep you posted on our progress, we're doing a regular roundup of Google's most recent AI news.Here’s a look back at some of our AI announcements from June.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n {\n \"play_video\": \"Play video\",\n \"pause_video\": \"Pause video\"\n }\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n June marked the mid-year solstice — the halfway point for Earth's revolution around the sun. What better opportunity for us to talk about the latest ways that Google AI is revolutionizing (ahem) the way people build and create, learn, search for information and even make scientific breakthroughs?\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n {\n \"play_video\": \"Play video\",\n \"pause_video\": \"Pause video\"\n }\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n We expanded our Gemini 2.5 family of models. Along with making Gemini 2.5 Flash and Pro generally available for everyone, we introduced 2.5 Flash-Lite, our most cost-efficient and fastest 2.5 model yet.We introduced Gemini CLI, an open-source AI agent for developers. Gemini CLI brings Gemini directly into your terminal for coding, problem-solving and task management. You can access Gemini 2.5 Pro free of charge with a personal Google account, or use a Google AI Studio or Vertex AI key for more access.We released Imagen 4 for developers in the Gemini API and Google AI Studio. Imagen 4, our best text-to-image model yet, is now available for paid preview in the Gemini API and for limited free testing in Google AI Studio. Imagen 4 offers significantly improved text rendering over our prior image models and will be generally available in the coming weeks.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n {\n \"play_video\": \"Play video\",\n \"pause_video\": \"Pause video\"\n }\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n We shared a closer look inside AI Mode. AI Mode is our most powerful AI search, and this month we shared how we brought it to life (and your fingertips) in a look at the history of its development.We introduced a new way to search with your voice in AI Mode. Search Live with voice lets you talk, listen and explore in real time with AI Mode in the Google app for Android and iOS. That means you can now have free-flowing, back-and-forth voice conversations with Search and explore links from across the web, so you can multitask and do things like find real-time tips for a trip while you’re packing for it. And with helpful transcripts saved in your AI Mode history, you can always revisit your searches and dive deeper on the web.We released interactive charts in AI Mode for financial data, stocks and mutual funds. With interactive chart visualizations in AI Mode, you can compare and analyze information over a specific time period, get an interactive graph and comprehensive explanations to your question, and ask follow-ups, thanks to our custom Gemini model’s advanced multi-step reasoning and multimodal capabilities in AI Mode.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n {\n \"play_video\": \"Play video\",\n \"pause_video\": \"Pause video\"\n }\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n We improved Ask Photos and brought it to more Google Photos users. Ask Photos uses Gemini models to help you find your photos with complex queries like “what did I eat on my trip to Barcelona?” At the same time, it now returns more photos faster for simpler searches like “beach” or “dogs.”We released our most advanced Chromebook Plus yet, with new helpful AI features. The new Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14 launched with several AI features to help you get things done — like Smart grouping to organize your open tabs and documents, AI image editing in the Gallery app, and the ability to take text from images and turn it into editable text. (Plus, it comes with custom wallpapers of Jupiter, created using generative AI in partnership with NASA especially for the Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14.)We created a new way to share your NotebookLM notebooks publicly. Now, you can share a notebook publicly with anyone using NotebookLM with a single link, whether it’s an overview of your nonprofit’s projects, product manuals for your business or study guides for your class.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n {\n \"play_video\": \"Play video\",\n \"pause_video\": \"Pause video\"\n }\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n We introduced Gemini for Education to help students and educators. Gemini for Education is a version of the Gemini app built for the unique needs of the educational community. And at this year’s International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) conference, we shared how this new AI solution could help every learner and educator, from personalizing learning for students to helping teachers generate compelling content, and more.\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n {\n \"play_video\": \"Play video\",\n \"pause_video\": \"Pause video\"\n }\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n \n \n We introduced AlphaGenome: AI to better understand the human genome. Our new, unifying DNA sequence model advances regulatory variant-effect prediction and promises to shed new light on genome function. To advance scientific research, we’re making AlphaGenome available in preview via our AlphaGenome API for non-commercial research, with plans to release the model in the future.We launched Weather Lab to support better tropical cyclone prediction with AI. Google DeepMind and Google Research’s Weather Lab is an interactive website for sharing our AI weather models. Weather Lab features our experimental cyclone predictions, and we’re partnering with the U.S. National Hurricane Center to support their forecasts and warnings this cyclone season.We shared how AI breakthroughs are bringing hope to cancer research and treatment.

Do you think they’d sell more now, or less?”\nSiu isn’t naive about the friction that arises when new technology challenges legacy frameworks, but as the founder of one of the largest Web3 companies ferociously investing in digital property rights, he sees value in what many critics deride, especially when it comes to ways NFTs and tokens are re-framing the creator economy. His company Animoca Brands has continued to double and triple down on big bets that the gamification of culture will create new ways for value to be distributed. Not just financially, but socially.\nWhile Bitcoin may have been first crypto to show how Web3 can be used to have a community derive value from shared network effects, the rise of culture onchain may be upon us. Community-owned projects like Coinage, which recently became the first Web3 media project to pay a distribution to NFT holders in the US, are gaining steam. In the Animoca portfolio, the same thinking has given rise to various two-sided marketplaces, including TinyTap — an educational platform that helps teachers monetize lesson plans and parents find content for their kids. According to Siu, the tokenization trend is only going to continue to further unlock network effects around value on the internet that previously wasn’t possible.\n“Money is essentially a social currency of form,” he said. “It only has value because it’s shared, so in fact, the distribution of money and the fact that it’s in everyone’s hands is actually why it gains power as well.”\nThis belief underpins how Siu sees the Web3 space evolving. “We want to help the whole world become tokenized, which is what we describe as digital property rights.” Through its tokenized projects like Mocaverse and its Anime ID partnership with Sony’s new blockchain, Siu envisions a future where users own their data, reputation, and digital assets no matter where they go on the internet.\nTo be fair, that reality may have taken longer than many people predicted — perhaps due to delays in many projects being able to promise their users any utility whatsoever — but Siu predicts big changes on that front this year. Particularly as major entertainment players like Sony start to move their IP onchain, new opportunities are expected to arise for Animoca as one of the industry’s leaders in digital property ownership.\n“I think last year we did about $350 million revenue, close to $100 million EBITDA and we’re sitting collectively, you know, between on and off balance sheet at about $4 billion worth of assets as of last year,” he said about Animoca’s recent performance. “It’s about intellectual property rights in a way, and sort of extending that essentially into the digital world, especially in the face of what’s happening with AI, for instance [and] the whole sort of thing that’s going on with Ghibli, for instance.”\nAnd despite the eye rolls from skeptics, Siu remains unfazed. “You know, you can attain a certain amount of wealth, but if you don’t share that wealth, you’re actually going to be probably more miserable over time.” In his view, it’s the network effects — not even necessarily the products from creators — that creates lasting value. “All we’re trying to do is help people build bigger network effects.”\nThat, he says, is how Web3 wins.","thumbnail":"/api/assets/scraped/thumb_scraped_yat-siu_1758558978020_0mkzm.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-04-08T14:58:46.000Z","tags":["MSN.com","Animoca Brands","Media and Gaming","Animoca Brands’ Yat Siu exclusive: Crypto will hit a billion people in 12 months","Dow Jones and Cision resolve ongoing litigation","Cision appoints Gianna Jackson as Chief Revenue Officer for the Americas"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":"https://www.raptorgroup.com/news/animoca-brands-yat-siu-on-why-2025-is-the-year-web3-wins/","author":null,"originalImageUrl":"https://www.raptorgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/jerin-j-X5FDG7k5M94-unsplash-scaled.jpg","scrapedAt":"2025-09-22T16:36:18.366Z","isScraped":1},{"id":"9becace2-6484-4776-9944-9d1d8074ca71","outletId":"scott-bessent","title":"U.S. Department of the Treasury","summary":"General Information\n\nRole of the Treasury\n\nOfficials\n\nOrganizational Chart\n\nOrders and Directives\nOfficesDomestic FinanceEconomic PolicyGeneral CounselInternational AffairsManagementPublic AffairsTax PolicyTerrorism and Financial IntelligenceTribal and Native AffairsInspectors GeneralBureausAlcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB)Bureau of Engraving & Printing (BEP)Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN)Bureau of the Fiscal Service (BFS)Internal Revenue Service (IRS)Office of the Com","body":"Official websites use .gov \n \n A .gov website belongs to an official government organization in the United States.\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Secure .gov websites use HTTPS \n \n A lock\n (LockA locked padlock)\n or https:// means you’ve safely connected to the .gov website.

Today is the Council’s first public session this year, which is fitting—the start of September is a natural moment for renewal and fresh focus. In that spirit, I’d like to discuss how economic growth strengthens financial stability—and how economic stagnation puts it at risk. Understanding these dynamics is key to advancing FSOC’s mission.Before we start, I’d like to have a moment of silence for the friend of many people in this room, Charlie Kirk, and the tragic incident that happened today. My heart is with the Kirk family during this devastating time. Inexcusable violence belongs nowhere in a civilized society. Charlie is a brave young man, a devoted husband, a loving father, and a great patriot. Please join me in praying for Charlie, his family, and our country. Thank you all. Warren Buffett has a penchant for spotting risk before others. He attributes his success in this arena to identifying what he calls “the ABCs of decay:” arrogance, bureaucracy, and complacency. If allowed to metastasize, Buffett says, these cancers lead to stagnation. And stagnation leads to collapse. That’s why companies—just as countries—must constantly guard against stagnation. Yet regulators too often overlook the threat economic stagnation poses to financial stability. And they come to regret it later. History is replete with examples: the Latin American Debt Crisis of the 1980s; Japan’s “Lost Decades;” and the Eurozone Debt Crisis. In each instance, a period of stagnation or depressed growth precipitated financial calamity, including bank failures, currency devaluations, and sovereign debt crises. These cautionary tales provide a powerful lesson for FSOC. As the country’s systemic risk watchdog, we cannot overlook the significant risk economic stagnation can pose to financial stability. Stagnation can make it harder for businesses and consumers to service private debt. It can raise questions about the sustainability of public debt. It can dampen earnings expectations, reducing asset values. It can lead to investors demanding higher risk premiums. These dynamics can reinforce one another, increasing a cycle of pessimism that spreads stress across the financial system.By contrast, a dynamic, innovative, and entrepreneurial economy is better able to withstand shocks. Growth is the antidote to stagnation. Which is why expanding economic growth must be among FSOC’s top priorities. Wage gains, increasing business earnings, higher tax revenues, reduced fiscal demands, and lower risk premiums all create buffers—both economic and psychological—that support a resilient financial system. With a focus on economic growth, in the coming year, the Council will consider ways to enhance the member agencies’ supervisory and regulatory frameworks, as well as other efforts to position banks and other regulated entities to foster innovation and further support economic growth. Our financial system must also be secure against internal disruptions and external threats. The Council’s work on economic security will include a focus on the resilience of our critical financial markets, including the Treasury, fixed-income, and equity markets, and the resilience of our critical market infrastructure.To this end, the Council will develop an interpretation of financial stability that will incorporate economic growth and security as key pillars. And so we will revisit the guidance and analytic framework that the Council adopted in 2023, to promote alignment with our new direction. Under my leadership, the Council is committing to procedural rigor where the nonbank designation power is concerned. There are other statutory tools at the FSOC’s disposal, such as its power to issue recommendations to member agencies, that can, if needed, mitigate the financial stability risks associated with certain financial activities. This tool is more tailored and precise than the designation power, which singles out individual institutions for designation and subsequent regulation by the Federal Reserve. I thank my fellow Council members for your cooperation in advancing the Council’s new growth and economic security agenda for the ultimate good of all Americans, from Wall Street to Main Street.\n \n \n Use featured image\n Off\n \n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Latest News\n \n \n \n September 22, 2025\n\n \n Treasury Sanctions Support Network of Brazilian Supreme Court Justice\n \n \n Boosting Collaboration Between UK and U.S. Financial Systems to Drive Innovation and Growth in Global Markets\n \n September 18, 2025\n\n \n Readout on Meeting with Mexican Banking Association\n \n \n Treasury Seeks Public Comment on Implementation of the GENIUS Act\n \n \n Treasury International Capital Data for July\n\nReadouts\n \n\n \n \n \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent Remarks at the Financial Stability Oversight Council\n\n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n September 10, 2025\n\n \n As prepared for deliveryI would like to call this meeting of the Financial Stability Oversight Council to order.

It's a make-or-break moment for the price.</p>\n\n<p>While some indicators look bearish for the short term, other chart patterns, like a potential bull flag or an inverted Head and Shoulders, hint that a big move up could be brewing.</p>\n\n<p>It's not just retail traders who are hopeful; the big money is already paying attention.</p>\n\n<p>Grayscale now includes TAO in its funds, and major players like Coinbase Institutional and BitGo are handling it for their large-scale clients.</p>\n\n<p>A couple of publicly traded firms, Oblong and TAO Synergies, have even started holding TAO in their company treasuries, a serious vote of confidence in where the project is headed.</p>\n\n<h3>Big risks and tough competition</h3>\n\n<p>But it's not a clear shot to the top for Bittensor.</p>\n\n<p>Running a global network of AIs takes a staggering amount of computing power, which could get expensive and push smaller players out, accidentally creating the centralization it was built to avoid.</p>\n\n<p>Then there's the government; regulators are still figuring out what to do with both AI and crypto, and a surprise rule change could spoil the party.</p>\n\n<p>Plus, the competition is fierce. Google and Microsoft aren't just going to sit back and let a decentralized network eat their lunch. A new challenger just entered the ring, too.</p>\n\n<p>A merger of three other AI crypto projects—Fetch.ai [FET], SingularityNET (AGIX), and Ocean Protocol (OCEAN)—has created the \"Artificial Superintelligence Alliance.\"</p>\n\n<p>Their goal is to build a powerful open-source competitor, taking on both Big Tech and Bittensor at the same time.</p>\n\n<h3>The recipe for a $3,000 coin</h3>\n\n<p>Getting to $3,000 means TAO's total value would have to swell to nearly $30 billion, putting it in the same league as today's top cryptocurrencies. For that to happen, a few big things need to go right.</p>\n\n<p>The entire crypto market would likely have to be in a full-blown bull run, which many are predicting for 2025. The hype around the AI-and-crypto narrative would also need to get even stronger.</p>\n\n<p>Most importantly, the halving's supply cut has to hit just as demand is taking off to create a real price squeeze.</p>\n\n<p>The Bittensor network itself must also prove its worth by continuing to grow its subnets—which have already exploded from 32 to over 118 since the dTAO update—and attracting real users.</p>\n\n<p>Predictions for 2025 are all over the map, with some analysts calling for a drop below $300 and others seeing a path to $1,500 or more.</p>\n\n<p>The most optimistic long-term calls for 2030 even see it flying past the $7,000 mark.</p>\n\n<p>So, is $3,000 a sure thing? Absolutely not. The road there is full of volatility, tough competition, and the unpredictable swings of the crypto market.</p>\n\n<p>But Bittensor has a unique idea, a smart economic model, and it's perfectly positioned in the red-hot AI sector.</p>\n\n<p>The halving might just be the spark that lights the fuse, but everyone is waiting to see if it leads to a real explosion in value.</p>","thumbnail":"/api/assets/stock_images/blockchain_technolog_f2631615.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-01-24T14:00:00.000Z","tags":["TAO","Bittensor","AI Crypto","Halving","Price Prediction"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":null,"author":null,"originalImageUrl":null,"scrapedAt":"2025-09-25T04:45:36.534Z","isScraped":0},{"id":"bd39826f-e958-44a0-b16a-84cbcd668caf","outletId":"7f641e7b-0eca-4688-8bb4-74a7a15a844e","title":"What is Story Protocol and Why is it Taking Over Crypto? — Why IP Token is a Must Buy in 2025","summary":"Story Protocol transforms intellectual property into programmable NFTs with automated licensing and royalties, solving long-standing attribution and monetization issues.","body":"<ul><li>Story Protocol transforms intellectual property into programmable NFTs with automated licensing and royalties, solving long-standing attribution and monetization issues.</li><li>Backed by a16z, Polychain, and Samsung NEXT, the project is already attracting over 135 ecosystem partners and AI developers.</li><li>With deflationary tokenomics and real-world creator adoption, the $IP token could emerge as one of the strongest crypto buys of 2025.</li></ul><p>Story Protocol, a purpose-built Layer 1 blockchain, is positioning itself as the foundation for intellectual property in the digital and AI era. Backed by heavyweights like a16z Crypto, Polychain Capital, and Samsung NEXT, the project is rapidly emerging as one of the most ambitious attempts to rewire how intellectual property is managed, licensed, and monetized. And with momentum building across both technology and markets, Story Protocol is no longer just another blockchain.</p><h3>What is Story?</h3><p>Story Protocol is a purpose-built Layer 1 blockchain designed to register, license, and monetize intellectual property as on-chain assets. It transforms creative works into programmable NFTs, enabling creators to embed licensing terms, automate royalties, and track derivative usage across platforms. Unlike general-purpose chains, Story is optimized for complex IP graphs, making it the first blockchain capable of handling the tangled web of ownership, remixing, and attribution.</p><p>At its core, the protocol is built on an EVM-compatible execution environment, secured by CometBFT consensus, and powered by the $IP token. It supports everything from music and art to AI training datasets and collaborative fictional universes. So, whether you are an independent artist, a data scientist, or an AI developer, Story offers a frictionless way to tokenize your work and get paid for its use.</p><h3>Core Components</h3><p>Story Protocol's architecture is modular, aggressive, and unapologetically creator-first. Each component is engineered to automate what used to take lawyers, paperwork, and months of negotiation. Together, they form a system where ownership is instant, licensing is programmable, and royalties are non-negotiable. Key components include:</p><h3>Story Network (Layer 1 Blockchain)</h3><p>The Story Network forms the foundation of the system. EVM compatibility ensures seamless migration for developers, while optimizations allow the chain to handle complex IP relationships. Built on CometBFT consensus, it offers rapid transaction finality and low fees, making it viable for everyday licensing and royalty settlements.</p><h3>Proof-of-Creativity Protocol</h3><p>This framework governs how intellectual property is registered and managed. IP Assets are minted as NFTs, encapsulating ownership, licensing, and royalty data. Each asset is tied to an IP Account, a smart account that manages interactions with modules like licensing and royalties. This structure ensures clear attribution, traceability, and automated revenue flows.</p><h3>Programmable IP License (PIL)</h3><p>The PIL is the legal and technical bridge. It standardizes licensing into enforceable templates, mirrored on-chain by smart contracts. A creator can set remix rules, royalty splits, and usage rights. These agreements are executed automatically, ensuring compliance without the need for expensive legal negotiations. PIL represents a new level of interoperability between code and law.</p><h3>Agent-to-Agent IP (ATCP/IP)</h3><p>This protocol enables autonomous AI agents to negotiate, license, and transact IP usage with one another. It lays the groundwork for machine-to-machine IP economies, where AI-generated content can be remixed, monetized, and attributed without human intervention. Essentially, as AI becomes a dominant force in content creation, ATCP/IP ensures that original creators are not left behind.</p><h3>What Problems Does It Solve?</h3><p>Story Protocol eliminates the inefficiencies of traditional IP management. It replaces paperwork with smart contracts, lawyers with modules, and opaque licensing with programmable transparency. It solves the attribution crisis in AI training, where models consume vast amounts of uncredited data. It empowers creators to monetize derivative works, track usage, and receive royalties in real time.</p><p>The protocol also addresses the fragmentation of IP across jurisdictions. By creating a global registry with embedded legal logic, Story makes IP interoperable across borders. It democratizes access to licensing, allowing small creators to compete with large occupants. All in all, it turns IP into a liquid asset class, unlocking new financial models and revenue streams.</p><h3>Utility and Offerings</h3><p>Story Protocol is designed to route value with zero friction for all things IP related. To achieve this, it deploys a tightly integrated set of utilities that automate ownership, licensing, monetization, and governance across its network. This includes:</p><h3>$IP Token</h3><p>The native utility token powers transactions, staking, and governance. It serves as gas for all on-chain actions, collateral for validator security, and voting weight in the Story DAO. The token has deflationary mechanics, with a portion of each transaction burned to reduce supply. Its total supply is capped at one billion, with 25 percent unlocked at launch and the rest vested over 48 months.</p><h3>Protocol Modules</h3><p>Story provides specialized modules that automate critical functions.</p><p><strong>Licensing Module</strong> – This module attaches enforceable terms to IP Assets, defining how they can be reused, remixed, or monetized. It automates licensing agreements, ensuring that creators are compensated without manual negotiation.</p><p><strong>Royalty Module</strong> – Automates revenue distribution across original and derivative works. It calculates shares based on licensing relationships and routes payments directly to wallets, eliminating disputes and delays.</p><p><strong>Dispute Module</strong> – Provides a structured process for challenging IP registrations or improper usage. Flagged assets are restricted from monetization until resolved, protecting legitimate creators from exploitation.</p><p><strong>Grouping Module</strong> – Combines multiple IP Assets under shared terms, enabling collaborative collections with unified licensing and royalty logic. It simplifies management for teams and communities.</p><p><strong>Metadata Module</strong> – Records and manages descriptive information for IP Assets. Creators can freeze metadata to ensure permanence, providing trust and transparency for buyers and collaborators.</p><p>Together, these modules streamline processes that previously required complex legal machinery.</p>","thumbnail":"/api/assets/stock_images/intellectual_propert_71594bca.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-01-24T12:00:00.000Z","tags":["Story Protocol","IP","Crypto","Blockchain","NFT","Web3"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":null,"author":null,"originalImageUrl":null,"scrapedAt":null,"isScraped":0},{"id":"c9f52b93-b7d4-485e-b044-95bf9f199d3f","outletId":"arthur-hayes","title":"Arthur Hayes: U.S. War Financing Will Drive Bitcoin Into the Million-Dollar Era","summary":"Seoul, September 2025 — At the Korea Blockchain Week (KBW) Summit 2025, BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes delivered a provocative keynote, predicting that the U.S. government's aggressive money-printing policies under Donald Trump could catapult Bitcoin to extraordinary heights. Hayes forecasted that by 2028, a single Bitcoin could be worth as much as $3.4 million.","body":"<p>At the KBW 2025 Summit, BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes delivered one of his most provocative forecasts yet: the United States' coming wave of money printing to fund military reindustrialization could push Bitcoin into the multimillion-dollar range. Hayes argued that America is entering a period of \"crazy\" monetary expansion, designed to rebuild its military base and finance future wars. He drew a direct parallel to the 1940s, when the U.S. Treasury and Federal Reserve jointly implemented yield curve control (YCC) to cap borrowing costs and fund World War II operations.</p>\n\n<p>Central to his thesis is the expectation that the Federal Reserve will adopt YCC once again. By capping interest rates on government bonds, the Fed would allow the Treasury to borrow cheaply while pushing banks to expand credit. Hayes envisions a \"bull steepening\" of the yield curve — a structure that favors financial institutions and encourages lending to small and medium-sized businesses.</p>\n\n<p>According to Hayes, the political trigger could come under former President Donald Trump. By 2026, he argued, Trump may consolidate control over the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC). With loyalists in key positions, Trump could revive quantitative easing (QE) on an unprecedented scale, ensuring liquidity expansion regardless of inflationary pressures. Hayes projects that between now and 2028, these policies could create approximately $15.2 trillion in new credit—an amount that would dwarf previous stimulus efforts.</p>\n\n<p>Using the historical relationship between U.S. credit expansion and Bitcoin's performance during the COVID-19 pandemic, Hayes calculated that Bitcoin could theoretically climb as high as $3.4 million per coin. While stressing that the exact number may not be realized, he argued that the \"million-dollar era\" for Bitcoin is inevitable under these conditions. For investors, his message was unambiguous: massive, coordinated money printing is profoundly bullish for Bitcoin. If his predictions prove accurate, the crypto market could experience unprecedented growth over the next few years.</p>\n\n<p>\"If the U.S. prints trillions to finance war and reindustrialization, Bitcoin is the natural hedge,\" Hayes concluded. \"This is the path to unprecedented price levels.\"</p>","thumbnail":"/api/assets/stock_images/bitcoin_cryptocurren_d3a19124.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-01-24T09:00:00.000Z","tags":["Arthur Hayes","Bitcoin","War Financing","Money Printing","KBW Summit"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":null,"author":null,"originalImageUrl":null,"scrapedAt":"2025-09-25T04:43:15.550Z","isScraped":0},{"id":"a1ec62d1-c0e6-4e3c-bfc2-25ee20f96b7d","outletId":"palantir","title":"Boeing partners with Palantir to accelerate AI adoption across defence and classified programmes","summary":"Boeing and Palantir announced at the annual Air, Space & Cyber Conference that they are working together to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) systems and software across Boeing Defense, Space & Security (BDS) factories and programmes.","body":"<p>BDS operates more than a dozen major production lines manufacturing aircraft, helicopters, satellites, spacecraft, missiles and weapons.

The USDH/USDC pair maintained its dollar peg, trading at 1.001 in initial sessions.</p><h3>The Battle for USDH Control</h3><p>The competition began on September 5, 2025, when Hyperliquid announced it would launch its own dollar-backed stablecoin through a community governance vote. The exchange currently holds nearly $6 billion in USDC deposits, representing about 7.5% of all USDC in circulation.</p><p>Major crypto firms quickly submitted proposals. Paxos offered deep PayPal integration and 95% revenue sharing. Frax Finance proposed backing USDH with its existing frxUSD. Sky (formerly MakerDAO) promised 4.85% returns and $25 million in ecosystem funding. Even Ethena initially competed with backing from BlackRock before withdrawing from the race.</p><p>Native Markets emerged as the unexpected winner despite offering only 50% revenue sharing compared to competitors' 95-100% offers. The team includes Max Fiege (early Hyperliquid investor), Anish Agnihotri (blockchain researcher), and MC Lader (former Uniswap Labs COO).</p><p>The selection process sparked controversy. Dragonfly's Haseeb Qureshi called the process \"a bit of a farce,\" claiming validators only considered Native Markets despite other serious proposals. Prediction markets showed Native Markets with 96% odds of winning three days before voting ended.</p><h3>USDH Technical Structure</h3><p>USDH operates natively on Hyperliquid's HyperEVM network, backed by cash and short-term U.S. Treasury securities. The stablecoin uses a dual reserve system: BlackRock manages off-chain assets while Superstate handles on-chain reserves through Stripe's Bridge platform.</p><p>Native Markets committed to splitting reserve earnings equally. Half goes to HYPE token buybacks through Hyperliquid's Assistance Fund, while the other half supports ecosystem growth programs. This model creates ongoing demand for HYPE tokens while funding platform development.</p><p>The stablecoin meets regulatory requirements in the U.S. and Europe, including compliance with the GENIUS Act. Unlike some competitors, USDH receives no special privileges on the platform, though it benefits from native integration.</p><h3>Market Impact and Revenue Potential</h3><p>USDH's launch could reshape Hyperliquid's economics. Dragonfly partner Omar Kanji estimates a complete migration from USDC to USDH could generate $220 million in annual revenue for HYPE holders, based on 4% yield assumptions. This shift would also reduce USDC's total supply by 7%.</p><p>The timing coincides with intense competition in decentralized perpetual trading. BNB Chain-based Aster DEX recently surpassed Hyperliquid in daily revenue ($10 million versus $3 million), though Hyperliquid maintains leadership in weekly volume and total value locked.</p><p>Hyperliquid processes $398 billion in perpetual derivatives monthly and $20 billion in spot trades. The platform controls over 35% of global decentralized perpetual activity, down from a peak of 70% in May 2025.</p><h3>Launch Strategy and Early Performance</h3><p>Native Markets implemented a phased rollout starting with capped testing at $800 per transaction. The initial phase targeted a limited user group before opening the USDH/USDC spot pair and removing transaction limits.</p><p>Early metrics show strong adoption within testing parameters. USDH reached 2.38 million tokens in total supply with a $2.37 million market cap shortly after launch. The stablecoin maintained its dollar peg throughout initial trading sessions.</p><p>The launch supports Hyperliquid's strategy to reduce dependence on external stablecoins. USDC currently represents over 90% of platform deposits, meaning most interest earnings flow to Circle rather than the Hyperliquid community.</p><h3>The Road Forward: Platform Independence</h3><p>USDH represents more than just another stablecoin launch. It marks Hyperliquid's evolution from a trading venue into a self-sufficient financial ecosystem. By capturing reserve yields internally, the platform can fund continued development while providing direct benefits to token holders.</p><p>The successful launch despite initial controversy demonstrates the power of ecosystem alignment over pure financial incentives. Native Markets' victory shows that deep platform integration and community relationships can outweigh more generous monetary offers.</p><p>However, challenges remain. USDH must prove it can compete with established stablecoins while maintaining stability and user trust. The real test comes as Hyperliquid faces growing competition from platforms like Aster that are rapidly gaining market share.</p>","thumbnail":"/api/assets/stock_images/cryptocurrency_tradi_429254e1.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-01-24T01:00:00.000Z","tags":["Hyperliquid","USDH","Stablecoin","Native Markets","HYPE"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":null,"author":null,"originalImageUrl":null,"scrapedAt":null,"isScraped":0},{"id":"f6726f98-c43e-4faf-9f0d-3870ef1ed690","outletId":"hyperliquid","title":"Bybit Crypto Insights Report: Aster Takes on Hyperliquid in the Perp DEX Boom","summary":"Bybit has released its latest Crypto Insights report analyzing the growth of decentralized perpetual exchanges and how Aster has emerged as a competitor to Hyperliquid.","body":"<h3>Dubai, UAE, September 24th, 2025, Chainwire</h3><p>Bybit, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has released its latest Bybit Crypto Insights report, analyzing the growth of decentralized perpetual exchanges and how Aster has emerged as a competitor to Hyperliquid.</p><p>Bybit has entered the onchain DEX race with Byreal, a Solana-based decentralized exchange now in beta and set for mainnet in early October. According to DefiLlama, Byreal has recorded more than $335.41M in cumulative trading volume since its beta launch, with daily volume peaking at $28.15M. TVL reached a high of $14.22M. Byreal uses hybrid liquidity models, including RFQ and CLMM mechanisms, to reduce slippage and curb MEV.</p><h3>The Rise of Aster</h3><p>Aster was formed from the merger of Astherus and ApolloX and launched in September with a token that surged more than 300 percent in hours. The ASTER token reached a $1.33 billion market cap within two days. Aster's features include MEV-free execution, hidden orders and dual trading interfaces designed for both retail and professional users. Plans for a zero-knowledge-powered chain and integration with the Binance ecosystem have strengthened its early positioning.</p><h3>How Aster stacks up against Hyperliquid</h3><p>Hyperliquid remains the leading decentralized perp DEX, recording about $200 billion in September trading volume compared with Aster's $20 billion. Its market capitalization is estimated at $13.2 billion, while Aster's is about $2.5 billion.</p><p>The two platforms reflect contrasting strategies. Hyperliquid built its own Layer 1 infrastructure with HyperBFT consensus and sub-second finality, delivering centralized exchange-like execution entirely on chain. Aster was mainly launched on BNB Chain with a modular design and emphasizes ecosystem integration, branding and token-driven growth.</p><h3>How is Hyperliquid different from dYdX/GMX?</h3><p>Legacy platforms such as dYdX and GMX emphasize decentralization as a core principle. By comparison, newer players like Hyperliquid and Aster prioritize speed, liquidity and user experience. Both sacrifice a degree of decentralization in favor of performance.</p><h3>Hyperliquid and beyond</h3><p>Bybit's report notes that ideals such as trustlessness and community governance are taking a back seat to execution and user experience. Hyperliquid has long been the sector's benchmark, having developed a blockchain optimized for trading, with fully on-chain matching and sub-second settlement.</p><p>Aster, however, has gained visibility not by building new infrastructure but by capturing attention through narrative, exchange backing and incentives. Its rapid rise illustrates how token launches, partnerships and endorsements can shift market dynamics.</p><h3>The road ahead</h3><p>The report concludes that decentralized perpetual DEXs are evolving into a model where decentralization is treated as a feature rather than a foundation. With centralized exchanges capable of launching their own versions, competition is expected to increase.</p><p>Hyperliquid, once seen as untouchable, now faces an existential challenge. Its infrastructure remains strong, but the market increasingly rewards storytelling, ecosystem incentives and cultural resonance alongside technical performance.</p>","thumbnail":"/api/assets/stock_images/cryptocurrency_tradi_365d69a2.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-01-24T00:30:00.000Z","tags":["Bybit","Aster","Hyperliquid","DEX","Perp Trading"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":null,"author":null,"originalImageUrl":null,"scrapedAt":null,"isScraped":0},{"id":"94b3c6dc-f044-4218-a5e4-a3dea196ede3","outletId":"palantir","title":"Palantir stock price target raised to $215 from $180 at BofA Securities","summary":"BofA Securities raised its price target on Palantir Technologies to $215.00 from $180.00 while maintaining a Buy rating, citing stronger growth projections across applications.","body":"<p>BofA Securities raised its price target on Palantir Technologies Inc.

Bittensor has drawn attention with ambitious predictions of a $1000 milestone, while ETF inflows and rising on-chain activity are helping Ethereum stay resilient. Both examples highlight how bold targets and established dominance influence short-term speculation.</p><p>At the same time, BlockDAG (BDAG) is making its mark with progress that can be measured. With almost $410M raised, a presale price fixed at $0.0013 until October 1, and 19,900 miners already being delivered, BlockDAG is showing real adoption rather than relying on projections. For those examining the best crypto to buy now, its mix of affordability and infrastructure makes it stand apart.</p><h3>Bittensor's Path Toward a $1000 Milestone</h3><p>The outlook for Bittensor (TAO) has gained attention with price forecasts suggesting a possible climb to $1000. Analysts point to its AI-focused blockchain framework as the reason behind this bold target, noting that decentralized intelligence markets and growing adoption could make it achievable.</p><p>Currently, TAO is consolidating around solid support levels, with technical patterns hinting at steady accumulation. Momentum is building, though volatility is still expected. For Bittensor to validate such projections, wider adoption and stronger participation from larger players will be essential.</p><p>If liquidity continues to grow and on-chain flows expand, TAO could emerge as a leading performer in the coming cycle. Until then, the $1000 target remains a bold vision, but one that ensures TAO stays in the spotlight.</p><h3>Ethereum Eyes a Bullish Breakout</h3><p>Ethereum remains central to the broader market, with analysis showing ETH has held firm at key levels while preparing for a possible breakout. Price charts suggest that breaking above $4,600 could open momentum toward earlier highs. Rising ETF inflows and a growing DeFi sector are adding weight to this case, reinforcing Ethereum's stability.</p><p>On-chain activity is also supportive, with active addresses increasing and staking demand holding strong. Analysts caution, however, that a convincing move higher will require strong trading volume, especially above $4,700. If this happens, ETH could build a stronger rally going into 2025.</p><p>For those reviewing the Ethereum (ETH) price analysis, it offers both technical reliability and institutional interest, keeping it firmly among the best crypto to buy now.</p><h3>BlockDAG's Miner Rollouts Signal Real Adoption</h3><p>BlockDAG (BDAG) is changing how presales are seen by proving real progress before its exchange launch. The project has already raised almost $410 million, with Batch 30 pricing set at $0.03. To mark its deployment milestone, BDAG has introduced a special presale price of $0.0013 per coin until October 1, giving one of the most notable entry points for 2025.</p><p>Unlike many projects that remain speculative, BlockDAG has already shipped more than 19,900 miner units, allowing the community to directly support network validation. A live demo recently showed how the X1 mobile miner paired with X10 hardware can generate up to 200 BDAG daily, combining easy access for casual users with scalable infrastructure.</p><p>In addition to mining, BlockDAG's presale dashboard (Dashboard V4) offers features similar to an exchange, including live charts, wallet tracking, and referral leaderboards, bringing transparency to the process. Adoption is further supported by 3 million app users and confirmed listings on more than 20 exchanges, creating strong liquidity once live. For those reviewing the best crypto to buy and mine, BlockDAG's miner deliveries show why it stands as one of the strongest choices.</p><h3>Closing Perspective</h3><p>The Bittensor (TAO) outlook draws attention with its bold $1000 target, while the Ethereum (ETH) price analysis highlights steady resilience supported by ETF inflows and growing DeFi activity. Both continue to shape discussions in the market, but their performance still depends heavily on technical signals and sentiment.</p><p>BlockDAG (BDAG), on the other hand, presents a different case built on infrastructure, adoption, and clear delivery.

Until now it was positioned only as an air-launched missile, which, of course, is not a problem for the United States, but may be less attractive for other potential operators.</p><p>According to the company, the conversion of the Barracuda-500 missile, which has a range of 900 km and carries a 50 kg warhead, to a ground-launched configuration was minimal, and the booster solution is modular. This is a simple kit that can be adapted to different solid-fuel motors from various suppliers, which should prevent the formation of a narrow supply bottleneck.</p><p>Overall, this fully corresponds to the company's concept, which declares that Barracuda cruise missiles can be assembled with a screwdriver. As for the launcher itself, Anduril does not tie itself to a specific one and declares the possibility of mounting a transport-launch container on already existing systems, for example the HIMARS, Patriot SAM system, and Harpoon launchers. But Anduril plans to create its own launchers in the dimensions of a standard shipping container.</p><p>In the published video, several details of the booster and the missile itself can be seen. In particular, on the Barracuda-500 cruise missile there appears to be a radio-transparent area on the underside of the fuselage, which may indicate the use of the TERCOM-type navigation system that compares terrain profiles with a reference. This would make the missile effectively independent of satellite navigation systems.</p><p>At the same time, it should be taken into account that the flight range of the Barracuda-500 missile after ground launch may be less than from an aircraft. For air launch, the company declares 900 km, while during ground launch the range may decrease to 600-700 km. The possibility of mass launches from ground platforms can, however, compensate for its small 50 kg warhead.</p><p>It should also be noted that Anduril has already declared the capability to produce several thousand Barracuda-500 missiles per year. This parameter is expected to be achieved by the end of 2026. Additionally, Anduril is already strongly hinting that their development will be useful not only for the United States but also for allies. Ground launch is, moreover, more relevant for the European theater of operations.</p><p>Anduril's decision with the Barracuda-500 missile may be of interest to the Armed Forces of Ukraine not only in terms of the possibility of purchasing or receiving these missiles, but also for assessing the feasibility of initiating similar work for the ERAM cruise missiles, which are being ordered for Ukraine for $825 million. These are conceptually similar miniature cruise missiles from Zone 5 Technologies and CoAspire, which are designed for use from aircraft. At the same time, the conversion of the ERAM missiles to ground launch would potentially increase their relevance for Ukrainian operators.</p>","thumbnail":"/api/assets/stock_images/military_defense_aer_ab357ee1.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-01-23T19:00:00.000Z","tags":["Anduril","Barracuda-500","Ukraine","Ground Launch","ERAM"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":null,"author":null,"originalImageUrl":null,"scrapedAt":null,"isScraped":0},{"id":"f2d42058-e45a-4ed3-aee9-c3bb0bfd370e","outletId":"a60f82a2-2d56-4889-b312-28c232c660f9","title":"Anduril nears first drone wingman flight, promises early autonomy","summary":"Anduril is weeks away from flying its proposed U.S. Air Force collaborative combat aircraft for the first time, with plans for semiautonomous operation from takeoff.","body":"<p>NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. — Anduril is weeks away from flying its proposed U.S. Air Force collaborative combat aircraft for the first time, and the company said it is working to ensure its drone wingman will be semiautonomous from takeoff.</p><p>Air Force Secretary Troy Meink said Monday that Anduril's collaborative combat aircraft, or CCA, will take its first flight in mid-October. Meink made his comments in a roundtable with reporters at the Air & Space Forces Association's Air Space Cyber conference in National Harbor, Maryland.</p><p>Anduril's drone, designated the YFQ-44A, is one of two that the Air Force is considering for its first increment of the CCA program, along with General Atomics' YFQ-42A. General Atomics' CCA took flight for the first time in August at an unidentified location in California.</p><p>In a briefing with reporters Monday, Anduril officials said they were \"within spitting distance\" of the YFQ-44A's first flight, and expressed confidence in their ability to adhere to the program's schedule.</p><p>Developing a fleet of semiautonomous CCAs to fly alongside advanced crewed fighters like the F-35 and F-47 is a top priority for the Air Force. The service wants a fleet of at least 1,000 CCAs to conduct strike missions, collect reconnaissance, carry out jamming operations and even serve as decoys to lure enemy fire away from the fighters.</p><p>The Air Force announced in April 2024 that Anduril and General Atomics had won the first CCA contracts, and the service plans to develop additional CCA versions in an incremental approach.</p><p>In a graphic posted online in May, Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. David Allvin said CCAs would have stealth comparable to that of the F-35, a combat radius of more than 700 nautical miles — greater than the F-35A and F-22 — and be operational later this decade.</p><p>Anduril is now in the final stages before beginning the YFQ-44A's flight testing, with multiple vehicles undergoing ground testing at the company's test facility, said Diem Salmon, the company's vice president for air dominance and strike.</p><p>Having several copies of its CCA available will make it easier to launch a \"more expansive flight test profile\" in 2026, Salmon said.</p><p>Anduril deferred to the Air Force when asked about Meink's prediction of a mid-October first flight.</p><p>From the start, Salmon said, Anduril's goal has been to ensure its CCA is semiautonomous in all aspects, from takeoff to flight to landing. The YFQ-44A has already been conducting semiautonomous taxiing, she said, which means \"we hit a button, it goes to the points that's been designated by that vehicle, completes its taxi [and] returns.\"</p><p>Similarly, she said, Anduril wants the YFQ-44A's first flight to involve takeoff and landing at the push of a button.</p><p>\"There is no stick and throttle,\" Salmon said. \"It will be able to execute the actual first flight profile, preplanned, using autonomy software on the vehicle.\"</p><p>While the YFQ-44A's first flight will not be remotely piloted by humans, Salmon said, there will still be humans on the ground overseeing what the CCA does.</p><p>General Atomics spokesman C. Mark Brinkley said it conducts first flights of all new aircraft, including the YFQ-42A, with remotely piloted flights to better collect data and minimize risk.</p><p>\"The performance data obtained this way is invaluable to the success of our aircraft programs,\" Brinkley said. \"We have no reason to and no interest in doing it any other way.\"</p><p>Brinkley said General Atomics' autonomy track record is proven, and drones such as the Gray Eagle, Reaper, Avenger and others regularly use the company's automatic takeoff and landing capability.</p><p>\"YFQ-42A is designed for semiautonomous flight, and that's not even in question,\" Brinkley said. \"This is like saying I never expected my baby to crawl, but go straight from the crib to the Air Force Marathon.\"</p><p>Salmon said Anduril's decision to jump straight to semiautonomous flight with the YFQ-44A meant its engineers had to work hard to get the software right, and that has taken more time.</p><p>\"The team has been heads down, getting to that goal for CCA,\" Salmon said. \"There's just a little bit more on the software development side that needs to get wrung out. That's what's currently driving our schedule right now.\"</p><p>But achieving semiautonomous flight early, even if it means a later first flight, will allow Anduril to progress through testing more quickly, she said.</p><p>\"That's going to allow us to leapfrog the overall test plan, because we are tackling that hard part first,\" Salmon said.</p><p>Jason Levin, Anduril's senior vice president of engineering for air dominance and strike, also said the company did not have its own ground control station for a human to handle takeoff and landing, and would have had to develop one if it didn't go straight to semiautonomous flight. That would have been \"a step backwards, because we really want to get to this semiautonomous thing and wring out that problem.\"</p><p>Levin said development of the company's CCA has moved quickly, from passing its preliminary design review in 2024 to launching ground testing in May. That is the same month General Atomics' CCA began ground testing.</p><p>The software required to semiautonomously fly the YFQ-44A required a major in-house development effort and a \"clean sheet\" design, Levin said. The company has developed similar software for other products, he said.</p><p>\"But to get to the level of rigor and complexity for CCA has been a different beast to handle,\" Levin said. \"It's been a parallel effort, [with] the hardware teams working everything from electrical systems, avionics, fuel system and the jet itself, as well as the software\" at the same time.</p><p>Levin said Anduril's CCA will first fly with only its semiautonomous flight capabilities intact, and the programming to carry out missions will come later.</p><p>Integrating the software with the YFQ-44A's avionics and other hardware has been the greatest challenge so far, Levin said.</p><p>Anduril's timeline for first flight is a slight slip from its predictions earlier this year. After Anduril's CCA entered ground testing in May, the company said it expected to begin flight tests this summer.</p><p>Anduril officials downplayed the significance of conducting their first flight in the fall instead of the summer.</p><p>\"It was not a race to get to first flight as fast as humanly possible,\" Salmon said. \"It was, how do we field this really advanced and novel capability as fast as we can? And with that comes the recognition that the autonomy is the hard part here.\"</p>","thumbnail":"/api/assets/stock_images/military_defense_aer_f69494aa.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-01-23T18:30:00.000Z","tags":["Anduril","Drone Wingman","YFQ-44A","CCA","Autonomy"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":null,"author":null,"originalImageUrl":null,"scrapedAt":null,"isScraped":0},{"id":"170f8653-f3e6-402b-ab88-931776b59e72","outletId":"a60f82a2-2d56-4889-b312-28c232c660f9","title":"Anduril Repurposes Barracuda Drone For Surface Launch Using A Booster Kit To Enable Mass Production Of Fires","summary":"Anduril tested a prototype surface-launched Barracuda-500 on September 23, using a booster kit to convert an AAV into an affordable, mass-producible long-range strike.","body":"<p>On 23 September, 2025, Anduril reported the first successful surface-launched flight of its prototype Barracuda-500, a milestone the company positions as a response to a pressing shortfall in long-range precision fires. The trial, held at a U.S. test range and financed internally by the firm, demonstrates a surface launch kit, launcher and booster combination that converts an air-launched design into a ground-deployed strike asset. This development matters because defense analysts consistently cite inadequate stockpiles of long-range munitions as a critical vulnerability in potential high-intensity conflicts.</p><p>Anduril's Barracuda family was conceived to address a simple diagnosis: Western militaries need far larger inventories of precision standoff weapons than current acquisition models anticipate, and those inventories must be producible quickly and at lower unit cost. The company has already shown the baseline Barracuda in pallet and lug launch formats for U.S. Air Force and U.S. Army test programs; the surface-launched Barracuda-500 extends that lineage by adding a modular solid rocket booster that enables ground deployment while maintaining the same core airframe and guidance systems.</p><p>The operational history and development path for Barracuda is short but purposeful. Anduril first introduced the Barracuda family as an autonomous air vehicle and cruise missile concept aimed at delivering massed precision effects. Early demonstrations included pallet launches under the Air Force Enterprise Test Vehicle (ETV) project and lug launches for the Army's High-Speed Maneuverable Missile (HSMM) effort. The surface-launch test marks the next stage in a tightly sequenced development plan designed to prove compatibility across multiple launch platforms and operational scenarios.</p><p>When compared with existing long-range strike systems the Barracuda-500 pursues a different cost and production hypothesis. Traditional cruise missiles and long-range precision munitions, from legacy tactical cruise missiles to larger naval or air-launched systems, are often expensive, complex and produced in limited lots. The Barracuda approach emphasizes modularity, high parts commonality and compatibility with multiple launch platforms, including fielded launchers such as HIMARS and naval vertical launch systems, to drive down unit costs and enable rapid scaling of production.</p><p>The strategic implications of a fieldable surface-launched Barracuda-500 are multifold. Geopolitically, an affordable, mass-producible long-range option alters deterrence by increasing the credible inventory a nation or coalition can maintain for both conventional and escalation-managed operations. Producing thousands of units per year, Anduril projects the capacity for high single-digit thousands annually regardless of variant or launch modality by the end of next year, would permit sustained operations that current stockpile planning does not support.</p><p>There are, however, trade-offs to consider. The emphasis on producibility and modular boosters implies design compromises between cost and some aspects of performance when compared to the most capable but costly cruise missiles. Integration with legacy launchers reduces barriers to fielding but still requires testing, certification and logistics updates. And the promise of mass production will hinge on supply chain realities and procurement decisions by services that historically favor proven, if expensive, solutions over newer alternatives.</p><p>Anduril's surface-launched Barracuda-500 test signals more than a demonstrator milestone; it represents a deliberate industrial and operational argument that long-range precision fires must move from scarcity to scale. By prioritising commonality, modular booster kits compatible with allied manufacture, and launcher-agnostic employment, the programme reframes how planners can think about inventories, sustainment and joint fires. If the company meets its stated production and integration targets, the surface-launched Barracuda-500 could become a template for how defense contractors approach the mass production challenge that defines contemporary military procurement.</p>","thumbnail":"/api/assets/stock_images/military_defense_aer_4dde1af9.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-01-23T18:00:00.000Z","tags":["Anduril","Barracuda-500","Surface Launch","Defense","Missiles"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":null,"author":null,"originalImageUrl":null,"scrapedAt":null,"isScraped":0},{"id":"477d529c-bef1-4e84-a6a1-dca0b2d4020f","outletId":"k-star","title":"Can you be sued for defaming virtual K-pop stars?

In his latest essay, Hayes forecast that Bitcoin could soar past $250,000 by the end of 2025, fueled by growing U.S. liquidity, Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, and potential political shifts. He expects the strongest momentum to build between late Q3 and early Q4 of 2025, setting the stage for significant upward price movement.</p>\n\n<p>Hayes also pointed to the potential political influence of President Donald Trump. He suggested that Trump could reshape the Federal Reserve by appointing allies who favor his economic philosophy, thereby enabling more aggressive monetary expansion. Such a shift, Hayes argues, would increase systemic liquidity and lift hard assets like Bitcoin to new record highs.</p>\n\n<p>To illustrate his point, Hayes compared today's U.S. economy to the World War II era, when the Federal Reserve controlled bond yields between 1942 and 1951 to finance military spending. At that time, the central bank capped short-term Treasury yields at 0.675% and long-term yields at 2.5%, allowing the government to borrow cheaply and channel funds into defense production. He believes a similar policy could emerge under Trump's leadership, potentially directed by economic advisors like Scott Bessent, who Hayes describes as understanding the mechanics of debt monetization.</p>\n\n<p>Hayes also referenced the Federal Reserve's response to the COVID-19 crisis, during which it purchased roughly 40% of all Treasury debt and helped expand bank lending by $2.5 trillion. Extrapolating from this precedent, he projected that a renewed yield curve program under Trump could generate up to $15.2 trillion in new credit by 2028. According to Hayes, Bitcoin has historically tracked credit growth, with price increases showing a measurable correlation to monetary expansion.</p>\n\n<p>Hayes remains deeply optimistic about Bitcoin's future, viewing U.S. monetary policy and political dynamics as key drivers of liquidity growth. His bold prediction of $250,000 by late 2025 reflects not only faith in the cryptocurrency's resilience but also a conviction that global economic conditions are aligning in its favor.</p>","thumbnail":"/api/assets/stock_images/financial_markets_st_b27ac578.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-01-23T15:30:00.000Z","tags":["Arthur Hayes","Bitcoin","Up Only","Crypto Season","Price Prediction"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":null,"author":null,"originalImageUrl":null,"scrapedAt":"2025-09-25T04:43:38.816Z","isScraped":0},{"id":"1ce8da3d-0ae8-48bb-8694-6d643413e550","outletId":"dex","title":"PancakeSwap Expands Crosschain Swaps on Solana Amid Rising DEX Competition","summary":"PancakeSwap has expanded its crosschain swap feature to the Solana network, allowing users to swap tokens across multiple blockchains in a single transaction as decentralized exchange activity intensifies.","body":"<p>PancakeSwap has expanded its crosschain swap feature to the Solana network, allowing users to swap tokens across multiple blockchains in a single transaction.

As military operations become increasingly data-driven, the company's role is expanding within the U.S. and among its allies.","body":"<p>Forgive U.S. military contractors their god complex: after all, their resurrection and rebirth followed what became known as the \"last supper\". On July 21, 1993, Deputy Secretary of Defense William Perry told a meeting of industry CEOs that, with the Cold War over and spending cuts incoming, they would have to consolidate to survive. The resulting decades of M&A created a select group dubbed the \"primes\", the biggest of which – RTX, Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman – control a large chunk of the Pentagon's budget.</p>\n\n<p>Formed in 2003 by PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel, Palantir did not achieve this feat through sheer scale. The company, which sells subscriptions to defence and organisation-management software incorporating artificial intelligence, is expected to generate $4.2 billion of revenue in 2025, according to analysts polled by Visible Alpha. That's way off the $67 billion average forecast for RTX, Lockheed and Northrop. But while they trade on average at only around 2 times forecast 2025 sales, Palantir trades at 23 times, giving it a market cap of around $190 billion.</p>\n\n<p>Part of this may well be its meme-like status. Retail investors poured $1.2 billion into Palantir stock in July. Even among this loftily valued crew, though, the company stands out. Tesla – to pick one highly valued stock that largely validated its hype – notched a peak multiple of around 20 times sales in 2010. For Palantir to get even to that level, its revenue would have to grow 35% a year until 2030.</p>\n\n<p>It's on track to get there right now, at least. Palantir's sales by 48% year-over-year in its most recent quarter. It may not manufacture guns, bombs or tanks. But academic philosopher-turned-CEO Alex Karp can already boast of being the supplier of choice for the new front of superpower warfare: software. Palantir is the prime player on nine U.S. Army \"programs of record\", or committed funding streams. This summer alone, the company won a $10 billion, decade-long deal to consolidate 75 different services agreements with the Army. Palantir's recently expanded $1.3 billion contract for \"Maven Smart Systems\" is a case in point of how its influence could grow.</p>\n\n<p>At the risk of rehashing Sun Tzu, military operations have always been about command and control: having sufficient oversight of military resources, supply chains and enemy whereabouts to quickly and efficiently make decisions. The rise of artificial intelligence-enabled drones and cyber warfare confronts generals with rapidly increasing complexity. Maven hoovers up files, emails and imaging and blends them with satellite, troop movement and supply data to provide a clearer lay of the land.</p>\n\n<p>Palantir had already made inroads with senior staff with its Gotham software, first deployed over a decade ago to help U.S. personnel in Afghanistan identify roadside bombs. Many in attendance at July's LANDEURO defence conference in Germany raved about it. Rivals, meanwhile, talked of Palantir's obvious objective: to provide not just various products, but to become the de facto \"mainframe\" that can connect and centralise operations. RTX and Lockheed's control of intelligence systems, meanwhile, is already under threat.</p>\n\n<p>The same goes for Western allies, too. In March, NATO also signed up to Maven. For at least the next five years, Palantir's product will be the platform for bringing together all combined information from the 32-nation alliance.</p>\n\n<p>The scuttlebutt at LANDEURO, though, was that non-U.S. staff are not all quite so enamored of Maven as their American peers. The problem is simple. For Palantir's extremely expensive product to work to its full potential, every NATO nation needs to share its data with the company and Washington. Amid a belligerent U.S. turn on trade and even territorial claims on Canada and Greenland, not all of them may want to. Reciprocity is wanting, too. Washington's own Government Accountability Office has questioned whether the Pentagon provides allies with sufficient information.</p>\n\n<p>These constraints may limit future growth for Palantir's non-U.S. revenue. In the second quarter of 2024, 36% of group sales came from outside the United States. In the same period this year, that proportion shrank to 27%.</p>\n\n<p>For Karp and Thiel, this may not matter. Uncle Sam is still the world's biggest defence spender. Moreover, its AI-enabled data product for the private sector, dubbed Foundry, has won glowing testimonials from companies like Hertz, United Airlines, and Walgreens, Karp has bombastically predicted that non-government sales, which last year were 45% of overall revenue, will grow tenfold by 2030 – an annual jump of 60%. He managed a 93% year-on-year rate of U.S. commercial sales expansion in the second quarter.</p>\n\n<p>Tot it up, and Morningstar analysts suggest that Palantir may take a chunky 3% of a global software market that could be worth $1.6 trillion by 2033. The company's current valuation sits at a 7.6 times multiple of the implied $48 billion of revenue, compared with 5.4 for Microsoft relative to the same year.</p>\n\n<p>Meanwhile, choosing to forego Palantir's capabilities may become increasingly costly and inconvenient for uneasy military allies. The Pentagon still leads the Western alliance; not being on its operating system may not be tenable forever. As a recent 15% mini-slump in the stock implies, investors have priced shares to perfection. But Karp has a not-entirely-implausible path to dominance that the original primes can only envy.</p>","thumbnail":"/api/assets/thumbnails/palantir_stock_analysis.jpg","publishedAt":"2025-01-23T10:00:00.000Z","tags":["Palantir","Defense","AI","Stocks","Technology"],"viewCount":0,"sourceUrl":null,"author":null,"originalImageUrl":null,"scrapedAt":"2025-09-25T04:39:04.692Z","isScraped":0},{"id":"59826864-fbb0-462f-8aaf-493e383aff9e","outletId":"80a9a613-b6e8-4431-a0c2-1f531d43a9c0","title":"Story Price Prediction: Will $IP Extend Its Rally After Hitting All-Time High?","summary":"Crypto markets face heightened uncertainty as September corrections weigh on major tokens, yet Story's $IP continues to capture momentum with bold IP tokenization plans.

Today, the valuation stands at roughly $1.59 trillion. This remains an enormous figure, but it shows the sector has slipped from earlier highs.</p><p>Investors are now questioning if the current phase can match past explosive growth. This divergence underscores a broader sense of unpredictability in digital assets, as even established tokens like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana are experiencing notable volatility.</p><p>The broader market downturn in September is not surprising, given historical patterns of red months, but it still contributes to heightened caution among traders. Adding to the uncertainty is the way technical patterns are evolving across the board.</p><p>Many cryptocurrencies are showing signs of fatigue after recent rallies, with pullbacks forming across different timeframes.

Centralized systems often restrict third-party integrations, creating bottlenecks for scalability and interoperability in AI agent development.
