When the crypto world dreams of physical anchoring, it sometimes gives birth to projects that are as bold as they are vague. The latest? An initiative from the TON Foundation aimed at offering a 10-year Golden Visa to Toncoin investors. The idea, appealing on paper, was quickly dampened by a blunt denial: the authorities of the United Arab Emirates never approved the program. Behind the announcement effect lies the ongoing tension between decentralized innovation and state sovereignty.

As the world of cryptocurrencies becomes increasingly closed and competitive, Vitalik Buterin is sounding the alarm.

Since the beginning of July, investors have been lending to Italy at a lower rate than that demanded for France. Indeed, the curve has inverted for the first time since 2005, weakening Paris's position in the hierarchy of sovereign risk in the euro area. Yet, France maintains a better rating.

2025 marks a turning point in the quantum race. Japan has unveiled a superconducting computer with 256 qubits, the most powerful ever designed in this format. A few days later, China made a strong move by activating a system surpassing 1,000 qubits. Even better, Beijing announces concrete industrial goals in the coming 18 months. But one event shakes global cybersecurity: a Chinese team has reportedly managed to break RSA encryption using a quantum machine. These advancements render classical cryptographic systems obsolete, including those currently used by blockchains.

Bitcoin may be trading near all-time highs, but on-chain activity shows very different things. Despite BTC hovering around $109,000, the network’s mempool, the queue of unconfirmed transactions waiting to be included in a block, is almost empty.
