Donald Trump reaffirmed his support for cryptocurrency, stating that digital assets will strengthen the U.S. dollar and benefit the nation. “It’s good for the dollar, it’s good for our country,” Trump said while highlighting his administration’s push to integrate crypto into the financial system.

The remarks come as Trump signed the GENIUS Act, a law establishing regulatory framework for U.S. dollar‑based stablecoins and promoting America’s leadership in digital assets. The legislation aims to bolster the dollar’s reserve currency status while encouraging innovation and investment in the crypto sector.

NASDAQ announced a major change to its trading framework, raising limits for institutional investors buying Bitcoin ETF options contracts by 40 times. The move significantly expands the capacity for large funds and financial institutions to engage in Bitcoin‑linked derivatives on the exchange.

The expanded limits are expected to take effect immediately, giving institutions far greater flexibility in managing their positions.

A thief posing as a UPS delivery driver carried out a violent crypto heist in San Francisco, stealing $11 million in Bitcoin and Ethereum from a tech investor linked to Sam Altman’s former partner. The incident occurred on November 22 when the suspect arrived at a $4.4 million property, asked for the victim by name, and gained entry under the guise of delivering a package.

The suspect pulled a gun, restrained the victim with duct tape, and allegedly beat and tortured him while foreign voices relayed personal information over the phone. The attacker then stole the victim’s phone and laptop before draining his crypto wallets of millions in digital assets. Police later found the victim with minor injuries at the scene.

Reports confirmed that property was owned by Lachy Groom, Sam Altman’s former partner, in a neighborhood known for housing tech leaders. The victim, identified only as Joshua, is a tech investor living with Groom. Authorities have not confirmed arrests, and the case underscores the growing risk of physical attacks targeting crypto holders.

Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin has cautioned that quantum computers could break Ethereum’s core cryptographic protections as early as 2028. He also explained that elliptic curve cryptography, which secures Ethereum wallets and transaction signatures, would be vulnerable once quantum hardware reaches sufficient scale, potentially exposing the network to unprecedented risks.

He warned Ethereum developers to adopt into post‑quantum security measures before the end of the decade. If quantum breakthroughs continue at their current pace, Ethereum’s existing defenses may no longer be sufficient, forcing the blockchain to transition into quantum resistant cryptography to safeguard its ecosystem.

The White House is preparing new rules that would tax American foreign crypto accounts by joining the international Crypto‑Asset Reporting Framework (CARF). The proposal, advanced by the Treasury Department, would give the IRS access to information on U.S. taxpayers holding digital assets abroad, closing loopholes that allow capital gains to go unreported.

Once adopted, the measure would align the United States with dozens of countries already participating in CARF, ensuring automatic data sharing on offshore crypto holdings. The move was broader part of washington’s push for tighter oversight on digital assets and marks a significant step to tax transparency in the crypto sector.
