🪙 The owner of a rare physical Casascius coin with a denomination of 25 BTC uncovered the protective hologram and for the first time in 12 years transferred the bitcoins to a new wallet. When the coin was released in the early 2010s, the 25 BTC stored on it were worth less than $100, and today — around $1,800,000.
The most interesting thing is that along with gaining access to the bitcoins, the coin lost its collector's value — after the hologram was removed, it is no longer considered an "untouched" artifact, for which collectors are willing to pay tens of thousands of dollars over and above the BTC value.

🇪🇺 From July 1, the MiCA transitional period actually ends in the EU — crypto companies must now operate under a single CASP license, which can be "passported" across the entire European Union.
This is market maturation, but not a gift for startups — capital, compliance, IT security, and DORA requirements make entry expensive and complex.
In essence, Europe is closing the era of crypto-anarchy — it will become increasingly difficult for small players to survive, and the main beneficiaries will be banks, large exchanges, and companies with strong infrastructure.
The license does not guarantee earnings — it rather becomes an expensive pass into a market where margins are already low.

🪙 In the USA, for the first time, a mortgage was arranged where Bitcoin was used as collateral for a home purchase — the borrower did not have to sell BTC for the down payment.
The transaction was carried out according to Fannie Mae standards, meaning crypto was tested for the first time not in a private crypto loan, but within the classical US mortgage system.

The guy himself stated that his work "hit a nerve" with the Russian government, and called on Western countries to increase pressure on exchanges that allow converting A7A5 into cash.
According to CertiK, the stablecoin processed over $110 billion in transactions, despite sanctions from the US, EU, and UK.
