Privacy experts warn EU’s Chat Control law could break encryption, erode trust in digital platforms and push users toward decentralized Web3 solutions. As EU lawmakers near a decision on the “Chat Control” law, privacy experts warn it could break public trust in digital communication and push users toward Web3 platforms. As European lawmakers near a decision on the controversial “Chat Control” legislation, privacy experts warn it could break public trust in digital communication and push users toward Web3 platforms.

Critics say this effectively creates a backdoor into encrypted systems, contradicting the EU’s own commitments to privacy. Read more
Arthur Hayes predicts liquidity will flow into markets once the US Treasury hits its goal, Vitalik Buterin news and more: Hodler’s Digest Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has finally addressed some concerns over the lengthening Ethereum staking exit queue, which has now grown to 45 days. His response came after Galaxy Digitals head of DeFi, Michael Marcantonio, called the exit queue length troubling in X posts and compared it to Solana, which only requires two days to unstake. He has since deleted the posts. Unclear how a network that takes 45 days to return assets can serve as a suitable candidate to power the next era of global capital markets, he added. Read more

Nasdaq-listed Flora Growth will rebrand to ZeroStack after raising $401 million to support 0G, a decentralized AI blockchain training 107B-parameter models. Nasdaq-listed cannabis firm Flora Growth has launched a $401 million treasury initiative to back Zero Gravity (0G), a blockchain project focused on powering decentralized AI infrastructure.

Vitalik Buterin said low-risk DeFi protocols can bring in stable revenue for the network, like how Google Search does for Google, but while also ensuring Ethereum’s core values remain intact. Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said revenue from low-risk decentralized finance protocols could give the network economic stability — much like Google Search supports Google — while letting nonfinancial apps uphold Ethereum’s cultural values. Low-risk DeFi could address “important tensions” in the Ethereum community over whether apps that bring in enough revenue to economically sustain the ecosystem align with the cultural and ethical values that brought people to Ethereum in the first place, Buterin said in a blog post on Saturday. The former has been a combination of nonfungible tokens, memecoins, and speculative trading, while the nonfinancial and semifinancial apps that reflect Ethereum’s cultural values have either struggled to gain widespread adoption or haven’t generated enough fees, he said.
