Bloomberg: Assisting Turkey in Freezing $1 Billion in Assets, Tether Is Reshaping Compliance Boundaries

On January 30, Turkish authorities froze over $500 million in assets linked to Veysel Sahin, who is accused of operating an illegal gambling platform and money laundering. The operation was executed by an unnamed cryptocurrency company, later revealed to be Tether Holdings SA, the issuer of the $185 billion stablecoin USDT. Tether has been cooperating with global law enforcement agencies to combat crypto-related crimes, including money laundering and sanctions evasion. Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino stated that the company follows legal procedures when assisting authorities, including the U.S. Department of Justice and FBI. The freeze is part of a broader Turkish operation that has seized over $1 billion in assets. A second individual under investigation for similar charges had an additional $500 million in crypto assets frozen, though it is unclear if Tether tokens were involved. According to Elliptic, Tether and its competitor Circle have blacklisted approximately 5,700 wallets holding around $2.5 billion in assets, with three-quarters of them containing USDT. Tether claims to have assisted law enforcement in 62 countries, freezing $3.4 billion in USDT tied to illicit activities. This marks a significant shift from Tether’s earlier conflicts with U.S. regulators, including a 2021 settlement over misrepresenting reserves. The company has recently re-entered the U.S. market with a compliant stablecoin, USAT, and has gained recognition for its cooperation with authorities. Despite this, USDT continues to face scrutiny for its use in criminal activities, including a recent case involving $1 billion in money laundering and reports of Iran’s central bank using USDT to evade sanctions.

From 24 to 1 to 5: YC No Longer Invests in Crypto, But Crypto Hasn't Disappeared

The article analyzes Y Combinator's shifting investment focus in crypto-related startups, highlighting a transition from direct crypto infrastructure to applications leveraging crypto as an underlying utility. Key data shows YC's crypto investments peaked in 2022 with 44 companies (e.g., DeFi protocols, NFT infrastructure), then sharply declined to just 1 in Summer 2024. The Winter 2026 batch includes 5 crypto-related companies, but they represent a fundamental shift: none are building traditional crypto products like chains or protocols. Instead, they focus on practical solutions where crypto is invisible to end-users. Examples include Unifold (Stripe-like API for crypto deposits), SpotPay (stablecoin-based neobank for cross-border payments), and Sequence Markets (execution engine for digital assets). Two notable projects are highlighted: Orthogonal, building a payment gateway for AI agents using crypto for machine-to-machine microtransactions, and Forum, creating a regulated "attention exchange" to trade quantified cultural focus, potentially involving tokenization. YC's recent Request for Startups (RFS) guidance confirms this trend, explicitly prioritizing "stablecoin financial services" and "new financial primitives" over generic crypto/Web3 themes. The author concludes that YC is no longer investing in crypto for its own sake, but in companies using crypto as a tool to solve real problems—often without users realizing it. This signals a maturation where crypto's value lies in becoming embedded infrastructure for other industries, particularly AI and finance, rather than a standalone ecosystem.

Q4 Net Loss of $667 Million, Yet Stock Soars 16%, Don't Buy Coinbase Now

Coinbase reported a net loss of $667 million in Q4 2025, with revenue of $1.78 billion falling short of expectations. Despite this, its stock surged 16.46% the next day, reflecting short-term market optimism. However, analysts caution against investing in Coinbase at this time, citing high cyclicality and near-term headwinds. Revenue is split between transaction-based income (56%) and subscription/services (44%). Transaction revenue relies heavily on retail trading spreads, which are under pressure due to declining crypto prices and reduced volatility. Subscription revenue, led by USDC interest income and staking, offers diversification but remains sensitive to interest rates and market conditions. Key debates include whether Coinbase can reduce its dependence on crypto market cycles, the sustainability of stablecoin profits, and the impact of future regulations. While the company holds a dominant position in the U.S. market due to its regulatory compliance and trust, it faces growing competition from decentralized exchanges globally. Analysts project underperformance in 2026, with earnings potentially 14% below consensus due to compressed client assets and trading activity. Although regulatory clarity may benefit Coinbase long-term, it is unlikely to offset immediate financial pressures. Valuation scenarios range from a negative IRR in a bear case to a high IRR in an optimistic rebound, but near-term risks currently outweigh potential returns.
