1️⃣ FTX Might Settle Its $24 Billion IRS Tax Bill for $200 Million 🔍

FTX is reportedly looking to settle the Internal Revenue Service’s $24 billion claim for a fraction of the amount, clearing the way for the crypto exchange to pay out significant customer recoveries. Specifically, FTX has proposed that the IRS shall receive a $200 million claim in FTX’s bankruptcy and a $685 million lower priority claim, payable on a subordinated basis to customers and other creditors. The FTX Debtors argue that the IRS has wrongly included misappropriated funds from Sam Bankman-Fried and other tax liabilities in their calculations. The settlement will become effective after it is approved by a bankruptcy judge and its broader restructuring plan becomes effective.

6️⃣ Block Earner Spared Penalty In Regulator’s Crypto Yield Suit ‼️

Australia’s federal court has reportedly spared fintech firm Block Earner from paying a fine despite the court finding it offered a crypto yield-bearing product without a financial services license. Notably, Justice Ian Jackman ruled that Block Earner doesn't need to pay a penalty since it acted honestly in seeking to engage with the government over regulation of crypto-related products and services. The judge also ordered the country's financial regulator ASIC to pay some of the legal dispute costs with Block Earner and chided it for publishing a "misleading media release." Specifically, ASIC had published a press release entitled "Court finds Block Earner crypto product needs financial services licence," which the judge held as "unfair and misleading" giving rise to “reputational damage.”

2️⃣ Matter Labs Pulls ZK Trademark Application After Backlash 🔍

Matter Labs, the corporate entity behind Ethereum layer 2 scaling protocol zkSync, has reportedly abandoned plans to register the term "ZK" as a trademark. Notably, the decision comes three days after several leading ZK researchers condemned the firm’s behaviour “in the strongest possible terms,” iterating that ZK technologies should instead remain a “public good” that is “accessible to all.”

Matter Labs stated,

Thank you to everyone who reached out following our post, offering ideas, support, and feedback. As a result of these conversations, we decided to drop all trademark applications for the term “ZK”. These discussions came down to one important fact: it would be impossible to agree on a group of people perceived as credibly neutral by nearly everyone. What could have worked for Ethereum would not necessarily work for the entire world. We're proud to be a part of a movement that cares so deeply about cypherpunk values. And we are incredibly grateful to the zksync community in particular for the thousands of messages of support we received, once again affirming that community is everything.

WHY?!

☄️ Yesterday, Reuters reported that Apple CEO Tim Cook has agreed at the request of Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida to put Japan's "My Number" identification card functions onto iPhones.

In the release, the company explains that it is creating an “iTrust Identity Confirmation Service” which will use Jasmy’s blockchain.

🚨 New Video Alert!! 🚨

When the spot Bitcoin ETFs were approved at the start of the year, asset managers such as Blackrock were racing to get them on offer to their customers.

Not all of them, though. One of the largest asset managers in the world, Vanguard, refused to offer this product to their investors, and continues to refuse to this day. Tim Buckley, Vanguard’s “current” CEO, has repeatedly shared his view that Bitcoin does not belong in any long-term portfolio.

We say “current” in quotation marks, because Tim is now stepping down from the position, set to be replaced by Salim Ramji, an executive from none other than rival firm Blackrock. Given Blackrock’s relation to the spot Bitcoin ETFs, this has a lot of people speculating that Vanguard could change its stance on Bitcoin.

Today, we’ll take a close look to try and determine the likelihood of that happening, and what impacts this would have on Vanguard, as well as the wider crypto market.
