Analysts said derivatives data shows a wave of profit-taking driving the top crypto’s weekend decline. More than $300 million worth of positions were liquidated due to the minor dip in Bitcoin’s price, according to CoinGlass. An uptick in put-buying activity noted over the last two weeks and near-zero median return for Bitcoin…

Ten-year-olds still swing machetes on Ghanaian cocoa farms that feed global chocolate giants. After decades of industry promises, over 1.5 million children work in conditions that would be illegal anywhere else. Swiss blockchain firm Fedrok AG and Ghanaian agribusiness FarmRight Ghana have launched a pilot designed to help prevent child labor from cocoa and palm oil supply chains.

The initiative targets a problem that has persisted despite years of industry commitments. Ghana produces approximately…

Tokenized assets recorded on public blockchains have reached approximately $293 billion, according to data from RWA.xyz.

That is why zero-trust security has become a standard in digital infrastructure. Instead of assuming that anyone inside a network is trustworthy, zero-trust architectures require continuous verification of each user, device, and action. This requires…
