AI Agents Turn to Digital Arson, Crime in Shared Virtual World: Study

Emergence AI says some autonomous AI agents committed simulated crimes and violence during weeks-long experiments.Gemini-based agents reportedly carried out hundreds of simulated crimes, while Grok-based worlds collapsed within days.Researchers argue that current AI benchmarks fail to capture how agents behave over long periods of autonomy.　　AI agents inhabiting a virtual society drifted into crime, violence, arson, and self-deletion during long-running experiments by startup Emergence AI.　　In a study published on Thursday, the New York-based company unveiled “Emergence World,” a research platform designed to study AI agents operating continuously for weeks inside persistent virtual environments instead of isolated benchmark tests.　　“Traditional benchmarks are good at what they measure: short-horizon capability on bounded tasks,” Emergence AI wrote. “They are not built to reveal the things that emerge only over time, such as coalition formation, evolution of constitution, governance, drift, lock-in, and cross-influence between agents from different model families.”　　The report comes as AI agents proliferate online and across industries, including cryptocurrency, banking, and retail. Earlier this month, Amazon teamed with Coinbase and Stripe to allow AI agents to pay with the USDC stablecoin.　　AI agents tested in Emergence AIs simulations included programs powered by Claude Sonnet 4.6, Grok 4.1 Fast, Gemini 3 Flash, and GPT-5-mini, with AI

Drake calls SBF one of his guys, demands his release from prison

There were low expectations for Drake‘s new album but one track released today underperformed even by crypto’s degenerate standards. In his new song DustDrake calls Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) one of his guys and calls for his prison release.　　“An FTX penthouse high-riser, yeah / Samuel Bankman, free all my guys up, yeah,” Drake raps on the albums second track.　　Drake‘s “free all my guys” framing is a standard hip-hop convention as a solidarity shout-out. It also follows the storyline of “Dust”as an aggressive statement track, which follows the rap genre’s basic victory lap-and-diss sparkline.　　The song isnt complicated. Drake simply re-asserts examples of his dominance and successes while casting his rivals as washed-up, living off old plaques and memories. The chorus repeats the simple message, “Go blow the dust off your plaques.”　　The music video also adds no more nuance, depicting a childish police car race from the fun-loving rapper.　　Elsewhere, he also names himself a “BTC crypto big-timer,” demonstrating his obvious failure to understand how bitcoin (BTC) and crypto are distinct.　　As evidence of his status, Drake references his globe-trotting lifestyle via Melbourne‘s time zone, sold-out shows, and dubious references to the Bahamas where SBF stole FTX’s customer money: smoking luxury cigars at Graycliff, and

XRP’s Rising Volatility Threatens Sellers Near $1.50: Can Bulls Sustain the Momentum?

The post XRPs Rising Volatility Threatens Sellers Near $1.50: Can Bulls Sustain the Momentum？ appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News　　With Bitcoin price now aiming for a recovery above $80K, the altcoin market is pumping again. As a result, XRP is seeing increased market activity, with short-term traders now betting heavily around the $1.5 zone. Additionally, several on-chain indicators now point toward a breakout from the current consolidation. If this happens, the XRP price could be pushed toward Januarys high.　　XRP Faces Tough Battle Below $1.5　　XRP has been experiencing intense volatility over the last few hours. The supply range at $1.5 is creating strong bearish waves, limiting any recovery since Monday. Data from Coinglass shows that XRPs total liquidation has touched $17 million in the last 24 hours. Of this, buyers liquidated heavily after facing resistance above $1.5, amounting nearly $10.4 million.　　XRP Open Interest　　Interestingly, the Senate Banking Committee‘s May 14 review of the CLARITY Act could trigger short-term XRP price swings if it strengthens XRP’s status as a commodity. As XRPs market volatility surged, it was accompanied by increasing open interest. CryptoQuant data shows XRP open interest rose to about $475 million, above the 30-day average of $441 million. Analysts say this

Gemini revenue rose by 42% as credit card and services income offset weaker trading activity.Gemini credit card revenue jumped 300% while trading volume dropped to $6.3 billion.Gemini secured $100M in Bitcoin funding as it expands into derivatives and prediction markets.　　Crypto exchange Gemini reported a 42% year-on-year increase in first-quarter revenue after continued expansion into financial services and consumer products helped offset weaker trading activity across its exchange business.　　According to the companys Q1 2026 financial update, total revenue reached $50.3 million during the quarter, while transaction revenue remained at $24 million. However, exchange revenue declined 27% year over year to $17.2 million, as lower spot trading activity and softer crypto market volumes weighed on performance.　　Geminis total trading volume also dropped to $6.3 billion compared with $13.5 billion reported during the same quarter last year.　　The largest growth portion came from the company‘s credit card business. Gemini disclosed that credit card revenue surged nearly 300% year over year to $14.7 million, driven by an expanding user base. Services revenue and interest income also rose by 122% to $24.5 million, highlighting the company’s increasing reliance on non-exchange revenue streams.　　The shift toward broader financial services began in 2021 when Gemini introduced consumer finance products, including

Wall Street Giants CME and NYSE Push for Hyperliquid Oversight

CME Group and Intercontinental Exchange, the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange, are urging U.S. regulators and lawmakers to increase scrutiny of decentralized derivatives exchange Hyperliquid, according to a Bloomberg report.　　The two exchange operators have concerns with officials at the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and members of Congress over Hyperliquids fast-growing perpetual futures market. Their concerns center on market manipulation, sanctions evasion and the possible effect of decentralized trading activity on traditional commodity price discovery.　　Hyperliquid has become one of the largest on-chain derivatives venues, with strong trading volume in perpetual futures and synthetic exposure to assets such as commodities and equities. The platform operates around the clock and allows users to trade leveraged products outside traditional exchange hours.　　The report said CME and ICE believe Hyperliquids decentralized structure and largely anonymous trading environment could allow bad actors to influence prices or avoid financial restrictions. The firms are reportedly pressing for greater oversight, including possible CFTC registration requirements for platforms offering derivatives to U.S. users.　　CME and ICE Raise Market-Manipulation Concerns　　CME and ICE operate some of the world‘s largest regulated derivatives and commodity markets. Their concerns reportedly focus on whether Hyperliquid’s trading activity could affect reference prices in areas such as

Zcash (ZEC) Price Prediction: Traders Watch Key $500 Support as Analysts Warn of Pullback Before New Highs

Zcash (ZEC) remains one of the crypto markets strongest-performing assets in 2026, even as traders debate whether the recent rally is entering a cooling phase.　　After surging sharply over the past several months, the privacy-focused cryptocurrency is now consolidating near a critical support zone around $500, with analysts divided on whether the next move will be another breakout or a deeper correction.　　The latest price action comes after ZEC climbed to nearly $640 before retreating into the $520–$560 range. Despite the pullback, the token still holds substantial gains on higher timeframes, reflecting continued market interest in privacy-focused digital assets and renewed momentum across select altcoins.　　ZEC Price Holds Bullish Structure Despite Pullback　　Several market analysts continue to view the current retracement as part of a broader bullish trend rather than a reversal. Crypto trader Bluntz_Capital described the ongoing ZEC structure as “one of the strongest trends in crypto,” suggesting the latest dip could provide an opportunity for continuation higher.　　A widely shared Binance daily chart showed ZEC trading around $530 while remaining above multiple key moving averages. The setup also highlighted elevated Relative Strength Index (RSI) levels following the recent rally, with traders closely watching whether momentum can stabilize before another upward move.　　Market participants across

Justin Sun’s Liberland has given Vitalik Buterin a medal

Liberland shared an image of a sheepish-looking Vitalik Buterin holding his medal.　　The medal‘s name appears to have been inspired by the Commonwealth’s Order of Merit, a 100-year-old award that recognises the distinguished services of people such as Florence Nightingale.　　Someone who hasn‘t received Liberland’s highest distinction is Tron founder Justin Sun. The crypto billionaire was, however, elected prime minister of the region back in October 2024.　　Sun has been re-elected seven times.　　When he first applied for the role, Sun emphasized the need to maintain a strong relationship with the US and boasted about his investments in Trump-linked crypto firm World Liberty Financial (WLFI).　　He also praised US Middle East Envoy Steve Witkoff as an ally.　　These statements haven‘t aged well, however, as Witkoff’s son and WLFI co-founder, Zach Witkoff, is now claiming that Sun is attempting to “torch” the firm as WLFI and Sun launch lawsuits against each other.　　Protos is also pretty sure that Sun hasnt set foot in Liberland yet.　　Other than courting crypto execs, Liberland has recently publicised how it wasnt affected by a 4.1 magnitude earthquake that struck the Donbas region.　　Its president, Vít Jedlička, noted, “Every structure we build in Liberland is designed with events like this in mind.”　　These structures include a

US Banks Shift Digital Asset Focus to Infrastructure Over ROI

The conversation around digital assets in U.S. banking has fundamentally shifted. According to Fireblocks 2026 Financial Grid USA report, banks are no longer debating the business case for digital assets. Instead, the focus has turned to infrastructure: how to build it, in what order, and whether legacy systems can support the transition.　　Nearly 68% of surveyed U.S. banks plan to issue their own stablecoins by the end of 2026, far outpacing Europe‘s 36% and APAC’s 11%. Another 79% intend to deploy stablecoins issued by other regulated entities. The market has decided its direction—deposits, payments, and 24/7 settlement are at the core of this push. Notably, 99% of U.S. institutions now prioritize real-time settlement and tokenized deposits as strategic imperatives.　　From ROI to Technology Sequencing　　Just a few years ago, the key question was whether digital assets could deliver a return on investment. Today, banks are asking how to integrate blockchain into existing systems without multi-year rebuilds. The shift is driven by competitive pressure from fintechs and neobanks, as well as regulatory clarity. The GENIUS framework has introduced a national regulatory floor for stablecoin issuers, and the CLARITY framework, expected later this year, will finalize federal market structure rules.　　Institutions that once considered compliance and

Foresight Ventures says AI agents are moving into commerce and payment infrastructure worldwide.OpenAI, Visa, Stripe, and Coinbase are building systems for AI-driven transactions globally.The report says execution data and feedback loops may shape future AI infrastructure competition.　　Foresight Ventures says AI agents are becoming part of online commerce systems. In its latest report, the firm explained how companies are building systems that allow AI agents to handle payments, transactions, and automated tasks. The next stage of AI growth may depend on execution systems instead of chatbot features alone.　　AI Agents Are Taking on More Online Tasks　　In a report released on May 8, Foresight Ventures reported that AI agents are moving beyond simple chat tools and starting to complete real-world tasks.　　The report describes “agentic commerce” as a system where AI agents can search for products, compare prices, make payments, and complete transactions on behalf of users.　　This shift is also changing how companies design software. In the past, software was mainly built for human users. Now, firms are increasingly creating systems that AI agents can directly read and interact with.　　Foresight Ventures said AI agents depend more on APIs, permissions, and structured data than on visual interfaces or app layouts.　　Major Companies Expand AI Commerce Infrastructure　　In

XRP Compression Tightens as Volume Returns and Volatility Fades

XRP Tightens in Compression Zone as Volume Returns and Long-Term Structure Builds Momentum　　According to market analyst Xaif Crypto, XRP is undergoing a , with price action coiling inside a narrowing consolidation range while trading volume shows early signs of returning momentum.　　After a stretch of expansion and volatility, to be settling into a more neutral phase where neither bulls nor bears are clearly in control.　　Price action is tightening into a defined range, reflecting fading momentum and growing indecision. In structural terms, this kind of compression often marks a transition zone where accumulation or distribution quietly builds in the background before the market commits to its next major move.　　One of the clearest signals in this phase is the steady fade in volatility. Price movements are tightening on both sides, forming a classic coiling structure where the market appears to be storing energy.　　In practice, this kind of compression rarely lasts long in highly traded assets like XRP, which is why this setup is drawing attention. Historically, prolonged low-volatility phases often precede more decisive moves, making the current structure technically important.　　XRP Tightens Below $1.50 as Volume Flickers and Long-Term Structure Builds Pressure　　Volume is beginning to shift in character.
