Institutions are exploring blockchain settlement, but they cannot move forward without system-level privacy, says ZKsync developer. Privacy tokens bucked the trend to surge in price and popularity during the recent market slump, but most of the discussion has centered on consumer-facing projects like Zcash. At the same time, banks and financial institutions have been exploring zero-knowledge (ZK) systems that enable private transaction flows on blockchains, a technology known for transparency and immutability. As Alex Gluchowski, CEO of Matter Labs, put it, “There is cypherpunk privacy, which is account-level privacy, and then there is institutional privacy, which is system-level privacy. Institutions need full visibility over their own flows while keeping that data private from everyone else.” Read more -

Gianluca Di Bella claimed quantum computing already makes encryption and ZK-proofs vulnerable due to “harvest now, decrypt later” risks. Gianluca Di Bella, a smart-contract researcher specializing in zero-knowledge proofs, said the danger posed by quantum computing isn’t a distant concern; it’s a current one. Speaking to Cointelegraph at the UN City offices in Copenhagen, Denmark, Di Bella said he believes “we should migrate now” to post-quantum encryption standards. The reason, he explained, lies in so-called “harvest now, decrypt later” attacks, where data is collected and stored until future technology makes decryption possible. For instance, if the identity of a dissident in a totalitarian country is protected solely by encryption, they want to ensure that the data will remain safe for 10, 15, 20 or more years into the future. Di Bella said that practical commercial quantum computing might be 10 or 15 years away, but cautioned that “big institutions like Microsoft or Google might have a solution in a few ... -

Leading financial institutions are continuing to explore blockchain technology to facilitate cheaper and faster institutional payments, signaling a growing interest in tokenization solutions. US investment bank JPMorgan and Singapore multinational banking group DBS announced Tuesday that they are developing a blockchain-based tokenization framework to enable onchain transfers between their deposit token ecosystems.

Argentina’s order against Hayden Davis marks the latest move in the $250 million Libra fraud probe now spanning courts in Buenos Aires and New York. Argentina’s federal judiciary ordered a freeze of assets belonging to US promoter Hayden Davis and two alleged intermediaries tied to the collapsed Libra token, deepening an investigation into one of Latin America’s biggest crypto scandals. The order, issued by Judge Marcelo Martínez de Giorgi, reportedly covers digital wallets, bank accounts and real-estate assets of Davis, Argentine operator Orlando Rodolfo Mellino and Colombian trader Favio Camilo Rodríguez Blanco. Prosecutors said the asset freeze was necessary to prevent any transfer of assets that could represent the proceeds of fraud, as investigators work to trace a money trail estimated to be $100 million to $120 million.

Guidance from the Internal Revenue Service appeared to offer additional regulatory clarity for crypto staking through exchange-traded products. The US Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the country’s tax-collection bureau under the Department of the Treasury, has updated its guidance for cryptocurrency exchange-traded products (ETPs) to include a safe harbor for trusts to stake digital assets. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent wrote in a Monday X post that the agencies released guidance offering crypto ETPs "a clear path to stake digital assets and share staking rewards with their retail investors.” According to the guidance available on the IRS website, government agencies would allow crypto trusts to participate in staking, provided they are traded on a national securities exchange, hold only cash and “units of a single type of digital asset,” held by a custodian, and mitigate specific risks to investors.
