Consequently, institutional investors appeared more confident in allocating capital, with large banking entities also began having exposure in XRP ETFs, too. This transition suggests XRP is increasingly viewed not merely as a speculative asset, but as a viable settlement layer within financial infrastructure.　　Ripple Treasury Platform and RLUSD Expand Institutional Use Cases　　Alongside ETF growth,

Warren and Wydens Questioning of Tethers Lutnick

Tech　　Warren and Wyden‘s Questioning of Tether’s Lutnick　　Democratic Senators Elizabeth Warren and Ron Wyden have cornered stablecoin giant Tether and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. In a letter sent to both this week, they put the loan Tether gave to a family foundation benefiting Lutnicks four children on the table. The senators, sensing a whiff of bribery, are asking whether this move was an attempt to influence Lutnick. Lutnick transitioned from Cantor Fitzgerald to the cabinet position in February 2025; his sons now manage the company. Ties between Tether and Cantor have been tight for years.　　Lutnick-Tether Ties and Ethical Issues　　Cantor Fitzgerald has been handling Tether‘s reserves since 2021. According to Bloomberg’s report last month, Lutnick transferred his shares in Cantor to his children‘s foundations at that exact time, and one of them took out a secret loan from Tether. Federal rules require asset sales for presidential appointments to prevent conflicts of interest; however, ethics experts say adding children to the foundations undermines this purpose. Warren and Wyden are drawing attention to whether Tether provided capital to Lutnick’s children for Cantor shares in exchange for an ownership stake.Main Conflict Points: Tether loan, Lutnicks cabinet position, and Cantor management.Federal Rule Violation: Suspicion of ethical

France Drops Self-Custody Reporting Mandate

The move, considered a victory for the French sector, comes after a heated debate as Deputy Daniel Labaronne proposed a motion to suppress the article, which failed. Labaronne argued that it would not be feasible for the agency to check the veracity of the information provided by taxpayers.　　Adan celebrated this outcome, stressing that they had been taking action since last November to defend their position before administrative bodies, government offices, and deputies, explaining that they supported strengthening the fight against fraud but were against creating an unworkable and risky obligation for taxpayers.　　The organization referred to the risks that French cryptocurrency holders face, as the country has become a hotbed for so-called “wrench attacks,” including violence as a means to force cryptocurrency holders to deliver their holdings to these attackers.　　High-profile industry figures, including Binances head in the country and　　Pavel Durov, founder and CEO of Telegram, directly linked the rise in these attacks to French officials selling data of crypto owners to criminals and massive tax database leaks, warning against the risks of giving the French government even more information about cryptocurrency holders than it already has.

CLARITY Act Faces Uncertain Future as GOP Senators Remain Divided

Senator Tom Tillis says the CLARITY Act is in the red zone and could head to committee markup in May, with a possible Senate floor move by June or July. pic.twitter.com/zfkqxNGFse　　— Coin Bureau (@coinbureau) April 30, 2026　　Tim Scott, who chairs the Senate Banking Committee, has established a requirement for complete Republican consensus among his committees 13 GOP members before scheduling a markup session. While he confirmed recent commitments from Sen. Thom Tillis and several colleagues, achieving unanimous party support remains elusive.　　In comments to Fox Business, Scott characterized negotiations as approaching the “red zone” for finalizing an agreement. His timeline envisions a bipartisan committee markup during May, potentially followed by floor consideration between June and July.　　Tillis, serving as a primary Republican negotiator, has formally requested Scott to calendar a markup session and indicated that revised legislative text should be available several days beforehand. However, Tillis has issued an ultimatum: he will vote against the measure if it advances from the Senate without incorporating ethics safeguards.　　John Kennedy stands among the Republicans withholding endorsement. Reporting from Punchbowl News indicates Kennedys resistance partially reflects broader dissatisfaction with the House and White House regarding a dormant Senate housing measure — extending beyond cryptocurrency policy itself.　　Ethical

EU bans exchanges with Russian crypto services in new sanctions

Crypto　　EU bans exchanges with Russian crypto services in new sanctions　　The European Unions 27-member states have adopted a 20th package of sanctions against Russia in response to its illegal invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and the ongoing conflict, including measures to prevent Russian sanctions circumvention via the digital asset space.　　In an April 23 article, the European Commission said it welcomed the sanctions targeted at Russias energy, finance, trade, and military complex, including a “total sectorial ban on carrying out exchanges with any Russian crypto asset service provider [CASP] as well as any decentralized platforms enabling crypto trading” that could be used to circumvent the measures.　　“This comprehensive package – spanning energy, finance, and trade – will further constrain Russias capacity to fund its brutal and illegal war,” said Maria Luís Albuquerque, Commissioner for Financial Services and the Savings and Investments Union. “It represents another decisive step in tackling sanctions evasion, targeting financial actors and infrastructure in third countries that enable circumvention.”　　She added that, as part of the package, “for the first time, we are activating our anti-circumvention instrument to block exports of critical EU goods to a third country used to undermine our measures.”　　Since Russias invasion of Ukraine, the former was
