Coinbase leadership and Marc Andreessen were sued over an alleged years-long insider-trading scheme. Ripple secured a payments license in Singapore and expanded XRP and RLUSD payment services there. Vitalik Buterin warned that shifting Zcash governance toward token-based voting could erode privacy protections. Federal Reserve Vice Chair Michelle Bowman stated that bank regulators are working on stablecoin rules. Anthropic released a report showing that AI agents discovered zero-day exploits in crypto protocols during testing and pose a threat to vulnerable smart contracts. Meanwhile, House Republicans issued a 50-page report on “Operation Chokepoint 2.0,” alleging that the Fed, FDIC, OCC, and SEC covertly pressured banks to avoid crypto through pause letters, informal guidance, and SAB 121, ultimately debanking more than 30 firms.
