Bitcoin’s future in an artificial intelligence-driven world may depend less on code and more on central banks.In a new note, Greg Cipolaro, global head of research at financial services and infrastructure firm NYDIG, argued that artificial intelligence will affect bitcoin mainly through macroeconomic channels and its impact on the labor market.The key variables are growth, employment, real interest rates and liquidity. Bitcoin, he writes, sits downstream of those forces.If automation cuts jobs and wages, consumer demand could weaken and, in a severe case, falling incomes would strain debt payments and pressure asset prices.Those fears appear to be well-grounded. Just this…

  Tokenization is no longer a future concept. It is the infrastructure upgrade that is reshaping global finance today. Trillions in real-world assets — real estate, private credit, funds, equities and more — are moving on-chain. Leading this shift is Securitize, the institutional-grade tokenization platform powering BlackRock’s BUIDL fund, partnering with major banks and asset managers, and executing landmark deals such as tokenized luxury resorts. In the first nine months of 2025 alone, Securitize reported $55.6 million in revenue, an 841% increase year-over-year. Full-year 2024 revenue reached $18.8 million (129% growth), with $4B+ in assets under management as of November…

Car insurance for rideshare drivers is tricky because your personal auto policy may not cover you the whole time you’re driving for Uber, Lyft, or a delivery app. Coverage can change depending on whether you’re waiting for a request, on the way to pick someone up, or actively driving a passenger. To find the best insurance for rideshare drivers, Yahoo Finance analyzed 20 major insurers across rideshare availability, full coverage rates, discounts, coverage options, and protective add-ons like accident forgiveness and gap insurance. The companies below stood out for offering the right mix of affordable rideshare coverage and policy features…

Democrats in the U.S. Senate continue to pile onto Binance, asking the Treasury and Justice departments to investigate its sanctions compliance and protections against illicit finance following reports of potential terrorism funding.Nine senators, including a few that have been instrumental in negotiations over the crypto industry legislation known as the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, sent a letter Friday to the chiefs of the federal agencies, requesting they probe the exchange after news reports on possible breaches, which also claimed the company had fired some of the compliance personnel involved in discovering the transactions.The latest move from Democrats follows an…

Blockchains and artificial intelligence are complementary technologies, according to crypto asset manager Grayscale, even as markets have recently treated them as part of the same trade.Zach Pandl, Grayscale’s head of research, said that while disruptive technologies tend to produce clear winners and losers, the relationship between AI and blockchain is more symbiotic than competitive. Rapid AI adoption is expected to reward some industries, such as chipmakers, while pressuring others, including segments of professional services.”Although crypto valuations have been tightly correlated with the drawdown in software stocks, we think blockchains and AI are complementary from a fundamental standpoint,” he said in…

Funds Locked On-Chain and Automatically Release Only When WIF Deployer transfers ownership.  GOTPROOF, the infrastructure protocol for verifiable payments, spend proofs, and asset verification, today announced it has deposited $250,000 into a public Proof smart contract. The funds will remain locked until the original deployer of the WIF (dogwifhat) token submits their wallet, at which point the full amount will transfer automatically. This is not a marketing stunt. It is a live, on-chain demonstration of how high-value coordination can happen with verifiable, cryptographic guarantees.  “Large on-chain deals are still coordinated through private DMs, informal escrow, and reputation-based trust,” said Todd,…
