This is a strong gesture that marks the first 100 days of Donald Trump’s second term as President of the United States: the president has officially granted his presidential pardon to the three co-founders of the crypto exchange platform BitMEX — Arthur Hayes, Benjamin Delo, and Samuel Reed. Convicted in 2022 for violating the Bank Secrecy Act, the three crypto entrepreneurs had acknowledged that they neglected to implement effective anti-money laundering (AML) systems and customer identity verification ( KYC ). BitMEX was fined $100 million in January 2025 and placed on probation for two years. Donald Trump’s decision to wipe the criminal records of these iconic figures in the crypto sector is part of a broader strategy. Barely back in power, the Republican president is signaling support for the digital asset industry, breaking from the more restrictive approach of the Biden administration. However, Sam Bankman-Fried, former CEO of FTX sentenced to 25 years in prison for fraud, remains incarcerated despite his parents’ pleas for leniency and his own efforts in this regard. He has even been secretly transferred and placed in “isolation” after making shocking revelations to Tucker Carlson. This disparity in Donald Trump’s decisions raises questions about the potential political motivations behind these acts of clemency. This gesture already provokes mixed reactions. For supporters of cryptocurrency, it is a clear signal of political support for entrepreneurs in the sector. Some see it as a desire to make the United States a global crypto hub by easing regulatory pressure on exchange platforms. But critics denounce a form of impunity, highlighting that the offenses committed by the founders of BitMEX — Arthur Hayes, Benjamin Delo, and Samuel Reed, jeopardized the financial integrity of the system. This pardon from Donald Trump, although legal, could undermine the credibility of regulatory efforts in decentralized finance. With this new pardon, Donald Trump confirms his intention to rehabilitate key figures in the crypto sector. After having pardoned Ross Ulbricht, founder of Silk Road , it is now the turn of the BitMEX creators to benefit from his clemency. A strong message for a crypto-economy placed at the heart of his political agenda.

What if France became a hub of innovation for Bitcoin? While the debates on cryptocurrency often oscillate between fascination and distrust, Clara Chappaz, the delegated minister for Digital Affairs, opens an unprecedented door: exploiting French nuclear power to mine Bitcoin. A bold proposal, blending economic pragmatism and energy sovereignty. During a visit to Ledger, a French leader in blockchain security, the minister outlined a vision where the Hexagon could tame the paradoxes of Bitcoin. Not without nuance. The idea is not new, but it is gaining credibility. EDF, a public energy giant, is drowning under a debt of 65 billion euros. However, its nuclear plants sometimes produce an unused surplus of electricity… Why not convert this energy into Bitcoin? A simple calculation: cryptocurrency mining valorizes excess electricity, generating instant revenues. Marine Le Pen mentioned it in Flamanville, but the government remained silent. Until now. Clara Chappaz breaks the taboo. “This subject has been captured by extreme fringes of public debate, while it deserves serious analysis” No noisy communication, but a thorough study. The recent appointment of Bernard Fontana at the head of EDF offers a fresh perspective. “We need to evaluate this without ideology, ask the right economic questions”, she insists . A pragmatism that contrasts with traditional postures. There remains a pitfall: the image of Bitcoin, often associated with speculation or pollution. The minister knows this. “It’s inter-ministerial, not just digital”, she slips. An implicit admission: to convince Bercy or the Energy Transition, figures will be needed, not slogans. What if France became a low carbon mining laboratory? The equation is tempting… but fragile. If Bitcoin crystallizes economic hopes, it also questions French digital sovereignty. Another challenge awaits Clara Chappaz: reconciling innovation and regulation, between digital euro and administrative sluggishness. The digital euro is advancing, but fears persist. Christine Lagarde (ECB) sets October 2025 as the deadline for its launch. Behind the scenes, Clara Chappaz listens to French stakeholders. The protection of personal data is crucial, she reminds. A message to Brussels, where the project struggles to reassure. The minister promises dialogue spaces to carry local voices. But Europe is moving slowly, and France must play collectively. “Let’s organize ourselves!”, she urges the ecosystem. Specifically, French companies need to unite their positions, despite their differences. A challenge: how to reconcile pro-Bitcoin start-ups and traditional banks? The minister sees herself as a mediator, “a bridge between France and Europe.” A key role, as the European regulator (MiCA) imposes strict rules. Another grievance: the delays from the AMF. PSAN approval requests drag on, hampering innovation. Clara Chappaz tackles the subject head-on. “I’ve discussed this with the AMF. Let’s simplify, let’s draw inspiration from abroad.” A veiled criticism towards an administration that can sometimes be paralyzed. For the minister, accelerating procedures is vital. Can France become a crypto hub while respecting standards? The balance is delicate. Clara Chappaz embodies a new generation of decision-makers: tech-savvy, yet realistic. Her approach to Bitcoin? Neither idealism nor rejection, but a quest for added value made in France. Between nuclear mining and the digital euro, the road is fraught with obstacles. But one certainty remains: France refuses to be a spectator in a society where cash could soon disappear .

The Central Bank of the UAE (CBUAE) has announced significant progress in its Digital Dirham initiative, unveiling the official symbol for the nation’s digital currency. It also confirmed a planned retail launch in the final quarter of 2025. This development is a key component of the CBUAE’s Financial Infrastructure Transformation (FIT) Programme, designed to solidify the UAE’s position as a global leader in financial market infrastructure and digital financial innovation. The Digital Dirham, underpinned by Federal Decree-Law No. (54) of 2023, is set to become a legal tender, ensuring its acceptance across all payment outlets and channels alongside physical currency. According to a statement, the CBUAE aims to create a secure and efficient digital version of the national currency, leveraging blockchain technology to reduce payment costs and ensure data privacy. Individuals and businesses will be able to access the Digital Dirham through licensed financial institutions, including banks, exchange houses, finance companies, and fintech firms. In the statement, the CBUAE highlighted key advantages of the Digital Dirham, including its ability to facilitate tokenization for improved financial inclusion and liquidity. It also cited its compatibility with smart contracts for automated and instant transaction settlements. H.E. Khaled Mohamed Balama, Governor of the CBUAE, said: “We are proud to unveil today the new symbol for the UAE’s national currency the ‘Dirham’ in both its physical and digital forms, and the design of the Digital Dirham wallet. This reflects the significant advancements in the implementation of the Digital Dirham programme and a leap towards realising the CBUAE’s vision.” To support the Digital Dirham, the CBUAE has developed an integrated and secure platform, including a user-friendly digital wallet. This wallet will enable a range of financial transactions, including retail, wholesale, and cross-border payments. The platform is designed to accommodate innovative financial solutions, catering to the UAE’s rapidly growing digital economy. Balama added: “It is anticipated that the Digital Dirham as a blockchain based platform with cutting edge capabilities shall substantially enhance financial stability, inclusion, resilience, and combatting financial crime. It will further enable the development of innovative digital products, services, and new business models, while reducing cost and increasing access to international markets.” The CBUAE’s initiative aims to establish a flexible and advanced financial system, reinforcing the UAE’s competitive edge as a leading financial hub and global digital payments platform. 免责声明：本文章仅代表作者个人观点，不代表本平台的立场和观点。本文章仅供信息分享，不构成对任何人的任何投资建议。用户与作者之间的任何争议，与本平台无关。如网页中刊载的文章或图片涉及侵权，请提供相关的权利证明和身份证明发送邮件到support@aicoin.com，本平台相关工作人员将会进行核查。

Hong Kong-based crypto firm HashKey has launched a new initiative to rate cryptocurrencies and exchanges in a bid to enhance market transparency and compliance. Cryptocurrency trading group HashKey has unveiled a new initiative to rate cryptocurrencies and crypto exchanges in Hong Kong to help the local crypto businesses align with regulatory framework for virtual assets, issued by the Securities and Futures Commission. In an X post on Thursday, March 27, HashKey said it partnered with the Hong Kong Virtual Asset Rating Company, which will provide three key services: virtual asset ratings, exchange ratings, and virtual asset indices. According to HashKey, the initiative aims to build an “industry evaluation ecosystem” offering “objective quantitative standards” for both exchanges and investors. The goal is to strengthen market transparency and create compliance benchmarks, which, in turn, could help solidify Hong Kong’s role as a global virtual asset hub. Per HashKey, the ratings would provide risk indicators to help investors make more informed decisions. Earlier in February, Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission proposed increasing its staff, with a particular focus on monitoring virtual asset trading platforms, improving market surveillance, and ramping up enforcement. In its budget plan for the 2025–26 financial year, the SFC is seeking 15 new hires, eight of whom will be dedicated to virtual asset regulation. HashKey secured a $30 million investment from Beijing-based Gaorong Ventures, which valued the company at $1.5 billion. The investment came shortly after HashKey Capital, the group’s investment arm, received approval from the SFC to manage crypto investment products for high-net-worth clients.
