"Like signing a deal with the Bored Ape Yacht Club when Gargamel and Gordon were not doxxed individualsβthat got me nervous," she told Stacy Elliott and Andrew Hayward. "Approving the first ever ETH purchase on a public company. Like DAX organizations are pretty risk averse. I was like, ...
Avenged Sevenfold lead singer Matt Sanders, a.k.a. M. Shadows, is rehearsing for the band's upcoming tour and also figuring out how to upend what it means to be a fan.

"There's a ton of risk when you engage in this, you know, wantonly criminal behavior and steal $200 million from someone else," he said. "Th...
There's no doubt that the SEC dealt Krakenβand the outlook for crypto staking products in the U.S.βa big blow when it announced a $30 million settlement and ordered the company to stop offering the service to its customers in the states in February. Now Marco Santori, the company's chief legal officer, says the exchange is eager to move on from it. That means reckoning with a really challenging regulatory environment and growing it...
Arthur Hayes says the speed at which projects like Terra grow and then implode is a feature of the crypto industry, not a bug. He founded crypto exchange Bitmex in 2014 and then became the original crypto bad boy. In 2021 the DOJ charged him in with violating the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act for not implementing an anti-money laundering program at Bitmex. He plead guilty and was sentenced to two years probation and six months of home dete...

Move over, DeFiβReFi is coming?
