Cold storage, long presented as the ultimate bulwark against hacking, has just suffered one of its biggest setbacks. A critical software vulnerability affecting Coldcard wallets enabled the theft of tens of millions of dollars in bitcoin, reviving questions about the limits of self-custody.

CZ, however, presented this idea as a question intended for the community, not as a personal initiative.
Changpeng Zhao wants to push states to tokenize their shares to make them accessible to investors worldwide. The founder of Binance envisions a market where national stablecoins, stock securities, and crypto liquidity would circulate on the same infrastructures. But regulation could slow down this ambition.

Trump launches a stablecoin, Binance rolls out the red carpet, and here is USD1 at the top. Political coincidences or decentralized finance with a MAGA twist? The crypto story is written in capital letters.
In a crypto market marked by euphoria and panic, Changpeng Zhao, founder of Binance, gives decisive advice.
