  • Bitcoin is finding grassroots strongholds across the US
    Cointelegraph.com - 14:48 Nov 06, 2025
    Across the United States, Bitcoin is gaining traction far from coastal tech hubs, driven by cultural alignment, local educators and emerging state-level legislation. One of the unsung realities of Bitcoin (BTC) adoption in the United States is that the most meaningful momentum isn’t always happening in major financial centers. While regulatory battles unfold in Washington and institutions accumulate on Wall Street, everyday Bitcoin use is quietly taking root in places few would expect, including the heart of Oklahoma. The latest episode of The Clear Crypto Podcast explores how Bitcoin has become part of daily life in middle America, while speaking with Matthew Moore, a broadcaster and educator who has emerged as one of Oklahoma’s most influential grassroots Bitcoin advocates. Moore explains that Bitcoin adoption in Oklahoma looks different from the stereotype of crypto as a coastal or tech-centric phenomenon. Small businesses in towns across the state accept Bitcoin for goods, and Bitcoin meetups are flourish...

  • Why AI sucks at freelance work and real-life tasks: AI Eye
    Cointelegraph.com - 14:13 Nov 06, 2025
    Researchers found AI is hopeless at most Upwork task, it gets the news wrong half the time — and humans crush AI on world model tests. AI Eye. AI agents cant complete 97% of tasks on Upwork to even a basic standard. Researchers at Scale AI and the Center for AI Safety got six different AI models to attempt 240 Upwork projects across categories, including writing, design and data analysis and then compared the results to the real freelancer. The overwhelming majority of the time, the AI models were unable to complete the tasks successfully, with the best AI model, Manus, completing just 2.5% of tasks and earning $1,810 out of $143,991 on offer. Claude Sonnet and Grok 4 managed to finish 2.1% of the tasks. While AI agents are good at simple and defined tasks like “generate a logo,” the research found they are bad at multi-step workflows, taking any initiative or using judgment. So they wont be causing mass unemployment for a while yet. This backs up research from August at MIT, which found that 95% of organizat...

  • Crypto’s growth engine stalls as Wintermute warns of ‘recycled liquidity’
    Cointelegraph.com - 12:43 Nov 06, 2025
    Wintermute said inflows across stablecoins, ETFs and digital asset treasuries have plateaued, leaving crypto liquidity recycling internally. Crypto market-maker Wintermute said the digital asset market’s current cycle is being driven by “recycled liquidity,” as inflows from its three primary funding sources have slowed. In a Wednesday blog post, Wintermute argued that liquidity remains the defining force behind every crypto cycle. The market maker said that while blockchain continues to be adopted, the flow of fresh capital has decelerated in recent months.  The company pointed to stablecoins, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and digital asset treasuries (DATs) as the three major conduits for crypto liquidity, warning that liquidity inflow in all three has reached a plateau.  Read more
  • Regulators must protect the architecture of freedom
    Cointelegraph.com - 12:30 Nov 06, 2025
    The EU’s near-approval of Chat Control reveals regulatory threats to encryption. Web3 risks centralizing surveillance unless privacy becomes foundational. Opinion by: Agata Ferreira, assistant professor at the Warsaw University of Technology Recently, Europe came alarmingly close to approving mass surveillance of private communication through the proposed Chat Control regulation. The proposal faced intense backlash from the community, as it would have obliged providers to scan all private messages. It was rejected only after Germany refused to support it. Just nine EU member states opposed the proposal, while 12 backed it and six remained undecided. Read more
  • Someone drained your exchange account? Here’s your emergency playbook
    Cointelegraph.com - 12:30 Nov 06, 2025
    When your crypto is stolen, a rapid and organized response is crucial to trace the funds and rebuild your digital security. Hackers can drain your crypto exchange account by gaining unauthorized access to your password or login credentials. This often happens through phishing links or malware that secretly steals your login credentials. Attackers may also exploit weak passwords, reused credentials from data breaches or SIM swaps to bypass two-factor authentication (2FA). Once they gain access, they transfer funds to anonymous wallets, often routing them through mixers or decentralized exchanges to hide their tracks. Read more
  • Coinbase settles $24.7M fine in Ireland over transaction monitoring failures
    Cointelegraph.com - 12:28 Nov 06, 2025
    Coinbase said it had enhanced oversight and compliance testing after coding errors led to gaps in transaction monitoring between 2021 and 2022. Coinbase Europe Limited, the European affiliate of US crypto exchange Coinbase, has reached a 21.5 million euro ($24.7 million) settlement with the Central Bank of Ireland following technical failures in its transaction monitoring system between 2021 and 2022. In a Thursday blog post, Coinbase said the coding errors caused the exchange’s internal compliance software to only partially screen some transactions for suspicious activity. The company said it detected the issue through internal testing, fixed it within weeks, and later reviewed all affected transactions. Coinbase Europe ultimately filed around 2,700 suspicious transaction reports on transactions totaling about $15 million, out of the 185,000 transactions flagged during the review period. The company said that these filings did not confirm illicit activity, but were made as required under Irish Anti-Money Lau...
  • Banks lobby US Treasury for blanket stablecoin yield ban, Coinbase pushes back
    Cointelegraph.com - 11:33 Nov 06, 2025
    Coinbase insists that the US Treasury cannot override Congress’s intent on the GENIUS Act, but banks continue to press for a blanket ban on stablecoin interest. The US Department of the Treasury is facing conflicting feedback from crypto companies and traditional banking groups over how to implement the GENIUS Act, the law that regulates stablecoin payments in the US. In a letter on Tuesday, Coinbase urged the Treasury to limit a ban on stablecoin interest payments exclusively to stablecoin issuers, while allowing it for non-issuers, such as crypto exchanges. Coinbase said its proposal aligns with Congress’s intent when passing the legislation. At the same time, several banking groups, led by the Bank Policy Institute (BPI), have pressed the Treasury to extend the prohibition to non-issuers, advocating for a blanket ban on stablecoin interest payments.
