Yankees Legend Sends Rafael Devers Message Amid Giants Struggles

The New York Yankees earned a sweep in their last series and it provided some momentum that theyll want to carry on as they wrap up the first half of a critical season.　　After bringing back most of its roster from last year, the Yankees face as much pressure as ever to capture a World Series championship. And that could motivate another round of aggressive additions at the midseason trade deadline.　　“It‘s clear the Yankees will be approaching deadline season as buyers,” Anthony Franco wrote for MLB Trade Rumors. They’ve built a strong cushion in the Wild Card picture and are probably still the favorites in the division.　　The Yankees could target some bullpen help, another outfielder or even some upgrades around the infield. But one player they certainly wont express any interest in is former nemesis Rafael Devers, who enjoyed some big moments against the Yankees as a member of the Boston Red Sox.　　New York Yankees Legend Reggie Jackson Sends Rafael Devers Message As San Francisco Giants Struggle　　Though Devers has been one of the most productive sluggers in his career, he has struggled mightily since joining the San Francisco Giants before last years trade deadline.

Paxos wins SEC approval to clear U.S. stocks on blockchain

Paxos Securities Settlement Company, LLC (PSSC) has received full registration to provide clearing and settlement services by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).　　Stablecoin issuer Paxos said the regulatory milestone makes its subsidiary the first blockchain firm authorized to operate as a central securities depository (CSD) for traditional equities in the U.S., positioning it alongside legacy post-trade frameworks like the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC).　　The approval clears a bottleneck for Paxos‘ goals for institutional tokenization of real-world assets (RWAs), providing market participants with a pipeline to clear and settle digital asset trades involving traditional equities, per SEC’s response to Paxos on March 11.　　Paxos, which already holds licenses from the OCC in the U.S., Singapore‘s MAS, and Europe’s FIN-FSA. said the central clearinghouse designation also allows it to bundle regulated stock clearing with its existing white-label infrastructure tools used by PayPal and Mastercard.　　The SEC first granted Paxos no-action relief in 2019, allowing the firm to develop a live settlement pilot in February 2020, which allowed it to integrate traditional finance (TradFi) giants such Bank of America, Credit Suisse and Societe Generale to clear daily U.S. equities transitions.　　Paxos newly registered status enables it to bypass legacy settlement infrastructure entirely.

107 Dormant Bitcoin Sent to Burn Address in $8.3M Onchain Mystery

According to on-chain reports, the wallets had been dormant for about 11 years. When the coins were last active around 2015, Bitcoin traded near $314. At that time, the 107 BTC was worth roughly $33,700.　　At recent prices near $75,000 to $78,000, the same coins were valued at more than $8 million. That sharp change gives the burn added weight, as the owner destroyed assets that had gained heavily over the past decade.　　Related: Anonymous Plaintiff Legal Claim to Dormant Bitcoin a Lost Course—Experts　　Burn Address Balance Climbs　　Galaxy Research data showed the May 25 burn occurred at block 950,962. The transfers came from five sender wallets, with some inputs linked to 2014-vintage coins, 2015–2019 coins, and newer 2026 coins.　　The largest sender moved 36.79 BTC, while other wallets sent 28.80 BTC, 20.03 BTC, 20.01 BTC, and 1.42 BTC. Together, the transactions pushed the known burn address above 807 BTC.　　That balance is now worth about $60 million at current market prices. The address has accumulated coins over the years through irreversible transfers, including intentional burns, mistakes, and other unexplained activity.　　An older post from 2021 also noted that more than one million Bitcoins had become unavailable during 2020, while only a smaller share of the supply

Paxos Wins SEC Clearing Agency Registration

Blockchain infrastructure platform and stablecoin issuer Paxos said it has become the first “blockchain-native” firm that the US Securities and Exchange Commission has granted registration as a clearing agency.　　Paxos said on Thursday that its subsidiary, Paxos Securities Settlement Company, has become “the only blockchain-native firm” that the SEC approved to provide clearing and settlement services as a central securities depository in the US.　　The approval represents a “critical piece of financial market infrastructure” as blockchain technology and traditional capital markets continue to converge, the company added.　　Clearing agencies ensure securities trades are executed cleanly. Stock buyers and sellers do not trade directly and need clearing and settlement providers that verify the trade, match the buyer and seller, and then ensure the actual exchange of money and securities happens correctly.　　A registered, SEC-approved blockchain clearinghouse removes barriers for banks and brokerages to build crypto-based infrastructure.　　In October 2019, the SEC issued a no-action letter allowing Paxos to pilot a blockchain-based settlement service for US equities, and the service launched in February 2020.　　Paxos said the pilot demonstrated that blockchain-based post-trade infrastructure could deliver same-day settlement, reduce costs and improve operational efficiency within a fully regulated framework.　　“Our clearing agency registration is the result of seven years of

Investors, labels buy into growing South Asian music business in U.S.

When music strategist Anjula Acharia began launching superstar actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas into Hollywood in the early 2000s, her label partner Jimmy Iovine — the name behind pop sensations such as Eminem and Lady Gaga — told her she was 20 years too early to bring South Asian talent to the U.S.　　Now, Acharia is the founder and CEO of 5 Junction, a joint label with focused specifically on investing in South Asian artists in the U.S.　　“That sounded crazy, to think we were 20 years too early, but now, 20 years later, with the explosion of people like Diljit Dosanjh and Karan Aujla … theres all these South Asian acts that are coming here and really selling out, particularly in the live arena,” Acharia told CNBC.　　The South Asian music market in the U.S. has remained largely untapped, but as music becomes more globalized, as with the success of K-pop and Latin acts, South Asian talent is making a case to investors as the next big business opportunity, Acharia said.　　Global music revenues are reaching all-time highs, surpassing $30 billion in 2025, according to the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry. said last year that streams of Indian artists in international markets grew

Sui Network Restarts After 6 Hour Outage

Sui Network is back online after a nearly six-hour outage on Thursday, which it attributed to a bug introduced by an update, marking the layer-1 blockchains second period of downtime in 2026.　　Sui posted to X on Thursday that activity on its mainnet had resumed after “a halt due to a crash bug in the gas charging logic introduced by the 1.72 release. A full incident review will be shared in the coming days.”　　Sui had earlier shared that the blockchain was “experiencing a network stall” and said that transactions could be paused until a fix is rolled out.　　The outage lasted 5 hours and 55 minutes, according to the networks status indicator. Sui mainnet validators are still listed as having “degraded performance.”　　It is the second outage of the Sui blockchain this year, following a similar incident in January where the network was knocked offline for more than six hours. Another incident occurred in November 2024, when all validators were stuck in a crash loop for around two and a half hours, preventing transactions from being processed.　　Sui is the 13th-largest blockchain by total value locked at $542 million and hosts 137 protocols, according to analytics platform DefiLlama.　　Sui token drops 6.6% before recovery　　The Sui

Sui Network Hits Third Transaction Halt in 48-Hour Outage Wave

The Sui team acknowledged this issue on social media, stating that their mainnet was experiencing a “network stall” and that it was looking for a solution. “Be aware that transactions may be paused at this time. Updates will be shared as soon as they are available,” they posted.　　At 11:34 AM EDT, the network was processing transactions again, with Sui‘s team explaining that both today’s and yesterdays problems were linked to the “ gas charging logic” changes that the blockchain recently applied to make stablecoin transactions free.　　“Yesterdays implemented fix was an interim measure designed to restore functionality to the network while the Sui Core Team worked on a long-term solution. The interim fix had a known issue with a low probability of causing a halt. This morning, the network hit a variant of the known issue and halted,” Sui explained, stressing that network activity had resumed.　　X user 0xarthur.sui alleged that while the first network stall was likely due to a design defect, this second one was perpetrated by a threat actor. “A hacker likely opened short positions in advance, just to make Sui crash,” he declared.　　In addition, he believes the fix for the problems was vibe-coded with AI and applied. “For
