A document recovered from the phone of crypto lobbyist Mauricio Novelli outlines an alleged $5 million payment arrangement tied to Argentine President Javier Milei’s promotion of the Libra memecoin.  The document—created days before Milei’s post about the token—details staged payments based on public endorsements of LIBRA and entering an advisory deal with Hayden Davis. Argentinian investigators also uncovered call records that suggest coordinated communication and attempts to cover up Milei’s involvement among key figures around the time of the launch. Files uncovered by forensic computing experts within Argentina’s Public Prosecutor’s Office appear to have revealed a $5 million payment agreement…

Vitalik Buterin has proposed merging Ethereum’s consensus and execution node software to simplify validator operations and lower technical barriers.

The proposal is designed to simplify node setup and encourage broader participation in Ethereum…

Bank of England Deputy Governor Sarah Breeden confirmed the central bank is “genuinely open” to revising proposed stablecoin holding limits of £20,000 per individual and £10 million (AU$18.9 million) per business.

Industry representatives criticised the caps as unworkable and difficult to enforce in secondary markets.

Some of Bitcoin’s most trusted bottom signals rest on the simple assumption that when old coins move, something meaningful has changed.Traders and analysts often interpret that as renewed selling, fresh distribution, or signs that the market hasn’t bottomed. That logic helped turn HODL Waves, Coin Days Destroyed, and long-term holder supply into some of the most widely used metrics in Bitcoin cycle analysis.The problem with that is that Bitcoin’s blockchain records movements and has no way of showing the motive behind them.On Nov. 22, 2025, Coinbase said it was transferring BTC and ETH from its legacy wallets to new internal…

Washington has spent years talking about a US CBDC as a distant possibility. It was an abstract policy idea, safely contained inside white papers and partisan messaging. But then the Senate put a number on it and made it very real.On March 2, senators voted 84-6 to invoke cloture on the motion to proceed to H.R. 6644, a broad housing and banking package that would bar the Federal Reserve from issuing a CBDC until the end of 2030.Only six senators voted no. Cory Booker voted present, and nine senators did not vote.That margin meant that a CBDC stopped being a…
