Yet, let us not hold our breath; SBI isn’t exactly rushing to the altar of officialdom until the legal clouds part and the bureaucratic gods smile upon them. Still, this firm is no stranger to XRP; if anyone’s poised to sprint ahead in Japan’s ETF marathon, they are the dark horses with a history as tangled and fascinating as a intricately woven kimono. 🥷

Will GPT-5 Live Up to the Hype? 🤔💥

The AI press, yours truly included, gets high on version numbers. But step back: gpt-oss-120B is arguably the bigger disruptor. An Apache-licensed, 117 B-parameter model that runs on a single 80 GB GPU guts the moat OpenAI spent five years digging. If GPT-5 is merely “GPT-4-plus-epsilon,” the open-weight release could prove the real story by commoditizing good-enough reasoning for the masses. 🤯🌍

Fan Art Imagines The Legend of Zelda’s Link in Deltarune’s Art Style

The Legend of Zelda series, dating back to 1986 on the NES, is nearly as ancient as the video game industry itself. It introduced Link, a brave but silent protagonist, to the world who not only captured players’ hearts but also left an indelible mark on the industry. Although the initial game may not have been its finest hour, it set the stage for a string of titles that significantly influenced the medium, including A Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time, and Breath of the Wild.

Square Enix’s The Adventures of Elliot Isn’t the Studio’s Take on Zelda, It’s Something Else Entirely

Although Nihon Falcom’s Ys series has been around for as long or longer than some well-known and enduring RPG franchises, it has surprisingly remained quite obscure in the Western world. However, this has begun to shift in recent times as the 3D installments of the Ys series have garnered attention, setting the stage for the action RPG franchise to finally match the rising popularity of its turn-based counterparts, The Legend of Heroes/Trails games. With The Adventures of Elliot, Square Enix is entering a specific niche of action RPG genre that should delight longtime fans of the often-overlooked Ys series, and potentially attract new players as well.

When Crypto Meets the Law: A Tale of Tornado Cash 🌪️💰

The jury, after much deliberation and what one can only assume were several rounds of rock-paper-scissors, failed to agree on the more serious charges of money laundering and sanctions violations, as reported by the ever-reliable Inner City Press. The case, presided over by the formidable Judge Katherine Polk Failla, has become a hot potato in the ongoing tug-of-war between cryptocurrency innovation and the regulatory watchdogs who seem to think they’re at a dress rehearsal for The Great Gatsby.

Mark Twain’s Take on Dogecoin’s Wild Ride 🚀🐶

On the hallowed grounds of X, a market guru known as ‘CryptoELITES’ (a name that sounds like it was conjured up in a brainstorming session for superhero team names) has laid out a roadmap that would make Christopher Columbus envious. This visionary sees Dogecoin not just surviving its current dip but soaring to new heights, breaking free from the chains of its recent 10% nosedive. It’s enough to make one believe in fairy tales-or at least in the power of a good meme.
