In order to multiply your gains without increasing your skill, high-leverage trading is frequently promoted as a quick route to financial success.

The European Union’s newest tax transparency law for digital assets takes effect Jan. 1, marking a shift in how crypto activity faces scrutiny across the bloc. Known as DAC8, the directive extends the EU’s long-running framework for administrative cooperation on taxation to crypto assets and related service providers. The rules require crypto-asset service providers, including exchanges and brokers, to collect and report detailed information on users and transactions to national tax authorities. Those authorities then share the data across EU member states. The move matters because it closes a gap that left parts of the crypto economy outside standard tax…

In an industry well-accustomed to flash and self-promotion, Ethereum has long seemed an outlier. The network’s builders have historically focused on technical accomplishments and an ideal of decentralization so pure, critics say, that they can sometimes lose sight of the bigger economic and political picture. But this year, amidst seismic regulatory developments for the crypto industry, Ethereum has stealthily made huge inroads in arenas it long was perceived to have neglected. From Wall Street board rooms to social media timelines, 2025 was the year Ethereum finally conquered centralized institutions. For nearly half a decade, Wall Street veteran Vivek Raman has…

Call it some air slipping out what might be an AI bubble, or the Fed engineering a tightening in liquidity into a growing economic slowdown, or some combination of the two, but markets are pulling back again on Thursday. Just before the noon hour on the east coast, the Nasdaq is lower by 2% and the S&P 500 down 1.2%.
