In November 2024, the SEC celebrated 583 enforcement actions and a record $8.2 billion in remedies, saying crypto was proof it could keep pace with emerging threats. This week, the same agency published a 2025 review calling that approach a mistake. The new report said prior resources were misapplied, criticized the pursuit of “media headlines,” and described the past year as a “necessary course correction” that included dismissing seven crypto registration-related cases. While this is a clear sign that the SEC is easing up on crypto, the report also carries a silent admission. We see now that it’s publicly disowning…

Jupiter, the largest decentralized exchange aggregator by trading volume, today announced a new developer tool, the Express Verification API by Jupiter VRFD. The verification API allows launchpads, DEXs, and AI agents to integrate verification into their token creation flows, so that tokens can be verified programmatically. The three-step API flow involves a developer creating and signing a Solana transaction burning 1,000 $JUP, then submitting the verification request alongside any token metadata updates in a single call. As Jupiter’s documentation explains, verification and metadata updates are reviewed independently, meaning a metadata change can go through even if a verification request is…

NeoLine has shipped v5.8.1 of its Chrome extension wallet with full support for NEP-21, the unified dAPI standard that Neo co-founder Erik Zhang finalized last week. The update makes NeoLine the first wallet in the Neo ecosystem to implement the standard’s IDapiProvider interface, a common set of methods that allows decentralized applications to communicate with wallet providers through a single, consistent integration. NEP-21 addresses a longstanding fragmentation problem on Neo N3. Without a shared interface, dApp developers had to write separate integration logic for each wallet, and users encountered inconsistent behavior depending on which wallet they connected. The standard defines…

The ECB said in an opinion published on Friday that it fully supports bringing oversight of systemically important cross-border capital market companies, such as large trading platforms and crypto companies, under the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA). The central bank said the proposals “constitute an ambitious step towards deeper integration of capital markets and financial market supervision within the Union.” The opinion is nonbinding, but it will still be a major boost to the plan,…
