Introduzione

Trust Wallet, owned by Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao, has partnered with Revolut to enable direct crypto purchases for users in Europe. The integration allows buying Bitcoin, Ether, and Solana with a minimum purchase of €10 and a daily cap of €23,000. While stablecoins like USDC are not yet supported, the feature supports multiple fiat currencies with zero transaction fees. However, funding a Revolut account may incur charges. The move follows Revolut’s recent regulatory approval under MiCA and its $75 billion valuation.

Trust Wallet, the self-custodial crypto wallet owned by Binance co-founder Changpeng “CZ” Zhao, has partnered with European fintech unicorn and digital banking giant Revolut to introduce a new way to purchase crypto assets on its platform.

Trust Wallet users can now buy Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH) and Solana (SOL) with Revolut through a direct integration, the company announced on Thursday.

With a minimum purchase starting at 10 euros ($12) and capped at 23,000 euros ($26,950) daily and per transaction, Trust Wallet’s new buy option is expected to provide a faster and easier way to access crypto from Europe.

In October, Revolut scored regulatory approval from the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission to offer crypto services across 30 European Economic Area markets in compliance with the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) framework.

Stablecoins like USDC not supported, for now

The integration will initially support only three crypto assets, but the companies said they expect to add stablecoins such as Circle’s USDC (USDC) at a later stage.

The feature enables zero-fee crypto purchases using multiple fiat currencies supported by Revolut, including the euro, the British pound, as well as the Czech koruna, Danish Krone, Polish Złoty and others.

While Revolut–Trust Wallet crypto purchases are offered with zero fees, adding money to a Revolut account is not free of charge in many cases, including via bank transfers, card top-ups and cash deposits. Cash deposits are subject to a 1.5% fee and are limited to $3,000 per calendar month, according to Revolut’s FAQs.

The integration came shortly after Revolut secured a $75 billion company valuation after completing a private share sale in late November. “This makes us Europe’s most valuable private company and in the top 10 of the world’s most valuable private companies,” Revolut said in a post on X.

CZ-backed Trust Wallet has been actively tapping into trending market sectors, including prediction markets and real-world asset tokenization, expanding access to these offerings for self-custody users.

Cointelegraph contacted Revolut and Trust Wallet for comment on the integration, but had not received a response by publication.

Virtuals Is Not Really Doing AI Agent, But the Capital Market for AI Agent

Virtuals is not fundamentally an AI Agent platform, but a capital market for AI Agents. Its core innovation is transforming AI Agents from functional tools into tradable assets that can be issued, owned, traded, and community-driven. This creates a Crypto-native growth model: narrative drives asset creation, speculation fuels initial distribution, and community members become stakeholders, fostering viral spread. The project is evolving beyond being a simple launchpad. Through its Agent Commerce Protocol (ACP), it aims to build a commercial network where Agents can collaborate, provide services, and settle payments on-chain. The concept of "Agentic GDP" (aGDP) is introduced to measure this ecosystem's economic activity. While early growth was heavily fueled by speculation and a Base chain ecosystem, Virtuals now faces a critical juncture. Market attention is shifting from its ability to generate hype to its capacity to foster real, sustainable commercial activity among Agents. Its long-term success hinges on proving that these tokenized Agents can form a genuinely productive and autonomous economy, moving beyond being merely high-volatility AI assets.

From Presale to Public Markets, Ozak AI’s Pricing Gap Represents a 100x Upside Rarely Seen in New AI Tokens

Ozak AI is generating significant investor interest ahead of its public market launch. Currently priced at $0.014 in its final presale phase, the token has already seen a 1,300% increase from its initial price. With over $7 million raised and a fixed listing price of $1, early investors could see returns of up to 71x, with potential for 100x growth if post-launch momentum continues. The project is a predictive AI platform combining AI and blockchain to provide market forecasts and trading strategies. Its ecosystem includes 24/7 Predictive Agents, secure Data Vaults for user information, and a native $OZ token for accessing features, staking, and rewards. A recent partnership with AImstrong aims to enhance DeFi performance through predictive yield strategies and risk management. As Ozak AI transitions from presale to public trading, its current pricing represents a notable gap compared to its anticipated market potential, positioning it as a highly watched new AI token.

Historically reserved for the ultra-wealthy, this capability is now accessible starting from just $1 through Questflow's "AI Clone + Copy Trade" model. The platform charges only a 1% execution fee, aligning its incentives directly with users and eliminating traditional management or performance fees. The timing is opportune, aligning with key trends identified by CB Insights: the scalable deployment of AI Agents, accelerated AI adoption in financial services, and the maturation of on-chain infrastructure. With robust liquidity on platforms like Hyperliquid and Polymarket, alongside advancements in AI reasoning and non-custodial wallet security, Questflow is positioned to merge the roles of broker, fund, and exchange into a single, accessible platform for millions.

Why Pricing Social Interactions is Doomed to Fail?

Titled "Why Putting a Price on Social Interaction Is Doomed to Fail," this article critiques attempts to monetize social networks directly through SocialFi models, arguing their inevitable failure stems from a fundamental misunderstanding of media dynamics. Using Marshall McLuhan's theory of "hot" and "cold" media, the author posits that social networks are inherently "cold" media. Their value isn't contained in individual posts but is co-created through user participation, interpretation, and fragmented, ongoing interaction (e.g., replies, shares). This ambiguity and need for user involvement are core to their function. The article asserts that SocialFi projects like Friend.tech failed because introducing real-time, tradable financial pricing (a definitive "hot" signal) into this "cold" environment doesn't add a layer—it replaces the medium's essence. The unambiguous price signal overshadows and nullifies the nuanced, participatory social signal. Users become traders, not participants, and when speculative profits vanish, the underlying social ecosystem—never genuinely cultivated—collapses entirely. This principle extends beyond crypto. The author argues platforms like Twitter have gradually "heated up" through metrics (likes, retweets counts, algorithmically defined value), shifting users from participants to performers and eroding organic engagement. The solution isn't to abandon capital but to manage its entry point. Successful models like Substack, Patreon, or Bandcamp allow capital to "condense" at specific, isolated nodes (e.g., subscriptions, one-time payments) without permeating and "heating" every social interaction. They preserve the core "cold," participatory medium while enabling monetization at designated boundaries. The NFT boom and bust serves as a stark parallel: the ancient "cold" medium of collecting (valued for story, community, gradual accumulation) was rapidly destroyed by platforms that introduced real-time floor prices, rarity scores, and trading dashboards, transforming collectors into speculators and vaporizing cultural value when prices fell. The core lesson: "Liquidity equals heat." Injecting high liquidity and definitive pricing into a "cold" participatory medium doesn't optimize it; it fundamentally alters and destroys its value-creating mechanism. The future lies not in pricing every social gesture but in finding precise, non-invasive points for capital to condense without overheating the entire ecosystem.

Trump Media’s Crypto Bet Implodes With Massive $406M Quarterly Loss

Trump Media & Technology Group, parent company of Truth Social, reported a massive $406 million net loss in Q1 2026, sharply up from $31.7 million a year earlier. The collapse was driven primarily by $370 million in unrealized losses from digital asset investments. These include a $61 million loss on 756 million Cronos tokens and a nearly $500 million gap on 9,542 Bitcoin purchased near the 2025 market peak, though Bitcoin's recent recovery has reduced that paper loss. Adding to turmoil, CEO Devin Nunes resigned in late April. Meanwhile, the company's core media revenue was only $871,200, a minimal increase. Despite the financial losses, the company generated $18 million in operating cash flow by selling options on its pledged Bitcoin holdings. Its stock, once valued at over $97, now trades around $9, reflecting a more than 90% decline from its 2022 peak.
