The remaining top nine holders include a mix of investment vehicles, mining companies, and exchanges, reflecting diverse motivations for holding the asset.　　Following Strategy, the next largest holders are Twenty-One Capital (43,514 $BTC), Metaplanet (43,000 $BTC), MARA Holdings (36,303 $BTC), and the Bitcoin Standard Treasury Company (30,021 $BTC).

AI agent development hasnt accelerated as expected, says Zuckerberg

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said AI agent development at the firm is progressing more slowly than expected, even as technology and crypto firms continue pouring resources into the nascent technology.　　In a company meeting on Thursday, Zuckerberg said the “trajectory of the agentic development over at least the last four months hasnt really accelerated in the way that we expected,” according to Reuters, which reviewed a recording of the call.　　The bet on agent adoption hasn‘t “come to fruition yet,” Zuckerberg said, adding that executives made an aggressive push into agentic infrastructure in January in part because of fears they weren’t moving “fast enough.”　　Despite the slower progress, Zuckerberg said he expects the firms AI investments to start paying off within the next three to six months.　　Zuckerbergs comments offer a reality check for technology and crypto firms betting that autonomous agents will soon become major users of blockchain payments. Meta, along with several crypto firms, has bet big on agentic AI, with many pivoting their business models to cater to autonomous AI agents.　　In May, Meta cut roughly 10% of its workforce and reassigned about 7,000 employees to AI-focused teams — a restructuring Zuckerberg acknowledged was not as clean as it could have been,

India's central bank revives push to isolate banks from crypto: Report

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) reportedly backed a containment strategy for digital assets to shield banks and other financial institutions from exposure to crypto and privately issued stablecoins, as lawmakers prepare a report on the countrys digital asset policy.　　According to a report by The Economic Times, RBI Deputy Governor Rohit Jain and Executive Director P. Vasudevan presented the central banks position to the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Finance on Thursday.　　In a background note submitted to the panel, the RBI reportedly said prohibition remained a recognized policy option and recommended preventing the use of crypto in payments and settlements while restricting banking-sector exposure.　　The central bank reportedly warned that applying traditional regulation to crypto could legitimize speculative assets and create a false perception of safety among users. However, it urged policymakers to distinguish crypto from tokenized government securities, corporate bonds and other regulated financial instruments so that restrictions would not hinder tokenization.　　Chainalysis 2025 Global Crypto Adoption Index.

Teen ‘Scattered Spider’ suspect extradited to US over $8M crypto ransom

A teenager suspected of involvement with the “Scattered Spider” hacking group has been extradited to the US over his alleged role in an $8 million crypto ransom.　　The US Justice Department said on Wednesday that Peter Stokes, a 19-year-old dual US-Estonian national, was arrested in Finland in April on an Interpol Red Notice and extradited to the US last week to appear in a Chicago federal court on Tuesday.　　A criminal complaint unsealed in court accused Stokes and others of breaching a luxury jewelry retailers computer system in May 2025 to steal data and demand a ransom payment of $8 million in crypto. The retailer managed to evict them from the network and did not pay the ransom, but suffered $2 million in disruption damages, according to the complaint.　　Stokes is one of the few arrests that authorities have tied to Scattered Spider, which often uses crypto ransoms. Ransomware actors received more than $820 million in payments last year, an 8% decline from 2024, even as attacks rose by 50%.　　An image the FBI took from Stokes Snapchat account shows him wearing a necklace that says “Hack the Planet,” a quote from the 1995 cult film “Hackers.” Source: US Department of Justice　　Alleged hack started
