Kenyan regulators say no crypto firms are licensed under the new VASP Act and warn that providers claiming approval are doing so illegally. Bitcoin ATMs were spotted across major shopping malls in Nairobi days after Kenya implemented its first comprehensive cryptocurrency law, creating an immediate stress test for regulators who claim that no crypto provider is yet authorized to operate.  Local media outlet Capital News reported that several major malls across Nairobi had new machines branded “Bankless Bitcoin” installed beside traditional banking kiosks, offering cash-to-crypto services to the locals.  This isn’t the first time Kenya has seen Bitcoin ATMs. In 2018, The East African reported that ATM provider BitClub installed Bitcoin ATMs in Nairobi, although adoption remained minimal and the devices did not reach mainstream retail spaces.

Strategy remains poised for an S&P 500 inclusion in 2025, as the world’s largest Bitcoin holder is unlikely to have to liquidate its holdings to service its debt. The recent crypto market correction has reignited questions about the durability of corporate Bitcoin treasury plays, but Matrixport researchers say the largest of them, Strategy, still appears on track for possible S&P 500 inclusion. Despite recurring doubts about whether Strategy’s business model can withstand deep drawdowns, analysts argue that a forced, large-scale liquidation by the world’s largest corporate Bitcoin (BTC) holder is not a “near-term risk,” according to a Wednesday research report by Matrixport. Instead, the real pressure from the recent correction is on the stockholders who bought the stock at an inflated net asset value (NAV), who are currently suffering the impact of the company’s NAV compression.

Basel’s toughest crypto rules are under review as the US, UK, and the EU diverge, with booming stablecoin adoption forcing a rethink of 1,250% capital charges, the group’s chair told the FT. Global bank regulators are preparing to revisit their most stringent crypto rules after the United States and the United Kingdom refused to implement them, a move that threatens to unravel the long-standing consensus of the Basel Committee.  In an interview with the Financial Times, Erik Thedéen, the governor of the Swedish central bank and chair of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS), said they may need a “different approach” to the current 1,250% risk weighting for crypto exposures.  According to global law firm White & Case, the application of the 1,250% risk weight means that credit institutions must hold their own funds of at least equal value to the amount of the respective crypto-asset exposure.  Read more
