SEC Chair Paul Atkins said he anticipates the entire U.S. financial system will transition to blockchain-based infrastructure within the next two years. He added that the shift toward digital assets, tokenization, and broader market digitalization will be the next major phase — one that promises “significant benefits” in terms of transparency and risk management.
Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) emphasized that the core requirement for hardware wallets is that the private key must remain on the device at all times and never be exposed. Earlier, YZi Labs (formerly Binance Labs) announced that it had invested in OneKey, an open-source hardware wallet provider.
Spoluzakladatel Etherea Vitalik Buterin uvedl, že ekosystém potřebuje bezdůvěrový trh s futures na plyn na řetězci. Upozornil, že ačkoli jsou poplatky nyní nízké, uživatelé mají malou jasnost ohledně toho, jak by se ceny plynu mohly měnit v průběhu příštích několika let. Takový trh, vysvětlil, by jak signalizoval očekávání budoucích poplatků, tak by uživatelům umožnil zajistit se proti rostoucím nákladům — dokonce by jim umožnil předplatit plyn v rámci zvoleného časového okna.
CoinShares Head of Research James Butterfill countered recent criticisms from Arthur Hayes and S&P Global, saying concerns about Tether’s solvency are overstated. Pointing to Tether’s latest attestation, he noted the company holds about $181 billion in reserves versus roughly $174.45 billion in liabilities, leaving an estimated surplus of around $6.8 billion. He also highlighted that Tether remains among the most profitable firms in the sector, earning roughly $10 billion in profit during the first three quarters of 2025.
U.S. prosecutors have urged a federal judge in New York to impose a 12-year prison sentence on Terraform Labs co-founder Do Kwon, describing his involvement in the 2022 TerraUSD collapse as a “massive” fraud that contributed to wider turmoil in the crypto market, including the eventual failure of FTX. His sentencing is set for December 11.
Polští zákonodárci nebyli schopni přehlasovat veto prezidenta Karola Nawrockého k zákonu o digitálních aktivech, čímž efektivně zastavili snahu premiéra Donalda Tuska o zavedení regulací kryptoměn v souladu se standardy EU. Dolní komora nedosáhla potřebné třípětinové většiny pro přehlasování, i když Tusk trval na tom, že toto opatření je klíčové pro národní bezpečnost.

Binance founder Changpeng Zhao said on December 4 that simply holding Bitcoin is one of the strongest investment strategies, outperforming 99% of startups. He also stressed that he has no ties or cooperation with the Trump family. CZ added that he sees no need to return to Binance’s daily management, noting that his absence continues to support the growth of the broader BNB blockchain ecosystem. #BTC $BTC
Two individuals have been detained in Vienna in connection with the robbery, killing, and car arson involving a 21-year-old Ukrainian heir who reportedly held significant cryptocurrency assets. According to police, the victim was lured into a hotel’s underground parking garage by people of the same nationality, where he was assaulted and coerced into giving up the passwords to two crypto wallets. The funds were then allegedly transferred out.
Ethereum’s mainnet has completed the “Fusaka” upgrade, marking an important milestone in its L1-plus-rollup strategy. The update boosts base-layer performance, increases blob capacity, reduces rollup operating costs, and improves overall user experience. It also introduces a Blob Parameter Only (BPO) fork mechanism, allowing blob capacity to be raised safely as demand from rollups scales. Consensys previously noted that Ethereum intends to move from yearly upgrades to twice-yearly hard forks going forward.
Binance has introduced Binance Junior, a parent-managed crypto sub-account app aimed at users aged 6 to 17. To set one up, parents must already have a Binance account, complete full KYC verification, and enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). #crypto #Binance
Ethereum developers are experimenting with a zero-knowledge (ZK) privacy protocol that enables anonymous on-chain “Secret Santa”–style matching. The system uses ZK proofs to confirm valid participation, relayers to obscure where transactions come from, and shared randomness to encrypt gift messages — ensuring that wallet addresses aren’t revealed and preventing duplicate sign-ups or being matched with oneself. The initiative is viewed as an important step toward Ethereum’s broader privacy infrastructure, with potential use cases including anonymous voting, DAO governance, whistleblower tools, and private airdrop distributions.
After the U.S. imposed sanctions, Huione Pay — regarded as the largest money-laundering network operating in Cambodia — faced a severe bank run. On December 1, the company suddenly announced it would shut down operations until January 5 and begin a delayed repayment process. Long lines of users have since gathered outside its headquarters in Phnom Penh. #crypto
Anthropic’s new research indicates that modern AI agents have developed notable abilities to replicate on-chain exploits. In tests simulating real smart-contract attacks from 2020–2025, Claude Opus 4.5, Sonnet 4.5, and GPT-5 reproduced roughly $4.6 million worth of historical exploit outcomes. When analyzing 2,849 newly deployed contracts with no previously reported issues, the models also identified two undisclosed vulnerabilities and generated profitable attack scenarios. The report concludes that AI-enabled exploit activity has been growing rapidly, with estimated revenues doubling about every 1.3 months — suggesting that autonomous, profit-motivated smart-contract exploitation is now within technical reach.
Strategy purchased 130 BTC for roughly $11.7 million at an average price of about $89,960 per coin. As of November 30, 2025, the company holds 650,000 BTC in total, acquired for approximately $48.38 billion at an average cost of $74,436 per bitcoin.
Yearn Finance’s yETH product suffered an exploit in which the attacker appears to have minted almost unlimited yETH, draining the pool in a single transaction and netting roughly 1,000 ETH (around $3 million). A portion of the stolen funds was later routed through Tornado Cash. On-chain data suggests the operation used several freshly created contracts that self-destructed after the attack, and the full extent of the losses is still uncertain. Yearn stated that it is investigating the incident and emphasized that its V2 and V3 Vaults were not impacted.
Arthur Hayes, the founder of BitMEX, said the newest audit indicates that Tether is essentially positioning itself for upcoming Federal Reserve rate cuts, which would reduce its interest earnings. To offset this, Tether has boosted its exposure to gold and Bitcoin as a hedge against “the declining value of money.” Hayes pointed out that if this gold–BTC portfolio were to fall by around 30%, it could eliminate Tether’s equity, theoretically putting USDT at risk of insolvency. He also suggested that large holders and exchanges will likely push for real-time insight into Tether’s financials.
BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes reiterated his $250,000 year-end price target for Bitcoin, saying on this week’s “Milk Road Show” that last week’s drop to $80,600 was the cycle low and that the subsequent bounce reinforces his view. He noted that a large share of the inflows into BlackRock’s IBIT came from “basis trade” strategies and believes most institutional deleveraging has already played out. With USD liquidity scraping the bottom, quantitative tightening wrapping up, and expectations for rate cuts increasing, he anticipates the next major move upward is coming.
HMRC Spojeného království zavedl nová pravidla, která vyžadují, aby kryptoburzy působící v zemi shromažďovaly úplné záznamy o transakcích od všech uživatelů v Spojeném království počínaje 1. lednem 2026. Tato data musí být poté předložena HMRC v roce 2027, což umožní daňovému úřadu ověřit podání a bojovat proti daňovým únikům souvisejícím s kryptoměnami. Tento přístup je v souladu s Rámcem pro vykazování kryptoměnových aktiv (CARF) OECD, který již byl implementován v EU, Kanadě, Austrálii, Japonsku a Jižní Koreji.
