Crypto in Retirement Funds: What a $9 Trillion Market Shift Could Mean

A major change is on the horizon: an executive order now allows cryptocurrencies—and private equity—to potentially be included in U.S. 401(k) retirement plans. This move could unlock over $9 trillion in retirement assets for digital investment, as policymakers redefine what counts as an acceptable fund option.   What’s Actually Changing? This executive order directs the Department of Labor and other federal agencies to reconsider which investments are allowed in 401(k) plans. Currently, most of these accounts are limited to stocks, bonds, and cash equivalents. The new guidance could pave the way for regulated crypto options and diversified alternative assets to be smoothly integrated into retirement portfolios.   Redefining Traditional Access to Digital Assets This isn’t about sensational headlines—this could fundamentally reshape long-term demand for Bitcoin and other crypto by enabling millions to dollar-cost average using their paycheck contributions. While being an excel

Week #33: Cryptocurrencies with Recent Developments to Watch This Week

Crypto markets are seeing renewed activity this week, with fresh institutional moves and notable on-chain shifts driving token-specific momentum. Sui gains traction through a regulated banking partnership, Bittensor rebounds on a major treasury stake, and Tron records one of its largest profit-taking events of the year—each shaping market sentiment in distinct ways.   Sui (SUI): Institutional On-Ramp Gains Momentum: SUI climbed 13.7% to $3.95, pushing toward the $4 mark after Swiss digital asset bank Sygnum announced a partnership with the Sui Foundation to expand regulated institutional access to the network. The arrangement will provide custody, spot and derivatives trading for SUI, with staking services to follow in the coming weeks and collateral-backed Lombard loans slated for Q4. Targeting banks, asset managers and high-net-worth clients, Sygnum says all holdings will remain bankruptcy-remote and off the bank’s balance sheet. The move positions Sui for deeper penetration int

How Blockchain Can Help Fight Deepfakes

The rise of AI-generated deepfakes has made it easier than ever to create convincing—but completely fake—images, videos, and even official documents. While this technology can be used for entertainment or creativity, it also poses a serious risk for misinformation, fraud, and identity theft. Blockchain, however, might just be one of the best defenses against such security challenges.   A Prime Example In a move that has brought attention to such possibilities, the government of the Philippines that could reshape public sector transparency, launching a blockchain-based notarization system on Polygon to verify government budget documents. By recording a cryptographic “hash” of each document on a public blockchain, the system creates a permanent, tamper-evident record.   Here’s how it works: When a document is created—like a Special Allotment Release Order (SARO) or a Notice of Cash Allocation (NCA)—the system generates a unique cryptographic hash based on its contents. That ha

The GENIUS Act – What This Means for the Middle East's Digital Economy

As the digital economy races forward globally, the US is doubling down on its commitment to emerging technologies through a bold legislative step. The United States has taken a bold step by enacting the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for US Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act, the first major US legislation regulating stablecoins. Signed into law by President Donald Trump, the GENIUS Act marks a turning point for the crypto industry, promising to bring stablecoins into the mainstream financial system. But what does this mean for the Middle East, particularly the UAE and the KSA, where the digital economy is rapidly evolving?   What is the GENIUS Act? The GENIUS Act establishes a clear regulatory framework for stablecoins, addressing a long-standing need for oversight in a sector operating in a legal gray area. With this bill, it joins a growing list of countries seeking to bring oversight and stability to the rapidly expanding digital asset ecosystem. Three key provisions inclu

PYUSD, USDG, and EURC: How Visa's Blockchain Expansion is Changing the Way We Pay

The future of payments is beginning to reveal itself, with TradFi payments giant Visa announcing a major expansion of its stablecoin settlement platform. Having just added support for PayPal’s PYUSD, the Paxos-issued USDG, and Circle’s EURC, and extended blockchain compatibility to Stellar and Avalanche, Visa has been making waves with a plethora of new additions to its payments infrastructure.   Coincidental Timing? The move comes just weeks after the GENIUS Act – the U.S’s first standalone regulation (Read more here!) – was passed, offering a clearer legal framework for how dollar- and euro-backed digital currencies can operate. The timing of Visa’s move here appears to be no coincidence – what could the latest move of this TradFi behemoth mean for crypto users?   For starters, it’s a big milestone for cross-border settlement. By supporting both dollar and euro stablecoins, businesses and consumers can take advantage of one o

The TradFi Wave of Crypto Adoption: From Pilot Projects to Full Integration

Crypto is no longer just for exchanges, startups, or DeFi protocols—it’s becoming part of everyday banking. In the last few weeks alone, traditional financial institutions from the UAE, to Belgium, to Japan have rolled out new crypto services, signaling a new wave of adoption from some of the world’s most trusted banks.   From Experiments to Execution For years, “crypto adoption by banks” meant pilot programs, closed beta tests, or experimental custody services – things the everyday trader wouldn’t have had access to, short of maybe some news headlines. That’s changing fast. According to a recent joint report by Ripple, CB Insights, and the UK’s CBT, traditional financial institutions have invested more than $100 billion in blockchain initiatives since 2020, with a growing focus on real-world products for customers.   The UAE’s Rakbank just became the first traditional bank in the region to enable retail crypto trading directly in its mobile app. South Korea’s Wo

Is Altcoin Season Upon Us? Here’s What the Data Says

Every few months, the same question makes the rounds in crypto circles: is it altcoin season yet? This time, there might just be reason to pay attention. The Altcoin Season Index recently hit 60—its highest point in 2025—before cooling off and rebounding to 51. That’s not an official confirmation, but it’s a sign momentum may be shifting.   What Is Altcoin Season, Anyway? In simple terms, altcoin season is when altcoins—cryptocurrencies other than Bitcoin and excluding popular stablecoins—outperform BTC over a set period. By popular definition, if 75% of the top 50 non-stablecoin assets have better 90-day returns than Bitcoin, the market is in altcoin season. Right now, we’re not quite there. But the recent spike in the index shows more coins are starting to outperform Bitcoin, signaling that traders may be rotating capital from BTC into assets like Ethereum, Solana, and other top altcoins.   Why the Momentum Matters Several factors are fueling the shift: Bitcoin consolidati
