🇪🇺 ECB Executive Board member Isabel Schnabel believes that it's time to move bank reserves directly onto the blockchain — so that interbank settlements, collateral, and liquidity can be automated with smart contracts.
This is NOT about a digital euro for ordinary people, but about money that banks use to settle with each other — and the Eurosystem is already launching part of such an infrastructure.

🪒 The TRUMP shitcoin team has transferred 82 million tokens worth $249,000,000 to CEX exchanges over the last 8 months.

🗽 In the US, the first triple-leveraged Bitcoin and Ethereum funds have been approved — their price will move approximately three times more dramatically than BTC and ETH in a day.
Such instruments are especially risky, but the very fact of their SEC approval shows how far crypto has already entered the traditional market.

🫡 Today is Hester Peirce's last day at the SEC — the commissioner, who was dubbed "Crypto Mom" in the crypto industry, is leaving after 8 years at the regulator.
Peirce consistently opposed regulating crypto through enforcement actions, promoted the idea of a safe harbor for tokens, and later headed the Crypto Task Force, which took on the task of creating clearer rules for digital assets.

Judging by the reaction, she will definitely remember the moment.

⚪️ Coinbase wants to turn unpacking Pokémon cards into a digital gambling mechanic — packs are opened directly in the app, but behind each dropped card stands a real physical copy.
It can be left in storage and resold without ever touching it, or delivered home — Coinbase has not yet revealed prices and the exact launch date.
Earlier we wrote that Pokémon cards as of 2026 are still outperforming both Bitcoin and S&P 500.

❌ Blast is closing down — The once-hyped Ethereum L2, with $20M in investments and massive TVL, no longer covers its own infrastructure costs.
After the airdrop, interest in the network quickly faded, the token lost almost all its value, and now users are advised to withdraw funds back to Ethereum.
@DeCenterOrg
⚠️ Be careful, a scheme with fake exchangers is currently actively being used in Telegram — people are offered to undergo an «AML-check» and are given a link to a third-party website.
In reality, inside there might be a drainer, withdrawing all assets from your wallet after connecting.
For exchange, use only verified services and separately check the website address — scammers often copy the design of real exchangers almost exactly.

🪙 USDT on the Bitcoin blockchain will be launched already this month.

🇸🇻 El Salvador received IMF money again — although it has already breached a program condition to stop accumulating BTC.
The Fund gave the country another exception and again demanded not to buy BTC anymore, except for documented donations — but the story of "we're not buying, but the reserves are growing" continues.
@DeCenterOrg
🪙 Open Anonymity together with Ethereum Foundation launched zkAPI — a system for private payment of API and AI services via Ethereum.
The user can pay for access to the model, without disclosing unnecessary data and without linking their requests to a specific payment.

🇪🇺 European regulators are checking Binance for operating in the EU without a MiCA license.
The exchange refers to a rule that allows serving a client, if they themselves came for the service, but authorities want to make sure that this exception is not used to cover up regular operations in the European market.

🇧🇷 Blockchain is increasingly moving from the world of tokens to traditional industry.
Brazilian state oil giant Petrobras together with Cardano launched a system where the characteristics of "green" aviation fuel are tokenized and recorded on the blockchain so that they cannot be double-counted or backdated.
Thus, airlines and auditors can verify the origin and environmental parameters of the fuel directly from the chain of records.
@DeCenterOrg
☠️ Hackers were inside the infrastructure of Bitget for at least 25 days before stealing $388,000,000 — according to SlowMist, the first trace of the hack appeared back on August 31st through a vulnerability in a third-party security service.
Private keys were not stolen — attackers obtained internal credentials and forced the system to approve fake withdrawals itself.
Part of the stolen funds were then moved through CoW Protocol, Chainflip, and other cross-chain services.
