A federal judge dismissed the criminal case against Milei, his sister Karina and nine others, ruling that posting about LIBRA did not itself constitute fraud. The decision contrasts with a parliamentary investigation that found Milei played an essential role in promoting the token and attracting investors.

Five investors are challenging their exclusion from the case and could appeal the dismissal if reinstated, while opposition lawmakers have criticised the ruling. A court in Argentina dropped the criminal case against President Javier Milei…

It would also let issuers limit daily redemptions when a liquidity shortfall in reserve-asset markets prevents them from meeting all requests.Coverage would depend on Canadian purchaser-location criteria, the issuing entity and any applicable exclusions or exemptions. Circle’s treatment under the future framework remains a separate…
Staking protocol Lido activated a new permissionless Ethereum module on Oct. 23, allowing independent operators to run validators with effective balances of up to 2,048 ETH. The new route is live, with initial capacity intended for about 32 seed deposits and larger allocations dependent on activation and later funding.The 0x02 Community Staking Module, or CSM, requires an operator to bond 32 ETH for the first validator key and 30 ETH for each additional key. Lido supplies the validator’s stake separately, so the operator’s bond and the protocol’s initial deposit serve different purposes.Ethereum’s 0x02 compounding withdrawal credentials allow a validator’s effective…
Paolo Ardoino’s push to bring AI into Bitcoin mining has a human decision at its center: who may authorize a machine to change what it is doing?

A common interface can give software a consistent way to reach different systems. Permission to act still depends…
