Today, key aspects of the summit's agenda were revealed, giving priority to risk management and support strategies. Leaders from major countries, top tech organizations, academic circles, and civic groups will converge at the event to discuss expedient actions in the cutting-edge arena of AI development. The UK's representatives are of the opinion that fostering AI investment could significantly benefit society and economic productivity, but only if done within a regulatory framework. “Without appropriate guardrails, this technology also poses significant risks in ways that do not respect national boundaries.

Atomic Wallet has landed in legal hot waters. This development comes after a hacking event that wiped out more than $100 million.

JPMorgan reports that Bitcoin miners are diversifying their operations in anticipation of the upcoming halving event, which will slash their rewards. Miners are now venturing into the booming artificial intelligence (AI) market, offering high-performance computing services. This shift is partly funded by selling newly minted or existing bitcoins. Companies like Applied Digital and Iris Energy are already making strides in AI cloud services. Additionally, post Ethereum's shift from proof-of-work, former Ethereum miners are leveraging GPUs for AI, finding it potentially more profitable than traditional mining.

Coin Center, a crypto-focused policy nonprofit, has reached out to Congress members, urging for more transparent crypto tax regulations. In a letter to Senate Finance Committee's Ron Wyden and Mike Crapo, Coin Center emphasized the need for guidance on cryptocurrency taxation, especially concerning capital gains. They suggested a threshold for gains below which no tax would be due. Coin Center also stressed the importance of a "de minimis" exemption, without which, every small crypto transaction could become a taxable event. This exemption would simplify the use of cryptocurrencies for daily payments, especially for micropayments.
