The cryptocurrency sector keeps surprising. Tether, already known for its USDT stablecoin, has just announced the launch of a new player: USAT. This dollar-backed stablecoin stands out with a clear ambition: to comply with new American legislation while consolidating the greenback's influence in the digital age. But the real surprise comes from its leadership: Bo Hines, former White House crypto advisor, now leads this strategic project.

Nearly two years after his conviction, the former CEO of FTX sees his crypto future replayed in a judicial appeal. The Second Circuit Court of Appeals has set the hearing for November 4, a key step in the crypto trial.

The prospect of elections organized directly on the blockchain may no longer belong to the realm of science fiction. The decentralized Chainlink network, led by its co-founder Sergey Nazarov, is multiplying alliances with the Trump administration, paving the way for unprecedented government uses. Behind these agreements, a clear ambition: to make blockchain a tool of institutional trust.

Artificial intelligence is no longer an option for leaders; it has become an extension of their executive brain. While many employees fear that AI will eliminate their jobs, CEOs use it as a strategic lever to stay competitive. Satya Nadella, head of Microsoft, recently revealed the five GPT-5 prompts he inserts daily into Copilot to boost his work. Concrete evidence that, even at the top, AI is not a gadget but a tool for professional survival.

While most nations are still hesitant to take the step, Kazakhstan is accelerating. Its president, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, has just announced the creation of a national cryptocurrency reserve, accompanied by a clear call to build a true ecosystem of digital assets. A bold decision for this Central Asian country, already a major player in global mining.

Since 2011, Satoshi Nakamoto has disappeared, leaving behind an unresolved enigma. However, some believe that the threat of quantum computing could force his return. This is the somewhat crazy but fascinating thesis of Joseph Chalom, co-CEO of SharpLink Gaming

Since its creation, Ethereum (ETH) has continually surprised the markets. But the latest indicator marks an unprecedented milestone. For the first time, Ethereum's exchange balance has turned negative: in other words, more ETH leave trading platforms than enter. This rare phenomenon could be the fuel for a surge towards $7,000, according to several analysts.

In just three days, the American stock market witnessed a rare spectacle: eight of the largest tech companies saw their capitalization jump by 420 billion dollars. A lightning movement that repositions Google at the center of the game and confirms how regulatory decisions and advances in artificial intelligence now influence Wall Street.

Crypto crime cases related to digital assets are taking an increasingly worrying turn in Europe. In France, a new kidnapping involving a young Swiss person has just been foiled, recalling previous waves of attacks that had sown panic in the Web3 ecosystem. Seven suspects have been arrested, but many grey areas remain.

September starts with a marked contrast on crypto ETFs: Bitcoin captures $333M in inflows, while Ether suffers $135M in outflows. This movement confirms bitcoin's place as a safe haven, but the decline in overall volume ($3.93B) and net assets ($143.21B) highlights persistent caution in the crypto market. Crypto ETF flows reveal a clear divide between triumphant Bitcoin and struggling Ether. This crypto dynamic reflects a strategic repositioning by investors, strengthening confidence in Bitcoin despite the caution.

After the January explosion, interest in memecoins sees a more measured return. Google searches indicate persistent curiosity, but less euphoric, reflecting a new caution among investors. Without the usual noise from social networks and Crypto Twitter, this crypto dynamic could mark an evolution towards a more mature market approach.

In South Korea, Tesla no longer embodies the dream of retail investors. According to Bloomberg, nearly 1.8 billion dollars vanished in four months, including 657 million in August alone, marking the largest outflow since 2019. Behind this disenchantment, a growing unease: lacking a new narrative around AI or autonomous driving, the manufacturer no longer captivates as much. Result: despite its status as the most held foreign stock, Korean investors are abandoning Tesla for bets considered more dynamic and quicker.

Rumors are circulating about the possible kidnapping of a CEO of a crypto platform that allegedly took place this morning in Le Bourget in the 93. A video is circulating showing the kidnapping live. For now, no official confirmation has been given by police services.
