    Gotbit? Never Heard of It! Meme Coins Try to Distance Themselves

    Days after the U.S. government announced unprecedented criminal and civil charges against four crypto companies for alleged market manipulation and “wash trading,” meme coin projects dependent on those same firms have begun attempting to distance themselves from the fallout.  In particular, token teams that partnered with one of the implicated companies, the market maker Gotbit, have started issuing statements vigorously disavowing the firm they depended on for liquidity. “We have halted our rel...

    Prediction Markets Invite Insider Trading—And That’s a Good Thing, Experts Say

    Think of the term “insider trading,” and what comes to mind? Maybe someone in a suit, whispering about a secret new product or a quarterly earnings report that’s yet to drop. Perhaps there’s a park bench involved, or an envelope, or a lot of whiskey.  That image is now outdated. The explosion in popularity of prediction betting markets like Polymarket this year has not just changed how people make money online—it’s also revolutionized the pool of who, exactly, has access to information with pote...

    Justin Sun Is Now Prime Minister of Liberland—What Does That Even Mean?

    Tron founder Justin Sun is many things. You can now count prime minister among them. This week, the micronation of Liberland—a largely theoretical European state cooked up by right-wing libertarians in 2015—announced that it elected Sun to serve as its head of state.  So what exactly does that mean in practical terms? It depends on who you ask. The average person might say “nothing at all,” given the fact that Liberland lays claim to 2.7 miles of disputed, uninhabited floodplain currently being...

    Supreme Court Won't Hear Case Over $4.4 Billion in Seized Silk Road Bitcoin

    The United States Supreme Court declined on Monday to hear a case concerning the ownership of 69,370 Bitcoin seized from the dark web marketplace Silk Road, apparently paving the way for the American government to sell the $4.38 billion stash of BTC in question. In 2022, a federal court in California ruled against Battle Born Investments, a company that claimed it had purchased rights to the seized Bitcoin via a bankruptcy estate. Battle Born argued that the debtor from the bankruptcy action, Ra...

    Pro-Crypto Robinhood Exec in Running to Lead SEC If Trump Wins Election: Politico

    For months, Donald Trump has promised that if re-elected, he would fire U.S. Securities and Exchange Commision (SEC’s) current chair, Gary Gensler, and end the agency’s crypto-hostile approach. Now, a clearer picture is emerging of who the former president might tap to run America’s top Wall Street watchdog.  Robinhood Chief Legal Officer Dan Gallagher has emerged as a top choice to run the SEC should Trump win in November, Politico reported on Monday, citing conversations with a dozen unnamed l...

    Mark Cuban has long been a vocal critic of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chair Gary Gensler, over the regulator's hostile approach to regulating the crypto industry. But only last week did the two men actually meet face to face in a CNBC green room—an experience that Cuban says was illuminating.  “I told [Gary] this: You’re screwing the whole thing up, you’re pushing industries overseas,” Cuban said in an interview with Farokh Sarmad of Rug Radio, a sister company of Decrypt. “An...

    Republican Senate Candidate Blasts Crypto PAC Fairshake Over Snub: ‘They Needed a Democrat’

    Michigan’s Republican nominee for Senate, Mike Rogers, says he’s supported crypto for years, stretching back to the heyday of Silk Road. He’s eagerly engaged with industry watchdogs like Stand With Crypto, and even attended blockchain conferences in person.  And yet, when Fairshake, the colossal pro-crypto super PAC, weighed in on Michigan’s senate race weeks ago, it opted not to support Rogers, but rather his opponent: a Democrat, Elissa Slotkin, who as recently as April held an “F” rating on S...

Earlier this year, Riot attempted to buy Bitfarms for $950 million. The Bitfarms board balked at the offer, though, claiming it was a lowball. Since then, Riot has steadily vacuumed up Bitfarms shares in an attempt at a h...
