Sun Yuchen filed a lawsuit against World Liberty Financial in the California Federal Court to protect the rights of WLFI token holders, accusing the other party of freezing tokens without reasonable explanation, depriving voting rights, threatening permanent destruction, and refusing non-litigation resolution options. He also opposed the governance proposal on April 15, claiming that holders who did not accept the terms would be locked indefinitely, early buyers would need to lock for two years and then vest for another two years, and he was unable to vote because his tokens were frozen.

Deep Tide Guide: Back then, only 12 projects had revenue over $50 million. When DeFi was attacked by AI and turned into a burning pit, and the on-chain gold miners were still trapped on a battlefield that had already ended—every crypto professional should ask themselves the same question: What else can I do here?
A lot of my friends have already left or are considering leaving the crypto industry, so I’d like to share some broader thoughts about the market and talk about what’s still left to do for cryptocurrencies?
The core of the problem is that cryptocurrencies are in a bind in three key areas: (i) lack of innovation—nothing new has emerged in the past 2-3 years; (ii) advances in quantum technology threaten Bitcoin’s survival by 2029; (iii) large language models like Claude Mythos increase attack 次

Within Tokyo’s tightly-knit financial circles, few can provoke as much controversy as Michael Lerch.
To some, he is a white knight — this mysterious American investor has pulled Japanese companies teetering on the brink of disaster back from the edge of bankruptcy. But to others, he is a greedy hyena: a profit-seeking hedge fund manager who specifically targets vulnerable companies caught in crisis, waiting to profit.
Across Japan’s capital markets, Lerch has become synonymous with “death spiral” financing. This is a financing model that is highly profitable yet deeply controversial. His boutique investment fund, Evo, is the largest buyer in Japan of equity warrant options with floating strike prices. These niche financing instruments are mainly for small listed companies whose capital chains are under strain.

New York State Democratic Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said she would rather have Trump on the golf course than making decisions in the White House. Previously, Trump issued tough threats against Iran. She also stated that some key military decision-makers are trying to keep him away from major affairs, which has also sparked discussions about the 25th Amendment if he is deemed untrustworthy in handling emergencies.

Uzbekistan has established the Besqala Mining Valley Special Economic Zone in Karakalpakstan, where miners will enjoy tax exemptions until 2035 and access to renewable energy and hydrogen power generation systems. Cryptographic assets mined within the zone can be traded locally or abroad, with mining licenses issued by the National Frontier Projects Agency. Current regulations permit trading through licensed service providers, prohibit P2P, and restrict digital assets from being used for payments; mining is limited to legal entities only. The first license was officially issued in late February 2026.

Russia's State Duma passed the "Digital Currency and Digital Rights" bill in the first reading, stipulating that crypto transactions must be conducted through licensed intermediaries or exchanges. Ordinary investors can purchase central bank-listed digital currencies only after passing a test, with an annual purchase limit of 300k rubles; professional investors can buy without restrictions after testing. Banks are prohibited from transferring funds to platforms without approval from the central bank. Residents must declare offshore crypto assets and wallet information. Payments with cryptocurrencies within the country will be subject to administrative fines, and illegal digital currency circulation can result in up to 7 years of imprisonment. The bill has been criticized by the banking sector and bicameral committees, with regulatory disputes over non-custodial wallets.
