Как заявили представители Tokyo Electric Power, первые фермы для добычи биткоина уже установлены в префектурах Тогити и Гумма, а также в пригородах Токио.

Солнечные батареи позволят предотвратить бесполезную трату возобновляемой энергии и будут способствовать более широкому распространению майнинга первой криптовалюты в стране.

«То, что мы делаем, практически не имеет аналогов в Японии. Успех нашего эксперимента будет способствовать внедрению и распространению возобновляемой энергии, а также расширению способов добычи биткоина без ущерба для экологии», — сообщил президент компании Кендзи Татейва (Kenji Tateiwa).

В Agile Energy X, дочерней компании Tokyo Electric Power, заявили, что планируют расширить географию использования майнинговых ферм, оснащенных солнечными панелями в других префектурах, особенно в сельской местности.

Ранее Агентство финансовых услуг Японии (FSA) сообщило, что готово к пересмотру положений Налогового кодекса, которые позволят снизить действующую ставку налога на криптоактивы для всех участников рынка в 2025 году.

Why Ethereum’s Record 29.6M ETH Turnover Signals A High-Velocity Speculative Trap

Ethereum has rebounded above $2,100 amid a broader crypto market stabilization, showing signs of cautious recovery. On-chain data from CryptoQuant indicates a significant increase in trading activity, with Binance recording a 30-day turnover of 29.6 million ETH—the highest since last September. This elevated turnover suggests intensified market participation, with coins circulating multiple times, reflected in a high liquidity ratio of 8.47. Such activity often signals speculative trading or repositioning during volatile periods, rather than outright selling pressure. Technically, ETH remains below key moving averages, indicating a bearish trend, but has stabilized near $2,150 after a sharp correction from its 2025 highs. Buyers appear to be defending the $1,900 support level. For a more constructive outlook, Ethereum would need to reclaim the $2,400–$2,600 range and establish higher highs.

Gen-Z now drives 72% of P2P crypto payments – Report

A new report from crypto exchange NoOnes reveals that Generation Z is the dominant force in peer-to-peer (P2P) crypto payments, accounting for 72% of all transfers. Millennials follow at 24%, while Gen X trails significantly at 4%. Regionally, Asia leads in P2P usage (74%), followed by Latin America (62%) and Africa (54%), with Europe and North America showing the lowest adoption rates. This trend aligns with broader crypto adoption, where the APAC region saw a massive surge in activity. The report notes that younger generations are more receptive to new technologies, and the convenience of mobile security features is driving usage. However, despite this strong adoption, P2P payment growth is being outpaced by crypto card payments, which surged 106% to $1.6 billion in the last three years compared to just 5% for P2P. While P2P is the second most dominant stablecoin payment method by value after B2B, cards are a strong third. The findings suggest that for crypto firms to scale, a mobile-first strategy is essential.

Stole $2 Million from pump.fun, Sentenced to 6 Years in Prison, He Chose to 'Self-Destruct'

In May 2024, pump.fun was exploited for approximately $2 million worth of SOL and meme coins. The attacker, Jarett Dunn (also known as Stacc), a former employee, was later sentenced to six years in prison. Two days prior to the sentencing, he leaked internal Telegram chats from his time at the company, claiming to be a whistleblower exposing misconduct. However, the leaked messages did not reveal deliberate malicious activities such as market manipulation or fee misconduct by pump.fun. Instead, Dunn highlighted issues like the team's failure to implement KYC/AML measures for live streaming features, which he had warned about, and what he perceived as irresponsible attitudes toward known "Ruggers" (developers who abandon projects after fundraising). Some messages also illustrated the company's early-stage disorganization, including rushed contracts under investor pressure. Dunn, a talented programmer diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia at age 20, had joined pump.fun just six weeks before the attack. His mother had recently died, and he had been off medication for months. After the exploit, he was arrested near pump.fun’s London office and underwent mental health treatment. He later attempted to withdraw his guilty plea and expressed homelessness in social media posts. The leak included private phone numbers of pump.fun co-founders, raising privacy concerns. The overall narrative portrays a troubled individual whose actions were influenced by personal trauma and mental health challenges, rather than clear evidence of systemic corruption at pump.fun.

RWA Weekly: Republicans Urge Senate to Adopt House Crypto Bill, EU's 12-Bank Alliance Qivalis Plans to Launch Euro Stablecoin

RWA Weekly Digest: March 6, 2026 The RWA sector continues to grow, with the total on-chain market cap reaching $26.52 billion. The stablecoin market cap saw a slight increase to $299.09 billion, marking two consecutive months of growth, while monthly active addresses rose to 53.48 million. Key regulatory developments include the U.S. Fed affirming a "technology-neutral" capital treatment for tokenized securities, and a U.S. Senate housing bill that included a temporary ban on a CBDC until 2030. The OCC issued rules limiting indirect interest payments on stablecoins. Japan's central bank announced plans to conduct trials for blockchain-based settlements. Significant project launches highlight the trend of traditional finance moving on-chain. A coalition of 12 EU banks, named Qivalis, plans to launch a MiCA-compliant euro stablecoin in the second half of the year. Germany's AllUnity expanded its offerings with a Swiss franc-pegged stable币, CHFAU. The Canadian government, alongside TD Bank, successfully piloted a C$100 million blockchain bond. In payments, Visa and Stripe are planning to expand their stable币 card issuance to over 100 countries. Western Union partnered with Crossmint to launch its USDPT stable币 on Solana. Funding activity remained strong. ARQ raised $70 million to expand its stablecoin-based financial applications in Latin America. QFEX secured $9.5 million in seed funding to launch a high-leverage RWA trading platform. Tether made a strategic investment in Axiym to integrate USDT into compliant payment networks. The European Central Bank issued a warning that widespread stable币 adoption, particularly of those pegged to foreign currencies like the USD, could pose significant risks to monetary policy and the banking system. Analysis from TD Cowen suggested that banks might lose the political battle over stable币 yield payments, though prolonged debate could jeopardize broader crypto legislation in the U.S.
