Ledger’s new multisig app earns praise for tech upgrades but sparks backlash over added transaction fees. Crypto hardware wallet provider Ledger recently announced a new multisig interface that has been broadly welcomed as a technical improvement but criticized for introducing a new fee structure that some users have called a cash grab. The Ledger Multisig application will charge users a flat $10 fee for all transactions except token transfers, which incur a 0.05% variable fee. These charges come in addition to standard blockchain network gas fees, which are independent of Ledger. Ethereum developer and X user pcaversaccio criticized the move, writing: “You parade as Cypherpunk while trying to make Ledger Wallet (rebranded from Ledger Live) the single choke point for all crypto so you can squeeze everyone through it (guys, this won’t happen).” Read more -

RWA tokenization faces criticism, but regulatory clarity and institutional adoption prove it’s building the foundation for finance’s future. Opinion by: Alex Zhang, co-founder at Pharos Tokenizing real-world assets (RWAs) is not a self-contained solution to traditional finance problems. To claim such a thing would be one-dimensional. As it stands, RWA tokenization is under immense pressure to perform despite showing clear value and signs of progress. Despite its progressive trajectory, the criticism leveled at RWA tokenization is immense. Critics say that decentralization alone is enough. Read more -

HMRC has issued 65,000 crypto tax warning letters, but experts say UK investors who haven’t been contacted could still owe taxes. UK crypto investors could face tax bills even if they haven’t received warning letters from HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC), as the agency steps up efforts to track undeclared digital asset income. Last week, the Financial Times revealed that HMRC issued nearly 65,000 “nudge letters” in the 2024–25 tax year, more than double the number sent the year before. The letters urge investors to review their filings and voluntarily declare crypto-related gains before potential audits begin. However, tax experts warn that the agency’s growing use of exchange data and international reporting agreements means that investors who haven’t received a letter shouldn’t assume they’re in the clear.
