Malaysia’s central bank is set to launch three regulatory sandbox initiatives to explore the use of distributed ledger technology (DLT) in “real-world applications.” The Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) announced February 11 that its Digital Asset Innovation Hub (DAIH) will deliver the…
Representative Maxine Waters questioned the SEC’s decision to pause its fraud case against Justin Sun, suggesting a “pay-to-play” link to his US$75 million investment in Trump-affiliated crypto projects. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins refused to discuss the specific case but confirmed the agency is shifting away from “regulation-by-enforcement” to focus on “real fraud” involving securities. The probe involves allegations that Sun used 600,000 wash trades to manipulate token prices, a case that remains unresolved 11 months after the SEC first requested a stay. Democrats challenged SEC Chair Paul Atkins on Wednesday over why the agency’s case against Tron founder Justin Sun…
A 1% crypto allocation across Asia’s household wealth could channel nearly US$2 trillion (AU$2.82 trillion) into digital assets. BlackRock’s Nicholas Peach framed the calculation as evidence of substantial sidelined capital within traditional portfolios. Expanding ETF adoption and regulatory progress in Asian markets may amplify the impact of even modest allocation changes. A shift of as little as 1% towards crypto within Asian investment portfolios could translate into enormous capital inflows, according to BlackRock’s Nicholas Peach. Speaking at Consensus Hong Kong, Peach said that even conservative adjustments to standard model allocations have the potential to significantly alter the trajectory of digital…
The EU is finalising its 20th sanctions package, set for adoption on February 24, which proposes a blanket ban on all cryptocurrency transactions and platforms tied to Russia. The measures shift from targeting specific firms to blocking entire “crypto rails,” including the digital ruble and the fast-growing A7A5 stablecoin, to prevent evasion through successor platforms. The crackdown extends to third-country banks in Kyrgyzstan, Laos, and Tajikistan that facilitate Russian crypto services, barring them from transacting with EU entities. Russia moved this week to tighten domestic control over digital assets, passing legislation in a third reading that sets procedures for freezing…
The XRP Ledger (XRPL) has overtaken Solana on one closely watched metric over the past month, flipping it in real-world asset tokenization, excluding stablecoins.Data from RWA.xyz indicate that the Ledger has approximately $1.756 billion in total on-chain real-world asset value, excluding stablecoins, compared with approximately $1.682 billion for Solana.While this gap is not large, the shift is notable because it reflects a sudden burst of issuance-style activity on a network that has spent much of the last cycle in the shadow of faster, retail-heavy chains.The speed of the move is the bigger surprise.

Prediction markets entered the mainstream in 2025, with a fourfold surge in annual trading volume as a handful of venues consolidated control over what is rapidly becoming an institutional-scale product, according to a new report from blockchain security firm CertiK.The sector’s total volume rose from $15.8 billion in 2024 to $63.5 billion in 2025, the report said, with activity remaining elevated after the US election cycle and extending into January 2026.Prediction Market Monthly Volume in 2025 (Source: CertiK)That persistence matters because it suggests that election trading behaved less like a one-off spike and more like an acquisition event that drew…
Washington’s stablecoin stalemate is hardening into a fight that banks recognize immediately as a deposit issue.The dispute is no longer centered on whether dollar-linked tokens should exist. It centers on whether they should be treated as deposits, especially if consumers can earn interest-like rewards simply for holding them.A recent White House meeting aimed at breaking a deadlock between banking and crypto trade groups ended without agreement, with stablecoin interest and rewards still the central fault line.The timing is not incidental. Stablecoins have grown beyond a niche plumbing layer for crypto trading and cross-venue settlement.Total stablecoin supply hit a fresh high…
