Elon Musk has chosen public confrontation with the French justice system. Targeted by an investigation over X and its artificial intelligence Grok, the American billionaire published insults in French directly aimed at the magistrates in charge of the case.

BlackRock pushes further its offensive in tokenization. The American giant is preparing a reserve fund for stablecoins and an onchain share class linked to a 6.9 billion dollar money market fund.

This dynamic raises a central question on the market: Is Ethereum definitively losing its status as the leader of altcoins?

The crypto market finds a foothold after a more active week on dollar-indexed assets. According to Defillama data, stablecoins attracted well over 2 billion dollars in seven days.

An old Bitcoin whale has just moved 500 BTC that had been immobile since 2013. At the time, this jackpot was worth about 457,000 dollars. Today, it weighs nearly 40.6 million dollars.
