World unveiled a major upgrade to its World ID system, pitching it as “full-stack proof of human” infrastructure to verify real people across consumer apps, enterprises and AI agents without exposing personal data.



The rollout includes new features, partnerships with Tinder, Zoom and Docusign and tools for AI agents, while continuing to rely on Orb biometric verification, a system that has drawn criticism from some over its use of iris scanning.

world, the Sam Altman-backed digital identity project, has unveiled on Friday what it calls its most significant upgrade yet to World ID, positioning the system as “full-stack proof of human” infrastructure aimed at consumers, enterprises and AI agents.

The overhaul, announced at an event in San Francisco, comes as concerns mount across the tech industry over bots, deepfakes and AI agents impersonating humans online, a trend World is explicitly targeting with a broader push into authentication, payments and internet services. Altman's other major project is OpenAI, the firm behind ChatGPT and tools using the large language model AI platform.

Unexpected Statements from Iran in the U.S.-Iran War – “Under the Current Circumstances, the Strait of Hormuz Cannot Remain Open”


As diplomatic talks continue regarding a possible agreement in the ongoing conflict between Iran and the US, noteworthy new statements have emerged from Tehran.

Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf strongly criticized the US administration’s rhetoric and sent clear messages regarding the ongoing disputes over the Strait of Hormuz.

Ghalibaf intensified his criticism of Washington, arguing that all seven claims made by US President Trump in a short period of time were “false.” The Iranian official explicitly stated that the Strait of Hormuz would not remain open if the current naval blockade continued.

Ghalibaf also stated that passage through the strait would not be entirely free, arguing that ship traffic would only take place via “designated routes” and “with Iran’s permission.”

On the other hand, developments throughout the day increased uncertainty on the ground. Although Iranian Foreign Ministry officials stated that the strait was open, it was reported that 10 to 20 ships attempted to pass through, but the vast majority turned back. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) reportedly maintained that the strait was still closed.

According to diplomatic sources, the Tehran administration informed mediators that it would restrict ship passage and impose certain fees during the ceasefire process. Iran also categorically denied allegations that it would transfer enriched uranium to the United States.

Another development regarding the negotiations has emerged from Tehran. According to information based on sources close to Iran, the Iranian government has not yet reached an agreement with the US on the next planne

Ripple prepares to release almost $1.5 billion of XRP in less than 2 weeks

Ripple is set to unlock 1 billion XRP from its escrow contracts on May 1, continuing a monthly release program established in 2017.

At the time, the company placed 55 billion XRP into cryptographically secured escrow on the XRP Ledger to improve transparency and predictability around supply. 

Under this mechanism, 1 billion XRP becomes available at the start of each month. The structured approach was designed to address concerns about Ripple’s large holdings and to avoid sudden market shocks.

Now, the May release is another routine step in a schedule expected to run through at least 2027, as the escrowed balance gradually declines. 

With XRP currently trading at $1.47, the upcoming unlock carries a notional value of about $1.47 billion, though the actual figure will vary with price movements.

While closely watched for potential supply impact, historical patterns show that most of the unlocked XRP does not enter circulation immediately. 

In this line, Ripple typically re-locks 60% to 80% of the tokens into new escrow contracts. In recent months, including March and April 2026, about 700 million XRP were re-escrowed, leaving roughly 200 to 300 million XRP for operational use such as partnerships, liquidity provision, and ecosystem development.

This re-locking trend has helped limit net additions to circulating supply, meaning monthly unlocks have generally had minimal immediate market impact.

Crypto Winter Is Coming, Says CoinGecko

The cryptocurrency market extended its decline in Q1 2026, transitioning into what CoinGecko describes as a sustained “crypto winter,” with total market capitalization falling 20.4% to $2.4 trillion.

According to the recent report, the $622 billion contraction marks a second consecutive quarterly decline, leaving the market roughly 45% below its October 2025 peak.

Much of the downturn occurred between mid-January and early February, coinciding with the nomination of Kevin Warsh as the next Federal Reserve Chair, signaling a potentially more hawkish monetary policy environment.

Market decline meets flight to stability

While the broader market weakened, stablecoins showed resilience. Total stablecoin market capitalization rose slightly by $1.6 billion to $309.9 billion, reinforcing their role as a liquidity anchor during periods of volatility.

Tether, however, recorded its first notable supply decline since Q2 2022, falling 1.6% to $184.1 billion, though it maintained a dominant 59% market share.

The divergence highlights a broader shift in capital allocation, with investors moving toward lower-risk assets while reducing exposure to more volatile segments of the market.

In terms of trading activity, Solana remained the leading chain for spot trading during the quarter, holding a 30.6% share despite a 26.5% drop in volume.

However, momentum shifted toward Ethereum in March, with Ethereum overtaking Solana to capture a 27% share compared to Solana’s 26%.

The United Nations children's agency UNICEF has expressed outrage following the fatal shooting of two contracted truck drivers who were delivering clean water to families in the Gaza Strip. The deadly incident occurred on Friday morning at the Mansoura water filling point in northern Gaza — a critical supply source for Gaza City residents — when Israeli fire struck the humanitarian convoy. Two additional workers sustained injuries in the attack.In response, UNICEF immediately suspended all operations at the site and issued an urgent call for Israeli authorities to launch a full investigation. The agency emphasized that under international humanitarian law, civilian aid workers, non-combatants, and essential water infrastructure must be protected at all times, regardless of ongoing military operations. Israel's embassy in Washington had not issued a response at the time of reporting.The attack comes amid a fragile ceasefire between Israel and Hamas that was established in October, effectively halting two years of full-scale military conflict. Despite the truce, Israeli forces continue to maintain control over a largely depopulated buffer zone covering more than half of the Gaza Strip, while Hamas retains authority over the remaining narrow coastal territory. The ceasefire has been repeatedly strained, with both sides accusing each other of violations.Since the ceasefire took effect, local medical sources report that more than 750 Palestinians have been killed, while Palestinian militants have claimed the lives of four Israeli soldiers. The continued violence raises serious concerns about the safety of humanitarian missions operating in the region and the broader protection of civilians caught in the conflict.International organizations continue to urge all parties to uphold their obligations under international humanitarian law and ensure the uni

Ethereum is slowly gaining mainstream momentum as the financial domain prepares itself to move on chain. ETH is now being debated as the core blockchain powering the era of tokenization, with Raoul Paul, CEO of Real Vision, sharing how Ethereum is set to become a leading banking icon for the financial world to pursue very soon.Also Read: Ethereum Current Zone Mirrors Conditions Before Past RalliesRaoul Paul Bets On Ethereum: Here’s WhySource: UnsplashRaoul Paul, CEO of Real Vision, in an interview with Danny Ryan and Vivek Raman, talked about the multitude of benefits of banking going on-chain with Ethereum leading the way for this change to manifest in its entirety. Paul was quick to share updates stating how Ethereum is multichain, multicompliant, and perfect for accommodating banking needs.“I had to learn the truth. We’ve worked for a decade to make sure Ethereum is resilient, multi-client, distributed across the world, and has 100% uptime. And I had no idea until I talked to the banks: I’ve found a customer of decentralization. They just don’t know it. They care about uptime. And They care about resilience. They care about the thing that’s been around for the longest. They care about the thing that no one can turn off. You just have to translate the language to them. And yes, the ‘no one gets fired for picking Microsoft’ dynamic is very real, and it’s in Ethereum’s favor.”Moreover, this isn’t the first time that Ethereum has been chosen as a perfect crypto to host Wall Street. Fundstrat’s Tom Lee had been stating this vision out loud, claiming how ETH is worth the business. It’s because Ethereum leverages smart contracts and tokenization, making it a holistic chain to onboard the next stage of web3 finance."WALL STREET WANTS TO TOKENIZE EVERYTHING"—Tom LeeWall Street isn't just watching crypto anymore; major institutions like BlackRock and J

A short-selling campaign targeting Wall Street's "tax avoidance business" is now aimed at a multi-billion dollar asset management giant.

According to a recent letter to investors obtained by Bloomberg, short-selling firm Orso Partners has established a short position in Affiliated Managers Group (AMG). AMG is an investment firm managing $813 billion, and its holdings include AQR Capital Management, founded by Cliff Asness.

Orso's logic is straightforward: AQR's core growth engine in recent years-its tax optimization strategy is facing a direct threat from tightening regulations. Once regulations are implemented, AMG's profits will be the first to be affected.

Following the report, AMG's stock price fell as much as 1.7% to $294.28 that day, completely erasing its earlier 2.9% intraday gain.
