🤖 By 2033, AI freelancers and micro-companies can process through stablecoins up to $262 billion per year — banks are too slow and expensive for such a market, and AI agents cannot even open an account — therefore cryptodollars can become the main payment system for the new digital economy.

💤 A Bitcoin wallet, which had been inactive for 7 years, unexpectedly transferred 2,931 BTC (about $188 million) to a new address — the coins were bought, when Bitcoin was worth only $6,500, and remained untouched all this time.

🇹🇷 In Turkey, charges were filed against 504 participants of a $850,000,000 money laundering scheme, where, according to the investigation, shell companies, POS terminals, exchange offices, and cryptocurrency operations were used.

☘️ It is reported, that a small Bitaxe miner with a hashrate of about 1 TH/s alone found Bitcoin block #957382 and received the full reward — 3.1382 BTC (about $200,000).

Such an event is almost unbelievable — instead of large mining farms, luck went to a home device the size of a small computer.

🇹🇭 Thailand tightens the screws around crypto — from Q4 2026, stablecoin operations, primarily USDT, will come under enhanced control, and for deposits from 5 million baht ($150,000), the source of funds will need to be confirmed.

After the introduction of similar rules for withdrawing large sums, the volume of such operations has already fallen by 35%.

🪙 Ripple could have disappeared after the SEC lawsuit in 2020 — CEO Brad Garlinghouse stated that the company seriously considered shutting down the business and distributing XRP reserves among shareholders.

Ultimately, Ripple decided to fight in court — the proceedings lasted more than four years and cost approximately $150 million, but the company preserved its business and hundreds of jobs.

@DeCenterOrg

😂 Musk and Altman once again had a public spat — Elon called the head of OpenAI "a new level fraudster," and in response, he reminded that it is Musk who sells investors the idea of rapid data centers in space.

Then Altman added that Elon's new obsession became an excellent benchmark for GPT-5.6 — a typical conversation between the world's richest man and the head of one of the main AI companies.

🤖 Anthropic tried to charge a free tier user $16,600,000 with zero API usage — only the card limit saved them, the bank declined the payment, and similar complaints have already appeared from other users.

@DeCenterOrg

☠️ Hedera blockchain suffered an exploit — assets worth $5 250 000 were transferred from the Hedera mainnet to Ethereum.

@DeCenterOrg

🤖 Vitalik Buterin believes that the AI debate boils down to two different scenarios — if superintelligence emerges in the coming decades, it is logical to slow down AI development; if it's just another technology, restrictions will only strengthen the power of large companies and states.

He himself does not venture to guess which path will prove real, so he suggests preparing for both — developing open source, cryptography, secure hardware, and other technologies that will be useful in any future.

@DeCenterOrg

🤡 In the US, prosecutors accused an already convicted money launderer of stealing $290,000 in cryptocurrency from a Kraken account, which had been seized by the court.

The irony is that, according to the investigation, he committed the new theft while already behind bars.
