Blockchain stakeholders may still negotiate with policymakers on the EU AML framework’s upcoming ban on privacy-preserving tokens, set to go into effect in 2027.

A dormant Bitcoin whale moved $116 million of the cryptocurrency ahead of the Fed’s key interest rate decision as crypto traders braced for volatility in global markets. A long-dormant Bitcoin whale moved about $116 million worth of the cryptocurrency after 12 years, just before the US Federal Reserve’s closely watched interest rate decision.

The BTC was worth around $847,000 at the time, which the whale hodled for over a decade before transferring it to new wallets on Wednesday, according to blockchain data platform Lookonchain.

Bitwise’s Stablecoin & Tokenization ETF would track companies tied to stablecoins and tokenization sectors, as demand for onchain assets accelerates under new US rules.

The dual focus targets product development and preparing Ethereum to onboard traditional AI developers. Read more -

The House Rules Committee could add the CBDC bill to the final version of the market structure bill, but may not impact the Senate's own version of the legislation.

The engrossment method would add the CBDC bill to the final version of the existing market structure bill sent to the Senate for consideration. Read more -
