🔍 Big developments in crypto policy!

The UK Treasury has announced plans to collaborate with the United States to boost innovation in the cryptocurrency sector.

In a statement released on April 30, UK Finance Minister Rachel Reeves outlined the “Change Plan ”—a regulatory initiative aimed at creating new rules for crypto asset providers like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The goal? Strengthen investor confidence and fuel industry growth.

Reeves recently met with US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent in Washington to discuss cross-border cooperation on digital asset regulation. They’re working closely through the UK-US Financial Regulatory Working Group, including exploring ideas from SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce.

This follows recent pro-crypto moves by the UK government, like revising the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 in January to ease restrictions on staking services—marking a clear shift toward fostering innovation.

💡 The message is clear: the UK wants to be "the best place for innovation in the world ."

David Marcus, former PayPal President and current CEO of Lightspark, announced the launch of Spark, a new Bitcoin Layer-2 solution compatible with the Lightning Network.

Unveiled at Lightspark’s first partner summit, Lightspark Sync, Spark enables non-custodial use of Bitcoin and stablecoins, enhancing transaction speed and cost-efficiency.

The platform builds on Lightspark’s Universal Money Address (UMA) standard, introducing features like tipping, subscriptions, and invoicing over Lightning, while also integrating with legacy banking systems for broader accessibility.

Marcus aims to position Bitcoin as a global settlement layer, addressing Lightning’s complexity and reliability issues to make it enterprise-grade for institutions and banks.

BREAKING: #Tether Treasury just minted 2 billion #USDT in two transactions on the Ethereum network (via WhaleAlert).

According to CEO Paolo Ardoino, the newly minted USDT is a replenishment of inventory, part of routine operations.

Notably, this is an authorized but unissued transaction — meaning these tokens will be held as reserve inventory for future issuance requests & chain swaps.

🚨Ethereum Gas Fees Drop ⛽

#ethereum 's gas fees have reached a notably low level, with the cost of revoking a single token authorization approximately $0.01. This presents an opportunity for users to utilize tools like RevokeCash and Rabby to cancel any uncertain or potentially unsafe authorizations. Even when processing hundreds of authorizations in bulk, the cost remains just a few dollars, effectively mitigating potential high-risk exposures.

🐳💰 A crypto whale just made waves in the Solana (SOL) universe!

It's a stark reminder that even the biggest players can't escape the risks of the crypto market. Stay vigilant, folks! 🌊📉

DWF Labs has announced a notable $25 million investment in World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a decentralized finance protocol with ties to the Trump family. This investment is seen as a significant step into the U.S. market for DWF Labs, which plans to open an office in New York City to foster relationships with regulators and financial institutions. The investment, which highlights DWF's confidence in the U.S. as a growing region for institutional crypto adoption, comes amidst existing political controversies surrounding WLFI.

Notably, there are growing concerns about the potential for financial misconduct associated with this investment. Allegations have surfaced regarding the governance and revenue distribution of WLFI, indicating that a substantial portion of its earnings may directly benefit Trump's family. Furthermore, DWF Labs itself has faced prior accusations of market manipulation, which contributes to the skepticism regarding the legitimacy of this partnership.

As DWF Labs integrates into the U.S. crypto landscape, it aims to leverage its position to provide liquidity for WLFI’s upcoming stablecoin, USD1, but the circumstances surrounding this investment warrant careful scrutiny from the crypto community and regulatory bodies alike.

Zach Shapiro, the policy director at the Bitcoin Policy Institute (BPI), remarked that if the U.S. were to announce plans to acquire one million bitcoins, it could trigger significant global disruption, potentially sending the price of #bitcoin soaring to approximately one million dollars.

Matthew Pines, the executive director of BPI, highlighted that the United States' ambition to become a Bitcoin superpower depends on the quantity of Bitcoin it holds. This will provide a standard for assessing how successfully U.S. President Donald Trump meets this declared goal.

"MANTRA community - we want to assure you that MANTRA is fundamentally strong. Today’s activity was triggered by reckless liquidations, not anything to do with the project. One thing we want to be clear on: this was not our team. We are looking into it and will share more details about what happened as soon as we can."

Optimistic Ethereum, now primarily referred to as Optimism or OP Mainnet, is a layer-2 scaling solution for Ethereum focused on improving transaction speed and reducing costs while maintaining security through optimistic rollups.

Here's the latest based on recent activity:

Superchain Expansion: Optimism is pushing its "Superchain" vision, a network of interoperable layer-2 blockchains built on the open-source OP Stack. Recent posts highlight integrations like Unichain, with incentives starting April 15, 2025, and Soneium's growth strengthening the ecosystem.

Retro Funding: Optimism continues its Retroactive Public Goods Funding (RetroPGF), rewarding developers and projects that contribute to Ethereum’s ecosystem. A recent call for applications for the next round closes April 27, 2025, emphasizing fair rewards based on impact, not marketing. Over 2 million OP tokens were allocated this month for dev tooling and onchain builders.

Performance and Governance: The OP token governs the Optimism Collective, a decentralized system driving ecosystem growth. As of early 2025, OP’s price is around $0.65-$0.69 USD, with a market cap of about $1.14 billion. Q4 2024 saw an 11.3% increase in total value locked (TVL) to $756.1 million, though price performance remained flat, causing a dip in market cap rank.

Open-Source Commitment: Optimism is doubling down on open-sourcing its tech, with 131 GitHub repositories and contributions like the OP Stack powering chains like OP Mainnet and Base. This aligns with their mission to scale Ethereum collaboratively.

From Pensions to Crypto: The Bold New Frontier of Retirement Investing

Pension funds are increasingly exploring investments in cryptocurrencies, particularly Bitcoin, as part of their diversification and growth strategies. This trend is evident across several countries:

United States: The Michigan State Retirement Fund invested approximately $6.6 million in the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF in July 2024. Similarly, the State of Wisconsin Investment Board holds significant positions in the iShares Bitcoin Trust and the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust. Jersey City's pension fund is also considering similar allocations.

Japan: The Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF), the world's largest pension fund, is exploring Bitcoin as a potential diversification tool. In March 2024, GPIF initiated a five-year research plan to assess innovative investment strategies, including cryptocurrencies.

Norway: The Norwegian Government Pension Fund has invested indirectly in #cryptocurrencies by holding shares in companies like MicroStrategy, MARA (formerly Marathon Digital), Coinbase, and Block Inc., which have Bitcoin on their balance sheets. Analysts estimate that the Norwegian fund indirectly owns over 2,440 BTC.

Australia: In May 2024, AMP, one of Australia's largest pension funds, invested $27 million in Bitcoin, marking it as the first major Australian pension fund to adopt digital assets. This investment represents a modest 0.05% of AMP's $57 billion assets under management.

On August 15, 2010, Bitcoin broke.

A bug in Block 74638 created 184 billion BTC out of thin air. That’s not a typo. Two outputs of 92 billion BTC each slipped through because the code didn’t check for integer overflow. The system just accepted it. Bitcoin’s sacred 21 million? Completely ignored.

This wasn’t a theoretical flaw. It actually happened. And it proved something most people still don’t understand.

Bitcoin’s scarcity is not protected by code. It’s protected by people.

The only reason #bitcoin didn’t die that day is because someone noticed. A fix was pushed. A patched client was released. Nodes upgraded. Within five hours, the invalid block was erased from consensus. Bitcoin’s monetary policy was rescued, not by the protocol, but by the humans running it.

That’s the truth behind the “trustless” narrative. Code did not save Bitcoin. The community did.

Scarcity was never a guarantee. It was a fight. And it still is.

You may want to know why $BNB , $CAKE and $BNX tokens are going up while the rest of the market is just ranging.

BNB chain is heating up traders are now rushing to trade memecoins on BNB chain. We all know people are much more interested in trading on memecoins than the utility tokens. But how is this making these tokens go up?

Well let me explain how.

To trade memecoins Traders need BNB to buy whatever memecoins they're buying if they're not using BNB to buy they still need BNB to pay the gas fee. Just like solana was going up when people were trading sol memecoins.

Cake is going up because cakeswap is the most used SWAP on BNB chain. Just like Raydium is the most used swap on #solana and Ray was going up.

What BNX have to do with it? BNB chain meme coins are l quickly launched on Four.meme platform and BNX owns it.
BinaryX has rebranded to Four and now updating its token symbol from BNX to FORM.

Why are they changing it to form but not FOUR?

The decision to change the token symbol from BNX to $FORM was influenced by the widespread use of the FOUR symbol across various projects,This could leadto potential confusion within the community.

⚡️Digital Asset Funds Experience Significant Outflows Amid Global Uncertainty

investors are increasingly withdrawing from digital assets as these investments face declining popularity due to rising geopolitical and economic uncertainties. Last week alone, global digital asset funds saw a loss of $1.7 billion, as reported by CoinShares. This brings the total outflow over the past five weeks to $6.4 billion. In the United States, bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have experienced the longest streak of weekly outflows since their debut in January 2024, with investors pulling out more than $5.4 billion during this period.

U.S. President Donald Trump has expressed support for cryptocurrencies, notably through the order to establish a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve. However, this support has not been sufficient to alleviate concerns stemming from tariff-induced trade tensions and monetary policy challenges. Despite the presidential backing, the digital asset market continues to face significant pressure.

Bitcoin has seen a substantial decline, dropping over 21% in the last three months to approximately $83,000. The broader CoinDesk 20 Index (CD20) has also suffered, losing around 34.6% of its value during the same timeframe. These figures highlight the ongoing volatility and uncertainty within the digital asset sector, as investors remain cautious amid the current global economic landscape.

🚨🚨🚨 New Cryptojacking Malware MassJacker Targets Cryptocurrency Transactions

A new type of crypto-jacking malware known as MassJacker is targeting users who download pirated software. The malware hijacks #cryptocurrency transactions by replacing stored addresses. The malware originates from the website pesktop[dot]com, where unsuspecting users may inadvertently infect their devices. Once installed, MassJacker swaps out crypto addresses stored on the clipboard application for those controlled by the attacker.

CyberArk reports that 778,531 unique wallets are linked to the theft, with only 423 holding crypto assets, totaling approximately $336,700 as of August. Notably, one wallet contained over 600 Solana (SOL) worth around $87,000 and had a history of holding NFTs like Gorilla Reborn and Susanoo. An analysis revealed 1,184 transactions since March 11, 2022, and the wallet's owner engaged in decentralized finance activities in November 2024, swapping tokens such as Jupiter (JUP), Uniswap (UNI), USDC, and Raydium (RAY).

Cryptocurrency malware has been around since Coinhive released the first cryptojacking script in 2017. In February 2025, Kaspersky Labs found malware in app-making kits for Android and iOS that could scan images for crypto seed phrases. In October 2024, Checkmarx discovered crypto-stealing malware in the Python Package Index. Other malware has also targeted macOS devices.

🚨BREAKING NEWS: Ripple Secures Full Regulatory Approval from Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) for Crypto Payment Services in UAE

Ripple, a leading blockchain payment provider, has achieved full regulatory approval from the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) to offer cross-border cryptocurrency payment services in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The company announced on March 13 that it had obtained its DFSA license, granting it the ability to operate within the Dubai International Financial Center (DIFC), a prominent free-economic zone in the UAE with its own tax policies and regulatory framework.

This milestone comes nearly six months after Ripple received in-principle approval for the DFSA license. On October 1, 2024, Ripple disclosed its efforts to secure the license as part of its broader strategy to expand its digital asset infrastructure in the UAE. The approval marks a significant step in Ripple's mission to enhance its presence in the region and provide innovative crypto-based payment solutions.

This development underscores the UAE's growing role as a hub for blockchain and #cryptocurrency innovation, as well as Ripple's commitment to complying with regulatory standards while expanding its global footprint.
