Brian Armstrong, the CEO of Coinbase, has significant influence over the fate of this particular bill. As crypto.news reported, he previously withdrew Coinbase’s support just before a scheduled vote, which led to the vote being postponed indefinitely. This happened after Coinbase and Stripe rejected an earlier version of the bill, causing a 20% drop in Circle’s stock price. The current version, developed by Tillis and Alsobrooks after extensive negotiations, clearly defines what’s considered acceptable in terms of earning rewards – it allows rewards for active platform use but prohibits those earned passively.

The Open Network (TON), that elusive siren of the blockchain seas, has slashed its transaction fees by sixfold, to a mere $0.0005. A pittance, one might say, in the grand bazaar of digital commerce. Durov, with his characteristic flair for the dramatic, proclaimed on X (formerly Twitter, but who’s keeping track?):

The gentleman in question, one Stellar Rippler, a commentator of some repute in the crypto sphere, has posited a theory as bold as it is speculative.

And they’re using Succinct Labs’ SP1 virtual machine. SP1? Sounds like a robot from a bad sci-fi movie. But hey, it’s open-source, so at least someone’s not trying to charge you for the privilege of being confused.

The Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (DTCC), a behemoth of the financial underworld, has announced its latest spectacle: a grand alliance of over 50 financial titans to tokenize assets worth more than $114 trillion. Ah, the sweet scent of digital greed wafting through the air!

Bitcoin’s price chart is currently signaling a clear opportunity. Traders will either capitalize on it quickly, or later explain why they didn’t.

DTCC, the big cheese of clearing, announced-on Monday, no less-that it’ll start a limited run of tokenized securities in July, with a full blast in October. It’s not a drill, folks, it’s a grand production number.
